Chapter 349: Meeting The Origin Core

Chapter 349: Meeting The Origin Core

-----

Frank, accompanied by Orb, Gwendolyn, and Axitl reached the room where the World's Origin Core Avatar was located…

The door slowly opened as they were greeted by a little girl with sleepy eyes sitting over the bed, she was wearing a single white dress and nothing else.

The girl's eyes were monochromatic as one of them had crimson-red color and the other was yellow-gold. She had long silvery-white hair, silky white, and smooth skin, and she was completely flat. Frank noticed that in the middle of her forehead, there was a small white jewel, which was had been infected by the miasma, making it purple. Even after healing herself, this color still remained.

"There you are… How are you feeling?" asked Frank with a gentle smile, as the girl glanced at Frank expressionlessly.

"Hug…" she said, extending her arms.

Everyone was left speechless as the first words the Origin Core of this entire planet were that she wanted… a hug from Frank.

Frank felt moved by her request, as he quickly walked towards her, sat down at her side, and hugged her.

The Origin Core felt happy as she smiled a bit, rubbing her face over Frank's chest as she hugged him. She even deeply smelled his scent and used her little arms to tightly grasp his shoulders and muscles.

"Y-You like to hug?" asked Frank, feeling a bit nervous.

"I didn't know what a hug was until now, but it feels nice, so I like it," she said, smiling back at Frank.

"I see… How do you feel?" asked Frank with a gentle demeanor, as he gently caressed her head, which she also liked.

"Sleepy… I feel sleepy…" she said.

"Sleepy?"

Frank quickly used his senses to detect if there was something wrong with her, using his Divine Sense to actually see through her entire body, her body was strange, it wasn't exactly a physical body of flesh, but something similar to Axitl or Orb, made of Divine Soul which was materialized into a body, so she didn't possess many of the organs that would keep someone alive.

He noticed that the jewel in her forehead was her "real body" in fact, which supplied the rest of her body with energy.

The problem here was that she seemed to be slowly lowering in energy, she was getting sleepy because this jewel in her forehead was running out of divine energy… it seemed that she had done something strange which separated her from the real World's Origin Core, so she wasn't getting any supplement in energy.

"You're feeling sleepy because you actually… separated from the Origin Core, why?" asked Frank, as Gwendolyn, Axitl, and Orb watched in silence… although Orb was pouting with a bit of jealousy as she didn't like how clingy the new girl got… but she kept such thoughts for herself at the end.

"Oh… I did that because… I wanted to come with you… you freed me from my prison," said the girl.

"Prison… That crystal? Isn't that your body?" asked Frank.

"…It is. But it is not. I am… the consciousness of it, the soul, the spirit… I freed myself from my body, so now it contains no ego nor will," said the girl.

Frank couldn't believe what the girl said… it seemed that she was the actual mind of the Origin Core, all that made it intelligent was her! The Origin Core of Terra was left without ego nor a mind, like a mere rock filled with power. However, now that Frank was fused with it, he was able to control and maintain it, so it was mostly fine.

He felt a bit bad, thinking that he might have been the one that forced her to separate and do such a thing… It could be said that she is a piece of the Origin Core that got away with all its mind, leaving the entire other body without it…

In simple terms, it is as if you cut your head off and escaped with it, but the entire body you left was still alive and doing its natural functions anyways.

It was a bit puzzling, but that was how it was!

If it were to be possible that her true body, the jewel in her forehead, was a piece of the planet's Origin Core, then this most likely meant that she could have amazing power within!

Frank had to explain this to his three wives in detail, as they were unaware of all of this…

After around half an hour, he explained everything as detailed as possible, without making it overly complicated… yet, it was still a bit complicated.

But the girls managed to pull through.

"I-I see…" said Gwendolyn, although she was still figuring it all.

"So to resume everything you cleansed the world's origin core from the miasma inside and you found this girl inside… And then you rescued it from the miasma? And poof! She appeared after that… Which happened because she wanted to experience the outside world with you. But because she forcefully separated her mind from the main body, she's weakened now," said Orb.

"You got it pretty well, Orb! That's more or less what happened here…" said Axitl.

"So how do we name her?" wondered Gwendolyn.

"Name?" asked the girl.

"Hm. I had thought of Terra, just like the planet," said Frank.

"Oh, that sounds quite fitting," said Axitl.

"Yeah, it is good enough," said Orb.

"Terra is good…! I am Terra now!" said Terra, as she hugged Frank from behind, embracing his chest with her slender arms.

"Frank is very stiff…" she said, touching Frank's body, which was incredibly hard due to his high stats, making his muscles even harder than metals.

"Haha… It feels weird?" asked Frank.

"No… You're warm too," said Terra, rubbing her face over his back.

"I see that she really likes to rub herself on you…" said Orb.

"Didn't you do the same just a few hours ago?" asked Gwendolyn.

"Well, who doesn't like to cuddle with Frank? He's so cute too," said Axitl, petting Frank in the head.

"I am not a pet…" sighed Frank.
