[This place is my central matrix, or to be more exact, this is a virtual world created by me]

"Wait a minute how is that possible?" Maya couldn't understand the explanation, from the AI.

[What do not you understand?]

"When we were caught you said that we would be transported because we are in a virtual reality" Maya.

The land had not only increased its military power with the development of people, but also its technology, so immersive games already existed.

Being liked by the common public in general, after all not everyone could increase their strength, although there was a school where they trained prodigies like the one Chris, Lillia and Aurora went to, the number of people who go to these schools is not even 1% of the population.

So immersive gaming was the best way for ordinary people to have what they can't have.

In addition, the immersions only introduced the consciousness of people into the visual worlds, making it impossible for their bodies to become data within the main matrix of Al.

[I understand your confusion, when their bodies were transported, they passed into a dimensional space within the matrix, upon reaching that place their consciousness was concentrated with my matrix which allowed them to do the immersion]

"You couldn't do the dive when we were still broke" Chloe.

[It could, but due to how complex it would be to establish the connection with their consciousnesses when transferred to this space, this virtual world would move at the same speed as the real world, but in the resignation of the matrix, this world will be able to move at hundreds of speeds. times greater, if I were to put it in simple terms, it's like comparing a diving helmet to a cabin]

"So, several days here, it's seconds in the real world" Chloe.

[Correct]

"Al, I might ask why are we here? It wasn't just because we activated the matrix" Chloe.

Chloe was interested in the AI they were talking to, after all earth technology, although to developed intelligent adaptive AIs, they were still stuck in their base programming so they had no emotions or feelings, but the Al with the who speak, had emotions and feelings, as shown when she felt disgust towards Chris, showing that she is a high-level AI.

[That's an expected question, this world was created to leave a record of the past, or to be exact a warning not to continue since something important is being sealed, while I was left here to transfer the legacies to the compatible people who meet all requirements]

"What kind of warning and is it sealed?"

Chris asked, this world never seemed normal to her, but now she had her full attention.

[This world has existed since the origins of the god realm and this is for only one reason, it is a containment center to seal a weapon that has existed since the beginning of creation within it]

"Seal something from the beginning, it could be a primal god" Chris.

[No, it's even worse, a Royalty]

"Aaaaaaa….."

This time Chris couldn't hide his astonishment as a sense of danger spread throughout his body, he knew it was a Royalty from the lady of the lake, so he understood the danger that comes with being around this kind of thing. stuff.

"Are you sure it's a royalty?" Chris asked.

When Chloe and Maya saw this kind of reaction from Chris, they got scared, they wanted to ask what a Royalty was, but seeing Chris's impatience, they understood that knowing the answer would be more dangerous than not knowing, at least for now.

[Of course, it's a royalty since it was one of the first royalties to appear]

"Exactly how this royalty appeared" Chris.

When Al saw Chris's crazy reaction, she understood that he knew what a royalty was, which surprised her, since Royalties are unique things, although they are very powerful, people who know of their existence are very few, being the gods the only ones who would try to get close to these things, after all, although they are seen as treasures, the truth is that they are calamities that could bring the end of all.

This is why the AI decided to answer Chris's question.

[In the origins of everything, the power of Nothing accumulated and created existence itself, giving rise to the kingdom of God and all existing primordial creatures, everything that I believe Nothing had a balance, keeping all existence in perfect harmony or that was thought, one day the power of Nothing accumulated and gave existence to a perfect being, the people who revered him called them heavenly, while those who feared him considered him a cursed being]

At this point in the story everyone was stunned, he knew that Al was referring to the cursed weapon, but since he knew it was a being and not an object, only Chris knew this information from Ego, how Al had it and who was the teacher I believe it.

[This being was so powerful that it could shed the blood of the gods as if it were child's play, the catastrophes it caused were so great that it almost destroyed the kingdom of gods, returning it to nothingness, it is not known why, but the Nothingness at that moment, as if he were trying to correct his mistakes, he created the royalties, which faced this being and finally managed to seal it]

This time Chris couldn't understand the content of the story, Al described Nothing as a person, but he had been to nothing many times, but he never felt a conscience, this made him uncomfortable for some reason.

[The royalties had a power similar to being cursed, but due to the battle they were weakened, the gods fearing that the royalties would become a second calamity decided to subdue them, but since the royalties were born from the pure power of nothing, it was not possible to subdue them, to unless nothing itself did, after that the conflict ended in another tragedy, since the relics did not want chaos in the kingdom of god, they hid while others for some reason allowed themselves to be sealed]

"Then the relic here is one of the ones that was left sealed right?" Chris.

[That's right, the relic that is here is something special compared to the others, despite being a person, its powers make it the most dangerous weapon of all, at that time it is called the eve of the apocalypse]

"What are his powers?" Chris.

[Sorry to tell you, but that information is not in my allowed memory banks, apart from some basic royalty information, the rest is sealed by various locks]

This was really disturbing, Chris didn't understand why everything that was happening in this world no longer seemed like coincidences, but more like they were connected.

"Tell me, is that all you're here for?" Chris.

"Not really, I had already said it but my teacher, in addition to instructing me to report this information, asked me to deliver this to the people who activate the matrix as long as they meet the conditions"

At that moment two spheres, one black and one white, appeared in front of Chloe and Maya, in that sphere you could see two books.

On Chloe's book cover she wants Light Paladin, while Maya's said Dark Paladin, written in divine runes.

"Eternal rank cultivation techniques" Chris.

"Is it okay that we have this?" Chris,

Ancient, Eternal and Deity rank cultivation techniques were the treasures that everyone was looking for especially the last two, but this Al was giving away two Eternal rank techniques like it was nothing, leaving Chloe and Maya beside themselves, confused if they should accept the gift or not.

"Tell me, what are the conditions for receiving the legacy?" Chris.

[The conditions to receive the legacy is that the person must be suitable to practice the technique having a perfect compatibility… besides that they must be with the god of Nothing]

At that moment Chris's emotions fluctuated, as Al knows that he is the god of Nothing, also Al made sure to say that part so that only he could hear it.

[Very well, it's time to return, in reality only a second has passed so the people who accompany them have not noticed his absence]

*** ***

*Flash*

Only a fraction of a second had passed, but the three of them had already left the visual world, but they had returned to their original positions, on top of that Chloe and Maya were holding the books of the techniques they were given.

*Boom*

Chris without wasting time tried to use his power to reactivate the matrix, but in doing so he noticed that the device that was used as the core had disappeared.

(Damn talking computer, disappear like nothing) Chris thought.

He still had a lot of questions, for Al, after all he had information he didn't know, the story Chris heard even though it was simple had many hidden hints in his narration to several of his questions.

(Not a minute has passed since we parted, but you're already missing me, I wonder what you would do if I'm not by your side from now on, how many mistakes would you make) a voice was heard in Chris's head.
