Supreme Human System

Chapter 58: Soul beast

The moon hides behind a patch of greyish, navy clouds. Its light breaks through the wispy clouds, penetrating their dark cover. The sky is freckled with brilliant, glowing stars. Their intensity contrasts against the somber blue of the night sky, and warmth begins to fill Kritos again as he takes in this magnificent sight.

The cool breath of the trees sends shivers down anyone's body.

Kritos stared at the Stars for a few seconds before inhaling a deep breath.

"Looks like mother and father are gone to sleep." Kritos murmurs

He waited for the perfect time to create the Soul beast. There is a risk to create in his room, but Kritos don't have any option.

Anyway, Kritos opened his System screen and focused his mind on the Soul beast Creation tag.

He directly chooses the 8the option from the list.

Abruptly, a big screen materializes in front of Kritos vision. He saw a line appearing on the screen.

[From which material the host wanted to create the soul beast]

[1.C-based lifeform(1000SP): These life forms tend to be stable and can easily mix with each other. High regeneration and High life expectancy compare to others. But it depended on each Race expectancy]95% of Cosmos population 

[ 2. S-based lifeform(1000SP): These life forms have a strong body compared to Carbon-based. But, less stable in an environment, so they tend to have low regeneration ability and low birth rate. Their population is scarce in the universe.] 4.9998% of Cosmos population 

[3. Formless based lifeform(10000): They are unknown and very scarce in the universe. Entirely made of energy. But, have the highest potential at their core.] 0.0001% of Cosmos population 

As Kritos look at his screen, confusion appears in his mind. He never heard about the C-based and S-Based lifeforms. On the other hand, Kritos guess that a Formless based lifeform is something like a ghost or spirit. However, even Spirit is not this much scarce. 

'Besides, Soul beast doesn't have a body. They are just aura or fuel which lets the cultivator absorb the energy from the surrounding. With each increase in cultivation, the soul beast aura becomes more realistic. Nevertheless, Soul beasts are the beast that represents cultivator souls. They are living beings which are a part of the human body.' Kritos thought

After a pause, Kritos merges in deep thought

'Strangely, I don't have a soul beast from birth, even a normal human has a mortal soul beast.'

After a brief moment, Kritos relaxed his mind and then stared at the 3rd option.

"Huh! Highest potential,"

"But it requires ten times more SP than the other."

Kritos paused and looked at the starry dark sky from his window and then at his screen.

Click!!

Kritos selected the formless based lifeform option; his mind was thinking about a specific creature at this time.

Nonetheless, after a second one, more screens popped in front of Kritos.

[Describe the soul beast power and structure]

It was the moment Kritos could execute his plan.

Kritos stared at the blank screen, where his thoughts would be written in the form of text.

"A Soul beast made up from the pure energy of the Cosmos."

"A Soul beast that doesn't have a specific body structure."

"It can consume and absorb the different lifeforms and their would-be chance that it can absorb their racial trait or innate trait."

"After each certain consumption, it can evolve its body into a new life form depending on its consumption."

"Absolutely loyal to the Creator...means Kritos, not System."

"And it would have its own mind and thought. It can talk in human language and can understand feelings and emotions."

After a break, Kritos thought about the Creature he saw in his dream, Aurelian. He was a lonely being from his birth.

Sarpakavus was one of the names given to him by the great Serpent beings, which Means Serpent King. Aurelian was on the journey to find his origin, to find his father.

In his journey, Surpakavus made many friends and few foes due to his kind nature. Many races worship him as the supreme god, and many races knew that he was an innocent being even after living through millions of years. So, they always try to gain his favor.

Friends!

He had many, but few were loyal.

In comparison to the friends, Aurelian has many devotees as he hailed as one of the early gods after the creation of the universe. 

Devote!

He has, but most of them would have changed their faith. Aurelian wasn't a being who thought he is god 

However, most of the early primordial beings believe they are. Furthermore, they can't resist the power of Faith.

Kritos remembers his eyes, which carries a prolonged pain, and his fall. 

Kritos again focuses on the unfinished screen and thought 

"Lastly, a being who can see through all the illusion."

Kritos wanted to add more things, but he thought it would be sufficient to deplete 100000 SP.

He focused his eyes at the bottom of the screen, where he saw a create option.

Excitedly Kritos click on the option. He thought if some SP remain , it can buff his soul beast.

[Loading]

In a few seconds, a screen appears again in front of him. 

[Host, please state Soul beast Background]

At the bottom of this screen, there is one option in both the corners.

[Consume 100 SP and create the setting]

Creating a background would help Kritos to choose the personality and character of his soul beast.

On the other corner, the [Skip] option display.

"100 SP can be used in buffing my soul beast. I don't have time to waste my SP on the boring things." Kritos silently said.

He chooses the other option and focuses his mind on [Skip].

[Host, Are you sure? Clicking on the option will automatically generate a story setting for the created soul beast]

Without batting an eye on the senseless [No] option, Kritos chose the [Yes] option.

[Loading]

[Creating Soul beast...0.1%]

[Time remaining for Creation...5:59 hours]

"Huh! It will take much more time than I expected. System, Just don't forget to Buff my soul beast with the remaining SP." Kritos fascinatedly said

Kritos glanced at the outside of the window," Tomorrow will be a beautiful day. Let's sleep now." Kritos delightfully thought.

*****

A starry place in a sunken Galaxy 

"You know what are you doing, buddy? It'll erase your existence from the universe, even all your powers." A mighty dragon with a 100000-meter body emotionally said.

"Buddy, my existence is an illusion without the presence of my father. After knowing the way to approach and meet him, I can't back down. He can forget me, but I can't." 

The mighty dragon glanced at the small body, which was once the most lustrous being in the whole Universe.

"Buddy, How many times I have to tell you. We are born in the primordial age of the Universe when this universe comes into existence. We don't have any father or any creator. We itself are the creator of most beings in the universe." 

Aurelian stared at his buddy and looked at the injury at the corner of his vast eye.

Aurelian travels a long distance with his buddy, Drag-di-gon. He was the ancestor of the primordial dragon race.

"But I believe I'm not like other early beings. I have a father; I can feel his presence through all the galaxies but can't find him." Aurelian happily said.

"Tsk! Blind faith bastard. You'll never listen to me. Go and sacrifice yourself to the cruel Soul beast race." Drag-di-gon angrily said.

Drag-di-gon had tried many times to take out this father's trash from his mind, but his friend, Aurelian, never listens to him.

After invading a Galaxy war within the universe, Drag-di-gon finally found the traces of his friend. Aurelian, his friend, was missing for approx a million years. Thus, he had only the option to manipulate the galaxy rulers to start a large-scale war.

Nonetheless, his friend again wanted to trap himself into the soul beast crap.

"Hehe! Will you miss me, drag-di-dog." 

"Cut the crap, Aurelian. I'm not in the mood to beat you again." The mighty dragon furiously said.

"Ohh! Me too. Well, bye, I'm already late." 

"Go and die, bastard." The mighty dragon said without any emotion.

Aurelian glanced for the last time at his childhood buddy and moved towards a giant portal.

At the last 10 meters away from the portal, Aurelian glanced back at his buddy and said while throwing an orb from his body towards him.

"Take it...It will be useless for me now, and don't forget to protect my galaxies."

Without waiting for him to speak, Aurelian directly jumped into the giant portal.

Drag-di-gon is stunned for a moment and looks at the ball, which is lying in the air.

"Go, bastard, go I don't need your lowly powers." He silently mumbled while a big drop of water falls from his eyes.

Finally, the first volume is over. I hope you guys like it and could write a review for the first volume so that I can stick it into the review block. It'll help another reader to glance at the short story of this novel.

I hope you guys will drop some power stones and help me to ascend heaven.
