Chapter 1036: Minor Cosmos Absolute Being

Time passed quickly. As Merlin kept devouring the Latitude Cosmoses, his Illusory World continued to expand until it was almost the size of fifteen or sixteen Latitude Cosmoses. Then, Merlin stopped.

Currently, Merlin was the Absolute Being of a Minor Cosmos. Of course, a Minor Cosmos the size of fifteen to sixteen Latitude Cosmoses was still considered quite insignificant. At most, Merlin was considered one of the bottom-most existences among the Minor Cosmos Absolute Beings. Nonetheless, compared to the short amount of time since Merlin had become a Controller, his progress was quite admirable.

Based on his current abilities, he had already surpassed Aruba, who had lived for countless latitude years. This was the unbridgeable gap between the Free Beings and the Controllers.

“Swish.”

It seemed that Tyron had been watching Merlin closely. Once Merlin was done devouring the incomplete Latitude Cosmoses, Tyron reappeared.

“Merlin, how is it?”

Tyron asked with a grin.

“Great Teacher, these incomplete Latitude Cosmoses are very beneficial. Right now, I’m already the Absolute Being of a Minor Cosmos.”

“Yes, you’ve devoured them quickly. After this, you’ll have to complete your mission. Although you’re my disciple, outside of this place, you cannot disclose your identity until you become the Absolute Being of a Major Cosmos. All my disciples are subjected to the same rule. Before becoming the Absolute Being of a Major Cosmos, you cannot disclose your identity as my disciple.”

A disappointed jolt ran through Merlin’s heart. He hurriedly nodded. “This disciple understands.”

“Merlin, although you cannot declare yourself as my disciple, I’ll give you some life-saving tactics. I’ll implant a strand of the Central Region Major Cosmos’ power of the natural order in your body. You won’t be able to use this implant but if someone were to destroy your physical body, this strand of power of the natural order will be activated. It’ll be enough to help you block the attack and allow you to escape.”

Although Tyron did not allow Merlin to capitalize on his name outside, he still gave Merlin a life-saving item. Most probably, all of Tyron’s disciples were treated equally.

“Thank you, Great Teacher.”

Merlin’s heart relaxed a little. While the destruction of his physical body might signify grave danger as well as great trouble, he was not too worried now that the Illusory World had been manifested as a real Latitude Cosmos. Even if his body was destroyed, he could consolidate another body as long as the Illusory World was not destroyed.

“Merlin, one last reminder. Us Creators are different from the Free Beings and even the Controllers. As Creators, our most essential component is ‘creation’. The reason our Latitude Cosmos can grow on its own is due to creation. So, while devouring incomplete Latitude Cosmos is important, what’s more important is improving ourselves. As a powerful Creator, even without devouring any Latitude Cosmos, we can still grow stronger!”

Merlin silently committed Tyron’s words to memory.

“Very well, I’ll implant into your body now.”

As soon as Tyron finished talking, Merlin sensed an overpowering bondage wrap around him. Even the Illusory World could not break free. That all-consuming power was like an elephant to an ant as it was utterly incomparable. This showed the massive gap between Merlin and Tyron.

This strand of the Central Region Major Cosmos’ power of the natural order could not be merged with Merlin’s Illusory World. Otherwise, the Illusory World would resist and most probably, eventually collapse.

Therefore, it could only be fused with Merlin’s body.

Under this powerful bondage, Merlin did not put up any resistance. He simply waited quietly to feel the changes in his body.

“Alright, you can go now. Go then…”

Merlin did not feel any change in his body. Instead, Tyron’s voice filtered into his ear. Then, Merlin was sucked up by a large force and disappeared from this strange subspace.

…

In the Central Region Controllers Alliance, Aruba and the others were slightly worried. A few months had passed but they had not seen Merlin reappear.

“I wonder how Brother Merlin is faring? He was summoned by Sir Tyron so he must’ve found favor. Otherwise, Tyron wouldn’t summon Brother Merlin. However, why hasn’t he come out after such a long time?”

Aruba was slightly anxious.

“Aruba, don’t worry. Nothing will happen in the Central Region Controllers Alliance. Perhaps Sir Tyron has taken a special liking to Controller Merlin and is giving him some pointers.”

The other three Free Beings were not as anxious as Aruba.

“Swish.”

Just then, a figure suddenly appeared in the main foyer of the Central Region Controllers Alliance. Aruba’s heart leaped and his solemn expression turned into excitement.

“Brother Merlin, haha, you’ve finally come out.”

Aruba walked toward Merlin jovially.

Merlin, too, spotted Aruba and the others. Merlin knew that more than three months had passed yet Aruba had continued to wait for him.

“Aruba, I’m fine.”

“Brother Merlin, what did Sir Tyron say to you during his summon?”

Aruba and the others peered at Merlin curiously. Although they had lived for a long time, they had never seen the Great Sir Tyron.

Merlin saw the anticipation in Aruba and the others’ eyes and shook his head helplessly. “Nothing major, just some stuff about Controllers. Anyway, we still have to go to Bluewater World in the Polo Latitude Region to complete our mission. otherwise, Naya will be ahead of us.”

Aruba nodded. This was one of the reasons why he was so anxious as well. If Naya arrived ahead of them, it would be troublesome.

“Right, Brother Merlin, where’s your reward? Didn’t the Central Region Controllers Alliance promise you a reward?”

“The reward has already been passed to me in person by Sir Tyron.”

Merlin could only reply vaguely. After all, the discussion about Creators and the unlimited potential of his Latitude Cosmos was simply too unbelievable to be retold. Moreover, Aruba and the others were Free Beings so it was difficult for them to understand.

“Okay, then we’ll leave immediately.”

The three people behind Aruba seemed to hesitate. One of the Free Beings said, “Aruba, Naya is a Controller as well as the Absolute Being of a Minor Cosmos. We’re not a match for him. Although he cannot do anything to us in Polo Latitude Region, once we leave Polo Latitude Region, we’ll be in trouble.”

These three Free Beings had only barely managed to escape from Naya. They were very familiar with Naya’s abilities. Even with the addition of Aruba and Merlin, it would be a suicidal mission.

While Merlin was a Controller, he had just become one, which meant that his abilities were far from comparable to Naya. Aruba had also used this mission to “provoke” Naya, which made it even more dangerous.

“Aruba, we too wish to seek revenge but there should be a plan. If we ‘provoke’ Naya like this, what use will it be?”

Indeed, Aruba’s action merely provided a vent for his anger. Even if they had completed this mission, there was no actual blow to Naya. It could be said to be meaningless.

Aruba’s eyes narrowed and his tone turned cold. “So, all of you don’t want to go?”

“Not that we don’t want to go but this mission is unnecessary. If we want to take revenge, we might as well strengthen our abilities so that we can seek revenge in the future.”

The three of them had discussed this among themselves. They would not be completing this mission with Aruba.

Aruba, on the other hand, stayed silent. After a moment, he said softly, “You don’t have to go but I will still go. Brother Merlin, you’ve just become a Controller. You need time to solidify your foundation. Undertaking this mission and facing Naya will indeed be dangerous. Let’s bid our farewell at this point.”

With that, Aruba turned around to leave. Without looking back, he disappeared from the Central Region Controllers Alliance.

“This…”

The other three Free Beings were dumbfounded. They did not imagine that Aruba’s reaction would be so intense.

Merlin shook his head with a pained smile. “Aruba has helped me a lot in the past.” He told the three Controllers, “So, even though he’s looking for trouble with Naya, I have to go with him.”

Thus, Merlin quickly chased after Aruba.
