Chapter 178: Space Soul (Ouranos)

[Space Soul (Ouranos): Ouranos is the personification of the Heavens (Space). He is basically a soul that has a body that is made of space.

Ouranos has no material body and his mind is made of space; no psychic faculty. Ouranos has no energy organ, his body acts as a store of space that it uses for its spatial manipulation.

Evolving to Ouranos might seem like a step down but any creature that seeks to further his/her understanding of space would do anything to evolve to a Space Soul.

Since Ouranos is literally space his natural understanding of the concept is extreme high and his limits are nonexistent. He can learn multiple Erudite level branches of space.

Ouranos is a type of Freak called a conceptual creature hence he has a conceptual body that can assume the form of any creature he wishes. Ouranos is capable of reproducing with other conceptual creatures like himself to create children. Ouranos is capable of mating with other none conceptual creatures and objects to create servants.

Ouranos can only be affected by influences that affect the soul, reality or time. Spatial influences do not affect him. Ouranos has a mind that can be omnipresent due to it being made of space. As long as he is somewhere he can sense the entire goings in the space. Ouranos can only be sensed by soul, reality or time senses.

Ouranos has natural advantages over any space specialized creature as can be seen from the above descriptions.

Starting State (Boundless):

Intelligence: Grade 6 (High)

Senses: Grade 5 (High)

Control: Grade 6 (High)

Space: Grade 7 (Low)

Life span: ∞]

Jade stared at the description dumbfounded as he thought 'That's it?! This is a really horrible option! It only has 4 fucking stats!'.

[The Space Soul option was given in case you wanted to research and specialize completely on the universally fundamental resource of space. The Space Soul is extremely advantageous for you since you have a very advanced soul hence it will make you nigh impossible to kill. Especially since people who want to be immortal would try to kill you.]

Jade thought 'True, my job just puts a big bounty on my back… Killing me will make my killer immortal. This race will make me nigh-immortal cancelling out the negative effects of my job. I guess it's fair that I'm given this option since I didn't choose the Grim Reaper job. But this option seems to really make me completely inhuman. I'm sorry but I still value my humanity, I don't want to be a personification of space. I am and will always be Jade, not space… What is this Erudite level, Master level that you spoke about?'

[Levels of technology/knowledge:

Basic: Fundamental knowledge and understanding needed to achieve a certain technology or fathom a certain concept. It is the prerequisite for a basic application/realization of a certain technology/concept

Intermediate: More complex applications/realization of the basic technology/concept.

Advanced: Knowledge and understanding that allow a more unrestrained application/realization of a technology/concept that is still within the limits of the technology or concept.

Master: Wisdom that brings the application/realization of a concept or technology to the natural limits of the concept or technology.

Erudite: Wisdom that brings the application/realization of a concept or beyond the limit of the technology/concept.

For example, your Tier 1 Armament: Hack uses the basic concepts and application of space (Dimension and Void) to function without much complexity and your Tier 2 Armament: Plot Armor uses a complex application of Dimension and Void called Solid Space.]

Jade thought for a while before asking 'What were those classes?'

[Classes are our ways of understanding and identifying your field of expertise (Battle, Creation, Research and Tutoring)].

Jade asked 'So what do my classes mean, like specifically? Cause I'm pretty sure Armamancer is not a word'.

[Illustrious Magic Armamancer: A sub-class of the Weapons Master class, Armamancer refers to fighters who use various armaments, all at the same time, to fight. Armamancers can control the armaments they use telekinetically or semi-telekinetically. Armamancers can enhance their armaments for certain periods of time.

Magic is any technology that utilizes pure energy and energy techniques that are not necessarily exclusive to a single individual (can be learnt by almost anyone with the right training and talents) to achieve various feats.

A Magic Armamancer is one that uses Magic Armaments and Magic to operate and enhance the weapons he uses.

An Illustrious Magic Armamancer is one that uses Tiered Armaments that are between Tier 1 and 3 and Grade 7 Magic (Space magic/manipulation) to operate the weapons.

Grand-Master Engineer: An Engineer that is versed all fields of human engineering, Magic, psychic engineering, conceptual engineering (Space) and Aura forging (Dwarf).

The Engineer must have created tiered devices or knowledge to get the Grand-Master prefix.

Superior Research Mage: A researcher that delves into the mysteries of magic. The researcher must have researched Grade 5 Magic (Bond Magic) to earn the Superior prefix.

Master Teacher: You have taught 3 extremely successful students and have helped them overcome the hurdles that might have slowed them down and they have evolved into Mythical races.]

Jade thought 'Three? I only know of Daisuke and Samira, who is this third person?'

…No answer came.

Jade thought 'Anyways, there are different grades of Magic what's that about?'

[The grade of a school of Magic only indicates how powerful it is in its unmodified and unimproved form. It doesn't dictate how far it can go or how powerful it can become. And some magic schools are extremely hard to classify under the magic grade system or don't adhere to the rules of the grades, hence it is only used to classify the relative amount of effectiveness a type of Magic can have compared to the starting state of some magic that fits the mold.

Grade 1 – 4: Material magic like fire magic, light magic, earth magic, etc. The purer the material and the more specific the state of the material, the higher the grade, for example earth magic (Grade 1), sand magic (Grade 2), desert sand magic (Grade 3), silicon magic (Grade 4). There are some exceptions like photon magic or electron magic that are Grade 5.

Grade 5 – 7: Conceptual magic like holy magic, space magic, death magic, bond magic, etc. The more fundamental the magic is the higher the grade for example transformation (kinetic) magic (Grade 5), form (dimension) magic (Grade 6), space magic (Grade 7). There are some exceptions like holy magic and curse magic that are not very fundamental to the universe but are Grade 6.]

Jade thought 'Makes sense, next option'.
