The Truth

Valentina Windsor was 16 years old at the time. As the emperor's daughter, the ceremony was held secretly. Initially, everything was going well. She awakened a hidden profession called Oracle, and received two very powerful SSR-level talents, Eye of Truth and Daughter of the World.

Then something happened, and Alexandre, as a father, could only watch his daughter fall into that state without being able to do anything. But before she fell into a deep sleep, she left incomprehensible words for him while he held her in his arms.

"Do not trust this power too much, it is not a blessing, but a curse."

After saying this, she fell into a deep sleep. After inviting several trusted healers, he could only sigh; none of them could help, nor could they find any problem with his daughter.

This made the emperor even more irritated. As a father, he couldn't even protect his only daughter; how could he protect a country like this?

Feeling helpless, he could only grit his teeth and try to find other means to heal his beloved daughter. In such a large world, he didn't believe he couldn't find a solution.

A year passed since then. He had been working day and night looking for all kinds of treasures to wake his daughter, but all failed miserably. This left him increasingly discouraged.

"My baby, daddy is so useless."

Looking at Valentina, who resembled his missing wife, when they were both young, before his wife disappeared, she made him promise to take care of their daughter and protect her with all his strength. The promise made that night he could never forget.

"Forgive me, my love, I couldn't take good care of our daughter."

His eyes were already red at this point. He didn't want to lose another person he loved.

Some time later, he forcefully pushed this feeling of sadness to the back of his mind. He couldn't afford to fall here; as long as there was hope, he would surely fight for it.

Extending his hand, he gently stroked the hair and face of his beloved daughter. At that moment, his eyes returned to their sharp and firm look.

Ready to leave, he turned and walked towards the door. After leaving, he closed it. As he was about to leave, his gaze fell on a dark corner.

"Come out," he said.

Soon, a figure emerged from that shadow and walked towards the emperor. Two meters away, he fell to one knee and remained there without saying anything.

The emperor raised an eyebrow for a moment, and half a minute later he asked, "What is the problem?"

Hearing the emperor's question, he knew he could speak.

Without hesitation, he took a scroll from his robes and handed it to the emperor with both hands.

The emperor examined the scroll for a moment and took it. Opening it without hesitation, he began to read. Soon his eyes shone.

After confirming what he read, he conjured a flame and burned the information.

With a smile, he departed, not even paying attention to the figure still kneeling in front of him.

After seeing the emperor leave, the figure looked at Valentina's room, and a complex look was visible behind his mask. Then he disappeared as if he had never been there.

...

Back at Natan's house. After dinner, he apologized to his parents and sisters for his previous actions and said that everything was fine now.

He talked with his parents and sisters for almost an hour. He has to say that his sisters are both very cute.

He liked them a lot. After the conversation, Natan felt less guilty. He thought in his heart that having a family is good.

Later, he returned to his room, pretending he was tired and needed to sleep.

After locking the door, Natan called the system.

"System, it's time to work."

{Sir, I am ready. What are your orders?}

Natan felt that the power system of this world was full of flaws and, after what happened earlier, something tried to interfere with his talent. Curious, he decided to ask.

Raising an eyebrow in doubt, he spoke:

"System, earlier something tried to block you, what was that?"

{Master, they are beings from a higher dimension. They find worlds and alter their rules.}

[The changes in this world were made through the interference of these beings who call themselves gods.]

{Their strength comes from something they call faith. When they find a planet with life,}

[they start to forcibly change the world's rules. Of course, the will of the world will not stand still and let itself be assimilated.]

{The general idea of these gods is to create monsters to kill humans, who, without strength to fight, can only fall into despair. That's when these beings descend and offer means to fight these monsters, making them their believers.}

Natan couldn't believe his ears. He thought everything was the will of the world, as it is in the books he read and learned in school.

But now he discovered that the hole is deeper than he imagined. If this is true, will he be targeted by these beings? What is the difference in strength between them?

Sensing Natan's concern, the system comforted him.

{Host, do not worry about this. First of all, they do not know who the master is. Second, the master's strength is beyond your imagination.}

{Gods or demons, they have to kneel before the master.}

Taking a deep breath to calm his emotions, Natan remembered something.

"System, is that why you erased the system given to awaken a career?"

He had doubts. If that was the case, wouldn't his parents, who are awakened, be in danger?

And his sisters, next year they will go through the ceremony, wouldn't it be dangerous to leave things as they are?

{Host, do not worry about that. The reason I did that is because the awakening system of this world was corrupted.}

{When the monsters invaded, the will of the world tried to protect humans and tried various methods.}

{But the foreign gods were prepared for this. In the middle of the fight, the will of the world found something interesting.}

{Then created the awakening. Everything was going well, but these beings tried to interfere, and in the middle of that, the system was corrupted.}

{According to the will of the world, the awakened were supposed to be able to choose their own jobs along with their talents.}

{After awakening, part of the monster's strength goes to the professional, another part becomes what you call drops, and the third part was sent to strengthen the will of the world.}

{Because of these beings' interference, the plan went wrong, and the will of the world tried to compensate for this with other things.}

{Even though some parts went wrong, the will of the world achieved the most important thing, which was to absorb part of the defeated monsters to strengthen itself.}

{And thanks to that, the will of the world has persisted to this day.}
