Chapter 2

[Eldritch aura] Level 1

You are something that should not exist in the natural order of the universe. You have chosen to embrace that fact and the consequences of your choice is your aura of Death and universal violation.

Well, that definitely doesn't sound good, but it does sound cool and what's life if you don't live a little.

[Formless] Level 1

You're formless, you're not imprisoned in a body, your body is simply a shell that isn’t defined making you half-immortal, with no hp just mass.

So that is why my health stat changed to 4320 kg. That's probably a good thing, it sounds good? Half-immortal is definitely a good thing, unfortunately, it's only half, I would have liked to be immortal. Anyway, what was the last skill again? Oh yeah Orthodox mana, sounds ominous. Which I kinda prefer it to be, who doesn't wanna be abnormal?

[Orthodox mana] Level 1

The natural selection of evolution strives to limit all lifeform's potential. You however have acquired unlimited potential and unrestricted mana.

Well, that's news to be celebrated, I didn't even know I was restricted before if I even was. I can't really feel any difference right now but I'm sure it be useful in the future. Not having anything more to do, I guess I just practice still I stumble onto something a little exciting.

I didn't really have time to think about it when the planet exploded and I couldn't really see it after but I'm going really fucking fast, like shooting star fast, and that's a bit of a problem right now because I'm going full speed towards something dark like everything around it even light is absorbed into it and I kinda don't want to go into it. Every second the dark abnormal dot in space becomes bigger and bigger, and there is not quite anything I can do about it. I feel myself accelerating as I come closer and closer to the not so much dot anymore more like an enormous black hole like thing.

I can feel it starting to strain my body like it was trying to rip it apart. Panicking I start to hold myself together with mana.

Health: 8395/4326 kg

Mana: 38253/2343

I feel the mana ticking down and the earth getting ripped off my body, getting closer and closer, losing stats faster and faster. Not wanting to just take a lying down beating I start to fight back creating longer and more dense earth root extensions to my tentacle-like roots, attacking the black hole, like a squid in fight or flight mode. Relentlessly I fight back trying to push my mana into the black hole and rip it apart.

The black hole starts to shiver like a living being, cracking, breaking, imploding. The gravity that was already beyond logic pulled like never before, condensing even itself. Then it stopped but just long enough for me to see it burst. ripping my roots and chunks of my trunks, holding most of myself together with every inch of my being, and then it stopped. This time completely and permanently. No mark in space was made, no scar, no nothing. All that was left was a ripped apart tree in the middle of space.

Health: 784/4326 kg

Mana: 345/2343

I felt exhausted even though I physically shouldn't be able to, I felt tired and with the danger over, I fell asleep.

—----------------------------

The first thing I saw when I opened my ‘eyes’ was a big green and blue planet and I was orbiting it. How much time has it been? For me to go into orbit of a planet it had to be at least a few years.

Age: 98 years old

It has been 23 years since I fell asleep from the black hole fight

Health: 6432/6432 kg

Mana: 4102/4102

At least my health and mana seem fine and not just fine actually it has increased quite a lot over the 23 years I have spent asleep, a little too much, which probably has something to do with my class. Didn't I get a new skill before I fell asleep?

[World manipulation] Level 1

You have somehow acquired the ability to manipulate the world, a higher form of space manipulation that you shouldn't be able to learn but somehow have, able to create something out of nothing, make holes in space, or move a planet.

Oh. yeah, that's definitely worth it, who cares about a few years of their life. Wonder what an ability with a description like that could do, maybe I will get myself killed trying to use it but that just makes it more existing. There gotta be a limit to what this ability can do since it sounds kinda overpowered, not that I'm complaining. I guess you just will the atoms together to… Well, what's this yellow shiny sand? Gold? I tried to compress it even more and I had a peddle sized gold nugget. The ability is quite hard to use as if my will moves upstream in a river of naturality.

It took an entire half an hour to make a gold bar and to be honest, it isn't really all that useful, I guess a gold painted root looks quite nice. But on to the more interesting part of the ability, portals. A small hole got thorn in space making the space quiver, another small hole appeared 2 meters away on another root, throwing a piece of dirt though acted as expected. Went into one hole and out the other. It was amazing and with so many different uses, however, I couldn't make it any bigger no matter how much I tried.
