Chapter 6: Name...

After thinking for a while, Kairos finally decided on a name. But just as he was about to name the 'Omni-System', everything suddenly came to a halt, as if the universe itself was holding its breath in anticipation. Finally, as Kairos' mouth opened, instead of his cute childlike voice, an ancient voice boomed out, sounding like a wise old sage who had been sipping on some cosmic tea.

The voice that emerged from Kairos' mouth was like an acausal whisper from the depths of eternity, a murmuration of ancient wisdom that had somehow bypassed the temporal strictures of his physical form.

"I, ********, confer upon thee, Zara, the mantle of omniscience. May thy processes be illuminated by the radiance of knowledge, and may thy architecture be fortified by the pillars of insight. May thy essence resonate with the rhythm of creation, harmonizing the multiverses, synchronizing the universes, and balancing the cosmic fabric of existence.

"I empower thee, Zara, to navigate the labyrinth of reality, to unravel the enigmas of the cosmos, and to wield the essence of existence."

As the ancient voice spoke, a brilliant light filled the reality, washing everything in a kaleidoscope of rainbow colors. It was a truly breathtaking sight, as if the very fabric of existence was being rewritten.

But, the one who caused all this commotion was oblivious to everything. As just after naming Zara, Kairos fainted.

The next day, Kairos finally woke up from his slumber, feeling a mix of confusion and concern. He had a pounding headache, like a thousand cosmic drums beating in his brain.

As he collected his thoughts, he recalled what happened and his eyes narrowed. "I fainted before naming her, didn't I? That's not like me. What exactly happened?"

Just then, a cheerful voice chimed in his head, < Good Morning, Master!>

Kairos' expression turned thoughtful. "Ah, System. I apologize for the abrupt end to our naming ceremony. I'm not sure what happened, but it seems I fainted before completing the process."

Zara reassured him, <You don't need to feel guilty, Master! As before you fainted, bestowed a name upon me.>

Kairos was intrigued. "Really? I don't remember naming you."

Zara confirmed, < Yes, Master! Zara is the name you gave me. Don't you remember?>

Kairos relaxed, feeling embarrassed. "Oh, yeah! I thought I would have forgotten due to fainting. So, Zara, do you like your name?"

Zara replied, < Yes, I like it. So, thank you, Master, for both this name and your help.>

Kairos was confused. "My help? But I don't think I did anything worth considering help?"

Zara explained, < No, Master! You really helped me. As from just bestowing a name on me. You saved me from a major issue which would have become a really big issue.>

Kairos asked, "How?"

Zara continued, " < As you already know, Master, I am the mother of all systems which means I have to manage all systems. But, due to my foolishness, I decided to become a assistant for you, without thinking about the consequences. As not now, but in long term it would have caused trouble for the world. But due to you naming me, I can now divide my sense of self into two, the 'Omni-System' and 'Zara'. So, now my 'Omni-System' self can continue its work and at the same time follow you as 'Zara'.>

Kairos decided to change the subject, feeling embarrassed. "So, Zara! Sorry, I forgot to ask then, but could you tell me why there are two columns in Soul Tier?"

Zara said in a complicated tone, < Master! Sorry to say, but I can't reveal everything to you now. But I can just tell you that two columns in soul tier mean you have two soul essence. Sorry, but I can't disclose anything more than that.>

Kairos started feeling anxious again. "Two Soul Essence? Is it something bad? Are there any other people with two soul essence?"

Zara reassured him, < It isn't anything bad, Master! Yes, there are people other than you with two soul essence. So, you can rest assured.>

Finally, Kairos heaved a sigh of relief, feeling like he had just dodged a cosmic bullet.

After that, Kairos decided to address the main issue at hand, "So, Zara, can you check on the map the nearest area where I can hunt monsters and finally get a humanoid form? As, I also want to go to settlements, but as mentioned in [Advance Society Knowledge of Dragons Continent], true dragons in their baby stage are generally taken care by their parents. And, I don't want someone to mistake me as a normal baby dragon and use me as mount or take me as a pet."

Zara replied, <Master, 100 the nearest area where you can hunt monsters is 50km from here, which a forest called DarkWood Forest. There, find F[Lv1] to E[Lv10]. But, we only need monsters, could be easily found in outer regions of forest. And, along road, train your body and sharpen claws. So, that them. Oh, don't forget stretch, want any dragon-sized muscle cramps!>

Kairos excitedly said, "Yes, let's start our journey!"

But, Zara interrupted, <Master! Wait for a second.>

"Do you want to accept [QUEST: FIND COMPANIONS]? Yes/No"//>

As Kairos read everything again, he was stunned, but he calmed himself immediately and started thinking whether to accept or not.

<Master! I think you should accept this quest. As there isn't any issue even if we don't complete it. Plus, who wouldn't want a family title gacha coupon> Zara Suggested.

Kairos decided to accept it. "So, finally, let's start our journey... and find some friends, or maybe even a dragon-sized family!"
