Looking into her eyes, which appeared so ordinary at first glance, Ash found himself unexpectedly taken aback.
Unlike the majority, who might fail to truly see—or more precisely, to fully comprehend—the extraordinary beauty of the won before him, his newly acquired vision left nothing beyond his perception.
It was this heightened clarity that not only allowed him to appreciate their presence in its entirety but also enabled him to read books effortlessly, free from the strain and difficulty that had once hindered him.
He smiled, hands still casually in his pockets.
"And... you two are pure beauties, you know?" he said, voice low and relaxed, ignoring her previous question entirely.
"A Librarian and an Alchemist... two won I don’t have in my harem, yet~."
Luna’s lips twitched, a small, surprised laugh escaping her.
Ancestor Seeker’s smile remained, but her eyes sparkled with quiet amusent.
"You’re bold..... bolder than most who dare stand in front of ," she replied, tilting her head.
Ash shrugged lightly, still smiling.
"Well.... I an what can I say?"
He advanced with deliberate slowness, his gaze shifting between the two won, free of haste or hostility—only a calm, appreciative curiosity in his expression.
"So... you own this place," he remarked, his tone casual yet edged with a subtle, probing intent.
’Those gazes... could it have been these two? Even if not, there’s still sothing I can learn from them,’ he considered, already preparing to disclose a fragnt of information gleaned from their status.
’Even if that’s risky... we can always retreat into the inner verse,’ Elysia’s voice resonated in his mind, her presence steady as she and the others had returned as a precaution.
Moreover, their primary objective had already been achieved.
"A True Library Spirit... and you," he inclined his head toward Luna, "one of the top seven alchemists. I must admit, I’m intrigued—what reason could you have for keeping an eye on soone like ?"
Ancestor Seeker studied him for a mont, then she laughed as if she found a gem.
"I knew I wasn’t wrong... you are the one," she said vaguely before continuing.
"Indeed, we’ve been watching you... since the first ti you ca here." She admitted, "Though, I must say, your journey is pretty boring, isn’t it?"
Ash’s eyes narrowed slightly, but his smile stayed.
"Boring?" he asked, "Depends on how you look at it."
For him, the journey had exceeded anything he could have imagined back on Earth.
In just under 70,000 years, he had risen from a humble transmigrator to a figure nearly unmatched in skill and entirely unrivaled in potential.
This reality genuinely astonished him; he would not deny that he had once envisioned more battles that would push him to the brink, monts where his life hung precariously in the balance.
Yet, when faced with the choice between absolute power and potential or a grueling ascent to supremacy, he would invariably choose the forr.
In a world as unpredictable as this one, he had no desire for additional hardship beyond what he had already endured.
Ancestor Seeker scoffed as she waved him off.
"Oh please, you think I don’t know?" She asked, "You are currently in my domain... under my direct gaze."
As she spoke, her eyes transford from their usual brown into a radiant, pure gold.
Within her gaze, a text box appeared beside Ash’s head, containing, in ticulous detail, the entirety of a being’s essence.
Organized into distinct sections resembling folders, they bore labels such as History, Achievents, Race, Family, Future, and more.
With a single thought, she could access whatever knowledge she desired—at least, in most circumstances.
However, regarding the man standing before her, the only information visible was a Na and a Race.
"Ash Originat, The Unus...." She muttered, as beyond normal things one thing she could read clearly is his aspirations.
"You are quite the sly speaker. I know you desire more fun on your journey...."
She paused, then added softly, "And that’s why I involuntarily put you into a little ga... as my Champion."
At those words, Ash’s smile froze right before it was wiped away. Not because she knew his na... not because she knew his race or anything of that matter.
But, because of the word... little ga.
From her status he obviously knew of the champion stuff, but what he didn’t like was being used as a pawn.
Being a champion could have ant many things which is why he didn’t react right off, but now it was clear.
"A little ga?" He asked with arched brows. "Or have you made ... into so pawn?"
Ancestor Seeker watched him carefully, her golden eyes still glowing faintly with that overwhelming depth of perception.
Luna stood quietly beside her, arms crossed, a small, intrigued smile playing on her lips as she observed the exchange.
The Librarian showed no offense at his tone; if anything, her expression ward with a hint of genuine amusent.
"No, you’re not a pawn—none of you are," she replied evenly. "I’m sure you’re already familiar with the nine cosmic organisms and their counterparts."
With that, she glanced at the three Unus Spirits and smiled. "Isn’t that right, spirit sisters~"
Elysia, Creara, and Unara were all a bit stunned, not to ntion Ash and Luna.
After all, the three were supposed to be hidden, so much so that even Luna couldn’t see them.
It wasn’t because they had used any special concealnt technique, but simply because it was a natural trait of being a spirit.
"Yeah, yeah, get back to the point, old bones," Creara said, rolling her eyes.
Ancestor Seeker chuckled softly before speaking.
"This Ga has been in developnt long before the existence of the Organisms. Eighteen infants from True Reality had been incubating alongside the birth of the Organisms."
She then went on to elaborate.
In essence, within each Organism resided a Champion of True Reality—whether a wandering cultivator or a supre ruler.
Their awareness of one another’s existence was certain, though the specifics remained indistinct.
However, this was all part of the ga they were playing.
While the Organisms required 9,999 peak cultivators in the High Dinsion before awakening, there were two other catalysts.
One was mana stones—each champion previously needed 750 trillion of them and had to beco the sole champion. Only then would each Organism awaken.
Ash’s eyes narrowed.
"And you called my journey boring?" he said, then added, "If I enter this ga... it’ll be over before it even starts."
He didn’t need to explain much. Mana stones? He had an endless supply—quite literally.
Battling with so champions?
It might sound entertaining, but how long would it take before they were nothing more than ants groveling at his feet?
"I’ve seen this far too many tis," he said. "Tsk, if that grand battle isn’t happening within a few weeks, you might as well just grab whatever prize you’re after."
"And... get ready to join my harem. After all... I don’t work for free, you know~""
