Thank you very much for your support!
---Chapter---
Shaking his head, Yuji quickly threw those thoughts aside as he wanted to check on his friends as soon as possible.
So, without further delay, he quickly ran out of the detention center which was quite easy as there was no longer a domain blocking the place.
Doing so, he was also quick to find Meguma outside who after seeing Yuji, instantly released a sigh of relief, and said.
"Thankfully, everything went alright, that was too dangerous!"
"Yes, it was..."
Sensing that something was wrong, Megumi couldn't help but frown and question Yuji.
"What happened in there?"
However, Yuji didn't directly explain what he had been through as he asked back.
"Do you know of any strong silver-haired and golden-eyed sorcerer?"
"Silver-haired and golden-eyed?"
Hearing this, Megumi felt puzzled for a moment before suddenly remembering something which caused his eyes to shrink before he hurriedly asked Itadori.
"Quickly, tell me what happened!!!"
Seeing this, Yuji couldn't help but scratch the side of his face in confusion before finally starting to talk.
"Well, after you left...."
It's just that while this was happening, the protagonist of that story was already miles away from the detention center as he was currently heading towards Yuki's direction.
'Hahaha, I haven't seen her in a while, does she miss me?'
'Well... Previously, I promised her that I would create a new power system, and now that I am done, I am quite curious about how her reaction will be.'
'And speaking of finishing the power system, it seems that I have inadvertently just received a very important piece of the puzzle.'
Reaching here, Lorien couldn't help but think about the knowledge he had just gained about open domains, the method of creating one, and how it could be integrated into the 'Dream Path'.
'The creation of a central element for the domain will not only allow the domain to manifest itself in reality similar to how Sukuna uses 'Malevolent Shrine', but it would also strengthen and stabilize it.'
'So, even If I am planning on making myself the center of the open domain expansion instead of said element, I should still create one and use it as a pillar of my Inner Dream World to further improve its structure.'
'This is analogous to how a 'world tree' acts as the center of certain worlds, stabilizing them as their pillar and allowing them to exist.'
'Without the world tree 'holding up' those worlds, they might have collapsed long ago.'
'So, by creating such an element, this would not only strengthen and stabilize my [Inner Dream World], but it may also be a very important element that may allow me to reach the [Transcendent] level in the future.'
'After all, even certain real worlds need a central element to act as a pillar, not to mention my [Inner Dream World].'
'However, I could also change it into a double pillar kind of parameter, with the first being the central element, and the second being myself, so that even if the central element were to collapse, nothing would happen to the [Inner Dream World] as long as I am there.'
Thinking of this, Lorien's eyes couldn't help but shine brightly as a smile appeared on his face.
After all, no matter how small a thing may be, as long as it could allow him to further improve and push himself closer toward his future goals, he would feel very joyful about it.
It's just that after thinking about all of this, Lorien has to now make some modifications and add the open domain feature alongside some other things to the newly created 'Dream Path'.
'Tsk, thankfully, I haven't reached the [Outer Dream] level yet as after completing the [Inner Dream] stage, I wanted to relax a bit.'
'Now, it seems that this decision was the right one as the effort required to change something already existent is a lot larger.'
'Hmmm...Thanks to my chrono eyes, I copied all of Sukuna's knowledge and experience about open domains; and with my power, it'll only take a couple of days to get the results I want.'
'Following that, I'll just modify the [Outer Dream] stage and finally be done with it!'
Scratching his shin, a smirk appeared on Lorien's face as he couldn't help but wonder.
'Hmmm, by then, I can use my [Inner Dream World] as a 'closed domain' where I can pull people inside, an 'open domain' where I can just manifest my [Inner Dream World] into reality and override it, and finally, a 'quasi domain' where I can just use myself as the center and act as an open domain without actually manifesting it.'
'This will allow me to finally alter reality without any medium!'
Shaking his head, Lorien decided to not think about it any longer, so, following a spacial distortion, he instantly disappeared from his position just to appear at his home in Japan.
'Well, it's just a couple of days or so; I'll deal with this, and then I'll head out to meet Yuki.'
'Speaking of which, I really wonder what kind of information and boost I will receive after other people absorb the 'Dream Path Seed'.'
'I feel like things won't be as simple as just receiving information, however, that's just my intuition, so all I can do is wait.'
'Also...'
Reaching here, Lorien couldn't help but wonder about his future actions as he had basically got all the things he wanted from this world.
Right now, he could just launch the 'Dream Path' worldwide, get ownership of the world, and just leave.
However, just as this thought emerged in his mind, he instantly extinguished it as he didn't get enough fun in this world yet.
'Now that my business is all done, I can finally enjoy myself!'
'So, after finishing my work here and meeting Yuki, I should go play around a bit!'
'Hmmmm, where should I go first? Should I first meet Maki and help her gain the power that will allow her to kill the Zen'in clan? or should I go toy with Kenjaku first?'
'No, No, No! Kenjaku should be left last! after all, it is more enjoyable to destroy people when they are at their peak and think that everything is going according to their plan!'
Thinking of this, a smirk appeared on Lorien's face before he closed his eyes and lay on the sofa.
'Alright then! It's decided!'
'But I have to work quickly so I can play around as soon as possible.'
