Chapter 31: The Mystery of Felicity
•••
"Astrallis do you have a Com-Array?" Azalea asked.
"No, what's that?"
With a wave of her arm, a sleek object appeared in her hand from her spacial ring. The item was pink in colour, with a reflective screen in the middle.
With a push of a button at the bottom of the object, the screen on it came to life. There were little runes systematically placed on the screen, with a pink sword in the background. Azalea pushed one of the runes with her hands, and an array just like a Vision-Array appeared but much smaller.
"This is a Com-Array, or better known as the acronym - CA. It allows one to send 'videos' and messages to other people who have a Com-Array. The Com-Array connects to the Cosmic-Data-Array, the Cosmic-Data-Array or CDA for short, is a massive array that covers the main areas of each realm. One can send information from one's Com-Array into the CDA, and from there one can 'upload' the information on to a Runes Page. A Runes Page is a place where information and 'video' can be uploaded and viewed by everyone who has access to the CDA. A 'video' is just what people of the universe call a vision formed from a Vision-Array." Azalea informed Astrallis.
"Wait! Really? With this, we can watch fights between cultivators and find information?" Astrallis eyes started burning with excitement.
"Yes! It's also superb for organising events. Have you not seen one of these before?" She asked.
"Well, I have. All the women at the Religion had one, but I just thought they were looking at their reflections on them. Well, they would always hold me and put the CA in front of my face, not sure what that was about though." Astrallis nodded his head in confusion.
"Silly, they were probably taking pictures of you and putting it on their CulviPage; the CulviPage allows one to put pictures and information of themselves on the page. You can also follow another person's page." Said Azalea as she navigated to her page.
"See, this is my page. It has pictures of my master and me, as well as information about ourselves," She declared proudly.
"Oh, I see. That's cool. What are all those zeros on your page?" He asked inquisitively.
"Those are all my followers. I'm quite famous around the universe considering I'm the Eternal Blossom Immortal's first disciple. I have nearly a trillion followers. Although it's only been a year or so since I got my CulviPage." She smiled while saying.

"Wait a minute. Is your grandson the 'Mystery of Felicity'?" Bloei suddenly asked Anemone.
"Yes, he is," Anemone smiled in amusement.
"He has a CulviPage, and he doesn't even know. Also, his figure is always blurred out in every photo on there, because the page has his sect affiliation on it, everyone thinks he's a female." Bloei continued.
"It cannot be helped, all the sisters of the religion want to take photos with him. But I only allowed it if his figure is blurred. Because all the sisters combined have a great following, he's quickly garnered a following himself, even if all they see is a blurred figure."
"A casual five trillion," she smiled, "It's well off the both of us, but in time he will catch up, especially when he reveals himself, all the girls of the universe will follow his CulviPage."
Anemone and Bloei had a good chuckle.
"Because the Astral Realm is secluded, there is no CDA setup there, so they cannot gain access to the mainframe. Otherwise, it would have been popular by now."

All of a sudden a sleek silver CA, with red engravings along the sides, appeared in front of Astrallis.
The voice of his grandmother entered his mind, "This is your CA. I didn't want to give you one during these past four years as I wanted you to train wholeheartedly, and now that you've proven you won't be distracted by mundane things, I shall give you one."
"You currently have a CulviPage marked as 'The Mystery of Felicity'. You have a substantial following yourself, although pitiful compared to me, your gorgeous grandmother. You decide if you want to reveal yourself or not." Grandmother Anemone imperiously said.
"Cool! Your grandmother has given you a CA, just place a drop of blood on it and it'll be yours. Only you can use it," Azalea said with excitement.
He did as she said, and a page of mini-runes formed on his screen. He began to navigate it the same way he saw Azalea do it.
"Oh, it seems as if I have my CulviPage," Astrallis said in confusion.
He tapped it on, and his page appeared before him, "The Mystery of Felicity? That's odd I already have over five trillion followers."
"How did I not think of this? Who else would the Mystery of Felicity be but you?" Azalea squealed
"Oh, that's neat. I already have an account, but I have no photos of my own. I've only been tagged in photos; over one thousand of them. So, this what the sisters of the Religion were doing with me."
"My figure is all blurred. Best to keep it that way, for now, I'm going to be adventuring. Don't want anyone to know who I am yet." Astrallis left his CulviPage and searched the top pages.
"That's a pity if I managed to have the first photo with you I'm sure the CDA would go crazy!" Azalea lamented.
Astrallis just smiled in response.
"Oh, the top Heaven's Chosen list? Ages five to ten; ages eleven to fifteen; ages sixteen to twenty. Twenty-one and open. I'm in the open category as I haven't specified my age." He said in realisation.
"Yep, you can see the top Heaven's Chosen through that list," Azalea said confirming his thoughts.
For the next couple of hours, Azalea and Astrallis looked through the lists, laughing and enjoying each others company.
"Isn't there a Heaven's Chosen within the Blood Felicity Religion called the Saintess of Ichor?" Azalea asked casually.
"There is indeed; she's named Enyo. We're intimate friends, I'm sure you guys will get along well," Astrallis said his voice was gaining vigour the more he spoke about Enyo.
"Oh, let's search her Culvipage."
"She has fifteen trillion followers! She's the child of both the Blood God and the War Immortal, and she's a heavenly beauty, incredibly seductive too. How does she even have a body like that at the age of ten? Oh, right. My master told me that it's the body-art you all practice that makes your looks mature faster," Azalea said silently comparing herself to her.
'My background doesn't fall-short now that I'm the sole disciple of the Eternal Blossom Immortal, my looks also don't; well, apart from the assets, not much I can do about that now, I need to grow older first. Her body is special as she holds both the bloodline of a god and an immortal, but I have the Eternal Blossom body; we should be equal in that regard, too.' Azalea was quite happy with her conclusion.
'I mean, maybe we'll like each other. There's no problem sharing Astrallis. Wait! Does Astrallis like having multiple wives?' Azalea started to slip down a rabbit-hole.
Azalea was now close to the age of ten, and she has been introduced to the lifestyle of the Central Realm; with her perfect memory and cognitive ability, she was well-aware of the relationships between that of a man and a woman, and same sexes too.
"Oh, there's a picture of her and her father which she just posted a few minutes ago. How do I add friends? I haven't added you or Enyo." Astrallis asked.
"I almost forgot."
Soon Astrallis had added Azalea as a friend and invited Enyo.
"Now that we've unlocked your friend request you'll have billions of friends requests coming your way, the people sending friend requests with the most followers will be at the top of your list!" Azalea said delightedly.
At this moment a sensation was caused throughout the CDA, 'The Mystery of Felicity' started accepting friends. Even big shots such as the Religion Master and the Eternal Blossom Immortal were some of the first to send friend requests; this immediately made the old ancestors think it was someone of their prestige, so they sent invitations themselves.
Soon the traction caused by these ancestors adding 'The Mystery of Felicity' made all the Heaven's Chosen add him, which in turn made the commoners and people of other lower classed sects invite him as a friend.
Astrallis shot up the rankings.

"Look what we've caused Bloei," Anemone and Bloei both woefully shook their heads.
Astrallis and Azalea soon appeared in front of the powerhouses.
The sudden interruption caused the youth to jump up in surprise. The children quickly reformed their bearings and greeted the two ladies.
"Oh, my. He's even more handsome in person. I see what you mean about it being a problem to hold back the girls of the Religion." Bloei jested towards her friend.
Anemone smiled in response.
"Alright, it's about time we leave Mt. Evanescence. Bloei and I will follow you two towards the Ethereal Grotto Sect; there you can meet your families. Astrallis you will spend a month there with your family before going on a solo-experience, adventuring around the Astral Realm." Anemone said.
"Azalea, you'll have a bit more time with your family. I will explain the situation to them; it'll be quite a few years from now when you see them again." Bloei added.
"Let's go."
