Chapter 20: A Strange Request.
Zeras stood there dazed a little by the notification. He suddenly felt his transformation resetting back to his normal figure, against his control as a young man with raven dark hair and deep blue eyes could be seen once again.
"The Energy points used is too much." He said. It wasn't even up to 3 minutes and he already ran out of energy.
But he had a way of solving this energy problem and that was either through improving his Cultivation stages or using Chaos Devouring to gain energy points.
His eyes knitted together as he felt himself stronger than before and the system seemed to have new attributes.
"System Interface" Zeras called out.

He was also extremely grateful for the books the man gave to hjm as they were the manual he used to awaken, while also learning about the EIA.
"Thank you." He said bowing to him, before taking his seat.
"It seems you've finally broke through your Mana core and even managed to reach the Early Star rank stage all on your own and without external help.
Then the Mana reservoir wasn't wasted then." Commander Shiron muttered to himself as he stared approvingly at Zeras.
Normally, when the young ones undergo their awakening at the age of 16, they will be helped by an elder who will slowly pass their own Mana into them to avoid mistakes and being overloaded with too much Mana.
But not only did Zeras managed to break open his Mana core all alone, he also managed to use the Mana reservoir to breakthrough the First Star rank stage.
A very good accomplishment.
"Walk with me." The man said as he stood up and moved out of the place with his hand placed together behind him.
Zeras followed closely behind as they both went on a stroll on the spaceship before arriving above it.
Zeras stood on the spaceship, reeling in his shock as he felt the dark expanse of space around the him.
The stars he saw were just a long beam of light as the ship moved pass them with speed making him unable to see their figure before passing.
The area was like the tip of the spaceship but there was a blue barrier around it, which enabled their being able to stand on the spaceship without getting affected by gravity and also being able to avoid getting crushed by the pressure of space.
"What do you think of the vast expanse of Space..." Commander Shiron asked suddenly as Zeras noticed a fulfilled smile on the man's face.
"It's beautiful..." Zeras answered honestly. Space was really beautiful, with the beautiful illumination by stars and the peaceful darkness.
"Yet, it's a place of darkness and Chaos. A place with no particular depth or limit. An unending circle..." Commander Shiron said to Zeras, his smile still on his face but he could feel they were concealing something, something painful.
The area around the place was quiet, with the duo just admiring the views.
"I have a request for you. You can consider that as a payback for the help I offered you..." Commander Shiron said to Zeras.
"What is it, sir"
"Help me protect Gaia..."
