"Fate Creator." "Future Professional, level 3." "Class Skill: Void Saint-Making." "Description: 1. Grants intelligence and consciousness to an existence you designate, raising its 'attributes' to U-Rank. It will fight for you wholeheartedly." "2. Perceives the target's various abilities, instantly comprehends their mysteries, and draws upon the same power to unleash them." "3. Everything you kill will return to 'Terminus' through entropy-eradication power." "-The Saint is without benevolence, treating all things as straw dogs."
Shen Ye looked at these notifications, at something of a loss for words.
This was... a little too powerful.
His Gate Ability was like that.
So were his traits.
Now even his class was outrageously powerful.
How had this happened?
The first few missions of the Poem of Eternity had been unremarkable, but the reward for the final mission was actually this astonishing!
"Xiatelai, I think I've gained some incredible power."
Shen Ye spoke.
"That's normal," Xiatelai said calmly. "Everything here comes from the Saint Tree's Dharma Form. It probably realized you would soon be able to let it out, so it gave you extremely powerful abilities."
Shen Ye fell silent for a moment.
Because something had occurred to him-
The so-called missions of the Poem of Eternity were missions to save humanity.
So.
Even these missions had actually been issued by the Saint Tree.
It wanted to save itself!
"I've been had..."
Shen Ye sighed.
Xiatelai smiled and said, "That's not your fault. After all, who could have known the Saint Tree was everything?"
"What about us humans? Did it create us too?"
Shen Ye asked.
"No, humans came from outside. It captured them and brought them here to reproduce endlessly, then used the missions of the Poem of Eternity to spur human evolution and mastery of power, so they could help it escape,"
