Cursed to level 1 with an Ego weapon

Demisaus, in the flesh and literal bone, is in front of me, trying to convey words of a warning.

"Tell me, young vulpin from another world. What do you know about the creation of this world?"

"W-well... At first I thought it had to do with the egg of an old ancient being that existed from the creation of the universe... but when I came here, someone told me it is another story."

Demisaus nods towards me with her soft smile in front.

"You have heard right, my little vulpin."

I don't like being called little, it feels condescending.

"The world was created from an egg, made by the being at the center of chaos and destruction." She moves a hand and a red ball appears. Then a golden sphere comes out and travels a long distance. It slowly turns into the World.

Three lights appear and they start circling the World.

"We made this world how we wanted, a land where the races would grow and become stronger, where anyone would have a chance to be what they want and live their best life... until..."

A shadow appears and, with a single gulp, it devours the world, disappearing into the dark. There is nothing left but the lights who move around, confused.

"The veil was lifted, and the shadows consumed the world. We were left with no land and followers, and left into a long slumber."

"Wait... but the Gates are sealed... How is it possible that the World was engulfed yet we are here?" Karina asks.

"And that... is what none of my siblings, sons or daughters know." The light show disappears and Demisaus appears once more. She has her hands together in front of her legs. "We have been trying to figure out what happened to our world, how is it that this world came back."

"Do you know who opened the Gates?"

"That is what we want you to figure out." Demisaus answers with a nod. "Or at least, help us do it. Because of the Veil being back in place before we arrived again, our power is limited."

"Then... was it you who summoned me? Why am I here?"

"The truth, dear Amber, is that we had no power over your summoning. We noticed you one day and have been trying to contact you."

Then I will leave with questions on why and how I ended up becoming Amber and why I cannot remember my life before this other than playing the game and interacting with the community, especially the developer.

"The priest said something about a wish, and scriptures that shut up the rules of the world."

"And what rules do you think enter there?"

"I don't know... the system?"

There was a slight smirk on her face, like I arrived at a point and the way there was made easier from making that single statement.

"The System did not exist before this happened. When we arrived here, it was the first time we saw something like that. No levels, no stats, no specific spells. Therefore... this is not our original world."

"What?" Karina couldn't believe it. "W-what do you mean?! Amber knows so much about this world and you three are here, right?"

"But what I know is from the game..." I explain.

"Then, my dear Amber... I wish to give you a simple quest: Figure out what is the reason behind this discrepancy and the nature of this world."

Huh? What kind of request was that? I am not sure why, but it was like a shadow passed by her face, maybe it was my imagination. Why would she want me to figure out the nature of this world?

"Shouldn't you know that?" Karina asks. "Y-you are the ones that created this world, didn't you?"

Demisaus shakes her head. "You are mistaken, child. If we did, we wouldn't be asking this from a mortal."

"And what can a mortal accomplish that a Deity cannot?" I ask.

"Hopefully, you will arrive at that answer. Now, my gift for you."

[Demisaus has blessed you!

You gained the Feat: Touched by the new tomorrow.

>>Each morning, you get a Black rose in your inventory that dies when the day ends. Wearing it gives you 30% more Ice damage]

"Ah! That is generous." They keep throwing me into an Ice Build.

Not that I mind that much... appearing looking like a fox and summoning a cloud of cold... that is going to leave impressions.

"Now, farewell... and take care of the people that follow you. You will need them." She says.

"Wait, I still need to-!"

But she disappears.

I find myself again with my eyes closed, sitting on the altar where Demisaus made her appearance. The statue was intact, like nothing happened to it, like it never broke in front of me.

[Feats:

Silent Casting:

>>You can cast Mystic Level spells or lower without voicing their incantations. Godly level spells are still affected by the silence effect.

Touched by the new tomorrow:

Great... they really are throwing me into the Ice build with this one. Although the game was pretty similar, the way the game generated content usually meant that you would either be using what you received or you went out hunting for hours to get the perfect build. I usually let the game give me tools and I made my choice.

The people that were around me were gone, and the temple still has a group of injured and sick people from today's invasion.

"I am... what just happened?" Karina asks, dumbfounded from the encounter.

"I was hoping for more answers, but it seems she is not intending to tell us everything.

Either they are trying to hide information intentionally, have a hidden agenda... or there is something deeper related to my coming to this world.

[Your next step: Cemillas. Prepare, grow, overcome]

The system appeared for one last time before going silent again.
