Chapter 10 - A New Friend or Family?

"Call it whatever I like? Could you elaborate on that, please?"

["What I mean is that you are not the ones to name it for everyone else, as some beings may defy your teachings or name as they dislike it; therefore, change its name to what they prefer. Or even some not even meeting you or not existing in the same world."]

"Alright, then, could you explain Alephs using the, I guess, multiverse we live in as an example?"

["An example for Alephs using the Multiverse is what's below it, an Infinite Set of Dimensions with lower worlds which people call Material Worlds each one above the other transcending the lower and seeing the lower as how you see your drawings and creations, And within each of those Infinite Dimensions existing below the Multiverse is another Set of Infinity inside of one part of the infinity, with this repeating for every part or dimension of the dimensions below the multiverse, each of those dimensions contain an Aleph as you call it, but also is a set of infinity, and a single number inside the set of infinity contains another set of infinity which goes on infinitely for every single number inside a set of infinity that is ever to exist."]

"Hmmm, that's fine. There's concrete proof it exists now. I'll learn more later. I need to cultivate it now."

Sitting down once more, I go through the information I had absorbed; by pure chance and some godly level of luck, I had landed on the section that involved the craft of alchemy in making pills that make my cultivation faster, Another being multiple forms of techniques and Abilities I could use with my Qi. Still, they were split, with some being long-range, using qi as a defensive more than offensive, while the others used pure martial arts and close quarters to enhance their bodies using qi and their cultivation level. The last corner was more history-oriented, which I initially sought; I wonder if this was some godly level of luck or some other intervening with my actions. Either way, I begin with the usage of another cultivation technique, which involves me breathing not just my nose and mouth but my entire body; the way it works is bizarre, but it still works and is highly effective, seeing as the Downgraded variant of mana continued to absorb into my body. I have reached the bottleneck of Core Formation. But if I broke through here, I would cause chaos, so I needed to go somewhere more secluded. Getting up from the couch, I leave the apartment complex and jump from building to building as people stare and start taking pictures and recording me. I didn't mind this; it was just harmless and could do nothing to me other than show me off to stronger people, so if they had nothing better to do, they'd probably come here to fight me, which could be worse now that I think of it. I continued going from building to building till I reached the start of a forest, and with that, I teleported to a random area deep within the forest and sat down; I activated the tribulation as the first thunder struck down, a fiery feeling came from it which I had realized and absorbed the thunder, the second one flew down even faster than the one before as I absorbed it as well, the third and fourth had been combined but had struck twice with it not only having boosted power but also doubled from the combination, it began causing a tingling feeling inside my body but still I had continued with absorbing it, once the next one came to strike down instead of trying to dodge the wildlife that flew above me it had gone through it instantly erasing it. The Sixth struck down and began causing pain in my body as I absorbed the tribulation; the Seventh struck down and caused the ground to burn. I had absorbed most of its energy, and my power had been boosted even more to the point I could feel as if I were about to break through. Finally, the last thunder from the tribulation struck down, and it began causing me to bleed out and even cough blood. Luckily, I could absorb all of the tribulations, and I had advanced into the Soul Condensing Realm; since I can shapeshift using magic to my past life, why don't I do that and skip this soul cultivation thing entirely? My body had begun shapeshifting into the desired form.

[A Lady, somewhat tall, about 8'4, had changed clothes into something an angel would typically wear, along with three pairs of wings on her back. Each one was feathery, and her hair had changed to white. With her clothes being pure white with some gold and her wings white as well, why did I look like this.]

"This feels fresh. Come to think of it. Why did I wear that tight dress?"

I could sense people now; people were approaching me, and their intentions were not good. And by the looks of it, their cultivation level was that of Divine Transfiguration, with only one at the foundation establishment; seriously, did this world get an overhaul or something? There are many strong people here; maybe there are even realms higher than the Chaotic Star Formation. I can check that later; as the people walked up, I noticed that Shiro was with them. I smiled, waving at her as I began talking.

"Oh, Shiro, how are you?"

They looked at me with surprise because of my looks; one of the men began blushing as I chuckled. I should act as if I were as naive as this life of mine. Or well, when I was Naive in this life.

"U-Uhm Hi...? May I know who you are?"

"Hey, maybe they need help and called your name, and someone else is following them." (Whisper)

I smiled at them as they began talking amongst themselves. Then they got closer and smiled, waving at me. It seemed they thought I was in trouble; after all, my hearing was enhanced with magic while they were talking.

"May I know your names? I know Shiro here."

"Oh, I forgot to introduce myself; I'm Shiro's Friend, Sora. This is Aki, and that is Hinata."

When he pointed toward his friends, the first one, Aki, looked more like a woman than a man. Still, it wasn't that hard to tell if you could cherry-pick what was different about him, that or he just had a larger [REDACTED BY The Pinnacle of Origin]; Whatever, Next was Hinata, who looked like a woman, which was obvious, she wore armor covering her body, at least it wasn't overly sexualized like others do it and defended her body from being attacked while not being heavy nor would it disrupt her from fighting, her hair was smooth, being the color of black with some purple tips on her hair, Sora was a tall boy about the same height as me, his hair was somewhat long for a man, though in the past men had exceptionally long hair for some reason. His hair was blond, and his eyes were glowing purplish as if he were using some ability on me, but just in case he was trying to gauge my strength and skills, I hid my aura, which I had just now noticed was spreading outwards, I realized this was the reason I got caught when I went into that sect.

"May I know why you all are here? You know it's dangerous out here, children."

I had to act like my old self; otherwise, if I ran into someone like Abel or Noah, they might think I was a phony and try to kill me. Speaking of them, I wonder how they're doing right now; after all, I did cause a giant flood back then.

"Don't worry; we are strong enough to withstand attacks that are strong enough to destroy entire Islands!"

I chuckled as they talked about how much damage they could do.

"Well, that sounds dangerous, but things are still stronger than that. You know that, right, even like my friend, Gu Fei Yang. Also, I just remembered that I had to introduce myself. I am Eve Genesis, but you can also call me Eve."

"Gu Fei Yang is your friend? What a nice joke; he's long dead. If you mean when he was alive, he was one of the greatest people alive, even when he could not reach immortality. But people still respect him, which shows his impact on this world."

I looked at them with a smile as they spoke about him kindly. Looking towards the sky, I thought of the past, how cruel and bloody it was, at least for this body of mine I took the form of. Seeing it calmed down and him having stopped potential wars, conflicts, and many other problems made me smile; I liked the feeling of Peace, yet at the same time, I was the one creating chaos, killing those people; it was clear that my personality is not what I think it is even though it is my own, I wish to stray from the chaos I create, instead create Peace. After all, it is my fault these humans have become genetically coded to cause destruction to what is around them, but then again, it is not just humans, but other races as well, like the one I've seen before. After all [REDACTED READERS SHALL LEARN LATER COME BACK AT A LATER DATE] Ah... Those times were fantastic. I wish I could return to them, but sadly, that place is unreachable for this world. Whatever, I'll think about that later.

"I-It was nice meeting you, Eve, but we must continue hunting monsters. After all, we are still students."

"It's alright; you can go ahead and finish what you need to; I wish you all the best of luck."

I smiled at them as they walked past me, having more of a smile on their faces from the talk, albeit it wasn't that much, and some misunderstandings here and there. It still brightened their day.

I continued going through the forest, just seeing how clean it was compared to my world, which was going to be ruined from what we did to it; it saddened me, and I wondered what they were doing there when I left.

Suddenly, a giant beast about my level jumped on top of me, pushing me to the ground. I looked at it as it began licking my face; it looked like this body still had the friendly aura it had before.

"Hey! Calm down"

I told it to stop and calm down while chuckling a little; as it stopped, I got up and began petting its head; I kept forgetting how tall this body was. A smile grew on my face as I thought of recreating the Peace before [He] Decided to trick my husband into eating that.

"Now, what to do? Do you have anything I can do? Or can you not disguise yourself."

The creature looked at me before nodding; it looked like a mixture of multiple animals, like a chimera. Its giant body was shapeshifted into a woman with fur, and her clothing covered her entire body as if it were some dress. Of course, she was more significant than me; they always have to be. I sighed, looking somewhat annoyed and unamused, as they chuckled, noticing my reaction.

"Don't be annoyed, Mother, I can change its size, so I just kept it like this so people don't suspect that I'm a man like others would suspect you to be one."

She annoyed me even more as I ran after the girl for insulting me. She ran away, trying not to get hit while laughing.

"TELL ME YOUR NAME SO I CAN START BEATING YOU!"

"My name is Astral!"

She chuckled as I continued running after her and began catching up, but I stopped for a second and sighed. Looking at the situation, I had also started laughing for a little. I should let go of my destructive side and instead create Peace.
