Omega Summoner

Chapter 1926: Am I Jonah Again?

Old Man Pann is impressed that Adrianʼs dimensional sense seem to be more perceptive than others. Even other Arch Demons will have difficulty in sensing the movement of Cosmic Cetacea in different dimensions. The movement of Bessie, the Cosmic Cetacea, is not just vanishing and appearing in different places.

One would think that the Cosmic Cetacea perceive space like the Daemos but that is not true. The bodies of the Cosmic Cetacea would dive into other dimensions that are in a different layer than the real one. This gives the illusion that they vanish to those that only use their sight. For a perceptive Daemos, they can feel that something is moving within the dimensions.

Just now, Bessie moved through five different dimensions and appeared in the area where Adrian is. This is how the Cosmic Cetacea hunts for their prey as even they have monsters that are for their diet. They would often feed on the energy of dead planets if they cannot find their prey after all. They are born hunters in the wide universe and different dimensions.

If the Cosmic Cetacea was a monster that eats humans, then their species might have dominated the universe already. Another point is that the Cosmic Cetacea are incredibly durable, but they are incredibly sensitive to pain. If they feel even just a slight prick in their bodies, then they would flee immediately to other dimensions.

”That was close.” Adrian thought to himself as he does not know much about the Cosmic Cetacea.

Not only does he have no idea what Bessie can do but he also does not know any weaknesses. Adrian rarely sees Bessie as it would often float around in space according to Old Man Pann. Bessie only comes down when Old Man Pann calls upon it which is why he barely knows anything about it. All he knows is that Bessie can transport them via eating them, but this time is different.

”If I get eaten then I will die.” Adrian thought as he once again used enhanced blink to escape.

Bessie would dive into nothingness and appear just below Adrian. He almost got eaten on the next instance of Bessie resurfacing as he barely sensed her. Adrian no longer has any blinks to use which means he would need to use other ways. By the fourth time, Adrian had to use time magic in order to make himself faster.

”How long did I last already?” Adrian thought as he quickly looked at the timer.

[Remaining Time: 4 minutes 10 seconds.]

”What?!” I barely lasted a minute!” Adrian muttered but he had no time to literally stay still.

With his wings and body coated in increased time magic, Adrian flew far enough in just a few seconds. He managed to evade once more but Bessie seems to have given up on chasing him. Bessie emitted a powerful cry that reverberated in the entire Paradox Planes.

[All of the surrounding space has suddenly been seized by the Cosmic Cetacea as it has used its Spatial Disruption Call.]

”I can just rip the dimension if anything. I have the Rift Manipulator passive.” Adrian thought as he knows that he will be able to somewhat bypass the locked dimension.

[Bessi is now using Black Hole Feeding.]

Adrian saw the notification and thought what it is, but he easily found out. Bessie started to create a literal black hole on its opened mouth and started to suck on all the living beings in the area. It seems that Bessie has perfect control over the black hole since she does not attract the large asteroids in the Paradox Planes. All she sucks in together with air are small pebbles and Adrian.

Adrian used his wings to the utmost, but he could feel the power of the suction. He now knows what it feels like to be on the other end of a black hole. It is usually him that is sending other people inside a black hole that he has created. His wings are starting to ache just because he was flying away for dear life.

”This cannot be. I must attack her. I need to at least stop her from continuing her skill.” Adrian thought as he created space mines around Bessie.

All of the space mines were shattered without even activating as the black hole inside of Bessieʼs mouth would devour them. Space itself was getting shredded by Bessie which now made Adrian fear for his life. Adrian applied both force and time magic on his body just to make sure that he will not get caught but it is draining his mana quickly.

In just a span of five seconds, Adrianʼs mana dropped to 20% just from protecting himself.

”Paradox! Counter a black hole with another black hole!” Adrian stated as he infused his Vortex Spell unto Paradox and sent it straight towards Bessieʼs mouth.

Paradox sped through the air as it is also being sucked by the black hole created by Bessie. Just as Paradox was about to be sucked inside the black hole, the ego weapon exploded into a black hole that is the same size that Bessie has created. The two black holes started interfering with each other as Adrian is relieved since the stress on his wings lessened.

The suction power of Bessieʼs black hole was decreased.

”Now I need to fly away! Adrian thought as he suddenly turned around only to be surprised by a large gaping mouth of a Cosmic Cetacea.

[You cannot use Enhanced Blink at the moment due to the spatial instability.]

”Crap! I am going to be Jonah again.” Adrian uttered as his last sight was pure black.

[You have been eaten by Bessie, the Cosmic Cetacea.]

[Your Origin Magic Evaluation has ended in failure.]

[Time remaining: 3 minutes and 30 seconds]

”Owoooh!” Bessie cried as she was victorious.

”Good girl. It seems that the young brat still needs more work to be done. You can now release him from your mouth.” Old Man Pannʼs voice could be heard from the outside.

”Owwuuhh!” Bessie cried as she slowly opened her mouth.

”So, how is it experiencing your inadequacies in Origin Magic?” Old Man Pann stated.

”It smells like old fish with a hint of basil apparently.” Adrian commented as he was now filled with Cosmic Cetacea slobber.

”You are lucky that Bessie did not swallow you as she said that you are not to her taste.” Old Man Pann stated.

”Thanks… I guess.” Adrian replied as he felt a bit downtrodden due to his string of failures.

”I thought that I would fare better since I can use all three magic systems of Origin Magic, but it was not that close. I only lasted a minute and thirty seconds.” Adrian muttered.

”Thank you, Bessie. You may return now.” Old Man Pann stated.

”Wooh!” Bessie cried before dipping into nothingness again and vanishing.

”No need to be so gloom, brat. You did far better than I imagined as you have yet to even master Origin Magic. Your evaluation is about 30% mastery over Origin Magic. You can use it, but you use it by parts and not combined which is why it is low. It might have been lower if your dimensional perception was not sharp enough.

I have observed that you can sense Bessie as even the other elders will have difficulty on that except for Ascalor since that brat is a master of space.” Old Man Pann stated.

”Still, I expected a mastery of at least 40% since I somewhat did well on the other magic systems. You said that I scored low because I only used them separately but there are reasons why we have separate magic systems in Origin Magic. Temporal Magic is already volatile on its own and the same is true for both Spatial Magic and Force Magic.” Adrian replied.

”Volatile if handled incorrectly. Remember that we are Daemos, brat. Our very existence itself is volatile due to being crafted from a remnant of the Void dimension itself. If one can fuse time, space, and force magic then that would be us.” Old Man Pann stated.

”It is quite difficult to believe you when I have yet to see a spell that uses all three of them.” Adrian commented.

”It seems that you do not believe me. Look closely then.” Old Man Pann stated as he suddenly changed into his combat form.

Old Man Pann suddenly made time shudder as he condensed temporal magic onto his left hand while he also condensed spatial magic on his right hand. Temporal Magic looked like a light pink color while Spatial Magic looked like a deep purple. As soon as he fused the two energies together, a powerful wave of energy was released but the two energies were not perfectly fusing.

”Watch closely now.” Old Man Pann stated as he now uses force magic to pressure the two energies into fusing and they did. A powerful orb of condensed Origin Magic energy is now in front of Adrianʼs very eyes.
