Chapter 1299 - Systems And Primordials! I
Subjugate another Champion!
These words rang into Noah's mind as his eyes released a burst of light, locking onto Eckert more closely as the Primordial Eye that was always hidden from others flashed while he tried to discern any information he could on Eckert.
He…received nothing in return as he was surprised, watching as the now carefree Eckert spoke out as if he knew something.
"I'm surprised that I can't pull up any information on you, and I'm guessing it must be the same on your end? How about this, I'll take the first leap of faith and reveal more about myself…then we can talk much more freely."
Eckert's figure flashed with light as Noah saw his left eye change colors, the blue being wiped away as a glorious gold was revealed within! This gold color showed an iris etched with multiple stacked triangles as it was very much similar to Noah's own Primordial Eye!
'Ho?' Noah could not hide his surprise when he saw this, a smile appearing on his face as his own eyes flashed and lowered the hidden barrier around them.
…!
Eckert's smug expression was wiped away as he looked at Noah's glimmering gold and red eyes, his lips then clicking as he showed a disbelieving expression!
"Are you sure you're not a Champion? How did you already obtain both the Primordial Eye and the Eye of Ruination?"
The surprise was evident in Ecker's face as Noah was the one smiling now, his reply coming while he found himself gazing towards the ancient broken sword behind this Usurper.
"Runic Dao Lines of Ruination and the Primordial Dao, how did you obtain the Primordial Eye?"
"...From the Champion I recently Subjugated…" Eckert replied while sighing and shaking his head in defeat, his voice continuing to ring out. "I want to ask you how you were able to deconstruct and reconstruct supreme Daos that are literally required to carry out this process….but it matters not. I'll just accept that you are as ridiculous if not more as I focus on the task at hand…why did you reach out?"
His blue and gold eyes shone as Eckert asked this, Noah liking his straightforwardness as he waved his hands and caused the eruption of Primordial and Ruination Essence to form into two grandiose thrones! One behind him, and one behind Eckert as he motioned for the both of them to sit down.
"And of course you can still use the dao essence of the Primordial Dao and the Dao of Ruination even though they're now Dao Lines…why not…" Eckert shook his head in acceptance while lamenting, sitting on the throne domineeringly as his imposing manner wasn't the least bit lower than Noah himself!
Two existences with the same first names sat across each other, the Primordial Eyes of each of them being one of their many similarities as they began a discussion for the second time in their lives!
—
As the meeting between two Noah's began, silent waves of destiny emanated from it that even they did not feel.
A few key figures also felt something…but they also did not know what it was!
In the depths of the Primordial Empire, Aegon was languidly lying in a golden pool with half of his body submerged, the overabundant Runic Dao Lines on his body releasing an oppressive pressure all around as he looked like a sculpted emperor!
"Hmm?"
Yet at this time, he raised his head and gazed towards a far away place quizzically. Below the shining gold pool, a head full of luscious golden hair rose up as the figure of Havenbreaker could be seen rising as the drops of liquid further magnified her beauty, her eyes turning up as her sonorous voice rang out.
"What's wrong?"
"I…am not sure…" Aegon seemed thoughtful as Havenbreaker smiled and pulled her body closer to him.
"You're the strongest existence in this Reality. Stop worrying over nothing and let us enjoy our time.." Her words shook him out of his thoughts as he gazed upon her, one being shocked to find that behind his impassive eyes that gazed over everything with utter arrogance…there was a hint of a deep emotion when he looked at Havenbreaker.
His wide hands held on to her head as this emotion intensified in his eyes, and one would be easily swayed into believing it was love. But…it was another emotion that was more often than not mistaken for love. It was an intense emotion of possessiveness!
In another direction within a vast Primordial Sea in this same Reality, the form of an enormous Draconic-Elephant Primordial Beast rose his head up as well- his three eyes squinting carefully as they found nothing to grasp on to!
In another direction extremely far away that wasn't even within this Reality, the regal figure of a pristine veiled Primordial also raised her head, the expression within not being able to be ascertained as one could still be confident that the hidden eyes were shining with power and danger!

"You want to know even more about Primordials, Champions, and Systems…"
Eckert languidly sat on the throne made of Ruination as he gazed towards Noah with a smile. They had begun talking as Noah wanted to obtain more information on the enemies he was facing. If one knew the ins and outs of their enemies, they would eventually be victorious!
"You know, after our last meeting, I changed my approach to how I moved as it was the reason I reached where I am so fast. Can you guess what I did after we met?"
Eckert posed a question instead as Noah laid back on his own throne as he spoke confidently.
"You were in the process of reforging your destroyed System, yes? It naturally has to do with Champions and Primordials."
"Haha, yes! Champions! After meeting you, I realized I shouldn't be trying to run away from Champions when I traversed Realities. After meeting you, I actually began chasing after them as eventually…I managed to Subjugate one!"
WAA!
Eckert spoke as his eyes released bright blue and golden lights, his voice continuing to echo out.
"In some Realities, the Champions are ridiculously overpowered as they can already stand against even the horrendous Cosmic Primordial Beasts. But in other Realities, the Champions are still just growing up similar to how I was. Weak Champions, even with their ridiculous Systems- if one prepares enough and knows how they move…one could take these Champions down!"
"And this was exactly what I did." The voice of Eckert calmed down as it became deep, gazing towards Noah as he continued to speak in a mesmerizing fashion. "I Subjugated a Champion who held a ridiculous thing called the Supreme Necromancer System…I can't even begin to tell you what a catapult that was for my power!"
THRUM!
The air around them vibrated as Noah heard something as fantastical as a Supreme Necromancer System! His mind buzzed with information as he asked about something Halcyon had told him before.
"Have you come across anything like the Invincible System?"
The Invincible System! The power that Aegon the Conqueror relied on…this was what Noah wanted to know about the most.
"Oh?" The question caused Eckert to look towards Noah in surprise as he replied with curiosity. "Why, yes. But if you truly aren't the Champion of this Reality...I'm afraid it is superficial information that will not help you much if that is the enemy you face in your Reality!"
Eckert's eyes shone with care as he gazed out into the blankness around them and spoke while his eyes seemed to be recalling a distant memory.
"Before my original body perished under the hands of the Primordial that granted me my system, he spoke very briefly about the Invincible System. All I gained from it apart from its name was the Primordial responsible for designing this System."
…!
"It is a Primordial known as Cecil!"
WAA!
Cecil!
The name of the veiled Primordial that Noah had bookmarked and obtained the Nomological Edict of Samsara from now rang out in his mind!
