As I fell asleep, I suddenly found myself within a landscape of darkness. The ground was dry and even purple-colored, and in the black sky, there were small dots of light resembling stars. And above all, a big and silver moon shone above the skies, illuminating everything with its beauty. I really didn't knew where I was, but it felt as if I had fallen into a strange dream.
I do remember I ate something I shouldn't had eaten past yesterday, and I've also taken over the dungeon infested by a very small fragment of the Evil God. I do wonder if that has something to do with this? It honestly feels strange.
Suddenly, as I wandered around this dream, I saw, from within the purple-colored ground, a large mound of dirt beginning to emerge, quickly taking shape into some sort of slightly humanoid entity… it had flaring red eyes.
"You… How dare you… eat a god such as myself…"
"Huh? Who are you?"
"Who am I? I might only be a fragment but… I am the one you all know as the Evil God."
"Evil God?! I am pretty sure I destroyed your will though?"
"I am a God, you foolish ghost! I cannot be defeated so easily. You might had eaten me with your strange powers, but I have come back within your very soul scape!"
"Soul scape…?"
The entity spoke with an annoyed and furious voice, he seemed to not be happy to be here. However, it was weird. He wasn't attacking me, nor trying to take over me or something either. He seemed to be glaring at me furiously while complaining.
"You dare do this to me! How could you eat such a being as myself?! I created your world with those other arrogant Gods! Yet you devour my fragment?!"
"Well you were doing something bad there, you were also trying to kill me. Also do you know there are other people using your fragments to make drugs and even some sort of demonic creatures?"
"I… Am not completely aware."
"What? Why?"
"Each fragment of my being has their own wills. In fact, I used to be a larger fragment myself! However, due to the punishment of the gods due to the mortals trying to use me, I was split in half an sealed in two different dungeons within the mountains…"
"Wait, is this why the Ant Queen was obsessed with getting to the next mountain?"
"…It was my will. The Ant Queen was a still developing Calamity I had personally revived by taking over the System's Dungeon, but it is all for naught now! I had plans to go to the surface and fill this world with Miasma so I can survive better."
"Survive… better?"
"Ugh, you're such a fool, of course it is for- Ah…"
"What?"
"I…. I can't remember why…"
"Eh?"
It seemed that he was suffering from memory loss to boot.
"It seems each of my fragments… have parts of my memories, within this will of mine, I cannot remember it all."
"So you're like… having permanent memory loss?"
"If I could find more of my fragments and absorb them I could regain more memories of my past."
"Do you know who you were before?
"A small amount of information remains, it seems I was- wait a second, why am I complacently answering all your questions?! You damn witch! What have you done to me?!"
The Evil God Fragment began to angrily bark at me as if I had committed some sort of atrocity against him. I mean he should be dead by now, but I think he's being overdramatic.
"Maybe you're just obeying my words because you're a part of myself?" I wondered.
"Eh?" He asked in shock.
"I ate you, there's no trace left of you. The part I devoured from you merged with my soul and helped me recover from the damage you caused to me… I think you've become part of myself, like getting an arm from someone else now that arm is part of my body. Get it?" I asked with a smile.
"T-That's… Being part of a mortal's soul?!" He asked in horror, seemingly shocked by the revelation.
"What's so wrong about that?" I sighed. "Also, tell me who you were before now."
I wasn't taking a "no" for an answer anymore. I had already realized that his will was now part of my soul and I could suppress him and make him obey me. Even more, the reason why he was answering everything I asked him was this.
"Y-You…!"
He tried to resist my order as he began groaning, however, he could not resist much any longer.
"You're mine now, little fragment. You'll obey my orders and do as I say… Because if you don't… Well, I can very easily tear the last bit of consciousness you hold, and simply acquire all your memories in one go. Don't you understand I am being merciful with you because I somewhat pity your existence? I mean, its pretty sad that all the gods attacked you and torn you apart, I kind of get why you're so angry… I was also abused and even killed. I am not saying you were innocent or something, but come on, they could had done it better, right?"
The Evil God Fragment's red eyes looked at me, as he sighed.
"I suppose… there MIGHT be some things… that we… are… err, a bit similar. But don't get over yourself either! I am a powerful GOD! Don't compare myself with your pathetic mortal soul." He said while crossing his arms.
"Okay, I'll destroy your will then, bye-bye." I said, smiling as I approached my hand towards him.
He immediately panicked.
"Wait, wait, wait! Okay, I get it! Wait a second please! PLEASE!"
He began to supplicate to me to not do it, as I sighed and smiled back at him a second time, completely intimidating him this time.
"Do you understand the position you are in now, little fragment?" I asked, giggling.
