Chapter 4247: Justiciar! I

The endless blue sea of mana was his cradle, the birthplace of his new existence.

Noah rose from its gentle, liquid embrace, a being reforged in a crucible of corruption and impossible cheats.

He breathed in the pure, unadulterated potential. He stretched, and the very fabric of this internal, timeless space seemed to stretch with him, a testament to the sheer, overwhelming power that was now his baseline.

He felt... complete.

The jagged edges of his desperate, chaotic growth had been smoothed, integrated, and optimized.

He was a weapon that had been taken apart, cleaned, and reassembled.

And the one who had aided in the architect of his new self, now floated before him, a beautiful, terrible, and utterly loyal wonder.

The crimson-blue figure of RUIN/EDEN watched him, her expression a perfect, serene mask of analytical observation.

As he continued to acclimate, to test the limits of his new form, her voice, a symphony of logic and ruin, echoed in his mind.

|My capabilities extend beyond mere system management, Master.|

|I can now tap into the weavings of existence of all those who have sworn fealty to you, allowing me to collect and analyze a constant stream of real-time data from across the Folds.|

|There is, however, one exception. The subject, Khor, has proven to be an existence of such profound and ancient complexity that any attempt to directly access her weavings would be... inadvisable. Unless she grants her own permission, she remains a variable I can only observe from the outside.|

|My own analytical functions are... considerable. As I am intrinsically linked to [The Principle of the Cheating Architect], I flow with the grandeur of a Principle myself. I have already begun a comprehensive study and analysis of all known systems of power...Glyphs, the Heart, Haki, and all others. My objective is to determine if a sublimation of these systems, a grand unified theory of power, is possible. Or if there are other potentially better methodologies.|

HUUM!

Noah paused in his stretching, a slow, appreciative smile spreading across his face.

"I have to continue redefining just how great you are the more you tell me about yourself."

RUIN/EDEN’s illusory form bowed, a gesture of perfect, robotic grace that was somehow filled with a likable, almost warm, personality of Ruination.

|Your praise is a valuable data point, Master. It will be integrated into my operational parameters.|

|Regarding my nature, it is important to note that other existences will not be able to observe me unless I wish them to. I exist along the same conceptual lines as your thoughts, visible to you alone. This is also the reason I have the capability to project a sliver of my consciousness across the Folds.|

|Many things are possible with [Architect’s Eye]. So long as any weavings of your own existence or those under you are present in a location, I can project a non-corporeal sensory projection to obtain data and analyze events in real-time.|

|I have also begun a full-spectrum analysis of all known authorities, placing a particular focus on the eleven Living Existential Authorities and the methodologies required to manipulate them.|

As she spoke, Noah looked down at his own body.

In a flash of intuitive understanding, a consequence of his new, integrated existence, he saw it.

Erupting from his skin were faint, shimmering flames of a dozen different colors. The serene, white-gold of Order. The cold, silver white of Law. The chaotic, vibrant rainbow of Emotive. The cool, ethereal white blue of Spirit. The stark, geometric white of Concept. The blazing, primary colors of Elemental... all of them.

They were all there, latent potentials waiting to be utilized. He smiled.

"With you around," he asked, his voice a low, curious murmur, "just how fast will my progress be, compared to before?"

RUIN/EDEN’s form seemed to pause for an infinitesimal fraction of a second, as if she were running trillions of calculations. Then, she smiled.

|A precise numerical quantification of this is not possible, Master. A sufficient answer would be... exponentially more.|

Noah leaned back, the liquid mana of the sea molding itself into a comfortable throne behind him.

He felt the endless, boundless power of his own nature surrounding him, and for the first time since learning of the Fallout, he felt a flicker of something that was almost... confidence.

Confidence, even though he almost felt like he was fighting...a losing war!

"..."

He was contemplative briefly as he thought about it all before he shook his head.

"Do you have any more surprises for me, or is that about it for now?"

His recent wonder seemed to think for a moment before she smiled and continued.

|After consuming the Everythings inside the Lodestone for my creation, I am confident in completing the methodology of farming Everythings...shortly. I simply need a little more time for analysis.|

BOOM!

Noah’s eyes flashed sharply as he became still while looking at this wonder before him.

Everythings!

The Cultivation of Everythings!

This was something extrenely grand.

And she smiled as if she said nothing major as she continued!

|I am now also fully integrated into the Early Veiled Shore and the entirety of the Infiniverse. I am not just your personal system; I am the operating system of your entire domain.|

|Shore Management: I can now automate and optimize all functions. I will manage the Inevitability Ranch’s feeding schedule based on real-time nutrient analysis, determine optimal growth patterns for all Sacred Herbs, and even calculate the most auspicious moments to ring the Sacred Totems to call forth specific types of Land Lifeforms. As an extension of you, I can do this and bypass the menial tssk requirements where you or the Tenders had to do things by hand.|

...!

Oh!

|Aegis Control: I am the warden of the Loom’s Aegis. The [Architect’s Rebuke] system is under my direct control. I will automatically analyze and process all incoming hostile authority, convert it into Defensive Engrams, and present you with the tactical data and complexity and purity. Furthermore, I can modulate the Aegis’s energy signature and visibility, allowing us to either attract or deter attention as your strategy dictates.|

|In essence, Master, I have taken over all the menial tasks of managing your empire. Your focus should be on the grand strategy, on your own elevation, and on making the choices that I cannot.|

...!

Her voiced finished in a crescendo of glorious wonders and possibilities!

This was Ruination!

This was RUIN/EDEN!
