Reborn as God: The strongest system

"Who said that? Show yourself!" Esdras looked around and made sure with the spy eye but he still didn't find anyone around.

"What's wrong?" Celine asked concernedly.

"Didn't you hear that? Just now someone… " Esdras rubbed his eyes, even though his eyes had nothing to do with hearing.

"She can't hear me, dumbass. I'm here, look inside. For fucks sake, I can't believe I have to deal with this level of walking heap of waste."

Esdras looked around once again and narrowed his eyes. It was then that he remembered something, without further ado he started meditating and looked at his sea of consciousness in his spirit body.

There, he saw a black lump of coal? Well, it looked like one with red flames for eyes. It was what remained of that rank 4 being after the divine shard was done with it. It looked slightly different from the last time he saw it.

"Oooh, you figured it out faster than I thought you would, not bad, not bad."

That thing talked noting but shit so far.

Esdras didn't find a way to exorcise it yet but at this moment that moved up in his priority list.

"What are you thinking about? Let me guess, you're trying to think of a way to get rid of me or purge me out of you? Well, good. That means we're on the same page! I want to get out as well!"

Esdras has had enough, "okay then why waste time talking? Get the hell out of here already. You don't want to stay and I don't want you to stay, isn't that great? So, get going, I won't be seeing you out."

Naturally while he was still cautious of the rank 4 being, it was abundantly clear this thing was not what it used to be. It was a shell of it's former self and it continued to disrespect him so why should he be polite?

"Hehe you have a long tongue, brat. Do you think I want to stay here? But the truth is I can't get out any time soon. Either way, now is not the time for that, naturally I will get out in time. For now there's something much more important that you have to do for me."

"I have to? I don't think I have to do anything for you." Esdras snorted, he wasn't sure what this thing was even getting at. However, it seemed like getting out was, interestingly not it's priority.

What could overtake such a matter?

"It's not just for me, it's for you too. If you want to live that is." The creature's flaming eyes expanded.

"So, what is it? What is this urgent thing that needs to be done to save my life?" Esdras rolled his eyes. He heard this plot several times, it's a cliché.

"You have to get out of this world. And quickly too, before it's too late." The creature warned with a grave tone.

​ "Leave this world?" Esdras asked back, this was not the request he expected to hear, "what do you mean before it's too late? And how am I supposed to leave this world anyway?"

Actually, he was planning to leave this world too. But only after getting the second divine shard hidden in this world. After all, the rest of the shards were hidden in different worlds and he had to get them.

However, he never actually thought about how he was going to do it yet. After all, it was going to happen some time later in the future, he could think of a way later.

Besides, the one time he traveled between different worlds it was using the shard already in his possession and he had no hand in it.

So, he thought that the next shard will probably take him to the next world. After all, Planeswalkers were not called Planeswalker for no reason.

"I'm telling you this, but listen carefully, soon, this world will experience an event known as Convergence. This means that several higher level worlds will collide and fuse with this one. As you can imagine this is not a seamless process, it's a catastrophic affair."

Esdras silently listened without interrupting the monster, it sounded serious and at all joking like before. He could even detect a hint of fear in it.

"The powerful beings in those worlds will try to claim this world for their own, you can't even dream of putting up a fight against them. So, the obvious thing to do is to run away. It's also impossible for you, but fortunately, you have me, and I happen to know of a few methods."

"Sounds scary, but how do I trust you? Why should I believe anything you say? How do you even know all this? To me it looked like you were happy to come here." Esdras wasn't green behind the ears, he wouldn't just take the word of this highly suspicious being.

"How do I know? In my prime I was much more powerful than you can understand. One of my abilities that remained somewhat intact was to read fate."

"You're not a rank 4?" Esdras asked just to make sure.

"Rank 4?" The monster snorted in disdain, "that was only what I managed to recover after thousands of years of being on the verge of death. Rank 4? That's a joke!"

"So, you saw the fate of this world?" Esdras asked, he was very interested in this. As for the bragging of this fossil, he would come back to it later.

"No, I didn't. This is why I know it's bad, the fate of this world was already disturbed and twisted I couldn't read it, it's too convoluted now, anyone trying to peer into it will pay a heavy price. But I experienced something like this before."

"How was it?" Esdras curiously asked.

"How? Awesome! I devoured so much Origin I could puke. Damn, it was one hell of an opportunity. At that time I was one of the great beings attacking that poor world. Hehehe. I'm telling you there's no way those guys will let this slip by their fingers."

'Origin…? As in Origin points? Is it the same thing?' Honestly, Esdras didn't know what to think about this right now. Everything was starting to get confusing and clearer at the same time.
