Chapter 175 Glitch?

At the centre of every operation and development of the monster society was Core. While Deva was effectively the real boss, Core was the one who execute and supervise every activity of the society with the help of the Sins, Virtues and golems.

Deva was the equivalent of the boss doing almost nothing other than fooling around while the employees are the ones that are overworking and paid with the minimum wages, but the employees are not complaining and even enjoying the enviroment they were in, so what was the issue? None, that is in Deva's perspective.

With Deva's strange hobbies and fetishes, Core's workload became even heavier but no one thought that Core would just accept such nonsense from Deva without complaining and even occasionally playfully rebuke Deva with her expressionless face and voice when they rarely meet. Perhaps it was a treatement Core could only give to Deva since Deva was her owner but that wasn't the true reason, the people that interacted more around Core saw the gradual process of her change. If Core before treated everyone the same with Deva a bit better now Core treated Deva with the utmost care and dedication while not showing it to Deva, and Core might be the amongst the few creatures within 'Everything' that can perfectly hide her emotions from Deva and that is not because she had a skill to do so but because she learnt from Deva's memories on how to control and hide one's emotions. Ironically, Core learnt from the master of deceit and emotions to deceive the very master she learnt from.

Core has seen thousands if not millions of memories of different people but the one she kept seeing over and over was that of Deva. Not only Deva was taught by Demogorgon in her youth but she also experienced many scenarios that not even a hundred of people could experience in their lifetime.

Core processed the myriads of data from the millions of memories and learnt everything within those memories gaining every kind of knowledge from the knowledge of every subject that existed to the weaknesses of every living being or from the benefits of every material to the secrets of every living being.

The monster of monsters known as Core was not feared by Deva, who knew what Core would've become if left alone and instead a bout of excitement appeared the moment she fantasized of what Core would do with such endless potential, yet since Deva talked with Core heart to heart in the past Core had not changed that much...that is atleast what Core wanted to appear in front of Deva.

Deva treated Core merely as a close friend and a capable and trustworthy subordinate and Core wanted such image of her to remain as that.

One might even say that it was a waste for Core to serve Deva who really wasn't using her capabilities to the maximum...but Core was 'happy' and 'joyful' in her current state.

Since the day Core freed herself from the control and monitoring of the system and the Overseers she has been observing every single second and every single detail of Deva through her memories. It was difficult with someone as chaotic as Deva but Core managed to see a pattern on Deva's actions and thoughts. Yes, sentient creatures are indeed difficult to predict but with Core's capacities she was able to predict other's actions based on certain factors and with those informations Core is able to control one's future actions especially with the drones flying all over Intris monitoring everyone's action and every event.

In summary, the person who has the total control of Intris could be said to be Core since she has the capabilities to manipulate people, villages, kingdoms, the business market of Intris, the underworld and even rulers.

Was it a fortunate thing that such monster was not interested in conquering the world but instead devoted to a single person?

"She is indeed really difficult to understand. She met with the most ancient and powerful being to the creatures that could end universes with their skills, but she really never sought ultimate strength to reach the same strength or fight them and instead fought them by using the strength of others." Core murmured alone in her room.

What she has just seen was the memories of Deva from the first moment they met to the defeat of the ogre.

"Can we really say that she tried hard to end that succubus or ogre? The journey to defeat them was filled with her enjoying every second of it and even the most unpleasant moments were enjoyed to the fullest...this is really the ultimate form of a masochist..."

Core was right, Deva hadn't leveled up that much since she hit two-hundred levels yet her control on her aura became even more exquisite even though she occasionally use it, but Core knew that her aura has been always trained with every scenario Deva created to herself while enjoying those moments.

No sane person would willingly seek friends, close that gap to become the closest of companions and truly feel attached to them to ultimately finish them or torture them with the purpose of enjoyment and refining even more her aura.

"I'm afraid that Deva might meet her end while she is fooling around-"

"Core! That Saintess and Demon Queen are showing signs of breaking down!" The voice of Devi resounded outside the room.

"Core is on her way. Please wait Core for a second." Her way of speaking suddenly changed going from talking in first person to talking in third person like she usually do with everyone.

"Oh, Core! Goodmorning!" The face, voice, expressions and even how the body moved mimicked that of Deva but Core noticed some little flaws on how Devi mimicked Deva but Core only greeted back as she locked the door behind her.

"Core greets Devi and Core asks to please stop to try to peek what is inside my room as that is a violation of privacy."

"What?! That does not exist here!With you knowing everything about everyone."

"Core says nothing."

Devi was unable to see what was inside the room but there was really nothing to cry about since any secret Core has it is hidden in her head and no one other than her can peek inside, even Deva.

Core walked with Devi towards the control room where Core can give orders to the golems.

What Devi failed to notice was Core's distorted smile, her head slightly tilted to the left and the glowing lights she was releasing through her eyes as she was thinking about several plans dedicated solely for Deva, as to what kind or purposes no one knew other than her, but such changes rapidly returned to normal.

"Mmm?Strange..."
