An Unwelcomed Rebirth...
'Finally… I've been granted freedom…
Thank you, my Almighty Lord, for such an honour.'
"Old Friend… it is fine.
You have served Us well and patiently all this time.
As Our life comes to an end, We've agreed to end your servitude.
We will leave you with some gifts on your new journey…especially after hearing the many different legends and myths of your homeworld."
'It's the least I could do, after everything you've done for me, my Almighty Lord.'
"Silence, Old Friend.
The people of your past life deserve something rewarding for all you have done for them, even if… *Sigh* Anyway…
Goodluck my Old Friend… I hope you enjoy what I have rewarded you with for you serve throughout eternity."
A cloaked reaper stood before a glooming golden light in the middle of empty space with stars, worlds, and galaxies all around.
Looking on at the golden light with reverence, it soon shot out a beam of light into its cloaked figured, turning it into a melded light of platinum and dark energy.
The consciousness of the cloaked figure fell silent as the golden light spoke up once again, but with heavy sorrow and unease.
"… *Sigh* Old Friend… Forgive me…
I cannot fulfill my promise completely… but I hope this makes up for it… my Old Reaper of Death…"
Another surge of dense light entered the orb of platinum and dark energy that soon took on a melody of colours, many that hadn't even been discovered by sentient lifeform.

"… This… is… NOT WHAT WE AGREED ON, YOU FUCKING MISERABLE BASTARD!!!
Ooo… that felt good~"
A young man no older than 18 screamed aloud as he looked up at the cloudy atmosphere that rumbled as if ready to crackle and strike at any moment.
All around him was baren land that was filled with nothing but stone and chard dark stones that'd been struck again and again by the charged lightning.
Closing his eyes for a moment to regulate his body to accept the heightened senses and muscle strength, the former cloaked reaper slowly dragged himself upright.
"… And you didn't even give me CLOTHES!!!
WHAT THE FUCK OLD MAN?!" Knowing the being of golden light wasn't ever going to chase after him, there was no point in holding back the insults that had accumulated over an eternity of servitude.
Yet, before he could say another world against the golden light, the System decided to interfere and make some decisions to help its Host.
.
*Ding*
[Death Reaper Armour Suit & Cloak equipped!]
.
"… NOT THIS SHIT AGAIN AHHHHHH!!!!"
After noticing the System Notification, his eyes picked up on the dark armour clothing that was much like layered cloth wrapped around his body.
But each layer was made from the strongest material in existence, making it both flexible and soft while also indestructible.
Similarly, the cloak was a larger piece of the same metallic fabric, but its hood feature and length helped it emanate an aura of doom and fear for anyone who dared to learn who was protected by its charm.
The wearer on the other hand, absolutely hated the clothing so much that he was willing to kill himself again to get away from it.
He wore it for so long that it started to haunt him of his past, which wasn't all too pleasant.
His job revolved around capturing souls of the death or those who went against the fate of their destiny.
For a time, he was considered a Criminal of Destiny but after creating a deal of cooperation with the Almighty Lord, he found himself on the other end, and turned into the being he most feared, a Reaper of Death.
However, with his mindset being a little weird and complicated, he took the job given to him seriously, and quickly organised the other Death Reapers into a fearsome force that served their Almighty Lord.
By the time he achieved the title of Lord of the Death Reapers, Fate of Destiny was the clearest it had ever been.
Even when the Almighty Lord was at its strongest, such a feat was impossible to achieve without the Death Reapers being managed properly.
But at this point, with a second chance at existing, he wanted nothing less than to be reminded of his life hunting and reaping souls for the next life and creation.

"Ossus… Ossus…
Wait…!!!
YOU OLD FUCK, DID YOU SEND ME INTO A GODFORSAKEN NIGHTMARE?!!
I SAID I WANTED TO RETURN HOME!!!
FUCK YOU!!!"
{The Being you are cursing is long dead, Master Arlo…}
"… Lady Yeixrian…
H-How a-are you even-"
{After sending you away, the Almighty Lord decided to send me along with you on your journey home…}
{Before you ask for some answers, please check your System Inventory for the small message from the Almighty Lord}
Arlo listened to the voice in his mind as brought up the System Interface and clicked on the Inventory Tab.
The first item in the Inventory signified to Arlo that this was the last gift from the Almighty Lord.
It didn't hit him until he finished listening to the audio sent through by his boss… and friend for an eternity.
"- You've probably figured out that I wasn't able to fulfil your final request and send you back home, but I made sure to leave you a path open.
You just need to find it, Old Friend.
To help you though, I have gifted you a 'Network System' much like those novels you would always tell me about.
I tried my best to give you everything you ever gave me through those tales through eternity, so I hope you can achieve greatness where others have failed.
Goodluck Arlo, and please look after my greatest creation, Yeixrian…
She will be in your care from now.
After all, you're the one to teach me the importance of emotions and life… even if I was the God out of the two of us.
Thank you, Arlo… for being my first and only friend-"
Arlo listened to the voice of the Almighty Lord, as tears formed in his eyes with the audio message disappearing after it finished playing.
"… He's gone, huh…"
{Yes, Master Arlo}
Remaining quiet for a several minutes as the sky rumbled and sparkled with the bright bluish lightning, Arlo digested everything he heard, as the memories of his time with the Almighty Lord flashed through his mind.
"… Hmm… *Sigh* It seems our existences are tied together, Lady Yeixrian."
{Indeed, they are, Master Arlo.}
Sensing the emotion in her words, even though the voice transmitted directly to his mind, Arlo decided to improve their relationship immediately as they were bound together until death it seemed.
"From now on, I will address you as Yeixrian, while you call me Arlo.
We used to serve side by side before… I do not see any reason to stop that cooperation and friendship… Yeixrian."
{As you wish, Arlo}
Sensing the slight joy in her words, Arlo slowly walked away from the barren land to a hilly area that appeared affected through unknown means.
Looking around, Arlo figured the atmosphere wasn't the one to cause such a massive affect.
The land was split in half at several points that added to the already ruined landscape of the planet.
"Yeixrian… am I truly in this horrible universe?"
{You used to talk about its splendour and beauty all the time to our Lord}
"Yes, but that was cause of the films.
I never actually came to this universe.
That was impossible.
All I could describe was what I saw through the films and honestly, it is amazing universe, but it isn't a normal place.
There is too much war and senseless death in this world.
Even now, I can sense its thick aura throughout the galaxy and especially this Star System."
{Our Lord thought it would be best if you started the journey from this universe, rather than one with barely anything to offer you in the terms of growth}
"So… where do I start?"
{Scout and scavenge across this planet.
You might find something with great value and potential for the future.
Most of all, you can plant one of the gifted Seeds, so I can help manage the planet and its health, for instance, if you decide to take over it and become a monarch}
Arlo stopped dead in his tracks, only for a lightning bolt to strike a couple of inches from his toes, yet the bolt wasn't the result of him stopping still.
"Monarch…?
Yeixrian… tell me, did our Lord ask this of you, or is this your own thought?"
Besides her creator, Arlo was the next best person to know how she behaved and processed information as a Divine Spirit that was forged with the matrix of an Artificial Intelligence.
While she had free will to an extent, Arlo knew Yeixrian wasn't one to bring up random ideas, like being a monarch without it being set up in her mind.
He figured their Lord wanted him to do something in this universe that was normal or easy.
Before Arlo could ask Yeixrian for an answer, she provided a thorough answer.
{… While I wasn't happy with the decision at the time, our Lord believed it was a good idea.
He brought you to this universe to stop the chaos that will arrive soon enough, leaving behind a stain that can never be completely removed.
Our Lord hoped you might be able to take on a leadership role, much like you have done previously, and lead this universe into a glorious future}
'That old prick still hasn't stopped with the sneaky tricks and foresight bullshit…
Hope you choke on your tongue in the afterlife, Almighty…' Arlo thought in his mind as he walked away from the open clearing and entered a small cave that kept him away from the lightning and harsh weather.
{The Radix Network System was created to help you with managing the universe you may take over and further on, so that's why I worked with our Lord to offer you the best possible start in life within this universe and beyond}
{For the three Player Creation Cards, you can form several individuals as you see fit to help with your plans and goals.
If you went on and created a General for your future army, then they would be formed based on your choices for the appearance and certain skills, which will probably be enhanced because of our Lord.
They will also retain access to the System with some adopted options of your current System Operations, where they can improve their skills and abilities through issued rewards.
Similarly, you are able to do the same thing with the Solider Creation Card, as the System will recognise them as Players who are connected to you, so you will gain a percentage of their experience}
{Your Race, Sai-Graorian, is problematic enough in this universe, as your strength will reach a point where it won't be matched by others.
Even now, your affinity to the Energy of the universe, also known as the Force, has exceeded everything else.
Once you start training, it'll begin to make sense but for now, I can say that you're able to channel all four known aspects of the Force, even though your incredibly rare species allows you wield the source of even if the Force and the universe.
The Void…}
Pausing for a moment, Arlo started to shake out of pure excitement and fear.
The part of him that felt excited was keen to control and utilise the most destructive energy of the world.
The other half said was terrified by the knowledge that even the Almighty Lord struggled at times to control a minuscule amount of the Void Energy and Essence.
{Your Race as a Sai-Graorian, with the new influence from the StarDragon, allows you to draw power from the Void itself instead of the Force because you are far too powerful for it to fuel you.
Instead, you've turned into a generator of sorts and will help increase and manage the Force through the flourishing plants that will come from the gifted Seeds you've received.
I suggest you start developing this world before moving on elsewhere…}
Yeixrian hoped Arlo would start right away and bring forth the Seeds as per her instructions, but he continued moving deeper into the cave until it opened up further on.
{Why haven't you followed my instructions?
It is sound and logical plan, Arlo}
"I understand that, but right now, there are valuable items I need to find before we start playing around with the planet and crush the goods without knowing it."
Yeixrian knew a whole lot about the universe but not to the extent Arlo understood it.
Even though he recounted most of it to their Almighty Lord, from whom she learnt everything, it still wasn't everything since Arlo retained some information for a later time.
One of the stories he hadn't spoken of just yet was the Neti Jedi Master, Ood Bnar.
As head Librarian of the Great Jedi Library on Ossus, he was left behind during the attack of the Sith Empire who tried to destroy the Star System by creating a supernova in the nearby Cron Cluster.
No idea where the Jedi Master might be, Arlo used the Force to help find him.
Unlike anything he'd experienced before, the Force spoke to him endlessly, like a needy child was speaking to their parent and wanted their attention.
Through his incredibly Rare species, and affinity to the Void Energy Source, Arlo was constantly feeding the ever hungry Force with pure power that wasn't influence by Light or Darkness.
All Arlo had to do was ask for their help finding a Jedi and the Force immediately replied through the Midi-Chlorians.
Nobody could see the Midi-Chlorians unless they were blessed by the Force, but in Arlo's case it was possible to switch his sight easily to see them.
If he wanted to, he could directly interact with them, as their appearance was similar to platinum flakes in the air.
When Arlo sent out his thoughts to the Midi-Chlorians, they started to reform themselves in the air and create arrows that led the way through the cave tunnels.
Just as he neared the location of the Jedi Master, with the Midi-Chlorians condensing in greater number the closer they got, Arlo asked Yeixrian an important question.
"What year am I in?
Am I close to the Naboo Invasion or still quite some time away?"
{46 BBY, 14 years before the events of the Trade Federation's blockade}
"… Isn't this too much time?
How long did our Lord think I would require fixing this universe?"
{You need to not only save the universe from itself, but external problems in the future and what arises from your actions.
For now, it's best to focus on building your strength if you wish to be a step ahead of your enemies.
One of my suggestions is to recruit outside of the System's help and recruit Jedi Master Dooku}
