After reaching home, AK dropped the topic of Maya's power and identity. To him, sleep was more important at that moment. Before going to bed, he used up all his mana on the dragon egg once again, exhausting himself completely, and fell into a deep slumber.
The next morning, AK spoke seriously to RED.
"Even after ten years of the Great Catastrophe, the Top 10 hunters have only managed to reach SSS rank. But in just one month, Maya reached SS rank!" AK said in disbelief.
[ RED : I THINK YOU FORGET SOMETHING . HAVING SS OR S RANK CLASS IS DIFFERENT FROM BEING IN SS OR S RANK. MAYA ONLY HAS SS AND S RANK CLASSES, NOT THAT SHE IS ON SS RANK. ]
"Oh… looks like I forgot," AK said with a sheepish smile. "I want to know more about the Entities' World where you live now. And… what about our enemies? Can't they find you and kill you?"
[ RED : IT'S NOT THAT EASY TO KILL A PRIMORDIAL BEING. KILLING EVEN ONE CAN CAUSE DRASTIC CHANGES TO THE WORLD. THAT'S WHY THE FOURTH WALL DOESN'T LET ANYONE—NOT EVEN GODS—PASS INTO A PRIMORDIAL BEING'S TERRITORY. ]
[ RED : CURRENTLY, I HAVE THE BIGGEST TERRITORY AMONG ALL PRIMORDIAL BEINGS. ]
"So… the weakest Primordial Being has the biggest territory in the entire Entities' World?" AK asked, half teasing.
[ RED : EVEN IF I HAVE THE LOWEST TRUST COIN IN THE ENTITY WORLD, I HAVE POSSESSED THE LARGEST TERRITORY FOR 10,000 YEARS. ]
"That's why you also have the largest territory even in this timeline… or verse… whatever," AK said with a smirk. "But then, how can you talk freely about the whole world when the first time you mentioned the world ending, the Fourth Wall blocked you?"
[ RED : ONLY THIS THING MAKES ME CURIOUS ABOUT THE FOURTH WALL THAT I CREATED IN MY NOVEL BUT THIS FOURTH WALL IS COMPLETELY DIFFERENT. ]
"Is this also the gods' doing?" AK asked curiously.
[ RED : NO. THE FOURTH WALL IS FAR MORE POWERFUL THAN THE STRONGEST GOD AND ALL OTHER GODS COMBINED. ]
"Then who's the strongest god?" AK asked with intrigue.
[ RED : THE STRONGEST GOD IS THE GOD OF ALL-KNOWING AND CREATION — 'KAIDEN'. ]
"What a cool name for the strongest god," AK said with admiration.
[ RED : ONE MORE THING MAKES ME CURIOUS. IF THE FOURTH WALL IS NOT ACTING DURING OUR CONVERSATIONS, IT MEANS EITHER MY KNOWLEDGE IS WRONG OR THE FOURTH WALL THINKS OF ME AS SOMEONE MORE POWERFUL THAN ITSELF. ]
[ RED : AND I AM SURE THAT NO ONE IS MORE POWERFUL THAN THE FOURTH WALL, BECAUSE AFTER A FEW YEARS, THE FOURTH WALL WILL GAIN CONSCIOUSNESS AND CREATE ITS OWN BODY. ]
"Isn't there any way to make contact with the Fourth Wall?" AK asked, leaning forward.
[ RED : CURRENTLY, NO. BECAUSE IT DOESN'T HAVE CONSCIOUSNESS YET. OUR MAIN TASK IS TO CONTACT THE GOD OF CURIOSITY, AND FOR THAT, YOU NEED TO BECOME STRONGER. ]
"What about going to the Red Fort in Delhi? Isn't it also in ruins and could serve as the perfect altar for the God of Curiosity?" AK suggested.
[ RED : THAT'S ALSO A GOOD CHOICE, BUT FIRST FOCUS ON REACHING S RANK. THE LIMIT OF THE HUMAN BODY IS SSSS RANK. MY SYSTEM WILL HELP YOU GROW ONLY TO THAT POINT; AFTER THAT, IT DEPENDS ON THE GOD OR FACTION YOU CHOOSE — ANGEL OR DEMON. ]
"I need to choose my faction too?" AK asked.
[ RED : IT'S NOT IMPORTANT, BUT INCREASING YOUR LEVEL TO 25 IS. AFTER THAT, YOU CAN CHOOSE ANY CLASS YOU LIKE. ]
[ RED : ONE MORE THING — EVERY 5 YEARS, ALL GODS AND PRIMORDIAL BEINGS HAVE A MEETING. THIS TIME, SINCE I'M IN THE PLACE OF THIS PRIMORDIAL BEING, I CAN LEARN MORE ABOUT THIS WORLD AND HELP YOU BETTER. ]
"That's great news! Is there any other incarnation like Shadman?" AK asked with interest.
[ RED : THERE ARE MANY INCARNATIONS IN THIS WORLD LIKE SHADMAN — OF DIFFERENT GODS, ANGELS, PRIMORDIAL BEINGS, DEMONS, AND DEMON KINGS. ]
"Gods, Primordial Beings, and Demon Kings having incarnations makes sense… but how can mere angels and demons have theirs?" AK asked with doubt.
[ RED : I DON'T KNOW WHY. I JUST WANTED TO ADD IT IN MY NOVEL, SO I DID. ]
"One more thing — you've said before you created this world as part of your novel. Somehow, the Fourth Wall doesn't censor or block that… but when you talk about the end of the world, it acts immediately. Why?" AK asked.
[ RED : I SERIOUSLY DON'T KNOW WHY. FOR NOW, JUST FOCUS ON LEVELING UP. I'M GOING TO SLEEP FOR 1 MONTH. IF YOU DON'T KNOW, EVERY YEAR A PRIMORDIAL BEING SLEEPS FOR 1 MONTH. ]
"You're going to sleep and I need to do all the work myself?" AK said with frustration.
[ RED : THAT'S NOT MY PERSONAL CHOICE. IF A PRIMORDIAL BEING DOESN'T SLEEP FOR 1 MONTH, THEY DIE. IT'S ONE OF THE FEW WAYS TO KILL THEM. ]
"Alright, I understand. But how will I level up in one month without you?" AK asked.
[ RED : JUST COLLECT AS MANY MANA STONES AS YOU CAN. ONCE I WAKE UP, I WILL INCREASE YOUR LEVEL. ]
"I'll have to keep raiding boring D, E, and F rank dungeons for a whole month? Isn't there another way?" AK groaned.
[ RED : NO, THERE ISN'T. ]
"Fine. Go to sleep, I'm heading out for today's dungeon raid," AK said, grabbing his gear.
[ RED : IT'S FAREWELL. MAKE SURE TO SURVIVE 1 MONTH WITHOUT ME. ]
"I've survived 10 years without you or anyone's help… one month is nothing," AK said with a confident smile.
