Infinite Darkness.
That's how one can describe this place.
No matter how far one would look, they won't find its end.
It remained like this for quite some time until numerous glints of light appeared one by one. These lights were souls of the deceased.
With time one by one those souls entered reincarnation cycles to start their new lives.
Some fortunate ones got chosen by the fate and reincarnated in a new World with their memories of precious one still intact.
Some who could be described as the child of destiny or future protagonists got chosen by a system and transmigrated into a new World with their memories intact.
And last but not the least, those with a great luck, fate, karma or so on were chosen by some Gods who pitied them and gave them their blessings and stronger systems before they also reincarnated in world of their Choosing.
By the way, those Gods were Dimensional Gods not the Real Gods(3rd-Level Existence) since real God didn't care about the lives of mortals. Whether they live or die, it's none of their concern.
Even in Danmachi World. In case there was a mortal which God like, then they returned to the Heaven's and keep that mortal's soul with them. They neither brought them back to life nor sent them in the cycle of reincarnation. Just with themselves.
Anyway, just like that, all the souls left. All except one.
Compared to other souls, only a wisp of this soul remained. And this soul was a lot dimmer than any other souls that arrived before.
The Luck, fate, karma, and destiny of that soul was non-existence. Clearly indicating that that soul could dissipate at any second.
That was also the main reason why it didn't go through any of the three processes. Neither did it enter the cycle of reincarnation, not chosen by any system and nor attracted the attention of any of God.
Time went by. But that soul was still there.
Even more time went by as a new batch of souls appeared and went through one of those three processes. That soul was not chosen again like before. And hence, one by one all the others' souls started their new lives and journey in their old or new world while that soul remained in its spot.
Thousands of years. Ten Thousands of years. Hundred Thousands of Years. Millions of Years. Ten Millions of Years. Hundred Millions of Years. Went by.
Countless souls were reincarnated and transmigrated. But that soul didn't move. The same as before. There was no change in it after all those years, it was the same weak wisp which could disappear at any moment.
YET, it remained standing in its place.
That was Primis' soul.
Before he was completely erased by the Being's attack, in the last instant, he used the combination of Reality Marble and Marble Phantasm to hide the last bit of his soul and escaped thanks to the small rift that appeared in the space thanks to the destruction of the White Hall.
Next, without a single hesitation Primis initiated his advancement to Eight-Dimensional God since he already reached Seventh-Dimensional-God in his "Planar Lord" Template. Why? Because he knew that the Being would confirm whether he really perished or not.
And just like he expected, the Being checked every space-time and laws in that tunnel to confirm his death.
As for Primis, he really died considering he became Eight-Dimensional God and his consciousness scattered into nothing.
Yes, you heard it right. Even though it was Primis' soul, it had no intelligence, emotions, desires or so forth. It was just an empty husk.
.

Eight-Dimensional God.
Just what is Eight-Dimensional God?
It is true that the Universe barely tolerate the Sixth-Dimensional God and if someone try to reach Seventh-Dimensional God, Universe will make its move and eradicate that person into nothing.
Nevertheless, there is still a path for Seventh-Dimensional God even though it is blocked.
What about Eight-Dimensional God? Why is it said that no intelligence being to reach this?
That's because once you enter that Stage, your consciousness would dissipate, and you'll end up becoming an embody of a certain concept.
Yes. You won't get the power to control a concept. But YOU will become a concept itself.
This step is important since next is the rank of Ninth-Dimensional God who have the strength of the Universe itself. Eight-Dimensional God help you understand how a Universe work. How laws work. How Fate works. How time works. How Parallel World works. Why are they important for the Universe.
That's why Eight-Dimensional God can't be reached by an intelligence being. Because that person becomes an "Idea".
In simpler words, you become a machine who is made to perform only 'one' task. All other things are irrelevant.
In case you are weapon spirit, you will just become a weapon thorough and thorough whose only purpose is to kill in the hands of its wielder.
You will just become a person who has lost his/her mind and turned vegetable.
It may sound cruel but without going through this, its impossible to reach Ninth-Dimensional God without any external help.
As a result, the chance of reaching the next rank is close to NULL.
Why? Cause as a concept, you don't have any emotions, memories, desire, goal, Will, and so on to reach Universe Level. The single task or the Idea you have become is now your only reason of being. From then on till forever.
That's what Eight-Dimensional God is.

That's also what saved Primis in the last second.
Due to him turning into a concept, he got swept along with other laws that were in that space-time tunnel. And while the Being was looking for him, it only thought of Primis as one of the many concepts.
Now, the reason why Primis appeared here.
On the account of being a soul, he was also pulled at this place which was the gathering place of other souls.
Anyway, back to the present.
Even more time passed. The cycle of reincarnation kept on going.
And Finally...…
CRACK!!
SHATTER!!
The space around Pimis shattered and his soul was pulled in a vortex.
It then swallowed Primis and repaired itself in the next second.
This Dark world became empty again.
It was again waiting for the next batch of souls to guide them on their next journey.

Primis opened his eyes and saw the sky.
Clouds scattered around the blue sky and were moving slowly.
He found himself lying in a patch of grass. The air felt so fresh, and he even heard the chirping of birds around. Turning his head to the side, he saw many trees going as far as eyes went. Clearly indicating that he was in a forest.
As this time, one of the clouds stopped covering the sun and the sunlight fell directly on Primis' face.
Bringing his hand in front, Primis shielded his eyes and decided to get up.
But then…
Primis: …kuh!
A groaned escaped his mouth as every part of his body screamed in pain.
Primis: To think that even the whole resurrection and reconstruction of my body can't heal me completely.
He then looked at himself and saw that he was in his "Planar Lord" clothes. Loosing his tie, he opened some buttons of his shirt and looked at his body to confirm whether he was healed.
Primis: It seems that only my outside is restored. My insides are still thoroughly destroyed. *SIGH* That Being really did numbers of me this time...........Twight.
[......…]
Narrowing his eyes at this, he called again.
Primis: Twilight.
[......…]
Frowning Primis gave a few more commands but the result remained the same.
[......…]
[......…]
[......…]
[......…]
[......…]
Primis: Hmmm...
Putting his hand on his chin, Primis thought of something and closed his eyes to look inside himself.
.
.
.
.
Inside he saw that a huge sphere of Origin Force was encasing all his pocket universes together.
Witnessing this, Primis couldn't help but sigh.
Primis: You really come to help where I need it the most, Twilight.
With Primis death, his pocket universes should have been destroyed too. Even if not then they would still have taken serious damage. Means those residing inside would have died.
However, this sphere protected them from any sort of damage.
He can tell that this sphere was Twilight itself. And currently she was in deep slumber. Just like the others inside.
Sighing again, Primis returned to himself.
.
.
.
.
Opening his eyes, he dragged his broken body towards one of the trees and leaned on it.
Primis: No wonder Twilight didn't response and I couldn't access any of its features.
Shaking his head, Primis continued.
Primis: Not that I care since I only used Twilight shop feature. As for others, I can do it on my own.
Saying this, Primis hand entered into void, and he took out a vial.
Primis: The use of a system is almost non-existent to me. Since I can do things without its help. Like how I took out this vial from the inventory when the Twilight is in sleep......Though, I never thought a day will come so soon when I use "Star Elixir".
Said Primis while looking at the vial in his hand.
The vial contained a single drop of transparent liquid which seemed to have stars inside it.

<Star Elixir>
---
Description:
The highest form of Elixir which is made when High-concentrated Origin Force is Diluted hundred times. This Elixir can cure all wounds, remove all status ailments, regrow your limbs, recover all stamina and strength to max. But it can only be used once a day. If you took the second one, it won't have any effect.

He then drank it.
GLISTER!!
GLISTER!!
GLISTER!!
...
…
In the next second, a beautiful scene occurred in which Primis appeared to be surrounded by a sea of stars.
CRACK!!
CRACK!!
He could feel that his body was healing rapidly from both inside out.
A few seconds later, the stars disappeared.
Primis face was a lot better than before.
Primis: As expected from the Elixir made of the Origin Force. All my injuries have alleviated.
CRACKLE!!
Blue flames appeared before they burned the empty vial to nothing.
Witnessing his flames, Primis frowned because they were a lot weaker than before.
Primis: *sigh* Even though my physical injuries are healed, my soul is still thoroughly shattered by that Being. <Star Elixir> can't heal it since we only made it to heal physical injuries.
Putting that thought at the back of his for now, Primis first decided to find which world he is in.
With his hand in his jacket pockets, Primis walked deeper into the forest.
Surprisingly, he didn't find any people or monsters of any sort.
As he was leisurely walking through the forest, he reached a small stream by the time sun set.
CRACKLE!!
He made a bonfire and caught some fish. It's been a long time since he ate anything. Hence, he decided to give it a go.
As the fish were cooking near the fire and Primis was in deep thought, he then suddenly moved his head to the side.
In the next second, there was a movement in the bushes, and some walked out.
She was lovely blonde girl with golden eyes. She wore a flower as a hair accessory and a white fantastical dress.
Seeing her, Primis raised one of his brows.
'Primis: I think I know what World I am in now.'
At the same time…..
