Chapter 444 - Primordial Ruler System

DING!

Noah's chest throbbed. An invisible and primordial power spilled out from him, spreading and piercing reality all around.

The whole Dominion of Maryam became dead silent, as if a pause button had been pressed. It didn't last long.

Next, drum-like sounds bloomed outward, shaking the very foundations of the Dominion.

The First Soul took an unconscious step back. Her other leg lifted, about to kiss the floor, backward fashion.

That action never saw its ending.

She stood still like a sculpture of a goddess made to be admired and worshiped, with her grey skin, her soulless white eyes, and stunning face.

Her head was crowned by six horns that pointed to the sky in defiance... all of these made it a sight to behold.

Yet Noah was not focused on it. His purple eyes were darting all over the place, settling on his wives and his enemies.

All of them were in a frozen state.

Understanding came to him. Before his jaw cracked open to speak, Providence's voice rang inside his head.

She said, then continued smoothly, her voice sweet like musk and soft like baby skin,

Noah listened carefully, all while admiring how the system could make this space frozen in time.

He blinked rapidly, deciding to focus instead,

"How will I rank up?" He inquired.

"Meaning?"

Providence said as if it was obvious. Which it was, to be honest.

Without giving Noah time to properly understand, she continued mercilessly,

Noah arched an eyebrow, recognizing the names of the Seeds the Records had gifted him.

Then another panel flickered into existence just beside the current

one,

Providence finally paused, and there Noah sensed something.

He craned his head inwardly, staring at his left hand. On the middle finger of it, a coiling and swirling energy of purple was wrapping around it.

It ended soon, and Noah felt something cold hugging his finger. Something like steel on skin.

The energy dissipated like a ghost under the morning sun, and there, the Prince saw a ring. The sight of it was beautiful.

The ring was white, with something like a precious crystal atop it, shining in purple. Along the body of the ring was a strange language.

Yet he could read it and speak it.

It was one of the languages Old Man Tree had taught him when he asked him, back in Gaia's realm.

Yet even if he could read it, he didn't understand the meaning behind

it.

"What is this ring?" Noah asked, drawing his hand closer to look at it

more carefully.

He tried to take it off. But he couldn't. It felt like a part of him, sensing

the connection between them.

she called out to him,

Gaia language... Noah's thoughts drifted to his third mother. His attention was pulled back by Providence's words.

'Interesting!' Noah thought, grinning. 'I already like this system. But I still cannot choose. I shall wait and listen to my wives' opinions about

it.'

He decided.

Still, there was one question scratching annoyingly at the back of his

head,

"How do I bind someone?"

Noah instantly frowned.

"Aren't you making things unnecessarily difficult?"

Providence's voice was cold, despite being soft and loving.

"That I admit." Noah sighed. "Now, how do I progress?"

Noah could have sworn that at that point, Providence was smirking

mischievously.

Noah's face split into an open smile, teeth bared into a wolfish grin.

"Isn't that convenient?" He whispered. "Did I just not receive the

consent of a person?"

"I am sorry, love. Please continue."

Providence chuckled.

"I can choose a bloodline?"

"I can choose her title?"

"Her own rank?"

Noah slowly began to understand how the system worked. And he realized it was heavily influenced by his past system.

If the past needed the affection of women, this time he needed the

willingness of a being to ensure his power.

But that was only the first stage, Lord of Harmony. He was eager to

know what Duke of Cloud would be.

A whisper of a smile smeared his face, and his ring flashed a

mesmerizing purple light, matching his mood.

"I want one thing the most at this point." He said, looking at his frozen

wives. "I need a bloodline. My own bloodline. I have lost the Elysiari bloodline. Sacrificed and never to be regained again."

He exhaled through his nose, swallowing back annoyance. "But first, before I bind my mother, let's ask her. And let's find a way

through this particular situation."

The ring flashed again. This time bright enough to stop the paused

time of the Dominion of Maryam.

'Can you do this for all the Spirit World?' Noah asked as he watched people regaining their mobility.

'I see. Noah answered dryly before focusing on his puzzled mother.
