Chapter 4 - 4 – “Root Access Unlocked: I Am the Bug in Your Code” 🌌 System Space – Between Realms [Would you like to accept Root Access?][Y/N] Rin hovered in a void of shifting code and half-deleted stars. The voice that spoke wasn't divine. It wasn't demonic either.It was machine-like, ancient, raw... yet somehow familiar. "...What's the catch?" [Root Access grants override privileges. System laws may be rewritten. You will be hunted.] [Only one being can hold Root Access. The others will try to erase you.] [Proceed?] Rin exhaled, fingers twitching. "You really think I'm scared of being hunted? I've been dodging social interaction since age 14."

"That's the most honest system message I've ever seen." 🌍 Back to Reality – Demon Wastes Fortress He awoke to the scent of ash and... stew? Lilith sat beside him with a worried pout, stirring a black bubbling pot. "Papa, you're awake! You were out for a whole day. I made... food." Rin peeked in the pot. Was it moving? "Lilith, is that stew or a baby mimic?" "...Yes." He chuckled, groaning as he sat up. [You are now permanently tagged by Heaven as "Anomaly-Class Threat."][All Divine AI Protocols will pursue you across realms.][Wanted Status: Global] "Great. First time being a dad, and I already got us blacklisted from Heaven." 🏛️ Meanwhile – Demon Capital, Abyss Throne The Demon Council sat in a massive obsidian chamber. Fire crackled in braziers. Magical sigils floated in the air, pulsing with blood contracts. A demonic woman with four horns slammed a scroll on the table. "Valtazar is alive. His soul signature reactivated." "Impossible. He died with the Demon King." "He didn't just revive—he wiped a Divine Construct. Solo. In a Trauma Rift." The room fell silent. Then came a slow clap. From the shadows emerged a man in a black coat, silver eyes glowing faintly. "Guess Daddy's back..." 🧑‍💻 Back on Earth – Tokyo, Cyber Intelligence Facility Subject: Rin KatsuroStatus: DeceasedBody: Never recovered A man stared at a screen. Blonde hair. Eyes glowing blue. "So that bastard really uploaded his soul before dying..." He walked to a machine humming in the corner—a dimensional gate prototype labeled: "Project Return." "Let's see what's so special about your little isekai, Rin." [Initiating Transfer Protocol...][Target Realm: Ereborn] Lightning surged. The screen flashed red. [New player has entered the world: "Aikawa Kento"][Class: Cyber Paladin][Objective: Kill Rin Katsuro.

Rin looked up at the sky, eyes glowing faintly. "We won't run." "Then what'll we do?" He stood, wrapping a broken cape around his shoulders. "Simple." "We'll crash the system."
