Prologue: It All Began And Ended, Then…

Inside a messy room full of energy drinks, food delivery bags, and all types of snacks. There was me playing my favorite game, a game that was a mix of genres in an Omniverse-type setting, a game called Absolute Fantasy: Endless Possibilities.

It was an odd game, it wasn't an online MMO, it was instead an Eroge RPG game made by a passionate indie studio that had recently just appeared.

The title wasn't there just for show, despite being an adult game with many many possible love interests and a lot of sexual content to all tastes and fetishes, it was also an open world maybe calling it an open Ominverse would make more sense.

There are multiple planets, universes, and even multiverses where you can start your journey after creating your character. It had so many possibilities and things to do, quests, and even a main storyline revolving around one of eight possible main heroines depending on the multiverse you choose.

There are 8 multiverses in this game and each had in between 12 and 15 universes, each universe having from 22 to 34 playable planets and a bunch of randomly generated planets to fit with the setting.

In the game, there were 8 types of universes to choose from, Magic ones, Superpower ones, Supernatural ones, Modern ones, Futuristic ones, Spiritual ones, Cultivation ones, and Mixed ones joining elements from all the others.

All this stuff and their insanely good art and sex scenes with so much more, made the game extremely popular for an adult game, to the point that it became a meme to recommend it to friends as a wholesome RPG game.

When it came to the game's content, most of it was optional, and unless the player messed up very badly, they would never be forced into a specific type of scene, so if there was some sort of stuff that bothered them like NTR or something, they could avoid it...

Or they could just deactivate it in the settings of the game, but somehow people still complained about how they got into a scene they didn't want to see.

There was even a guy in a forum once who refused to deactivate NTR but kept complaining that his waifu in the game kept getting done in by this rich dude because he was poor and basically locked himself into having it end that way and had no save files to get him out of it. Truly a tragic end.

Because of it a lot of people were suggesting cheats he could use to get easy money but for some reason, he just refused and kept complaining instead.

Not minding that I took the cheats for myself and made a lot of money in the game, then made my character into a very powerful individual in the Absolute Fantasy Omniverse.

In the game, Gods and beings that basically have the power on that kind of level were called Celestial beings, of which there were 5 types, Gods, Devils, Anti-Gods, Anti-Devils, and Nulls.

Nulls were the best but also the hardest type of Celestial to become. So not wanting to be God since they are on the side of Order, I became a Devil on the side of Chaos. Since even Anti-Gods or Anti-Devils were still a hassle to become.

Playing for a very long time, my character became an Almighty Devil. So like any good obsessed player, It took me months of playing and a better understanding of the game's lore, the few mechanics it had, and the complex relationships between factions and individuals.

After that, I managed to keep rising the ranks and I got so involved the concept of cheating in this game left my book. I was just playing every day I could and it became my comfort from anything that hurt me in the outside world.

It took me actual years to get through all the content and reach the pinnacle of the game with all the main heroines, and all of the Omniverse conquered but I managed to do it, even others gave up on the game claiming it was trying too hard to have a story when it should just been for the erotic content.

I left nothing to be done, and actually, 100% the game though it was a massive task, I loved doing it and could not feel better, even if I would have loved it if there was more of the game to see.

[Hey, you seem to be the type of lose-, I mean person to want to experience a whole new reality. Well, you're in luck cause the Absolute Fantasy: Endless Possibilities' World needs you!

As one of the few people to have done every main, and side quest as well as collected all the scenes even of unspeakable things, you have been selected to start a new reality.

Would you like to abandon everything for a new world? Press Yes to write and actualize the world background and your character's background within reason.

Yes/No]

What kind of idiot would fall for such an obvious pop-up ad? No, thanks. I reject the offer.

[Rethink this! Are you sure you don't want to go to a world full of beauties where a harem that loves you unconditionally is possible? Think about all the power you could acquire in such a world.

Would you like to abandon everything for a new world? Press Yes to write and actualize the world background and your character's background within reason.

Yes/No]

What is wrong with this ad?! It almost seems like its actually talking to me... No, don't fall for it. I press No.

[Ok, let's talk for real here. If you take this offer, I'll even add that system thing you're making as a bonus and let you have nigh limitless say on the world and character background.

Would you like to abandon everything for a new world? Press Yes to write and actualize the world background and your character's background with an almost limitless range for creativity.

Yes/No]

....

This is... I apologize to the future me who will have to deal with the consequences of this decision, but it's too tempting to reject. I hope I can forgive myself. I press yes.

As soon as that happened, a new screen popped up and I began to define how things would as the power to rewrite reality was given to me.

The first was how it starts for me as the protagonist and starting on Earth is the best chance as a person on normal earth before I die and go to another world, since the reincarnator perk is not bad.

After that, I made it so I would be a very gifted individual and chosen by as many Gods as I could, I guess there is a limit to pity... Then It at least should be the most powerful ones, then I should get a system as well... But that would all take too long...

So let's make it so my consciousness only takes over once I'm in the other world after Earth with all my cheats, and I should have an aptitude for all things, and I should also make that cosmic event that gives me the cheat power come earlier... Yeah!

Oh, and before I forget let's add the perks of my best character to be achievable by the time I wake up there as well... And for the background of reality... I don't feel like making that, so the same as the game. Yeah, that works the best for me.

Maybe I should be more specific about how these things happen... Oh well, it should just work out. I wish I could add more or give myself a lot of power, but it will only let me add potential and talent to an extent... It's a scam but I guess it works to make me OP.

Though I wonder how my body will get the things done until I take over in the other world... Let's just add a disposable mind to control until I'm there... So done.

The reality where I can become the best is done, and while this is fine, I wish I could just instantly become the best... Oh well... So, I pressed the confirm button.

A white light immediately shot from the screen blinding me completely before everything went dark.

____________________________________________

In the beginning, there was nothing, funny, how that was it, but it was not simple to imagine or understand, yes nothing, however, it was not anything other than calm.

There was no black or white, no order or chaos, no time or space, no laws to govern anything and even the illogic was yet to come for there was no logic to oppose.

The duality that ruled reality was missing, and so was any semblance of balance, it just was a nothing that defined everything, being both and none, a paradox that was no contradiction, an oxymoron that could not be explained. It just was.

Or at least it would have just been if it weren't for the one exception, the only being, the nonexistent existence that was before there was being.

Such loneliness could only last so much, and with three sets of hands clapping together, the explosion that brought everything to nothing came to be.

Each finger was given a task to occupy:
-Existence, Chaos, Order
-Time, Space, Fate
-Freedom, Death, Life
-Hope, Despair, Destruction
-Creation, Desire, Satisfaction
-Consistency, Paradox, Madness
-Logic, Dreams, Nightmares
-Reality, Mostals, Gods
-Duality, Balance, Hell
-Heaven, Spirit, Delirium
-Delight, Infinity, Eternity.

Those thirty fingers later became 10 individuals and the 6 hands became the 11th.

Atop those eleven stood the creator itself looking at its creation as an overseer a leader of the 11 came from its act.

However, things did not end there, as there were other consequences to that act, from mortals to universes, to Multi-verses, that formed a grand Omniverse, there was everything where once only nothing stood.

The nothing however wasn't just gone, it could not be after all, its very nature didn't allow it to be gone.

So as a result of all that now was, the nothing had become something even though it was still nothing.

The Creator and its eleven children had another being with them, that who was the remnant of the nothing that never was.

Unknown to all beyond the 12, nothing was the illegitimate child of the creator, one not meant to be.

The vast Omniverse in time became a flourishing verse with all the greatest, and disasters that came with one, the 11 keeping things balanced and under the command of the creator.

They became worshipped, in most places, all of them except nothing. Nothing was simply there. Living among them like a shadow, observing and even interacting with them, like the youngest sibling only there to be taught and pampered, but never allowed to act.

Time passed eons upon eons and things never ended, but they did it, the 11 under the creator managed to bring upon perfect balance to the Omniverse.

Back in their own dimension separate from everything else, there resided their great palace with a grandness that confused.

"I told you all that it was possible, our greatest could not be understated. Balance was achieved, and we fulfilled our purpose. Maybe we should burn everything down so we can do it the perfect way next time. Haha," Existence joked as it spoke to the others having reachef this point.

"The end has come, there is no doing it again. The moment for that has passed. It will be fine to rest now." Time responded calmly as they sat down in meditation.

"If it were for me, we would not have touched anything! We should have allowed omniverse to run without our interface, until it died as the natural course for most things demands." Freedom spoke up clearly dissatisfied with this final outcome that was guided by them.

"Even so, it gave those below us a new life. Also, no matter what it will eventually collapse as is the rule.

"Once that happens destruction will rise once more and nothing will be able to save them. I know they will not give in however, they are stronger than we give them credit." Hope added a warm smile to its face as it did so.

"At that point, we'll just have to give them more, to make it even better than now. To aim further than ever before until we break through all the metrics for them, as we always did." Creation has the widest smile as it spoke with eyes burning with passion beyond all else.

"Hfhrdffd gf ydugdyde, uturgbudhstsrhystfhs, hdhychfdhgdgrr. Then we would have all it takes to make it perfect once and for all. Heygetfurghejdfuf ufgb grydings, ujcdynebechebhegh, hfugedbjjhshd." Consistency suggested as it rubbed its chin thinking of the prospects.

"… Yeah, great plans. They will definitely come in handy later." Logic looked nervous as it spoke cold sweat on its forehead.

"If only things were that simple. I expected Logic to say it, but this cycle is a never-ending one, and our job will never truly be over, though it will be nice to get a bit of a vacation every once in a while." Reality told the others its arms crossed as it did, as Logic sighed in relief as if it was worried about what Reality might have said.

"No, we should end it… however, I do actually agree that it will be pointless, and stupid to expect it to actually end. Even so, I know that we will if we keep trying. No, that's actually stupid beyond understanding." Duality was a bit of both sides, it tried to come to some conclusion.

"The level of peace we have helped them achieve is more than worth the infinity we will put into this later." Heaven smiled its face full of joy.

"So true! This is the best moment ever! I'll never forget how thankful everything from below was to know we would be here to keep the balance. Too good!" Delight was exploding with excitement and joy from the experience.

"Hey, hey! You youngins are all back, and here I thought you forgot me. I almost shed a tear because of this neglectful attitude." Boasting a smile, was Nothing, who came to them seeing all their discussion.

At that time, Existence put Nothing in a chokehold with a singular arm and then said. "Who are you calling a youngin, brat? You came after all of us, if anything you are the kid here! Don't make me break your bones!"

"Technically speaking, though he only came to be after us, Nothing is as old as The Creator, so let the kid go, he's free to speak his own way, beating him up should be enough." Freedom said seeing Existence hold Nothing like that.

"By that line of thought, we were made of the fingers and hands of The Creator, so we either accept that we are all the same age or Nothing is the youngest." Logic commented seeing their discussion.

""Nothing is the youngest!"" They all decided in unison.

"That's completely unfair towards me, this younger generation, and their disregard for the elders." Nothing shook its head sticking to its ideas.

However, that did not pan out well, as Existence just began choking it even more.

"Eeeerrfgh, save me kids! Please, your older siblings is attacking me!" Nothing pleaded.

All the siblings did nothing to help.

"Where did I leave my... Book… Yeah, my book…" Freedom looked away.

"…" Time medicated and acted oblivious.

"May our little Nothing come out alive from this experience no matter how battered and destroyed he might end up… please let him make it." Hope prayed for Nothing and just watched.

"Beat up the little snot! He got too comfortable, it's the perfect occasion to build a proper hierarchy around these parts!" Creation just watched while supporting Existence from the crowd.

"Break the neck and then put it back, it works wonders. Also, why are you not using weapons. Hagedhsg G-d sdgdfg, hdudvhdghfdgjkhfrsde, heraftgeusegurss Ft fhh." Consistency just began suggesting ways in which they could make it more dangerous.

"Considering all the factors at play, it's done… 5 seconds max, if Nothing gets lucky." Logic was trying to calculate how long Nothing was going to last.

"There is nothing we can do…" Reality gave up on Nothing.

"Nothing or Existence? Who should I try to help?" Duality was stuck on deciding what to do.

"I'll take great care of you and you'll be good as new no matter what Existence does to you. Fight at your best, Nothing!" Heaven cheered on Nothing.

"Fighting is just the best! Let's go! Hit each other harder!" Delight was just enjoying the situation all in all.

{Come to me, my children. The hour of the verdict has arrived.} A voice reached everyone causing them to turn to the top of the palace.

Time sighed seeming while Logic stiffened quite clearly not ready for what was ahead.

Meanwhile, the rest of them were a mix of worried, excited, and ready.

Then there was Nothing who just followed behind.

Once they all stood in front of the Creator, it looked down at them and said.

{It's the end, you all succeeded in your task, I am very proud of you all. I'm sure you all know what that means, right?} The Creator asked them.

"I talk for all of us when I say we are ready to rest for now until we are needed again." Existence said and Time looked down while Logic began trembling.

{Oh, no, you seem to misunderstand something. You all have finished your task and accomplished your purpose as the Omniverse as a whole. There will be no next time for you.

{This Omniverse together with everything in it aside from myself will be destroyed so that a new one can be created with new versions of you all, and start the process all over, like aways. Am sure Time and Logic came to understand their destiny.} The Creator revealed coldly with no problem whatsoever.

""What?!"" Many of them were confused by this reveal.

"So, the time has really come, how unfortunate." Time has given up and simply resigned themselves to this fate.

"Before you do it, I just want a why. Why do all this to us and the Omniverse as a whole? Why create it all just to destroy it in the end? Is this some sick game or is something more at play here?" Logic asked as it had thought of this for a long time but was never able to come to a clear conclusion even after predicting this outcome.

{I've answered that question before and even if I do know, it will change nothing. The outcome is set. The only thing I did not plan for was you, Nothing… Even then, you were no more than another disappointment, my greatest failure.

{Goodbye, you did your job well, but in the end, it was all still a failed Omniverse. What a pity, that it must conclude once more. You did your best, but it simply was not enough, maybe next time you will be able to entertain me.} The Creator announced and the end came, just as it started, with a clap of three sets of hands.

Knowing they could do nothing most of the 11 hugged together.

However, Hope, Existence, Consistency, and Freedom tried to attack The Creator to defend themselves and the Omniverse, unfortunately, it was pointless as everything was no more, and nothing was left.

Once again, there was nothing, a calm contradiction that was not, and from it, after another clap of three sets of hands.

A new Omniverse was born just like the last one. Was such a cycle inevitable? What could even be done about it? This was the will of the Creator after all, what could the creations ever accomplish against it?

Such vexing questions did not matter since without even the knowledge of what was truly happening, how could anyone do anything?

It was a truly hopeless situation. A case that was far beyond anything anyone could do, there was simply nothing left to be done.

Stuck in an eternal cycle by a tyrannical Creator none of the creations understood, all that was left, was Nothing.
