Chapter 1: Reincarnation (1)

There are two areas in the entire plane of existence where life exists.

The Prime and the Cube Omniverse, are the two omniverses that coexist via each other.

The Cube Omniverse is called such because it is shaped like a cube, floating in the centre-most part of the Prime Omniverse.

The Cube is the personification of dreams and desires, the imagination that originates from the people living in the Prime Omniverse, which over time created an Omniverse that exists within this cube.

Usually, people can't leave and enter their own respective Omniverses. But that's not always the case, such as with "Strange Subject 799" here.

Sitting in a place called The Neutral Zone, which exists in-between the gate of Prime and Cube, in a room with walls painted with moving cosmos, Soul-799 stared at the only other person present here beside him.

'I died, she says.' Thought 799 as he looked at the fiery red-haired woman in front of him. 'A goddess? She's reading a book though. Can't she just consume the contents just by wishing to if she really is a goddess?'

He couldn't help but think, despite the more important fact that he had, apparently, died.

But it couldn't be helped, after all, 799 lacked most of his common sense right now because of the instability his soul experienced when he died, along with the fact that he went inside something called the 'Wheel of Purification' which erased most of his memories. All this seemed like a dream to his current shaken brain, that had his senses distorted. Though he could feel his senses return with every passing second.

"Are you done contemplating?" The self-proclaimed goddess said in a smooth but unsettled voice, raising her head to look at him with her eyes annoyed. "Look, I don't mind you taking the time of your life, I have been locked in this place too long to care but I would still prefer if I am left alone while reading. It doesn't feel good being gawked like that, you see."

"Ah… uh, I see." 799, his current shape that of a small floating blue ball, supposedly a soul, nodded. "If you don't mind talking for a bit… How did I die exactly? "

"Hmmm," the goddess tilted her head, nodding. "I don't mind conversing as long as you're not being annoying."

Her words were harsh, but 799 couldn't find himself disliking her. She had a certain charm to her, maybe because of her otherworldly beautiful look. Coupled with red hair and golden eyes, she had an unamused face as she talked.

"You were killed by being eaten whole by a shark. You were on a yacht, I won't reveal why, but at one point of your journey, you fell into the water right on the mouth of a shark. Oh, you may or may not have been pushed down, how amusing…" the Goddess said, squinting at her book as if all this was written in it. "Ohhh, this is… kind of interesting and sad."

Soul-799 was confused, fidgeting around. "So uh, I died being eaten by a shark? Must have been painful. I guess I am quite unlucky, huh. Sharks rarely ever attack humans and would much rather feed on fish and marine mammals, after all."

"...Hm?" The Goddess frowned at his words. "What? How do you know that? You're not supposed to have any memories regarding anything of your life, not even this."

The goddess' golden irises shone brightly as she looked at 799's soul before pausing and blinking. "...Ohh, your memories weren't entirely cleaned even after you came out of the Wheel of Purification. Maybe the machine is broken… Whatever, I will erase that bit of memory after we're done here."

She yawned, as 799's blue ball body paled, if that was even possible.

"Um, about that. Isn't this the type of situation where I am isekai'd into some kind of fictional world? Do you really have to erase my memory?" He asked, trying to be respectful even though all this seemed like a dream to him. "I can't remember much anyway, just this and that. Things that weren't related to my identity."

He could remember many animes, novels, and movies only, along with some random knowledge. Was it necessary to remove them?

"Yes, it is necessary. Don't question my judgement." The goddesses said in a no-nonsense tone, the sclera of her eyes turning black for a moment before they returned to normal white.

She explained, "Do you know why I called you Strange Subject 799? That's because you're the 799th soul in all of eternity to have entered the Cube from the Prime. I don't expect you to know what those are but anyway, but in short reincarnators of your background are such a pain that they cause trouble everywhere. That's why a few hundred millennia ago, it was made into a rule that souls from the Prime should have all their memories eradicated. The ones who reincarnated before this rule were annihilated later on, so don't try to be smart, mortal man."

The goddess finished with a threatening chuckle, flipping her page and starting to read again. "Anyway, I will remove your memory after we're done choosing a power and world for you. And no, you can't just choose any you wish, you'd simply roll a Fate Roluttee which will give you a power. It depends on your luck honestly on what you get, but I would suggest you hope you're not too lucky. Later on, you'd roll a World Wheel to choose your world."

She snapped her fingers just as a part of the wall painted by the galaxy shattered, revealing a huge roulette that 799 couldn't fathom the size of.

"Now go on, it will take a while for the roll to end. Let me enjoy myself in the meantime." She said, waving her hand off as she started to concentrate on her book again.

799 was pretty anxious about the memory erasure procedure. To him, a memory made a person, and even though he already lost all his valuable memories, he didn't want to lose the other parts.

Still, floating over, he stood under the enormous roulette as it started the spin by itself the moment he thought of spinning it.

He was familiar with this procedure, his memory told him he had read about this in things called "Fanfictions". In these troupes, the reincarnator gained a special power from this roulette and later on, was sent to a fictional world. That made 799's worries all the more excessive.

Without his memories, things won't be as fun living a 2nd life. He didn't know why, but a deep part of him wanted a decent life in his next turn as if his 1st life was just too bad. He wondered why. More so, living in any of those fictional worlds without memories… the chance of his death was absurdly high.

The roulette was taking a long time, as the Goddess said. Even after five minutes, it was still gaining speed. But 799 didn't have anywhere else to go, so he simply waited before the roulette reached its peak speed and started to slow down.

At one point, names started to become visible in the roulette.

Names Such as "Madara Uchiha Powers", "Grand Mist Body", "Origin Magic" "A God King's Transformation" were caught in 799's eye.

There were more, but he had never seen most of those names. A part of him felt anxious to hope for any of the big powers because… Well, the Goddess said 'Don't hope to be too lucky.' and that can't be a good sign.

For some reason, she or her higher-ups wouldn't like it if he were to gain a strong power. 799 just couldn't understand why they were holding this reincarnation procedure at all if they didn't want the reincarnators to get strong powers. What was their plan?

As the roulette kept slowing down, he noticed some truly interesting names.

"Quirk- New Order"

"Aura of Absolute Domination"

"God Emperor Ashura's Descendant"

"Reality Manipulation"

"Author's Authority"

"The Gamer System"

All were interesting, but among them, the Author's Authority seemed to be the strongest. If 799 could remember correctly, that was the narrative version of Omnipotence. You say something or even write something down, and it becomes reality. Though that might just work in the world that is created by that person, thus the name "Author". So 799 wouldn't bet his money on that. He simply hoped for the Gamer System.

Frankly, the Gamer System was strong, but it wasn't on the level that it'd be considered "too lucky" by these gods, would it? Of course not.

Probably.

799 waited silently, feeling a strange sense of adrenaline rush that shouldn't happen in this body-less soul of his. There was a "↓" sign to indicate what power would be chosen once the wheel stopped, and luckily all his target powers were very close to it, as the wheel started to really slow down.

A minute later,

"Ah…"

799 was honestly surprised as he watched the name "The Gamer System" stop directly under the arrow mark, not moving an inch anymore.

"Holy shit."

799 couldn't help but laugh out loud as he saw a blue light flash from within the wheel and then enter his soul.

[A new host has been selected. Initiating the Game.]

Though 799 was happy he realised something… was wrong.

"FATHER!"

It was a yell coming from behind him, making him turn as he found the Goddess from before, sweating as she looked at him with weary eyes, a fucking cell phone in her ears.

"T-this is bad! The subject 799, y-yes the new guy!! He received that darn Gamer System from the wheel! Come here no, we must annihilate him before history repeats itself!"

"Oh…" Soul-799 couldn't help but step back as the Goddess' beautiful face started to distort into that of a demon. "Looks like I got a bit too lucky… haha."

Without any second thought, 799 turned and jumped out of the broken wall, hoping to run away from wherever this place was.

บท 2: Reincarnation (2)

Chapter 2: Reincarnation (2)

The Neutral Zone is a place where even Gods are suppressed of their powers. In that place, using powers at all was harmful to a God's sheer existence. Because of that, Gods can't even communicate via telepathy or such with other Gods while staying in that place. 

The 'Interdimensional Cell-Phone' existed exactly because of that, to let Gods who are on within the Neutral Zone contact the Gods outside. 

Currently, only one God was in the Neutral Zone, the daughter of the Primordial God himself.

So when the Primordial received a call from his daughter's number, he knew something must have gone wrong. But for the problem to be the Gamer System…

'Not again.'

It was an unforeseen crisis.

Primordial killed the last Gamer with his own hands, but that had cost him a lot. The Gamer System might not give the user an instant power boost, but the growth speed it had… It was unmatched in all of existence.

A simple mortal could reach the peak of divinity in a matter of centuries, if not decades, with that power. That's why the last Gamer was so arrogant, thinking he could take over the omniverse by force, that fool. 

Having experienced the wrath of that power already and knowing too well how bad it was on the hands of someone who hadn't lost his memories…more so someone with a past that should have earned him a spot in hell, Primordial decided to step inside the Neutral Zone himself.

It would take a while for his status to enter that place, so he will send some other gods to help his daughter in the meantime, but once he reaches that place…

Everything will be calm again.

Foolish mortals let power get into their heads faster than anyone, so any problems should be eradicated before it can rise. He just wished he would someday be able to stop this inter-omniverse reincarnation bullshit for real…

—★—

799 couldn't understand this situation but he could at least infer that this wasn't favourable for him in any way.

The good thing was, his ball-shaped soul was changing to form the shape of a human body, even as he ran from the room where the Goddess was in.

[Initiating the game…]

[The Gamer's Body has been added! The reconstruction of the soul has started!]

 That was good, but the next message was better.

[Initiating the game…]

[The Gamer's Mind has been added! The reconstruction of the host's mental condition has started!]

[Missing memory components detected! Memories can be reconstructed!]

[Would you like to regain your old memories?] 

[Y/N]

That wasn't a question he expected, but it was a question he appreciated. He quickly clicked Yes and felt an otherworldly power start to return his memories.

As his memories returned, he realised why the Goddess called his death… interesting yet sad.

He was pushed onto the water by someone. Pushed by his own mother, with the intention of killing him.

'...What did I expect?'

As his memories returned, a part of him regretted clicking 'Yes'. This life… that life was too much for him to continue living in. He was glad he was dead, though not as glad to be killed by his own mother.

By now his body was fully formed and he was running on two legs. He thanked his healthy and admittedly fit body that he had to maintain because of his… work.

Exactly then, he heard a yell from behind.

"Stay right there!" He turned to find the goddess from before flying towards him, a fiery sword in her hand.

799 froze in his spot, unable to run as an outside force held him on his spot. The goddess closed distance in a matter of seconds and her sword descended over 799's head-

[Initiating the game… The game has been initiated!]

[Due to the host re-starting his life, a short-time invincibility will start!] 

-A thin golden aura jumped out of his body and blocked the sword, stopping it dead in its tracks. The goddess immediately coughed as if she was hurt internally and fell to the ground.

799 was surprised, but… he was relieved. It seemed this place was restricting the use of her power somehow.

"Phew…"

[09:57 minutes remaining]

10 minutes. That was when invincibility would run out, and 799 honestly wanted to escape before that.

The goddess slowly got up from the ground, glaring at the golden aura around his body.

"Tsk. Didn't think I would see that darned thing again." She said, as her beautiful face distorted, the white sclera of her eyes became black while her red lips became black too, her teeth sharpening as the inside of her mouth also went black. The next words she spoke were rippling. "But this time it won't end like last time. This time, I will eradicate you fucking Gamer before you can ever rise."

'She looks like a monster… I am starting to doubt if she's really a goddess or not.' 799 thought, frowning before he shook his head. It didn't matter what she was, the only thing that mattered was that she wanted him dead and he wanted to escape.

The goddess ran, trying to drive her sword through his chest, but it couldn't penetrate the golden aura around his body.

799 shook it off and looked around to find anything that could help him escape.

That's when he noticed it, at the place of the Fate Roulette, a new much smaller wheel was there. He couldn't have deferred them if not for the much smaller size.

799 kicked the ground and was disappointed that he didn't get any type of power boost. The 'Invincibility' was just a sort of defence and immortality. It was kind of like what happens when a player dies in an FPS game and then respawns.

Nevertheless, he ran towards the roulette while the goddess followed him, trying her best to attack. He soon reached close enough to see that this roulette indeed had the names of different fictional works, as he expected.

"Dragon Ball Z"

"Marvel Cinematic Universe"

"That time I got reincarnated as a Sperm"

Now certain that it indeed was the wheel that would decide his world, he imagined it rolling as it started to really spin.

"You…" huffed the Goddess from beside him. "I didn't want to do this but… more sacrifice is needed if I want to kill you."

Turning back at her, 799 paled as her body shone brightly, her skin going hot red, looking like the surface of a sun as steam started to come out, while her hair rose in the air like fire.

"I am going to kill you." She swung her sword again, "Divine Wrath of the Fire Goddess!"

This time, despite protecting him all the other times, the golden aura couldn't prevent the attack from phrasing through as it cut 799 from his head to his crotch.

He cried aloud, feeling a great pain as he fell to his knees, his eyes bloodshot while his body shook.

But his body didn't divide into two.

The weapon indeed passed through his body, cutting him like butter but… he was still whole.

'Fuck, that hurt.'

It hurt more than anything he should be able to endure, but he guessed it was Gamer's Mind at work that kept him sane.

799 got up, trying to dodge an attack from the incredibly fast woman but failed.

He felt pain again, but he… was alive.

He then noticed people, other Gods, raining down from the sky via a hole in the cosmos-themed ceiling as dozens and then hundreds of gods started to gather in this place.

The Wheel of the World was spinning, still gaining speed, and only 07:45 minutes remained till the invincibility would last, yet 799 couldn't bear the pain.

The pain naturally increased when the other gods joined, their attacks at first unable to pass through the golden aura before they used a technique similar to the Goddess, allowing them to pass through the Golden aura. But still… he didn't die, nor did he lose any limbs.

It was painful, he was chained up and was being attacked from all sides, but he didn't die. But that only made it worse as he started to wish he was dead.

Why was he going through this pain? Wasn't this just supposed to be a fun day at the yacht? He first died, killed by his own mother, then met a bitch goddess who had some kind of trauma with The Gamer System so much so that she wants him dead.

'Fuck.'

[Due to certain circumstances, the Invincibility buff was bypassed. The System is ashamed and it apologises.]

[The problem has been fixed!]

Two messages popped up in his retina and in the next second, all the pain disappeared. The chains holding him shattered and the weapons couldn't penetrate him anymore.

"...NO! FUCK NO!" The fire goddess yelled. "I-it's getting more powerful?! Why is father so late?! This isn't playtime!"

As if being called by her, even as 799 got up and started running, the 'ceiling' of this place broke to create a massive hole, revealing a huge red-skinned titan with horns as he glared down at the Gods, searching for 799 before he finally found him.

799 heard some relieved gasps from the side, calling out the name 'Primordial God', as he paled.

"Unfortunate gamer." The Primordial God said. "Die."

799 was confused and scared as the Primordial God opened his mouth and fired a breath of red and black fire, which engulfed a few gods, along with 799, killing the Gods instantly but…

799 was fine. It felt painful, but it wasn't as painful as before. He was fine.

"Ah…hahaha!" He laughed, grinning as he ran. It worked! Whatever the system did, it worked!

There was smoke and mist everywhere, released by the death of the gods from that beam, so 799 couldn't see the Wheel of the World anymore. 

But before the attack, he noticed the wheel had slowed down a lot, and he could tell it could choose a world anytime.

"Ah, I see." the Primordial's voice came from above the smoke. "Annoying, but I have no choice, the Wheel is just about to end spinning, it will disappear once it's done too so learning which world you ended up in will be hard. I have to finish you before that."

Hearing the initial part of his words, 799 gained a bit of hope. But the latter part scared him.

The Primordial clasped his hands in front of him, which were huge enough for 799 to see through the smoke, as the God spoke.

"Sacrificing part of my soul isn't my style, so be grateful to receive this attack that cost the soul of a Primordial."

He said, but 799 wasn't that worried. Because he had invincibility-

[10 minutes have passed. Invincibility has run out.]

"..."

799 could only watch as the golden aura left his body and the Primordial God finished casting whatever he was doing.

"Keugh!" The Primordial coughed blood like some cheap villain, as red light condensed on his clasped palm and then the light leapt towards 799's direction, coming and entering his body.

That was painful, more painful than all the previous attacks combined (if that was even possible), but before the pain could escalate, a blue light shone from under where he was standing.

["The Wheel of the World has chosen a world for you!"] 

["Please have a good time in there!"]

A loud monotone voice, not belonging to the system, spoke as everything started to go dark for 799 from the excruciating pain he was feeling.

The last thing he saw was a few system messages, following-

[Ding! The Primordial God has sacrificed a part of his soul to cast the "Primordial Curse".]

[Ding! You have escaped from the wrath of Gods and Primordial, an unimaginable feat! This action has attracted the attention of the Will of the Omniverse!]

[You have received the buff, "Will of the Omniverse's Blessing"!]

[Hope you have a good game!]

That was it before 799 lost himself.
