The Laziest System: Sign-Up System

"Fuck"

The others do not mind me saying that out loud and even agree with what I say.

Pandora's Box is not just a box. It is a container that contains the Primordial of Hope and Suffering of Greek Mythology. It is a container that contains those primordial concepts. It is not a being but rather a concept itself.

If you use that kind of thing as a battery… It can destroy the world if used correctly.

"How do you know Pandora's Box got stolen if you only know they are attacking us now?"

Amaterasu looked at Hades with a curious expression. The skeleton looks at her and says.

"After I know Tartarus has been breached, I immediately order an inspection across my realm. That is why I know they somehow get their hands into Pandora's Box."

"Shit. Do you know if they can use it?"

"If they only open the box, we can take care of it without getting too many casualties. However, I know my father. He will not stop with just that. He will create something big that will cause as much destruction as possible."

"That means we need to search for him and prevent him from doing whatever he wants to do."

"It is easy to say. The reality is that my father is a sneaky bastard. We need something to track him, but we don't have anything."

Wait—the hourglass! We have a clue. Kronos using an item from Chronos. We can start there. I raise my finger, but before I can say something, I feel a foreign feeling in the middle of the room.

Amaterasu, Susanoo, and Tsukuyomi prepare for battle, but Hades raises his hand and says,

"Please hold your attack."

A second later, I see a three-meter-tall woman appear from the ground. She has green skin, two pairs of antlers on her head, and roots and leaves for hair. I can feel my Senjutsu react to her and see that the other Youkai also feel that connection.

I have a feeling I know this person.

Zeus, Hades, and Hestia look at her in shock before Zeus gets up and says.

"Grandmother!"

Yup. I know it. The only person that Zeus calls Grandmother is Gaia, the Greek Personification of the Earth. Zeus opens his mouth and says.

"How do you appear here? I thought you were too weak to move because of the taint of the world."

She smiles and looks at me.

"You can thank that human over there. Without him and his technique, the world will no longer be able to support life in a few centuries. However, with his technique, he extended the life of this planet."

Zeus and Hades look at me with a new light while Hestia gives me a bright smile of happiness.

"However, that is not the reason why I came here. I know the goal of my son. He and his fellow titans of disappointment…"

Oof, you don't want to hear that from your mother.

"... want to use Pandora's Box to taint Yggdrasil. They want to destroy the World Tree and give birth to corrupted creatures that wreak havoc across the world."

Zeus looks at her in shock before slowly saying.

"But why? This is not like him. He wants power, not chaos. He only wants to take back the throne and not cause wanton destruction. He said it himself that he didn't want to be a king of a lifeless kingdom. He will enslave all life, but he will never destroy them."

Hades and Hestia nod their heads in agreement. It looks like they also know about this. Hestia looks at Gaia and says.

"Grandmother, do you know the reason why he wants to create this much chaos?"

"He is hesitant at first, but after joining the group, he changes his opinion. I only know this information because of the connection between the two of us. However, when he notices me, he immediately closes the connection. The last thing I notice is that they want to create a hole between two dimensions to invade another world."

Gaia looks at us and says with a serious tone.

"They want to destroy this world and conquer the other world. They want to use the ability of Yggdrasil to travel between the pocket dimensions of this world, expand it, and breach the other dimension."

Fuck. Are you telling me I need to worry about them inviting the ExE Gods now? I look to the side and see Yasaka look at me in worry. She is also afraid of them doing what Issei originally did.

I need to kill Issei quickly and focus on the Khaos Brigade.

"They are too stupid to think about the consequences of their actions. They think they are the most powerful and don't know what kind of powerful being is on the other side of the dimension. There is a reason why the Great Red is guarding the Dimensional Gap. There are a lot of powerful beings out there."

Gaia looks at us one more time before saying.

"Please prevent them from destroying the Yggdrasil. I will prepare a trap around Yggdrasil and become the last defense against them. If they manage to corrupt the World Tree, we are doomed."

After saying that, Gaia disappears into the ground and leaves us alone in the room. It lasts for a few minutes before Hestia looks at Amaterasu and says.

"Amaterasu, I think it is time for our two factions to become an ally. At least until this mess is over. We need to warn the Norse Pantheon without alerting the Khaos Brigade of us knowing this information."

Amaterasu nods her head and says.

"We are willing to become an ally to the Greek Faction for the foreseeable future. How is it, Zeus?"

Amaterasu offers her hand to Zeus, and the God of Lightning grabs it.

"Ally."

While the two of them are talking with the Shinto Gods, Hades looks at us and says,

"You, human. You must do whatever you're doing that heals our Grandmother. She needs all the power you can give her."

I look at Yasaka and Nurarihyon. Seeing them nod their heads, I say.

"We will give our best, Lord Hades."

"Don't worry about resources. I shall give them to you."

Ooh! Free resources. Nice.

"We need to call Odin."

Susanoo suddenly says.

"I know where he is and how to get his attention."

Tsukuyomi rolls his eyes and says,

"Of course, you know how to call him. You and he have the same taste, after all."

"Of course! The old bastard has great taste in women."

"Enough."

Amaterasu stops the two of them before they can go wild.

"Susanoo, please invite Odin to have a meeting between our three factions. Make sure to be discreet. Don't tell him why, but tell him it is urgent."

"Don't worry, sis. Leave it to me."

Amaterasu nods and says.

"Then this meeting is over."
