1 System

My name is

Um.

I forgot.

Call me Arian for now. I'm Arian, the Lord of CHAOS!

It's not as proud of a title as I wish it was. This is the Eternal Landsafter all, you can find handfuls of peops just like me all around. I do have something going for me though, I specialize in Technology and Superior Firepower. Which gives me an edge against the other immortals... If anyone actually fought.

This place is extremely peaceful. Annoyingly so. But... I suppose it is enjoyable if you look in the right places. Still, I've been bored out of my freakin mind! Now I'm doing something bout it. I mean we have the Multiverse directly under us, why not pay it a visit, screw around with the stories there and such. I have enough power for something like that.

However, transferring to a lower plane of existence is a difficult task. It takes a ton of power. Luckily a conflict between immortals will give me enough power to make it happen. And it just so happens that a few of the new Light Gods have gotten annoyed with the Dark Gods again, which seems to happen every few generations. So I plan on harvesting the energy from that little fight.

So far it's gone well enough, only a few spars between the immortals has given me enough power to fill one one-hundredth of my battery. I just have to continue the endless grind. My own generators give me a decent 2 Yottawatts worth of power each month, and the conflicts give me around 8 Yottawatts per month. When they start their war I'll have a full battery and can open my gate into the multiverse for around three seconds. Then endless fun for me!

Maybe. I glance at the monstrosity of a gate I made. The thing looks like a heap of scrap metal. If I could build it publically it wouldn't be so ugly cause I could have spread out the wiring and pieces. But as it is? Not so much. It will work for what I want at least.

...

I really don't want to wait that long.

There must be some way to shorten the pro-

Data. I can transfer data easily. My Teleporters are a testament to that, converting the body into 1s and 0s effortlessly.

This may be stupid of me.

I'm going to do it anyway.

Alrighty then, link the teleporters with the gate, mess around a bit with the gates setting.

Check my self destruct systems so no one screws around with my equipment when I leave.

I'm ready. Damn, should I really do this? My body was extremely difficult to build...

Eh, let's do it. It will only take a few hundred years to build a new one.

I send a mental command to the nanolathes that cover my structures. [Activate]

My body rips and shudders as the Chaos Energy unfolds itself, splitting out from my body into the world. The energy of Chaos in my soul stays strong though. Then I am gone. Or at least I think I am, I should have been launched out into the multiverse now.

Hmm? An Immortal?

I sense a fairly strong soul for someone of the lower realm coming to me. What's the alignment? Strange, eh, interesting. Never seen that alignment before.

[Greetings Lost Soul.]

Ah, they can't tell me power, well that is the problem with Chaos, unpredictable.

{Sup Bro.}

[You are rather... enthusiastic?]

{That's the word bro, what ya want.}

[Well... I had a proposition, but you might not be the person for it.]

{Why not dawg? I'm pretty awesome you know?}

[Nevermind then. Do you wish for a chance? A chance to change your fate?]

{Nope. I like having fun though.}

I feel the soul brighten up at my words.

[Hm, what If I offered you a chance to have fun?]

{Yo dawg, why didn't you say so? Whats it too ya?}

[Would you like to be a system? Someone who helps others change their fates? You can earn points and such that will let you do cool things like buying a body or maybe trying out cool things from the Point Shop.]

{Point Shop? Are there Games?}

[Yes?]

{Yo Dawgo, I'm in!}

[I'm going to regret this aren't I?]

{You never know if you don't try do ya?}

[Alright, let's do this.]

I feel connections form between me and several far off inventories. Then a stream of [Code] enters my Soul, attempting to lessen my emotions and such. It doesn't work that well of course, [Chaos Code] Adopts and changes the coding to better fit my uses. As far as the soul can tell? I haven't done a thing.

I have a name now other than Arian! System 1004!
