"We've lost... All that work and sacrifice only for me to end like this... A lost soul wandering in the deep void of the Omniverse..." A sphere floating aimlessly in immense darkness that shows no signs of ever ending was basked in its own sense of failure, as the memories of the events that led to its demise and fall replayed multiple times in its mind further engraving that moment in its existence.
It had fought for glory and power... Not just any kind of power, unlike some who would be satisfied having gotten to where it once stood, it wanted more, it wanted absolute power, not for domination or even for the glory it also enjoyed, but instead it wanted absolute power so it could finally be truly free and safe, no longer at the mercy of the cruel and merciless Omniverse, where being under anyone would sooner or later lead to disaster.
Though it fought with all it could and even had companions who had similar views, even so, those relations meant little when the moment of truth came and it was betrayed, only to bearly escape as a soul duo to the sacrifice of those who were truly loyal... This gave it a new objective, a new drive... To avenge those who had fallen to the hands of the treacherous bastards who sold themselves to the enemy! And for the purpose together with its personal yearning for absolute power, it would need to once more raise in power, but not just to get back to where it once stood, no, that was not enough! It had to go beyond! As further up as possible! Alas, it was in no position to dream of becoming something so majestic... After all, it was in the deep void of the Omniverse, where corrosion would eventually erase its soul permanently, unfortunately, it was also the only place where it could safely hide from its enemies without ever being found and immediately killed by those who once called themselves its companions and subordinates.
"I, Venus Eros Ambrosio, swear upon my existence that if another chance were to ever be bestowed upon me! I'll enjoy that life before I tear apart those treacherous fools, and reclaim that which will be my throne above all!" Venus made his declaration as he remembered how much of his life had been focused on his objectives with few and rare occasions of any form of enjoyment aside from being closer to the throne he so avidly yearns for, now deciding that his existence should be more than a collection of sub-goals to achieve, to get closer to the main objective.
This was a decision that motivated him to survive at all costs in hopes of an opportunity since he was in the deep void, known as the most unpredictable area in the vast infinity of the Omniverse. It was said, that anything and everything had taken place in the deep void at least once, that was the kind of place it was and the reason it was heavily avoided, aside from the fact that all and any form of detection and teleportation were completely useless in it.
What Venus didn't expect was that he was the luckiest individual to ever step foot or better-said form in the deep void, as the deep void for the first time began to merge its energy with an individual, and it so happened to be him. This moment was one that anyone in the Omniverse would be too lucky if they got to experience 0.1% of it. As the endless stream of energy fused with Venus, it began to mold itself to help him achieve his desire as he slowly but surely became the owner of the deep void, now the personal domain of Venus Eros Ambrosio.
(AN: When that plot armor kicks in real good.)
The man who would one day be known as the Sovereign of Totality, Ven-Ograhoth! The successor of Yog-Sothoth.
[Welcome to the Totality Inheritance System, Master]
"Hahahaha! It seems the Omniverse hasn't given up on me just yet. So, what exactly are you?" Venus was excited to feel himself energized and his power no longer fading but unfortunately not rising either.
[You were chosen to be the heir of the domain of totality once in possession of Yog-Sothoth, so this The system was created for two purposes, one, to stop the power from consuming and destroying you before you are ready to fully inherit it, two, to nurture you to the point where you can inherit that same power, becoming the all-powerful Sovereign of Totality, possessing the true name, Ven-Ograhoth.]
"Great! That goes perfectly in line with my plan. But how am I going to get to the level I need to be in? No matter how much potential I have, the moment I leave the deep void, I will be swarmed by hordes of Divines at the level of concepts!" Venus asked as he was curious and worried about his progress now that he had a chance.
[The system has chosen a select few worlds outside the gasp of the Omniverse to nurture master through experience. You will be transferred to each of the worlds and while in those worlds be bound to their rules. As the one who will inherit totality, your mission will be to dominate those worlds while following their rules, after all, before you can break the rules you must first understand them, and what better way to do than to be forced to follow them?]
"I agree with that, sounds like a plan to me. Before I go though, I need to understand if you're going to go with me or if you're just going to observe my progress?" Venus questioned.
[I will be by your side for as long as you wish me to. I exist to make you into a proper heir for totality and to serve you in any way you wish me to as long as it doesn't conflict with the first purpose.]
"I see, then from this day on, I'll call you Lilith Ambrosio, as you will be my first companion and wife in my new journey." Venus declared.
[Downloading emotion system and related functionalities... Process complete]
[Y- Yes mast.... Overload... Cooling... Process complete... Yes, master.] Lilith who until now was simply giving responses carrying no emotion was flustered at her master's request.
"Let us get going, I want to see you, I've read before that contact and communication are the bases for a good relationship." Venus expressed his eagerness.
[Master... I don't have a physical body...] Lilith said.
"Well, we just need to get you one then. Is there any easy way to do it? I would rather not have to destroy anyone's soul so that you can enter the body. Personally, I would rather create a body from scratch with you." Venus commented.
[It is possible, as your system, I have other functions, namely: Status screen, Inventory, Harem, Store, Personal Domain, World travel, Quests, Lifestyle, and Lottery. So, it is possible to obtain a body through the store, though they are all costly and will require a lot of TP, or you could also collect various materials to use in crafting to create a body, and there's even the possibility of creating a body in the world you end up depending on which one it is, there might be multiple ways to do it.] Lilith explained.
"Then send me to one of those worlds, preferably one with multiple possibilities in that regard. Once, I'm there and all the possibilities are on the table, I'll decide how to proceed." Venus replied.
[Master... I'm sorry to inform you that I can't change the worlds or the order in which you visit them, as it might conflict with your training to inherit totality, but don't worry, whatever world you end up in, you will figure something out.] Lilith was a bit disheartened she could not help more, but she still had a job to fulfill above the rest.
"Understood, if it interferes with my training then forget it. Just send me to the world and we'll figure something out. So, don't worry, I'm not giving up on my wife just because of minor inconveniences." Venus announced.
[Yes, master. Initializing transportation process... Process complete.] Lilith began the transportation and instantly, Venus disappeared from the deep void and appeared in a forest.
The surroundings were green and full of life as various trees stood tall and danced to the wind, a song that was serene and low to the point it was almost inaudible but nonetheless was there. That all while the sun towered over the world brightly shining its light on all the life below, as the sky was too clear to stop it with no clouds present in kilometers(miles).
Amid this lush scenery was a young man with black hair that had a golden color at the tip and under, making for an interesting contrast that created a unique look despite his common hair color. His eyes were deep amber that could very well be orange if not for the almost reddish tone that had a crystalline glow to it. The rest of his facial features were sharp and small, nearly effeminate, but just defined enough to enhance his look without making him easily confused with a lady. While his upper body was just as enchanting being very well-toned with compressed muscles, from a six-pack to defined triceps it was all present. Finally, his lower body which had equally strong and well-defined legs to carry himself with pride, even having well taken care of toes, while in his crotch a sleeping Dragon resting on two mounds one could call its lungs which allowed it to shoot flames, as it just stood there 18cm(7 inches) in length and 4cm(1.6 inches) in width, proud to have come to existence and ready to cause havoc and destroy families.
This young man was lying naked on the grass until his closed eyes began to tremble as they slowly opened to be met by a whole new world. The result was him closing them again as the light of the sun was too strong, and he needed more time to adjust his eyes to it.
Venus opened them much slower than before as he gave his eyes time to adapt to the stream of light. Once he fully opined his eyes, Venus noticed the kind of scenario surrounding him as he looked around to gauge the area, and the conclusion was that there seemed to be no imminent danger around.
"Lilith, which world am I in?" Venus looked around again and again while he got up from the grass.
[You are in the Fairy tail world, year X780. You seem to be near a village on the outskirts of Magnolia.] Lilith calmly answered.
"Oh, ok... What kind of world is this one?" Venus who had finished looking around crossed his arms as he asked, Lilith, with a hint of curiosity in his voice.
[It's a world of mages where magic exists everywhere and just about anyone should be able to learn magic should they put their hearts into it. Though there are a few special types of magic, most magic can be learned through training.] Lilith clarified.
"That works for me. Is there any easy way to create a good body? Maybe I could use alchemy or some magic focused on creation..." Venus pondered the possibilities after he asked the question.
[Not necessarily easy, in terms of this world, the way to create a body would be to use Living magic. The problem is that you would need to either meet one of its few users to learn about it or get it from the book of Zeref itself. Though there is the possibility of getting it from the store, in which it is not cheap, or the lottery, which is simply unlikely. Oh, and I almost forgot the easiest way, which would be enchantment magic.] Lilith posed the possible ways to get her a body using means from this world.
"Humm... Before we get to that, can you show me the options present in the store?" Venus asked.
[Will do!] Lilith answered.

....] There was an enormous list that seemed to never end with various methods but of all of them, only one method seemed viable considering the current situation. That being Enchantment magic, as the rest was just too expensive right now.
"So, this leaves me with the option to either create the body with my own two hands by looking for suitable materials or use enchantment magic once I have it..." Venus was contemplating his current choices before making a final decision.
[Master... I would prefer it if you didn't go through unnecessary trouble just to get me a body.] Lilith voiced her worries.
"Relax, I just want to give my first wife the best I can right now, but it will definitely be more practical to start with enchantment magic and then from there move to something better once we are in a much better position. So, what do you say?" Venus responded before asking.
[I'm happy with whatever you choose...] Lilith replied.
"As much as I'm happy you care so much about my thoughts and decision. I would like it much more if you voiced your own at least a little more." Venus pointed out.
[Oh! If that's what master wants, then I do indeed think that I should get something much better treatment than this, I mean, I'm your wife! A little bit more effort in wanting to go for a more costly method would have been appreciated though as long as I get a body, it doesn't matter that much.] Lilith was sincere with her feelings.
"Oh... I'll be more considerate next time..." Venus was slightly surprised at the sudden change, but it was welcome.
[Don't worry, master. In the end, we are all still learning and will make mistakes.] Lilith in her way tried to comfort him, but she wasn't necessarily the best at it.
"Anyway, I need to know how to earn TP and if there's any clothing for me." Venus changed the subject as he felt there was nothing to say about that.
[That's quite simple, accomplishing anything major, completing quests, and defeating opponents are all ways to earn TP. Now, about the clothes... You'll either have to make them yourself, buy or steal some.] Lilith answered.
"So, I'll have to walk around naked... Oh, well you live and you learn, plus it could have always been worse." Venus told himself as a coping mechanism, but he didn't linger on that and moved on to a different matter. "The case being that I'll be living in this world for quite a long while, I would like to know more about my abilities as the heir of Totality."
[As the heir of totality your powers encapsulate every and all things, but as I mentioned previously, you can't handle that much power right now, so you will go through these worlds and conquer them to refine yourself to the point where you can. The process of doing so more explicitly will more so be you being given a new character status screen per world and mastering it, and even though you will lose the power you have gained in the past worlds once you move on, any of the abilities you mastered will be either readjusted to fit the world or exchanged for other types of bonuses. But worry not all the power you acquire in these worlds will be available to you in your domain and once you go back to the Omniverse.]
[The system used for it is that of levels, attributes, and skills. All things that you will gain as you grow stronger. If you want to see for yourself, I can show you your status screen.]
"Noted, this sounds like my kind of progression... and yes, do show me my status screen."

"I suppose this is an acceptable status... I'm not very familiar with the concept but is indeed interesting to be able to have this much control over my progress." Venus mused as he looked at his status with a smile.
"Lilith, you said that this world is full of mages, how do they work? Are mages accepted or are they feared?" venus questioned.
[In this world mages are accepted. They are regulated under an organization known as the magic council which keeps an eye on the mages. There are also three types of mages, independent mages such as yourself who belong to no faction, legal mages who belong to a guild or another legal organization, and dark mages, who belong to dark guilds or other illegal organizations. That aside there are two main types of magic: Caster Magic, which is magic that comes directly from the user's body, and Holder Magic, which is magic used through some form of an external source.] Lilith explained.
"I see, so as long as don't commit crimes or join a dark guild they shouldn't bother me too much. Then again I'm not the type to care. Having all that into consideration, I've decided that someday I'll make my guild, but for now, I'll build a name for myself in this world. To do that I should join a capable guild and become its strongest member and once it's enough, I'll leave and make my guild... I might even be on good terms with said guild and ally with them or not... If I consider everything, I'll eventually go on a world domination campaign, so, only dark guilds will be willing to work with me. That's already in a best-case scenario, me and my guild might very well be up against the whole world, so I'll have to choose the members wisely." Venus came to conclude after thinking about his plans.
[You just got here and you're already on it, that's the spirit! I can't wait to see you control the whole world as a Supreme Ruler!] Lilith was excited by the idea.
"In the end, I'll be more of a shadow ruler since I'll leave other individuals to control each country under me. I might even establish my own country." Venus smiled at the thought of being at the top of everything and everyone.
____________________________________________
Author's note:
For those who are fans of the Cthulhu Mythos or those familiar with it or just anyone wondering how Yog-Sothoth died in my verse/fic, it's actually pretty simple.
Nodens(Elder Gods) finally accepted that he's a cuck, so he decided to let his fantasies go wild. Eventually, he summoned Yog-Sothoth with a ritual to make him fuck Lilith(Nodens' sex partner and Yog-Sothoth's cousin. Not the one in my fic). That resulted in her death as she could not handle the energy overload(She's kind of a succubus, but not really.). Anyway, she died then Yog-Sothoth killed Nodens in vengeance, which in turn made Nodens' two other mates, Lythalia(kind of a friend with benefits more than anything to Nodens) and Nira(Actually his consort and probably a female), a fight in which he managed to kill both but not without taking some hits. This then ended with Yog-Sothoth just accepting his death to Nyarlathotep(Yog-Sothoth's uncle and Lilith's father), since he was aware of how it would end. He created the system, got killed, and his body remnants with the system ended up in my fic's universe.
I can already see a lot of people asking why. The answer is because I could. Also, yes. This is canonic in this fic. Plus, this is the reason the system girl is called Lilith, to let the cycle continue.
For those wondering right now, yes the system girl has remnants of Lilith, and yes the Mc has remnants of Yog-Sothoth. So they are partially cousins, like in 7th degree or something.
I like to imagine that if there was a tombstone for Yog-Sothoth in this fic it would say: Death by Alabama route.
And yes, I know how stupid this is. Hope you enjoyed!
