A long, long time ago, there was such a legend.
In a certain place, there were ten worlds. These ten worlds revolved around each other and felt like a galaxy … living there.
Although these worlds did not look special, it seemed that all the ancient creatures knew about them.
The ancient creatures … were like the Star Bus.
They had lived in the void for a long time and knew many things. Sometimes, they would share the stories they had experienced with other creatures. These stories would occasionally be passed on by various creatures.
There was a story, the story of these ten worlds.
They were like ordinary galaxies.
They were not noticed and were not understood. Although many creatures knew about this place, they did not pay attention to it.
Until a certain time, there was a change in these ten worlds. One of the worlds suddenly disappeared …
And, in a short period of time, the same thing happened again … Another world suddenly disappeared.
Therefore, this place was really noticed at this time.
In the following time, these worlds disappeared one by one. The third, the fourth, the fifth … They seemed to have been destroyed, but also seemed to have disappeared into thin air.
However, in this story, there was no specific description of what happened. It only described that when these worlds disappeared, the world at the center of them lit up.
It lit up with a radiance as bright as a star, illuminating the surrounding void.
But, this world was not a star. It was about the same size as the world around it. Originally, this place did not have any stars.
Under its light, the last world slowly disappeared, leaving only this world that was emitting light.
It … did not disappear. Instead, in the following time, it slowly darkened and became the same as before.
Then, as if nothing had happened, it floated there alone, but there were some fragments around it. They were left behind by the worlds that had disappeared.
Only these fragments accompanied it.
It was said that the original narrator of this story had once landed on this lonely world. When he traveled and observed it, he did not find anything. There were no creatures there, just like the countless rocky worlds in the void, it was a barren land.
But there was a … feeling of fear.
Later, he left this place and did not continue to stay there to observe … but his story continued.
This lonely world slowly moved away from its original position.
Perhaps it was attracted by the gravitational force of the distant stars, or some other reason. It deviated from its original trajectory and began to move in a direction it had never gone before.
After that, the world reached a certain place and encountered … a group of living creatures.
These creatures came from the void and did not have a fixed residence. They were originally drifting in the void.
And after seeing this world. The group of creatures seemed to have suddenly taken an interest in it. He decided to live in that world.
The narrator of the story watched all of this happen.
These creatures landed on this special world and started living there. Although this world was cold and barren, these creatures did not seem to care.
The narrator did not know if the creatures would feel fear, but it felt that they probably would not, or they would have left instead of staying there.
After the creatures landed, they began to modify the world. Their modification speed was quite fast. The surface of this world changed greatly in a short period of time.
But how long was this short period of time?
There was no way to know. After all, there was no accurate description. At the very least, the person who first described it felt that it was very short.
The surface no longer looked barren. Instead, it was filled with … wonderful colors.
These colors covered the earth and slowly covered the entire world. At this time, the world suddenly began to light up with that kind of light again.
It was like the light that disappeared from other worlds before.
Such a strong light seemed to mean that this world had a huge amount of energy, but it did not cause any harm to those creatures.
These creatures still lived in this world and continued to modify the environment above. As the light became dimmer and dimmer, the narrator saw that the world was becoming more and more different.
On the surface of this world, there was a layer of … liquid.
Or rather, it could be called water. Of course, it was not sure if it was really called water. Anyway, it was just called water for now.
At first, there was only a very 'thin' layer. The light of the world shone out from under the water. The surroundings were still quite bright, and many protruding 'lands' could be seen in the water. But slowly, the water seemed to increase more and more, and the light of this world became dimmer and dimmer. Finally, it disappeared completely.
At this time, no land could be seen on the surface of the world. It had completely become a water ball. And, after it became a water ball, it stopped moving and stayed in this position without moving or turning.
At this time, the narrator felt a little troubled.
Because, before, it could see the changes on the surface of the world and speculate how those creatures modified this world. But now, it could not know what was happening under the water ball.
Unable to know didn't just mean that it could not be seen. It meant that it could not be sensed by any means.
Therefore, the narrator of this story decided to land on this world again to see what was happening there.
However, just as it approached this world, it suffered a fierce attack. This attack caused it to suffer heavy losses, and it was difficult for it to escape. This made it unable to approach this world again.
However, it was still very interested in this world, so it did not go too far away. Instead, it maintained a certain distance to observe this world.
Time … flowed slowly just like that.
In the long period of observation, the narrator was able to obtain relatively little information. Occasionally, it would see the world shining again, but it seemed that because of the water, the light was much dimmer than before.
Other than that, there were no other changes. The creatures in this world did not leave this world, and this world continued to stay in the same position without moving, as if it was not affected by any gravitational force.
The narrator knew that this world was not alive, and it was not a creature like the Star Bus.
But there must be some secret on it, which was why it glowed and attracted those creatures to come, live, and modify it.
Although nothing happened in this world, there would occasionally be some external situations. For example, some creatures would pass by or approach this world, and without exception, they would all be attacked violently.
Very few creatures could survive such an attack. From what it observed, there was only one creature that managed to escape from such an attack, but it also seemed to have suffered a lot of damage.
Other creatures would only be annihilated.
Seeing these creatures being destroyed one after another, the narrator would send a signal to those creatures to not get close to the water ball. But because there were not many creatures that understood the signal, many creatures were still destroyed one after another.
Just like that, a long time passed …
Until the narrator thought that nothing special was going to happen, something special happened.
It found that in this water ball, many … things flew out.
These things flew out of the water ball and into the void. Then, the narrator decided to catch one of the things that flew out to see what it was.
It waited for this thing to fly to a certain distance. It thought that it was outside the attack range of the water ball, so it went to catch it.
Then … it died.
Because it thought that the attack range was wrong, it was still attacked in that position. This time, it did not succeed … in escaping.
After an unknown amount of time, another creature discovered the first person who had described it.
It found all the records about the water ball recorded by the Descriptor, so it became interested in the water ball and decided to become the second Descriptor, continuing to observe the situation here.
The things that were shot out of the water ball were recorded before the first narrator died. These things seemed to be very similar to the creatures that lived in the water ball.
Maybe they were the ones that shot out the next generation, the second narrator thought. Then, it continued to observe.
Yes … it was just observing.
Unlike the first narrator, the second narrator did not seem to like to do anything. It was just purely observing.
It did not catch the things that were shot out, and when it saw other creatures approaching the water ball, it did not use signals to tell them to leave.
It also did not have the intention to go to the water ball to take a look. It kept a safe distance and observed until a certain time, it decided to leave.
After a period of time, the water ball stopped shooting things out and returned to its initial calm state.
But it did not last long. Suddenly, the second narrator felt a … signal.
It seemed to be sent by the creatures in the water ball, and it contained some of their … thoughts.
In the signal, the creatures in the water ball said that they had found a place … that was very far away.
So, they planned to 'summon' something from that distant place, mainly because that thing could help them spread their 'will'.
Then, they started to move.
Although the second narrator felt that it was very strange, it did not leave. Instead, it stayed in the same place until the creatures in the water ball started to move. It felt a …
Feeling?
This feeling made it extremely afraid. The second narrator felt that it should not continue to stay here, so it left.
