Chapter 2100

In a way, digesting all that negative emotion was extremely difficult for Randidly. The process put a great deal of strain on Randidly’s still wild emotional force. Even with the energy he had absorbed from self-pity, it took more than Randidly had to cope with the sudden surge of envy through his body.

All the emotions he had avoided digging into for so long came roaring back.

He had grown up wishing for more than he had. All of those feelings, empowered by the mirrored emotions from those within the Alpha Cosmos, truly grew into a threatening storm of negativity.

But once he understood it was his already, the emotional force wasn’t antagonistic, he could relax and simply let the currents within him gradually align this newly acknowledged energy. It wasn’t an invasion, but the way he was. He could simply remain and weather the destructive explosion. No matter what happened, all that clashing emotional force was his.

He woke up back in his storeroom after several hours. Tremors rocked his body, from pockets of pent-up emotion bubbling to the surface. Randidly pressed his eyes shut and tried to focus on his breathing. He squeezed tears out of his eyes, unsure for whom they were even shed.

I did hate her. If she is alive... I still do. He leaned forward and pressed his fists into the ground. I think the truth is... neither of my parents were ready to be parents. They were just people with a kid.

Acri cooed at his waist, consoling him and telling Randidly it didn’t betray him. He forced a smile on his face and stroked the spear’s head with his thumb. “Don’t worry buddy, it’s fine. I get it. Those parts of me were me too.”

He took another hour to gather himself up and confirm he wouldn’t just start trembling randomly. At this point, his emotional affect had grown into a massive sea of violence. The Grey Creature could no longer squeeze him with emotional turmoil because it was almost constantly having to refine all this emotional force and return it to a cohesive whole.

Still, he acknowledged that his precarious stoicism might collapse if one of the land walruses rolled onto its back and made a heartwarming face at him.

The small smile from that thought didn’t last long. If anything, it just made him more aware of a brewing headache. Randidly huffed out a breath and then pressed his lips together. He wasn’t sure if it was the next emotional core reaching out and influencing him, Rage, or whether he was just tired and irritated after the surprise emotional uprising. To calm himself down, he got up and walked around the farm.Thê source of this content n/o/v/(el)bi((n))

As he was making his rounds by the land walrus paddock, thankfully devoid of anything but the smell of walrus shit, Demetrius walked up next to him. “Have you recovered, Nether King Hungry Eye?”

Randidly twitched from the name, but released a sigh. “Yes, I’m better. Anything happen while I was busy?”

Randidly pressed his lips together. An increase in efficacy for the energy? Really?

The two are synergistic when coming from the same source, Neveah confirmed. More than even I would have expected. It helps that you function as a processing plant for both before releasing everything into the atmosphere.

...so a Path to check how feasible it would be to unite my two energies, Randidly mused he looked at his Path screen and grimaced. A Path that costs twenty thousand PP. And what, is it supposed to transform me into a genuine Shallah? Wouldn’t that be what I would become if both energies were unified?

You wouldn’t be a Shallah, Neveah responded immediately. For the same reason that Pine was falling to pieces until Elhume and Yystrix created the Nexus to delay his decay. Shallah would be perfect. Maybe it would be more like an older model of engine just running with the newest fuel. Higher efficiency, but not a cataclysmic change of life force. Besides, you can afford the PP cost. You aren’t saving up for anything in particular.

Randidly reached up and rubbed at his face. Using advanced fuel in an engine can sometimes burn it out.

Which is why we test it with a single Path. Neveah’s mental tone grew abruptly grave. Look Randidly, I’ve been doing some thinking. I know you haven’t encountered anyone truly powerful within those memories of the Second Cohort... but that doesn’t mean they don’t exist. And think about this: Elhume’s body has been trapped in crystallized energy. Yet he still maintains a stranglehold on the Nexus, thousand of years later. If you encounter him there, that will be him in his most preliminary, and from what we know about how the Nexus later develops, pure-hearted form.

While Randidly mulled that over, Neveah continued to send her thoughts. To defeat the monster that has persisted to today, who slaughters dissension and hides the Path to the Pinnacle, we are going to need something singular. A way to combine the energies might be exactly that.

Randidly grimaced, but couldn’t disagree with what she was saying. He had seen what Elhume had built while climbing through the Sonara. He was now pushing through the secret upper layer, a dream Elhume had about how the world could have been different. None of it was raw power, but he couldn’t deny it proved Elhume’s capability.

“So, just one Path,” Randidly sighed out loud to himself before sending his thoughts back to Neveah. It does cost twenty thousand PP. Does it least give out some good rewards?

Do you even need more Stats, Neveah laughed at him. Besides, you have quite a bit of PP just laying around- wait, what’s this secret thought I sense you trying to squirrel away. Did you really intend to launch yourself through a series of Farming related Paths.

Randidly licked his lips. Well, I don’t like your tone when you think that. But right now this farm is the foundation within the memory; establishing influence in Malloon-

Justify it however you want. By now, Neveah was mentally cackling. I’m just glad you’ve finally stopped to do something that makes you happy. Have fun, Randidly.

Grumbling to himself, Randidly opened up the Path screen and began to pour PP into this new Energy Harmonization I Path.
