Chapter 133 - The Infinite Ocean And The World Tree.

Which brought him to the scene where the emperor was standing in front of the bathroom mirror looking at the mark on his inner thigh, before receiving robot servants to help him get dressed for the morning court.

Ade woke up alone in bed and didn't see Emery anywhere, which worried him. However, the not-so-gentle reminder of Juma Berta on his wrist communicator gave him no choice but to prepare for a short breakfast and rush to the court meeting.

Apparently, a bombshell was about to explode in the morning, Gyasi and the military would bring him news that would make the Diablo Empire shudder.

On the other hand, Emery was in the garden in front of the naked statues, he was sitting at a table with a sumptuous breakfast. The robots employed were standing beside the table, there were three robots with beautiful appearance and almost similar to real living beings.

"I need eyes and ears in the palace... If I put a spirit on these robots will the palace system detect it?" Emery thought sipping some coffee with some milk. He didn't think he would like something so sweet with a slightly bitter taste at the end, he thought he wasn't a person who could like sweets, but the food in this world was very delicious.

Emery thinks for a moment that if I used spirits to fill the robots' bodies, the palace system could detect the anomaly. For Emery to create life was complicated, even though he was a titan, he had the gift to evolve lives, mature life, or destroy a life, but he didn't have the gift to create a life.

At least not him alone, the creation of life always depended on two individuals, the gods also did not have this individual power, even so, it all depended on whether they could get souls for it. The souls were not their creations, they exist and roam around and are captured by having the opportunity to reincarnate, what the gods do is create this vessel for a soul to inhabit.

So, Emery's concern was to build a suitable receptacle for the spirits and then place them inside robots or another inanimate being, thus giving "life" to these non-living beings.

"However, it's not like I could call any god from this pantheon to help me..."

Emery thought with dismay, he held three small pale blue spheres like a precious jewel, these were incomplete spirits he had captured in the Infinite Ocean.

The diverse worlds and dimensions are separated by a great Sea of ​​Stars that empties into the Infinite Ocean, as Emery had to pass through a Sea of ​​Stars from the East to reach this new universe, following in the wake of his father Uranus' powers, he ended up reaching the Infinite Ocean.

In the Infinite Ocean, there are many treasures and dangers, but mainly there are great truths about the existence of various worlds and there is the birth of all cosmic life. From the souls of mortals, even the gods and titans were born from this infinite entity.

The Infinite Ocean is also known as the Universal Intelligence and creator of all things in the universe, from the tiny grain of sand to the mightiest of titans – Kronos himself – however, even a titan like Emery was unable to communicate. with the powerful awareness of such a mysterious being.

In short, life arose from this Infinite Ocean and then will be launched to reincarnate in different worlds, at least that's what Emery understood when finding such a wonder before his eyes.

However, several doubts arose for Emery, such as after death where would the souls go, would they remain in what would be called heaven, hell, or the purgatory of that world to which they were cast? Or would they go back to the great Infinite Ocean?

And then, if the soul transcended reaching a high status or even what is called divinity, where would these souls go?

Kronos only lingered on these thoughts for a few years, as if he continued he would go mad not knowing the answers. However, curious as he was, he ended up picking up some pearls that seemed to fall from the Infinite Ocean, among these pearls were three incomplete spirits.

Emery initially thought someone would come looking for these spirits, but no one appeared to claim them, so he left that mysterious place that left him uneasy for years to come.

Of course, Emery didn't have the pure eyes to see that there wasn't just an Infinite Ocean, but there was a world all around that place, but his eyes were corrupted by revenge and pain if he was in his most enlightened state, he would have seen everything most beautiful there and many of the mysteries of the universe would be found by him.

Even his loved one who died in the last world would be there to welcome him with affection, but Emery's journey would still belong across the many worlds so that he could purify himself and return to the Infinite Ocean.

Returning to Emery who held the three incomplete spirits in sphere form, he was tempted to put the spirits into the robots, but without the proper receptacle to protect the spirits two things would happen simultaneously, the spirits would disappear and the palace system could detect the anomaly. 

Neither option was good, after all in an Emery he would lose these treasures and in the other option, the system would identify him as guilty of such anomaly, which would result in perhaps another trip to prison.

He finished his breakfast and looked around, he was still thinking about how to go about getting more information from the emperor's palace. The employees who worked at the palace were divided into robots and Diablos zergs.

The proportion of robots increased and some employees were relocated to work outside the emperor's palace or fired after the Emery prison disaster, but there were still more Diablos zergs than robots in the emperor's palace.

Then Emery looked at the great trunk of the World Tree and had an extravagant idea. He approached the log only to see that there was some sort of invisible barrier running through every inch of the ebony log that was as dark as the onyx stones.

"Just a little work" Emery thought as he touched the barrier and used his power to manipulate time and space. His hand went through the barrier as easily as a sword through soft tofu.

Emery's delicate fingers touched the slightly roughened wood and surprisingly warm, he felt the tree's energy pulse. He sent some of his own power to the tree.

"Who are you?"

A soft voice sounded in Emery's mind, he wasn't surprised, you'd think the World Tree had a conscience.

Emery introduced himself briefly, of course omitting a bit of information here and there, but the tree remained silent for a while. He also shared some of his current problems, as a being of benevolence and wisdom, Emery hoped that the tree's soul could at least empathize with his plight and help him in some way.

"Child of dragons, I cannot help you directly without appearing to be taking your side, which would create more problems for you. However, I can say that if you use my seeds as a vase for these incomplete spirits that you came across by chance... Although we both know it wasn't like that... Anyway, if you use my seed for this and put on these lifeless machines the system won't notice the change, as it will identify these machines as being part of me"

The tree soul said showing its keen judgment, but also showing that it wouldn't ask where Emery got these incomplete spirits from. Which made Emery wonder if World Tree already knew where these spirits came from or if she just didn't want to get involved with mundane problems.

"Where are your seeds?" Emery asked curiously. He imagined that the seeds of the World Tree were gigantic and should be seen with the naked eye, but he hadn't seen any of this on the ground or in the garden.

"Little dragon, my fruits are too big. I produce a fruit every ten years, but each fruit is a great disaster. The little ones pick it up carefully and take it to the laboratory to extract the juice, nothing is wasted and the seeds are kept in the imperial treasure, sometimes being used as an offering to our great goddess Ashia"

The World Tree knew everything that was going on across the planet, as it was the central World Tree and its roots were deep, but this made her mind wear out faster, which led to her having long periods of sleep.

She was just waking up right now because it was almost time for her to produce her fruits, which made her vitality much higher than normal. It would take one to two years for the fruit to be produced.

Most of the seeds are in imperial treasure and a few in the laboratory for studies, but there weren't enough resources to cultivate more World Trees, since if they did, there wouldn't be enough resources for the planet to sustain itself. Therefore, the seeds were only saved or used as a sacrifice to the goddess Ashia.

"Thanks for the info" Emery said as he said goodbye to the World Tree. He looked at the time and guessed that Ade was still in the palace.

He hadn't forgotten the promises he'd made the night and the night before.
