Chapter 482: My naive sister
In Wang Yuàn's ear, that statement of 'I am your brother' sounded exactly like 'I am your great ancestor'.
After all, if a stranger suddenly appeared in your house and told you something like that, anyone would react like that, assuming that they're joking or trying to rile you up.
However, Wang Yuàn's mind was sharp. Even though her parents hadn't told her any details, she knew that she had a missing older brother from before she was born.
Could it be him?
Why did he return?
Why does he also have power?
Is he a member of the Infinite Room, or the Nightmare Space?
These three organizations frequently clashed against one another in Mission Realms, as an appropriate level of competition was beneficial for the overall development as a whole.
For that reason, Wang Yuàn wasn't unfamiliar with the other two organizations.
Among these three groups, the Infinite Room was the most powerful, not because of their top-level combatants, but rather the sheer number of combatants they have. After all, the Infinite Room makes it extremely easy to gain power.
By causing changes in a script, they would obtain Script Points to be exchanged for power from the Supreme God. In Mission Realms where time flows relatively faster, even someone who originally knew nothing could grow as strong as a combatant who has completed two stages of Divinity Extraction.
Of course, most of those Apostles' powers were obtained through exchanging them, so there was a possibility of improper use and weaknesses, but talented people are still talented, so there were still quite a few Apostles who relied on exchanging resources to complete three stages of Divinity Extraction as well.
Comparatively, Nightmare Space was completely different. Their members rely on immortal bodies that were obtained through digitization. Not only could their bodies be reinforced with different abilities, but they could also revive in the Nightmare Space if they died.
Their nature made it impossible for any Divinity Extraction to occur, so under normal circumstances, they don't appear in campaigns and instead remain in the main world to ensure social stability.
The Devil Game was even more different. As soon as they enter the game and go through the oath realm, they must choose one of three methods to immediately undergo Divinity Initiation.
These three methods were respectively dissimilation, implants, and heart demon. After this Divinity Initiation, they would all gain a corresponding ability, at which point they would need to continuously nurture and train their ability until they reach Divinity Extraction.
Wang Yuàn's choice was heart demon, through which she obtained her own heart demon beast.
…
From Negary's perspective, the Infinite Room's function was mostly to rob the 'luck' of other Bed Realms, so their main job was to fight against the forces of other worlds, while the Nightmare Space was the internal military trained by the Supreme God world.
The Devil Game, on the other hand, was a farm. It nurtures the [Origin] diversity of its 'players', then puts them under the world's control while also training them as special ops.
Divinity Extraction was nothing but a different way to call [Origin] release, in other words, the so-called process of Divinity Initiation was nothing but the pseudo-release of their [Origin], with the world taking advantage of this process to also insert certain things to facilitate better control over them.
And so, as Wang Yuàn was about to speak, Negary lightly waved his hand. A pure-white unicorn – Wang Yuàn's heart demon beast – was extracted from her body and crushed to death without being able to resist. It was then turned back into a mass of energy and reinserted into Wang Yuàn's body, except a white feather that was now in Negary's hand.
"Xiao Bai! What did you do!?"
Wang Yuàn exclaimed, discovering that she could no longer sense her heart demon beast. On the other hand, the holy glow that used to be her heart demon beast's ability now existed on her body.
〖 A small meeting gift 〗 Negary answered while crushing the white feather in his hand.
For the current him, someone at the third stage of release who hasn't begun to sustain a Seed of Truth was like a lamb to be dealt with however he wished. However, from the looks of it, this little sister of his didn't particularly like his meeting gift.
"You… Xiao Bai is my partner, my comrade, give her back to me!" Wang Yuàn shouted angrily. For some reason, she felt nothing but fury towards Negary's indifferent demeanor.
Without saying a single word or discussing anything, he curtly killed her partner without caring about her feelings. Someone like that couldn't possibly be the older brother that she had always imagined.
〖 That thing is of no benefit to you. If you want to turn your power into a summoned creature, I can teach you 〗 Negary was fully aware of all the discrepancies on Wang Yuàn's body as soon as he glanced at her. The Supreme God world wouldn't only put a single restraint on her body.
In Negary's eyes, whether it was her soul information, power characteristics, and even the aspects of Reality that her body existed in, they were filled to the brim with openings. All of her foundations were under the complete control of this world.
And since the foundation made up the individual, if Negary had destroyed all of them, there would be nothing left of the little sister Wang Yuàn.
Because of this, the only one who could fix this was herself, gradually putting her restraints under her own dominance. The only one who could save a person is ever only themselves, the most Negary would do was to provide a little bit of aid and remove the biggest and most prominent influence from her.
Familial bonds were nothing but mutual information entanglement resulting from those from the same bloodline interacting or living with one another.
If Negary wanted to, he could literally become anyone's ancestor, imposing a sense of irrefutable familial bonds upon them, but it's simply useless to him.
What he hopes for in a family member is for them to truly comprehend his Pathway and ideals, as well as accept the nature of their relations. However, this little sister of his which had achieved success too easily didn't seem to understand this point very well.
She couldn't even understand the information contained within the power that was returned to her.
〖 As expected, this world had given too many privileges, hasn't it? 〗
Negary felt a bit disappointed. It wasn't actually very difficult to release one's [Origin], some species as a whole are born with their [Origins] already released to their third stage and become capable of sustaining a Seed of Truth with just a little bit of training.
As long as there were enough resources and if the individual's will was firm enough, it isn't difficult to blindly release one's [Origin] without any training, let alone having three entire systems of power.
To a certain extent, these systems are a form of protection, allowing the practitioners to be less likely to undergo Origin Assimilation while releasing their [Origins].
Because of this, in Negary's eyes, Wang Yuàn wasn't an appropriate 'combatant' at the third stage of release at all. After Negary removed the excess functions of her system, she couldn't even flexibly use her abilities, otherwise, she wouldn't have screamed out loud and instead attacked him in retaliation.
Any first-rate Pugilist of the Flame world, even if they were only at the second stage of release, would be able to easily defeat Wang Yuàn. The Pugilist power system had been able to convert power into direct combat prowess so well that even Negary had to praise it.
If someone were to judge Pugilists purely based on the stages of [Origin] released, they would be in for a world of pain.
"I don't need you to teach me, get out of my house!" Wang Yuàn's face was flushed completely red, finally managing to manifest a pure-white mass of light in her hand, which formed into swords of light that attacked Negary.
〖 So weak, how exactly have you been surviving? 〗 Negary easily destroyed the light with a wave of his hand.
With a single step forward, he walked through the light shield that she had struggled to put up and grasped her neck.
〖 Take a careful look at what I've given you, my naïve sister 〗
A flash of red appeared in Negary's eyes, casually utilizing Killer J's hostility manipulation to destroy all of Wang Yuàn's internal barriers, forcing her to rely on her own mind to escape.
After that, he put the little sister he had lifted with one hand into the air to the side and turned to the old couple at the door, whose grocery had already fallen to the ground, and smiled: 〖 Long time no see mom and dad 〗
After saying that, the little bit of humanity that Negary had became even more obscured. Being able to personally talk to his parents one last time had always been Wang Yuan's wish, and it had now been fulfilled.
- In Chinese, the pronunciation of her name -王媛 - is different from the Wang Yuan -王渊 - that ended up becoming Negary, but transcription into English makes their names both Wang Yuan. To distinct one from the other, the sister's name will be written in the phonetics form
