Jason was not sure how long it took, but the artificial intelligence seemed to go on and on reciting the story about the five Primordial races.
As the AI included details of the mighty races' place of origin, how they came into existence and much more, he felt overwhelmed by the provided pieces of information.
It was so much that Jason didn't even notice that he had long since been teleported to the Primordial races' reward hall.
To digest the information he would require time, quite a lot of it at that, but there was one thing he could be absolutely certain about!
"Shima why do I hear the name of this planet so often? An infinitely large planet that is still enlarging after eons of its birthis something like that even possible?"
Scratching the back of his head, Jason tried to make sense of how it was possible for Shima, the planet that was also called, Planet of the Universe, to come into existence.
From what the artificial intelligence told him, once there had been an omnipotent being that had pursued only one task- to die in peace.
As such, it had created something that would be able to kill it, but for that, it required the energy of the entire universe.
Thus, after devouring the universe, the necessary energy was finally gathered, and the omnipotent being could die.
However, unexpectedly, something seemed to have gone wrong because the void connecting the adjacent universes had shattered upon its death.
Additionally, the once devoured universe used the gathered energy in addition to that of the dead, omnipotent being in order to give birth to Shima.
Apparently, that was not all, as the souls of the devoured Universe were still intact.
Driven by guilt of killing innocent beings for its selfish interests, the omnipotent being had given them the chance to reincarnate on Shima again.
Some of them were said to have gained the ability to choose being reincarnated in a new race.
This was owing to the reincarnation trials that were initiated as the last wish of the omnipotent being to seek penance for its motives.
Through this, many new and extinct races were reincarnated.
Some had received the chance to reincarnate with memories of their old life intact, while others had even gained the opportunity to be reincarnated with unique traits.
This allowed them to become stronger than others.
Trying to understand all of this took a long time for Jason because it made no sense if he were to put it simply.
His head was aching because he was attempting to make sense of everything, which was quite difficult, and there was only one logical point that Jason had grasped without any issues.
"So the five Primordial races are considered the strongest races if one were to solely look at their innate traits, and talents, which is the reason they're in control of certain parts of the universeI mean..merged universes?"
Staring into the empty sky, Jason almost felt like his entire body was breaking apart, while his mind felt mashed. Jason required some time to calm down, which allowed him to arrange his thoughts.
Forcing himself to think about the truth of the five Primordial races wouldn't really help him right now.
He might know the rough location of the Universes' parts that were governed by the Primordial races, and also where their home was supposed to be.
But being able to see something on a map, and knowing where one was currently located, let alone headed to go was something completely different.
In the end, despite being ginormous in his opinion, Manyr was considered a relatively small planet.
The Universe was vast, and the Planet of the Universe, Shima, was the biggest planet where the five Primordial races were located, or at least the world bridges leading to them were situated there, and nowhere else.
Because of that, Jason knew that even if he were to search for a direct path leading towards his father, it would take a very long time to find him as Shima was simply too big.
With that in mind, Jason could only shake his head in disappointment. He was questioning how long it would take him to reach the necessary strength to survive on Shima, and to venture through it before he would be able to meet his father.
However, after thinking about it again, he was not even sure if he was ready to meet his father, or if that was something he wanted to do.
Rather than searching for his father, who he had never met and who couldn't even take care of the woman he loved, Jason wanted to search for his grandparents!
He was still hopeful that they were alive even if there was no proof for this.
But before trying to find his family, there were too many things he had to solve, including taking revenge!
And for that Jason required more knowledge and strength.
And, the Dungeon of the Primordial Descendant's treasury seemed to be the perfect way to achieve this!
At least, he was confident in being able to obtain almost everything in the treasury of the dungeon after what he had heard about the Primordial races.
If they weren't even generous enough to fill the dungeon with ample treasures for their descendants, he was not sure what to think of them anymore.
He had realized long ago that the dungeon was a means to train the descendants while rewarding them according to their passing score.
Just as he thought about what kinds of rewards he required, the voice of the artificial intelligence resounded in his head once again.
[Passing scores and procured merit points have been added up. The Challenger received [4489] Merit points.
In the tower trial, the Challenger received 389 Merit points, followed by a 'Good' achievement, which is worth 100 Merit points at the 'Void' difficulty.
In the second trial, the Challenger received a 'Good+' achievement, which is worth 500 Merit points at the 'Void' difficulty.
In the third trial, the Challenger received an 'Extraordinary' achievement, which is worth 2000 Merit points at the 'Void' difficulty.
In the fourth trial, the Challengerworth 2000 Merit
In the fifth trial
Due to the Legacy trial, 1000 Merit points will be deducted!]
Jason was initially listening intently to the message he received, but when it began to repeat itself, he ignored everything while fully focusing on the large number of Merit points he received.
With almost 4500 merit points, he should be able to procure almost everything he wanted to.
Thus, he took a breath of relief thinking that he was done with the dungeon.
Yet, just when he regained his senses after thinking about AI's story in addition to the notification about the number of merit points he received, Jason felt something appear in his hand.
It was the true soul awakening orb, that looked extremely simple, yet oddly magnificent owing to the faint silver streams one could see in the semi-translucent orb.
At that moment he recalled the information the artificial intelligence had transmitted to him.
It had shared a list of the resources he had to procure in order to activate the true soul awakening orb, which did not include the items his bloodline required to be unsealed.
The shared information also included his Celestia bloodline, but that was not the case for his human bloodline, which was a little bit frustrating.
This was not the case because the items for the true soul awakening of the Celestia bloodline's part of his soul were not in his possession and rare, but more because he was not sure where to start searching for items that could awaken his soul, to begin with.
And this didn't even include the question on how he was to figure out which specific item was needed to awaken his soul!
