Chapter 56 - Chapter – 56 (Stairway to Heavens)

Once entering Home, Primis decided not to waste time for anything else and directly contact Ophis.

'Primis: Twilight, give me the co-ordinates.'

[Wait. I am finding correct time of contact.]

'Primis: Time?'

[Yes. I will give you the co-ordinates of time when Ophis left the Dimensional Gap to find those who could help her defeat Great Red. Because if you go before then she will disagree to leave with you and if you go later than she would have already become founder & leader of Khaos Brigade. And again, she will disagree to leave with you.]

'Primis: Won't it be a problem? Since it will be future Ophis instead of the current Ophis. Didn't this mean there will be one more "Wächter"?'

[That's where you came in.]

'Primis: I am listening.'

[You must convince Ophis to not only come with you but also become Permanent-Member. Once someone become Permanent-Member then they will become unique existence just like you. In other words, you and your Permanent-Members won't exist in any parallel universes or timeline.]

'Primis: Means we only exist in present.'

[Correct. You all will be completed separated from Fate, Destiny, Karma and so on. That's why no one could see your past and future because you all didn't exist there in the first place. Think what will happen if there will be multiple Primis and your Permanent-Members.]

Primis felt a chill down his spine imagining this. Thinking what will happen if there will multiple Primis who had Awakening. And not all will have same personality as him. Someone will be enjoy killing, raping, destroying, ruling and so on. If that happened then soon, they would clash with each other to show their supremacy and their clash will destroy the world. Primis gulped nervously.

'Primis: That will be nightmare.'

[Right. That's why you and your Permanent-Members will be unique existences. This also answers your question. When Ophis will become your Permanent-Member, only she will exist not any of her counterpart.]

'Primis: Ok. How much time you need?'

[5-10 mins. Though, I can still talk to you without any problem.]

'Primis: Then I have some questions.'

[What is it?]

'Primis: Other worlds don't have dungeon like here, does this mean me and members can't increase our level there?'

[Don't worry, such concept won't apply to you and your members. Your stats and level will increase whenever you kill monsters or anyone you think as enemy.]

'Primis: Enemy. Huh.'

[Yes. As long as you kill those whom you deemed as enemies, you will gain Excelia no matter what.]

'Primis: I see. Another one.'

[I think I know what it is.]

'Primis: Ohhh.'

[You want to know whether there's something like Dungeon which you can be used in your Home to increase your members strength, right?]

'Primis: Right.'

[Yes. There is something like this. It's called "Stairway to Heavens".]

'Primis: Stairway to Heavens.'

[Mn. It's a tower which has floors just like dungeon. As you go higher stronger enemies will appear.]

'Primis: Since you didn't mention it until now, this means some conditions need to be met, right?'

[Yes. There are two ways to get it. First, you need to become 3rd Level Existence.]

'Primis: Can't I just do it in my Awakening?'

[You can. But you are forgetting something. Your Awakening uses Origin Force. So, if you will make the tower than it will be full of Origin Force. As a result, only you will be able to enter it and that is only in your Awakening Form.]

'Primis: I see. And the second option?'

[......…]

Twilight became silent for some time. Primis raised one of his brows but waited patiently.

[Kill another host. Then I will absorb that his system and gave you "Stairway to Heavens".]

Primis eyes widened slightly hearing this.

'Primis: Another Host. Means other Transmigrators.'

[Exactly. Even though you don't have memories of the past. You still have the knowledge and information of Novels, Games and Animes, didn't you?]

Primis had solemn expression. But he didn't say anything and let Twilight continue.

[You know how someone dies and reincarnated in another world with system, or how when they die God appears in front of them and give them the wishes, or how some great expert dies and went back into past with all their knowledge and so on. And you will meet these types of people in future.]

'Primis: I get it that if I kill these Transmigrators then you can absorb their systems and provide new features.'

[Exactly.]

'Primis: Then what will I get by killing those who returned to past. After all, not all have system.'

[It's true that they won't have system, but you will get something very precious from them.]

'Primis: And that is?'

[Knowledge and Experience.]

'Primis: Knowledge and Experience. Huh.'

[By this I didn't mean the life they live but all the Knowledge they have accumulated throughout their lives.]

'Primis: Alright. Then what about Experience?'

[Think of it like you have all the knowledge on how to make Potion, Weapons, Poison, Alchemy and so on. But this knowledge is all useless if you didn't have any experience of making it yourself.]

'Primis: I get it. Interesting.'

Saying till there, a smile formed on Primis face.

[Anyway. Unlike you these people won't have to face five times penalty. Hence, their strength will increase rapidly. So, you should also start to increase your strength. After all, these people also have a lot of life-saving tools, treasures, artifacts and so on.]

'Primis: I know.'

Then Primis became silent, and Twilight continued finding the co-ordinates. After 10 minutes.

[Found it. Be ready.]

Hearing this, Primis stood up.

Primis: Come Aurora!!!!

BOOM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A burst of Origin Force came out of him. It then turned into a vortex. Primis was between the vortex, and he could feel his power growing and growing. Midnight Coat and Elucidator had already returned to his soul. After some time, vortex disappeared and Primis appeared again. This time he was in his Awakening Form. Aurora's twin-blades representing day and night were in his hands. He put the Blades back into their stealth.

[I have sent the co-ordinates to you.]

Nodding his head Primis left this Home World.

Next, Primis appeared on top of Babel Tower again. He gave Orario one last look and then closed his eyes. Soon he bathed in the light and disappeared.

******

******

******

Primis found himself in an empty space. This was an endless void which had a mix of iridescent colors. You can describe it as looking through a kaleidoscope.

Primis: So, this is the space between to all other worlds.

[Yes. By the way, Primis how did you do that?]

Primis: Do what?

[I only gave you the co-ordinates. I didn't tell you how to teleport yourself. So, how did you do that? When did you learn how to use Origin Force like this?]

Primis: ...... I don't know.

[What?]

Primis: I just did it like that.

[So, you yourself have no Idea. Huh.]

Primis: Yeah. Though I have a rough guess.

[What is it?]

Primis: Whenever I meditate in the Concentrated Origin Force Pond in Home, I feel like my understanding of Origin is increasing. Even though it's almost negligible but there is still some.

[I see. That answers my question. Anyway, you shouldn't undo your Awakening no matter what because without the protection of Origin Force, you will die within a matter of seconds after being exposed to the "nothingness".]

Nodding his head, Primis continued looking around. As he concentrated, he saw many colorful spheres hidden in this endless void. He moved towards one of them and touched it. Soon images started to appear his head.

******

******

This world was set in Edo period of Japan, where giant insects started appearing and attacking people 100 years ago, and since then had brought terror and death to the country. He saw many Samurai, ninjas, warriors killing these insects to save people. But some were still killed and got eaten by them.

In between them, Primis saw a short and petite young girl. Her clothes darken black with a dark purple aura, her hairs were black, and she grew a pair of dark purple butterfly wings behind her. She was flying in air. She raised her hand and dark purple Mist came out of them. This mist soon swallowed all the insects. The mist was a so poisonous that insects started melting.

******

******

Primis removed his hand which was touching the sphere.

Primis: Was that----

[Yes. The world of "Mushibugyō". And I think you already know who you saw.]

Primis: That was Princess Naa or I should say Kuroageha, the magistrate of Mushibugyo.

[Exactly.]

Primis: Can I enter this world if I want right now?

[No, You can't. When I will give you the co-ordinates of the worlds in future then those co-ordinates will directly take you inside the Sphere instead of here. In case you try to enter any sphere from outside then that Sphere will break, and that world will be destroyed.]

Primis nodded and went to touch another one. Images started to appear in his head again.

******

******

This was more advanced world than "Mushibugyō". Alongside with technology you can also see a lot of vegetation. It was to the point you can see many Trees that grew so much that they had broken through even planet's atmosphere.

You can see many members of humanity who were capable of tracking down secret treasures, rare beasts, or even other individuals. These people were controlling an aura around their body. To strengthen their defense, shuts the flow of aura, useful for concealing one's presence and relieving fatigue. And using it for many different ways and shapes.

******

******

Primis: Nen.

[Yes. This is the world of "Hunter X Hunter".]

Just like that Primis checked many Spheres. He saw many worlds like Naruto, My Hero Academia, Guilty Crown, Fate Universe, Akame ga Kill, Fairy Tail, Strike the Blood, Bleach, The Seven Deadly Sins, Re:ZERO -Starting Life in Another World, Infinite Stratos, Hundred, Black Clover, Arifureta: From Commonplace to World's Strongest, Valvrave the Liberato, so on and so forth.

Primis: I can go in every single one of them later. Huh.

[Yes.]

Primis: I see. Anyway, that's for later. I need to find Ophis now.

Then Primis fly towards the co-ordinates. According to Twilight, he will meet Ophis here at any time now, so he decided to wait. As he was waiting, he started thinking of his future plans. Time went by, soon he sensed something but waited. Suddenly someone appeared behind Primis and said in emotionless tone.

???: Who are you? And how are you still alive in this endless void?
