<div> "What would happen if I were to decline your request?"
 This was Alex's first question, making Greeny's expression freeze. He was unable to realize why Alex was asking that question, but soon, realization flashed past his eyes, making a wistful smile appear on his lips.
 "You can rest assured. We would not force you to do our work, nor will we be on your back, trying to kill you just because you denied our request." Greeny looked deep into Alex's eyes, not avoiding eye contact, as eyes always spoke the truth before he added, "We are looking for someone who could become one of our trusted friends, not someone who would accept our request out of fear."
 Greeny paused, staring at Alex, as he continued, "The only reason I used everything in my power to come here under the system's nose was to leave a good impression of our family in your mind—to make you trust us, to make our bond stronger even if it is because I am able to provide you more information."
 His eyes then turned toward the fairy, matching her gaze, as if asking for permission for something, and only when she nodded that he speak up again.
 "You see, I, as a demigod, have way fewer restrictions over me than the gods, and so, unlike her, who will be kicked out of the game because of the smallest thing she reveals about the game, I can answer some of your questions, but only if they are about the game; nothing else."
 But just when he ended his words, the fairy frowned, "Greeny, we don't have much time; the system is catching up to you."
 Her words alerted both Alex and Greeny, but the giant just nodded his head without asking how the fairy knew that, and so did Alex.
 The fairy, on the other hand, had her mind focused on the message that flashed in front of her main body or more like every god in the game.
 [The Anomaly is being searched, and it will be attended to in a while; please be patient.]
 That was what the system had said, and even if Greeny was strong—strong enough to enter the game without getting detected by the system—he couldn't hide himself for long if the system really did start searching for him.
 This is her game after all. She was the one he had the most control over this game.

 </div> "Please ask away if you have any questions related to the world and the game. I would try my best to answer your questions if I could." Spoke Greeny, not wanting to waste any time, and Alex, who heard those words, nodded his head.
 "What is this game? Why are we forced to play it?" Questioned Alex, his palms clasped together and expression serious. This was a question that had always been on his mind.
 "This game... well, this game is a way of introducing your world with mana—something every world has to go through in order to grow." Greeny's words, a bit slow, as he was thinking deeply about it, made their way to Alex's ears, but the giant wasn't done yet.
 "As for your other question, you guys aren't forced to play the game; you guys are forced to give the test. This game is like a test for you guys."
 Those words from Greeny made Alex frown.
 "Test? Are we being tested? For what? And is it not just some kind of sick joke of a game that is used by the gods to entertain themselves?" Asked Alex, not even bothered by a bit that a god was, right now, sitting on his shoulder, but his question made both Greeny and the fairy go still, their expressions mirroring each other.
 Confusion, doubt, and realization—this was the transition cycle of their emotions, and after that realization came laughter.

 "Haha."
 The fairy's pearl-like laugh echoed through the room, and Greeny, as if infected by it, couldn't stop his chuckle.
 "You thought it was just a source of entertainment for those gods?" The fairy just kept on laughing, not speaking anything further as that would make the system track them down faster, but Greeny did.
 "In a way, it is true that the gods see this game as a source of entertainment, but that is not all that is. Those gods are fighting each other, killing even, just so they could get a seat in this game."
 Greeny paused for a bit, a thoughtful expression marring his face as if he were trying to think of some word, but in the end, he sighed, "Hah... I cannot tell you what the real reason is, but I can tell you this: instead of playing this game so that you could kill the gods or exact revenge on them for making you go through all that, you should take this as an opportunity."
 "Yes, you should." The fairy, who had stopped laughing, whipping the tears away with her small, soft fingers, nodded her head as well, and Alex, listening to their words, nodded his head before he moved to the next question.
 "What about these creatures? These beasts and monsters, where do they come from?" This was his next but not the last question. He wanted to make use of this opportunity to clear however much of his doubts he could.
 He still wasn't sure if he would accept the request of Greeny's family, but that was for him to think about when the time arrived, and the reward was still not decided. Everything depends on the reward.
 What Alex didn't know was that many people, even the gods, would kill to get the friendship of Greeny's family. That alone was a reward bigger than anything else. But Alex, who didn't even know the full extent of Greeny's power, didn't know that, and maybe he won't know it for a very long time.
 "Those creatures that you are talking about are like animals from other planets; they were turned into mindless beasts after the world was influenced by mana, and now they are used by the system to fill the monster count of the scenarios."
 Greeny didn't hesitate for a moment as he answered Alex's question without a second's delay, knowing full well that they were tight on time.
 "What happens to the humans of the world that didn't pass—" Alex, nodding his head, hurriedly moved on to the next question, wanting to know the fate of the humans from other worlds that had failed the test.
 It was shocking to know that there were many other worlds with life on them out there, but with all of the shit going on, nothing looked impossible.
 More worlds having their people pulled into a game was acceptable, but from Greeny's words, Alex could tell that those games were now over, so he wanted to know what happened. How did things end up for those worlds?
 But before he could complete his words...
 "She found us." With a sigh, the fairy's words were heard, making both Alex and Greeny tense.
 "I guess this is it—" Greeny tried to speak, but his words were cut off as his body jerked, and he frowned.

 </div> "She's trying to make me a part of the scenario." Greeny's words confused Alex, but not the fairy, so she quickly responded.
 "Teleport your main body's consciousness out of here, and just leave this secondary body out here. Take away your abilities since the system might be able to make use of it in some way."
 Those words were accepted by Greeny as he nodded respectfully, and with a last glance at Alex, he spoke, "Please consider my offer, and when the time comes, please try to accept it. Our sister's life is in your hands."
 He knew that his words might have put some weight on Alex's shoulders, as those words clearly meant that Alex's decision would decide his sister's fate, but he was desperate; what else could he do?
 What he didn't know was that Alex wasn't in any way affected by those words. He couldn't care less if the world were to die if he could survive. So, if the task he needed to do in order to save Greeny's sister involved him risking his life more than he would want, then there was no way he was going to accept it.
 But Greeny wasn't done; with a smile, he added, "Now, I have to leave, and you should as well, because as soon as I move out of here, the tree, which will have nothing but husks left out, will attack anyone or anything in the surroundings."
 Soon after, the giant started to whither away, as if breaking down, disappearing from there, going back to where it came from, leaving only Alex and the fairy in that place.
 "Should we cuddle for a bit—" The fairy with a smile on her face enthusiastically turned to look at Alex, only to find herself falling from Alex's shoulder as he got up, ready to leave the tree, making her pout as she floated up.
 "Hmph! Is this what I get for helping you out?" She hmphed, turning her head away, but Alex, knowing very well that it was nothing but an act to make him feel guilty, didn't turn back and rushed out of the trunk that had been opened, making way for him.
 And not long after he was gone, the fairy left alone in that place snapped her finger. Enjoy exclusive chapters from novelbuddy
