"Fine… I'll prepare everything and have it sent over to Tulluan.
How do you plan to send the tools over to Gebrion?"
"I'll use the Merchant Group since it's a property under their management and care until now, it should be a problem."
Esmond had a clear plan and vision going ahead at this point, having figured out one of the biggest problems which solved an issue he had no real idea to solve.
While he could have used the Cosmic Sail Star Group to move the whole system in an obscure part of the universe, for the right price anyone could be found.
That reason alone concerned Esmond that someone would eventually come looking for the Thazukraans with deep pockets to pay for information.
.
Before he left, Carter brought up another piece of news that he needed to inform Esmond of as soon as possible so he could free Echo from dealing with it.
"With the Credits you have right now, can you go upgrade the Spatial Core Management System Mainframe we got brought over to the space.
While it is upgraded already by the space once it entered, we found it can be even more… powerful than what Echo and I found at first."
Esmond agreed with Carter's thoughts and shifted with Carter over to the colossus building that housed the mainframes and servers which were being used by the A.Is.
The facility spanned down several kilometres and was controlled closely, especially the temperature, keeping the area as cold as possible.
Carter led Esmond to the section that was designated to the Spatial Core Management System Mainframe where Echo currently was working and doing his best to upgrade everything with ogryx manufactured parts as well as Ugusta Star Empire materials Esmond was rewarded previously.
The parts helped not only improve their own servers and mainframes, but Kanes, Eddies, and Gabriel's as well who also felt a surge of improvement from their previous capabilities and processing powers.
What they found though when inspecting the upgraded system was its ability to control the space within the Spatial Stones similar to how Carter currently controlled the Spatial Ark Land.
They also learnt it could possibly scan incoming materials and send the information to the Spatial Ark Land, but Carter and Echo weren't sure the stones would be able to keep a connection with the Spatial Ark Land unless the Spatial Core Management System Mainframe was upgraded similarly like there were.

[Spatial Core Management System Mainframe has been upgraded into Artificial Spatial Management Spirit]
.
With a flash of 50 million Credits gone from his wallet and a flash of golden light suddenly appearing in front of him, Esmond saw a female spirit forming.
Her light blonde hair and light golden eyes were a sight to see.
Esmond still found it amazing to see an Artificial Spirit form before his eyes.
Soon the stunning figure of the was in the picture of his sight though she was covered in clothes that were formed along with her body, she had a breath-taking figure.
"Master…" her eyes locked onto Esmond were a serious glint in her eyes, waiting of his orders.
"…. Your name will be Isabelle, now tell me what your capabilities are…"
"Thank you Master for my name…
I am able to connect with Spatial Cores produced within the Spatial Ark Land and maintain the construction of the Spatial Worlds within them.
It also means I manage their connection with the Spatial Ark Land as well, meaning I can also cut the connection if you please and would like to sell them further in the future, however at any time I can reconnect with the Cores.
The spaces will also work similar in kind to the Spatial Ark Land, as they can scan the materials that enter and improve though the function can be disabled." Isabelle explained, much to the astonishment Esmond who thought about a million ways to expand his power and reach silently.
Esmond asked for her opinion on the matter of using the stones to bring over the planets into the space, to which she agreed and helped him understand that as along as the stones were resting in the soil of the planet, she could begin expanding the powers of the Cores to encompass the worlds.
Of course, Esmond method would help quicken the process to bring over the planets, Isabelle's method gave Esmond another option he could use.
Knowing this, Esmond left for the cabin, leaving Isabelle in the capable hands of Echo and Carter while he spoke with Tulluan.
He knew the items would be prepared shortly, but he still felt it necessary to let Tulluan know so he could make preparations immediately.
.
After the two chatted for a short time, Esmond sent over the materials using the powers of the Gem Pad which were connected with the Spatial Ark Land.
Tulluan immediately got to work and sent out the Spatial Cores, which were activated and connected with Isabelle.
Because it was going to take a couple hours for everything to be ready before Isabelle could bring over the first planet, Esmond decided to finally head over to the Universal Sentient Lifeform Essence Spring.
He warned Carter and Echo, including Isabelle as well now, that he was about to take a dip in the spring, and it might cause them unknown levels of pain.
Isabelle and Echo both wished Esmond well, Carter on the other hand…
"Eat a dick, do you think I would cheer for you when you cause me miserable pain that wants me to crack open your stupid head."
"… Thank you, Carter, for your resounding support… much love, jackass…"
Esmond said before he shifted to the location of the spring.
It was at the foot of a mountain that stretched up high into the clouds, but it all seemed very foggy and misty as Esmond walked along the trail to the beginning of the spring where he found a small lake of the Universal Sentient Lifeform Essence Spring.
The whole area was very dense land filled with luscious plants and trees that were fed by the spring.
Even the mountain seemed to be connected with the spring and growing along with it.
Esmond didn't know it just yet, but the mountain contained stones were being filled with pure Universal Sentient Lifeform Essence, making them powerful crystals that contained near unlimited energy.
But that was a story for another time…
With nothing else stopping him, Esmond dove right into the lake, before lost all consciousness, passing out as he slowly drowned in the spring lake.
When Esmond came to, he noticed the string of messages from the system as well as the cruel pain that assaulted his body.

'No fucking wonder everything hurts so damn much…'
Esmond groaned in his bed, having noticed he was back in his bedroom.
He wondered how he made it back from the spring, thankfully he didn't wait long before an answer came knowing.
"Isabelle… what are you doing here?" Esmond questioned her as he entered his room, however he wasn't surprised by answer.
"Carter was affected as well it seems, but myself and Echo were largely exempt from the affects, we both still felt some linger pain but not to the level you or Carter experienced.
Echo placed Carter in his room, while I returned you to your bedroom, Master."
Esmond thanked Isabelle and slowly got out from his bed for checking his appearance in the mirror.
His jet-black hair with the red streak completely changed into a unique white that sparkled like a starlight but with a sparkle of black streaks through parts of the hair.
Both of his eyes each had their own unique colour change, with his left turning platinum silver and his right turning a ruby red.
They still seemed as deep as they were before, appearing endless as the galaxies and universe, but it looked as if they could see the very nature of the world.
His body also changed, growing a little taller and his body becoming more refined.
The muscles on his body seemed carved by the hands of fate and beauty to Esmond, but what he was rather star struck by his striking beauty.
'Damn… I think I'm going to need a mask to cover my face out in public…'
He wasn't wrong or joke, as he knew the changes that came with the improvement of the body and normal people couldn't always handle the sight of stunning beauty.
.
Esmond left his room and headed towards the lounge as he saw Carter crashed out on the lounge, complaining.
"Son of a bitch… argh… your lucky that we let him fester in the damn spring for longer than expected." Carter cursed aloud with Echo sitting close by nodding every so often in agreement, even though his eyes were shut, focusing on multiple matters around the system.
"Well… we both know I improved out of the shitty experience… argh my knee…"
Esmond smashed his knee into the side of the sofa, causing him to stumble and fall.
Carter was laughing at his misery before sitting upright and asking sincerely, "Something for the ugly mug?"
"Yeah, if you could, that would be great…"
Esmond smiled at Carter before taking a seat in the lounge.
He was trying to be careful not to crush anything with his extra strength and power that he gained from his frolic in the spring.
It'd also changed his system status information slightly, but after checking everything in his room, he found his body had improved vastly.
The core in his body had strengthened as well and connected deeply with his entire body system.
All three points, Body, Soul, and Mind were connected together, uniformly, which meant he could cycle enter through his body with greater power.
He thought about heading to the Hunting Ground and testing it out immediately, but he left to train in swordsmanship and martial arts before working on the foundation of his body.
Though it was getting late in the evening and his parents would be returning soon because it was close to 8pm, Esmond thought about working creating a new training regimen.
Along with his daily tasks that required him to run and do some push up and sit ups, Esmond also trained in martial arts and weaponry of all kinds every day.
He'd either created the training regiments or came across them in his previous lives so it wasn't difficult for him to quickly reach peak levels with his current physical constraints.
Esmond wanted to see how far he could push them forward with the new improvements, so he left the cabin and shifted to one of the training facilities, leaving behind the others in the cabin for the time being.
But as he readied himself in his stance and summoned a sword to his hands from the Inventory, the system sent him a notification.
