Announcement: [Post-Apocalyptic Dispatch Society] has been released. Check it out and do drop a review there.

-----------------------

Dimensional Space!

Seated within a house, refining pills as usual was Gana, one of the three Beyonders under Compass Carburettor. She had taken charge of healing Stencil.

At present, she just finished refining another pill, one that unleashed a powerful fragrance. In her effort to cultivate as quickly as possible, Gana had almost reached the peak of the Martian Origin Stage.

And hence, the pills she refined were potent.

Once the pill refining was complete, she stored the pills in a vial and walked towards the first floor of the building, opening a door to see the figure of Stencil asleep on the bed.

Currently, standing beside her was an ethereal blob, resembling a slime. It was the Earth Divine Martial Spirit. The Divine Martial Spirits had their innate forms that could be manifested into reality even at the Origin Refinement Stage.

It was how Ranze made use of his brick all along.

And similarly, Stencil's Martial Spirit had been out from the start, as it had promised Compass Carburettor.

Even after arriving at the Dimensional Space, it was still able to converse with the other Divine Martial Spirits, hence learning that Compass Carburettor had already killed six Systems. Moreover, the Heaven Divine Martial Spirit even said that his and Rhizen's actions were working in favour of their Realm itself.

Therefore, it was pretty content. Besides, by remaining as Stencil's Martial Spirit, it was able to learn a lot about Systems, System Slayers, Main Character, and the System World from her.

The reason all the Divine Spirits had refused to become Compass Carburettor's Martial Spirit before was in fear of the troublesome—terrifying even—fate he was shouldering. Thanks to that fate, he could never remain in a world for long before powerful Systems would invade it to kill him.

So, if they were to become his power, the Systems would target their Cultivation World just to cripple it and make him lose power. They were aware of that.

But, there was pretty much no risk in becoming Stencil's Martial Spirit. After all, from the start, she was hidden within Compass Carburettor's Dimensional Space as a mere System Slayer. She wasn't even a True System Slayer, and hence she wasn't on the radar of any enemies.

Even as a System Slayer, she was weak, for she was the second System Slayer created out of the Money-Making System, a mere Hatchling System. So, her potential was lacklustre as compared to Compass Carburettor.

She didn't even have the chance to become the Main Character.

And hence, there were benefits involved with being her Martial Spirit. Moreover, thanks to its actions, now Compass Carburettor would do everything in his power to protect the Cultivation World too.

The Earth Divine Martial Spirit smiled upon seeing Gana enter the room, saying, "Is that the Origin Pill?"

"Yes." Gana nodded, giving the vial to it, "I've made six pills in total."

The Origin Pill was what allowed cultivators at the Origin Refinement Stage to break through easily to the Martial Origin Stage.

Stencil was still unconscious. And hence, the Earth Divine Martial Spirit had to execute the breakthrough on its own. For that, these pills were necessary.

Upon smelling the potency of the pills, the Earth Martial Spirit smiled, consuming them as the Origin Essence in its body spiked.

Origin Essence was absorbed from the pile of Essence Stones nearby, allowing it to easily become corporeal. This breakthrough was of no trouble for the Earth Divine Martial Spirit that succeeded in a matter of minutes.

The moment it completed the breakthrough, Stencil's eyelids fluttered before she woke up, muttering groggily, "Where…am I?"

"Stencil!" Gana hugged her in jubilation, "You've finally woken up!"

Stencil remained silent, closing her eyes as she sensed the information contained within the Coordinate within her. She too was a Beyonder, after all. And hence, she accessed all the related information, muttering after a while, "Aunty…Gana?"

"Yes, that's me." Gana smiled happily, noticing that Stencil was still feeling difficulty remaining awake.

It seemed that the breakthrough gave her some strength to remain awake. But it wouldn't last long.

Stencil then looked at the Earth Divine Martial Spirit, saying, "Thank you."

Though, words were unnecessary since their minds were connected now. The intelligence of the Earth Divine Martial Spirit was pretty much Stencil's mind and thought process now, its original intelligence vanishing after the breakthrough.

After all, they had formed a deeper connection now.

After a moment of thought, Stencil sensed that she would fall unconscious once again, frowning as she spoke with Gana a little, understanding the ins and outs of the power system of the Cultivation World.

She already could access most of the information through the Coordinate in her, for in extension, she was Compass Carburettor. So, she only needed to ask some doubts that she had.

After that, Stencil summoned the Neural Impulse Actuator, her Personal Fragment, actually fusing it with her Martial Spirit.

"What are you doing?" Gana shrieked in shock, expressing her panic.

"This is the only way to solve my issue." Stencil said, not bothering to wait for Gana's retort as she began the fusion process.

Gana looked at the scene nervously, watching the Earth Divine Martial Spirit morph into her choker—the Neural Impulse Actuator—after fusion. Surprisingly, the fusion was successful as the Martial Spirit became her Personal Fragment, thereby allowing her to fuse both the power systems of Earth and the Cultivation World.

Immediately after that, Stencil focused on her mind, sending her choker into her mind space, targeting the cluster of Systems that were slowly fusing into one.

The ability unleashed by the Secret Schemer System targeted the Systems in her mind, forcing them to fuse together. This placed a lot of strain on her mind, hence knocking her unconscious.

If this wasn't solved, Stencil would turn into a System the moment the Systems in her mind fuse into one, destroy her mind, and take over her System Slayer body.

This was the Secret Schemer System's plan upon noticing that Stencil's father had become a System Slayer. It was unknown as to the extent of its plans, but they turned futile now as the choker expanded in size and wrapped around the cluster of Systems.

Kieeee!

The Systems screamed as lightning sparked from the Neural Impulse Actuator, acting like snakes that drilled into their body, slowly gaining control of their body.

After some time passed, the System cluster fell under her control as Stencil began to refine them, slowly fusing them into a single entity by destroying any fragments—using the laws of Earth—that wasn't to her liking, refining the rest into a power she desired.
