Chapter 102 - God Eater

'Wait a second! What do you mean "unlocked"?' Aaron asked in confusion. The system in his mind was strangely vague with how it spoke, so he needed to confirm it.

[Essentially, I can create Boundless Abilities out of ideas. Permanent ones, unlike the temporary one you got back on that planet.]

'Oh, you mean Boundless Corruption? I completely forgot it was a temporary ability.' Aaron admitted.

[So, do you want to see the Boundless Abilities I prepared for you?]

'Sure, throw them at me!'

[Well then, let me pull them up.]

{Loading New Abilities}

{Boundless Corruption (True Potential)}

{Boundless Infinity}

{Absolute Potential}

{God Eater}

{Overwhelming Destructive Power}

{The World of Aaron}

{Boundless Interdimensional Summon}

{Title: Ultimatum}

'WHOA! Hold on for a god damn second! That ain't a small number of abilities, and some aren't Boundless!' Aaron yelled out mentally, confused at this situation.

[Well, I never said that there would only be Boundless Abilities there, did I? I found a little exploit in my own system that you can abuse. You may only be able to choose one Boundless Ability every time you come here. This rule also extends to normal abilities, meaning that you can pick one Boundless Ability and one non-Boundless Ability. Pretty useful, huh? Also, that title comes for free, so you don't need to worry about those. Each of these abilities will be bound to your soul, so don't worry about it being lost when you go to a new planet.]

'You know, I'm not sure if I should be impressed or scared about what you can do, system. There's a skill there literally titled God Eater. Do you realise how threatening that sounds?' Aaron asked the system.

[That was the entire point of the name! It fits so well with its ability it's insane.]

'Ok, I'm now certain that I should be afraid.' Aaron admitted.

[Well, before you become scared of me, you should at least check out the abilities I gave to you. They are pretty good, in my opinion.]

'Fine. Pull up each ability.'

{Boundless Corruption (True Potential)}

{The ability to utilise the power of Corruption on an almost infinite scale. You can manipulate anything about Corruption, from effect, colour, shape, etcetera. Seems like an insanely utilisable ability, no?}

{Boundless Infinity}

{The ability to do absolutely anything your heart desires. Grants proper access to the words "I can do anything!"}

{Absolute Potential}

{The ability to be the absolute best at anything you do, as long as you want to be the best at it.}

{God Eater}

{Clue is in the name. It allows you to eat, or absorb would be a better term, any being you desire. You gain their strengths, their abilities, but also their weaknesses. Of course, if you can prevent their downsides from affecting you, it is simply irrelevant when you gain them. It also comes with the option of copying people's body parts, so that's a bonus.}

{Overwheming Destructive Power}

{In the words of a specific earthen video game character, "You're gonna have a bad time."}

{The World of Aaron}

{You gain the ability to manipulate everything within a ten-metre radius of you to whatever degree you wish.}

{Boundless Interdimensional Summon}

{You can summon beings from other dimensions, such as eldritch gods or even identical versions of yourself, and they will have no choice but to follow your commands. DON'T do this in front of people who do not know your power because it would cause mass hysteria.}

{(Title) Ultimatum}

{Only to be awarded to someone who is in the top fifty beings across this known universe. It grants the ability [Ultimate]}

{Ultimate}

{The strongest. One who is only known for sheer strength and the fear that people have for them. It grants the ability to increase their planetary aura to that which shows when they are in their True Form.}

'In all honesty, I'm overwhelmed by this selection of abilities, but I think I have an idea of what I want to choose. There are some good ones there, so I'll pick up the others later on, but for now, I think I know which abilities I want to use.'

[And what would those abilities be?]

"I want to choose God Eater and Boundless Interdimensional Summon!" Aaron yelled out accidentally, startling Shadow and Algenon, as they didn't expect this at all. Aaron had been quiet for the past little while, so they were curious. "Wait, what do you mean by God Eater-" Algenon began to yell out before Aaron shone a blinding white light.

[Great Choice!]

{God Eater has been bestowed upon you!}

{Boundless Interdimensional Summon has been bestowed upon you!}

{Ultimatum has been bestowed upon you!}

{Ultimate has been bestowed upon you!}

'What the hell...?' Aaron asked himself, confused as to what the voice said. He couldn't understand what it was saying. It reminded him of the mask he wore back on the planet he just destroyed, except far creepier. It was distorted beyond belief as if it was in a different language. Aaron shook it off as a one-time thing, not trying to think about it.

"Aaron, explain to me what the fuck you just did," Algenon asked Aaron, trying to shake him by the shoulders, but his hands just phased through Aaron's body. "Or else some stupid shit is going to happen. I can already tell."

"Oh, don't worry, you don't need to bother yourself about what I just did. I'm going to do a field test of my new abilities. Let me choose a planet to test it on!" Aaron excitedly responded as he began scanning the planets for one to travel to for testing.

"I really wouldn't do that if I were you. You should see the Council before you do anything else!" Algenon advised, but Aaron was already jumping down to a planet he had found. "Adios! I'll talk to the Council once I'm done with this planet!"

"You know that he's an idiot, right?" Algenon asked Shadow. "Yeah, but he's a good idiot." Shadow replied.
