Divine Path System
chapter-432

Varian stared at Enigma behind the wall deeply for a moment and waved his hand.

"Master!" Boo yelled in horror as the entrance opened. The walls were the only guarantee to Varian's safety.

Being open to level 8 and level 9 was too dangerous.

In the next moment, a terrifying aura rose as Enigma and Blue Flash exited the room.

Enigma locked her aura on Varian, causing him to feel as if a truck was placed on his back.

"By releasing me, you're placing yourself in a vulnerable position." Enigma said lightly and increased the aura pressure.

"Kuh." Varian wiped the sweat off his forehead and breathed heavily. With a confident smile, he said.

"First, the moment you show any killing intent towards me, I am assured of ending you." Varian lied with a confident face and hurriedly used his authority in ghost ship to mute Boo.

'But master, we don't have any such capability.' Boo's words which were supposed to be said out loud were only heard in his mind.

Varian sighed inwardly. Thankfully, he was quick. Or his bluff would've been blown by Boo itself.

'Boo, just pretend. Put up an act.' He urged the stupid ghost.

'Acting? Sure!' Boo cheered and grumbled the next moment. 'I can't speak.'

'Oh, right.' Varian removed the mute.

Enigma was staring at Varian who went silent all of a sudden. 'Is he seriously thinking of the next line?' She wondered.

Her thoughts were disrupted by a cute voice as a white ghost appeared in front of them.

Thumping its little chest, it declared.

"I, the super cute AI, Boo warn you, if you try anything funny, I have the capability to end you a million times before you can touch my master's hair."

Blue Flash's gaze alternated between Boo and Varian, who simply turned his head away and covered his face.

This was supposed to be a warning. But when Boo did it, it had no deterrent effect.

It was more like a cute little girl or cute little boy warning adults.

"I see." Enigma nodded at Boo's words and looked at Varian.

After she was injured, her tri-color hair had turned into silvery white and her tri-color eyes had turned into violet.

They were more 'real' than those fantastical tri-color eyes,

"I believe your threat." Enigma rolled her eyes. Clearly, she didn't. If anything, she must be laughing inside.

"Secondly, I trust you." Varian shrugged and reported a better reason.

"Trust? But you hardly know me." Enigma scoffed. "If you value your life, you shouldn't trust people easily."

Saying so, she increased the aura pressure on him, causing his legs to shake.

Varian stopped holding back and released all his auras. They quickly broke Enigma's aura lock, causing her to widen her eyes in shock.

"Y-You!" The expression, if only in her eyes, was priceless.

Varian smirked. "I do know you want something and are working towards it. I also know that we're in the middle of space.

I'm pefectly sure that if you attack me, then this ship will stop and we'll all get killed by patrol teams.

And you wouldn't want that. So, I'll be safe.

I trust you in the sense that you're a rational person who has her own interests."

Enigma finally exhaled and following Varian's gesture, sat on a couch. Blue Flash sat beside her.

Varian snapped his fingers and a couch appeared a few meters away from Enigma.

"Oh, and one more thing." Varian turned to Boo. "Travel in the abyss patrol region. Humans won't come there."

"That's actually a good idea." Boo said and ghost ship quickly crossed the planetoids and entered the abyss sphere of influence.

Here, only abyss space shuttles patrolled and human ships didn't enter. So, even if their location was disclosed, humans wouldn't be able to enter.

'I guess that temporarily solves the problem of tracking, eh.' Varian thougth and walked towards the couch.

Naturally, the distance between him and Enigma decreased and after a certain point, Varian experienced the repulsive feeling again.

His body pushed him to move away from her. It's like his body was pushed away from her. He flinched and stepped back.

As high awakeners, Enigma and Blue Flash immediately found Varian's abnormal reaction.

To Blue Flash, it appeared like Varian was deliberately stepping away from them.

"Varian, do you think we'll harm you?" She said with a disappointed voice.

Varian pushed the couch a bit farther with his telekinetic power and sat down with a curious expression.

He was about to answer Blue Flash when he saw Enigma's shoulders sagging.

"Enigma, you know what's happening with me, right?" He asked.

Enigma raised her head and nodded lightly. Her voice was heavy as she said. "Your body…it absolutely repulses hybrids."

"What?" Varian raised his voice in surprise.

Then it suddenly hit him like a truck. "All hybrids? You mean Sia too…?"

Enigma nodded stiffly. "Without your knowledge, Sia did approach you a few times. The result was similar."

Bang!

"Bullshit!" Varian slammed the couch, blasting it to pieces.

In agitation, he walked towards Enigma, only to experience the same feeling again.

"Argh!" Varian clenched his fists and closed his eyes. Anger wouldn't help.

Calming his emotions, he opened his eyes and went back to a new couch. "Do you know why this happens? And can I solve it?"

If this condition persisted, even if he united with Sia one day, he wouldn't even be able to get closer to her.

But worse than that, he'd be repulsed by her mere presence. And Varian couldn't bear such thought.

"It should be…beacuse of your specialty." Enigma answered slowly. "And solving it, I think only you'd know."

Varian fell silent at her words.

His mom's wish was 'save Sia'. And his goal was 'meet Sia'.

Yet obstacle after obstacle kept blocking him. It was as if the world was conspiring against him.

But Varian was determined to bend the world if necessary.

"I'll find a solution for sure." Varian said out loud, but mostly for himself.

At the same time, he consulted the system which was on a silent protest.

'System, why is this happening? How do I solve it? Any answers, clues or even hints?' He asked in hope.

[….]

'Ah, come on! You're the best system ever! No one in the solar system, no, in the entire milkway can compare to you.' Varian started praising his system. His system had an ego.

So, it worked.

[Not just in Milkyway, but even in all galaxies, the system has no parallel.] It replied with proud robotic voice

"…" Varian wasn't sure if it was simply bragging or being honest. But it didn't matter now.

'So, about the repulsion…'

[It's something you can solve, but it really needs your dedication.]

And then it fell silent.

'Hey, give more hints.'

[….]

'Some clues at least?'

[….]

Varian rolled his eyes and stopped asking.

Just knowing that it's a solvable case put him at ease. Now, all he had to was try and solve the problem.

But that could be set aside for later, for now…

Varian's gaze focused on Enigma.

"Enigma, ther—" His words were interupted by the fierce shaking of the ghost ship followed by a huge sound.

BOOM!
