Strongest Mystic



'Wait, give me details.'

[Affirmative. I'll list the pros and cons of the fusion.

Pros:

1) After fusion, the special points for the completion of every task will increase by 50%. In special cases, the increase will be 100%.

2) The hidden quests will appear as the normal quests in the Task category. They will only be visible if the prince has the minimum level requirements.

3) Skill 'Intimidate' will be created. This skill will have more effect when used together with Dual Metamorphose.

4) Flat increase in stats:

『Health RR: 5 + 3 』|『 Arcane RR: 78 + 5 』|『IQ: 127 + 15 』

Cons:

1) The fusion will result in 'Remnant Will' to no longer exist.

2) As the prince is affected by a spirit bug, until Nyx is back the prince may have trouble facing people like Scarlett Chase, Mia Chase etc. ]

Ethan was still not used to the cringe titles but anyways, even though he wanted details about the harmony but this still did help. The prospect of fusion was attractive.

The best being that the 'remnant will' would no longer exist. He also got to know that he was affected by some spirit bug. 

'Wait, why didn't I ask the system about this before?' Ethan lamented, disliking his present dumb state.

But still, Ethan was hesitating. The second con looked way too daunting to him. 

'Isn't there no way to contact Nyx?' He asked the system interface. Though he didn't think he'd get an answer.

[There is.]

'... why didn't you tell me this before?'

[The prince had not shown any intention of contacting Nyx. Here is how the prince can get in touch with Nyx.]

Ethan went dazed when he read the instructions. If it were old him, he'd have first gone to a comparatively safer place. But currently he followed the steps.

Ethan closed his eyes and imagined a never-ending vast lake in a dark space. The lake was covered by a faint fog. He only had to do that as the rest was handled by the system.

Ethan suddenly felt his body feel extremely light as if he was floating and then he was inside his heart lake.

It was exactly the same as he imagined it before. Just that he was in a small wooden boat that slowly floated to an unknown destination. In front of him sat a woman, a mesmerizing smile on her face.

The woman before him appeared to be mature, with striking gray eyes that seemed to look right through him. Her wavy creamy-blonde hair cascaded down her back, covering her left eye with stylish bangs. She wore a fitted pair of black straight-leg trousers, paired with a long black coat that boasted a daring V-neckline, revealing her ample cleavage. He had a sudden urge to taste them.

However, there was something peculiar about her appearance. Certain areas of her body and clothes appeared to be pixelated and glitchy, almost as if she were not real, but rather a faulty creation.

"Nyx?" Ethan asked, his voice laced with uncertainty.

"You can call me Nyx," she replied in a calm and collected manner, her voice carrying the same alluring tone as the original Nyx. "But in truth, I am merely a residual will, left behind by her to oversee Ethan Chase's remnant will."

Nyx knew what he would question so she told everything to him. Her original plan was to improve the system and herself by using obsidian fragments and the modified rave virus she had suppressed. She also got a spiritual form as it would be more convenient for Ethan that way when later he'd have the ability to explore the aspects of soul.

When she was halfway done through things, suddenly the heart lake got attacked by strange spirit bugs. The rave virus that was under her control took advantage of this and also created trouble. 

Ethan could also be seriously affected by them so Nyx decisively enclosed herself and the troublemakers in a space, to take care of them once and for all.

Nyx had also left behind a will of hers to monitor the remnant will and try to complete the things she was doing. It would not be exactly the same as what she intended but it would still be good.

"Will Nyx be alright?" Ethan couldn't help but worry about her.

Nyx's will smiled. "I am not like the remnant will as in I cannot exist without my original spirit. So I know she's alright, trust me."

Ethan slightly relaxed and asked. "Can you reach out to her?"

The will smiled bitterly. "I can send a message there but cannot receive it."

Ethan sighed, accepting the situation. He almost told the will to send a message that he missed Nyx but stopped himself. Otherwise, Nyx would undoubtedly take pleasure in teasing him relentlessly.

Ethan then inquired about the harmony and the changes Nyx was making in the system. He wanted to know everything the will was aware of regarding the situation.

Ethan watched as Nyx's Will suddenly grew agitated, her form trembling with an intensity that surprised him. Despite his confusion, he couldn't help but appreciate the way her chest heaved with excitement. However, his amusement was short-lived as the glitchy area began to spread, intensifying the situation.

"Hey, what's going on?" Ethan asked urgently. "Has something happened to Nyx in that other space?"

"I'm fine," Nyx's Will replied, after taking a moment to calm down. She settled back, and Ethan's next words made her pout.

"I don't care about you. Did something happen to Nyx?"

However, her expression softened into a smile, and her gaze grew gentle. "Don't worry about her. Like I said before, I was created only to monitor the remnant Will and complete the system updates. Now that the system updates are almost complete, and you're about to fuse with the remnant Will, my job is almost over. After that, I'll disappear."

"I still haven't decided if I want to go through with this fusion thing. I don't even understand why it's happening, and there's the issue of me not being able to control myself around Scarlett, Mia, or anyone else," Ethan voiced his concerns.

She giggled. "I know you will."

She then proceeded to tell him that Nyx would be over with virus and those bugs and what not in a day or two.

This was a good opportunity to take care of the troublemaker 'remnant will' as this harmony might not come in the near future.

There were criteria for this harmony to take place. Ethan would have to experience everything that late Ethan Chase had experienced in his final moments, as well as what he himself wanted to experience. This would include a range of emotions, from love and happiness to regret and agony, even life and death experiences, all in a short amount of time.

It was a tall order, and experiencing all of these things again would undoubtedly be something that Ethan wouldn't want.

"So what you're suggesting is that…" he trailed off.

Nyx's will nodded, "You should do it."

Ethan took a deep breath and made his decision, "Let's do it then."
