Infinite Mana in the Apocalypse

The vast Letalis Expanse was eerily quiet at this time, the progeny of the Ancient Terror living within sensing the winds of change as they knew something was coming!

These were the only creatures of the Novus Galaxy to sense anything amiss, with only a few others in the Light and Dark Expanse being able to notice something. Some of these beings included Old Man Inuit and Fritz, who had some proficiency in the laws of Karma and Fate as they recently felt a sense of foreboding that came and passed infrequently!

Old Man Inuit had asked Noah about this just to be sure, and Noah had told him that it was not anything for them to worry about, not revealing the shocking truths behind what was to soon happen.

Since they were not strong enough at this moment, Noah wanted to let the beings of the Novus Galaxy continue to expand their skills and increase their power, as they could fight all they wanted in the future!

As long as he and the Novus Galaxy succeeded in their scheme the next few days, it would set up for a grand future where wars for the beings of the Novus Galaxy to join would only be an inevitability. When this time came and they were sufficiently strong enough, he would let them freely fight as much as they wanted.

At this moment though, his figure appeared in an unstable location in the Letalis Expanse where one could feel a dreadful amount of Aether dancing around, Noah actually coming to the location where the Cthulhu was normally stationed as he prepared to intercept whoever came.

RUMBLE!

The Cthulhu felt his presence as its star-sized red eyes opened slightly, only turning into slits before they closed fully thereafter as if it did not even want to glance towards Noah!

Noah smiled at this as he saw the majesty of the Terror of Aether while also understanding its emotions. Made for the purpose of protecting the Novus Galaxy, yet its Master continued to conduct unexplainable things over and over again until now, an unknown force was coming towards them because of it.

Even after listening to the Novus Galaxy, the Cthulhu still kept to its belief that they did not need to provoke the hornets' nest, and they could have continued peacefully while slowly amassing their strength to only protect themselves if they needed to! This was why the Cthulhu did not look favorably towards Noah, even with the knowledge that he was this Galaxy's chosen Champion!

There was a stark silence in the dreadful space filled with Aether as Noah looked like a grain of sand in the starry space when next to the star sized Cthulhu.

"..."

"Can you not go patrol somewhere else?"

The Cthulhu's words were unruly as even while knowing full well that it was speaking to the Galaxy's Champion, it showed its distaste as its numerous tentacles wriggled dangerously. Noah let out a light laugh at the words of this being he adopted the power of through the Terror of Aether Skill Tree, replying as his eyes stared at the blank space all around them until they landed on the boundary of the Novus Galaxy far away.

"I wanted to be next to someone I admired. Your abilities got me where I am today."

"Hmph."

The red star sized eyes of the Cthulhu opened as they showed the immense power within, its rumbling voice sounding out again.

"Another one of me is not nearly enough to stop whatever you all invited towards us."

"I am not just another one of you, though."

Noah replied quickly as he looked into the huge eyes of the Terror of Aether that took up the surrounding hundreds of miles, his voice continuing to ring out.

"The first Trait holder in the Novus Galaxy, the first natural Grand Controller, the first to hold multiple completed universal law comprehensions…"

RUMBLE!

Noah listed out his achievements as the eyes of the Cthulhu shone with a red light, listening silently before they turned towards the starry space above them!

"Even with all that, even if you win...her plan is simply…"

The red light in the eyes of Cthulhu intensified as it thought of the apparent plan that Noah was told not too long ago. This plan of the Novus Galaxy was truly a terrifying one, with many hidden things that were not revealed even until now.

They very closely dealt with whatever Outsiders came searching for the signal they sent out, and it was actually tied even closer to Traits!

To understand exactly what was in store, one must grasp what a Trait actually meant.

The origin of Traits stemmed from a Galaxy towards its inhabitants, where a single being would only ever hold a single Trait throughout their lives. Yet the Novus Galaxy wanted a Champion who held multiple Traits, a being that could look down upon any enemies that came with extreme strength.

Noah recalled the words of the Novus Galaxy as he floated near the baleful area of Aether next to the Cthulhu.

[To do this, to even have the possibility of making this plan possible, I will need the origins of the powerful beings that are hopefully from another Galaxy. If they are powerful entities from the Chaotic Void, it would be a failure as we would have to try again, given that we survive that entity of course.]

RUMBLE!

The terrifying plan of the Novus Galaxy was revealed at that point as one could feel a maddened hunger for power and survival, a hunger of a being that had undergone multiple cycles of destruction and rebirth! This hunger was caused by the fact that this entity did not want to go through it again!

Such a plan bordered on the extreme, and it was the reason why Cthulhu disagreed with it! Yes...Noah actually found himself looking forward to it as he thought of the many unknown possibilities.

They were simply too many wondrous things in this Galaxy, and in the larger unexplored Universe that he had yet to step out to. As he accomplished his trait of Infinite Mana, his eyes were looking towards even grander horizons that he had yet to even see as he wondered just what else was out there!

As for whatever the released signal would call towards them? Well, he was getting ready for this as well as even at this moment his clones were working hard to push another Skill Tree into the rank of Nebula. But in the coming battle, all he wanted to do was freely go rampant as he utilized his Trait to the fullest! He wanted to spam whatever enemy acting against them to death! He wanted to do many things as he sought to see the limit of where he could reach with the power he held.

"I really think it will all be fine."

Calm words rang out in the space filled with Aether as the eyes of the Cthulhu locked towards Noah's extremely small figure, the eyes trying to see behind this being that the Cthulhu had sensed multiple times when he was just a fledgling!

Cthulhu stared at this creature as he saw a devilishly handsome and confident smile appear on his face, a smile that actually caused the powerful Cthulhu to feel an unknown sense of pressure!
