Chapter 69 - Murphy's Law

Unbeknownst to anyone, Sakura's forceful descent used Adrian's blood and energy as a catalyst.

Meaning Sakura and Mora's short conversation caused Adrian to not only instantly become a husk, but also bear the brunt of the nine heavenly tribulations evaporating him silently.

Causing the absolute system to crazily absorb the leftover damage thanks to Adrian's new constitution.

As the Absolute System updated like crazy, the laws around the island increased temporarily to avoid dimensional overflow.

Unaware of anything happening, Mora awkwardly coughed talking to herself.

Unfortunately, the efficiency system was also forcefully suppressed by the island's laws.

In the Island's eyes, Adrian was technically still fully intact and ok and just taking a different form.

Consequently, Endurance's attempts to force Adrian's reformation one way or another, forced Adiran's atoms into the nearest host that was similar enough to house him.

Luckily, for it, the perfect host with the same bloodline just so happened to be nearby.

Clueless, Mora talked to the abyss unaware that every breath allowed Adrian's atoms and scattered energy to force its way inside her body.

Thanks to Mora's mythos ability, Murphy's Law, Endurance faced problem after problem until it found the tiniest crack in Mora's body allowing Adrian's reformation to begin.

As it did Mora's body instantly enlarged, as blood, flesh, bone, and lymph were forced outside of her body tearing and rupturing every inch of her body.

In a matter of seconds, Mora's body became a mass of viscera spread across a newly reformed Adrian's body.

As if to add insult to injury Adrian forced his God's breath into action before his destruction, however, it only just now activated absorbing all of Mora's biomass into energy and replenishing his body.

This process caused both of their Mythos bloodlines to synchronize, swallowing Mora's detached soul back into Adrian's mental realm.

Refreshed, Adrian yawned, stretching as he opened his eyes, ignorant to the horror Endurance just upon Mora.

Opening his eyes, Adrian quickly noticed Mora was missing and a new entity had appeared in his true realm.

The System interface, constructed from the effects of the Deus Ex Machina, DeM, program, counted this situation as a personality being reintroduction into the collective being known as Adrian.

Confused by the situation, Adrian sighed, "Guess once they're awake they are absorbed back into me? Well what can you do?"

Shaking his head, Adrian asked Sakura, "What happened after you showed up?"

The sad thing was that during the tragic reformation, Sakura had not yet to reawaken in her void thus making Mora the only person to know what happened.

Equally ignorant, Sakura shrugged, "I don't know. Let's just focus on finding the other personalities. Also you never told me there were female personalities!"

Cheekily, Adrian rescinded with, "You never asked. I would have answered any questions you had."

Annoyed, Sakura rolled her eyes, grumbling, "You never gave me a reason to ask!"

Noticing how unreasonable she sounded, Sakura tried to change the subject, pointing out, "Check the interfaces. Something seems strange."

Shrugging, Adrian wanted to tease her but was interested in what could have changed.

Upon opening both interfaces Adrian quickly found a plethora of messages.

The Nexus Interface:

[Error… Cancer Body cells affecting the Absolute system…]

[New Skill Added… Lesser Lightning Resistance Level 1]

[Damage accumulated Lesser Lightning Resistance level up]

[Maximum experience accumulated Lesser Lightning Resistance leveled up to the maximum evolution in progress]

[Lightning Resistance level 1 added]

[More experience unaccounted for… integer overflow announced]

[Offloading excess experience… Transforming excess experience into Evolution Points]

[Mission Update: 2/7 Members accounted for]

The DeM interface:

[Update: 1/6 entities returned]

[Too Far to Connect]

Confused and speechless, Adrian closed the Nexus interface's message playback feature and focused back on his main objective.

Meanwhile, back in Adrian's true realm, a seductive woman spawned at the temple's base.

Upon forming in this new place, the woman's mind replayed what just happened causing her to crumple to the ground holding her knees unwilling to breathe for fear of having to go through that again.

The first to notice this new familiar arrival was Zero.

Upon feeling this being's energy he instantly knew it was Mora, and rushed to the temple's base after noticing her panicked state.

Appearing fifty feet from Mora's crumpled figure, Zero's concern only exponentially increased.

However, as soon as he stepped an inch closer he felt suppressed by Mora's rabid aura and bloodline going insane causing him to land on his ankle snapping it.

Zero's sudden mad dash outside of the temple, left the kids confused, so they followed toward the temple's edge quickly noticing the person far below.

Fue, Qi, and Dee were the first to react to the familiar figure, instantly rushing down the stairs leaving Bemo alone and confused.

By the time the girls and Dee made their way to the ground, they quickly saw Zero suffering in silence as hazy purple veins were carved across his body.

Realizing what was happening, the trio stopped dead in their tracks.

Qi and Fue tried to calm Mora down, but their voices couldn't reach her, leaving only Dee to be able to do anything.

Flashbacks filled Dee's mind as he remembered the cruel and unusual events that would always happen around Mora unless she was in her healer mode.

Gulping, Dee shouted at Mora, "WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU, CALM DOWN!"

Hearing Dee's voice, Mora was shocked momentarily breaking her fixation on the memory and causing her to breathe in.

Upon taking that breath Mora freaked out, but thanks to her fixation being broken Wisdom could finally kick in, clearing her mind of pain and major anxiety.

Still shaking, Mora gasped repeatedly, taking in as much air as possible, purging the memory from her consciousness in the process.

With Mora's mental state slowly calming down, Zero was released from the effects of Murphy's Law.

Once her bloodline stopped interacting with Mora's, Zero's blood started to flow back in the correct direction claiming his bloodline from consuming his body as fuel.

Everyone sighed in relief seeing everything work out, however, Bemo still sat atop the temple clueless and confused.

At first, Bemo wanted to rush after everyone else, but his mind was consumed by moonlight telling him it was too dangerous to follow, so he sat down flopping his ear and twiddling his thumbs as he waited for his friends to return and play with him again.
