Chapter 1: Plot-armor boy and Paradox girl.

In a small room with a wooden floor and a simple single bed in front of three chairs, there are five individuals conversing with each other, in a rather calm manner. The atmosphere is fine with no real tension to be seen.

"And that's basically my plan, you could say it's somewhat ambitious, and even though I agree, I still believe it's within the realm of reasonable.", A man with long pink hair said while looking at the other three individuals in the room through his abominable mask. He had a good posture as well as a noteworthy aura, which for some reason didn't call out to one's attention or make him stand out at all; His attire consisted of a ragged cloak that covered all his body.

"That's what you said yourself, a rather ambitious project, but I believe it will be interesting, so I'll help you." An old man with a beige suit and hat said. A simple smile could be found on his face.

"I don't know about that, it sounds like it will destabilize everything we've been doing our best to maintain up to this day. What do you say, young woman? Young man?" Another old man this one wearing a plain white shirt and blank pants declared with concern, then turned to the last two people in the room with a question.

"It's hard to say without seeing it ourselves, we better than anyone should know how unpredictable 'characters' can get, if you ask me, I think this would be a great chance to see how these 'verses' would interact with one another." A young woman with a small framed body, who's wearing a high school uniform expressed her opinion with a serious expression that carried a hint of excitement.

"I have no qualms with this idea, it seems very interesting, though chaotic, but none of us would be here without chaos, it feeds our verses one way or the other." A young man with an average build exposed duo to him wearing a bikini armor that has all its parts look different and even a sombrero on his head, those who didn't know would wonder if he's a clown. His speech was concise and almost domineering despite being calm in tone.

All the four of them had their own view in regards to what the pink-haired man had proposed to them but in the end, it seems to have resulted in 3 votes in favor and 1 against it.

"TOAA, it seems you're the minority this time around. I understand your worries, but you must remember that these are only copies of the real ones, and even the body you're controlling right now isn't the real one, you know that." The pink-haired man added after hearing everyone's response, he didn't seem disappointed, anxious, or hurried; he just carried a plain smile that held no meaning.

"I know all of that, but in the end, they are still our precious 'characters', we shouldn't treat them lightly or it might destabilize all of our 'verses.'" TOAA replied with a stern expression.

"You're taking this far too seriously old man. It's just a bunch of copies that can't compare to the real deal if I had to put it in other words, I would say.... How do the 'chaos readers' call those fake replicas again?" The young woman immediately followed up in a relaxed tone and an expression to match that up, she didn't seem to be taking the situation with any semblance of seriousness at all.

"I'll be staying out of this now, I have already stated my opinion. I have too many mobs waiting for me." The young man lifted his hands before backing away while shaking his head, he clearly no longer wanted to partake in the discussion.

"You two should take it easy on each other. As for what the 'chaos readers' say, I'm pretty sure they call them AU, which stands for Alternative Universe." The old man in a beige suit followed up seeing the disagreement between TOAA and the young woman.

"That's it! Thanks, old man PRESENCE. Like I was saying before, these replicas are just AUs, so there's no reason to be attached to them." The young woman finished confidently her earlier point once she got her answer.

"Calling me an old man when you're not that young yourself miss GOA, that's quite rude of you, hahahaha." the PRESENCE seemed to have been slightly dissatisfied being called old and throw it right back at GOA.

"And here I thought you're a gentleman, but you went on to talk about my age. Is that any different from declaring war?" GOA took it to the next level and even let her spiritual pressure fill the room as the whole place began distorting and reality was breaking down.

The PRESENCE, equally let their energy manifest and was unaffected by the otherworldly pressure of GOA.

*Cough!*

The pink-haired young man coughed once to call their attention and immediately the spacial distortion halted as things went back to normal.

"You two are too inconsequential and I'm left dubious if whether we should follow AUTHOR's plan when you agreed. Don't forget, we are in his verse right now, not ours." TOAA semi-scolded the other two while reinforcing its point of concern.

"Yes, apologies. It's been a while since I've met such an energetic youth, and as for my decision, I stand the same this project interests me to some degree." the PRESENCE soon recomposed himself and gave a final answer.

"Tisk! Fine, I guess I'm also at fault here, so I apologize. Now, in regards to my vote, I stand with a yes, this is going to be a fun 'story' to 'watch' progress." GOA also backed down and confirmed her answer.

With that said, everyone looked at TOAA.

"*sigh* I hope this doesn't go wrong. I'll agree to it as I myself am intrigued by this project of yours, but you must be careful to not lose everything, the 'Chaos readers' are not easy to please." TOAA gave in and agreed to partake in the AUTHOR's project.

"Well, that solved itself. It seems we all agree to be a part of this." The young man once again confirmed his vote.

*Clap!*

"Great! With that, I can initiate the OHP project. Even though these are all replicas I created, I'm still thankful you've allowed me to tweak with your verses. It's a pity these replica bodies I made to communicate with you won't remember this once things go down. Well, it was nice nothing the less, let things begin." The AUTHOR clapped his hands with a smile of excitement before saying the last words to the other four as the world they were talking in began to collapse.

"I truly hope we don't regret this." TOAA said one last time before disappearing.

"It's unusual of you to be so pessimistic, I guess some things are already different. Well, let us 'watch' a new 'story' unravel." The PRESENCE also gave his parting words.

"GM out. I hope I can say GG at the end of this one. Otherwise, things might get tricky for you mister AUTHOR." The young man, apparently called GM said as he disappeared setting a warning before being gone.

"Finally, I can go back to my place, AUTHOR, don't mess this up, I'm actually somewhat looking forward to it." GOA was the last of the four to disappear with a dangerous smile on her face.

"I hope Hendrick puts up an interesting show for us, otherwise I'll never hear the end of those four's nagging.... Don't even make me talk about the 'Chaos readers', they'll eat me alive if this isn't at least a bit fruitful." Those were the words the Author said before disappearing just like the others.

____________________________________________

-1st person P.O.V-

Holy five-layered burger! Am I in the void?

Damn! So, I really did die? That's messed up... It's still my fault though.

My name is Hendrick Saveryon and I'm a 16-year-old young man who was your everyday student, and if I had to say I was really good at anything while alive, that would be massaging as it was something I trained since I was 11, it started because of my perverted nature... *cough* *cough* I mean cultured fantasies and I trained almost every day, in the beginning, it was just shoulder massages but as I became really good at it, I was permitted to explore more of the body and even though I had to massage men too, it was a necessary sacrifice. Eventually, I grew out of my horny state and actually began enjoying giving massages to people, it was also this skill that got me my first few girlfriends, unfortunately, I never got to graduate from my virgin status since at first, I was a closet degenera- I mean man of culture and then when I was more confident and was about to go down with my girl, she got cancer and died a few months later.

In the end, I was emotionally unstable for a while as I truly cared for her, and we were the type of cute couple that some people think only exists in movies and series. Once I was starting to get over it and was about to move on with my romantic life, I discovered something that took away my motivation and made me feel like my existence was meaningless. I was just a cannon fodder character in some random dropped story... After that, I stopped caring and slowly descended into depression, and worse when I tried to tell anyone they called me a lunatic, and even I was wondering if I wasn't just insane, but then weird things started happening around me more often, I could read the script of what people would say before they did and even their thoughts, then time started working weird, I would be in the classroom having a lesson close my eyes and open them walking back to my house with memories of a day I didn't live.

It was driving me nuts, so, I tried to show my ability to read the script and the thoughts of the characters, but I couldn't as the world would censor me when I tried to. One day, I even touched the 4th wall, it felt weird and I just woke up in the hospital after being in a coma for three months because of it. At some point, I tried to ignore it and just live normally but it was impossible. The worst part and how I discovered the story was dropped, was that at some point, it would just stop and restart from the very beginning with everything happening the same way no matter what I did! After countless tries to change things I eventually gave up and committed suicide by jumping from a 12th-floor head-on.

This lead to where I am now. I didn't think escaping that hell would be as easy as killing myself, besides I was afraid of dying so it took me a lot to make the decision. It seems to have been the right decision tho, don't get me wrong, I don't support suicide, but nobody deserves to live a hellish loop life that doesn't even let you change anything!

The only thing that helped me keep a bit of my sanity was massaging, it was my escape from everything as I focused solely on relaxing tense muscles with the use of hand coordination and pressure points, I did use a few other things like oils, hot stones, and even needles, it seems whoever the author of that story was, really liked massaging or had some sort of fetish about it. Well, in actuality there were a few other things I liked aside from massaging, namely Anime, manga, novels, cultured anime(hentai), cultured manga, cultured novels, and some other related things. So basically, I was something of a weeb myself but because of the fact my world was a dropped novel, I could never get to the end of most things I appreciated and could only eternally wonder, does Luffy ever even get close to getting close to finding the one piece? I'll never know.

Anyway, the more I thought about the situation the more it felt weird, I didn't even know if I was acting the way I was acting, because that was who I was, or I was 'written' that way. I basically lost my sense of self for a long while there, before conforming myself with what my reality was.

Even now, I don't know if I'm still in some random story or if I'm just dead... But I bet, I'm still in some random story, I can almost feel it.

Regardless of whether I'm still a character or not, as long as I'm not some random cannon fodder stuck in a time loop, I'm fine with it... Actually, I wouldn't want to die again, so maybe having plotarmor would be a requirement.

At least I wish that was the situation right now. I know that I'm dead and I'll probably spend the rest of my time in the void, even so, I guess there's nothing wrong with dreaming a bit.

Finally confirming myself with my current situation, I just drift away in the void and reflect on myself as I don't have much else to do.

-Later-

Time went by without me having the slightest idea of just how much, I just floated aimlessly in the void with no destination.

And then.

A voice with an ethereal feeling to it made itself known as my mind could perceive the words it was conveying. "Mortal, welcome to my domain. I am Paradox The Oxymoron, the beginning of the end, the failure that failed to fail, a compulsive liar stating only the truth, and the representation of Illogic that is chaos standing in nihility and originating from Infinity." The voice didn't seem to care for my mental state as it began to introduce itself in a rather nonsensical way.

"My pleasure miss Oxymoron, I'm Hendrick Saveryon. Might you be kind enough to elaborate on the current situation? As I believe myself to be dead." I say as fancy as I know, not because I want to be, I just tend to do so subconsciously, especially when I'm nervous.

The voice then replies to me, which was something I did not expect. "You were forced yet chose to be here. You have a chance to succeed, to fail, or to fail successfully. It's simple, you have one wish and one wish only, with it you can change everything, be ordinary or be a failure. So tell me, Hendrick Saveryon, what do you wish for?" The voice was sweet and soft, as she throw a bomb at me.

"Not to be rude miss Oxymoron, but this doesn't answer my prior inquiry. Personally, I would prefer to not repeat myself, but It would leave me in a rather perilous situation for you to not respond. So, I'll say it once more, 'Might you be kind enough to elaborate on the current situation? As I believe myself to be dead'" I couldn't simply answer her question without knowing what is going on. It feels like this might lead to something big.

"Pardon me. You are as you suspect dead but were chosen to lead the OHP project. I can not give you any details, even so, you must know that this is your only way out of the void, in case you refuse, you'll simply keep floating in emptiness for eternity. As compensation for your troubles, you were bestowed upon the chance to wish for whatever is it that you want within the reasonable, but be warned that it is one wish only." After my insistence, some of the answers that I needed, were given to me.

If it's as she says, I've basically been toyed with by some higher beings, and they seem to still want something from me, with that in mind, there are chances I truly still am in a 'story' and if that is the case, I might know exactly what to ask for.

"Having thought of it for a bit, I wish for the AUTHOR's blessing, after all, if this is a 'story' there has to be an AUTHOR." Unlike most people who would have played it safe by asking for something like infinite power, true immortality, arc of embodiment magic, erebean magic, comic power, and so on, I decided to gamble on what the AUTHOR should mean in a 'story'. Even if my gamble doesn't bore fruits I would still be fine with it, this whole experience made me somewhat of a nihilist, so I'm not really worried about the outcome.

Silence fills the area as I calmly wait for the response to my wish.

"... You... Yeah, that's not going to be possible even if-" Paradox was silent for quite a bit before starting to tell me my wish won't work, but suddenly she stopped.

(Damn it! That's disappointing... ) I was starting to think before something rather unexpected happened.

[Dear Hendrick,

I was really bored and decided to start a new project, you ended up being a big part of it, normally what you asked for would be impossible, but I want to see if it's still possible to keep the stability even after doing something like that. In other words, I'll give you my blessing, but even with it, you'll have to put in the work. Anyway, that means you still get your wish, a pretty good deal, right? Good luck.

Sincerely,

The AUTHOR]

Look at the floating screen that just popped up right in front of me, I was as silent as Paradox... I must say, even though I don't like this AUTHOR guy, since it's because of him that I'm in such a crazy situation in the first place, I must say this is pretty decent.

"So, miss Oxymoron, I still have my wish correct?" I confirm with Paradox if I truly can still make my wish.

"YOU! You can't just break the 'story' like that?! What is the AUTHOR thinking just giving something like that out?!.... You're a damned abnormally! Do you have any idea how hard I've worked to get here?! I-.... Sorry, I didn't mean to rant. Please make your wish." Paradox snapped and went on a mini-rant and I was a little surprised by the change in attitude from the beginning, but it doesn't really matter if I can still get my wish.

"Nice, then my wish is to have a customized system with limitless potential that only listens to me." Since I only have one wish, I decide that this is the best way to get more broken things down the way, and if it isn't then it's still fine.

"Your wish has been granted." Paradox said with a tired voice that made me feel a little guilty since I know that feeling.

[Synchronization and Linking with Host's soul complete! Welcome to the F.O. System. Please state how you would like to be addressed, host.] A mechanical voice spoke to me as a new floating screen popped up.

F.O.? Does that stand for what I think it stands?! Wow didn't think Paradox was that petty, but then again I don't know her.

"You can call me Master, Boss, My Lord, or other titles as such. Also, I'm be calling you Mitzvah, Mitz for short." I was looking forward to seeing what the Mitz can do.

[Name registered. I must thank Master for bestowing me a Name.] The system was still monotone as it answered.

"Good, now Mitz, what can you do?" I ask.

[As of now, I have the current functions:

Looking through my status, I could see that everything seemed fine, even though I was a little surprised by the titles... The system even knows I about harem dream... This is definitely a system made for me.

(This would open a whole new world for me. Hahahaha! A man of culture must take the chance if the universe offers it to them.) I was very pleased with the results and couldn't really complain.

"Mitz, explain my status to me." Even though I did know a lot of the things present on the status screen, many others were confusing to me, so getting a full run-through of it would definitely be for the best.

Inventory: Already explained.]

"That is a LOT of information... For one, I don't get how protagonist is a subclass, and two, I'll need to be careful with what classes I take..." I said to myself as I continued to look through the information.

"Now, is there really a need to be 4 different ranking parameters? that just sounds excessive..." As I saw Rank, threat level, and the rest, I couldn't help but point out how pointless that seems.

"I don't think I will be letting my Lifeforce, my energy, or my stamina get to 0, especially my lifeforce. But then again, would my plot-armor act up if that happened? Well, I hope I never have to find out." It was just a matter of time before I was eventually put in a situation that question and I knew, I just thought saying something positive would be nicer.

"Do I really need that many attributes? Though they somehow all have a function. I guess." At that point, I decided that as long as it works it doesn't matter.

"This is weird... My abilities do about what I imagined, but it says that my 'reading' ability isn't a part of the blessing, which wouldn't have made sense if I had it before, but it still begs the question, where did it come from?" It was a bit of a surprise and legitimately made me curious about the origin of this ability of mine.

*Ahem*

Paradox cleared her throat to call my attention before saying. "You have gotten what you wanted, now please leave.", She sounded very tired and even depressed to a certain degree.

"Before that, would you like a massage as thank you? It's partially thanks to you I got this lucky, after all." I said to try and anime her or at least cheer her up a bit, having been depressed for a while it's almost painful to see someone else go through it, even if at a small scale.

"You can't meet me, I am unable to leave this place as the representative of Oxymoron. Unless you can break reality, I can't accept your offer." Paradox responded albeit sad, her voice carried some pride and honor, as she seems to be proud of her position in her job.

"I'm sure there has to be away. <Read>" I used my ability to read and see if I can find anything that could help me.

[Please select your target] A floating screen appeared in response to me activating my ability.

"Paradox" I responded immediately.

[What information do you want about the target?

Exp: Location, Thoughts, Death, backstory, Role, etc.]

"Location." Once again my answer was simple.

As soon as I said so, I could see the void in a completely different manner from before as instead of darkness it all became white. The biggest and most obvious change is that in front of me now stood a desk with a woman sitting in one of those roller chairs.

The woman had half black and half white hair with one of her eyes being as blue as the sea while the other was reminiscent of a pure gold coin with its golden yellow, on her forehead horns could be seen, one white and the other black. Her eyes brows are in the same condition and as soft as looking as high-quality silk, while her small reddish lips and strong firm nose only made her figure more mesmerizing with her long eyelashes attracting attention to her beautiful eyes. Her face is such a visage that I almost didn't notice her cat-like ears on top of her head, which like the rest of her hair one side is white and the other black. Though the surprises didn't end there as she was packing some impressive badonkers that should be at least cup G and were accentuated by the top she was wearing. Unfortunately, I couldn't see the rest of her clothing due to the desk.

I soon snapped out of my trance and moved towards her, before stopping and saying. "You look different from what I imagined but nonetheless breathtaking. So, are you still up for the massage?"

Paradox looked at me up and down before rubbing her eyes, then looked at a can of what seemed to be some alcoholic beverage, before commenting. "I have to stop drinking at work... It's bad for me and the company, but I can't help it when my mood sours, and now I'm seeing things... Great, this day couldn't get any better."

"You know I'm real, right?" I asked watching her act.

"I heavily wish you weren't, it wasn't enough for you to break the state of the 'Story', now you're also breaking our 'domain' and all its 'laws'... Unbelievable... I still don't get what hit the AUTHOR for him to do something so reckless! Does he no longer care about the stability of the 'Fey Omniverse'?... Why am I the one that always gets involved in the weirdest cases? What did I do to deserve this?" Paradox went on another rant and began rambling about her work while rubbing her temples before looking me in the eyes, without saying anything.

"You still haven't answered my question." I bring it up seeing as her attention is once again on me.

"You know what? Do it! Give me a massage! Do whatever the hell you want! It's not like I'm the Owner of this company or anything or that I build this from the ground to have a mortal bypass everything by changing his 'perspective' with a broken ability! Arrrgghhhh!" Paradox continues her rant after answering getting to the point of putting her head down on her desk before letting out a muffled scream.

"Wow, just, wow. You seem to truly have a lot of pent-up frustration, let me help you with that." I moved until I was behind Paradox and began giving her a back massage with my extremely dexterous hands and slowly but surely alleviating the tension in all the muscles on her back.

At first, she was very tense, but it soon become a memory as she was laying her head on the desk with her eyes closed enjoying my massage without complaining.

"Ok, I'll admit... You're not half bad, but this is still absurd... You don't understand what any of what you did means... This might be the end for us..." Paradox began speaking almost to herself but it was obviously directed at me.

"The end of what?" I ask as I continue to massage her.

"My career... Go a bit higher... Well, I might as well enjoy my last moments here." Paradox said and even asked me to massage higher before continuing to speak.

"Why is that?" Like a barber doing his job, I just indulge myself in talking to Paradox.

"Because I failed to uphold the rules I set... and it had to be at a moment like this when those bastards got so many actions of my company and even the support of directory board... They'll definitely kick me out, they hate me. So, just do me a favor and massage my worries away." Paradox explained with a sour expression and an angry tone.

"I will do my best... But what rules did you break? Is it related to me being here? If so how can you be so calm towards me?" I gathered my thoughts and posed the questions I had in mind.

"Yes, you being here is strictly forbidden, and even though you got here yourself, I was the one who agreed to it although I never thought you would actually manage... In the end, it's the AUTHOR's fault for having disregarded everything we worked for just like that." Paradox continued to respond and seemed much calmer than before as she enjoyed her massage with a small and barely noticeable smile.

"Regardless, I must express my apologies, also, what do you plan to do from now? Go back to your family? Or something?" I threw another question at Paradox.

"No, I don't have anyone to go back to, I had dedicated my life to this company, I even build it from the ground after my parents left this world. As for what to do now? I don't know, maybe I'll try again or maybe I'll just live a simple from now on, who knows." Paradox voiced her almost none hope that things will work out.

"I'm sorry for your loss, but aren't you an all-powerful R.O.B. Or something among those lines?" I asked since it didn't seem like this was much of a problem to her from that perspective.

"I guess from your perspective I am, but just like any mortal, my eternity loses purpose when I don't have anything to strive to, I can't try to become stronger as those above me are unreasonable monsters I can't compare to, neither do I really feel like starting my business from zero. As for moving to something else, no thanks, it feels like a waste, after all, I put into this, it's been more than 5 billion years, and this is how it ends." Paradox seemed to lack the motivation to do anything which was understandable if she really just lost 5 billion years of hard work.

"If that's the case, what about coming with me on my adventure through the, how did you call it? 'Fey Omniverse'... Maybe you'll enjoy it and I'll give you free massages and some homemade cooking if you come." I made an offer half-joking after seeing that she seemed to need something new in her life to cool down for a while before moving on to something new.

"..... You know what? I'll take it! F*ck the AUTHOR! I'll make a new story with you Hendrick... And I'll make sure his dear 'stability' goes to hell! That inconsiderate bastard!" Paradox to my surprise actually took my offer, before complaining about the AUTHOR some more, she seems to know him one or the other.

"... I didn't expect you to actually take my offer, but if that's really what you want, then how do we leave this place?" In hopes of moving on from here quickly, I say as she might just change her mind if we stay here for too long.

"Wait, we must form a soul contract before we move on. Under the conditions that you will offer me a massage and homemade food when I want, and lastly that you will when you are strong enough help me recover my company and even go beyond what I've ever achieved. After all, who better to help me than the guy that is literally loved by the 'Fey Omniverse'." Paradox once again surprised me as she added conditions to our deal, making it clear she didn't give up on her company just yet.

"I'll take it, but in exchange, you'll not only come with me on my adventure, but you'll also work with me as my companion and play by my rules. What do you say?" Of course, I added my conditions to the mix since it still will be beneficial to have her there either way.

"It seems we reached an agreement." Paradox says as she reaches her hand to me.

I shake it and astral chains come from our hands to bind us, which is a very uncomfortable feeling but not painful. They surrounded my body and my heart and connected them to Paradox's, but I noticed something weird while this process was going on, she seems to have two hearts.

[Notice. You have sealed a soul contract with individual 'Leyline Paradox Oxymoron' the Ex. Owner, the Founder, and CEO of Oxymoron Omiversal corps. You are now bound in a soul partnership under the conditions stated. Break the contract will result in the worst outcome for any of the parties involved, so please refrain from doing so at all costs.]

"So your name is Leyline?" I commented upon seeing it.

Leyline simply nodded without making any comments.

"Now, how do we leave?" I once again pose the question.

"You better work hard if you don't want things to turn bad for you. As for how we leave, I suggest taking us to your domain." Paradox said.

"I see. Mitz takes us to my domain." I order immediately.

[Yes, master]

-In the pocket dimension apartment-

In a big living room with three sofas, I and Leyline appeared on one of them in what looks to be a T3 apartment with two bedrooms, one restroom, a living room, and a rather small but well-equipped kitchen.

"*Sigh* I feel dead inside." Leyline said as she let herself relax on the sofa with a small frown while letting out a sigh. I could now see that she was wearing shorts and running shoes, which definitely wasn't the kind of clothes you should wear to work, but then again, those are earth standards.

"How relaxed, it's good to see you're feeling comfortable." I remark.

"Hn, I guess. I'm hungry, be a sweetheart and make us some food." Leyline immediately started using her contract benefits.

I got up and walked to the fridge to see if there is anything inside and not surprisingly the fridge was empty, then I checked the counters to be met with the same result.

"Huh... I would love to show you some of my amazing cooking, but there's nothing I can use here." I explain after confirming it's all empty.

"Ok, no problem, just give me Authority in your Domain so that I can use my Powers to get us stuff." While speaking, Leyline changed her position from sitting to laying on the sofa on her stomach, giving me the chance to see her fine ass in its full glory, and although not nearly as big as her breasts it was perfectly round.

"Mitz, Give Leyline Co-Administrator authority." I agree as I see no problem with it.

[Notice. Individual 'Leyline Paradox Oxymoron' has been given Co-Administrator authority in unnamed Domain.] Mitz reported to me immediately after my order.

"Oh, and change the Domain's name to Saveryon realm." I added.

[Notice. This Domain is now known as 'Saveryon realm']

"Hendrick, please make the food, I'm hungry." Leyline voiced her thoughts once more.

The counters and fridge were already full with all kinds of ingredients and food before I knew it.

"Oh yeah, I'll get to that, but aren't you immortal or something? Do you really need to eat? I mean, you literally just created all these from thin air." I asked as I was curious about her actions.

"Being nigh-Omnipotent is boring, and so is reality wrapping! It brings no satisfaction after you do it for the millionth time. Besides, I'm a young lady, being spoiled like this by having our dear 'protagonist' cook for me makes me feel good, OK!" Leyline gave me an answer that wasn't what I was expecting but made sense to me, after all, in the end having someone cook a good homemade meal for you is always the best way to eat and does for the most enjoyable meals.

"Aye! Captain." Satisfied with her answer I decide to be extra caring when preparing this dish.

After thinking for a bit, I decide to make Goulash.

Once I'm done the scent is filling the room, an aroma that would make any stew and meat enjoyer's mouth watery and hungry for a bite of this delightful dish.

I serve a bow for Leyline and one for myself before taking it to the table in the living room and announcing it. "Lunch is ready! Come and eat!"

Not long after Leyline came new wearing a very long shirt with no bra. She sat on the other side of the four-seat table and then she grabbed a spoon and did something I wasn't expecting, with her spoon now full of meat and sauce with a bit of potato and noodles, she smelled it before making a pleased expression and taking her first bite.

I had heard of people that smell their food before eating it but witnessing it like this was weird, to say the least, about it. Though I decided not to say anything and just ate my fill.

After a bit, Leyline was the one to break the silence.

"Hendrick, I have to admit, I never thought you would be this good. This tastes amazing, although not as good as many of the things that I've eaten in my life, it is still exceptional for a mortal." Leyline complimented my cooking her own way.

"Thanks, I'm happy you like it. It's been a while since I made this, so I was wondering if I didn't put too much paprika or too few noodles." I was genuinely happy, as those who cook know how great it feels to be complimented on it.

"Hm.. Sshoo, whvat worrld arri wve goving to? (So, What world are we going to?)" Leyline asked with a full mouth, so much for being a Goddess... Though I could still understand her.

"I don't know, the worlds are randomized since I thought it would be more fun that way. But I haven't activated it yet... Mitz, active the world travel's selection function, and once we're ready, I'll give the order to transport us to whatever world we get." I explain before taking in another bite of the Goulash, which is just amazing, I'm proud I could still nail it.

[Report. Activating world selection randomizer... MHA world has been selected. Once you are ready, you will be transferred there with new identities and a Quirk each to match the world. Due to the rules of the 'Fey Omniverse' Individual 'Leyline Paradox Oxymoron' will be stripped of all her powers as well as her status as the 'Paradox' concept and have her readjusted to match the world.] Mitz reported.

"Are you fine with this?" I asked her.

"Yeah, I already knew this to happen. it's not a big deal anyway, the most dying in one of these worlds can do to me is make so that I can't get back into that world for a few centuries or so. There is no real danger even without my powers and status. Also, since this is being done to me, in compensation, I'll have talent equivalent to what I'm losing In all these worlds, so I'll still end up being an absolute monster in the end." Leyline explained and even though I still think that system is a bit unfair, it does seem like adequate compensation.

"Cool, just tell me when you are ready to go." I say.

"Yeah, about that, can we stay here for a few more days. I just want to relax for a while before jumping into anything." Leyline asked with tired eyes.

"No problem, you've been working for a very long time. Let's just take a 2-month break here and then move on, it would also give me time to train a bit just in case." I agree with her.
