Chapter 760 Power and Consequences
*****************
"...Feeling Alex’s power by myself is already bad enough, but seeing how the Endless Monarch outlined his abilities is making me feel more scared of him." Asteria muttered sullenly, as if what she had read made her feel somewhat nervous. "Hmph, it’s a really good thing that he’s my ally."
"However, that power from the Abyss is dangerous, and if Alex does not handle it well, his hooman life will be at risk."
"But since master has allowed it, then I should just wait and see what happens to Alex next..."
She stopped sulking at the next second though, as she continued browsing the info.
***************
[[[ESPER POWER(SIXTH STAGE)]]]
WHEN I ACCEPTED ALEX AS ONE OF MY ’INITIATES’, I HAD HIGH HOPES FOR HIS ESPER POWER TO REACH A HIGH LEVEL. IT WAS AFTER ALL, THE FIRST POWER THAT HE OBTAINED FROM MY SYSTEM.
BUT AFTER NUMEROUS MISSIONS, HIS ESPER POWER ONLY REACHED THE LEVEL JUST BELOW THE ABYSS MAGIC, AND THAT IS WITH THE SUPPORT GIVEN BY THE OTHER HALF-STEP TRANSCENDENT BEINGS.
NOW, I CAN PERFECTLY SAY THAT THE CURRENT LEVEL OF HIS ESPER POWER IS ALREADY IMPRESSIVE. BUT COMPARED TO HIS ABYSS MAGIC, THE FORMER CAN BE SAID AS NOTHING MORE BUT A SLIGHT HICCUP.
***************
"A slight hiccup? What is the Endless Monarch saying? Can’t he see how powerful Alex’s Esper Power is?"
"Not only does Alex can easily manipulate the four fundamental forces of the universe through his Esper Power, he is also edging closer to the true path of this ability!"
"Of course Alex is not yet there on that part, but given his talent, he can reach it in around 1-2 missions."
"..."
"..."
"...So I don’t think my hooman’s Esper Power is that disappointing. It’s just a little compromised because of that damned Abyss Magic."
"And besides! My hooman has not yet used the Esper Transcendence Shard for himself! If he uses that, I am 100% sure that his Esper Power will even be cooler than his s***y Abyss Magic!"
***************
[[[IMMORTAL CULTIVATION(PEAK FIFTH STAGE OR DAO DOMAIN STAGE)]]]
FROM THE LAST UPDATE, ALEX’S IMMORTAL CULTIVATION WAS BARELY STARTING AT THE FOURTH STAGE(NASCENT SOUL STAGE).
BUT AFTER THE SUPPORT GIVEN BY THE IMMORTAL TRANSCENDENCE SHARD, AND THE ADDITIONAL RESOURCES FROM THE HALF-STEP TRANSCENDENTS, ALEX BROKE THROUGH TO THE DAO DOMAIN STAGE.
DON’T ASK ME WHAT THE DAO DOMAIN STAGE IS. YOU PERFECTLY KNOW IT, AS I HAVE MENTIONED IT BEFORE.
[[[CONQUEROR’S AURA(SIXTH STAGE)]]]
THIS IS STILL AT THE SAME LEVEL OF POWER AS IT WAS BEFORE. IT HAS NO CHANGES AT ALL, AND I DOUBT IT WILL CHANGE.
THE ONLY TIME THAT THIS POWER WILL CHANGE IS WHEN ALEX DEVOURS THE ENTIRETY OF EMPEROR LITCH.
OH, AND THIS CHANGE IS A POSITIVE ONE, SO ANY ENEMIES OF ALEX SHOULD RUN AWAY IF THIS HAPPENS.
AS FOR HOW FAR THIS POWER COULD IMPROVE AFTER THIS DEVOURING EVENT, IT WILL DEPEND ON THE PRIOR PREPARATIONS THAT ALEX HAD BEFORE.
A COMPLETE CONQUEROR’S AURA CAN GIVE ALEX A HALF-STEP TRANSCENDENT LEVEL OF POWER, AND IT COULD GO STRONGER IF ALEX HAS HIS OWN PERSONAL LAW READY.
[[[VIBRATION MANIPULATION(FIFTH STAGE)]]]
ALTHOUGH THIS POWER HAS NOT RECEIVED A LARGE POWER SURGE FOR THE PAST MONTHS, ALEX HAD FINESSED ITS USE OF IT.
HE CAN ALREADY USE THIS POWER TO INDUCE VIBRATIONS ON THE CONCEPTS OF SPACE, TIME, AND DIMENSIONS THEMSELVES.
I ALSO NOTICED HIM USING THIS ABILITY TO INTRODUCE SUPERPOSITION BETWEEN HIS DIFFERENT ABILITIES, WHICH WORKED IN DIFFERENT AND INTERESTING WAYS.*
*BY INTRODUCING SUPERPOSITION BETWEEN HIS ESPER POWER AND ABYSS MAGIC, ALEX MANAGED TO FUSE HIS SEMI-CORRUPTED STATE WITH THE GRAVITATIONAL AND ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELD, WHICH IN TURN GAVE HIM ACCESS TO AN ATTACK THAT COULD AFFECT MULTIPLE DIMENSIONS.(THIS FEAT IS IMPRESSIVE, AND I DOUBT ANYONE AS YOUNG AS HIM CAN EMULATE IT.)
*BY INTRODUCING SUPERPOSITION BETWEEN HIS CONQUEROR’S AURA AND HIS ABYSS MAGIC, ALEX’S DISTORTION AND LAW-MAKING CAPABILITIES BECAME THE EQUIVALENT TO THAT OF A PEAK SIXTH STAGE BEING.
THE COMBINATION OF THE CONQUEROR’S AURA AND THE ABYSS MAGIC IS A GOOD TRUMP CARD THAT ALEX HAD SAVED IN HIS SLEEVES, BUT IT COULD BE BETTER, AS ALEX CAN THEORETICALLY MAKE THIS COMBINATION BECOME AS POWERFUL AS A HALF-STEP TRANSCENDENT BEING.
THE ONLY THING STOPPING HIM WAS THE BACKLASH, WHICH I ESTIMATE TO BE POWERFUL ENOUGH TO KILL HIM.
*BY INTRODUCING SUPERPOSITION BETWEEN HIS IMMORTAL CULTIVATION AND ABYSS MAGIC, WHAT ALEX GOT IS A SINGLE MALICIOUS ABILITY THAT ALMOST KILLED HIM.
I WON’T EXPLAIN WHAT THIS ABILITY IT, BUT IT IS YOUR JOB, ALEX’S GUIDE, TO ENSURE THAT YOUR HOOMAN WON’T HURT HIMSELF.
ALEX INTRODUCED MORE SUPERPOSITION COMBINATIONS AFTER THIS, BUT I DON’T HAVE THE INTEREST AND ENERGY TO ENUMERATE THEM. JUST REMEMBER THAT HE IS VENTURING ON A NEW WAY TO USE HIS ABILITIES, SO MAKE SURE THAT HE WILL STAY ALIVE FOR THIS DURATION.
NOW, THERE IS A HIGH CHANCE THAT THIS VIBRATION MANIPULATION ABILITY WILL ’EVOLVE’ SINCE IT IS A SUPERHUMAN POWER, SO EXPECT TO SEE MORE OUTRAGEOUS THINGS FROM YOUR HOOMAN IN THE FUTURE.
***************
"What? That damned hooman is using superposition on his powers themselves? What the f**k is he thinking?"
"Does Alex wants to die? F**king hell, and he did not even consult me about it!"
"Grr... When the heck did Alex start doing this?"
"Let’s see..."
"...."
"..."
"..."
"Oh, so he did the superpositions right after he became semi-corrupted?"
"Tsk, no wonder Alex looked tired as f**k even when he was being coddled by the Abyss. Instead of saving his body for more fights in the future, he is actually giving himself pressure from all these power combinations!"
"Argh!!! Now his makes me pissed! Alex could legitimately die from this!"

[ALINA]
[POWER SYSTEMS]
[[[DARK MAGIC(SIXTH STAGE)]]]
...I CAN SAY WITH CERTAINTY THAT ALINA’S TALENT WAS SO GREAT, THAT IF IT WEREN’T’ FOR ALEX’S EXISTENCE, SHE COULD BE TURNED INTO A TRAVELER BY SOMEONE ELSE.
SHE’S JUST... IMPRESSIVE, EVEN WHEN HER RESOURCES ARE SLIGHTLY LIMITED COMPARED TO HER TRAVELER.
NOW, I DON’T GIVE DISCREDIT FOR ALEX, SINCE HE MANAGED TO DO THE ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE(WHICH IS THE ACQUISITION OF 5 DIFFERENT POWERS), BUT ALINA’S CURRENT STATE IS ALSO NEAR MIRACULOUS.
SHE WAS AFTER ALL JUGGLING 3 DIFFERENT POWERS INSIDE HER BODY, AND EACH ONE WERE AT THEIR RESPECTIVE POWERFUL LEVELS TOO.
OUT OF THESE 3, HER DARK MAGIC IS A CUT ABOVE THE REST.
NOW LITTLE ASTERIA, I WON’T EXPLAIN TO YOU THE INTRICACIES OF ALINA’S DARK MAGIC, AS YOU HAD ALREADY WITNESSED IT FOR YOURSELF.
MIND MANIPULATION, MULTI-DIMENSIONAL SUMMONING, EXTREME SEALING, AND MANY MORE DERIVATIONS WERE ALREADY USED BY ALINA, AND SHE’S DISCOVERING MORE OF THEM EVERYDAY.
***************
"Huh? Alina’s Dark Magic is already that powerful? How come I did not feel that much danger from her?"
"...It must be because I am hungry. Right, I should be just hungry..."
***************
[[[ESPER POWER(PEAK SIXTH STAGE)]]]
ALINA’S ESPER POWER IS EVEN MORE IMPRESSIVE THAN HER DARK MAGIC, AS THIS ONE HAS ALREADY REACHED ITS PEAK LEVEL.
IT’S EVEN HIGHER THAN ALEX’S, AND SHE ONLY DID IT IN A SHORT SPAN OF TIME.
NOW, ALL THAT ALINA HAS TO DO IS TO DISCOVER THE TRUE NATURE OF HER ESPER POWER, AND SHE CAN ALREADY START CRAFTING HER PERSONAL LAW.
AS FOR HOW LONG IT WILL TAKE HER TO DO THIS, IT DEPENDS ON THE PERSON HERSELF....
[[[CHRONOMANCY(PEAK FIFTH STAGE)]]]
SINCE THIS ABILITY WAS THE LATEST ABILITY THAT ALINA OBTAINED, IT WAS NO SURPRISE TO ME THAT SHE’S HAVING A SLIGHT DIFFICULTY HERE.
ADD THE PRESENCE OF THAT MEDDLESOME GREAT TIMEMASTER, AND I DON’T THINK ALINA WILL HAVE THAT MUCH SUCCESS IN THIS POWER SYSTEM.
...BUT IF SHE DISCOVERS THE TRUE NATURE OF HER ESPER POWER, THEN THE NATURE OF HER CHRONOMANCY IS BOUND TO CHANGE TOO.
ONCE THAT HAPPENS, I DOUBT THAT THE GREAT TIMEMASTER COULD FULLY BOTHER ALINA AT ALL.
EXTRA POWER: ALL-SEEING EYES + OMNISCIENT SKIN - AH... NOW THIS IS A COMBINATION IS MAKING ME FEEL ALL TINGLY.
DON’T ASK ME WHY, AS YOU KNOW THAT THE COMBINATION OF TWO DIVINE SENSORY ORGANS IS ALREADY A CELEBRATION ON ITS OWN.
***************
"... I believe the Endless Monarch when he says that Alina’s combination of her All-Seeing Eyes and her Omniscient Skin is a good thing on itself, but I don’t think I should be too optimistic."
"After all, combining more of these organs could awaken the Divine Lady herself, and if that happens, Alina could be taken over and killed."
"..."
"..."

[PROFESSOR FRANCES]
[POWER SYSTEMS]
[[[SOUL MAGIC(SIXTH STAGE)]]]
...I TURNED PROFESSOR FRANCES INTO A TRAVELER BEFORE BECAUSE I KNOW OF HER TALENT IN THE FIELD OF SOUL MAGIC. (OF COURSE I ALSO TURNED HER INTO A TRAVELER BECAUSE SHE PISSED ME OFF.)
IT TOOK HER ONLY AROUND 2-3 MISSIONS TO REACH THE SIXTH STAGE OF SOUL MAGIC, WHICH IS THE FASTEST IMPROVEMENT RATE THAT I HAVE EVER SEEN IN THIS PROGRAM.
....
....
I HOPE TO SEE MORE OF THESE IMPROVEMENTS IN THE FUTURE, WHICH I FEEL WILL HAPPEN AGAIN IN YOUR CURRENT WORLD.
.....
....
OH, AND GIVEN HER PENCHANT FOR CREATING LIFE, I ALSO FEEL THAT PROFESSOR FRANCES WILL EASILY DISCOVER THE TRUE NATURE OF HER SOUL MAGIC.
JUST WATCH HER AND OBSERVE IF SHE MESSES SOMETHING UP.
EXTRA POWERS: LIFE-CREATION AND BIOLOGICAL MANIPULATION – WITH THE WAY THAT HER KNOWLEDGE ABOUT SOULS AND LIFE IS INCREASING, I HAVE THE FEELING THAT PROFESSOR FRANCES CAN BECOME A SELF-TAUGHT CREATOR IN THE FUTURE.
*******************
"Hoho, I thought I will see the professor get cussed on her profile again. It seems like the Endless Monarch has mellowed down..."
"...."
"..."
"Did master mellow down because he thought Professor Frances can be a Creator? Yeah, it looks like it, and I can’t blame my master for that."
"Creators are hard to find after all, and I know for a fact that master needs one of them..."

[QUEEN MOTHER]
[POWER SYSTEMS] – CONFIDENTIAL
BEFORE YOU COULD GET ANGRY, YOU SHOULD UNDERSTAND THAT QUEEN MOTHER’S SPECIE IS ONE THAT SHOULD NEVER HAVE BEEN INCLUDED IN THIS PROGRAM.
IN FACT, I MADE SURE TO MAKE THAT IMPOSSIBLE.
UNFORTUNATELY FOR ALL OF US, QUEEN MOTHER BECAME A COMPANION, AND It Was The Fault Of Your Hooman, Asteria!
NOW, I WON’T EXPLAIN TO YOU HOW BAD THE SITUATION WAS AFTER QUEEN MOTHER BECAME A COMPANION.
LET’S JUST SAY THAT A CERTAIN.... BUDDY OF MINE TRIED TO KILL ME BECAUSE OF THIS MATTER.
ALL IS WELL NOW THOUGH, SO DON’T WORRY FOR ME.
WHAT YOU SHOULD WORRY INSTEAD IS YOUR LIFE, AS YOU ARE IN DANGER RIGHT NOW. ESPECIALLY IF YOUR BELOVED TREE WOMAN DIES IN THAT PLACE...
****************
"W-Wait a second! How come I have to fend for my life now? It’s Alex’s fault that he pulled in Queen Moher in the first place!"
"He should be the one facing the consequences of it, and not me!"
"Argh!!!"
