Trapped in Another World With No Magic

Chapter 134: The New Goddess of Zenkon

Ryukana is a goddess belonging to the Divine Realm, a sort of management center created with the intention of watching over and guiding the continued existence of the innumerable worlds scattered across the whole of reality.

But, not so different from the humans, gatonines, drakyks, Grodrrns, and all of the other varied peoples and beings, Ryukana is a creation.

There are only two true creators responsible for forging existence into what it is, defining even the intricacies of such things as gravity, nuclear forces, light, dark, magic, life, death, decay, growth, and everything else that comes together to define all of the things that can be perceived or experienced.

Those two creators are the original existences, and their appearance belies their true power.

They are known simply as Order and Chaos, even to the gods and goddesses of the Divine Realm.

Ryukana knows that the two apparent goddesses transcend existence, including having a physical form. However, for ease of communication, they often take humanoid forms, like one of their earliest sentient creations. Presently, Order appears as she always does; a mature and stoic woman of great beauty that even Ryukana can't truly compare to. The Primordial Goddess retains a simple appearance with a basic set of robes that possess no frills or ornamentation.

Chaos, on the other hand, is the one who tends to take different forms. At the tribunal for Ryukana's negligence, the entropic goddess appeared as a young girl, roughly in her early teens, making her of similar apparent youthfulness to Hekate. Now, however, she appears as an elder Queen, absolutely glowing with sparkling jewels floating around her and brightly shining adornments, contrasting starkly with her counterpart.

Ryukana respects both of her creators immensely, but she is wary of Chaos, specifically. As an entity, Chaos lives by whimsy. She has no real scruples, in the typical moral sense, meaning she could decide suddenly to simply erase something in front of her. Though she rarely simply annihilates anything, she always gives off the aura that she might at any moment.

Chaos asks a little facetiously, "Confused as to where you are?"

"I... understand where I am, but I seem to be unable to comprehend it, my Lady Chaos."

"That is because this is the first time you have been brought outside of existence looking in," replies Order gently. "We did not create any of you with the ability to see the structure."

Chaos mimics a human from earth, producing a fan from her dress's elegant sleeves and hiding her smirking face as she teases, "We wouldn't want any of you trying to conquer us and usurp us. Heeheeheeheee."

"I-Is... Would that even be possible?" asks Ryukana, made curious only by the fact that Chaos brought it up, but having never given it a single thought. Both of the Primordial Goddesses transcend her actual understanding, and they could simply snap her out of existence without any warning. The Divine Realm goddess wouldn't even be able to comprehend that she no longer existed. She would simply end, and that would be it.

Likewise, they could simply turn her into a true human, or even an insect, a germ, or something inorganic like a sword or a rock. She has heard rumors of a goddess that was turned into a sword once, though she didn't pay it any real attention, since that had to have been a punishment for a screw up.

Seeming to read every thought crossing her mind, Chaos smiles deviously. "Interesting..." is all she says before Order answers the question Ryukana asked.

"There have been many attempts since the beginning of time to escape beyond the edge of existence into our true realm, but only one ever succeeded."

Ryukana stares at her in utter shock. "Wha-... Really? Who was it?"
