Multiversal Friendship System

"A Divine Spark that doubles as a Divine Domain and allows free movement in the mortal realm without faith-based limitations?"

Hearing the system's explanation, Souta was stunned.

The D&D deity system—how should he put it? It was an insanely versatile power system.

Why?

Because Divine Power was basically the ultimate cheat code.

As long as a god had enough Divine Power, they could do practically anything—making them omnipotent in their own right.

However, the Overgod had imposed restrictions on the gods, introducing the faith dependency flaw.

(TL Notes: An Overgod, also called an over-power, was a type of deity or set of principles that existed beyond the normal ranking of the gods, bounds of the normal cosmology, and of concepts such as alignment. Overpowers were, whether entities or ethics, that which was venerated by the gods themselves, or at the very least respected or deferred to.)

Before this restriction, gods didn't rely on faith at all—even if all their followers died, they wouldn't perish.

They could simply generate Divine Power by acting in alignment with their divine domain.

For example, a god of deception would gain Divine Power just by deceiving people.

And their power scaling potential was insanely high.

All in all, the D&D deity system was ridiculously powerful.

Now, Souta was very interested in this Divine Spark reward.

He asked, "What level is this Divine Spark? And what divine domain does it come with?"

[Divine Spark Level: 0 (Infinitely Upgradable). No assigned divine domain.]

The system's cold, robotic voice echoed in his mind.

Souta: "…"

Level 0? Okay, that made sense.

But no divine domain?

Then how was this even a D&D Divine Spark?

All Divine Sparks came with a domain—a completely blank Divine Spark was unheard of.

"If it doesn't come with a domain, how does the user acquire one?"

Souta asked the obvious question.

In D&D, as long as someone met the conditions and declared themselves a god of something, they would automatically receive a corresponding divine domain and ascend to godhood.

But if this version of godhood was modded, then how did it work?

[The Final Overhaul Edition D&D Divine Spark allows the user to ignite Divine Fire, convert faith into Divine Power, and cultivate their abilities into Divine Domains.]

[For example, if the host obtains this Divine Spark, they can ignite Divine Fire, collect faith to generate Divine Power, and then use that power to upgrade their existing abilities—such as Time Manipulation, Half-Cold-Half-Hot, or Matter Creation—into full-fledged Divine Domains.]

"So… I can literally turn my abilities into Divine Domains by feeding them Divine Power?"

Souta was shocked.

That was…

Kind of broken.

[Correct. The host's abilities originate from distinct fictional worlds, each governed by unique rules. As such, they are essentially 'Divine Domain Seeds.' By nourishing them with Divine Power, they can be fully developed into true Divine Domains.]

Upon hearing this, Souta's desire skyrocketed.

This Divine Spark…

Was ridiculously overpowered.

It wasn't just a Divine Spark.

It provided:

💠 A built-in Divine Domain

💠 A method to ignite Divine Fire without side effects

💠 A way to cultivate abilities into Divine Domains

💠 No faith dependency

💠 Infinite scalability

This was insane.

It wasn't just a power boost—it was practically an entirely new power system.

If this thing ever hit the system's shop, its price would probably be astronomical.

Now, Souta really wanted it.

Not only would it make him a god, but it would also solve all his energy system issues.

Instead of limited stamina, he'd be using Divine Power as fuel.

Talk about luxury.

While Souta was fantasizing about his future godhood, Shinobu, who had been silently observing, finally spoke.

Her gaze flicked to Kurumi, her tone calm but pointed.

"Your wish is… contradictory and unrealistic. You want both the fish and the bear's paw?"

During the brief downtime, she had apparently researched Kurumi's world.

Which meant she now understood exactly how ridiculous this new mission was.

She was one step away from saying, "You're delusional."

Kurumi didn't respond.

Because she knew.

Trying to:

💠 Save all the Spirits

💠 Erase the Eurasian Sky Disaster

💠 Stop Mio Takamiya from refining Sephira Crystals

Without breaking the timeline?

That was a nightmare-level mission.

Just then, their phones vibrated again.

Souta, Kurumi, and Shinobu all picked up their phones at the same time.

It was Altair, messaging the group chat.

Altair: "I won't waste time saying 'thank you' over and over, but… I'll remember this favor."

Altair: "By the way, did you guys see the new mission? 'Date A Live' is Kurumi's world, right?"

Souta: "Yeah. You're probably not familiar with it, so let me give you a brief rundown."

After sending that message, Souta quickly summarized the main plot of Date A Live in the chat.

He focused on the key events and mission-related details, making sure Altair understood the stakes before deciding whether to join.

After reading through the information, Altair responded almost immediately.

Altair: "This mission is… ridiculously difficult. It's a historical paradox that needs to be resolved perfectly."

Souta: "Yeah. The Eurasian Sky Disaster was caused by Mio Takamiya's existence. But Mio is also the creator of all the Spirits. If we time-travel back and eliminate the event that led to Mio's birth, the Spirits will never exist. That means mission failure."

Souta: "So we can't touch Mio. And honestly, I don't think we could even if we tried. That means our only option is to directly erase the Eurasian Sky Disaster from history without affecting anything else."

In Date A Live, Spirits existed in a parallel dimension.

When they manifested in the real world, they caused Spacequakes—violent spatial tremors that varied in destructive power.

💠 C-Rank Spacequakes: Damage radius of a few dozen meters.

💠 B-Rank Spacequakes: Can flatten a 1km radius.

💠 S-Rank Spacequakes: Can wipe out entire cities.

Kurumi had once caused an S-Rank Spacequake that erased Tenguu City from existence.

And an SS-Rank could annihilate an entire country.

But none of those compared to the Eurasian Sky Disaster.

That SSS-Rank Spacequake had completely devastated China, Russia, and Mongolia.

The destruction radius was estimated at 800km—the equivalent of a 112-megaton hydrogen bomb.

Shinobu: "I'll be blunt—there's no way we can stop something of that magnitude."

Even she admitted it?

That was concerning.

Altair: "Even you can't handle it? I thought Souta said you were incredibly strong."

Souta: "Shinobu's strength lies in close combat and regeneration. Spacequakes, however, are essentially conceptual disasters—they probably don't even have a tangible form. Physical attacks would be useless against them."

Just as he sent that message, his phone vibrated again.

This time, it wasn't a group chat notification.

It was a system prompt.

Souta: "…Wait, what?"
