After looking at Brisingra and Mercedes talk, I also noticed another endearing conversation, right behind me, where Titania's Spiritual Projection and little Titania were talking.

"Will I one day really become like you, big sis?" Little Titania asked, with endearing innocence.

"Yes… You will one day become like me," Titania smiled. "You will become big, and strong… A-And you will be able to protect your people too."

Despite her words that seemed cheerful, Titania was also sorrowful, she had already learned all of this would disappear soon enough.

"And will I also make a lot of friends like you did?" Little Titania kept asking.

"Yeah, yes, you will…" Titania nodded.

"And… What's wrong? Why are you so sad?" Little Titania asked. "You should be happy instead! You won!"

"I-I… I guess so, yeah," Titania nodded, hugging her little self.

"Eh?" Little Titania was surprised by the sudden hug.

"I'll never forget you…" Titania started crying. "My younger self… You'll always remain within me, okay?"

"Huh? O-Okay…" Little Titania was confused, but ended accepting the hug, and hugging Titania back as well.

As I watched the scene, I felt even more frustrated with myself.

What was the point of everything?

Of all these bonds we made…

If everything is going to the damn gutter once we're done?

And wasn't this Dungeon made using a Time Memory Fragment? Maybe there's a way.

If it's truly a fragment of time, perhaps it is not completely just an illusion, maybe these are truly the memories of the past given life.

Then… what can I do? How can I change this?

I remember there was something… Something I had gotten.

It was back then when Mercedes lost her stability and began to distort everything within the "world" of the past.

I had gotten a special, and strange reward.

It was…

Ah, right!

[System Administrator Privileges]!

I think it was a one-time use thingy? But I would only get it once the dungeon is over, right?

Then it would be useless, unless…

"Hey, Helper, are you there?"

FLASH!

Suddenly, an old friend appeared before me.

Made of white and silver light, it was the Helper Spirit every Player gets.

He has been helping me in the background since the beginning of my journey, and even now, he's there.

"Yeah, I know what you want," he already had guessed. "You want to use your [System Administrator Privileges] even though you haven't received it yet, right?"

"Yes…" I nodded. "Is it possible?"

"Hmmm… I'll have to ask the Administrators or the System Synapsis itself… But after all we've gone through, I also kind of feel bad about this. Let me ask them," he said.

"T-Thank you so much!" I almost cried.

"No need to start crying…" he sighed, disappearing.

Hah…

I guess that's that.

He might take longer than-

FLASH!

"I'm back."

"Eh?! So fast!"

"The Administrators say they want to meet you first before letting you use the privilege, because they know what you want to use it for already."

"Already?"

"Of course, it is as clear as looking at your crybaby face, Planta!"

"Okay… Just what are these Administrators? The Gods, right?"

"No, while the Gods manage the world, the quests, and the Players, Administrators are different." Said the Helper Spirit. "They manage the deepest areas of the System, what makes everything work as intended. This even includes how the world changes and transforms by the System's powers. The Gods have a saying, they can usually vote if they're on favor or not of things.

But they… they are the ones that decide when things happen."

"I had no idea these people existed…" I sighed. "Wait, could they be related to Nexus Corporations? The ones that launched BNLO and-"

"It's better for you to met them yourself." The Helper Spirit said. "I don't have the right to speak any further, so please, let me bring you there."

"Wait, you're bringing me there- Uwaah!"

FLASH!

The Helper Spirit grabbed me and teleported me away in an instant. I found my entire body traveling through many strange membranes, as if each membrane separated the world itself.

Eventually, my body dropped over a cold, white floor. Everywhere I looked, there was endless darkness, and four giant pillars standing around the white floor.

There was a faint light above the skies, a gigantic white and silver colored crystal, which was connected to… everything.

I saw millions after millions of circuits of blue light, connected through the darkness, which expanded beyond it, and probably to the world of Arcadia itself.

I saw countless system windows appear across the darkness, connecting endless across a sea of information and electromagnetic energies.

Where…

Where am I?!

The four pillars trembled, rumbling, as four figures made themselves clear to my eyes amidst the darkness. The light of the giant crystal illuminating their existences.

I couldn't discern how they properly looked even as I glanced though, it was as if my eyes themselves couldn't comprehend what they were aside from… an outside appearance.

But even then, it was confusing, and my head hurt the more I looked at them.

"What is this… place?" I asked. "A-Are you…? Are you the Administrators?"

"We are."

"You must be Planta."

"We have been looking at you since you created your account."

"You are one of the few that carry the forbidden knowledge of BNLO."

They spoke one after another, as if their minds were connected. I could barely discern, the first one resembled a child. I couldn't tell which child. The second was a tall man, wearing some sort of black suit. The third was a woman, a young woman wearing a ballet dress, I think? And the fourth was an old man, with a long beard, I think he had glasses and was carrying a book.

"I am known as Entertainment, nice to meet cha!"

"I am Balance. It is hard to keep an eye on you."

"I am Gameplay! I make things be nice and dandy!"

"I am the Archiver, but others call me Story. I weave an endearing world."

They all had simple titles; it represented an aspect of BNLO as a videogame.

The four aspects that make a videogame.

Entertainment, Balance, Gameplay, and Story!
