[ 3. Lost Glory ]
"..."
Damien floated within the endless darkness, and saw the notifications displaying his third Wish Trial floating before his vision.
He had no words. He had nothing to say. Just confliction, and confliction alone.
From his memory, what was deep within this place was a monster called the Destiny Eater. When it made its appearance years later, it was a powerful god stronger than even god kings of some pantheons.
It could easily snatch their Destinies as well at that point. So it was normal to assume that at this stage, this guy was probably stronger than a high god at minimum.
Which brought his thoughts to churn. Normally, he would believe that it was a monster at the level of a noble god. His trials are always a level above the previous trial boss.
But this was rushed, and the rewards are too good to be true. The opponent is probably a level stronger than that.
'Not even Flint could do anything against it. An Ultimate Universal Law is leagues above what a mere Lesser Universal Law could compare to.' He thought.
The difference lay in the fact that, a Lesser Universal Law was as important and as powerful as a Galactic Core. Simply, it bestowed one the reserves to control their Galaxy by will.
Shaping it, changing its nature, powering it up, draining it, it was all possible. Of course, supplied by Divine power as the cost.
It could also be used to power up Abilities/Skills/Techniques to galactic sizes or galactic threats. A Universal Law was that important.
But then an Ultimate Universal Law was different in the nature that, it stood above universes. And not just one, but countless of them as we speak.
One could take it as the supplying source of multiple universes, whereby said god could shape them to their liking if they desired. And also pull upon its reserves of power and add it to their Abilities.
There was no filling up the gap. 'Which is why... I'd rather give up and come back another time. I'll just go back home earlier than planned–'
[ TING!!! ]
"..."
[ Congratulations!! You've done the absolute impossible thing to do for a mortal; defeating a demigod, twisting fate, elevated a Realistic grade treasure ]
[ Your path of Absolute has been opened for you. Your Cryptic Class, "The Absolute One", will be unlocked by 10% ]
[ To fulfill more conditions, continue to break through your limitations and do the impossible for your current standards, and become absolute among men ]
[ You've awakened 10% of your Cryptic Class, The Absolute One ]
"..."
Damien froze once more. This time around, he had no thoughts and just felt like something was off. As if someone was pitying him, and trying to subtly convince him to defeat the Destiny Eat.
[ The Absolute One (CRYPTIC) ]
[ Introduction: The Providence of one who will become the highest entity throughout Creation... Information Unavailable ]
[ Potential: Unrivaled Potential that stretches to cover the whole of Creation, and absolutely transcend all Restrictions, Rules and Mandates of Existence and stand beyond even Creation itself... Information Unavailable ]

[ Class Skills: "Absolute Transcendence" ]
[ Comment: A Class of sheer impossibility... ]
"..."
He read everything, and did not know how to feel. But at least, the Class Bonuses were far greater than what one could obtain from a Hidden Class.
Almost double what one could obtain from a Hidden Class.
And that Ability, no matter what he did, he could not obtain a clear definition of it. It just only stated that, 'Transcend your limits... Absolutely.'
Which he understood, and took to heart. But the matter still remains, should he stay, level up and fight. Or trust his gut feeling and leave?
"..."
Yeah, he's staying.
The rewards were amazing. And if there's someone who can manipulate his fate to this level, affecting even his Cryptic Class, it was probably stupid for him to go against them.
"It's probably the Primordial Source." He thought out loud, and began with a small action of leveling up across Realms.
"Level up to an Adept Profession." He commanded.
[ TING!!! ]
[ You have spent 6,500 units of Life Essence to Level up consecutively to an Adept Profession ]

"Hm. Not bad. Maybe there's a chance. A slight chance at success. Level me up all the way to the Second League." He added.
[ TING!!! ]
[ You have spent 28,300 units of Life Essence to Level up consecutively to a Master Profession ]
[ You have leveled up... You have leveled up... You have leveled up... You have leveled up... You have leveled up... ] (×2)

"Repeat. Level me up by Leagues. All the way to the peak of being a mythical warrior."
[ TING!!! ]

Once Damien reached the limit of his strength, he immediately summoned his Template to review the changes.
"..."
Even though he was prepared to welcome disappointment itself.
[ Name: Damien Gray ]
[ Mana: – (Nigh-Infinite) ]
[ Epithet(3): First Blood(Grand), Dragon Slayer(Myth-1), King Maker(Myth-1) ]

[ Stat Points: 1 600 || Ability Points: 1 201 ]
[ ??? Abilities(1): False Enigma(1) ]

[ Equipment(7): Mask of Gray(Unique), Wings of Endless Ash(Unique), Undaine Bear Coat(Unique), Null Blade(Unique), Night Walker(Unique), Devil Gown(Unique), Void Keeper(Unique) ]
He went through his Template, and as expected, he was greatly disappointed. Without his complete Class, there is no way his potential strength would increase.
[ TING!!! ]
[ ...We have an offer for you ]
"..."
Damien kept quiet, and stared at the notification that floated before him. He wanted to respond, but at thr sane time, he felt like it would be no good at all.
[ If you agree, we will unlock 10% of your Cryptic Class' overall potential ]
"Alright. What is it, I'm listening." He said, now intrigued all of sudden.
[ ...We believe you are aware of the ploy that we have made pertaining to you and the Destiny Eatet? ]
The Primordial Source said, and Damien easily nodded in agreement.
"Mhm."
[ Splendid. We would like you to forfeit the Destiny of the Destiny Eater, and the Destiny Spring it has fostered all these years. In exchange, we will give you and your friend a "Jade Diluted Syrum". What do you say? ]
"...First, what's that? Second, you are actually negotiating with me? A mortal?" Damien laid out his responses.
[ Is there perhaps a problem with respecting an anomaly like you? And the Jade Diluted Syrum is a nigh-outer grade resource, that can benefit anyone greatly ]
ραпdα nᴏνɐ| сom [ It permanently cleanses one's impurities, increasing their strength massively. The lucky ones could be cleansed completely, and have all their statistics increased by a thousand ]
"...I see. Why? What's so important about the Destiny of the Destiny Eater, and the Destiny Springs?" He asked.
[ We also have our plans and ideas. So far, we've respected you enough, and will also respect your response even now. So please think it carefully ]
"Alright." Damien nodded.
The current Primordial Source was still child like. The one he knew was arrogant and full of itself. The most pretentious bastards he had ever met.
But then again, dealing with this one was fun in itself as well. And the term "anomaly" appeared once more. 'Seems like it's an important aspect.'
