Chapitre 32: Shift

The smell of paper, the calm silence, and the long bookshelves. Alexander looked around in stunned disbelief.

These Magical things suddenly happening, it seemed too foreign to him. He breathed roughly and looked around again, in one word, he was in a library.

Filled with hundreds of ancient scrolls and esoteric text. Why? Why did he reach here all of a sudden?

'Don't fear, brat.' Rang an ancient voice inside his head.

He looked around but could find no one.

'No need to look around, I am inside you, you can hear me but not see me.'

"Are you the Little Wuma?" Alexander asked with a stunned face.

"Yes, I am the little Wuma." Rang the voice again.

"Where am I?" Xan asked.

"You are inside my World Bead," said the ancient voice inside his head.

"A what?"

"You don't have to know that now, but just know that you have been exposed too much to Resonances and are at the moment dying, don't you want to survive?"

"...I want to."

"Let me tell you something first, you seemed to have forgotten all about the day the assassination attempt occurred against you."

"What?"

"You believe no such thing had happened, but that day, the blue system entered your brain and started shifting your perceptions, and now it is inside you, waiting for you to die and bring you into Wumalogam and give you quests to grow up in strength. Only to be eaten alive once you are fat enough. Like a pig for the slaughter." The voice was deep and dreary.

"Believe me brat, you will die no matter what you do, but at the moment, there is something inside you that is equally as strong as the Blue System fighting against it, a drop of my blood."

Alexander could only believe, he had seen too much magic today to not believe.

"My drop won't help you for too long though, it will only take a day or more for you to return back to your wimpy teacher self, and there is only one way for you to retain yourself past that. It is your decision, choose wisely, are you more important, or the others?" The voice chuckled and lingered, then with a final note, completely turned quiet, "Go, Kill your first human and drink their blood. Then only do you have a true chance at the peak of cultivation."

He had already given the brat the best deal possible, he had even created an inferior cultivation system that works on this Division and once the brat completes his 1 billion kills, he should be able to absorb a Human Wu.

Then, he will have a Human Wu along with him when he travels into Wuma World. And if he played his cards well and got the Sky Wu and Earth Wu alongside it as his path?

Even the Madman didn't know what will happen.

for ordinary people, 3 beads was the limit.

For foreigners who go there, 6 is the limit.

That is because they didn't have cultivation before being reborn, but what if they had?

If he had the Human Wu before going there, 7 is the limit.

And with three paths, Sky and Land conflicting while the Man as a balance, it would — and it should — create an unprecedented monster.

"Come, brat, show me if you can do that for this Madman, show my last specter of existence its greatest creation."

He didn't have time to explain nor enough energy to keep blabbering, if the brat was ambitious enough... everything should be alright.

And,

Alexander looked around him, he felt as if he was in a real library. In the real world.

But this was inside a World Bead thing?

And... he had to kill a Human and drink their blood to keep himself sane?
