|Chapter 0| Uno
'How many years have passed?
How many times does this have to happen?
What sin did I commit to suffer like this.'
In a pool of blood, Cosmos questioned himself, his body at the steps of a throne.
"This is what you deserve."
Cosmo's sight drift to the person who spoke.
It was someone handsome with black long-waist hair and heroic appearance truly the looks of a protagonist. Staring at him with hatred and at his side was a woman with wavy waist-length hairstyle and peach blossom eyes and an inoffensive appearance. Truly a female lead appearance, her whole being gave the appearance of an angel if only those eyes didn't display that greed and jealousy.
'Did I deserve this?...
No, I deserved nothing of this, everything happening, nothing of this was something I ever
deserved....'
With blood at the corner of his lips, as he laid on the cold floor and blood coming from his wound after he was stabbed in the heart.
The last trace of life in his eyes disappears as his life once again comes to an end.
----
When he opened his eyes once again, he was in that same place that he hates the most, once again he was in the dark space where nothing can be seen and just darkness could be seen. He was ready once more to be transmitted into the next world.
It didn't matter again because he was used to being transported without his consent.
He waited for some time when he found something strange.
System 027 which was supposed to appear just a second after the last world ended and transport him to the next world didn't appear.
That annoying voice was there no more.
He didn't know what happened, but that system didn't appear and something in his gut said that everything was finished, that he doesn't have to continue.
The watch on his hand that was system 027 didn't respond and it seemed as if it was out of energy, no to be precise it appeared that it didn't work anymore.
Just when he was about to enjoy his freedom once again, he heard a different robotic voice.
|DING*, a suitable Host to bind appeared. Commencing binding..., 5, 4, 3, ....1|
When Cosmo heard that robotic Voice, the slight smile that had just appeared stopped and his face turned expressionless.
|*DING, ding, ding* problems with binding...binding failed...Commencing binding once again.... binding failed again....failed.....*Ding, ding, Ding, ding*, the binding will commence one again... 1%, 29%, 44%, 76%, 94%, ...|
When Cosmo heard this his heart relaxed, he thought that there must be a problem that caused the binding to fail. But when he thought he could relax, his last hope we're destroyed when he saw the bar filling reach 99-100% and his expression turned into ice cold.
|*Ding...*binding progress has reached 100% binding complete.|
|System Uno Welcome Host. System Uno is the most effective counterattack divorce system that can help the host to counterattack against heaven's darling (a.k.a. protagonists) to save worlds from destruction while also helping to fulfill grievances of certain special souls|.
Cosmo looked at 'it' with cold eyes as if seeing a parasite. However, when he heard it speak, his interest was picked.
"You say... counterattack against heaven's darling? But isn't heaven's darling or to say it simply, the protagonist, someone that must be assisted by you, systems?"
|Yes host! It's to counterattack the heaven's darling and no, the systems must not assist them.|.
"If so, then, why was I forced to act a a villain just to help the protagonist to achieve their goal." Said Cosmo in a frosty voice. His eyes emitting a tyrannical light.
When the System hear these words it started panicking.
|No, no, no, no... Host, this isn't what you think!!!|
The panic in the system looked suspicious.
"If its not what I think then, what it is?" Asked cosmos
|It's not what you think, those aren't our systems, you wouldn't know the effort it took me to disable system 027!! T^T You were just forced because of our carelessness and because of just a little failure many worlds are in caos T~T and almost facing destruction. I just hope the host can help Uno to fix the problem!| Said system uno in panick hurriedly.
When Cosmo heard that, a small surprise appeared in his eyes, his interest was picked. But when he heard that the system who called itself Uno was the one who destroyed system 027 suspicions flashed in his eyes.
The reason is simple, he had tried to break free from system 027, but he couldn't, his power wasn't enough, and each time he tried to break free, his soul was the one who suffered, and sometimes, he was even sent to punishment worlds were he suffered greatly. Every once in a while that he tried to defy the system and darling of heavens the system will put his soul in great pain and take control over his persona not letting him do whatever he wanted.
Just remembering those times makes his expression ice cold.
System Uno who was by his side could see his expression becoming devoid of emotions and it even could feel the thirst for blood, his killing intent.
The alarm flashed in system Uno.
|*Ding, ding, ding, ding*, Host's emotions unstable..... h-host cal-calm down (.□°)⊰⊹ I-if you don't do, we're finished..... Ding, ding ding.|
The moment of hearing the system's voice brought back Cosmos to reality.
|*DING*, *ding, ding.* Host's emotions stabilizing...|
After the system's alarm ended, System Uno starts to calm down when he heard the cold and devoid of emotions voice.
"So, what do I gain by helping with the missions? It's better if you explain this to me in detail." In a frosty voice he said, as he sees the ball of light floating in front of him.
When system Uno heard this question he immediately answered with joy.
|Host may not know but I will explain to you from the beginning. First, your task when you were bonded to system 027 was to act as a villain and be the obstacle of the darling of the heavens, but the host may not know that they're just fake darlings and the real ones have been used to make them shine more than the real ones.
Those that have stolen the positions of the real 'protagonists' are the ones who you need to counterattack against and recover the protagonist's halo for the real darling. They're the fake protagonist and have affected the real darlings's fate and been led to a tragic end.
Your job is to find the real darlings and protect them from the fake ones. Then, once done, you have to make sure the real protagonists have a happy ending and not end in tragedy.
When you were bound to system 027, it forced you to be the villain and the obstacle for some fake darling of heavens. The real ones always had a bad ending.
Like this you have to counterattack but for this you have to first change the fate of certain special souls that ended tragically.|
"So you're saying that those were fake, and the real ones were driven to a bad end by the fake ones?"
|Yes!!..., ah! But that is just the side task, the main task is to help the special souls to settle their grievances, help them change their life. You will be taking those souls' place.
What this system means is that host's task is to settle the grievances of the original owner of the body host will be deciding. You have to fulfill their wishes, no matter how difficult they're.| Says the system.
"There's no need to explain so much, I understand, but as I asked earlier if I complete the tasks, what do I get? And I'm also sure that you will get something you need, I mean nothing is got for free, there must be something that you'll get if I decide to help you, right?"
Cosmos spoke because he knew that if he helped then there must be something that System Uno wanted and just by doing these tasks the system would get it. So Cosmos spoke indifferently with a cold voice.
When System Uno heard him asking about what it will get, it started to feel pressured so 'it' decided to change the topic.
|Host, sorry but Uno can't give you a response, the authority Uno has is not enough. But the host can become more powerful every time the host completes each task, you can absorb the world's energy that is given by the world as a thank for saving the world when you return to this space.|
Hearing it said that and trying to divert from this topic Cosmos no longer inquired about it, he knows perfectly that if it helped him by disabling system 027 by force then it must be difficult to give answers, so, he coldly asked:
"I know that I can become more powerful, but there must be something else you can give me."
|Host can have one wish granted, even returning to your original life, or reincarnate in whatever place you want.|
"No, I don't want to return nor reincarnate..." He said then stood silent for a moment with a gloomy expression as if thinking of something then later he said, "I will think if I have a wish. When I had something in mind I will say it." In an indifferent tone.
"I will accept the missions.
So say when are we going to start."
|Wait, the host has to decide which world you want to go to first, It will only give you the options, and the host will decide. Give me a moment and it will show the host the options.|
When hearing that he will be the one to decide which world they're going to first, Cosmos was surprised, but his surprise just lasted a second when his face returned to the calm and indifferent one.

These are the worlds, host|.
"Those are all?"
Cosmo asked raising an eyebrow, because of the high quantity of worlds that he was forced to transmigrate to before and there weren't those types of low-level worlds of middle level, all were high-level worlds.
|These are all the worlds host, Uno swears that those are the ones host can currently enter to because your power was greatly debilitated. It was swallowed by system 027 during too much time and the host currently has not much power. Those are the only middle level you can enter but when your soul becomes more powerful you will be able to again enter high-level words.
These two middle levels are the lowest middle level that you can enter.|
When system Uno said he can't enter a more high-level world, Cosmo's hatred for the one who imprisoned him increased. His power was almost completely sucked and if that continued his soul for sure would have come next, completely disappearing.
|Host what level do want to go to?|
"The low-level world. I need to gain a little more force if I want to continue with the middle levels."
|Excellent choice host.|
"Then let's go..." Just when Cosmo was about to continue his words he notice the system retreating and knew that there was something amiss when he sees this action. His eyes turned cold and asking "Is there something you haven't said to me?"
|H-h-host don't get angry b-but there is one problem. that I didn't say you|
With a cold voice, Cosmo asked, "Say it."
|H-host has t-to transmigrate into the villains that are used as an obstacle for the darlings of heavens.|
When Cosmo heard this he sigh. It's not as if he didn't know because he already had his suspicions when the system said those special souls ended tragically.
System Uno, not hearing Cosmo talking became panisked and said, |B-but host Uno Can't do anything if we don't continue like what you were before we will be discovered very fast and eliminated. And what's more, is that those souls who need your help to get revenge are all villains or simply were in the way of the fake protagonists.|
Hearing that excuse system was trying to do he couldn't help but sigh because it is true, if this System Uno took down system 027 then that means that he must have done it in secret and it must be dangerous if they're discovered.
"Fine, then it's time to go, better end this sooner than later." He said indiferently.
|Yes Host|*･
