[Integration in progress....]
Golden light enveloped his body.
Anos felt an unprecedented warmth and comfort wash over him.
Then, in the very next second, sothing unexpected happened.
The Ark Sphere suddenly separated from his body and reappeared before him the instant it made contact with the Divine Authority of the Biblical God.
[Compatible fusion materials detected: Ark Sphere & Divine Authority of the Biblical God: Proceed with fusion?]
"Judgnt... Are there any negative consequences to fusion?"
He asked instinctively.
~ No!
With that answer, Anos relaxed.
[Fusion initiated.]
As the system began rging the two, he noticed sothing strange.
Why didn't he feel anything?
The Ark Sphere and the golden divine core fused together, releasing an incomprehensible aura.
Yet he felt… nothing.
Just monts ago, he had sensed his mind beginning to evolve.
Now that sensation had stalled.
"Judgnt.. If I directly absorbed the Divine Authority, would I imdiately beco a god?"
~ No!
"Judgnt, is fusion beneficial?"
~ Yes!
The results were clear.
Anos had briefly assud that fusing a god's core might at least grant him transcendent-level power.
But thinking about it—
It made sense.
This was a beginner's reward.
Not the ultimate one.
Once the golden radiance fully rged into the Ark Sphere, the sphere itself turned faintly gold and returned to his body.
This ti, he truly felt the change.
He could see every detail of his body.
Every cell.
Every strand of energy.
Everything was laid bare before his perception.
And beyond that—
His consciousness itself felt like it was evolving.
Anos frowned.
He still didn't feel significantly stronger.
If anything, he doubted he had even reached mid-class devil level.
"So what exactly does this Divine Authority do?"
Did it strengthen him?
Not noticeably.
Did it enhance his potential?
Remove growth limits?
[Analyzing.]
The Ark Sphere responded.
[Divine Authority represents a divine position, A lifeform that absorbs a Divine Authority gains the potential to grow into a conceptual deity.]
[The absorbed Divine Authority can serve as the foundation for constructing a divine throne.]
[For gods, losing their Divine Authority often results in the loss of their divine status. In most cases, it leads to direct regression.]
[Originally, Divine Authority served as the core of a god's power. Most divine abilities operate through it, Legends speak of mortals ascending to godhood by obtaining one.]
[Divine Authority is also the necessary tool for receiving and utilizing faith energy. It can process prayers, petitions, and beliefs from followers.]
[It functions as a receiver, As long as a believer calls upon the deity's na within an unshielded region, the god can perceive it.]
[After fusion, these functions remain intact, However, the Ark Sphere now serves as the primary control system.]
[Additionally, the host's life-state will be recorded, A complete structural record will update every 24 hours, Using Ark Sphere energy, the host's body can be reconstructed once per cycle.]
Anos tilted his head slightly.
So, for now, the Divine Authority didn't offer imdiate combat power.
It provided safety.
A growth accelerator.
And a resurrection function.
He was satisfied.
In a sense, if his vitality beca strong enough, this ability could surpass even a phoenix's regenerative capacity.
As for gathering faith?
Establishing a new pantheon in this world would be suicide.
If he revealed himself openly, he would be hunted before he even grew strong enough to matter.
Faith energy, for now, was useless.
[Not necessarily.]
The Ark Sphere responded.
[As a survival vessel created by advanced humanity, the Ark Sphere possesses interdinsional traversal capabilities, It can cross universes and even alter parallel tilines.]
[Based on current evaluation, the host lacks sufficient strength to establish a divine system in this world, Dinsional travel may provide a more suitable developnt path.]
Anos raised an eyebrow.
Now that was interesting.
[Available thods: Reincarnation, Replacent, Direct Manifestation.]
"Oh?"
He smiled faintly.
"So there are alternate worlds available?"
If he could return afterward, then developing in a godless world and harvesting faith there would be far safer.
[Three candidate worlds available.
However, one prerequisite must be t.]
"What prerequisite?"
[Energy.]
[With sufficient energy, the Ark Sphere can freely traverse worlds.]
Anos suddenly had a bad feeling.
"By this world's standards… how much energy are we talking about?"
[Using the Red Dragon Emperor Ddraig as a reference unit: Equivalent to the power of sixteen Ddraigs.]
.
.
.
Silence...
"…Right."
He exhaled slowly.
"So that's not happening anyti soon."
Ddraig had officially beco a asurent unit.
And Anos knew one thing for certain.
Interdinsional travel would have to wait.
