A year later, Lena and Magna properly adapted their will powers and began training using the Primordial Omega will power technique.
During that time, Noah had already brought his two will forces up to level three.
Unlike conventional Mech will power techniques, which stored will power in an organ or body part, the Primordial Omega will power technique formed a will power core on the right side of the chest.
This new core was directly connected by countless nerves and used these to pump will power throughout the body.
The core had countless will power runes that formed the Omega character on its surface.
To better understand level three will power, Noah spent his time training by piloting a small five meter Mech that he used to adapt to piloting them.
Although he had no real experience fighting using Mechs, he didn't mind.
A month later, Magna and Lena entered level one willpowered energy machinist.
And so, the next three years passed.
Due to the slow increase in the energy machinist willpower rank, the Mech willpower cultivations of the three of them lagged quite a bit.
If it were not for the fact that they wanted to develop their two willpower at the same time, they would have already penetrated level five Mech pilots a year ago.
Now, the three of them reached the maximum rank four of energy machinists.
During this time, Noah also transferred the King Kemoyin's pupil technique to Nexus along with the information he remembered about the other power levels of the Magus world along with the information about the way of the gods provided by the lady of the lake for him to create a new soul cultivation technique that did not require King Kemoyin's lineage.
Nexus used this data and supplemented it with the soul information gathered by the night elves and the Tong Xuan kingdom to begin deducing the new technique.
Currently, the counter indicated that it was still more than two years before the new technique could be created but Noah didn't care.
He didn't plan on training his soul to become a true soul until he started his grand Genesis plan and apparently, with the time he would spend on this world and possibly other worlds, he wouldn't mind if Nexus spent another 100 years analyzing.
A month later, the three of them entered energy machinist level five.
In Noah's mind space, everything was dark.
The Omega imprint let out humming noises from time to time, illuminating the place with a soft light from time to time.
Suddenly, all the willpower, which was like a dense fog spread all over the mental space, began to gather in a single point, as if it had been sucked into something.
The small dot grew as it sucked in the surrounding willpower as it took the shape of a strange crystal marble.
As the last wisp of willpower entered the marble, the marble let out a whirring sound before it began to shrink and spin.
With each revolution, the marble shrank more and more.
When the original marble returned to the size of a small dot, it suddenly exploded into pieces.
What was left of the original marble was a tiny spark that glowed with an extremely faint golden light.
It seemed fragile but strangely did not go out, instead, it began to glow brighter and brighter.
Little by little, it grew from a tiny spark to form a small golden flame.
When the golden flame was fully formed, a jolt ran through Noah's body before he opened his eyes wide.
In them, a small golden fire could be seen reflected.
Noah stepped into his mental space and looked at the small golden flame.
This was the same flame that an Eldrtch had to form to begin forming his trueself.
It was the flame of will.
Since Noah had merged both paths into one, the energy machinist path and the eldrtch path, now his new path shared similar traits with both paths.
Unlike the eldrtch path, the path Noah created relied solely on himself and did not require the help of either Azatoth or ordinary people to provide him with emotion power.
This made the color of his will flame a golden color, unlike the will flames of the Eldrtch, which was a dark color.
Now what he had to do was to feed this small flame to its limit so that he could turn it into a trueself.
Once the trueself is formed, even if its soul and body are completely destroyed, it will still be able to exist in pure will form since the trueself is the one that would carry its ego instead of its soul.
Now that he reached level five as an energy machinist, it was time to advance as a Mech pilot.
A strange force field surrounded his body as he meditated.
With a boom, his body released a great pressure.
The magnetic field that formed around him began to wreak havoc on the ground, causing him to sink slightly.
Noah deactivated it before standing up.
Now that he reached level five, he needed specific resources to advance to the next level.
But first, he had to go find his pet.
After feeling around for a moment, he opened a portal to an icy cave with frost all over it.
He looked around the place in confusion before focusing on a huge cocoon of frost in the middle of the cave.
Frowning, he approached the cocoon. He could feel that Ouroboros was inside the cocoon.
"It should be because of his evolution. But a simple evolution shouldn't have caused such a huge transformation in this cave."
Noah let his soul leave his body and enter the spiritual sea of Ouroboros.
He found Ouroboros' spiritual projection curled up in a corner as he slept soundly.
Not wanting to disturb him, she let him sleep and immersed herself in his spiritual sea as she reviewed Ouroboros' memories from the time she left him until now.
He found that the last few years were pure blank space, with no memories at all.
Only when he came to the memories of the first year was he finally able to grasp the situation, realizing that because he got into the biochemical pool and somehow made his body mutate, the energy required for evolution more than doubled and because the cold energy of the cave was completely consumed, Ouroboros' evolution was interrupted and his body, to protect itself, froze itself.
Now that he was here, he could solve this problem quite easily.
He first stuck the ice cocoon in his magic gourd before he started looking for caves of white rainbow stones with the help of a radar.
Half an hour later, he blew up a stone wall in front of him before entering a cave with white rainbow stones on its walls.
Leaving the ice cocoon to absorb the cold energy of the place, Noah waited for a couple of days before returning to find another cave.
He kept repeating the same procedure for a month before the cocoon finally stopped absorbing cold energy.
Now all that was left was to wait for Ouroboros to wake up on its own.
Putting away the ice cocoon, Noah teleported to the surface before transforming into a scarlet eagle, a typical radiation circle monster, and flying towards a particular direction while the Omega symbol on his forehead pulsed slowly.
In its beak, it held a strange-looking key.
This was the insignia of an energy machinist and only with this tool could he enter the place where he was currently headed.
As for how he got the key, he simply asked Nexus to synthesize one for him and Lena and Magna.
Several days later, he saw in the distance a huge metal castle floating in the air as it was being carried by a huge flock of birds of different breeds.
There were eagles, seagulls, hawks and a host of other birds.
The only thing common among them were the translucent strings attached to their legs.
Although it seemed that these birds were dragging the huge floating castle, in reality the castle had its own levitation system and the birds only served the function of guiding the way the castle would travel.
From the lower part of the castle, a column of green light projected directly to the ground.
Around the site, there was a long line of people, all of them power machinists.
Noah stood a little ways away before regaining his original form before pulling Magna and Lena out.
Then the trio proceeded to seal all their energies except for the willpower of energy machinists.
If three level five individuals suddenly emerged in their two willpower and without any background it would be too conspicuous.
Noah put his key around his neck and the other two did the same, putting on their keys so they would be easy to see.
Then they approached the line and waited their turns to pass through the column of green light.
That column of light was actually a teleporter and the only way to enter the interior of the traveling castle.
An hour later, it was the turn of the three of them.
The three of them showed their keys to the one in charge of doing the verification.
"Hmmm... Jonas Dalton, 20 years old, hailing from Dark Cloud city of the Blackboard region, level five energy machine? Level five!?"
The man in charge of the background check looked at the data pad in front of him in amazement before looking back at Noah.
To reach level five willpower at the age of 20, one had to be a monstrous genius.
Unlike the willpower of a pilot, the willpower of an energy machinist required much more time and usually only those geniuses from more prominent energy machinist families would have such a genius in their midst.
"Excuse me, is there a problem?"
"Ahem... No nothing, here is your key, please come in dear machinist."
The man adopted a more cordial and respectful attitude before handing Noah his key.
Obviously, the background information in the database was false, though not entirely.
Noah had already made the arrangements many years ago.
He had kidnapped three siblings of an ordinary family from a random town.
After a fruitless search, the authorities declared them missing.
Now, Noah had used the identities of those three as a cover.
As for the fact that their faces looked nothing like the original people, there were plenty of excuses he could use to explain this point.
The backstory he came up with to explain the fact that the three of them suddenly appeared as level five energy machinists was that since they were young a mysterious master had taken an interest in them and passed on his teachings on the way of an energy machinist.
A few years ago, they suddenly received a message from their master to flee their hometown as a mysterious enemy might try to kill them.
During all this time, the three of them were supposedly increasing their levels to search for their master who is currently missing.
A story that although it would not convince some people due to some loopholes, was at least valid.
As for what they should answer if someone asked them why they appeared now, that was such a common thing that no one would bother asking that question.
Upon reaching level five, simple training would no longer serve to advance further and different types of resources would be required.
Among them, the most important was the planetary core, a necessary item to advance to level six.
Noah entered the pillar and was immediately teleported inside the castle.
On the other side, the background checker stuck Magna's key into a device that started scanning her information.
"Luke Dalton, 19 years old, hailing from Dark Cloud city of the Blackboard region, level five energy machine..."
The guy's mind went blank for a memento before he looked at Magna and asked.
"Excuse me, what is your relationship with the gentleman who just passed by?"
"He's my older brother."
Magna replied matter-of-factly.
"And this is my twin sister."
The background checker turned his head to look at lena and asked.
"She's..."
"She's also on level five."
...
...
...
"What!? All three are level five!?"
The guy started to sweat, he thought this trio of siblings must be from some kind of big family and started to remember if he had offended them in any way.
Magna grabbed her key and passed before Lena handed her key to the attendant, who just nodded in boredom as he saw that Lena was barely 19 according to the data.
"Miss Maria, here's your key."
"Thank you!"
Lena smiled at the attendant as she picked up her key before teleporting away.
"I must send this information to the lady quickly."
The attendant attached the three ID files and mailed them to someone.
