BXBX NOVEL Chapter 264 The Dungeon Template
'Though the law of Guidance seems enticing, I'll leave that to Teach. As for the law of knowledge, it might come in handy someday. I can even learn any and all magic spells by then.'
'As for the Divinity, there is only one of them so I can't choose between it. The Skills, seem rather intetesting. After this, I should also check out my Divine Skills as well.'
'Now, the first one makes him nigh-omniscience in regard to Wisdom. Does that mean he will know almost literally anything in regard to Wisdom, Knowledge and spells? Sweet.'
'[Intelligence Infinitum] is like my Physique, but in regards to knowledge. The person can learn anything regardless of difficulty, as long as they put in time for it.'
'[Path to Victory] was like my Fate, it made it possible to see through many scenarios, allowing one to choose the best possible way to victory. Genuine Infinite Possibilities!!!'
'[Psychopomp] allows him to guide souls to dead lands such as Hell, Purgatory or even the Abyss, in Terra's case. The [Dimensional Travel] one will allow him to freely travel between the Netherworld and here... but there is no Netherworld in Terra.'
'Then, will he be sent to the infinite realms? [Necropresence], suits well with Psychopomp. It allows one to be everywhere, where death is. This can also be a form of traveling through Space... or beyond Space.
'Then the last one is self-explanatory. I mean, it just allows him to guide people to advance forward... I'll take the law of Knowledge, nigh-omniscience(Wisdom), Psychopomp and Intelligence Infinitum.'
He made his choices without batting an eyelid. The first and second were because he wanted to try and delb in magic for a bit. The second one just sounded a bit cool and fun to try.
And since he knew that he will have an armory of Skills, might as well as prepare his mind to be able to handle all the Skills, while not going overdrive or mixing up their functions.
"Congratulations. You've recieved the True Law "Knowledge", the divine skills "Nigh-Omniscience(Widdom)", "Psychopomp" and "Intelligence Infinitum""
"Your "Nigh-Omniscience(Wisdom)+" has fused with your passive Nigh-Omniscience(Fate, Destiny, Boundary, Creation, Divinity, Fortune, Binary, Chaos)++ into the ???? Skill "Greater Nigh-Omniscient(Laws)"
"Your Divine Skill "Psychopomp" has stimulated your Soul to evolve under the blessing of the Supreme Powers into the True Law "Souls""
"You have recieved the divine skills "Formless Soul", "Ressurection" and "Domain: Zoneless""
"You your Reiki and Dei-Force have been Argumentated by your perfect clone. Your Physique has also been argumented"
"You have recieved World Essence from your clone, who is currently slowly devouring the dungeon. Your Divine Skill "World Will(Regional)" has evolved to "World Will(Continental)""
"...My recently born determination to grow stronger is slowly dying down. And if my misfortune and fortune are balanced out, why... am I only gaining fortune?"
Enigma frowned and carefully thought on it. Indeed, he ignored the recently added new skills and laws, this was a natural thing for him... you didn't know? Now you do.
He knew, that sooner or later, he will suffer the brunt of all his misfortune. That day might come today or tomorrow, you never know.
He shook his head and went to play with his daughter, Jade, the only thing that calms him down as off late. She was also a gem full of emotions. This always brightened his day.
He mostly liked the smile she has whenever he does anything for her. And literally, anything, there has never been a time, unless she went overboard, that he refused her of anything.
"Papa, Jade also wants to be a god too!!" She ran up to him and said with enthusiasm, her eyes sparkling with cuteness and determination. 'I wonder where she heard that word.'
He crouched down and gently rubbed her head, he gently said to her, "Don't worry, papa is a god, and as papa's baby girl, of course Jade will be a goddess."
"Really?!" She exclaimed in shock. Her cute eyes widening in surprise, bringing more amusement to Enigma. 'Really... if my misfortune is coming, then will I send her away or will I let her suffer with me?'
"Hm, really. Go there, and ask those people, they'll tell you." He pointed at a couple not far away, who were having a fun time conversing with each other.
'Will I really let my own daughter go through my trouble? I've also been ignorant and left Nia and the others without a proper goodbye. I wonder how they are doing as off late.'
Jade ran over in light strides, but each still covered a large distance at a short span of time. She reached the couple, and without even saying anything, they already knelt down before her and called her, "Your highness, our goddess."
'...I should really look out for my people, my family, as well as my friends. But, within a place like this, I'll need power. Power to have the right to want to protect my belongings.'
Jade was so happy she rushed back and threw herself into his embrace. "Papaaaaaaa!!!! They called me a goddess, they called me a goddess, kyaaaa~"
She buried her head into his chest in excitement. Her actions startled the couple and they hurriedly rushed over to kowtow to him, but he only smiled at them and sent them off.
'These people... though I recently met them, they seem to place their hopes of survival on me too much. And yet, here I am, avoiding everything just because of a tantrum.'
"...."
'Nothing will change. Whether I acknowledge my Bloodline or not, I'll still continue growing stronger. Ignoring everything will not let my so-called parents feel conflicted at all.'
'At the end of the day, I'll be the one losing everything, and them nothing. For I cannot die, they will make sure of that. They are strong enough to protect what they cherish, me, if the matter comes to it...' He paused, looking at the retreating couple's back.
'But... do I? Do I have the strength to protect my people? The strength to resolve all my troubles? The will to move on forward and have a say in this game called Reality?'
"Do I... really have what it takes... to protect my loved ones...?" He said the last thoughts out loud as he faced the sky. At this day, this night, Enigma was baptized by his own thoughts.
Maybe it was Intelligence Infinitum that made him suddenly sort out his mind, or something else. But at this day, he realized that he was still weak... too weak.
Maybe he had a lot of Skills, but he could barely use any of them. And his bloodline and physique were sealed, and constitution was nonexistent. Why was he trying to limit himself if he was already limited?
That was stupid and naive of him.
"Papa, Jade wants a toy like that too!!" She said, pointing her small hand towards one of the moons of Terra, the biggest of them all.
'Very naive. I can't even do that for you, dear.' Enigma bitterly smiled and answered, "Don't worry baby girl, father will one day give you the moon... no, maybe all of the moons within the universe as long as you wish it."
"Hm, I believe in papa." She said with a confident smile, resting her head on his shoulder. 'I know sweetheart. That's why, from today onwards, your father will move on forward, regardless of how easy and suspicious the path is.'
"Your perfect clone has cleared the dungeon of a God. He has absorbed vast amount of essence which is currently being projected to you"
"Your perfect clone has devoured the dungeon core, overwriting it's rule with the immense essence he absorbed"
"You have gained ownership of the dungeon... the system is now creating a personal dungeon template for you"
"...You owe me a lot, I wouldn't be suffering like this even if I was the Personal system of a hundred Main Protagonists!!!"
"...."

'I wonder, really...Since when has clearing a dungeon been to devour it? That guy is definitely abusing his power.' Enigma lamented with a bitter smile... right after stealing his resolve even.

Meanwhile, a domain where Reiki bloomed everywhere like the autumn springs, a place where nature took itself into consideration, and beautified itself beyond disbelief.
A land containing verdant forests, where each leaf was a shade of green, lighter or darker than the other. A forest where the leaves shone with starlight glitter.
A place where the countless springs were a shade of blue, one different from the other; navy blue springs of night, sapphire blue springs of health, clear blue springs of daylight, and various other kinds of blue springs.
And within such a domain, a single being sat at the center of everything, watching as countless people enjoyed themselves. Countless cities containing millions of people each, various tribes of nature loving races.
"How beautiful." The being spoke, being a giant made out of sand. Its figure so vast, it had forests, juggles, plains, wetlands and other natural features of a world incorporated into it.
A being resemblant to a living planet, a being capable of being the personification of one!!
Such a being thought, smiling in content. It's been hundreds of thousands of years since it was born, and hundreds of thousands of years since it watched over this Realm.
A sub realm created by the Creator Goddess of Terra, a sub realm hidden within the folds of Terra's space, yet not one bit lesser in authority than the lower realms like Hell or Heaven.
And while it was situated at the center of this realm, it was not the highest power, nor was it close to that. For, there were other countless Gods, and each, of varying levels of power too.
Yet for now, it would be the main character of the day, because it felt its authority within one of the countless Realms outside, be stripped away from it. "How... strange."
It thought, it's thoughts traveling out to the soroundings as Divine prominence, yet there was no one to bask within it. "Another child... has taken a portion of my authority away from me... again."
Yet it was not bothered. It did not even bother to verify which realm it was that it's dungeon was stolen, nor did it verify who the thief was who stole it.
After all, the Infinite Realms were not considered the greatest product of the Era of Infinity for nothing. For there were Infinite Universes, Infinite living beings, Infinite Realities, Infinite Possibilities and most importantly... Infinite Realms.
"But unfortunately... such an Era is coming to an end. And that makes one wonder, what kind of Era would be opened up this time? And what kind of genius would open it up?" It smiled even brighter, going to slumber once more.
The rest, can happen as nature sees fit. Reality can progress however nature wants it to be. And if that means it's authority would be snatched every single time, "Then, I shall let nature... take its course."
