3rd POV
[Queen Of The Multiverse]
'...what?'
[Omniversal Royalty]
'Eh...?'
[Second Strongest In The Multiverse]
'EHHH?!... W-w-wait... WAIT!!!'
[Processing]
After announcing that, the system went silent for some time, giving the people time to comprehend just what they even heard.
'... have I started hearing things? I don't think so... but...' Yeonha thought to herself, she was sure that she hadn't developed any disease of hearing things like that, which meant what she just heard now, was indeed true...
She turned her head slightly and observed Chae Nayun and the rest from the corner of the eyes. And the only details she saw were the open mouths and stretched eyes of the group.
'... I guess it's hard to believe for them as well...'
'but this does indirectly prove several theories, the most important of which is the mulitple-universe theory... if Rachel is considered something like "Omniversal Royalty", than it means that this "Omniverse" must exist as well.'
'After all, from what we have deduced before, the System never lies. It doesn't even have a reason to...'
{Hajin Nam UI Nebula}
'Hmm, seems like it has started again... well, there isn't much to even reveal anymore... I feel like I won't even be surprised if it announces that Hajin is a deity...'

'Mm, these are the more "normal" ones probably... I feel like the system has a liking for shocknig the shit out of us...'
[First Holder Of System]
[User Of Nihility : Creation/Destruction]
'first holder huh... and "Nihlity' again... this confirms it, he has nearly the same type of power that Rachel has. It also doesn't seem to be a coincidence that these two black hourses of Cube revealed themselves during the same day and exam...'
[Genesis Class Weapon User]
'So they have at least two of these "genesis" grade weapons huh... well, it was normal for this to happen because princess Rachel had one too...'
[King Of the Multiverse]
[Strongest In The Multiverse]
[Omniversal Royalty]
'I jinxed it... again...
'But seriously, this is getting out of hand... I can already imagine the raid of reporters waiting just at the door... well, that is, if he will let them... I don't think the barrier will let them in, but in case they storm outside, there's also a chance that that person may not like it... I hope this won't turn into a slaughter, I don't want to see those papers again...'
[Processing...]
'Huh? Isn't it over? Even from here, I can clearly see that there are only four people on the second floor except the CEO... unless.... there's someone among the crowd?!' Yeonha looked around with sharp eyes, trying to detect anyone that may seem a bit odd.'
"Hey, what's that?!"
"Hah, is the world ending?!?!"
"Just what the heck is that?!"
Hearing gossips from behind, Yeonha turned back my face and looked upward towards the second floor.
'...'
A single person sized portal had formed in the air, similar to the one that the Royalties had come through in the beginning of this auction.
Suddenly, something came out of the blue starry portal, however, no one was able to see who or what it was as there was a great deal of light covering it, making it impossible to look towards it directly.
{Evandel Nam UI Nebula}
Eventually, the light dimmed out and revealed what appeared to be a child, of around 4 to 5 years old. Bright blonde hair and shinning blue eyes, she was extremely beautiful, but still to the extent that she could be called a "cute child".
In other words, a Loli...
'Ah~ I almost forgot about her... is it time for her to make a reveal? But well... I guess it makes sense. Since that person decided to reveal himself completely, it won't be surprising if she does as well.'
'After all, from the little time I spent with her, I could tell that she far exeeds anyone in Cube with just potential alone...'
The child flew towards Rachel and Hajin and hugged them, before arrangin herself on their laps.
Since Hajin and Rachel were sitting very close, she could easily sit on both of thier laps at the same time.
Looking towards the floor below, she gazed around to see everyone's faces. Meanwhile, the 1st floor crowd could now finally see her face clearly.

' ' ' ... ' ' '
Utter silence dominated the building. Except the low voices of the the Royalty and the child just appeared, chatting, there was no sound.
No, rather, no one "dared" to speak in that pressure except them.
'Uh...' Yeonha was utterly and divinely shocked, '...hello to paperwork? I don't think this is going to end easily...'
'That loli was this strong?! How does that seem logical?! Ho~ly! I know that Hajin and Rachel are strong, but this is... SO COOL~!!!' Nayun thought in her head.
She had similar reactions to the previous introduction of the Royalty, but her reactions were less emotionless and cold, rather, they were more leaning towards those of a normal person, not an "ice cold princess".
'That child... I don't think I can do anything to that child even if I use all of my powers... this is really~ terrifying...' Chae Joochul though.
Never in the right state of mind had he thought that he would say this in context to a child, one that was younger than even probably 5 at that...
'This... Yeonha was right... we really need to get on his good side, I can't see myself succeeding in anything in the future if I don't have a good relationship with them...' Jinwoong thought to himself.
As someone who was intelligent and akin to a fox, he could already feel his instincts telling him to get into as good of a relationship with the current England Royalty.
'Hohoho~ I wonder if I can get their approval on training that child... I really want to see how much of a monster that little kid will turn out to be in just a few years!' Shin Myungchul's heroic instincts were already screaming.
He as a hero always liked teaching others. Even if he had retired and now was just enjoying life, he still wouldn't mind teaching a kid that had such amazing talent.
'But well.... I guess they already have someone better than me for that... actually multiple... still, I look forward to witnessing that kid's full potential...'
Meanwhile, our "original" protagonist, Kim Suho, had a completely different line of thoughts, no, rather, he wasn't surprised as much as the others as he himself had already experienced something similar.
'I guess you're still the same... it's truly has been a while since I last heard of the name "Supreme Being"... Haha, I wonder if we could meet again, old friend...'
Eh? Did Suho know about the Supreme Being all along? Had they already met? Maybe in their previous world?? What is the author plotting now?! Well, we wouldn't know.... The only way to find out is to follow the story and continue reading! Hopefully, we'll get an explanation this lazy author soon... *Thud* Hey! What was that for?!
[A/N : You're talking too much, POV-chan~]
Hmphf! I'm only speaking the truth, you lazy son of a--
[A/N : I dare you finish that and I promise you won't have your sweet rest for the week]
... *whistle* what are you talking about, I didn't say anything *Turning face to the side* *Whistling*
[A/N : Anyways, *Cough* enough breaking the fourth wall, gonna have to use a lot of flex tape on that one. Continuing the story~ I'mma have to replace POV-chan with her step-sis for a while... POV-chan will be... occupied in my imaginary bed...]
3rd POV's step-sis' POV
*On the Second Floor*
"Daddy! Mommy! How was my cool enterance?!?!" Evandel urged her parents with stars shinning in her eyes. It was clear as day that she was excited. Actually, she was alreayd excited about this whole scheme since a few days ago when Hajin told her about this plan of his.
"You did excellent, Ev~" Hajin responded.
"Yes~ Now you can come with us to anywhere, you won't have to hide anymore, not even a bit." Rachel added as she grabbed Evandel from Hajin's lap and put her on her own lap.
"Hehehe~ Yaaay!" Evandel exclaimed excitedly.
"*Ahem* Hajin..." Arthur faked a cough to get his attention, "Though I'm happy for you and Evandel, you're making the atmosphere awkward by being this loud" He said and looked at Rachel, "You too, daughter."
Even though Arthur was a loving father and grandfather, he was still a King, and they are still Royalty. They had to remain composed and look extremely noble, or society would drag them down from behind while attacking them with arrows and swords of jealousy and hatred.
"Let it be, Old man~" Hajin rolled his eyes, "If someone feels awkward and wants me to stop, they can dare to stand up. Of course, that is, IF you believe that you can survive a tier 7 spell and come out unscathed~" Hajin said that aloud.
It was clear that if someone had a problem with him, they were free to let it out. If they're lucky, nothing will happen. But if they go too far with arresting dominance of their "opinion", they won't come out unharmed from it.
"..." Rachel kep quite.
Although she didn't want a fight to start unnecessarily, she did agree with Hajin on some points, specifically the ones where he meant that he wouldn't let others bring him down, not without resistance at least.
Meanwhile, a certain blone haired mother was very happy seeing the current Rachel.
'Hmm~ She really changed, and in a good way at that... Hajin really earned myfull approval on that, he won't let her go deeper into useless thoughts and let herslef fall because of society~' Elizabeth thought.
'I'm glad she realized that mistake sooner than I and Arthur did when we were younger...' She said with a happy smile, but a little sadness still lingered, although, it was really~ really tiny.
'I'm happy for you, my daughter~ But I'm still a little sad that we didn't realize it as early as you did at your age...'
*Ahem* Arthur averted his face and coughed again, this time towards Zelen, telling him to finally continue from where he left.
"Ah, Yes~" Zelen replied as he walked forward to let the audience get a better view or himself.
However, although he appeared to be composed, he was, just like several others, in complete chaos in his inner world.
'Shit! SHIT! I didn't thought something like this would happen!' He really wanted to bite his own tongue for his previous actions, "I didn't realize that man was such an important individual! He may even be-- No, he IS the most important individual in this whole building. I have to get on his good side soon! I just hope he didn't take my earlier behaviour seriously, although, I can't depend on possibilities this time around!'
*Ahem*
He got the audience's attention before saying, "Well, why don't we get out of this awkward audience. We shouldn't forget the main purpose for this action, which was about the method on how to utilize the white crystal, right?"
"Ah, yes. Please contiune, Zelen-ssi." Someone from the crowd said.
No one knew the source of the voice, but everyone started saying similar statements, couraging him to continue his speech.
"Very well. But before we begin, let's first discuss about the history of this crystal~" He said while hovering his hand over the crystal.
"Although this is called "The White Crystal", calling it "Mana Crystal" or "Mana stone" wouldn't be wrong either. It is certain that this crystal contains mana, an enormous amount of mana. Our team has been trying to discover its information since years, however, even up to this day, we have only discovered a handful of details."
"First of all, its mana properties. We discovered that it contains the purest form of mana. Actually, the mana in it is so pure that it theoretically exceeds to density of even the early Aypocalypse, at which time mana was theorized to be in the most dense state. Its raw density rivals and most likely surpasses even that of the great dungeouns that the legendary heroes have defeated! And that's not all! We have also discovered that the amount of mana it has is INFINITE!! It's so great that it can be utilized by a whole country at once!"
"Now, as for the history, we have discovered in some agent tombs and aging devices that the Crystal itself is billions of years old." He stopped mid sentence to see the reaction of the audience. Satisfied, he contiuned onwards, "Furthermore, we discovered that the same stone, or at least one with similar shape and properties, was used in the ancient times as well. Specifically in the Egyptian Rule."
"This suggested two possibilities, either they had accessto hidden technology that even we haven't discovered, or that they knew of the method on how to utilize it. However, he theorized that it was the latter, and that the reason we didn't know of the method to be because it was forgotten in the past. And a major possible reason for that might be a system interferance. As you have just experienced, the system holds the power to interfere in any event taking place in this world at any given time, thus solidifying our theory."
"However! After several years of hard work and continuous experimentations, we have finally concluded the past and correct method of using the White Crystal!" Zelen announched, sounding enthusiastic about all this.
*Clap*
*Clap*
Cheers and applaudes filled the area for a few seconds, but soon died down as Zelen started talking again.
"Now, as for the method, .... *Random Bullshit cuz I don't know what to write here*..."
*
**
***
*A few hours : Night time *
"Thus, we hope for you to buy our newly invented tools, which are the easiest way to use the infintie mana inside the white crystal!" Zelen concluded the presentation with that.
*Cheers and Claps for a few seconds*
The people started to talk with each other, discussing various things, but mostly business related stuff like forming relationships between companies and alike.
" I guess it's time." Hajin thought as he looked towards Rachel and the others, who also noded. Evandel was confused yet excited of the whole mysterious talk, but kept quite and observed her father with her usual interest towards mysteries.
"Ugh! Why can't we leave?! Hasn't the auction already ended?! Zelen, What's the meaning of blocking the door?!?!" Someone shouted from the crowd.
"Indeed! What's the meaning of this?!"
It seemed that a few "people" wanted to leave, but couldn't as a complete barrier was formed in the internal structure, similar to the one that covered the whole of Clancey Islet Island.
"Huh? What do you mean?"
"What? Why is there a barrier on the door?"
"Why is the door not opening? Is there something left?"
Just like that, various questions resounded from the crowd.
*clap*
*clap*
Silent claps were heard from somewhere, the whole crowd shifted their gazes toward the direction of the sound and saw a teenage boy with black hair and silver eyes walking towards them on the second floor, smiling.
"Well well, it seems that the "rats" are in too much of a hurry to leave after thinking that they ate enough of the cheese~" Hajin said with a smile on his face, one that reached his silver eyes, which started glitching into golden.
"What?"
"Hey! Even if you're the princess's lover, you won't get away with this so easily! open the door this in--- HIIIII?!?!" The man shrieked as a dominating aura covered the entire building, no, the entire Island, again. This one was for opressing then even the one that was released by the System!
"Ah~ I sincerey apologize. It seems that even great minds like you have failed to deduce the situation you're in, even after the hint the System gave..."
"Hehehe~ HAHAHAHAHA!" The black haired boy started laughing creepily, utterly out of character for his style.
Some people also noticed his eyes forming a hue of Golden, which soon covered the whole of the eyes. His pupils started sharpening a little as his golden eyes glowed. The aura he was releasing kept getting more and more oppressing.
Of course, he made sure that the innocent people were safe from this aura, including the Cube's cadets and his "friends".
[System Notice!]
The system's voice announced again as individual square shaped windows started appearing in front of all of the people's eyes.
["My Hello to everyone who can see or hear this"]
"Sup, Dogs and bitches..."
After the pause of a few seconds, the System's, and even "Hajin's" voice resounded again at the same time, perfectly alligning, the contents shocking the whole crowd except a few.
