The Records immediately acted, and hid the gaze of anyone and anything from the current actions of Noah.

With the gargantuan cosmic maw of a gate behind him, Noah looked like a speck of dust in front of the heaviness and power emitting from the gate that was slowly forming.

It pulled the very primordial energy that was left after Laeh's evolution, and used it as a fuel to construct itself.

So at that moment, every kind of energy was being pulled from all around the universe to form the gate. There was pure and untainted mana, there was also shadow energy, void energy, the elemental types of mana, or even the conceptual ones like Justice, Mercy, Duty and even Decadence.

Everything that existed between the heavens and earth was being used as a material to drag this concept of Buntu into reality.

Noah was frowning heavily, sensing the weight of the forming gate on his now frail shoulders, and it was one that would soon crush him. Yet he didn't falter, his white eyes hardened like steel as he continued the process, his palms still clasped together.

Slowly, his body began to crack and fracture like stone, showing the strain his body couldn't bear.

At that point, his Buntu was only halfway formed, with the right side of the Buntu now solid, smooth and perfect, with different types of colors mixed into the material that seemed more precious than anything this universe had to offer.

Gritting his teeth, which were now slowly turning into dust, Noah summoned the effects of all the titles he had obtained since the beginning of his journey and the uniqueness of his soul in order to continue the process.

He barely succeeded, making himself able to stop the remaining upper half of his body from disappearing.

Yes, only his upper body was left. And even that was slowly cracking and dissipating away.

The Records watched intensely but did not react. Noah's wives also instinctively felt the danger to his life, and all of them exited Laeh to observe the process.

Their hearts froze at the sight of their husband. Unconsciously, each one of them tried to approach him and aid him, only to be held back by Laeh's barrier around them.

"Just believe in brother!" She said to them, while preparing herself for the fusion with the Buntu.

Sensing his wives' presence, Noah only smiled, thinking how it would be so embarrassing if he came to fail in front of them.

His focus renewed and deepened exponentially in one breath, making him link more of himself to the formation of the Buntu, accelerating the process greatly.

Soon, when only Noah's World-Heart was left, and when all the wives were shuddering in fear of losing their husband…

CLICK—!

The Buntu was finally formed.

A heavy presence settled down around the whole universe for a heartbeat, a heartbeat where every being inside of it sensed something heart-shattering slither inside their very soul, making many of them tremble in trepidation.

The Buntu was newly created, now looking like a colossal gate made of swirling colors that gave a primordial feeling. At the center of the gate was a swirling mass of black-white light, rotating on itself with the infinite symbol, heavy in implication.

The Buntu was oval in shape, with the outer ring of it describing the stunning faces of women.

Seeing those faces, the wives' eyes widened.

"No way…" Virgo muttered, shocked by what she was witnessing.

The faces were those of each of Noah's wives, all of them with their own defining features, colors, and expressions unique to them.

An overwhelming feeling of pride and love pierced the heart of all of them. Some, like Selene and Emmie, were unable to stop their eyes from blurring.

At the creation of his Buntu, Noah began to feel power seeping down into his only remaining blue-planet heart, nourishing him with an energy he only felt once.

Primordial energy.

That energy seeped deep into his heart, then began to reconstruct his body unhurriedly. At the same time, Laeh disappeared from the void and entered deep inside the Buntu.

The moment she did, the Buntu glowed with an intense purple light, the color of Providence, before at the crown of it, the exact shape and picture of Laeh could be seen plastered there.

Immense power flooded all inside of Noah as Laeh began to integrate herself with his Buntu.

At the other side of the Buntu, Laeh found herself in a wide expanse of silver-white void, with only her as a celestial body…for now.

She began to feel herself being encroached at the very center of this incomplete budding universe, becoming the core of it.

Meanwhile, Noah's body began to be reconstructed with primordial energy and with the threads of Providence now back to him.

His height increased, now standing at 9ft tall. His skin was pale-white, with perfect lean and compact muscles that would shame any man confident in his build. On the left side of his chest was a tattoo shaped like his Buntu, and so with the face of his wives clearly visible.

His silver hair now had a streak or two of purple, giving him an enchanting look. His eyelashes were now deep silver with a shade of purple.

His eyes shifted, no longer white eyes with threads and runes, but perfectly circular immaculate white irises, with pupils slitted in purple and jagged by enchanted threads.

Once Laeh completely fused with his Buntu, Noah immediately felt that he had achieved the First Warren: Gate.

With that achievement came the knowledge of what he obtained with this elevation.

For once, with Laeh inside his Buntu, his physical strength was equal to the weight of Laeh, who, by the way, was now twelve times the size of Earth.

He also had absolute control over the very concept of Providence, no longer needing any comprehension in order to increase his mastery.

Providence was his, his authority priming over anyone. And that meant that the power of fate, destiny and causality would be useless on him, would no longer work.

Then with the primordial energy coursing in his veins, every one of his attacks would be millions of times more lethal than anything. Added to that, he could use any kind of energy as easily as breathing.

Though now he was limited to Providence energy, for that was the world he integrated with.

And he also obtained an innate transformation ability, where his power of Providence was multiplied.

At his will, and at the stare of his wives, Noah's body began to slowly change.

Above his head, a purple ring made of threads appeared. His eyes changed, becoming purple-blue and key-shaped, able to see the destiny of anything inside the universe.

His face became faceless, only revealing his eyes. His skin was now untainted formless black, with streaks of brown, silver and blue dancing all over like stars in a dark sky. His hair was formless too, but purple and fluttering behind like smoke.

The wives took an unconscious step back at the sight of his new form, their hearts at their throats. At that instant, Noah no longer felt like a being.

It was like he was a concept, the very concept of Providence. One able to see and manipulate their fate as easily as breathing.

Noah raised his head to the void expanse, feeling the stare of the Records, and the searching eyes of the Progenitors and other powerful beings.

He smiled, wanting for a moment to show himself to them, but he controlled his urge. Yet he was unable to stop himself from intercepting Luelle's perception and whispered to her gently, almost lovingly…

"Soon, Luelle. Very soon."

He immediately cut it off, making Luelle, sitting beneath her Tree, raise an intriguing eyebrow at the whisper.

After that, Noah sighed and dispelled his transformation, feeling the strain of it. Then behind him, his Buntu shrunk and disappeared from reality. Though Noah could still sense it and even speak with Laeh.

He turned his eyes toward his watching wives, then smirked.

They immediately cursed.

"Damn! He became more beautiful!" Dominique cried in injustice.

"This is becoming ridiculous." Appolonia rolled her eyes, lips twitching, unable to believe the current beauty of Noah with those eyes.

Even Selene's eyebrow was twitching, "Isn't this too much, my baby?"

They continued to complain not because he was now way more beautiful than them, but because they couldn't stop staring at him, their levels of love and obsession they previously thought reaching the very limit possible were being threatened.

They were falling in love again.

And this time the fall would be cosmic.

Seeing their states, Noah's smirk only deepened, his expression one of arrogance,

"Heheheh." He only chuckled mockingly at his jealous wives, before raising his hand and lowering it again.

Space was sliced into two with the swiping of his hand, showing a wide silver-white expanse with a world moving slowly on itself in the center.

The inside of his Buntu.

"Come," he called to his wives, stretching his hand toward them, "Let's talk about how beautiful I am in our new home."

He grinned.

"In our own budding Seed of Universe."

{GLORIOUS!}
