Chapter 1
Two concepts exist within everything, every being, and every instance, Order and Chaos.
After eons of existence, the two concepts gained sentience. Since then the two battled against each other constantly, the reason was unknown but from the start, they knew that it was necessary
Like a newborn foal knows it needs to run to survive the two knew one of them must perish for the other to flourish.
Between one such battle, in the timeless void, the two managed to crack the layers separating the multiverses, and the souls from different multiverses entered the timeless void.
The layer separating the multiverses quickly restored itself as the souls without a path of reincarnation merged with one another.

'ɢֆǟɮɢɖֆǟ'
"ʄɢֆɖʄɢ!!!!" A screeching roar of pain and confusion echoed in the endless emptiness. As the humanoid-shaped being screeched in pain.
Despite its humanoid appearance it seemed to be made entirely of purplish light. While its facial features could not be recognized.
"Impressive" a monotone yet soothing voice called out.
As soon as the voice was heard the soul's pain and confusion suddenly stopped, as a soft and soothing sensation replaced the pain.
"ǟɖʄɢֆɖʄɢֆɖʄɢ" Unreasonable and unrecognizable sounds were all that the soul could muster as if a mob of people trying to talk at the same time.
"This is not gonna work, let's see.....this should do it" The voice responded to the soul as a spear of yellow light merged into the soul.
"Listen now my child, from this moment on you will be my herald, the herald of Order" The voice commanded to the soul.
"..." The soul didn't respond to those words as it seemed to stare into nothingness.
"You are not yet strong enough to completely merge with the souls within you"
"I have separated your conscience from the rest of the cluster, one by one dominate the remaining souls only then will you be of some use" The voice stated.
"..." The soul again didn't respond and still seemed to be in a trance-like state.
"From now on, you will be sent from world to world and bring order in the times of chaos." The voice stated, and the soul vanished from the void, breaking into green particles.
"I will be keeping a close eye on your progression,"

Near the gates of an orphanage, two hooded figures hurriedly attempted to open the gate.
Rain dropped from the skies as one of the hooded figures was carrying a straw basket covered by a thin blue blanket.
Unable to open the gates the figure simply dropped the basket near a lamp.
The light from the lamp shined over the basket, and one of the hooded figures removed some of the blanket revealing a small baby.
The figure slowly fondled the baby's cheeks making the baby giggle a little. Seeing this action the other figure forcefully gripped the hand pulling it away from the baby.
The two exchanged silent glances and then the two hurriedly ran away from the doors and entered an old-looking car.
As soon as the car started the doors to the orphanage were opened. An elderly-looking man opened the door.
"Hmm, I thought I heard some banging. must be my dream" The man muttered under his breath and was about to close the doors.
"Wahhhh!"
The cries of the baby took the attention of the elderly man as he approached the straw basket.
The child was drenched from the rain as the water had started to fill the straw basket.
Seeing nobody else nearby the man carried the child inside and closed the door behind him.
"Takashi-san?" A feminine voice called out to the man as he turned around.
"Sou-chan, look who I found at the doorstep," Takashi said as he presented the child to the woman.
Takashi Fushi was an elderly man in his mid-fifties, he was the creator and owner of the Fushi Orphanage.
Sou Fushi was an elderly woman who seemed to be of similar age to Takashi, and his wife. She was the co-owner of the orphanage.
"Quickly bring me a towel and some diapers," Sou said as she took the baby in her arms.
Takashi didn't dare to even question as he quickly looked for some spare diapers and a towel.
The child then opened his eyes, they were emerald-colored.
"Oh?" The old woman exclaimed in surprise as she saw those eyes.
'A mixed blood' The old woman silently thought to herself as she cradled the child.
"Your eyes are so pretty they remind me of precious gems," She muttered with a soft smile on her face.
"Ryusei, it means a shooting star" She stated as she held the boy by his armpits.
And so four years had passed since the day Ryusei was left the doorsteps of an orphanage.
Ryusei had now grown quite a lot, his coal-black hair and green emerald-like eyes fascinated the staff of the orphanage.
However, he rarely talked with anyone, often opting to read books in a corner not minding any thought to his surroundings.
The staff had previously taken him to a hospital fearing that he was born with defected vocals only to find out that he would rather keep to himself.
The now four-year-old Ryusei silently sat in the play area as his eyes observed the other children from the orphanage.
'This place is...depressing' Ryusei thought to himself as he looked at the children playing in the ball pit and running around.
-[System is now avialable for the host's use]-
Suddenly a semi-transparent blue screen appeared in front of him startling him.
"AAAHHHHHHHHH!!!" Ryusei screeched in pain as the memories of the past forced themselves into his brain.
The workers nearby aleared by the scream immediately darted towards him trying to figure out what happened.
"AAh!" Ryusei jolted up from the bed and he looked at his surroundings, the memories still fresh in his mind as he looked at his surroundings.
"fuuu" He let out a sigh of relief. Instead of confusion, he felt refreshed.
"System Status," Ryusei muttered under his breath.

"A system, this reminds me of that one manga I was reading from the library," Ryusei thought to himself as he hopped out of bed.
"What do these stats represent?" Ryusei questioned himself.

"I understand most of this, the templates must represent the merged souls, however, what is cursed energy?"
-[Cursed Energy: This is a supernatural form of energy powered by the negetive energy of humans or curses.]-
"What are curses?"
-[Curses: System info incomplete! The host has yet to encounter a curse!!]-
"It reflects on my past encounters then? but I never used cursed energy before? how did it know about that?" Ryusei questioned.
-[Cursed Energy is present within all human beings]-
"I see" Ryusei muttered to himself as he looked at the screen rereading everything making sure he didn't leave anything out.
"Then what are these Alphabets in front of some stats"
-[The alphabet represents the level at which that skill currently is. The list goes as SSS, SS, S, AAA, AA, A, BBB, BB, B, CCC, CC, C, DDD, DD, D, EEE, EE, E, F]-
"Good thing granny taught me the English alphabet"
"Ryusei? are you up?" A concerned voice questioned as the door to the room was opened.
Takashi entered the room as he looked Ryusei was now standing in the middle of the room.
"Gramps?" Rysei said.
"Good, you are up now. What happened there did someone hit you? Are you feeling pain somewhere?" Takashi asked as he lifted Ryusei in his arms.
"No, no one hit me Gramps" Ryusei responded as he pushed himself off Takashi's hold.
"Haha, little Ryusei is all grown up now. You used to love being held as a baby" Takashi said with a smile on his face.
"Anyways, if you are feeling fine you should go out and play, if you feel uncomfortable don't be shy to tell us" Takashi reminded one more time and left the room.
'That reminds me it showed 2 in front of the quest status' Ryusei thought to himself as he stepped out of the room.
