Chapter 220: Settling In The City (5), Visit & Tragedy
Aleron sat atop a tree's branch.
'Thank you for coming after me,' Aleron said as he looked at four souls in his sea of consciousness.
'I will be using your territory and the stash of chaos coins you've hidden. It was nice to put a stash since even if a couple of your group dies, the remaining can use it.'
'But foolishly, you've all come after me.'
'Thank you. And I will also be using your soul to try and create something that will aid me in my endeavors.'
'So, thank you again.'
[Gachapi: The new version is ready, Master.]
[Astral: Woohoo, let's see what kind of monster Mastah creates this time! Unlimited Cooking Works!]
[Gachapi: Calm the fuck down! You're already months old now.]
'Alright, kids. Let's start,' Aleron grinned.
The four souls appeared in perfect appearance as their physical counterparts floated before Aleron.
'I've gathered tons of knowledge of body path, and I've used Geno Mods and infused them in a product made using Genome Pulse and Vigor Force. The structure I envisioned, traced, and constructed is perfect.'
'And lastly, I added Chakra energy to make resonance with their power source. Chakra energy is the most powerful anchor to create new vessels of their source power.'
[Astral: Eh? Do you plan to wipe out their memories?]
[Gachapi: Duh, we have to kill their active consciousness, which will erase their memories and everything. A clean slate for the new Genome structure filled with newborn information. We are going to see a mutation evolution of a natural soul aided by a self-created genome structure with selected geno mods to construct their new body with a seamless connection to their source.]
A dreamy bubble formed around Aleron as he used a Mystic Skill to isolate himself from the space outside.
The four souls floated a meter away from him.
His eyes glinted with a colorful hue as he pointed his finger ahead. The tip of his finger lit up with a creamy glowing blue and red color bearing purple and black sparks.
The tip released that same cream in fluid motion and form as it infused within the four souls simultaneously.
After a few minutes, four colorful cocoons formed after the process, each one the size of two meters long and a meter wide, like an egg.
'Lastly, the brand of the owner,' Aleron drilled a tiny hole in his thumb using a bit of Magilore.
He consumed his Bloodline Essence and formed a symbol of ownership before branding it to their soul within the cocoons.
'It's happening,' Aleron's eyes gleamed as he looked at the four cocoons.
[Gachapi: Their bodies and new foundations are being constructed...I wonder about the result, haha. It's going to be awesome.]
'Yep. But this will take a few days at least,' Aleron wryly smiled and waved his hand, putting the cocoon in a separate spatial storage with a spatial layer connection to Chaosverse so that the time would continue to flow normally within the storage.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
'Now then, I also want to summon something. The maximum I will get is a Transcendent powerhouse if I summon, and to get a natural banner, we have to make a move,' Aleron stood up and removed the isolation bubble around him.
[Astral: Mastah, are you planning to touch a Chaotic Beast to get it's banner?]
[Gachapi: That's the plan, but Master, before we do that, how about contacting Cosmos Will Rexian and getting the juicy pure soul essence from our Hell that he is handling?]
Aleron's eyes shone. 'There must be a huge amount of pure soul essence by now!'
[Gachapi: That's true, but don't keep your hope high, Master. There's a massive qualitative difference between a Paragon-rank lifeform's soul quality and an Ascension-rank lifeform's soul quality.]
'Gotcha.'
No normal powerhouses of Paragon rank could attain this much progress unless they also befriended a Cosmos Will enough to make it act like this.
It was a massive purge in the multiple universes under this Cosmos as all black and red marks were now in a massive hell constructed by Cosmos Will Rexian and designed by Aleron!
But there was no time to be lost in this glee.
Aleron quickly sealed his powers, becoming a peak-stage Ascension-rank powerhouse.
Without further ado, he created a portal to Radrata Cosmos and entered.
'W-What the hell?' Aleron was shocked!
[Astral: Why are there such scary holes here?]
Gachapi gulped, even his avatar appeared outside, which he rarely did.
Gachapi's expression was bewildered at first, but then it gradually turned somber and then
dark.
"Master...this cosmos is dead, all universe within are sucked and destroyed," Gachapi said, his big eyes glinting darkly. "There's not an ounce of Genesis energy or a speck of life present
except for their residual prints, which created these holes."
"It seems that this event just happened recently."
The vast expanse of blackness had giant holes colored white and gray with black in their
centers, still and silent.
There was no intact planet or glowing star.
Aleron felt true emptiness looking at this expanse of space.
[Astral: What will happen now? Does this mean everyone in this cosmos is dead?]
"Wait..." Gachpi frowned as he sensed something. "Master, release a bit of your soul
presence."
"Alright," Aleron nodded and did as told.
A second later, he suddenly received something in his mind after a flicker of light that briefly appeared before vanishing.
That something was fleeting but firm, and it just released a voice in his head.
A familiar voice.
"Hi, friend. Trouble has brewed here, and as you are witnessing now, a tragedy has fallen
upon my world and its inhabitants."
"I only had this much to leave before my demise, so heed my words. Something sinister is brewing in the Upper Cosmos realm. Power was used on us, a device of extraordinary capabilities. It sucked the entirety of my Genesis energy and sucked the essence of life out of everything and everyone."
"I was enslaved forcefully, and this happened immediately after that. I only regained my consciousness for a bit before losing it all. In that brief time, I could only send some selected warriors to the Chaosverse before losing it all."
Cane said as his voice expressed anguish despite trying to mask it and as he smiled, one could
see it filled with sorrow.
"I hope you can meet with them and guide them...and perhaps even thwart the sinister plot
brewing above. I sensed something extraordinary in you, and I wanted to aid you, but alas, I have ceased to exist now."
"I wish, and I hope you succeed in your endeavors, Aleron. Our meeting was brief, but your impression is eternal. May your hand be the one that becomes the umbrella of our existence."
