Chapter ?694 The Changes [2]
A sun shone brightly in the sky.",
Not the two orange suns everyone was familiar with.",
But a white sun.",
Then it exploded into a burst of light.",
The bright white light filled every inch of the solar system and traveled to every nook and corner.",
No one realized what it was.",
No one knew why this happened.",
But most of all, no one knew what they had to do.",
"W…What is that?" Sovereign Julius floated above a planetoid as he stared at the white sky.",
He wanted to teleport to the 'sun', but he had no idea where it was.",
The whole sky turned white. Even the two suns couldn't be seen.",
"…Is this related to abyssals?" Julius doubted they could pull off such a feat.",
But under the white sky, there was one thing he felt.",
One thing he was sure that everyone else was also feeling.",
"Why…?"",
… …",
"Why do I feel so small…?"",
On Uranus, Irene Nial looked at the sky with a confused gaze.",
She felt like was standing in front of a higher entity. Someone that didn't belong to the same league.",
She didn't feel any threat or danger from it. Yet, something deep inside her seemed to be scared to even stare at the light.",
Biting her lip, she called into her comm.",
"F-Find out what it is about!" Without her noticing, her voice trembled.",
The astronomers across the solar system were ordered.",
"W-White…" The abyssal astronomer reluctantly tore his gaze away from the instrument and replied.",
"White? I asked you what the fuck is that?" Despair Queen growled at the elderly abyssal.",
"I…I can't see anything. Entire space had gone whit—wait!"",
"What happened?"",
… …",
"The light is going away…" The astronomer in the hologram said to Sovereign Ares.",
Ares didn't reply.",
He stared at the bright white light that was quickly disappearing.",
Like receding tides, the white light vanished in mere seconds.",
Then, when everyone sighed in relief, a wave of aura exploded.",
Boom!",
… …",
It was as if the aura everywhere in the solar system had exploded.",
Everyone felt like they were punched in the stomach and got knocked out of breath.",
Clutching their stomach, humans and abyssals alike sucked in rapid, short breaths.",
With fearful eyes, they stared at the sky, waiting for the next thing to arrive.",
Solar System shaking, a bright white light filling the world, a burst of aura felt in every corner of the space...",
…What next?",
It was as if the unknown entity had enough fun, nothing strange happened afterward.",
… …",
A glowing white sphere descended into the ghost ship and landed in front of Varian and Sia.",
With a tense expression, Varian approached the sphere.",
Tap! Tap!",
With each step he took, he could feel the unique sensation of the light.",
Ancient.",
Something far older than civilization itself.",
And…",
Unique.",
Something that wasn't even supposed to exist in the first place.",
'Is she alright? I felt her aura dropping in the last moments…' If Sarah was harmed, Varian wouldn't be able to forgive himself.",
This incident also caused him to question if it was really alright to trust someone completely.",
He should've been more careful.",
'How is she…?' Varian stood in front of the white sphere.",
He didn't touch it out of fear that he might mess something up.",
But he tried to peer inside the bright white light.",
…He couldn't see anything.",
"Sia, can you…?"",
"I can't sense anything either." Sia shook her head.",
"Fuck." Varian cursed under his breath.",
'System, how is she?' His voice was filled with anxiety.",
The System which decided to remain silent realized that if it didn't speak up, it'd really piss off Varian. So, it said.",
[She's perfectly safe.]",
Varian was about to sigh in relief when—",
[She is being reborn.]",
'A baby Sarah?' Varian's face turned weird.",
[No. Her talent previously rose as a result of Sia's blood essence. Her talent surely was higher than before, but it was never truly hers.",
The blood essence she took aided her in progressing faster. Neither she nor anyone was able to assimilate Sia's blood essence.",
On a fundamental level, Sarah's talent didn't change. She was using the talent of the blood essence.",
It's even possible for Sia to take back that talent by reabsorbing her blood essence.]",
Varian's brows furrowed and a thought flashed in his mind. Keeping it aside for another time, he focused on the current situation.",
'What now?'",
[It's mainly the Primordial Blessing. It assimilated both your and Sia's blood essence into her. Even the traces of the sliver powers assimilated into her.",
She now has a body that can control the power of six slivers.",
In doing so, she seemed to have acquired a special physique of sorts.",
The first in the history of the universe.]",
'Ugh, she's kind of a big deal now, is that what you're saying?' Varian preferred simple language.",
[Yes.]",
'Cool!' Varian fist-pumped and cheered.",
Then, he explained everything to Sia.",
"So, she'll wake up soon?" Sia glanced at the white sphere with a bit of worry.",
"Yep. It'll take some time for her to adjust, but she'll be waking up soon. We just wait." Varian said with a confident expression.",
The last bit of worry on Sia's face dissipated and she clapped her hands. "She got a body or talent that's first in the universe? That's awesome! Let's give it a good name."",
"Don't even think about it." Varian waved his hand and said.",
"Hm?" Sia stared at him and raised a brow.",
"My naming sense is more than enough to give a perfect name." Varian chuckled with a smug smile.",
"…" Sia looked at him with pity.",
"Why are you looking at me like that?"",
"Someone who names their ghost 'Boo' is talking about naming sense. I don't know what to say."",
"I smell jealousy." Varian's smile turned smugger and he patted his chest. "It's not something everyone has. Don't worry though, I'll name our kids."",
"K-Kids…?" Sia was first dumbfounded at first before she fiercely shook her head. "Don't even think about it. They'll curse you for eternity if you name them."",
"…Tsk. Petty woman. I'll name the kids with Sarah then." Varian clicked his tongue in annoyance after realizing Sia didn't have the great taste as he did.",
Sia's lips twitched and her shoulders trembled as she imagined Sarah calling her kids weird names. 'Moo, go to school.' 'Spoon, it's time for breakfast.'",
As she was about to bicker, the sound of a mirror cracking rang out.",
They swiftly turned to see cracks appearing on the white sphere.",
Then, the aura burst, and the sphere vanished with a blinding light, causing Varian and Sia to shield their eyes.",
Varian slowly opened his eyes after a moment and his jaw dropped.",
Beside him, Sia was also gawking.",
As if a scene from a painting, a stunning beauty stood in front of them.",
A beauty out of the world.",
Icy blue eyes that hooked the soul, silky golden hair that flowed down to her waist, a face that could cause wars, and a voluptuous milky white body that was the very epitome of perfection.",
Sarah blinked twice seeing the shocked expressions of Sia and Varian.",
"Hey?" Her soft and melodious voice rang out and the two reacted and broke away from the trance.",
"S-Sara…" Sia stuttered as she pointed at her chest with a trembling finger.",
"Huh?" Sarah titled her head in confusion. Even that simple action was too breathtakingly beautiful.",
"Y-Your…" Sia didn't seem to know how to say it. Rather, it was as if she was dumbfounded by something.",
In confusion, Sarah turned to Varian and saw him staring at her with a grave expression.",
"Varian?" She called his name softly.",
Varian took a deep breath and glanced at her from head to toe as if he was burning the sight into his memory.",
'I-Is there something wrong?' Sarah was growing worried when Varian suddenly gave her a thumbs up.",
"The aura must have obliterated them earlier, which I'm thankful for...I mean, you don't have any clothes on."",
"WHAAT!"",
