Chapter 343 – The Planet’s Request

It can be resolved? Was the planet really going to do something for Chaos?
What was it going to even attempt to do then? What was the planet's plan with all of this?
It was a complete mystery… not even Chaos could tell what was within the mind of the planet.
But there was certainly a plan she had, something she intended to do.
"I am too weak, I have lost most of my power after dying against him… Despite having revived, this power is not even comparable to the one I had before… I am sorry but I cannot really help you. I have considered it and I will probably leave this planet… Even if I have to leave behind people that my allies had grown attached to…" sighed Chaos.
Chaos was rather realistic now, even with all the desires for revenge he had, he couldn't simply do something as unrealistic as attempting to kill a Great God of such incredible and overwhelming power as Valen.
The world's voice suddenly felt Chaos sorrow.
It made her feel rather bad.
Because they were connecting through a dream, she could even feel his emotions as much as he could feel hers.
He also felt bad for her, he had a strong sense of empathy.
But… he couldn't do anything.
He wasn't being ruthless or uninterested, he was simply being realistic.
And she knew he had reasons to not want to fight anymore, despite how deep down he really wanted to give it another try.
"Within you… there is… endless potential… Untapped powers that you have yet to awaken…" she said.
"Untapped… power?" asked Chaos.
Chaos was left speechless. He didn't knew he had such potential within him. He most of the time assumed he had to continue eating strong beings to gain power over time, but he already had a potential within him?
But… now that he thought about it, his soul was special, and even his physical body as well.
He was alive mostly thanks to these two things, and well, All-Devouring giving him the power to gain Skills that allowed his body to be alive even after being torn to pieces as a meatball with eyes and tentacles…
Without these Skills collected from various strange and bizarre lifeforms, Chaos wouldn't had been able to properly survive and would had died completely, perhaps his soul might had turned into a very weak ghost… or something.
Chaos began to think about his own powers and this untapped potential that the world's voice was talking about. Did it really meant that he had such amazing power deep within him?
He wondered if that could be the truth… he always thought that aside from the Unique Skills he had, there wasn't much to him other than abusing them.
"Can you tell me more?" asked Chaos.
"…Well, there is… something… within you… Your soul… You have noticed how… there's that?" asked the voice.
The voice asked about… how he didn't noticed there was something in his soul… Something she called "that".
Chaos was confused, he didn't understand what she meant by "that" and began to think that she might be thinking about something else but didn't knew how to pronounce it or something.
It was obviously wrong, he was wrong, that's it.
He simply didn't remembered that time because it was a very faint and confusing moment.
In that time, it wasn't just one entity that spoke to him, but three.
Khaos, the Galaxy Core of the Nyx Galaxy and… the Universal Core itself.
The Universe has a Core, and this core by itself is sentient as well, it is an overseer that even created the Universal Origin Records for some bizarre and unknown reason and did all the things it did for a reason.
This reason being… something unknown to Chaos.
But he does remember one time when they spoke to him, and things happened through the System… it was a weird time.
Could that had been? He just recalled it now amongst the many odd encounters he had ever had.
And indeed, it was.
"You've been gifted with… something special… and precious… You must… use that power… to your advantage and… unlock it's… it's capabilities…"
Chaos was once more reinforced of his theory, there was certainly something special within him, this something was what he was gifted in the past, a thing that could help him grow…
It was gifted to him by the Universal Core itself.
"The Universal Seed… You must make it… grow…" said the voice of the world.
"Is that what was gifted to me back then?" asked Chaos.
"…Yes. You cannot properly… make it grow now but… I can help you." Said the voice of the world.
"You really… can? And what powers could it offer to me?" wondered Chaos.
"…I don't really… know. But perhaps… things that might… help…" said the voice.
If Chaos could be assisted by the entire planet to unlock some power from within him, he was nobody to say no to her after all!
Without overthinking it, Chaos decided to accept her offer and the power of the world began to slowly flow into him without a second of delay.
FLAAASH!
"T-This…!" muttered Chaos in surprise.
"I will now attempt to forcefully use my World Source Energy as the stimulant for this Universal Seed to grow and germinate…" said the world's voice.
Her voice suddenly turned livelier, as if she had gone from rest mode to active mod, and had become more youthful as well out of the sudden.
Chaos noticed this but didn't pointed it out, as he continued to receive this mysterious power, that seemed to be slowly tearing apart his very soul, a painful feeling made his entire body and soul gibber…
"Unngh… Aghh…!"
"Please, bear with the pain…" said the world's voice.
Chaos felt as if streams of burning acid were rushing through the interior of his body, slowly burning, and destroying everything within him, all while reaching his soul and causing even more agonizing pain in that area.
The soul was a delicate area that always hurt more than other parts of the body, as it was incredibly sensitive to pain!
