Darius Supreme

But Darius was also moved by these Eternals.

At their core, Eternals were individuals that had been given unfathomable power by their Eternity Swords. The relationship between an Eternal and their Eternity Sword was usually one of companionship, as the Eternity Swords were powerful enough to have full-fledged personalities of their own.

In some cases, they could even force their will upon their wielder to gain an advantage in battle. When someone became an Eternal, they must be completely severed from the time axis or the river of time.

That is, all evidence and effects the Eternal had existed in their world of origin or any other world is rendered void the moment they become an Eternal. Because of this, they stopped aging from the moment they became an Eternal, and became immortal by practically all means.

Usually, the only one who could defeat an Eternal was another Eternal.

Naturally, majority of the tearjerker aspects of the game came from the fact that by becoming an Eternal, the protagonist (and you the player) had to watch all the people you bonded and even partially romanced with completely forget about you with no chance of remembrance.

All Eternal Swords broke from a single Rank 0 Eternity Sword, Aeon, the moment everything in the Universe came into being. The true origin of these weapons were a mystery to even most Eternals, mainly to those who didn\'t know the truth behind the cosmology of the universe.

Every Eternity Sword has a name that they know of at birth, different from their wielder\'s name. Eternity Swords Ranks 4 and above tend to have a name that harbors over an abstract concept, such as Rank 4 Desire, Rank 5 Oath, Rank 2 wisdom that the protagonist of the story upgrades to after becoming an eternal, Rank 2 World that the enemy of the protagonist upgrades to after beating the protagonist in their first \'final fight\'.

Darius folded his arms and pondered. He then opened the System Shop to see the price of a Travel Key to the world of Phantasmagoria. He saw that there were three keys being sold.

One was a Travel Key, one was a Resident Key and the final was an Owner Key.

Travel Keys were one-time-use items that allowed him to enter another world for up to 1 month before being brought back to where he traveled from. Resident Keys were one-time use that allowed him to be able to enter that world and be recognized by the laws as a native and stay or leave as much as he wanted.

Owner Keys gave him ownership of that world, becoming the literal heaven\'s will. He could change the laws, rules, history, and future of that world as he pleased.

Darius was amused and checked the prices, which wiped his smile right away.

A single Travel Key cost 100,000 True Coins! A Resident Key\'s value varied depending on the world, but Phantasmagoria\'s was 1 Million True Coins! An Ownership Key also varied depending on the world in question, with this world\'s being over 500 million!

Compared to his 35k True Coins, Darius was clearly not equipped to make a trip. However, he had no intention of heading over since it was too early.

Only when he reached the Master stage and refined his power would he begin world-hopping and dominating the entire universe from scratch, proving to Vena that he was not limited to a mere planet.

Darius shook his head and closed the System Shop, but then re-opened it. He then checked the price of Aeon, the Rank 0 sword that spawned all others.

[Aeon the Eternity Sword - Weapon

Durability: MAX/MAX

Quality: Supreme

Description: A weapon that came into being during the creation of a lesser multiverse universe. It possesses the entirety of that universe\'s laws and origin power, causing it to be able to display around 30% of the full power of a Supreme at its peak.]

A Supreme quality weapon!

Darius\' eyes narrowed for this was the first time he was seeing such a thing. A weapon that could bring out 30% of the power of a Supreme at its peak was no joke, and he would even love to wield something like this after becoming a Supreme.

Trying to do so right now would likely vaporize him because as stated, Eternity Swords had their own will. A weapon that powerful would never submit to a mere him, and would likely enslave him right from the get-go.

Besides, its price tag was over 300 billion True Coins.

Darius then rubbed his chin. His plan was naturally to replicate the spirit race without the trash humans who enslaved them for war and then raise them to be his won war machines.

It should be known that even Eternals and Dragons of that game\'s world respected spirits and called them faeries - not fairy like the Chinese usage, but as in the Western usage - and lamented their fate.

Spirits were made of mana merged with the will of Rank 2 Rebirth. How to regenerate that phenomenon was what he was now considering as well as whether to introduce Rank 2 World and split it into four so that the Etrangers could exist.

He had no plans to have actual Eternals or Eternity Swords of that caliber because the prices were steep and controlling them with his current power was tough.

Darius hummed and looked up the price of Rebirth and World. Rebirth went for 3 million True Coins and World was 10 million True Coins, so Darius could only regretfully forgo his plans towards Gravitas for now.

When he was stronger and better equipped, he could find more ways to gather True Coins and afford such things.

For now, he closed the menu and stood up, deciding to leave his mage tower in the central part of Safemoon and travel to the southern part of Fallon.

He had let Gunner return from the frontlines to spend time with his family, and Darius planned to takeover from here so that his half-giant brother could enjoy life in peace.
