Guardian Of The End

"HAAAA!" Jason suddenly gasped as he looked around at his surroundings. The last thing  he remembered was getting hit by the goat's horns and everything had went black after that.

Jason then saw the window hanging in front of him which told that he had lost the battle. The fight made Jason realize that until and unless he had developed some strong moves, he wasn't going to fight the goat.

Jason hauled himself to his feet before choosing the last option from the screen. It expanded to show him the details of his dream world and what changes he had made to it.

Jason closed the window soon enough as he had no interest in making any changes for the time being.

"I have two systems now… my normal system is definitely going to be jealous when I reveal the existence of the one inside my dream world." Jason muttered.

"I exist in every vessel's dream world though. I also exist in the dream worlds of those who are blessed with divinities and I am the same everywhere so I am not a personal system. In fact, don't call me the system." The voice suddenly interrupted.

"Then what am I supposed to call you?" Jason inquired.

"You can call me the god of games." The voice replied in a human tone. "My name's Tet and I will appreciate it if you call me by either my title or my name."

Jason's jaw fell down when he heard the name Tet. As an anime lover, how could he not know about Tet.

"Also, don't think to much of my origin on Earth. I am sure that the copyright god would be on both of our throats if we continue the conversation this way." Tet interrupted as Jason's next words died in his throat.

"You are right, Tet. Anyways, can you tell me what exactly are you trying to do while acting as a system?" Jason couldn't help but ask.

"Well, I am in-charge of all the gaming or RPG style systems. The others are taken care by their creators. As for why am I doing this, its just how things are here in Clover. In fact, I am doing a lot of things in other worlds as well."

Hearing Tet's reply, Jason decided to not wonder what other things gods did in other worlds. The entire thing was too complicated for him to understand alone.

'After all, there are many worlds out there which contained even more worlds in the form of realms. Then there's a chance that one of those worlds have parallel worlds… Bah! I am not thinking about this.' Jason sighed.

He know understood why gods decided to live in the Bar of the gods and the place beyond it. It was too confusing for all of them to move through so many worlds.

Furthermore, there would be gods out there from other worlds and…

"Jason, let me simplify things for you. Imagine there was something called one that created everything inside it. The one became two and two became four until things kept multiplying.

Let's call these things as universes and inside them exists worlds. Our world, including everything from Earth to other worlds to the Bar of Gods etc. exists in one search universe." Tet explained as he knew that Jason would dig himself into a hole.

Such things were hard for a god to understand and even more difficult for a human to understand.

Fortunately, the one multiplying theory had come in effect than and it had explained everything in detail.

"Then can one travel between these… universes?" Jason asked with glowing eyes as Tet went silent.

"First of all, this isn't some science fiction novel so let's drop the topic. Second, the answer is no so drop the topic."

"As you say." Jason nodded as the game of gods sighed in relief.

"Then I will take my leave and turn on autopilot. If you want to talk to me, chant Tet three times." Tet informed but before he could leave, Jason stopped him.

"Can you tell me how time passes in here as compared to the outside world?"

"It passes…" Tet began saying before he realized that he had no idea how to describe the flow of time in words.

He didn't care about time as a god which was the reason he was stumped by Jason's question.

"You will find out how much time passed by when you leave this place. Don't bother me with questions now." Tet replied in an annoyed tone before he left for real.

'Good job, Jason. You managed to annoy a god by simply asking him stuff.' Jason sighed as he stretched his body.

Though he didn't know how much time would pass inside the dream world, it was a good place for him to practice in secret.

He could basically learn even the most dangerous of moves and use them without any worry.

"Let's try something new." Jason muttered as he remembered the white lightning he had been gifted by Hestia.

He decided to use it in the dream world to learn how to control it before using it in the real world.

Jason lifted both of his hands and tried summoning his white lightning. At first, only sparks of white lightning flickered around his arms.

But in the next few minutes, the white lightning suddenly rampaged around his arms. Jason realized that he wasn't able to control it but before he could dispel the lightning, his arms were torn off by the lightning.

"That felt as though someone had pinched my cheeks tightly." Jason muttered as his cut off arms vanished.

They were soon replaced by new arms as Jason flexed his shoulders a bit to see whether his newly grown arms felt the same or not.

'Good thing I used my white lightning in here and not in the real world. It would have hurt like hell and it might not have bee possible for me to get my arms back. That is unless grandma has some handy skill to do it.'

Jason raised his new arms once again and was ready to use his white lightning again. But before he could do that, he saw his body starting to fade out of the dream world.

'I guess I am waking up in the real world.' Jason thought as his body completely vanished from the dream world.
