Kireina had transformed from her butterfly form into that of a beautiful and enchanting fairy woman, sitting cross-legged while floating in the air, she began to explain a few keywords that Ervas and Veronica did not comprehend well.

​​

"Very well, this is all info I've gotten from the memories of the Gods I have eaten, and also from what Agatheina had told me," said Kireina.

"Who's Agatheina?" asked Veronica.

"Ah, she is the Goddess of Vampires of my current world, Genesis. She is a beauty and I recently bedded her, fufu…" said Kireina.

"Not interested in that story, please continue with the previous topic," said Ervas.

"W-Well, not like I was going to tell it or anything… Anyways, when I speak about 'Laws' is simply that, laws! Laws of what, you might wonder? Of the world. Each world has its own laws, laws that they exert for things to maintain existing, they could also be attributed to the fabric of reality that makes up this world, and also the spatial layers, layers of space that makeup existence as a whole, and can connect to many new worlds and planes…" said Kireina.

"So they're like a natural phenomenon? Like gravity in a planet and all of that?" asked Veronica.

"Yes, indeed, Veronica-san. World's Laws are a natural phenomenon in every world in the vast existence. Each world has its own laws, some parallel worlds that are pretty similar share similar laws, sometimes even identical. These Laws are what suppress me, someone without an Origin of Kritias. But thanks to my dear boy Ervas here, I am capable of bonding with his soul as his summoned creature, sharing his Origin with me," said Kireina.

"I see…" said Ervas.

"But what do you mean by Origin? It is very related to the world?" asked Veronica.

"Indeed, Veronica-san. An Origin is… well, your origin, where you come from. It's a connection, a permanent one, that you can have with a world. All of us originally have an Origin of our own Earths, and I believe that we still possess it within our souls. And then, we got another Origin from the worlds we were reincarnated into by the means of a God or higher entity. So you two have the Origin of your Earth and the Origin of Kritias and Mirror Kritias," said Kireina.

"So that's how it is… Well, that explains a ton of things… And also gives me even more questions," said Veronica.

"Hm. In resume, all Worlds have their own Laws and Origins, any living being born there has the Origin of that world naturally, while otherworldly beings have to get the Origin granted to them through someone, another being of enough power to create and gift Origins… Right? And then, the laws serve to maintain the world existence and also to suppress external beings from other worlds or planes that don't have the Origin of the world… Oh, like the immune system?" asked Ervas.

"That's right, laws are kind of like that, they suppress you constantly… I tried doing this once, using my Void Magic to travel to another world, and I was suppressed to the point that my soul, which you've seen to be strong, was being disintegrated…" said Kireina.

"Y-Your main soul?!" asked Veronica.

"Yes, if it wasn't because of Ervas here… and well, you as well, Veronica, I would be constantly taking damage directly into my soul, and my Primordial Essence would be constantly leaking out as if I were bleeding… If it continued for a bit, I would simply disappear and stop existing altogether," said Kireina.

"That's horrible! So a world itself can just kill you?!" asked Veronica.

"Now that's new… Does this means that worlds themselves are like… alive or something?" asked Ervas.

"Kind of, think of them as whole entities, bodies where we inhabit as cells… Kind of like that. And here I am. I am like an external pathogen or a cancerous cell that is being undetected because I am 'faking' my form (origin)," said Kireina.

"Even this world? Kritias? The one made by literal corpses?" asked Veronica.

"Indeed, this world is interesting in that it was made by the corpses of two gods with tremendous power… But indeed, the world made from their corpses is still 'alive' by itself… From what I got as info from the gods, there was some pretty secret info between the gods of my world. Such as that the world of Genesis, and I am assuming the same for every other world, has what's called 'Origin Core', an ethereal yet physical crystal-like core of tremendous power, that harbors all of the source energy of a world, this core is what makes up a world… And no, I do not mean a planet, this is the core of the whole 'universe' of this world… As we can see, it is obvious that no two exact Earths will exist in the same galaxy, right? So we are talking about universal level stuff here…" said Kireina.

"That's crazy… So we are getting into universal territory now?!" asked Veronica.

"I don't think I am ready yet…" said Ervas.

"Hahaha! Calm down, calm down. I am not going to tell you to go to outer space or something, don't be like that… For now, you two must concentrate on what you want to do now… and well, in dealing with the pests coming this way. I am not as strong as my main body, but I would have liked to beat the crap out of them so you two could have a breather…" said Kireina, already having been informed about the humans that were about to move inside of the Devil Forest as a crusade to finally kill Ervas and Veronica, such info was gathered by Ervas and Veronica's Undead Bugs which they sent towards the nearby Aquaria Kingdom, in the Duchy of Sapphira, where everything was being prepared for the crusade.

"So not now? What a relief…" said Veronica.

"I think I can get into universal-level stuff, but not for now…" said Ervas.

"Don't worry about that for now," said Kireina while waving her hand.

"However, there is another word you used earlier… What's Primordial Essence and Source Energy?" asked Veronica.

"Oh yeah…" said Ervas.

"Oh! That! You see, Primordial Essence is primordial energy, the essence of all souls and in a way, of everything. You could call it the principle of existence too, but I believe there might be more things I do not know,"

"Our souls are all made out of this energy, this essence, and even with our bodies dying, our souls always remain existing, right? It is often impossible to destroy them unless you have the power to absorb primordial essence or make it dissipate… as we do,"

"Gods have a higher quality of this essence, making it 'Divine' and granting them what could be called immortality, no matter how much you damage their souls they won't die, right? Well, they can still die, or be eaten, or absorbed through our special means, which target the Primordial Essence directly!"

"Gods have their Primordial Essence enclosed in their Divinity and something else that I have not discovered yet… Like this, even with the power of other gods, it is often impossible to directly target the Primordial Essence that is making the soul up…"

"However, our ability to break and eat souls, and those of gods, is unique in that regard, we can target the primordial essence… Ah well, in my world, mortal souls can be eaten without those skills, as there are a lot of widespread techniques to eat them and all of that… But I guess that in here, that's a bit different…" said Kireina.

"I see… Genesis is really a terrifying world, and it seems to be way older than Kritias…" said Veronica.

"I think it is…" said Kireina.

"That explains why there are many advancements that don't exist in here…" said Ervas.

"Kind of… Ah! And source energy is like the special kind of energy within any world, each world always has a different energy, even if it might be called mana in every world or something, there is something that always makes them unique and different from another world. Ah, and this transfer in energy can change the quality or number that appears… Like me. I actually was given 20000 Mana by my main body, but when all of that was translated in here, I actually got a bit over two hundred million Mana," said Kireina.

"T-Two hundred million mana?! But you are a summoned creature! Isn't that way too much?!" asked Veronica.

"Hehe, oops," said Kireina.

"No, that's good, Mana is always useful and required here," said Ervas.

"Exactly~ Think as me as a Mana Battery! I will go around giving you Mana all the time, so you two have yet another layer of Mana," said Kireina.

"Our Mana is already ridiculously high! …But that's good, I guess," said Veronica.

"This has been greatly enlightening… There was so much we didn't know, so many things that have been always right in front of us, but we never realized what they were," said Ervas.

"Yeah… And there are things we still don't even know about," said Veronica.

"Well, that includes me as well, we can discover them together. We are like a team now," said Kireina as her crimson eyes shined brightly with excitement.

"So where is Kireina sleeping?" asked Veronica.

"Hm, I didn't think about that…" said Ervas.

"Ah~ I can sleep with this little boy in here, I will make sure to be his mommy and bring him warmness through his sleep," said Kireina with a gentle smile.

"No," said Ervas.

"Yeah you either become a butterfly or we throw you into your own room," said Veronica.

"E-Eh? Ah well, okay then," said Kireina, converting into a butterfly.
