As soon as Jay selected the Entry to FRA REALM, his consciousness was abruptly pulled into a vast, empty white space, reminiscent of the one he had entered during the orientation for the ABYSS FRA. But this ti, what awaited him was different.
Instead of a doppelgänger, a towering entity stood in the vast white space, unlike anything he had ever seen before. Its sleek tallic body crafted into a humanoid-like torso that transitioned seamlessly into a wide, trunk-like base, anchoring it firmly to the ground.
From its sides extended six tendril-like arms, long and fluid, their polished surfaces reflecting faint, shifting lights. Its chest radiated a soft glow, while its head, without any facial features or eyes, emitted a singular, brilliant light.
Around it floated fragnts of code, and ever-shifting data streams that appeared and vanished, as though they were part of its very essence.
Jay's gaze locked onto the entity, unable to determine what it was at first. But then, a voice resonated from it—a voice he recognized instantly. It was an uncanny blend of male and female tones, the sa voice he had heard countless tis since his arrival in the Trial World. The voice of the System.
"I had a feeling I would see you soon, ORPHEUS Successor," the entity spoke, its voice echoing with an otherworldly presence. "Here you are, accomplishing sothing that has never been done before in this Universe."
Jay offered a polite smile, masking his awe, and greeted back, "Good to see you again… System."
The entity's void-like eye seed to ripple faintly as it responded, "You may call Pletzion. 'Zion,' after the Universe I now inhabit, and 'Plet,' my given na."
Jay nodded thoughtfully, his mind recalling how they were within the Zion Universe, one among a staggering million Universes that ford the OMNOS, the infinite existence that housed all creation.
Pletzion continued, addressing the decision Jay had just made monts ago. "As your Soul AI aptly deduced, the FRA REALM is one of the 24 Hidden Space Realms, rare dinsions that exist outside the boundaries of conventional reality. Even if one were to find the entrance to such a Realm, entry is impossible without a proper Entry Pass."
Jay's curiosity deepened as Pletzion elaborated. "These Entry Passes are treasures of imnse value. They are exceedingly rare and can only be obtained by fulfilling extraordinary conditions or achieving feats that defy the norm. Reaching a perfect Evaluation Score of 100 is one such accomplishnt."
As it finished speaking, an ancient-looking parchnt began to materialize before Pletzion. The parchnt seed alive, its surface adorned with intricate runes and glowing symbols that shifted and rearranged themselves in patterns Jay couldn't quite decipher.
Pletzion willed the parchnt to drift toward Jay.
Jay reached out, taking hold of the parchnt. The mont he touched it, a notification popped up.
﴾ One-ti Entry Pass has been added to your STATUS. Activate it to enter FRA REALM. ﴿
Jay quickly understood what had just transpired, but before he could consider using it, Pletzion added more about the Entry Pass.
"A one-ti Entry Pass grants you the ability to spend 100 years within the FRA REALM," the System explained. "That Realm is filled with optimal environnts for leveling passive and resistance skills. Simply living there allows for incredible progress toward synthesizing a FRA or rapidly advancing existing FRAS, far beyond what is achievable under normal circumstances."
Jay's awe grew as he realized the sheer potential of such a mystical space. But then, Pletzion added a crucial piece of advice.
"However, I recomnd you not use it just yet. Once you enter, if you leave before the full 100 years are up, you will forfeit the right to re-enter the FRA REALM. Consider the timing carefully."
The ntion of 100 years took Jay by surprise. In that ti, everything outside would change dramatically. The Trial Program would conclude, Earth's System Assimilation would complete, and its protection period would end, leaving the planet vulnerable to external forces. Jay couldn't help but worry about the consequences of being absent for so long.
Sensing his concerns, Pletzion offered reassurance. "The FRA REALM operates on a vastly different ti flow. One year in the FRA REALM equals a single standard day on the Trial World, which has 96 hours per day. You won't miss any significant events. I suggest you reserve your Entry Pass until after the Final Tournant."
Hearing about the ti dilation brought a wave of relief to Jay. The prospect of spending 100 days in the FRA REALM, gaining the equivalent of a century's worth of progress, was an incredible opportunity.
He calculated that with the Beta Program lasting two months and the Gamma Program lasting three months, there would still be plenty of ti before the Trial Program ended.
Heeding Pletzion's advice, Jay decided to hold off on entering the FRA REALM. He resolved to tackle lingering troubles, consolidate his strength, and unite the Trial World first. After the Final Tournant, he would make full use of his ti in the FRA REALM.
Pletzion then shifted the conversation to an unexpected reward for the entire Trial World.
"Your Evaluation Score is so high," Pletzion began, "that it has pushed your Galaxy's Performance Score to 97.4—the highest ever recorded. Because of this, the Milky Way Galaxy's Trial World is being granted access to unlock three special features that are typically reserved for worlds that have conquered all ten 6th Order Obelisks. As the leading ALPHA PRI Prospect, you are entitled to choose these features. Choose wisely."
As the words faded, a detailed notification appeared before Jay, listing an array of options for him to select from.
After careful deliberation, Jay finally selected the three features he believed best aligned with his goals and would benefit everyone in the Trial World. ℞ἈŊꝋ𐌱ËṠ
When he confird his choices, Pletzion spoke approvingly. "Those are excellent features you've chosen. With these, your Galaxy's Performance Score could potentially reach a perfect 100. If that happens, even more surprises will await your Trial World."
Jay noticed that Pletzion didn't elaborate further about those surprises. Sensing it was intentional, he decided not to press the issue.
He was already satisfied with the new features he had picked and trusted they would provide imnse benefits. For now, though, he set aside the details, knowing he could explore them later.
Instead, Jay took the opportunity to address sothing that had been on his mind for so ti.
