Legacy of the Void Fleet

[Congratulations, Host, for achieving complete victory over the Flaming Bear.]

As the message faded, Kallus felt the restrictions placed upon him by the Supreme Being lift. He could now ascend to the peak of Master Rank 9. He exhaled deeply, only for another notification to appear:

[As a reward for passing the trial with complete dominance, the host has received the following rewards...]

[Ding! Congratulations, Host, for receiving the following rewards:]

Void Tower (??? - Special)

Primal wolf of destruction (??? - Mythical)

Quantum Manipulation (???)

....

[Void Tower - Supreme Grade Treasure]

The Void Tower was a construct beyond mortal comprehension, a true artifact forged by the Supreme Being itself.

It could access the Sacred Timeline, reaching across infinite realities, multiversal branches, and even higher dimensions. Its purpose?

- To summon legendary warriors—masters of all paths, who had long since perished in their timelines.

- These warriors, pulled from history, manifest within the tower to serve as guides, mentors, or adversaries in real-time combat scenarios.

- Anyone who wielded the Void Tower could train against the strongest beings in existence—at their rank—refining their skills and understanding by fighting gods, emperors, celestial knights, abyssal warlords, and cosmic titans who had once ruled the battlefield.

- Each warrior retained their original combat style, experience, and battle instincts, making every encounter as real as a life-and-death struggle.

This wasn’t just a training ground—it was a path to absolute mastery.

Kallus’s breath hitched for a moment as he processed the sheer insanity of this treasure.

Kallus’s breath hitched for a moment as he processed the sheer insanity of this treasure.

Throughout the battle, he had identified several flaws in his combat style. The most glaring one? His lack of real battle experience.

Despite his countless hours of practice, mastering every weapon under the guidance of his unique physique, soul, and bloodline, there was a stark difference between swinging a sword in the air and fighting a true opponent.

The knowledge embedded in his very being made him proficient—perhaps even perfect in form—but technique alone wasn’t enough.

”Each of my strikes should have been powerful enough to crush that bear… yet they weren’t.”

While the Flaming Bear’s high rank had played a role in resisting his attacks, Kallus knew that wasn’t the only reason. Battle instincts, adaptability, and the ability to react to an enemy’s movement in real-time—these were gaps in his skillset that no amount of solo training could completely fill.

But now?

With the Void Tower in his possession, that weakness would be erased.

A rare smile tugged at Kallus’s lips.

”This is the perfect gift…”

With this treasure, he could train against history’s strongest warriors, learning from those who had stood at the peak of their power.

In no time at all, he would bridge the gap.

And then…

”I’ll be unstoppable.”

Coming out of his daydream, Kallus shifted his focus to the second reward—the Primal Wolf of Destruction.

His eyes narrowed as he examined the notification. Unlike the Void Tower, which was a supreme-grade treasure this was … a living being.

”A Beast?”

Before he could process further, a sudden shift in the atmosphere made him turn.

BOOM!

A violent surge of primal energy erupted before him, distorting space itself. From within the chaos, a complete crimson-white egg emerged.

From within the swirling chaos, a crimson-white egg emerged, suspended in midair. Unlike ordinary eggs, this one pulsated with raw destruction energy, its shell adorned with intricate, glowing runes that flickered between crimson and silver.

Kallus’s gaze sharpened.

”An egg?”

His instincts screamed that this was no ordinary beast egg. The sheer pressure it emitted was overwhelming, as if a slumbering calamity lay within, waiting to awaken.

[Congratulations, Host, for obtaining the Primal Wolf of Destruction Egg-Fenrir.]

As the notification flashed before him, a surge of knowledge flooded Kallus’s mind. This was no ordinary beast—a special existence, born from destruction itself.

”Interesting.”

A smirk formed on his lips as he digested the information.

”A being of pure destruction... How fitting.

He reached out, his fingertips grazing the surface of the egg. The moment he touched it—

BOOM!

A surge of primal energy exploded from the egg, distorting the space around him. The very air crackled as destruction laws swirled in chaotic patterns. For a moment, Kallus felt a deep connection forming between him and the entity within.

The bond was taking shape—one that tethered him to the egg of Fenrir, the Wolf of Destruction. Deep within his consciousness, a small rune in the shape of a wolf emerged, a symbol of the yet-to-be-born beast and the link they now shared.

A surge of primal energy exploded from the egg, distorting space around Kallus. The very air crackled as destruction laws swirled in chaotic patterns, bending reality itself.

Then, with a thunderous boom, cracks began to spread across the egg’s surface. Within seconds, the upper shell shattered, revealing a small head peeking through.

The creature blinked, its deep blue eyes shimmering like the most precious gemstones, reflecting endless depths of wisdom despite its infancy. Its fur was as white as untouched snow, pristine and flawless, radiating an ethereal glow.

The tiny wolf cub tilted its head, looking around curiously before locking its gaze onto Kallus. Its eyes lit up with recognition, as if it had known him since time immemorial.

With a small, determined struggle, it shattered the rest of the eggshell and leaped forward.

Kallus, still stunned, instinctively reached out, his arms moving as if guided by fate itself. As soon as he caught the cub, he felt an undeniable warmth flood through him—a bond forming at the very core of his existence.

The tiny wolf nuzzled against his chest, then began licking his face, its small tail wagging with pure joy.

A rare, genuine smile formed on Kallus’s lips.

Kallus nudged the small wolf cub, a smirk tugging at the corner of his lips.

”So, you’re mine now, huh Fenrir.?”

The wolf tilted its head, clearly not fully understanding his words, but its eyes gleamed with an innocent curiosity.

Then, it let out a soft, happy whimper—a sound so pure, so filled with warmth that Kallus was momentarily taken aback.

Yet, somehow, he understood it perfectly.

It wasn’t just a sound. It was a message.

”Always.”

A rare chuckle escaped Kallus as he ran his fingers through the cub’s silky white fur, feeling the primal energy coursing through its small body.

”Heh, looks like I’ve got a little troublemaker on my hands.”

The wolf wagged its tiny tail, clearly pleased.

Kallus played with Fenrir for a while, feeding it some primal milk—a treasure he had just purchased from the system store—and letting it sleep in his hand.

[A/N: You all might be wondering—if Kallus is already an overpowered dragon after his soul awakening, why grant him a beast companion at all? After all, he is no longer human. Well, Kallus being a dragon is a closely guarded secret, a hidden trump card he won’t reveal unless necessary. And besides, who says a beast can’t have a beast companion of its own?]

As Fenrir snuggled into his palm, its tiny body rising and falling with each peaceful breath, Kallus finally shifted his attention to his final reward.

[Quantum Manipulation Skill Acquired.]

[Quantum Manipulation: This skill grants the user control over quantum phenomena, enabling manipulation of matter and energy at their most fundamental levels. This power allows for the alteration of particles, forces, and even the fabric of reality itself.]

(The skill itself is limited by the user’s rank and the depth of their imagination.)

Activation:

- 1st: Subatomic Manipulation: The user can control Energy, along with its core building blocks—such as mana and other fundamental forces—facilitating the transformation of elements and the creation or annihilation of matter.

- 2nd: Quantum Tunneling: The ability to pass through solid objects by traversing the quantum field, effectively allowing the user to move through barriers effortlessly.

- 3rd: Quantum Teleportation: Instantaneous relocation by entangling particles at two separate points, enabling the user to appear at a different location without traversing the space in between.

- 4th: Energy Manipulation: Harnessing and converting various forms of energy, including electromagnetic energy, zero-point energy, elemental energy, and even space and time to some extent, for offensive or defensive purposes.

- 5th: Quantum Manipulation: Scramble – This ability allows the user to manipulate and restructure the fundamental state of their enemies, altering the very essence they are composed of. Additionally, it disrupts their neurological processes, plunging them into complete chaos and causing a total loss of control over their body.

The moment he focused on the skill, a surge of arcane knowledge flooded his mind.

Kallus’s pupils contracted as he processed the sheer power of this ability.

Quantum Manipulation… The ability to alter the very building blocks of creation and destruction at a fundamental level.

He clenched his fist, feeling the laws of existence subtly bend around him.

With this, he could distort reality, phase through attacks, accelerate his movements to impossible speeds, or even destabilize the mana and other forms of energy present, throwing them into a state of complete chaos. Among other effects, the possibilities with this ability were infinite.

And with his innate power over creation and destruction, the things Kallus could achieve were truly limitless. Thinking of this, his eyes twinkled like stars.
