Whoosh!
Just as the five of them had begun to swear the clauses of the oath they've refined over tens of tis, the five soon felt as if an all-encompassing entity was staring at them, giving them the feeling that every move they made was being recorded.
Though this feeling made them feel like every nook and cranny that made up their body was laid bare for that all-encompassing entity to see, it only lasted for a brief mont, being replaced with a sense of imnse safety and security not long after.
"Whew." Letting out a soft exhale as he closed his eyes to sense the oath, Odin soon looked at the other four and gave them a wry smile. "I suppose we could be considered as allies now."
"To an extent," said Adam, his tone bearing no malicious intent. "Anything else that isn't under the scope of what we've included in our oath is fair ga for both of our universes."
"That may be true." Mimir nodded after giving the man's words a bit of thought. "However, comparing the strengths between our universes, the clauses we've sworn are more of a detrint to your universe than ours."
"Think of it as a token of our universe's sincerity," replied Eve in return, flashing the two old n with a faint smile.
"As we've ntioned earlier, we've gained a far lot more than we expected when we received the information you sent on your universe's system of progression."
"What we've basically done through the oath is just put both of our universes on even grounds once more."
"Well…" Scratching the back of his head as he listened to her words, Mimir decided not to discuss the topic any further, fearing that the topic would go on a never-ending loop if they did.
"If you say so."
With the topic of the oath and which side owed the other finally over, the group eventually returned their focus back to the new energy the Forsaken Universe was going to use.
"…I suppose this is enough to be considered as a baseline."
After making a couple of minor changes and additions to how the new and improved aether was created, Adam eventually nodded in satisfaction as he looked at the orb of bright silver energy in front of him.
"In terms of its potency and efficacy, I'd say it's around the sa level as our mana, if not a bit stronger."
Calling the attention of Eve and the others, he soon introduced them to the energy that would soon beco prevalent throughout the Forsaken Universe.
"Although the formation process of this new energy has more than enough leeway to push its quality even further, I've decided to stop the refinent here for now."
"After all, even the original aether hasn't been reintroduced in your universe yet," said Adam, his gaze focused on Odin and Mimir. "It would take far longer for your universe to acclimate to incredibly potent energy after enduring the lack of it for so long."
"Speaking of which, there are a couple more things we need to discuss regarding the energy."
Mimir nodded in agreent. "The conversion thod needs to be modified, right?"
"Yeah." The forr nodded in return. "However, considering that it's just a highly refined and optimized version of the original aether, it won't take long for you to retrofit the previous conversion thod for it."
"That aside… with how much more powerful this energy is compared to your original aether, wouldn't it be better to give it a new na instead?"
"Think of it as the mark of a new era of sorts for your universe."
"Well…" Mimir slightly frowned at those words, the gears in his mind beginning to turn. "I'm not really good at naming things."
"Got any ideas, Odin?"
"Hmm…" Rubbing his chin as he stared at the orb of energy in front of them, the old man in question wracked his brain to co up with a na for the new energy that would be easily accepted by the majority.
Of course, with him and Mimir being affiliated with the Asgard Sector of the Realm of Myths, it went without saying that most of the ideas Odin had at first were nas that resonated greatly with them.
Fortunately, after wracking his brains a bit more, the old man ca up with a na that he felt describe the new energy well.
"Vis," said Odin, having made up his mind. "Vis sounds like it suits this new type of energy."
"Vis…" muttered Adam and the others in return, only to then nod at the na in agreent.
"Has a nice ring to it."
With the na of the new energy finalized, the five then began to work on refitting the conversion thod they created earlier, changing so of the steps in the conversion process that allowed for the ergence of Vis.
Thankfully, the group was able to change the resulting energy from the conversion successfully in just a couple dozen attempts, the latter half of which mostly involved fine tuning by Odin and Mimir while within the confines of the Forsaken Universe.
"…I… think we shouldn't delay it any further."
After confirming that the current conversion thod worked just as well as the previous conversion thod did, a look of hesitation appeared on Mimir's face just as he and Odin returned from the massive gate.
"Delay what?" asked the latter, looking at his companion with slight confusion.
"Reintroducing energy back in our universe," replied Mimir, the hesitation on his face now replaced with determination.
"Now that our energy doesn't harm the foundations of our universe, as well as the fact that we now have a solid conversion thod on our hands, it's best if we start introducing Vis as soon as possible."
Just as those words left his mouth, he then sent over a series of thoughts to his old companion, leaving Odin at a brief stupor as he took so ti to process all of the information he just received.
"This…" Briefly left at a loss for words at how far his good friend had planned ahead, the latter faintly let out a sigh as he asked him, "Wouldn't the others have problems adapting to it?"
"They won't." Seeing as Odin was giving him his tacit agreent, Mimir faintly smiled in return as he stepped back through the gate.
"After all, I'll be the one guiding them."
