Aaron hovered outside the entire nebula that encompassed the Truy Empire, the vast cloud of interstellar gas and dust swirling lazily around him. Stars twinkled within its depths, a srizing veil that hid countless worlds from casual view.
[You really sure you can devour an entire nebula? You were only able to rge a hundred solar systems. Now trying to rge a thousand of them feels like pushing it too far for ,] the system questioned Aaron’s action, its voice echoing in his mind with a hint of doubt.
"I think I can pull it off. Thanks to the recent battles, my proficiency in space manipulation has increased further. Although I doubt it will be easy," Aaron smiled confidently, his eyes fixed on the sprawling nebula before him.
Taking deep breaths to center himself, he initiated the process, slowly rging solar systems together bit by bit, the fabric of space bending to his will. He increased the tempo gradually, each fusion sending subtle ripples through the void.
He employed his ti manipulation talent to accelerate the process, compressing hours into monts, the stars blurring slightly as temporal waves washed over them.
Aaron easily rged a hundred, the systems aligning with harmonious precision under his command. Then he progressed further to two hundred, five hundred, the burden intensifying as the number of rged solar systems grew, straining his ntal focus.
At the eight hundredth turn, Aaron felt a deep strain from the process, the rged systems teetering on the edge of instability, gravitational forces pulling taut like overstretched strings.
But focused as ever, he rged the nine hundredth, sweat beading on his brow despite the cold vacuum of space, his concentration unyielding.
The nine hundredth proved to be his limit, the rged systems extrely unstable, as if the slightest disturbance could cause it to crumble and result in a catastrophic event that would echo across the cosmos.
[That’s actually impressive. Increasing from a hundred to nine hundred is good business,] the system praised, its tone shifting to one of reluctant admiration.
Aaron ignored the system, his mind wholly absorbed in completing the task, every fiber of his being attuned to the delicate balance he maintained.
[Aaron...]
[What do you think you are doing? Do more than that and you might just destroy an entire nebula!]
The system warned Aaron, caught by surprise by his refusal to stop at nine hundred, urgency creeping into its digital voice.
"I said an entire nebula. Not part of a nebula. So I’m rging the entire nebula," Aaron simply stated, carefully and as slow as possible, beginning to rge more solar systems with painstaking precision.
[Do you know the gravity of your actions should the rged solar systems self-destruct? We are talking of the destruction of over nine hundred solar systems! Quadrillions of lives will be lost if you don’t stop your madness.]
The system tried to talk sense into Aaron, its pleas resonating with logical desperation.
But Aaron had his mind made up, still continuing his actions without pause, his determination a fortress against doubt.
"No risk, no reward," Aaron muttered under his breath, returning to absolute concentration on getting the job done, his hands glowing faintly with spatial energy.
The nine hundred and fifty-fifth rged solar system hung in precarious balance, the equilibrium of the entire structure teetering on a thread. So many planets spun on the sa revolutionary axis, their orbits a delicate dance that could shatter at any mont.
Should the speed of revolution of one planet increase, it could easily lead to collisions of planets, triggering a chain reaction of destruction that would consu everything in fiery chaos.
But despite all that, Aaron remained focused on reaching his goal, his will unshakeable amid the mounting peril.
He ticulously rged the solar systems one at a ti, each addition a testant to his growing mastery.
964, 973, 987.
Aaron continued rging the solar systems, each one amplifying the instability, the gravitational fields warring like invisible titans.
The 999th proved to be the absolute limit. The rged system was saturated, offering no plausible ans of incorporating the next solar system without inevitable catastrophe.
[Aaron, don’t be ridiculous. This is good enough. This can as well be called rging of an entire nebula.]
"But it’s not the real thing," Aaron replied, his brows furrowed deeply from intense concentration, refusing to settle for anything less than perfection.
The task was extrely ntally consuming, draining his reserves with every passing second. If not for his ti talent that ensured he remained in his peak state, Aaron would have long collapsed from the overwhelming ntal fatigue.
After rging the 999th solar system, the entire structure was on the verge of instability. If left unattended, it would only be a matter of ti before an apocalypse ensued, unraveling the cosmos in a blaze of entropy.
Aaron scanned the entire rged system, releasing as many clones as he could to hasten the process. The duplicates fanned out like ethereal echoes, their forms shimring as they analyzed every orbital path and gravitational nexus.
But his search proved fruitless; there was no space to add one more solar system without causing a devastating collision, the geotry of the rger defying further expansion.
It felt like Aaron was defeated, unable to achieve his ambitious goal, a rare shadow of frustration crossing his features.
"I guess this is it," Aaron muttered, accepting the apparent defeat at last, his voice barely above a whisper in the void.
[At least it’s good to know that you are sensible enough to call it quits when you face a chasm that can never be surpassed.]
The system’s tone was one of relaxation, easing after being tense for so ti due to Aaron’s audacious pursuit.
[Oi, you maniac. What’s that smile on your face? I thought we both agreed to call it a day!]
The system grew frantic, the evil smile spreading across Aaron’s face all it needed to know that he wasn’t finished trying, a surge of alarm pulsing through its connection.
"I admit. This is beyond and my capacity. I don’t think I can go beyond this. But I also won’t accept defeat," Aaron said slowly, his eyes gleaming with the light of sudden epiphany, a spark of ingenuity igniting within.
"It’s been a while since I bridged my continuum with this universe. I should be able to sustain it for a while," Aaron said with an arrogant smile on his face, confidence radiating from him like solar flares.
"If I can’t do it alone, I might as well make use of help from a much better essence," Aaron smiled, slowly bridging his continuum with the universe for the second ti since its construction, deciding to harness Norton instead of mana.
