In the beginning of chaos, everything was indistinct and unclear.
This is what the world looked like in its earliest days.
There were no concepts, no rules, no world.
Similarly, nothing exists.
As many similar myths describe, Chaos was born in this formless and intangible space.
From the moment it was born, the name 'Chaos' was deeply ingrained in its consciousness.
Even it itself doesn't know why it's called 'Chaos'.
But it is precisely because of this 'name' that
In its very first consciousness, the various missions that it should undertake as 'Chaos' naturally emerged.
It will awaken and guide the flow of time.
It aims to quell chaos and expand the boundaries of space.
It seeks to split itself, thus giving rise to the world.
Because these are precisely the missions that 'Chaos' should accomplish.
And the 'offspring' that split off from its body must also have their own names.
'Nyx', 'Erebus', 'Tartarus'.
Each of the three separated from 'Chaos' and acquired its own unique 'name'.
then,
The being known as 'Nyx' has become the night sky of the world.
The being known as 'Erebus' became the end of the abyss.
The being known as 'Tartarus' became Hell itself.
Similarly, these beings are unaware of why they bear such names and missions.
They don't even know the origin of their 'name'.
They simply have to fulfill their mission.
because--
Having a corresponding 'name' means that one must bear the responsibility that 'name' represents.
The special chat box flashed in front of Viktor again.
Before him stood the being that should have been called 'Chaos'.
After those words were spoken, his sculpted, withered body began to disintegrate.
The darkness exposed in the center of his chest spread rapidly, gradually engulfing the rest of his limbs into the deep chaos.
After being pulled by the black hole, only Chaos's exposed head, with its exposed red eyes, remained.
Its neck was broken and shattered, like withered rubble.
Then, the darkness quickly shrank back, forming a tiny sphere.
At the same time, a thick mass of gelatinous mucus was expelled from the darkness and enveloped the surrounding area.
The head plunged violently into the gelatinous mass, and as the clump of mucus trembled, the head and its red eyes were mercilessly crushed.
Amidst the dust and fragments, it transformed into a hazy, chaotic mist, filling the interior of the gelatinous body.
Then, just like at the beginning, the whole mass of gelatinous substance began to boil and churn.
It rapidly expanded its body, transforming back into the chaotic and bloated form it had at the beginning.
Because my name is 'Chaos,' I became Chaos.
Ironically, I didn't even know who Chaos was.
Although it was just a string of silent text, Viktor could clearly sense a powerful emotion within that chaos.
It is filled with helplessness, anger, pity, and even more complex and intertwined emotions.
At this moment, as the 'player', he might be able to understand everything 'Chaos' said.
The reason is that this is a game.
Whether it's games or movies, mythological elements are often incorporated to create a rich background.
How should these mythological backgrounds be set?
It's simple; we can just borrow from real-world myths.
Therefore, for Viktor, it doesn't matter whether it's Hades or the 'Chaos' in front of him.
Their names and abilities are borrowed from ancient mythology to fit their character settings in the game.
In the game, they will continue to fulfill their respective duties, just as described in mythology.
Just like Hades, who rules the underworld in real-world mythology.
The game also features a Netherworld, and similarly requires a God-King to serve as the boss character that players must fight against.
Thus, 'Hades' was born.
Therefore, Viktor could answer Chaos's confusion with such a simple explanation.
But Chaos has no idea that he is part of the game.
Ultimately, when it began to question its own existence and name, it fell into deep confusion.
It wasn't until I met you that I realized our existence might all be predetermined roles.
Could it be that in another, higher-level world, there also exists a god named 'Chaos'?
I merely borrowed its name.
And you are a human who came here from that world.
Therefore, you understand everything about our world, including the abilities of every being.
Upon hearing this, Viktor stood rooted to the spot.
But his gaze became even more serious, staring intently at the endless chaos beneath the sky.
Seemingly sensing Viktor's reaction, 'Chaos' perhaps believed its conjecture was close to the truth.
The chaotic mass then twisted its enormous and mysterious body, creating another extremely unique chat box in front of Victor.
Otherwise, how would you explain it?
[A human being limited by lifespan, yet knowing everything about the entire world?]
Viktor never worried that his origins would be guessed.
The key point is that no one will examine him from the perspective of 'another world'.
