"Or maybe it's just a coincidence that they look like each other? Perhaps a variant...? But no... that would mean this guy has lived for billions of years."

The Overseer's tour continued, and she was now explaining all of their encounters with the Order of Nothing throughout the years. How many people and planets the Order of Nothing has eliminated, and how the Order of Everything managed to fight against them.

Miss Pepondosovich and Riley, however, were no longer listening to her. They were following behind her, yes — but Riley was now just listening to Miss Pepondosovich's murmurs and whispers instead.

"Do you happen to know his name, Miss Pepondosovich?" Riley let his whispers float toward Miss Pepondosovich's ear; creating some sort of invisible tube between them so they could just talk casually without the others hearing them.

"If I remember it correctly..." Miss Pepondosovich closed her eyes; grabbing one of her ears and scratching it as she tried her best to remember, "... If I recall it correctly, the name that was on his statue on the land of the mortals was... One?"

"His name is One?" Riley tilted his head to the side, "Are you sure it is not Juan, Miss Pepondosovich?"

"Hm... No idea, it might be - but I'm pretty sure it's just One," Miss Pepondosovich shrugged, "But what I do know is he is the first Higher G.o.d, I remember that clearly now. Wait... or maybe he was the second? Okay, maybe I don't actually remember it clearly."

"The very first Higher G.o.d?" Riley blinked a couple of times, "Then would that not make him billions of years old, Miss Pepondosovich?"

"Absolutely" Miss Pepondosovich squinted her eyes while nodding several times, "Maybe he's even the first to ever be thrown to the Domain of the G.o.ds? Ack, maybe we should just stop speculating things."

"Hm..."

"His existence is probably closer to the Primordials than us," Miss Pepondosovich breathed out, "Well, I mean-his existence is probably closer to the Primordials than us; Us, you are not included in that, Riri, since you're... you know, you."

"I would like to believe I am closer to you and the others, Miss Pepondosovich," Riley shook his head.

"...You are," Miss Pepondosovich glanced at Riley for a few seconds before shrugging her shoulders, "Anyway, this is all just speculations - it might not actually even be him. Trillions of people, we're bound to find people who look like each other even when they're completely unrelated."

"We could always just ask, Miss Pepondosovich."

"What do you-"

"Is Darkday's real name 'One', Overseer?" Riley then cut off the Overseer as she was explaining some stuff about their history.

"What?" The Overseer blinked a couple of times as she quickly looked at Riley, "...Yes. How... did you know?"

"It was just an educated guess, Overseer," Riley shook his head as he gestured to the Overseer to continue the tour. The Overseer seemed to still want to ask Riley some questions, but she just nodded and went on with explaining their complete history.

"...Okay, maybe it really is him," Miss Pepondosovich's eyes widened as she looked at Riley, "So, let's just say that when the Domain of the G.o.ds was erased... One decided to leave his universe to check things out? Does that even make sense?"

"I would not know, Miss Pepondosovich."

"...But why do all of this?" Miss Pepondosovich's eyebrows started to knot as all sorts of thoughts raced in her mind, "Why go through all the trouble of doing all of this, when he could have just joined the war of the G.o.ds and ruled there? I'm sure the guy's pretty strong...

...why would he even bother joining an organization, changing it from within, and then acting as its leader? And most importantly...

...how did he find himself in the Unknown part of the Sole Remaining Universe, your universe, Riri? Out of all the universes, he is here in your universe... carrying a name that is deeply connected to you, Riri."

"I suppose it does not matter for now, Miss Pepondosovich," Riley shook his head, "But there is something I am more curious a-"

"And that concludes our history with the Order of Nothing," the Overseer then let out a short but very loud sigh as they reached the end of the museum, "And unfortunately, if we do not stop them, this museum is only going to become bigger...

...Do the two of you have any questions?"

"Oh. Me, me!" Miss Pepondosovich raised her hand, "It's interesting that you've been fighting them for more than... 400 years? If they are h.e.l.lbent on just killing everyone, and all of you haven't been able to give birth during the span of the Immortality event...

...then how come they haven't wiped everyone out yet?"

"Wiping us all out won't be that easy," the Overseer smiled, "There are trillions of us, it would take more than thousands of years to do what they want to do."

"Trillions... but didn't half of the population also die during the start of the Immortality event...?" Miss Pepondosovich squinted.

"Yes," the Overseer just nodded.

"...Riri," Miss Pepondosovich's eyes widened, "I think the Unknown universe is much, much bigger than the Known universe."

"That would make sense, Miss Pepondosovich," Riley nodded.

"The reason the war of the G.o.ds didn't reach this far is because they probably didn't bother and were just busy killing each other..." Miss Pepondosovich breathed out, "...Well, except for One, I suppose."

"You... seem to be somewhat familiar with Darkday," the Overseer could no longer contain her curiosity as she asked. She then gestured to the other people there to leave, even Aurora, who was tasked to follow the two around,

"Do... you know him from somewhere?"

"We do not, Overseer. We were only making a.s.sumptions about his true ident.i.ty," Riley then looked up at the Overseer, "And may I also ask you something else, Overseer?"

"... Of course," the Overseer squinted her eyes before nodding.

"You are incredibly tall so I did not truly think much of it at first," Riley blinked a couple of times, "But you are also from the Unknown, Overseer."

"Me...?" The Overseer also blinked a couple of times as she seemed confused with Riley's statement, "But... I've always just lived my life here?"

"Your hair, it has a very peculiar color to it," Riley looked at the Overseer's buzz-cut hair,

"You dyed it, correct?"

"...Yes? How did you-"

"I could see the tiny microscopic strands that are growing from your scalp, Overseer," Riley

tilted his head to the side, "It is a glowing silver...

... You are an Evaniel."
