Infinite Mana in the Apocalypse

A destruction of a Dimension with a blink of their eyes!

Such an action gave a glimpse of the power of Primordials as when Noah heard it, his eyes flashed with intense light!

"If I wasn't careful enough, they would have decimated everything I held dear as if I didn't have the tools that I have...the tools of the Great Usurper, even I wouldn't have survived."

…!

The words of the Antiquity caused many thoughts to swirl in Noah's mind as all he got from this was that this being was so much a cockroach that he survived against a killing strike of a Primordial.

Was it clones? Other bodies? Just what from this Great Usurper granted this being such capabilities?

But his questions would have to wait for later as the monologue of the Antiquity continued.

" I am growing my power and stretching across Cosmos and Dimensions to become capable enough to take on these terrifying beings, to be able to stand up to them as those gaze of looking at everything as if they were mere ants...I want to erase those gazes from their faces."

WAA!

"The Primordials took something else extremely important to me when I said no to them...they took the System they granted to me as months later, I've barely been able to re-establish a semblance of it!"

'Hmm?'

Noah's ears pricked up when he heard the mention of a System, but his words nonetheless came out calmly as he regularly checked his churning destiny and fortune.

"This seems more like a you problem. I have no issues with the Primordials. In fact, they just handed me a free Primordial Heart just now!"

His sharp words caused the Antiquity's eyes to shine sharply as after a few seconds passed, he posed a certain question.

"What System do you have? What made you who you are currently?"

"..."

What System did Noah have? Unlike the original inhabitants of the Dark Universe and Primordial Cosmos, his world stemmed with a game like system that allowed them to change the nature of their defeated enemies into Cores and skill books!

It was just the changing of their Origins and what they accumulated into their lives into other quantifiable forms, and this came in the form of Cores, skill books, and even skill points.

But all of it was made possible from Noah's homeworld utilizing the might of a Cosmic Treasure!

Even Noah's Infinite Mana...it began as a Trait that wasn't truly what its name said, with it being made possible through Noah drawing large amounts of Mana from the world he was connected to, and then later to the worlds and Galaxies he was connected to.

But thereafter...he actualized this Trait and made it something that didn't rely on anything- just purely the Trait and what its name stated!

But even this was also done with the aid of a Cosmic Treasure.

As he went through this thought process, Noah pondered of any outside influence aside from the one he knew...and came to a certain conclusion!

"I made me who I am, nothing else. All the tools I used, I only obtained through hard work and perseverance!"

"...so a pie didn't just fall from the sky and land on your lap? An undeserved cheat or system that made you exceed all others?"

"..."

The question of the Antiquity caused Noah to squint his eyes before he replied.

"I worked to make my strength to the stage that it is. Even the descent of the Primordial that handed me a Primordial Heart- it was through my actions that she was called down!"

"As for where I get my source of strength...nobody can take that away from me. Not even the Primordials."

WAA!

His figure was unconsciously bathed with a golden glow as he spoke, the Antiquity's consciousness sighing before it spoke out somberly.

"They already have their eyes on you. If you haven't become their tool, they will make you one. What will you do when they come to you exactly as they came to me? When they ask you to put your life on the line for them?"

"What would you do about the Primordial Beasts that want to devour Universes and Cosmos to return things to what they once were, or the Primordials that just want to expand their dominion and power across multiple realities?"

…!

Yes!

This was an important question to be pondered, and one that didn't have an easy answer!

Who should one side with?

There were the Primordial Beasts that were a force of nature, trying to unravel branching realities and return them to the Original one. But...this would mean the destruction of an uncountable number of Multiverses, Cosmos, and Dimensions as it was the deaths of beings numbers couldn't even begin to put into picture.

But that...was the natural order.

Then there were the Primordials that caused all of these branching realities in the first place, and to keep them active without being destroyed- they were battling the Primordial Beasts and even spreading out their influence across many Dimensions to raise Champions to withstand their enemies.

These existences didn't do this compassionately, but they did this to keep the 'lands' they controlled alive and well as they continued to reap the rewards of their dominion across a myriad of realities.

Against all of this...what choice would one even make?

"What I would do, huh? If that time ever comes…"

His body was suffused with a golden glow as he looked extremely domineering, and he was letting out a tyrannical light that seemed to oppress the surroundings!

"The Primordials that caused a myriad of branching realities, the Primordial Beasts that want to destroy these realities and bring things back to the natural order, and even the so called tools or Champions in between...no matter what is in play, all I have to do is put these existences under me."

RUMBLE!

"Whether it be the Beasts, Champions, or Primordials...I will just dominate them and put them all under my feet. Then, I can be the one to decide how things will go. That will naturally solve all problems."

…!

Ah!
