Void Evolution System

Chapter 1441 Enlightenment [2]

Damien didn't see it coming.

He hadn't done anything particularly noteworthy to prompt enlightenment, so he was wondering just as much as anybody else why it came now.

But regardless of the "why," it was here.

When Damien sat down at the creek, his eyes instinctively closed, and his mind was subtly pulled away from reality.

Something about the moment was perfect.

In the midst of so much chaos, finding peace was a special thing. Damien didn't feel it because he never acknowledged temporary peace as real peace, however, he couldn't deny the feelings in his heart.

That peace was what led to the current situation.

Damien felt the power of "order."

Order, the opposite of chaos, was one of the concepts that governed the world.

Order and chaos didn't have their own laws. They were more like compilations of several laws that embodied a concept, so there wasn't an individual who could wield their power directly.

However, they were always subtly influencing the world.

Order was important. So was chaos.

If chaos represented for freedom and choice, order was the opposite.

That didn't mean it was a bad thing.

Order and chaos were always necessary together. Complete chaos would turn into madness, while absolute order would become a soulless society.

In a way, the Divine Order and the Straea Clan could be used as examples of them when they reached their worst.

But just as they could become terrible without regulation, when they were in their perfect forms, they allowed life to adapt and progress properly.

Void Palace was a picture of order right now. Everything went as it should, and chaos didn't have much of a place outside the things it was necessary for.

Being in this environment after being surrounded by chaos for such a long time, Damien suddenly became enlightened.

The concept of order.

He didn't know what it was before now, but information about it was steadily flowing into his head.

And it wasn't something simple.

No, the concept of order was one of the six concepts of Existence that Damien was supposed to master.

He just didn't expect to find it within himself before finding it in the wild.

The concept of order was actually meant to come before the concept of harmony.

Harmony and order acted together, but in reality, order always came first.

Damien learned the concept of harmony to perfection with the help he got from the Unrecorded. He wasn't supposed to have that comprehension, though.

He went in the wrong order, so, as he continued to live and experience life with the concept of harmony inside him, order naturally manifested.

In terms of Existence, if harmony was a method of controlling Existence, order was the prerequisite to do so.

It didn't have much power on its own, but it was the perfect support.

With order, Damien could actually take the first steps to controlling Existence Mana, since harmony really only gave him more ways to use what he had.

Damien's brain expanded.

Once again, he was barraged with knowledge about Existence itself.

The scene was similar to what the Unrecorded showed him.

A world completely influenced by a single entity's will.

The concept of order taught him how to tame the untamable.

In essence, he could use his own power to accomplish something similar to what the Void could do.

He could calm the chaos with his existence. He could turn those disorderly forces into his own power, and leave in his wake a world where everything followed the order he established.

Everything he'd seen had been beautiful for a few days, and this was like a painting of all of it melded into one canvas.

Was comprehending Existence supposed to be this easy?

The answer was a flat no. There was no question about it. Even if some people had managed to find the concept before Damien, they'd taken millions or even billions of years to reach a point where they could confidently say they could control it even partially.

Damien was a unique case.

It wasn't because of the Void this time, but because of Damien Void himself.

Damien's death did a lot more for him than he ever knew.

That day, he met Nonexistence itself. He'd been embedded with a seed that would never bloom until he realized its existence.

Damien already had a deep connection to Existence. He could say he was one of only a handful of people who'd ever seen reality itself presented before them.

Since he was comprehending a concept he had a natural bond with, he could naturally do so at a faster rate than people who did the same forcefully. It was a similar situation to what he'd felt when he was first comprehending space.

It helped that order and harmony were directly linked as well. Since Damien already had harmony, he needed to gain order before looking for anything else.

Since Damien already had harmony, he needed to gain order before looking for anything else.

Putting everything together, adding over 10 years of life experience and a sudden sense of inner peace, it was only natural for it to find him here.

Damien sat at the waterfall for three days, slowly contemplating on many things.

He didn't think about the concept of order after the first day, but the things he saw when he was being enlightened gave him a new look at several things, and he needed time to digest it all.

When he was finished, he stood up and stretched.

He wasn't quite sure what had just happened.

But he was going to have an opportunity to find out soon, so he didn't worry himself over it.

Rather, he was quite excited.

'With this, I should be able to get that over with too.'

He smiled to himself and disappeared.

For the next few hours, he stayed in the Sanctuary, where he used a time dilation to extend his time for a few days.

He was working on a specific project that would be extremely helpful when the critical time came.

The concept of order allowed him to perfectly disperse chaos from chaotic forces. Even the most disordered energy could become calm under his grasp.

One of the many privileges granted to him by this ability was to handle souls with a touch that nobody could replicate.

And with that power, Rein Winchester could be granted a second life.

Damien's excitement didn't come from the fact that the Sword would be revived, but from the revival itself.

He'd never dabbled in matters like this. It was a new experience for him.

If he happened to be successful…

'Well, I won't become a mad scientist at least.'

Damien didn't think he'd get the chance to do this so soon, but since he was granted a blessing from the heavens, he was planning to use it well.

Spending a few more hours to himself before leaving wasn't going to harm anyone.

Plus, the skills he'd gain from this procedure were well worth the wait.

When Damien appeared at the end of those hours he granted himself, he had a wide smile on his face.

His eyes glowed, filled with anticipation.

'With this, I'm ready.'

There was a Dimensional Crack waiting for him.

And he couldn't wait to greet it.
