Chapter 1934 The Celestial Bracelet.
After the filtering process was concluded, Empress Emily descended next to the remaining participants.
"Each one of you will embark on your own unique journey to conclude the mission and ascend to the Supreme position." Empress Emily shared, "While no time or limit was given to the number of attempts you have, I can tell you right now that we have a mere millennium before our next game." "That's it?" Rhyzel frowned, "I expected a long duration before each game."
The others nodded in support, understanding that a millennium was nothing to Supremes. If they were going to be forced to play games after each millennium, it would be too annoying and time-consuming.
"There is no point in going into details about the Supremacy Games' system." Empress Emily said calmly, "All you have to understand is that we aren't too far from being thrown off to the Blighted Grounds. So, while I suggest you take your time, be mindful of your future duties in case one of you succeeds."
Felix and the others acknowledged in understanding.
"Everything you need will be found in that bracelet...Good luck, the fate of the universe depends on you."
With that final ominous and hopeful statement, Felix and the rest found themselves opening their eyes in their VR Pods.
Whoosh!
The glass door opened on its own, releasing a warm fog around the edges. Felix sat down and gazed at the white bracelet affixed to his right arm with a solemn look.
He wasn't surprised by being inside the pod as he reached out to his wife during the summoning and told her to move his body after realizing that it would take a long while.
"Honey? You are back?" Suddenly, Asna entered the bedroom with a relieved expression after noticing that her husband wasn't harmed in any fashion.
"I am fine dear." Felix showed a gentle smile as he exited of the pod and threw a towel on himself. Then, he gave her a warm hug followed by a kiss.
"It's been days, what kind of meeting is this?" Asna sighed with an eased look.
"I am afraid I can't share details with you." Felix smiled bitterly.
"I see..."
Asna was somewhat disappointed but not annoyed as she previously expected such an answer. Meetings with Empress Emily almost always end with an NDA clause.
While Felix wasn't given anything to sign, he was smart to understand that he shouldn't blabber about what he witnessed.
After everything he saw, he understood that Empress Emily wouldn't need a contract to get rid of anyone who opened their mouth.
"What's this?" Asna soon observed the white bracelet and tried to touch it with a curious look.
"It's a similar device to the AP bracelet, but it serves another function. I am afraid I can't disclose further...At least, not before I make sure of it."
Felix understood that Empress Emily wasn't truly in control, but the seven celestial hearts. In other words, if he inquired for their permission to bring his wife into this subject and they agreed, Empress Emily couldn't stop him. "Oh, how mysterious." Not wanting to trouble Felix, Asna dropped the matter for now and said, "Dinner is prepared, come join us, Niko has been asking about you every day."
"I will be right there."
Felix kissed her on the forehead quickly and went into the bathroom, planning to shower. After he got settled under the warm shower, Felix's grimace turned stern as he gazed at the white bracelet.
'Supreme Azzorus or his spiritual clone hasn't spoken about this device too much. But, I am guessing it's the link to the seven celestial hearts.' He thought as he caressed the bracelet, 'Do I just will it?'
He had previously pressed everywhere and nothing seemed to change, making him believe that he needed to voice his intentions. Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
'Not now, let's have a nice dinner first.' Felix lowered his wrist as he murmured, "I should cherish this peace while I am still allowed...'
...
Three days later...
Felix was sitting in the living room inside his private mansion within the UVR. He had spent the past three days with his wife and son, cherishing every moment.
As for work? He came straight with the elders and told them that he had stumbled upon an opportunity that could change their family's future forever.
He didn't specify or give them any details, but he told them that he was going to resign from his position and focus wholeheartedly on it.
The elders weren't too pleased at first, but when they realized that nothing could change Felix's mind, all they could do was accept his decision. In their eyes, as long as his actions were benefiting the family, then so be it.
Not wasting any more time as he knew that his other contestants must have previously started the trial, Felix closed his eyes and uttered, "Celestial Bracelet, I wish to be connected to the seven celestial hearts."
The moment his intentions were sensed by the bracelet, it turned as bright as the sun before the light died out in a flash.
When Felix restored his vision, he found himself in the same cozy consciousness space. Only this time, there was no Supreme Azzorus.
In his place, the seven hearts were suspended in the sky akin to celestial stars.
"Since we are allowed any kind of modification in our universe, I assume our questions will be anwsered?" Felix inquired.
"Yes."
A harmonious robotic voice echoed in the consciousness space, causing ripples to emerge on the still lake.
"Good." Felix smiled.
He understood that it would be foolish to give humans the power to create a reality without first giving them a platform to obtain information.
After all, there was just so much Felix had no clue about with matters related to celestial hearts, supremes, universal laws, etc.
If he was going to do this, it needed to be done right.
"First question, is Supreme Azzorus really dead?" Felix narrowed his eyes.
Felix had checked with the few friendly chosen ones about what they discussed with Supreme Azzorus.
All of them said that he spoke in a kinda robotic way, retelling a script. When they compared what was said, most of them found that it was more or less the same.
However, this wasn't the case for Felix!
He found out that his interaction with Supreme Azzorus was unique and alive like he was talking with the real one!
While this tripped him out, he didn't share it with anyone and lied to the others, telling them that he heard the same script.
"No questions about Supreme Azzorus are allowed..."
Unfortunately, the answer wasn't as he hoped.
"I see..."
Understanding that he wasn't going to uncover this mystery without the seven celestial hearts' assistance, Felix dropped it for now...He hardened his expression and returned to the mission at hand.
"I want to know everything about the functionality of the universe and its laws."
"As you wish." The moment Felix heard the ominous tone like the hearts were about to deliver a death sentence, he froze in place.
He realized that he might have made a grave mistake by making such a broad request.
Alas, it was previously too late.
"Wai...Arghhh!!"
In the blink of an eye, Felix found himself holding onto his brain for its dear life as an ocean of information flooded it all at once!!
He screamed in absolute agony while rolling on the consciousness lake, but no one was there to help him...
The worst part? The information wasn't just being forcefully shoved into his mind. The celestial hearts were purposefully, making his brain comprehend and memorize every single piece!
"Arghhhhhhh!!" Blood started seeping out of Felix's nose as he lay on his knees with his head facing the heavens...He was absolutely crippled, not able to move a single inch anymore.
His bloodshot eyes were wide open, showing a reflection of trillions of scenes and inscriptions.
While this much information could kill anyone, the seven celestial hearts made sure to keep Felix alive throughout the entire grueling process...
