Systems and Primordials! II
Systems and Primordials! II

'Cecilia!'
Noah repeated this name over and over again in his mind as he got the chance to know of the Primordial that Hyperion was aiming for.
He turned thoughtful as Eckert stared at him closely.
"This is all I know about the Invincible System…but what I can speak to you about are Systems themselves based on what I've managed to find out and from my experience Subjugating those that have Systems!"
WAA!
Eckert's words continue to resound as Noah focused on him once more, this Usurper shifting on his seat as he seemed to enjoy the attention while he continued.
"All the Systems I've come across so far involve a change in an existence that is caused by a Primordial- a change that is done deep in one's soul as the only thing capable of causing it to bear fruit is a special type of essence!"
"The Essence of Reality…an Essence that the Primordials who split apart the Main Reality and brought about the endless branching ones can utilize. With this, they find destined existences that they consider compatible as they etch a Primordial Epitaph onto their Souls! This Primordial Epitaph built with the essence of Reality itself is the big mystery to the ridiculous Systems that all Champions show!"
The Primordial Epitaph etched onto the souls of special existences!
The Reality bending effects that the Champions showed within their Reality stemmed from this unique construct, each one different based on the Primordial who designed it for their effects.
"Do you remember those old RPG games you played that had items that had loot modifiers?" While talking about grandiose concepts such as Primordial Epitaphs and the Essence of Reality, Eckert took a hard turn to ask Noah this question!
Noah raised his eyes and nodded, Eckert smiling as he continued.
"Well, My System went by the just fantastic name of Idle Gaming System, the Primordial that designed it making it so that his Champions received a multiplicative effect of all the loot they obtained from the Origins of other existences. Modifiers like increased loot quantity and quality along with a staggering of time added in, and with the reality bending effect of Timed Infinite Duplication…I was able to receive loot in time stamps continuously after clearing dungeons or Rifts!"
"Can you imagine it? You're sleeping or relaxing and you simply feel Universal Filament Cores or Primordial Hearts appear in your inventory! While Idle, you constantly get more loot that you only have to absorb and get stronger…in a limited timed manner, of course. I only found this out after I redesigned my System later- the meaning of the Timed Infinite Duplication was that this Reality bending effect was timed in a unique manner. But that is a brief overview of the Idle Gaming System!"
Eckert finished his words grandly as he laid back on his throne, his eyes reminiscing of the past as he shook his head while continuing.
"I'm guessing you simply want to understand more about Systems because you have the crazy goal of making one for yourself if you truly aren't a Champion…"
His sharp eyes locked on to Noah as these two beings looked at each other, Noah smiling devilishly as he tapped his finger on the throne while thinking.
The qualities of the System Eckert mentioned was actually something he was working towards, his Increased Loot Quantity and Increased Loot Rarity being the reality bending effects that were making the ridiculous gain of billions of Splendiferous Universes possible!
But he was limited to a specific percentage even after he turned his Dao into a Runic Dao Line, while the Systems brought to light by the Primordial Epitaphs known only to Primordials didn't have such tight restrictions as they made many things possible.
"The Supreme Necromancer System?" His voice came out slowly as he was still thinking of many things.
"A Champion going by Ezekiel had this System, this guy being capable of calling forth an Undead Legion that could fill entire Cosmos that didn't depend on Mana to be called out, with the System being capable of turning any living existence into an enhanced version of Undead…even Primordial Beasts!"
WAA!
"It didn't allow one to simply conjure Undead as they had to turn living beings into Undead, but there is no limit to the number one can accumulate. The talent and might of the undead when they were alive is kept as if it was an existence that could easily assimilate Daos...they can now do it better! If they had the talent of fusing Daos and Laws into Edicts...they can now do it better under your Undead Legion! And of course, whatever they comprehend...you as their master also comprehends!"
RUMBLE!
As Eckert spoke, the area behind him began to twist and turn as an image of an endless Legion of unique existences flashed in and out of existence.
"Whether you have a trillion Undead in your Legion or a quintillion, whether they're all Daolords or existences with Edicts...everything is up to you. This...is just the tip of the iceberg for that System."
"..."
Noah's eyes flashed with light as he watched the illusory image of an endless Undead army fade away from behind Eckert, his eyes looking on to the forefront of this army as he saw the images of titanous Lesser Primordial Beasts in the lead!
"You've been busy…" He watched as the illusory scene faded away and spoke calmly towards Eckert.
"Nowhere near as crazy as you. Who knows how close you are to reaching the Cosmic Realm! And the Eye of Ruination? If I have that, I won't have to rely on this broken sword to traverse Realities in a limited fashion as I could move freely…" Eckert spoke out with a smile while he stroked the illusory sword behind his back.
"But no matter. If you wish to have a System of your own, you have to either be leashed to a Primordial or become capable of utilizing the Essence of Reality yourself. Or have unique abilities similar to me...but they wouldn't be unique if everyone had them!"
Eckert shifted on his seat as he looked towards Noah carefully as he spoke the next set of words.
"Say...do you need help? My destiny has told me not to delve into your Reality ever since that veiled Primordial who is most likely Cecilia killed my other body, but I can still do some things if need be…"
WAA!
Eckert's eyes blazed with power as he seemed ready for anything, but Noah shook his head as his eyes turned up to watch his own fortune and destiny.
"No...I have already seen many paths and I know what I must do. By the end of it all...the blood of a Primordial shall be spilled!"
…!
