"By exploiting chaos, the Supernatural World came into being." Jiang Qiao repeated in a low voice.
"Yes."
"The word 'exploit' implies order. Chaos is disorder. Being able to exploit chaos is inherently contradictory, and actually accomplishing it isn't as easy as you might think."
Moon Laurel said this.
"Their ending probably wasn't a good one."
"And there's no way to tell how many years ago their civilization existed."
"But the remnants of their seeds—those strange, virus-like things—fell to the outskirts of the galaxy."
"Eventually, through a twist of fate."
"They fell to our homeworld in the form of meteorites."
"And the beginning of the Extraordinary Individuals was born."
"The so-called Extraordinary Individuals later sought out greater power and eventually found the source."
"If the Supernatural World was a virus..."
"A small amount of virus could stimulate the immune system."
"But the source..."
"Many of the people who went there underwent mutations, and that marked the true beginning of the Supernatural World."
"When the Supernatural World infected the entire civilization..."
"Many people died."
"Many powerful individuals were also born."
"That era was accompanied by bloodshed and slaughter. It was an age when civilization and savagery coexisted."
"Later..."
"The Supernatural World attracted evil things from the depths of the universe."
"It's difficult to say."
"There's a theory that those evil things were the civilization that created the Supernatural World. In the end, they were thoroughly eroded by it and became deformed monsters—chaotic entities with the ability to think."
"After all, on a cosmic scale, even the smallest probability can come to pass."
"These Evil Spirits are very strange."
"They possess thought but have no memories, like brains drifting through the void."
Moon Laurel paused when he reached this point.
Then he continued:
"Actually, you've come into contact with them."
"Me?" Jiang Qiao
