After all the experimentations with the Void Attribute Magic, I decided to calm down and move back my main mind to my main body in my castle, where everything was going as smoothly as always, everyone was still enjoying breakfast, and there was not any disturbance within this harmony.

However, what the Void Attribute made my experience was something… incredibly unique, to say the least. Having entered into another 'plane' or 'world', which was vastly different from Genesis and Earth made my mind a bit chaotic, but I think I am fine now.

This just shows how weak I truly am, despite how strong I have become, it still completely nothing compared to those with the power to actually travel through these planes while being almost unhindered… Such as the System Master and the Supreme God of Space and Creation.

I sigh as I decide to glance at my Available Main Classes again, as I notice two new ones had appeared…

[Available Main Classes]

[Mirage Demon Arch Wizard], [Labyrinth Master], [Voracious Sin Eater], [Grand Tamer of Abyssal Demons], [Luxuria], [Demiurge], [Venomous Divine Soul User], [Mystical Dryad Matriarch], [Chaotic Summoner of Devastation], [Uttu], [Samsara], [Huahet], [Phantasmal Yokai Conjurer Queen], [Chaotic Bestower], [Echidna], [Ragaraja], [Root of Life Magic Queen], [Aberrant Hermaphroditus], [Mutation, Change, and Evolution Matriarch Queen], [Nanna Suen], [One Thousands Weapon User], [Abyssal Necromancer Vampire Matriarch], [Supreme Druid of the Daughters of the Forest], [Aegis Shield User], [Lamashtu], [Phantasos], [Phobetor], [Legion], [Apophis], [Typhoeus], [Gungnir Spear User], [Divine Aura Fighter], [Inner Worlds Creator], [Shamash], [Isis], [Fulgora], [Lei Long], [Janus], [Zhulong], [Nuwa], [Aruna], [Ushas], [Sul-pa-e], [Ophion], [Divine Fire Soul Djinn], [Hephaestus Hammer User], [Shub-Niggurath], [Yog-Sothoth], [Labyrinthos], [Helios Successor], [Divine Ice Soul Fairy], [Kauket], [Primordial Beast of Self-Gluttony], [Amorphous Spatial Conqueror], [Eros], [God Annihilator], [Theseus], [Divine Living Dungeon], [Cthulhu], [Great Chaotic Abyssal Demon Queen], [Chaotic Queen Witch of Calamity] (New!), [Void Attribute Magician] (New!)

These two new Classes seem to have just generated after I awakened my Chaos Attribute Magic Skill and also acquired the Void Attribute Magic Skill. It might be obvious, but the Chaotic Queen Witch of Calamity must be an upgrade to the previous Chaos Witch Queen Class. Meanwhile, the Void Attribute Magician seems… like an oddly normal name for a Class, if I compare it to all the crazy names, I have for Classes… But I guess it fits, as I just got the Void Attribute.

I still have a bit over two thousand and one hundred Skill Points, enough for another Class Change. I am also considering if I should or not drink the Skill Points Elixirs…

After what I experienced, I really felt very weak, and this is once again, making my paranoiac mind go nuts, I have been always obsessed with power since I was reborn in Genesis. This is because, with it, I can live peacefully and happily…

But after this pseudo 'vibe check', I got a bit out of cockiness.

Yup, I have gotten into a good level of strength, but due to that, I got way too cocky. Now, I fear that it might bite me in the back at any time now.

This little awakening made my mind realize that I should grab everything I can as fast as possible, so I will just drink both Skill Points Elixirs and then, tomorrow I will open all the rewards I got from the Dungeon while eating anything that could be useful.

Later, we will get to the Dark Steppes, and get things done there.

Afterward… Perhaps I might go and stir chaos into Thanatos, and get rid of those annoyances before they grow too strong. Azuma Empire should go right afterward.

Then, I will go eat the Sin of Pride and avenge Brontes' tribe, and then eat Sloth too who is stupidly sleeping.

Haah… It sounds tiring to just think about it.

Wait, I guess I need to get a bit cocky, I want to take a break.

Stop, stop! No rushing now.

Let's go back to my cockiness.

No, wait, not so much…

Ah, let's make a perfect balance then. At least less than a month for resting in between these events should do it, right?

Anyways, too much rambling, time to change Classes.

[Mirage Demon Arch Wizard]

A Class unlocked by a powerful entity who has mastered the arts of Illusion and Mirage Magic to insane levels, to the point that it's illusions and achieves things never thought possible before.

This Class strengthens the user's Magic Skills to a great extent.

This Class offers an increase in MP and Magic, while also increasing the level of skills related to Illusion and Mirage Magic.

[Available Skills: None

[Exchangeable Stat Bonuses: [+400 MP and +200 Magic] (1500 SP) (Required to Complete the Class)

Quite simple, I guess it is just a boost, alright.

Ding!

[Kireina] changed Classes to [Mirage Demon Arch Wizard]!]

[Kireina] gained +200 MP and +200 Magic!]

[The Levels of the [Calamity Abyss Demoness Mirage-Attribute Magic; Level 7], [Transcendental Dream & Nightmares Source; Level 3], and [Great Arcane Magic: Level 1] Skills have increased!]

[Kireina] exchanged 1500 Skill Points for the [+400 MP and +200 Magic] (1500 SP) Stat bonus!]

[Kireina] gained +400 MP and +200 Magic!]

Oh, it leveled more than I thought… Hm, mu Mirage Magic is Level 8, two more levels to reach level 10 and maybe, finally awaken to something else.

What could it become? Transcendental Mirage Source?

…Or something else entirely?

Thinking back then, Illusion Magic has always been my strong asset, it helped me in a lot of things.

Anyways, I decide to drink both Skill Points Elixirs in one go as I have breakfast, their taste was quite milky and flavorful, quite sweet too. It was very similar to a milkshake, but perhaps the highest quality milkshake I've ever had in my life.

[By Drinking the Divine Elixirs, you have gained +20.000 Main Class Skill Points and Subclass Skill Points!]

[Kireina] learned the [Primordial Essence Elixir Spring: Level 1] Skill!]

The moment I drank the two Elixirs not only I felt as if my soul was nourished greatly, as all the pain I felt in while experiencing the Void Training disappeared within my soul, there was no tiredness nor soul fatigue… and well, there was also this Skill.

[Primordial Essence Elixir Spring: Level 1/10]

A Skill that disrupts the order of the world and molds the laws of existence.

By sacrificing the user's own Primordial Essence, it is possible to produce certain essences of various qualities and types according to the user's will.

These essences will appear in liquid elixir form and can be ingested by anyone to benefit from.

However, if the user ingests it, nothing will happen, and the used Primordial Essence will not be retrieved.

[Abilities: [Primordial Essence Conversion], [Experience Points Spring], [Skill Points Spring]

…Eh?

Isn't this… like, super crazy?

Wait a moment, is this for real?

I pinch my skin as I feel no pain.

Ah, right, I got Pain Nullification.

Well, anyway, yeah.

This is real.

Amazing, isn't it?

Fufufu…

With this, wouldn't it be possible to even transfer Experience Points and Skill Points to anyone?! What if I transfer a crapload of Experience Points, would someone level all the way up until godhood?

Wait for a second, perhaps this might become more useful whenever I raise to godhood, as Experience Points will not be as precious anymore…

But for now, I kind of got the power to grant Experience Points and Skill Points.

Of course, I will not give away my EXP, no way! If it means that I will go back in levels, it is a no.

However, perhaps I can use another 'Primordial Essence' or whatever to produce it without having to use mine, right?

For that case, I experiment a bit.

My dear Belle is near me, so I call her to my side.

"My love, Belle, come here," I said with a gentle smile.

"Hm? What is it, mommy?" she said, flying towards my lap as she sat down on my thighs. I caressed her hair as I explained to her what I had just gotten.

"Eh?! Really?!" she asked.

"Indeed, would you like to try it out?" I asked.

"Err… Sure?" she said.

"Very well then, here, lip the tip of my finger," I said, as I extended my index finger towards Belle, which she licked.

Then, I activate the Skill and used the ability 'Primordial Essence Conversion'.

Suddenly, a new menu appeared within my sight.

[Current Primordial Essence: 5.430.809.420]

[Primordial Essence Conversion Rate into Experience Points: 1/1.000]

[Primordial Essence Conversion Rate into Skill Points (Both Main Skill Points and Subclass Skill Points): 1/10]

Wait! This new thing, I did not even know I had it!

What is even Primordial Essence? And why do I have so much? Is it a thing that can be spent? Is it different than Divine Energy?

I try to Appraise it within a split of a second.

[Primordial Essence: A Hidden Value within anyone's Soul, a combination of the user's Life Energy, Magic Energy, Soul Energy, and Divine Energy. It is the substance that makes an entity exist, and the primordial pillar of a soul's existence, when the number reaches zero, the user stops existing]

Wait, do I have so much because I have eaten Gods then?! And I can spend this thing to create Experience Points and Skill Points… thing is, I cannot use them.

Wait for a second, this essence… is also kind of like my true and actual HP, right? I mean even if my body dies, my existence will keep existing as long as I have this energy. Now it makes a bit of sense, and what if I use Divinity Devouring on Gods? Is it a Skill that directly targets the Primordial Essence? Is this why I can kill gods who are believed to be 'immortal'?

Then, Primordial Essence is the actual HP of anything in existence, it seems...

Anyways, I wonder how much do Supreme Gods have, if I have billions, would they have like quadrillions? No, way more, I guess they have so much it's hard to actually say the name of the number, but it would probably have over twenty digits.

I use this Primordial Essence, it seems that only one digit can produce one thousand EXP, so I feed it to Belle, a slight drop of blue-colored liquid falls into her tongue, as she licks it gently.

"Hm? It's sweet… is this a new thing you created- Huh? My EXP went up! It is just as you said, mommy!" said Belle.

"Amazing… Now try this one, my dear," I said, as I give Belle Skill Points, only 10, by spending one point of Primordial Essence.

Once again, I feel like a small, very tiny piece of my existence becomes something else, which drops from within my finger.

Belle licks it as she enjoys the sweet flavor.

"I got Skill Points! Both! Main Class and Subclass!" said Belle.

"Amazing… Although this Skill cannot benefit me, it can benefit anyone else than me…"

After a bit, I had to explain this to all of my family which got all crazy over it… However, I was still changing Classes, so they waited for me to be done with as they continued having breakfast while discussing between themselves.

Perhaps in the future if I amass more Primordial Essence, I would be able to bring anyone in the mortal realm all the way to godhood in one go, it will make the process very quick and nice, so everyone could always catch up a bit.

Skill Points can also bring a lot to any of my family and allies, gifting them for them to grow stronger quickly would make their progress easy.

Thing is, Primordial Essene is not something like Divine Dungeon Points, they are not just Points to spend without any consequences. They are actually like my own actual and true Health Bar.

So, I believe that, if I spend way too much, I might end up weakening, due to that, I might not spend it too deliberately. However, as I keep amassing more through the devouring of Gods or, some other means that I cannot figure out, for now, it should be possible for me to do so in the near future.

There were also many other things in my mind, such as could it be possible to give this Skill to someone else, so they can feed me with EXP?

But anyone would not have as enough Primordial Essence, except Gods, and I am not even sure if it's possible to gift this Skill. I know that I can gift Skills through the Empire System to my wives and even children, but the limit is often compared with the capacities of the person I am gifting the Skill to, if they are not capable of doing the same feats as me, it will be impossible for them to acquire the Skill.

There was also the other possibility, of infusing this Skill into Equipment, but the moment I tried, it did not work, this Skill seems to be very special, something like this was impossible.

But I am hopeful that someday, it might be possible… I have already thought about creating a new living being that could harbor large amounts of Primordial Essence to use as an EXP and Skill Points generator… if there could be a way to transfer this Primordial Essence from my end to that being, it would be even better, but for now, that is only but a fleeting dream.

For now, I will contain myself from doing anything regarding this, perhaps until I can get more answers and figure out more things.

I glance back at my available Classes with more than twenty thousand extra Skill Points to spend, with a bit of excitement.

Oof, there is a new Class Already?!

At the end of the window of Available Classes, there was a new Class named 'Goddess of the Spring of Primordial Essence'… I bet the effects are simply to enhance the Skill, isn't it?

Yep, it is, and it cost… over fifteen thousand Skill Points! That is certainly a lot.

Well, this one will surely be the end game, so I will not touch it for now…
