Chapter 298: The Clouded Third Way

"Anything about the Prime Glyphs?"

The answer was preceded by a disagreeing gesture.

"Except for their number, the Tubian had no information regarding its position or powers.

But from Tanya's account, we could assume that these Prime Glyphs are established by the Will of the Dimension.

The last bit of information about these arcane symbols is from a memory of the gathering of Tubians. An elder of their community notifies that the Prime Glyphs will reappear if all the of them are not destroyed in a fixed timespan or could be rejuvenated by some unknown means.

The words scramble and images blur soon after these words. Before I could venture further, the Tubian had initiated the suicide attack."

"Do you remember the last glyph the Tubian destroyed?" (Lee Shen)

"Yes. It is 12 kilometres into the ocean and was on a coral reef about a kilometre below the surface.

Are you scheming to find out what these are actually?"

Hudson's query was unanswered and Lee Shen turned to Ruella.

"Can you go and take a look at the site? We need to know what these are and how these glyphs could be reactivated."

Ruella took a moment to nod as she hesitated initially. Upon hearing Lee Shen's explanation, she decided to help him.

Without breaking the continuity, Hudson lectured-

"But the facts I shared did not surprise more than my second conclusion.

Can you believe that the heritage of Dimension Sovereigns consists of people who had no f**king clue of Mana and Qi?"

Hudson sounded excited and brimming with vigour as his voice rose. His face resonated his expressions with wide-open eyes and a disbelief tone.

"Even D was flabbergasted when I shared this info. He said he had no clue that his predecessors contained commoners with no affinities."

Lee Shen raised his hands and cut off Hudson.

"Hold up, so you are saying that one can become a Dimension Sovereign without having an affinity?"

Hudson gave a big nod and said-

"Precisely."

When Ruella displayed her clueless face, Zena walked to her and placed her head over her lap. Ruella loosened her frown and caressed the Perrafin's fur which relieved her from her confusion. The Druid completely focused on the companionship of the feminine being.

"It was difficult to accept the truth. But when I figured out the reason behind it, the fact became justifiable.

We all know that the Dimension Sovereign is the highest individual achievement in Utopia. It is the title attributed to one who is acknowledged by the Will of the Dimension.

To be accepted by the Will of the Dimension, one must either cultivate Qi or master Mana. These are the standard paths for the journey.

But, after skimming through the memories of the Tubian, I figured that those are not the only ways one could become a Dimension Sovereign."

A short pause and Hudson's eyes scanned Lee Shen and Ruella. As if she understood every word Hudson said, Zena displayed an interest in his words.

"People always try to achieve more and more with no idea of what the underlying criteria are. Thus, many fail miserably though they think that they are fit for the achievement.

Throughout history, people have tried binge achieving mastery and cultivation. But that proved as a failure and fatal to living beings.

After many years of research of trial and error, a mastery system for Mana and a cultivation system for Qi were introduced to the world.

Thereafter, the contradictory forces found in nature became a part of many lives.

What many failed to notice was a specific twist in their journey to power which always brought forth a new vigour to the person.

In both standard paths of achieving the title, the penultimate step is about the introduction and befriending of Essence.

This is the one and only criteria for acquiring the title!"

Fero ran in the background with the sword between his jaws. Hudson looked over his shoulder after pausing his words as he heard D's scream for help.

Lee Shen clapped and Fero stopped to look at him. At his gesture, the hyena hopped to him.

Fero placed the sword on Lee Shen's lap as if submitting offerings. The next second, hyena jumped on to his lap and cuddled in a round fluffy black furball.

"What did I miss?"

D had jumped onto the table a fraction of a second before the hyena seated on the sword. The sword moved about the surface of the table and Hudson could tell a pair of eyes looking at him from the sword.

Hudson did a quick recap of the things he has conveyed to Ruella and Lee. When the revision finalised, D said-

"Interesting topic. Continue."

Acknowledging the command, Hudson began to continue his narration.

"If we are to count the total number of people who reached the position of acquiring the title, the number might seem exaggerated but it should surpass thousands of billions.

But those who truly became worthy of the title were below 200.

This was obvious because they failed to recognise and nurture Essence.

When running to the peak of individual perfection, people concentrated entirely on their respective affinity and failed to reach the pinnacle, except for those who attained the title of Dimension Sovereign.

The criteria for the acknowledgement of the Will of the Dimension was assimilating Essence, the purest form of energy, into oneself.

That is why all others lost, despite their hard work and effort."

"You are taking your sweet time on introductions."

D voiced his opinion and it contained a tinge of arrogance. Zena did not like the tone and she growled at the sword which shut D up.

"There existed a traditional notion that only through Mana mastery or Qi cultivation that one could be fitting for the higher power, for millennia.

This was shattered when the first commoner ascended to that position by sheer luck. His name was Wilson Sorrow and the advent of this farmer unlocked another way for exploration - the Body of Law."
