Kanzen had already travelled for almost a whole day, and yet he is still far from reaching the 'blue moon town'.
He looked at the distant horizon, seeing that the sun is about to set, he couldn't help but be frustrated.
"If only I could fly."
He muttered in a dejected and hopeful tone of voice.
He had tried flying earlier only to find out that his control over the wind element is lacking.
One's control is based on one's understanding.
His control over most of the elements is in the most basic beginner stages.
So even though he possessed a monstrous mana capacity, greater purity and higher grade in magic power, it wasn't enough to allow him to freely traverse the skies.
He could have supplemented it by doing another overdrive thought acceleration isolation.
However, he quickly denied the idea, he would rather not spend another long time doing something like that ever again.
He decided to only repeat the same thing during crucial times when he doesn't have any other choice.
For now, he just let his other parallel thoughts slowly comprehend the working of the elements.
Moreover, there's also the threat of flying beasts and monsters that couldn't be ignored.
'Thankfully, I have these 'parallel thoughts' of mine, life is easier this way.'
His soul trait 'omniscient genius' already reach 'F grade' in proficiency.
As a result, he gained a couple of new abilities together with the increase in power of the already present one's.
This upgrade added another ten new separate parallel thought processes and other more upgrades.
The most noteworthy of his new gains is the new ability called 'appraisal' which allows him to appraise things to their most basic source origin structure.
This new ability just boosted his already absurd comprehensive speed by another notch entirely.
…
Night came.
Kanzen decided to spend the night inside his 'private plane world' one of the rewards he received from the 'immemorial source codex' it was a reality level, mystic grade, soul bound treasure.
Before he wasn't really enthusiastic about having a personal private world of his own.
He is already living like a full-fledged introvert, granting him a world of his own would just worsen things 'that was what he thought' but now, after seeing what's inside the 'private plane world' the ever so composed and calm Kanzen couldn't help but just stood there in the place where he was summoned in utter shock, stunned at the sight before him.
Just as the description said, it's a world, and there's literally a whole world inside.
Sun, moon, sky, elements, mountains, land, sea, vegetation, and animals, everything is present inside this planner world.
He even spotted a magisterial luxurious house in the distance.
Moreover, the purity and grade of energies in this 'private plane world' is worlds apart higher compare to the outside world, as if comparing a dirt mud to a heavenly elixir, that's the difference.
Just from merely feeling the surrounding natural essence in the surroundings the frustration and fatigue that had accumulated this day of travel completely vanished.
He could also tell that if he were to stay here for a couple more days, his understanding over the elements and level of magic would surely skyrocket into unbelievable heights.
"What a fantastic place."
He subconsciously muttered, a glimmer of excitement flashing through his eyelids.
[Welcome master.]
Out of nowhere, a childish female voice rung directly in his head, and it's clear that isn't Tina this time.
This surprised him a bit that his guard rose, a frown developing in his face.
"This voice in my head, who are you?"
He asked.
Seeing the frown that had emerged on his face, the childlike voice in his head quickly apologized in panic.
[Oops, sorry! I didn't mean to startle you, master…]
[Hey, little brother Kanzen, are you a bully! Can't you tell little miss here didn't mean you any harm.]
Tina made her appearance.
"Big sis…"
[…]
The childish voice was shocked after seeing Tina manifest beside Kanzen.
[This little miss here is a genuine treasure spirit.]
Tina said.
Finally snapping out from her shock, the childish treasure spirit exclaimed.
[Eh, there's another treasure spirit.]
[Little one, from now on, calls me big sister, Tina.]
Tina said her voice gentle yet authoritative, it sounded like her words couldn't be denied.
'Is she asserting dominance?'
Kanzen couldn't help muttering inwardly.
[Yes big sister, Tina]
The young treasure spirit obediently complied, like a child listening to its parents.
"Do you have a name?"
Kanzen joined back in the conversation.
[I don't have a name, master, if you would, please grant me one.]
"A name, huh. How about Leah? Simple, short, and good."
[I'm now 'Leah' thank you, master.]
The young treasure spirit, Leah jovially thanked him, happy to have received a name when all of a sudden a bright dazzling light illuminated the entire place blinding everyone even Tina.
As the bright light slowly subsided a figure of a little girl emerges.
Clear blue aquamarine eyes reflecting the ocean.
Long curly white that reaches her waist.
A pair of bunny ears and a bunny tail.
Adorable face.
Completely white tight dress that exposes a bit of her cleavage.
Long white leggings that are almost transparent.
Leah's physical manifestation is that of a figure of an extremely seductive yet unreal cute little bunny girl.
Both Kanzen and Tina couldn't help but gawk at Leah's looks for two different reasons that isn't too far apart.
Kanzen worried about his preferences when it comes to woman, speechless by the fact that he was a bit captivated to Leah's figure.
'Is this because I'm literally a child myself right now?'
He couldn't help but ask.
Tina was stunned noticing that Kanzen was clearly captivated to Leah's physical manifestation.
She felt a slight pain in her heart, not out of pure jealousy, more like that of competitiveness as if she were challenged.
*Cough* *Cough*
Tina faked a cough to snap Kanzen from his dazed state.
[Leah you look so cute.]
Tina appeared before Leah, embracing the little treasure spirit tightly.
Her earlier jealousy and competitiveness was replaced by possessive desire to pamper the little treasure spirit.
[Master, how does Leah look?]
Leah ignored Tina's caressing and asked Kanzen.
"You look great, I can't deny that I was a bit captivated by your figure and looks."
He said straightforwardly and with an honest face.
[…]
Tina embracing Leah was speechless once again.
'Just how bold is this little guy? Or is he just an air head when it comes to his words.
That's too much for an honest answer you know.'
Tina shook her head a bit worried about his future interactions with other women.
She realized that he might be an airhead when it comes to complementing others or in the worst-case scenario he is a real airhead.
He hadn't yet interacted with other people, so she didn't notice this part of him.
'Right, this little guy is once a hero, and most heroes are airheads.'
As if realizing something Tina looks at Kanzen in a different light.
…
After completing Leah a bit more and Tina sorting out her thoughts about Kanzen's airheadsness, the two of them were guided inside the unbelievably luxury mansion that could make Imperial castles look plane in comparison.
They were sited on a large sofa drinking tea he purchased from the infinite shop.
"So, Leah are you the treasure spirit of the private plane world?"
He asked the most important thing right now.
He already suspected that she's the treasure spirit of the 'private plane world' but he wanted to hear it directly from her mouth.
[Yes, master, I am the treasure spirit of the 'private plane world' Leah.]
She replied enjoying the fragrant tea that cost him 10,000 credit points.
"If that's the case, then please enlighten me about this inner world."
He was keen to know more about the 'private plane world' and what's a better way to do that than ask the ego of the plane world itself.
Leah's always innocent and childish, actions and behavior was suddenly replaced, to that of a stern and serious one, as if she's a completely different person.
[The 'private plane world' is a fragment of a one's prospering 'prime reality' that been destroyed long ago from being sweep to a large-scale war where countless realities and powerhouses perished in the process.
This fragment aimlessly wandered all around the 'Limitless Expanse' without any prior destination for countless years until it naturally evolved into a reality level treasure.
Now called 'private plane world'.
Time moved ten times faster here compared to the outside world.
Unexpectedly, this fragment was also able to maintain it's state as a pseudo fragmented prime reality, the multitude of essence in the vicinity remained as it was back then.
Moreover, some great inheritance of the past forgotten era that remained untouched here, these inheritances can be found anywhere in this world.]
"Wait, did you just say, inheritance for a forgotten era, do you mean the era where this prime reality turned into a fragment?"
He tried connecting the dots trying to peer more information from this version of Leah.
[No, that isn't the forgotten era.
That era was called the abyssal era, the era where the abyssal dimension decided to wage a war against the primordial realities which brought upon great chaos throughout the whole 'Limitless Expanse'.
The era I am referring into is an era far older than the 'abyssal era'.
Forgotten era, is the term used when referring to eras that had long been forgotten where even the oldest of the oldest existences in the 'Limitless Expanse' hadn't had any knowledge of.
The record less era's.]
"Wait, how can such a thing possible, if there really was such inheritance left behind shouldn't the previous inhabitants of this one's prime reality excavated these inheritance grounds."
He couldn't believe that the people of this one's prime reality would just ignore such inheritances.
Moreover, he wouldn't believe that they hadn't discovered these supposed inheritance grounds.
[I didn't say that there were inhabitants in this one's 'prime reality' before it was destroyed and turned into a fragment.]
"So, there's none?"
[Not exactly…!
Even back in the abyssal era, this one's prime reality is just a newly discovered land.
The only inhabitants present here were beast and monsters.
The beast and monsters were so powerful that any other rising intellectual life forms were decimated even before they could establish a firm foundation.]
Listening to Leah's explanation, Kanzen couldn't help but look forward to what monsters lay beyond the safe zone.
"Inheritances, huh…! Sounds fun, I like to obtain this said inheritance."
[Unfortunately, master, you're currently too weak to even think of stepping out of the safe zone.]
He nodded.
He wasn't offended that Leah called him weak, he knew better his own worth, so he didn't bother with things such as pride.
[You were currently inside the safe zone.
The safe zone encompasses 100,000 miles (ca. 160,934 km) of circular area distance, this mansion being the center point of the safe zone.
When inside the safe zone, no threat will come to you.
But the moment you step outside, your safety wouldn't be guaranteed.]
"100,000 miles (ca. 160,934 km) that's quite expansive, it can fit dozens of kingdoms and empires, it's literally an entire continent."
"Leah, just how strong were the beast and monsters outside the safe zone?"
[Master, you're currently in Tier 2 in soul realm, while the most common beast outside the safe zone is Tier 6 in soul realm.
Each has enough power to brought upon apocalypse to lesser worlds…
The most powerful is a Tier 15 monsters and beast and there are about thousands of them scattered all around the place.]
"Ok, ok, I understand. You don't need to continue."
'My self-esteem had just been hit hard, it this what they called emotional damage.'
He thought with a bitter smile.
He looks at the distant horizon, recalling Leah's claims about the beast and monsters outside the safe zone, all the hairs in his body stood up, a sudden cold sweat run through his back.
"Outside the safe zone is a place too out of my league."
