“So, are you saying that Konosuba is the original World’s Will of it world? The first conscience of the world named Konosuba?” After reading the message a few times, Leo slowly asked.

[#######(DXD World’s Will): Yes, exactly like that. In this multiverse and from the source, the Wills that existed from the moment their world was created for the first time. These are the Archetype World’s Wills] 

“And because of that, ‘he’s’ like your elder or ancestor?” Leo rubbed his temples because he got a slight headache.

[#######(DXD World’s Will): Although those terms don’t necessarily apply to our worlds, pretty much, yes.]

Rubbing his temples, Leo cleared his headache that was mostly caused by his soul. From what he understood, the Archetypes World’s Wills are the Wills that existed from the birth of their world, not the beginning of time… if ‘time’ existed in this scenario.

“Are you sure that I should know this?”  After a few moments, he said those words in a monotone voice. To be honest, Leo felt this information was pushing the boundary between what can be told and not.

[#######(DXD World’s Will): Don’t worry, it’s not like ‘he’s’ keeping it a secret]

“I see” Not thinking much about it, Leo cleared his head and said ” So, what is special about these Archetype World’s Wills? Except they survived until this day, of course”

[#######(DXD World’s Will):…. Well… you see… I don’t know exactly]

“…..” Leo looked at the screen in silence. The look in his eyes was completely enough to make DXD embarrassed.

[#######(DXD World’s Will): Those Worlds Wills are very rare… very, very rare… ]

“….” Leo continued staring in silence. His two different colored inhuman eyes, which looked at two parallel realities, were clearly judgmental now.

[#######(DXD World’s Will): It’s not easy to know anything about them…so… yeah…hmmmm]

“You’re useless” Hearing those cold words, DXD snapped immediately.

[#######(DXD World’s Will): Don’t you dare judge me! Do you think this information can be known easily?! A lot of worlds don’t even know a single Archetype World’s Will, some don’t know they even existed! And you aren’t better than me! Do you know anything?! Do you know something?!]

“Oh, I think I missed the memo that said I’m a World Will, crazy isn’t it?” Leo stated calmly as DXD’s wrath popped like a balloon.

[#######(DXD World’s Will): Honestly, I don’t know much about that creepy guy. I only know that compared to me, who is a new generation, ‘he’ can control his world to a huge degree. Like ‘he’ almost playing sandbox. ]

Leo nodded. Konosuba really has an extraordinary ability to manipulate his world, unlike any world he saw before. If someone who doesn’t know the plot enters it, no, even if they know the plot, they’ll be like dolls in ‘his’ hands.

Kaguya’s situation showed that clearly. If not because the World’s Will wasn’t targeting her specifically, she would never be able to find out the anomaly. To be honest, that ability can allow ‘him’ to eradicate invaders on ‘his’ own.

“Hmmm, you said you’re a New Generation World’s Will?” Leo noticed a new term in the message.

[#######(DXD World’s Will): A classification of our World’s Wills, it’s like Archetype World’s Will. The New Generation means the World’s Wills that have just been born lately after being destroyed. You can count me and Akame Ga Kill’s Will here]

“Hmmm… So, you’re just a little kid” Leo nodded while fixing his glasses before he said innocently.

He felt that it all made sense now. Why Root, Toaru, and the current Konosuba are so difficult to deal with, yet this DXD is so easy.

[#######(DXD World’s Will): You’re a kid! Your whole existence is childish! Don’t put the dumb concept of growing up that mortals have on us worlds! We perceive ‘time’ much differently!]

“Sure, sure” Waving his hand casually, Leo nodded before he said ” All of you can control the world to a certain extent, right?”

[#######(DXD World’s Will): It’s different from a World’s Will to another. Making tiny changes is acceptable, but more movement is very hard to achieve, so we generally never use it, especially in the case of an attack.]

“Hmmm, yet this Konosuba uses it completely free, even in the presence of an invader” Leo nodded as he thought about the information he just got.

[#######(DXD World’s Will): To be honest, if you want to understand more, you should ask Root. She’s the most likely to know something. Once I heard from her that Konosuba is researching for something after… *shiver*]

“Nah, Root will never say it” Leo denied the suggestion immediately. Root will never reveal something casually unless she wants to and she’ll probably try to switch the subject until the other party gives up.

“But what is ‘he’ looking for? Does it have something to do with the Multiversal Spaces?” Leo tapped his forehead and asked. If he can know this information, things might become much clearer, but he’s optimistic.

[#######(DXD World’s Will): Who knows, I only heard it has something to do with ‘THE GREAT’, but I’m not sure like you said, Root doesn’t explain a lot of things]

“‘THE GREAT’?” Leo lifted his eyebrow at this term.

[#######(DXD World’s Will): I have no idea what it is. All other worlds have a firm rule of report immediately if you heard something about it]

 “……” Leo was speechless again before he whispered  “You’re useless”

DXD’s felt a volcano eruption in ‘her’ ‘head’ before it all turned into wrath.

[#######(DXD World’s Will): Damn you! I swear to the source if it wasn’t because you were in my world from the start, I’d kick you to oblivion!!]

“Although it’s harsh, I’ll totally kick myself to oblivion” Leo agreed to DXD’s words, which made ‘her’ angrier, but his attention was attracted by something else.

{But why you… why this world} Despite his outer look, Leo was thinking about other matters.

To be honest, there are a couple of worlds much more suitable for him than this one. Worlds that have deep search about souls and origins of reality like Type-Moon or ToAru are very suitable for someone like him. Believe it or not, the power system there involves who has the more magical loose screws in their heads and Leo doesn’t lack them.

“*Sigh*” Sighing, Leo threw those thoughts from his head and said “I feel all of this is just a big conspiracy for some reason”

Leo sat down on the rooftop edge, watching the people go and come underneath. This makes you wonder how they will feel if they know that their race’s natural nemesis is just near the corner.

[#######(DXD World’s Will): Hm? What do you mean?]

“Type-Moon’s mission, Konosuba’s mission, they feel off for some reason. Is this really a coincidence?” Leo’s words made DXD flinch for a moment.

[#######(DXD World’s Will):….. Elaborate]

DXD was slightly nervous because ‘she’ was the one that made Root send the Type-Moon’s mission. This is the same mission that made Leo lose brain cells… literally.

“You see, I saw some things that didn’t appear by chance. Starting with Ritsuka’s system in Type-Moon to the crystal that Konosuba gave Kaguya. Both of these two things go beyond the usual trend of the mission, which is searching and destroying the invaders” Leo continued to say as DXD’s nervousness turned into confusion.

[#######(DXD World’s Will): Aren’t you too paranoid? Root wouldn’t do something like that]

“Am I? Well, don’t get me wrong. As long as it isn’t something excessive, you World’s Wills can use our assistance in any matter, after all, we’re employees and this is what this Chat Room is here for. You guys even pay us” Leo spoke slowly and calmly as DXD kept listening

“But! That doesn’t mean that I’ll ignore weird situations. Maybe I’m thinking too much, but these two missions coming at the same time from two special worlds… Do you really feel this is a coincidence? “Leo’s words were like a hammer hitting on DXD’s ‘head’.

Inside the core of the world, DXD’s Worlds Wills, who took the shape of a white sphere, kept moving left and right while thinking about Leo’s words.

{Wait, no… This can’t be true, right?} DXD kept raking its ‘mind’ to reach an answer, but how to say it, Leo made a lot of sense.

Root is one of the developers of the Chat Room, so she can easily know what happens in it, especially the accident in Asgard. Using that information, she can guess what DXD was going to do and how Leo was going to respond.

DXD wanted to fix it world, but ‘she’ was too lazy to force it, so she wanted Leo to do it, but he proposed more destruction and Toaru was cheering from the back! Just like that, Root knew that DXD would… ask for her help.

Thinking about it, Root loves to make new projects to help their cause and maybe she made a deal with Konosuba, The ArcheType World’s Will, to help her in exchange for something, which was…

{The Crystal… Chaldea Channel… Wait, wait! Let’s not jump to conclusions! Will they really do something like that…} In DXD’s mind, two figures appeared.

Root smiling gently, but for some reason, DXD always felt a slight chill because of it. Then it was Konosuba’s grey, weird body and the creepy 🙂 on his empty face.

DXD froze for a moment before she exploded like a volcano “THEY PLAYED ME!!! I’M SO MAD!!!”

DXD finally understood why Toaru was looking at ‘her’ with pity!! It was all a fucking conspiracy! ‘She’ got bamboozled!! These two missions were a team effort from Root and Konosuba!!

In all of ‘her’ existence, DXD never felt so mad before. ‘She’ wasn’t mad because they used ‘her’, no, the World’s Wills trust each other a lot, DXD knew they might have a good reason behind this act, but ‘she’s’ so angry because they didn’t tell her anything!!

{Why? Why did they do this?! Did they use me as a cover or decoy to hide from something?! Do they think I can’t keep a secret?!… oh} DXD’s wrath deflated like a balloon before she stopped.

Well, ‘she’ can see that they have a point and also… DXD can’t do anything to them.

“Yo, you still there” Looking at DXD becoming silent, Leo waited for a minute before he got a replay.

[#######(DXD World’s Will): Shut it! I’m angry!]

“You’re really a kid” With an unimpressed expression, Leo said calmly.

[#######(DXD World’s Will): Shut it! You aren’t better than me!!]

“Hmmmmm” Looking at the silent chat, Leo glanced at the people walking in the streets as a period of silence fell on the place.

“Thank you for telling me this” After a while, Leo whispered those words as DXD, who was busy thinking about the big conspiracy, was surprised.

[#######(DXD World’s Will): Hah?! Are you okay?]

“You know what I mean” Leo didn’t need to say more as DXD understood.

At the end of this matter, DXD wasn’t obligated to tell Leo anything about Konosuba or about Archetype World’s Will.

 [#######(DXD World’s Will): Hmph, I could accept more sincere thanks, you know]

“Thank you very much” Leo said with a completely monotone voice, which made DXD sigh.

[#######(DXD World’s Will):….]

“….”

Then silence filled the place as VI became smaller and rested on Leo’s lap.

Leo started petting it dragon’s heads while comforting. To be honest, VI is doing much better than him. At least, VI didn’t proceed to launch judgment day from the 0.000001s when it heard about God’s death, maybe because it’s a Human Evil?

[#######(DXD World’s Will): Hey, do you really want to build a technique to jump between worlds?]

“Yes” Leo didn’t look up to see the Chat Screen because his clairvoyance can see it.

He didn’t know it before, but it seems these World’s Wills can really open the chat and even make new tabs as much as they like.

[#######(DXD World’s Will): Do you think you can pull it off? And in this condition?]

“No, to be honest, I’m not very optimistic” Leo knows how many loopholes this plan has.

 First of all, Konosuba World’s Will might not even allow it and this will automatically declare the spell as a failure. Leo has all the reasons to believe that if the World’s Will wanted, his clairvoyance can’t even take a glimpse at their worlds, much less trying to enter them.

[#######(DXD World’s Will): And you’re still doing it?]

“Yeah, well, we’ll see when we get there” Leo nodded gently.

[#######(DXD World’s Will): Wow, mad scientist mentality]

“So, what do you also want to ask?” Leo patted VI’s heads as he felt it getting better.

[#######(DXD World’s Will): Huh?]

“There’s no other reason for you to remain here, no?” Leo talked like stating the obvious.

[####### (DXD World’s Will):….. You know, if you become less blunt, you’ll become more popular. *Sigh* Tell me, what do you think about those devils and don’t think that I don’t know your plan]

After thinking for a while in peace, DXD reached the answer to the reason why this guy is messing with its plot, it’s because he wanted to experiment on destiny.

The so-called keeping the original trajectory while making the protagonist a female is a test to see how destiny reacts and how to maneuver around it more effectively. This bastard has been planning this from the start and even the other bastard (Toaru) supported him.

What can DXD say? A person with a super quantum computer for a brain and a future vision can really think far ahead of where few can expect.

“Them? I don’t hate them, neither do I like them, to be honest, I don’t care about their existence in general. Seriously, I don’t know more than half of their names” Leo said calmly before he glanced at Kuoh Academy from here ” Even so, I’m a little curious about what you did after I left”

It was the weekend, so there weren’t any students on the campus, but Leo didn’t care as he closed his eyes for a moment.

When he opened them, Leo glanced at the devils again, but this time, his vision became a little blurry before his eyes flashed with weird ethereal light. At this moment, everything about the world became different.

Although he usually calls it clairvoyance, the correct and general term is psychic. A psychic is an abnormal ability gained as a result of comprehending a common sense, or a perception of reality not native to humans.

The regular reality that humans perceive in their everyday life is very limited. They can only understand very few common aspects of reality because they only receive information by their five senses and mainly by the reflection of light.

A psychic goes beyond those ‘common channels’ and access to the truth about reality that normal humans can’t imagine. Some might see the future, past, or even death like mystic eyes of death perception, each of these are ‘extra channels’ that are beyond the ‘common channels’. 

Leo also possesses his own ‘extra channel’, a channel that makes his mind and eyes able to perceive the ‘flaws’ of the world. This is mainly his ability as an Esper.

When using abilities like Clairvoyance or a psychic in general, if you’re strong enough and you’re sure your brain won’t burn, then there’s a huge difference between ‘look’ and ‘see’. Usually, ‘look’ means to direct your eyes in a particular direction, but ‘see’ is an entirely different concept.

It’s to understand and comprehend. Rather than just looking at the object directly, you can ‘see’ the truth behind it and ‘understand the reason behind the phenomenon’. This is exactly what Leo is doing now. He switched his vision from ‘look’ to ‘see’.

Now even if Leo’s ‘extra channel’ is mainly in the present and regardless of the fact that he doesn’t know half the names of those devils, just by this single glance, he can know their names, their thoughts, their goals, their dreams, their ambitions. Give him a few moments, and he’ll understand them more than they’ll ever understand themselves.

However, he didn’t bother with that information as he looked for something else, a general look at the situation that involved these devils. These devils have quite the background, to be honest, the sister of one of the four Satans (heh), the daughter of one of the fallen angels leaders, etc… Just by using these connections and clairvoyance, he can achieve a general understanding of the situation.

 “You actually did this” Leo lifted his eyebrow as his eyes returned to normal.

[####### (DXD World’s Will): I know, I’m awesome]

DXD bragged without a shame, but when Leo thought ‘she’ll’ go like this for a few minutes, ‘she’ suddenly went quiet before sending a simple message.

[####### (DXD World’s Will):… Were you really going to blast those devils across dimensions just to make me appear?]

“Yes” Leo’s answer was short and without hesitation in his tone.

[####### (DXD World’s Will): *Sigh* I should have guessed … you’re genuinely a kind person]

“…?!” This time, it was Leo that was shocked by this message.

[####### (DXD World’s Will): Let me ask if Saji was here, would you do it?]

“What do you mea- ” Leo wanted to continue, but DXD’s message made him halt.

[####### (DXD World’s Will): You don’t care about those devils, but the only reason you involve them now is that you wanted to meet me and get information, even the destiny experiment is the same… And you know what that information is for…]

“……” Leo became silent.

[####### (DXD World’s Will): I saw a lot of people who claimed to be kind, but honestly, you… regardless if you succeed or not, and without considering that you have an injury in your soul, the first thing you plan is to make a technique to travel across the world… while any sane person would choose to heal themselves]

“…..”

[####### (DXD World’s Will): Although I’m not that familiar with Root and Toaru worlds’ power systems, I at least know that being an Angel and a Beast really affect the mind and thoughts and might even drive people, even deities to lose control, but here you are…]

“….”

[####### (DXD World’s Will): Despite adding things like Humanity Evil and Trecedencance Angel, your ‘essence’, ‘ Origin’, and ‘True Will’ are still the same, like all the time I watched you…]

“…”

[####### (DXD World’s Will): A very specific, with weird and mostly questionable ways, but still… a genuinely kind person, a kind fool?]

“….. What are you? A world or a stalker? If you’re saying this because you want to stop the plot wrecking” Leo’s hand stopped on VI’s head.

[####### (DXD World’s Will): Am I? Maybe because this is the first and true-time we’re face to face, well, Chat Room and I’m a world… Anyway, we’ll argue about that thing after this is over, for now, hey, I suddenly have a grudge on Konosuba.

 If you kindly decide to mess with his world, I’ll be grateful and I can even provide some help as long as you erase that creepy 🙂 off his dumb face!]

Looking at DXD back to ‘her’ childish behaviors, Leo didn’t speak for a while before he said ” I need the full footage of the time I transformed in Asgard, every detail”

[####### (DXD World’s Will): Oh, right, you can’t even glance at those things, heh. Well, here you go]

Without a shocking scene, Leo got a notification in the Chat Room.

[####### (DXD World’s Will): And remember, no EXE! That’s the price of the footage, those are my memories,  you know? Jeez! What the hell do you want by messing with that reality now?!]

With those few complaints, DXD left the private chat as Leo stayed sitting here in silence.

“*Sigh* You bastard… Root and now even you, I lost… a World’s Will is a World’s Will in the end, huh?” After some time, Leo whispered those words softly.

{Hmmm… So, you’re weak to sincere words, huh?} From nowhere, Ddraig decided to speak as a vein almost popped on Leo’s head.

However, Venom, Black Barrel, VI, and Leo’s other beasts nodded slowly.

“Shut it! You little…” Leo wanted to have a long talk with these guys, but suddenly, the screen that DXD left flashed.

“Hm?” Looking at the messages on the screen, Leo blinked.

[Advocate of Gender Equality: LEOOOOOO!!! YOU TRAITOR!!! I’M SO JEALOUS, no, wait, I mean, YOU BETRAYED US!!!]

[NEET Princess: *GASP* Saber Face!! Leo, you bastard!!]

The Chat Room… has exploded with spamming messages… again.
