Chapter ?1595 Small Talk

"How's that work anyway?"

When Theo threw that question, his mind became confused.

It was true that he could absorb the Reality Order like what those people did. But how did he absorb the lingering energy to increase his own attributes? Why did the energy enter his body through their help?

Theo wondered at this moment, trying to figure out the tricks. After all, this might be the last step he needed to go toe to toe against them.

"Hmm… Let me recall everything about my encounters with the God of Mischief." Theo fell silent. "Now that I think about it, the God of Mischief once tricked the world to gain the Reality Eyes as well as erasing the restriction.

"He even became a Singularity and created a technique beyond S Rank. On the other hand, I had never done something like this. I might be able to fool people, but I have yet to do something beyond my own imagination."

Theo fell silent as his expression became serious.

"That's right. The world's system is still restricting me. Then, how do I lift up that restriction?"

The contemplation took ten minutes before Theo sat down on the floor while locking himself in a room. He crossed his legs and closed his eyes.

Once he became an Authority, the bridge that connected him to the world evolved.

When he meditated, he could feel the connection between him and the world. Since the world had its consciousness, he thought there would be a way to find it.

"I am the Reality Saint…" Theo muttered as his consciousness appeared in a plain white world with nothing in it. There was nothing in this place, but Theo walked forward without hesitation.

Soon, a bridge appeared in that white room as if leading him somewhere.

Suddenly, an androgynous voice echoed in his mind.

"I'm impressed. You're one of the people who can find me without asking me the way."

"!!!" Theo knew this voice was the world since he had heard it many times. "I'm just testing everything I've witnessed so far. I am the Reality Saint, so I can bend reality as I like.

"That's why I know that I can create a reality where I can meet you…"

"A reality to meet me? It's more like a reality where you can force me to meet you."

Theo smiled, not denying it.

"I'm simply wanting to have small talk." Theo glanced to the side, forming a mannequin without a face. Just like that, the world used this body as a medium to talk more comfortably with Theo. Or, from the world's perspective, Theo was forcing the world's consciousness to enter this body.

"Is it bothering you to be forced like this?"

"I don't feel anything. What you do is completely irrelevant to me."

"I see." Theo contemplated for a moment before saying, "I want to know the limit of my power. I have seen all the amazing people whose strength is beyond my understanding. Yet, I can't find a way to reach their level."

"I believe you have found your answers." The world opened its mouth, staring at him.

"…" Theo scratched the back of his head. On the one hand, he had prepared several ways that might be possible for him to reach their level. On the other hand, they were too absurd and he believed there was a limit.

Theo sighed and said, "I have three ways to reach their level. The first is to level up like crazy and reach Authority with this system. However, this method has a fatal flaw.

"Each level only gives me five attribute points. I have to reach level two thousand if I want to beat them.

"Thus, I prepare the second way, which is to raise the attributes every time you level up. Unfortunately, I don't think I can set up a law where each level can give me ten points instead of five without affecting the previous law.

"That's why when the condition is changed, it means that all people will have additional attributes, but they can't utilize the system anymore, causing a hole in the order itself. It'll just turn me into a criminal.

"Then, I have come up with the last way. I am going to use all my power to alter the power system as a whole, creating a new power system and reactivating it.

"But I'm afraid that the moment I do this, the one who is affected by this new power system is not only the human but all other creatures in this world. The monsters will become even more ferocious and won't hesitate to kill the humans to get stronger.

"That's why all three answers are useless. I will only ruin this world if I do it."

Theo explained to the world that all three ways were completely useless.

The world paused for a moment and asked, "So, what's the problem? My job is not to give you the answer. If you want to know the way, you have to find it yourself."

"I know. That's why I'm talking to you right now. I can see there is one more possibility." Theo raised three fingers as if telling the world it was the third way instead of the fourth one. "The humans can absorb the lingering energy from the herbs or artifacts to increase one's attribute, why?

"People can understand that herbs are good for your body, but why could they absorb energy from artifacts? The answer is simple and I'm looking at it right now."

The world asked for confirmation with a monotonous tone. "Me? Are you assuming that I'm the cause that humans can absorb the lingering energy?"

"No. You're not the cause. Instead, you're the way to absorb the energy. There are three ranks that I recognize with you at the very top. Below you is the God of Creation and, finally the Saints.

"You are the one creating the Orders and Authorities, which are used by the God of Creation. Then, the God of Creation created this world and allowed us the Saints to change the rules a bit.

"However, the Orders and the Authorities are coming from you… How did you create Order and Authority? There is something beyond Authority… And that something is the one allowing us to absorb the energy!"
