Chapter 1317 Upgrading The Realm Core Abilities

  —–

The Supreme God of Star Ocean noticed that something happened within his domain, the Astral Road. He looked into it with contempt. It felt as if an alien force suddenly snatched a small part of it, the authority he had over this small part was completely lost and replaced by the authority of somebody else… that he didn’t knew about originally.

He looked into the vast exterior of his domain, as he looked across the stars, realms, and more, infusing his intent into it and trying to find who did it, and who was the one that had tried to take over his precious domain.

Aura seemed restless this time, out of nowhere as he relaxed while slowly preparing and waiting for Kireina to act against Hel, somebody had suddenly decided to take over his domain… this had not happened in all of his years since he came into existence!

What he saw was something he could barely believe, who could have enough authority over the elements he governed to be capable to rival his own power and be able to take over a small part of his domain, the Astral Road?

It was completely unthinkable of! There wasn’t any way that someone else other than him, as the Supreme God of Star Ocean, could govern over his personal ocean of stars which he used to fill the void of this self-contained spatial bubble where Genesis was located.

However, he suddenly realized it!

”What? Kireina?”

He looked into the Realm of Vida and saw Kireina’s powers spreading around his domain and taking over a small part of it, and then stopping.

”So it was her! Is that her… realm core thingy? The one that give us so many benefits? I guess it is fair but… is this thing going to swallow my entire astral road? Huh…” muttered the Supreme God.

He quickly decided to ask Kireina personally about his, arming himself with courage.

[You have exchanged 50.000.000.000 Divine Points (Rank 5: Supreme Goddess Realm)!]

[The Realm Core is being enhanced!]

[The Realm Core has Ranked Up from Rank 2 to Rank 3!]

[The Realm Core quality and more had been greatly empowered!]

[The Realm Core has acquired new capabilities; the power of the Realm Core increases!]

FLAAAASH!

I looked into the Realm Core, it had completely changed by now and it was overflowing with wondrous new powers! It left me quite fascinated to be honest, but I quickly calmed myself down as I looked into its Status and- something interrupted me.

”Kireina!”

What?  Who is it?!

Ah, Aura?

Suddenly, the voice of Aura spoke to me rather energetically. He wanted something out of me? What is it? Oh! Does he finally wants to invite me into a date, I wonder?

Ah for now, I should calm down and ask him what he wants casually.

”What is it?” I asked.

”Did you just governed over my own place?” he asked.

”Oh! Right… I think so… The Realm Core is capable of taking over territory on its own as it upgrades… Is this a bad thing?” I asked.

”Technically speaking, not really, as we are allies… But still, I didn’t knew about this and you should had explained this to me beforehand…” he said.

”I’m sorry…” I said.

”Okay… It’s fine. Will that core of yours begin assimilating the entire Astral Road?” he wondered.

”I think so…” I said.

”Hmm… I have to think about this… Ah, I guess we can still share authority, right?” he asked.

”Of course! I don’t mind. I am not even sure what “taking authority” over it even means, it is just superficial? Do I get some power?” I wondered.

”Yes, you get a lot of power. the Astral Road is not a superficial thing, it contains actual power and authority over a territory! It is not as easy going as you believe it is! Sigh… Anyways, I might as well explain to you later, for now I will go rest for a bit, I will contact you later so we can met…” he said.

”Nice, I am fine with that, see ya. Have a nice nap.” I said.

”Hahh… Okay, just don’t surprise me again, I really thought some alien from another dimension suddenly came to steal my authority…” said Aura.

”Come on, relax for a bit…” I said.

”that’s what I am going to do…” said Aura.

Aura quickly disappeared from the communication channel as I was left once more with Andromeda and the core.

”Was that Aura?” she asked.

”Yeah… Apparently the Core can take over territory over time, it seems that it took over his own Astral Road for real now, so he got surprised and thought an enemy had emerged, but it was me all along! How comedic, isn’t it?” I asked.

”I-It is not as comedic as you believe, Kireina… But whatever, take a look into the Status now!” said Andromeda.

”Alright, let me see…” I said.

Ding!

Oh, it had improved! Now it has SSS-Rank in everything! I wonder what’s next? Will it change name? Or will it remain as this as the cap? Hmm, well, I should really check the new Abilities it had acquired first, before anything else…

Looking back at my Realm Core Abilities there are a bunch of them, and all of them ended being upgraded as well. Each time the Realm Core upgrades, so does the Abilities within it, upgrading into higher forms to gain new and enhanced abilities within them.

Sometimes the effects receive a small buff and that’s it, but other times they might even gain new powers and abilities, or simply put completely new effects. Before checking the new abilities, I wanted to check all other abilities first and see what they changed…

Suddenly, several System windows emerged one after the other in front of me, checking this stuff out was always nice to see, if these abilities improved, the overall power of everyone would also improve as well.
