"What is this exactly?"

[This is a numerical representation of the current amount of power and skills you possess, your [Status] so to speak]

"So, I finally got my own system huh?"

[You could say it like that]

"Why do I have so much mana? Also wasn't it Nova essence? Why is it mana? Also what's with the question marks in Stamina?

[Firstly, the alienship you devoured had crystals filled to brim with something much more potent than Mana, so as not to prevent you from bursting into pieces, I sealed some of it and transferred most into the Earth's core, the maximum amount your body can contain is what is being displayed]

"So I have unlimited mana?"

[Well… no, you actually don't. I just haven't been able to calculate the exact amount]

"Ok"

[Secondly, Nova essence in simple terms is 'life energy', the core beside the heart utilizes that energy to evolve and break from the constraints of the norm, that's why Earth's core made the interface that turned Nova cores into smaller crystals to hasten human progression]

[Now, if Nova essence is 'life energy', Mana can be defined as 'elemental energy' that exists in everything, it's the energy that allows one to use elements in different or specific ways, mastering one of those specific ways turns it into what we call a 'skill']

"I think I understand the (Active) and (Passive), but just for confirmation, explain them.

[The (Passive) and (Active) you see only indicate how the skill works. (Active) skills need one to move actively in order to use them while (Passive) skills work automatically]

[To answer your third question, becoming a Void Chimera affected your anatomy in ways I'm not yet able to fully understand]

"Meaning?"

[I'm still unsure if you still necessarily need to eat, sleep, and rest at all, the void attribute increased your capabilities, your battle capabilities skyrocketed, you should have at most forty-points, yet you have capabilities that have past the equivalent of fifty-points already]

"Hmm, so I'm far stronger than others of my level."

"Interesting…"

"Also, how did you transfer energy to the Earth's core?

[The Earth's core and I are the same but also not the same]

[We could be called two sides of the same coin because she used part of her body to create me. However, after I merged with you, I was 'infected' with the void attribute which in turn made me more stable and whole. I still share a connection with the Earth's core, so I filtered the Nova essence that had jumbled together with the energy from the crystals and sent it to her using that connection]

"Wait, you sent part of my lifeforce to the Earth's core!?

[That Nova essence was from the aliens that died in the explosion, not your lifeforce]

"Hmm, what about the elements? What does it mean?"

[Those are the elements you have enough affinity to utilize, void is self-explanatory, and it seems you also have affinity for darkness, while the former owner of this body had affinity for fire]

"Wait, that guardian said void was the fifth element, then why am I the only one who can wield it?"

[That, I do not know. The little information I have came from observing the guardian through your eyes and, if my guesses are right, then-]

"Then? Then what? Don't just stop in the middle of a sentence! Now I'm curious, come on tell me what it is"

[I'll tell you once I've confirmed my suspicions, working with theories would only bring half-baked results]

"Riiiight" he said with a sarcastic tone.

"Hmm, so I'm a unique species, that means that I'm one of a kind right?"

[Yes, you're the first of kind to be created and for now, the only one]

"So there could be more like me?"

[That is rather uncertain, with it's possibility being 0000.01%]

"Are you joking with me?"

[I don't make jokes]

"Then, what about me?"

[You are a rather special case, one I'm still investigating]

[The circumstances that caused the advent of a being like you, have very abysmal probability of happening again]

"Explain"

[Your soul was sucked through a blackhole after you died, which somehow caused you to end up in your current body. After which you instinctively used the void attribute when you were about to die, although in a crude way. Then you 'closed a gate' which lead to an invasion, during which you devoured a mothership which coincidentally had enough energy for you to fully become a Void Chimera]

[Do you think it's possible for this to happen a second time?]

Zephyr: =_=

He hadn't thought about it till now, but hearing it directly from the system caused him to reminisce on past events. In all truth it was all coincidental, and funny enough it was only yesterday he devoured the ship.

"Yep, it's definitely not possible." he answered the system, then something came up on his mind.

"Hey, hmm system don't you have a name or something?"

[No, I don't. Do you want to assign me a name?]

"Let's see, Zetros, nope. Zephyr, that's my name.

"Hmmmmm… I got it. Xenon, yep that's definitely it.

"So what do you think?"

[It's not bad]

"Seriously, it's an awesome name." Zephyr said before a certain notification he had put on hold came into his sight again.

[Would you like to register this galaxy to Equilibrium]

[Yes/No]

"This isn't from you, right?

[Of course not, why are you asking me that when you received the information?]

"It didn't state anything about who or what brought the prompt, so how should I know?"

"Now, let's see, should I inform the humans? I should but who would take me seriously like this anyway…"

Anyone who saw him right now would think he had gone mental, after all he was floating In space while being completely naked.

Seriously, what would you think?

[I have a solution] Xenon answered

"Which is?"

[Change into another form]

"Of course, why didn't I think of that?"

[It was probably because your mental capabilities are lacking]

A vein appeared on Zephyr's head when he heard that statement, but since he couldn't punch Xenon, he slowly calmed himself down, while swearing to make Xenon take back those words in the future before he suddenly remembered something;

"Xenon, you have a connection to the Earth's core right?"

[Yes,I do]

"Then why can't you send the information to the core!?

[....I hadn't thought of that]

"That's probably because your mental capabilities are lacking" Zephyr grinned hard as he said that, wondering what answer Xenon would give him, and he didn't have to wait long.

[Of course is it, while going through your mind I've been infected with your stupidity]

Zephyr almost puked blood after listening to it's reply, this system was too shameless, and very brazenly so at that.

"You read my memories?"

[How would I have knowledge on how you became a Void Chimera if I hadn't seen your memories when we merged together?]

[I can also read your mind, that's why I said I'm you. My character was formed using your preferences as a basis]

"Whatever, have you sent the information to the Earth's core?"

[Yes, I have. She will send it to the L rank hunters. It seems her body was severely damaged by the alien beam and it hasn't yet fully healed up]

"How bad was the damage?"

[Half of her body was destroyed before the beam abruptly stopped. She had to suck in all available Nova essence to sustain herself before I shared the aliens Nova essence to hasten her recovery]

[The interface for the hunters are had only been stabilized after that]

"Ok, Xenon can't you use Nova essence to teleport me like the Earth's core did?"

[I will use mana. The Earth's core had used Nova essence because of how abundant it was, due to the death of both humans and aliens at the time, and also because she had to teleport you rapidly to close the Gates without wasting too much time. Mana would take at least thirty-seconds, depending on how much is used]

"So how long will it take?"

[A minute at most]

A minute passed swiftly as this time blue energy coalesced on Zephyr's body and then…

WAP!

He teleported to his house
