Dream pondered the issue that plagued Luna and Iris, their conflict of opposite energies.There was only one possibility, and that was that the two girls occupied a single soul while maintaining two independent egos. Only, Dream was curious about how they could also attain two different sets of skills. They also had their own profiles. Everything pointed to them having two separate souls, but their collision of Dust and Ash refuted this theory.So what was their deal? Eventually, Dream came to the conclusion that it wasn't their soul that was singular, but their higher being even beyond the soul. There was something on the level of Dust and Ash that bound them together while also allowing them to form two different souls. This was the only thing Dream could think of, because if they truly did only have one soul, then they couldn't have two different skill sets and profiles. Dream had even observed their souls, so he knew there were two of them.Yet, this conclusion wasn't most comfort

After forming his body, Dream dove into a frenzy of work.First of all, even though he had just dove into his concepts, he was able to immediately begin comprehending them. Thus, he gained knowledge that essentially solidified all theories about physics and magic. Especially for physics where he had effectively formed a theory of everything.As for Ethereal Force, he was able to glimpse deeper into the nature of every energy, and knowledge on Arcane Transmutation grew by the moment. Thinking, Dream dumped a bit of extra Divine Light into the Divine Sea of Magic. Along with his deepening comprehensions, Dream felt the skill behind Arcane Transmutation become perfect.He was able to see even information behind the dots that comprised all material. Thus, taking control over every process behind transmutation was no longer difficult. Dream seamlessly converted mana into iron, then back again without any loss. It only took a bit of energy to perform.After that though, Dream took a glance

Dream's focus returned from his concepts. In front of him was the portal. The sudden changes from his enlightenment and the subsequent conversations only lasted a few minutes.[Universal War huh...]Sophia was a bit fearful of the information she got from Dream. His tiny action of taking control of a concept had actually set off such huge waves. It seemed unreasonable. Couldn't they just glance over it and leave it as an anomaly?But instead, they immediately laid out the colossal ramifications for doing what Dream did. There was no escaping what just happened, no hiding it from their eyes.Now, Dream was going to be attacked by a faction that spanned the entire universe. There were literal gods that would be hunting him. How was he supposed to escape this?Luckily, his identity was still hidden. Nobody knew who he was.When Dream grabbed the spear of Vursoid, he had been given a ton of information. First was the true identity of Vursoid. He was the leader of one of the 7 highest Asur

After a few hours, Dream was able to get a hold of the situation.Everyone in Dream's immediate family was marked, their souls taking on this symbol of the ascendency. They also gained titles, but since they weren't Dream's children, their titles were special. His parents had a title displaying their position above Dream and his siblings received a title reflecting their position beside him. Of course, they didn't suddenly gain power equal or above his, or any authority.But surprisingly, they did still gain power. Dream's parents had risen to the class 3 realm, while only one of Dream's brothers became a class 4. While they couldn't compare to Melody's power when she was at the same level, compared to the general populace, they were actually normal.But now, both of Dream's parents spontaneously broke through to have class 4 power. Even Dream's brothers had a burst in power. Not even Melody was spared, gaining more power than all of them.And Dream could feel his effects on them. The

Orin nodded at Dream."Very well. Your services are welcome. We fight a great many battles with Hell, and these disposable soldiers will help us mitigate losses. Of course, you will be properly compensated. What do you wish for?""Well, first and foremost, I have a sister who needs training. You see, she's an asura who happened to inherit the so called Blood Drop Stance. I'd like her to receive tutelage.""I understand. How about I take her as a disciple?""I like that idea."Dream readily agreed. Of course, Melody's life would be out of his hands if she were being taught by the sword god, but on the other hand, there was no better way for her power to explosively grow. Dream was sure she'd like this idea, and to some extent, he trusted this sword god."Other than that, I need materials. These bots require great sources of power, and strong materials help greatly.""Of course. You'll be paid for their use, and upon destruction, we'll give you the materials to create another. You'll co
