BXBX NOVEL Chapter 489 The Second Oddity.
Then the most shocking thing happened. The completion of the Avatar was accompanied by a chime. It is the notification that occurs when he has succeeded in modifying his mark of sin.
#(ERROR: YOUR MARK OF SIN HAS BEEN MODIFIED)
#(THE KING\'S AVATAR HAS CHANGED)
#(CONGRATULATIONS! YOUR ABILITY KING\'S AVATAR HAS ACQUIRED THE ABILITY THE WILL OF THE KING)
#(WILL OF THE KING: Create an avatar based on Chaos energy and ???? The avatar is temporary and can reach the demon lord level. It will degrade as it uses its base materials to exist. Can become permanent and reach demon king level if given the Godhood of a Celestial or the crown of a demon king."
His bony jaws dropped in shock. He is shocked by what he created, how he did it, and the fact that what he created was acknowledged by his system. He kept looking at the Avatar all over in disbelief. He doesn\'t need the notification to know why he has created it. He could tell because his soul force is the foundation of the avatar. The avatar is as familiar to him as any of his arms is.
The avatar he created used his soul force as the foundation to reach the power of a demon lord. It outclasses a demon lord but it is not a threat to a demon king because it doesn\'t have Authority. It will also fall apart the more it uses its soul force which it is always using to keep itself together. It will consume a lot more soul force when attacking but simply existing also consumes soul force.
He asked himself and all of Legion. "How is this happening?"
He is not the only one perplexed by the situation. All they know is that it is not natural and that their recent brush with death must have something to do with it but they don\'t know how or why. Aeternus didn\'t feel anything strange at all. All he knows is that he wanted to create an avatar without Godhood or a Crown. He tried it and he succeeded in it. It was that simple. It shouldn\'t be simple because his simple actions succeeded in changing his mark of sin without his effort.
Either he suddenly got better at creating avatars without his knowledge or the change in his Authority did something that he is unable to sense at all. He doubts it is the first reason because he did the exact same thing as he did previous times and this didn\'t happen. The results of his efforts should be impossible and yet it has been made possible.
He isn\'t the only one to notice some odd things that shouldn\'t be possible. The other clones are also noticing some very odd things. The dragon clone in its egg has the most unprecedented change. A change that others thought impossible. Then there\'s Helios. His body is not turning out as it should be.
The small star producing the golden threads is malfunctioning. The threads ought to build Helios\' body. It will start from the star as the core. Then work its way out but it is not. Instead, the golden threads are weaving into the star itself and are not creating his body. The process is strengthening the star and isn\'t getting bigger.
It is odd because an object should not become stronger on its own without it being made to be that way and certainly without external influences. A bucket should not get bigger the more water you take out of it neither should more water appear within the bucket the more you take out of it. Even if all that is made possible somehow, the water shouldn\'t be getting denser.
If the energy content of something is increasing the more you take from it, the volume should increase not the energy quality. The bucket should not be creating better water even as it is being depleted. But everything seems to have gone awry. Common sense seems to have been thrown out the window.
The golden threads are produced by the star by expending energy. The golden threads are then empowering the star without changing its size or volume. The star is becoming denser and more powerful. So it is producing higher-quality energy as it gets denser. The higher quality energy is producing better golden threads and the stronger golden threads strengthen the star again. It is a perpetual self-empowerment cycle.
Aeternus said. "Well, this is bad."
There have to be consequences to what\'s going on. Action produces an equal and opposite reaction. What Helios is going through is unnatural and shouldn\'t happen. It is bound to lead to serious consequences but Helios can\'t control it. The black orb continued to rotate haphazardly around Helios like a playful bug unconcerned about the woes of the world.
It doesn\'t help that Helios is still unconscious. Legion debated what to do about this new conundrum and they decided to wait for him to regain consciousness. He will be better able to tell them what is going on with him. So they waited.
Helios became conscious soon after. He has no recollection of what occurred after Chaos energy touched him. They filled him in on the repercussions of their actions and the odd changes they are experiencing. Then they asked him about his situation.
The star spoke to them. "I\'m fine. I feel fine. Energetic even. There\'s no need to panic."
Helios didn\'t know exactly why he is fine at first. But things became clearer to him as he grew bigger and stronger. Then he relayed his findings to Legion.
Aeternus shook his head when he got Helios\' answer. His explanation created more questions and also enlightened them of the danger he is in but Legion decided not to do anything about it. Helios said everything is alright and that there is no need to fuss.
Aeternus decided to continue practicing. He chose another sin ability and began to practice it. Meanwhile, the core of the star started to change again.
