After that entire month of working nonstop in the factory, Dream took a day to rest. The number of enchantments he had done could only be counted by Sophia, and he had expended all his energy on more than one occasion.It was a great workout though. So after Dream completed everything, he decided to allow his soul to totally recover. The purpose wasn't actually just for rest, but so he could get a look at his current power that had gone up once more.Before he had completed the vessels, Dream estimated that it would be at least two months before the gray mist spread through the rest of his soul. Now that the mist production was tripled, that time was cut down. And so, a month passed, and the mist was almost totally done spreading!It had taken more mist than they thought, but Dream assumed that it was just because it was trying to fill the nucleus. The nucleus was the core of a person, so it would take more energy to fill. It wasn't anything to worry about. So on the day that he knew
Before Dream started the advancement, he took a day to organize himself and notify Luna and Iris.Although he didn't have the luxury of mastering his new power, he still had to be able to control himself. So he took a day to try things out, building and enchanting a variety of devices.First, he went through nearly all the assembly lines and production machines that he just recently built and modified their enchantments. Especially the machines responsible for enchanting and enhancing materials. He upgraded those for superior mana and flux control, greatly increasing their ability and speed.When he did this, his Arcana and Particle manipulation skills went through some level ups, rising to level 37 and 30 respectively. Sophia also went up a couple of levels to level 14 after utilizing her changed processing patterns and Dream's skills. Although his skills remained the same, the change in energy also changed how they were used, and the usage of his skills improved.After that, he fina
Hearing the Keeper's words, Dream frowned a bit and pondered to himself.'So I need to somehow fully understand this. There's something I'm missing. But... there's something I need to ask first.'After thinking over things, Dream turned back to the Keeper."Keeper. How long can I stay here? Is there a time limit?"Dream asked this question with seriousness. For one, if there was a time limit, then he would need to meet it. Two, he couldn't spend too long here. He needed to get back to the planet lest the demons continue their diabolical plans. Luckily, he at least set it up so that Luna and Iris could control the army that was constantly being produced. If they absolutely needed it, then they could use it.The Keeper spoke after a second.{There is no time limit to this trial.}"Oh, really?"{Understanding cannot be rushed. If you require 1 year, 10, or even 1000 years, then so be it. However, you must satisfy my judgment, otherwise this will be for naught.}"Right. But... I don't hav
The empty silhouette, void of any detail or personification, rose from the body that it previously inhabited.It didn't have anything like eyes or a face, and because of that, it was impossible to tell its state of mind. However, Dream, who was the soul and silhouette, was definitely having a hard time recovering from the change. His mind had been turned upside down, and the reality he knew was shattered. The way he saw everything was different, and this was all caused by simply understanding a few lines of script.But before long, the silhouette straightened itself. Within Dream's mind, the collapsed mind space was quickly reforming. It was growing to be far larger and sturdier than it had been before.Soon, it healed completely, and Dream became fully lucid again. The disorientation faded, and when his thoughts started spinning, he realized what was going on."My... body. Why is it on the floor?"The silhouette turned and looked at the lifeless body on the ground. Then, it looked at
"Hey Keeper! How does flux carry different forms of energy as a single material? Is it a property thing?""Keeper! How exactly does the gray mist neutralize the properties of different energies? Does it simply remove their attributes? And speaking of, how can mana attain attributes from matter in the first place? Is it through flux?""Keeper! What is influence anyway? It can impart properties onto various energies like mana and flux and whatnot, but it has to get its energy from somewhere right?""Keeper, my guy! Do you never rest? Have you been standing like that for all the time that nobody was here? I mean, you should try getting yourself a hobby. Maybe carpentry?"Across an indeterminable amount of time, Dream continued to go through all the monoliths. As he did, he gained huge amounts of knowledge and invaluable techniques. The monoliths taught him about all the energies that he knew about and their special characteristics.However, as he went through the lines of script, he woul
After being reprimanded, Dream got rid of the sombrero galaxy hat. Sort of.{...You only shrunk it.}"Hey, I'm compromising!"Dream shouted as he was found out. However, making the galaxy inconspicuous was as far as he would go. He needed to at least have it there symbolically. For the pun.Besides, it wasn't like it went against the look. After examining him, the Keeper just sighed internally.{Very well. Now, only when you are finished will I judge you. However, you must personally declare that you are done. I will ask you now. Are you finished with your image?}The Keeper spoke seriously. Dream had understood the trial, attained the knowledge of the monoliths, and then formed an image. The trial was essentially complete. But the Keeper could only end it once the trial taker was judged, and to judge them required confirmation.Dream looked at the Keeper and then thought for a second."What will happen once I say that I'm finished?"{You will be judged. If you pass, you will return t
"I was able to come here for my 4th class advancement. But that silver and black script seems really far off, at least according to your words. Will I be coming back here for my next advancement? And if I do, will I be required to comprehend that silver script?"Dream spoke his concerns over the future. He really did desire the information contained within the silver script, but if it really was capable of driving him insane, then he didn't know when he would be ready to read it. Would going to the end of the 4th class really be enough?'Besides, my level is probably going to skyrocket once I go back. There may not be that huge of a gap between then and 5th class. Will that be enough to prepare me?'He frowned as he thought. After a few seconds, the Keeper spoke.{The way the universe works now is different from the time of the Archons, but it is not totally changed. Your 'classes' go according to a certain system of evolution that was dominant during the time of the Archons. However,
With the classification of his species, the experience that was flowing into him dwindled, and no more notifications appeared in his vision."..."Dream was silent as he went over the changes to his body once more. The girls stared at him as he relaxed on the couch."...Is that it?"Iris eventually spoke up, curious. On the outside, they hadn't noticed much happen. This was because Dream had full control over the power flowing into him. Nothing really leaked out, and the only reason they knew something happened was because the mana in the surroundings surged to him momentarily. Other than that, everything was normal."That's it. I've officially completed my class advancement."Dream smiled and stood up from the couch. Iris frowned though."It didn't seem like much happened. Was that prophet class a bad one? Oh! What level are you?"Iris suddenly remembered the cause for her excitement and asked."I'm level 388 now.""Wow. That's high. We're only level 376, and that was with the consta
