"Senior, isn't this the same as the systems in those books?" Loita asked.
"Yeah," Novaah replied.
"Wait... you didn't tell me about this."
"..."
"If the chosen one finds out about me, I'll cut it off."
"But he might be a supreme origin embodiment."
"I don't care," Novaah said with a shrug.
"..."
"No one can replace you," he added with a smirk.
"Okay, okay," Loita said, acknowledging his point.
"System, show the interface."
Ding!
Status
Name....Species....Gender....Bloodline.....Body.....Cultivation Method.....
"Enough."
"Loita, I've given all my energy to this."
"Senior, will you be alright?"
"My soul is eternal."
"But... without your qi, mana, and origin, you'll enter eternal sleep."
"No buts. I've created a fake origin. I won't enter eternal sleep," Novaah reassured her.
"Okay."
"System, take care of Loita. Rules are a must."
"Loita, I've created a dual cultivation technique. You might use it with the chosen one. It cultivates both soul, body, and bloodline, benefiting both the chosen one and your soul. Enjoy it... I'm waiting to see your descendants."
"No... that won't happen. I know what you're thinking, but I won't change my mind. Plus, I'll use it with you. Won't I benefit more?"
"You win," Novaah conceded.
He then took out many primordial herb seeds, ranging from chaos tier to prime eternal tier, and various materials of the same tiers.
"Loita, let them use these materials after reaching divine rank. I've also included useful prime rank alchemy, blacksmithing, runes, and array techniques."
"Senior... may I ask you a question?"
"Mmmh, yes."
"I... I..."
"Just speak your mind. When have you ever hesitated?"
"Is something bad about to happen?"
"Why?"
"Because your preparations worry me."
"..."
"Senior... is it that bad?"
"Mmmh," Novaah said, looking into the distance with a sigh. "How long?"
"Ten chaos circles..."
"Another great annihilation?"
"But we still have some prime beings."
"Others won't help; they might hide or join the enemy camp. Lafila Creation is dead. She exploded herself to save others and chaos. Chronos Time is also dead, the same as Lafila."
"But prime beings can't die, right?"
"We are supposed to enter eternal sleep and wake up when chaos is in danger. But now they know how to devour our eternal souls to evolve into semi-prime or even prime. Also, chaotic prime beings are involved."
"What?"
"Similar to your clan."
"Wait, enemies have entered our chaos?"
"Yes."
"Ahhh! This is tough."
"Senior... can we wipe them out?"
"I can... but I won't."
"Why?"
"Because it's a trap."
"What? How? Why?"
"Secret. You only need to know they want my void (nothingness) origin."
"Damn it, I will wipe them out one day."
"...."
Novaah then sent all the materials and techniques. He took out a crest.
"What! How... how do you have that crest? The Eternal Crest!"
"You know a lot..."
"Eternal Crest belongs to the embodiment of creation and time. Grandma always talked about them. They were a couple."
"No, Chronos and Lafila were enemies. They were twin sisters from the Blight family, who often fought and changed their surnames. But there was a time when they lost a bet to me, and I merged their realms into the Eternal Goddess Garden realm. It was one of the purest and most beautiful realms in chaos, where anything could be grown."
"But Chronos was male."
"Nope. She was a flat-chested cross-dresser."
"What! How did you know?"
"They were like you, insisting on marrying me but were more troublesome."
"Now I understand. I thought it was weird why you never killed me for being stubborn." Novaah looked at her, thinking inwardly, You don't understand, but I won't tell you the truth.
"Good. You understand. Now you can start your family out there."
"In your dreams," Loita said with a smirk.
"Still not giving up," Novaah teased.
Snort.
He started merging the two Fey and Eternal Crests. He took out two crystals with transparent heads and gently stroked them while looking at the soul fragments.
"I can't reform you now. You'll just give me a headache."
"Loita, take care of these soul fragments. The chosen one will reform them, and they might marry him and have a good life."
"You are as cruel as ever," Loita snorted.
The crystals were absorbed into a green light.
"You're all better off without me."
"I will lead them to look for you."
"..." Loita said with a sad expression.
"Loita, listen carefully. I want you, together with the system, to go and look for the chosen one."
"Mmmh."
"Also, teach the chosen one well. I prefer if you choose a male, so you can start a family, but it doesn't matter who you choose as long as the conditions are met."
"Okay, but I won't start a family without you."
"What a stubborn girl. You might get along well with Chronos and Lafila."
"Now, no matter what happens, you have to escape and look for the chosen one."
"I will, as long as you are fine."
"Promise me."
"I won't," Loita said with a mischievous smile.
"Ahhh... why are they always so stubborn?"
"System, do as I command."
(Yes, master.)
"If you let anything happen to senior, I will erase you."
(*...)
"The System, you will be the Supreme Primordial System, and its consciousness will be named Luna Chaos."
"After the chosen one reaches godhood, you can use the body I created for you—it's a Chaotic Prime Primordial Moon Body."
"Chronos Time and Lafila Creation will have Chaotic Prime Primordial Time Body and Chaotic Prime Primordial Creation Body."
"Loita Fay, once the locks are lifted, you will have a Chaotic Prime Primordial Nature Body. Those bodies are stronger than the current prime being bodies, so ensure you're not exposed until you're strong enough to protect yourself."
"The chosen one can reform their body to a Chaotic Prime Primordial Genesis Body, the best body for Supreme Origin Embodiment, but it's very hard to cultivate and painful to reform. No creature below primordial rank can withstand the pain without their souls crumbling to nothing. Alternatively, they can reform to a Chaotic Prime Primordial Void Body, which is inferior to the Genesis Body but greater than the Prime Primordial Void Body."
"His or her spouse can also reform their bodies to prime being levels."
"Senior, why don't you just use it on yourself?"
"I'm bored."
"What!"
"Yeah. I need to sleep and don't have time."
"No wonder they call you sloth. But it's still hard to hold your prestige. What a waste of effort!"
...
"You can go now."
(Yes, master.)
And with a blue flash, Luna and Loita vanished.
("Luna, why are we in a hurry?")
(But master told us to go look for the chosen one.)
("Luna... oh dear Luna, senior didn't forbid us from starting here, right? Or is it that you want to show that you can use senior's surname, Chaos...")
(...)
("Cat got your tongue?")
(Loita, you're just jealous...)
("...") Loita's face turned red in anger. If she wasn't locked in the system, she might have choked Luna.
Blue light hovered above a pitch-black mansion, which mortals couldn't face directly without losing their souls.
("Luna, what's going on?")
Ding!
(I've scanned the entire mansion, but you won't believe it.)
"What?"
(The space is sealed by a mysterious force.)
("Senior knows about this. Luna, let's go back.")
(No, I promised master to leave as soon as possible.)
"Oh, little Luna seems not to understand what I meant. Luna, if we're looking for the chosen one, where better to start than here?"
(But master told us to go out and look.)
("Luna, where are we?")
(Above master's mansion.)
("Can master sense us?")
(No. Being below Chaotic Prime, no one can feel our presence.)
"Good. Then let's look for the chosen one."
(Yes.)
Luna cheerfully accepted.
(Where do we start?)
("Look at all the beings around senior's mansion. One might be the chosen one.")
(...o..ok.) Luna was unsure of what to do.
"Master, the meal is ready," Durken called out.
Novaah looked at the meal for a while before going back to sleep. Above them was a suspended small pyramid concealed from their view and cut off from the world. Inside, Luna and Loita could see and hear everything, but others couldn't see or hear them.
Durken took out something and sprayed it across the room. The act gave Loita a bad feeling. Before she could say anything, she heard a grunt.
"Master, are you alright?"
"Am... it's just that I feel a little weak."
"What happened, master? Why didn't you tell me? How can I help?"
"No need to worry. I had Loita help out..."
"So that's it..." Durken looked around.
"Master, I can't find her."
"I locked her in the system and sent it away."
"What? How? Why?"
"Is there a problem?"
"Nope. It's just that I wanted to woo the princess," Durken answered, embarrassed.
While Loita had a dark expression, she thought, (You've got to be kidding me.)
(... Princess... you don't look like one.)
("Of course. I'm the princess of the Fay and also senior made me the princess of the Void Realm. How do you think I was able to sneak into senior's room?")
"Oh, then you're late."
Novaah reached and took a roasted leg of the Devourer Pig. As he ate, he started feeling weaker.
"It seems I used too much energy, and the fake origin can't support my body. Little did I know how wrong I was. Maybe Loita was right; the fake origin can't replace my origin. Ahhh, this is a little too much. I'll deal with it after my nap."
"Why... why... why..."
"Something is not right."
"Durken, are you feeling alright?"
"Yes, master. Is something bothering you?"
"Maybe I'm overthinking. Let me have a nap."
(Loita, what's wrong with Master?)
("I think it has something to do with Durken. I remember he sprayed something in the room.")
.....
Durken stood in front of a mirror.
"Ancestor, I've sprayed it in the room."
"Good. We will be there in no time before he recovers."
Durken looked up with determination and said, "Sorry, master. I also want to be strong and become a prime being, so I can go to the Chaos Cosmic Starry. I want to see the Great Annihilation battlefield grounds and have an opportunity. So, just be my steppingstone."
