Several system notifications resounded within Ray's consciousness. However, he did not have the time to check them.
After all, how could he? The smell was suffocating him and he couldn't breathe properly.
Just as he stood up to wash off the impurities, one of the magic crystals within the room lit up and a light shot out from it and fell on him, as the light fell on him all the impurities were cleaned along with the sweat he had accumulated during the breakthrough.
Ray then sighed in relief,
"Thankfully, I took the best room available.".
After this he sat down and checked the system notifications.
****
Half an hour later Ray sighed,
"It had taken him half an hour to check the notifications, although the notifications weren't much and they did not take half an hour to read. Ray had been studying his gains after reading the notifications.
This way, he gained a lot of information and also broadened his horizons. He finally understood why Aurora had told him that she would allow him to truly unlock his system.
Although he had fused with his system back then, now he was currently able to use the system more efficiently like he was using his limb. There were many features that the system lacked and it appeared different from other systems that Ray knew about.
Ray had once asked Aurora regarding this matter but the reply he got was unsatisfactory. She said,
"Just focus on getting stronger for now. When your strength reaches a certain threshold you will get to know about it".
And right now, after reading the notifications. Ray suspected that he had indeed reached the threshold and that was why many features had appeared. Hence, he spent the previous half an hour looking for any new features that may have been unlocked, and indeed, just like he had suspected, some various new features and systems had been unlocked while a new set of skills had also appeared on his system's tab.
But the thing that excited Ray the most wasn't the skill set or any other features. No, it was a new tab that had been added to the system. He clicked on the tab and the information regarding it appeared in front of him.
----
[Shop]:-
(Allows host to have access to various items, artifacts, beast souls, skills, and techniques available in the universe. It requires System points as a form of currency to purchase items within the shop).
Ray read the information and realized that although the introduction was not too fancy. It was enough, enough to make him excited to try it out immediately. However, he held back as there were a lot of things to analyze and he also wanted to have a chat with Aurora.
After all, the most important factor was the breakthrough he had. Therefore, he needed Aurora's knowledge and guidance in these matters.
Hence, he asked her about the changes he felt not only within the system but also in his body. His body felt different yet familiar at the same time. He did not know how to describe the feeling his body gave off.
He asked,
"Aurora, at least help me. I don't know what has happened to my body after the breakthrough so help me familiarize my condition".
To his dismay, there was no reply. The link that shared his consciousness with Aurora came out as static .
Ray knew that something was going on with Aurora, therefore he did not pursue the matter anymore and started to diagnose his condition by himself.
Meanwhile,
As Ray diagnosed his condition, Aurora was trying to assimilate a small quantity of the primal energy present within Ray that had been absorbed by her after his breakthrough.
The process had been extremely taxing on her causing her to sever her connection with the system and solely concentrate on assimilating the energy and using it to refine the system.
While Aurora was assimilating the energy, Ray was diagnosing himself.

Unbeknownst to both Ray and Aurora, they were the topic of a conversation to be held millions of light-years away from them.
Far away in a sea of stars where darkness ruled.
Two handsome men were standing in front of each other. One wore a completely white robe, that seemed to be free of any imperfections, untainted by any impurities of the world. While the other wore battle armor as dark as night itself. If not for the man deliberately showing his presence, he would have long converged within the endless sea of stars. Becoming undetectable.
Both men were extremely handsome and had a unique charm of their own.
A charm that could make women go crazy over them. Both of these men had a smile on their faces. However, one's smile differed from the other. The one within the white robe had a gentle angelic smile on his face and he looked extremely pleasing to the eye. He also gave off an approachable aura.
While the man dressed in black armor had a devilish smile on his face. The smile made him seem like the devil but it was still captivating.
Currently, these extremely handsome men were waiting for someone.
Almost at that exact moment, a spatial rift appeared within the vast boundless space. Along with the spatial rift, a middle-aged man stepped forward.
Although the middle-aged man did not look special compared to the two young men standing in front of him. The aura that he released surpassed the both of them to such an extent that they used their willpower to keep themselves standing.
Upon Seeing the middle-aged man appear, the two young men hurriedly bowed and said simultaneously,
"Welcome Master, this humble disciple greets you".
A smile came upon the middle-aged man's face as he heard his disciples greeting him. He then waved his hand and said,
"You both shall stand. Now.. for the reason I have called you here….".
The man imparted words to his disciples and waited for them to digest the information he had told them. After a few moments. The man in a white robe spoke,
"So it is time , the forbidden power has been inherited. Meaning there will be a world that would be able to resist the invasion".
To this, the man in black giggled, "Keke… times sure have changed, it will be a good show to watch".
However, there was one thing the man in white did not understand. Therefore, he pondered for a moment and then asked his master,
"If the forbidden power has been inherited, then why did you call us here master?".
-----
After Listening to the question asked by his disciple, the middle-aged man's face lit up and he said,
"It's Good that you asked, I was moving onto it. The reason I called both of you here is to keep an eye on the inheritor and don't let any outsider harm him".
He then continued,
"I'm sure that if we could obtain this information, there would be many others to do so as well. I'm afraid that they would use some underhanded methods to harm the inheritor".
Listening to their master's words, the expression of both young men turned serious and they exclaimed,
"Yes master, we will make sure that no outsider harms the inheritor".
The middle-aged man then muttered, "Good… good, now go make preparations for your journey. I will open a long-distance spatial rift to transport you guys there. Remember to keep the seal on yourself and don't dare deactivate it".
"Yes master", both men replied and bowed while the middle-aged man disappeared within the boundless starry sky.
