In the garden on the lone Castle in the Blue Plains Realm, the Imperial Adjudicator had come in front of Noah the moment he observed the genius to have woken up.
With the heart of a Ruler and his authority, he relayed the news of Noah gaining the title of an Imperial Ruler- something that only those at the Realm of QUASAR could hold!
To him, it was only natural as the genius that even Anastasia was shocked by could already kill beings at the QUASAR Realm, so granting him a title such as this was extremely befitting.
Noah had taken the news calmly as he expressed his thanks to the Adjudicator, knowing his advancement of the Protagonist Trait was in part due to this as he could now play a larger role in the Nexus Galaxy.
The position came with many benefits, granting him his own castle under the name of Dannicus in the Imperial Citadel and even granting him the possible position of overseeing another Galaxy as the Imperial Adjudicator mentioned he could work with the Stellar Ruler to look over the Stellar Sky Galaxy!
Such a thing was wanted by many Imperials, but Noah brushed it off for now as he said he did not have talent with such a thing, and would focus on increasing his strength for now.
Anastasia agreed with this as she spoke towards the two men, her eyes shining as she saw Alexei hand Noah a Medallion that represented an authority of an Imperial Ruler.
"Take some time to solidify your understanding in the Dao of Summoning as well as becoming familiar to your pet. I'll keep watch over Anna for now, and we will discuss the enemy in the Burning Domains Galaxy in a few days when we collect more information."
Agreeing with this thought process and wanting time to himself to truly explore his many gains, Noah glanced at the domineering Three-Legged Fate Crow that blazed with the essence of fate and flames behind him as he felt the connection with this creature and uttered out.
"Return."
RUMBLE
A unique light went on to cover the Crow as Noah mystically observed a rift opening up on his chest, the same thing he observed on the Imperial Adjudicator when he recalled the Aurora Galaxy Dragon!
This rift was something unique to Animus Pets, leading them to the Origin Space of their Master as they would reside in here until called out for battle.
When one grew powerful enough, they would have multiple powerful Animus Pets within their Origin that they could call forth instantly to obliterate their enemies!
The 20 meter tall glimmering Crow grew small as it turned into a streak of light and was pulled into his Origin.
"Then I will see your Esteemed selves in a bit. Thank you again for your guidance!"
He gave thanks to the two beings in front of him, Anastasia nodding towards him with good will as he nodded his head and teleported away!
He wasn't worried about showing such a skill at this moment as it would seem something small compared to what he had shown them he could do in the past few hours.
He appeared back in the Brightgold Monarchy Realm among the glistening vegetation filled with essence in the periphery of mountains, his thoughts moving rapidly as in front of him, one of the clones he left in the Starry Sky Galaxy appeared, while the main body of Alexander disappeared!
He had made a quick switch as his main body made a huge leap from one Galaxy to another, wanting privacy in the Stellar Sky Galaxy as the clone that had just switched with him in the Brightgold Monarchy Realm would head towards the newly gained fortress for an Imperial Ruler in the Imperial Citadel.

In the Stellar Sky Galaxy, Noah scoured the space he teleported into as he looked for an uninhabited star, finding a planet filled with deadly elemental storms of the surface as he delved deep into it and hid himself while casting an enormous Blood World.
He finally found time to himself as he prepared to fully digest his gains, starting with the summoning of the last pet that the body of Alexander could summon at the Realm of Black Hole!
Before he did this, he called forth his Three-Legged Fate Crow as a swirl appeared on his chest, the majestic fiery gold creature coming out.
"When I first summoned you, what made you answer my call?"
His eyes shone as he asked the golden flaming Crow, trying to pry off some secrets before he tried once more.
"I was lazily moving about when I saw a blinding Summoning Rift appear, its size being multiple times larger than many that I had seen before! We Animus strive to find a perfect pair to complete us, so we always look for the strongest summoner out there. We can measure this by the size of the Summoning Rift!"
A shocking truth came to him as he nodded, the Three-Legged Fate Crow continuing.
"Truly powerful Animus as the Ultra Rare and Prismatic Rank like me are kings on our own right in our home, so we don't even bother answering the calls of Summoning Rifts when they randomly appear. Only those at lesser ranks try their luck. But when we see an enormous Summoning Rift, it normally means the Summoner is extremely proficient in the Dao of Summoning or they have a high Realm that allows them to use immense essence to call upon us, so some of us answer!"
RUMBLE!
Noah could feel as if a grand path was opening itself up in front of him, his shining eyes catching on to a singular truth that would be of great help to any Summoner.
Aside from the random luck of where his Summoning Rift opened in the Animus Universe and which Animus Pet would answer the call, one could increase their chances if they were extremely proficient in the Dao of Summoning or had immense mana!
He didn't have the former, but the latter...he had already the mana on the world.
"Good!" He nodded with appreciation towards the Three-Legged Fate Crow as this Animus Summon felt essence bubble forth from its Master, the skill of <<Archaic Animus Summoning>> being utilized yet again!
But this time, Noah did not just stop at the required amount of mana to activate the skill...he continued to senselessly pump in more and more mana into the ability as the runic circle and rift appearing in the skies of the hidden planet he was on got wider and wider.
In the first 10 seconds, its width already exceeded the width that was there when he called forth the Three-Legged Fate Crow, and it only continued to expand!
Pump! Pump! Pump!
"Master, you…"
The Three-Legged Fate Crow had Fate flames leaping out of its beak as it breathed hard, its origin trembling at the sight of the widening rift as it began sensing an Archaic aura on the other side.
For the Three-Legged Fate Crow to have its origin tremble from an Archaic aura even though it held the bloodline of the Archaic Golden Crow...it meant that something terrifying had picked up on the Summoning Rift, something with an even rare and more Archaic bloodline than itself!
Ah!
