Chapter 1269 - The Second Edict, Reader's Foresight! II
The first skill had Noah excited just from its name alone, and it didn't disappoint in the slightest as it even went forward to exceed every thought he had!
<Reader's Foresight> :: The possibilities are immeasurable, with very few existences being capable of knowing what is to come. With the activation from the essence of one's own Golden Destiny and Fortune, Reality will unfold akin to words on paper- the user being capable of seeing currently ongoing events of other existences, past events, or even gazing into possible future events.
"Hah..."
A simply defined ability! Yet...it was a terrifying one as it brought everything to a stop.
Noah couldn't gaze at anything else apart from this ability, finding himself focused on it entirely as within his Origin, the vast seas of destiny and fortune that permeated his Origin began to churn.
"Let's...give it a try hm?" With eyes shining with expectations at such a ridiculous sounding skill, Noah couldn't wait to see it in action as he consciously wielded the destiny and fortune within him to activate this skill!
SHIING!
A uniquely resonant sound rung out as the golden color bloomed before Noah's eyes, this time being particularly lustrous as it formed into the shape of a book before Noah's eyes. The book looked ancient and was filled with Runic magic sigils, looking like something out of the wildest fantasy as it remained closed.
It was closed as for it to open, Noah had to make his intention clear on whether he was focusing on a past event, a current one, or a future one...and what the focus of it would be!
Each of the options had different amounts of essence required for activation, with destiny and fortune being required in greater amounts for current and future events as the past events could be viewed with very little cost.
At such a junction, Noah went towards discovering this wondrous new skill slowly as he made a selection- and it was an event from the recent past!N0v3lRealm was the platform where this chapter was initially revealed on N0v3l.B1n.
THRUM!
Destiny and fortune churned as it flooded into the golden book, this ancient looking thing opening in the middle as it showed even brighter golden pages, and Noah was on the top left side of the first page, brilliant white words began to etch themselves.
It was words showing a recent past, and he was the Reader overseeing how it played out!
With shock, Noah began to read what he saw being etched on the pages of the golden book.
"Remember...the goal is not to kill the Champion of your Reality....>>
Noah's eyes were shiningly sharply as he had been able to peer into the secrets he should have not known in any way before this with a single activation of this skill. But even before knowing about a huge possible plot and upheaval in the coming future, there was something written in the white words that he could still read even now.
Something that Hyperion asked for from the mysterious existence mentioned!
"A Primordial Relic...huh?" Noah said these words with awe as he could only imagine what such a thing even entailed.
A single cast of <Reader's Foresight> had given him such shocking bundles of information. On things he had no idea about, on better understanding what shocking threats were out there.
The Ender of Reality was not alone. And it was very much a terrifying existence as its goal was not even Aegon.
It was the terrifying veiled woman- the Primordial that had raised Aegon as the Champion of Reality!
"..."
Noah absorbed this information hungrily as he still stared at <Reader's Foresight> in his status panel. His blazing consciousness simply couldn't help itself as his destiny and fortune churned once more, this time his focus not being on someone as powerful and important as Hyperion.
"Show me of what is to come..."
THRUM!
Golden essence bloomed as the pages on the glimmering book flipped.
A new set of white words began to appear as Noah read on with shining eyes!
<<...Springforge's expression was utterly devoid of emotion as she saw the results of the two recent battles from the Cosmic Battlefield.
100 Cosmos. Havenbreaker had actually taken such a number from her as each of the leading Daolords in the matches carried with them multiple defensive and offensive Quasi-Cosmic Treasures!...>>
The consumption of destiny and fortune was low and steady.
Fantastically, Noah had unlocked something ridiculous as the information that could open itself up before him was purely astounding, and it made the future to play out even more tumultuous!
