My Idle Gaming System-Novel

An Aether Universal Law Crystal!

Out of all the loot that Noah had received, this was the one he looked forward to the most!

The 100 Diamond Cores were incredible, the 20,000 Diamond Upgrade Crystals were even more wondrous, but the Aether Universal Law Crystal...that was something so rare that it drove the destiny of the beings of an entire Realm.

Yet Noah had received it after his first Infinite Crucible run where he utilized Crucible Points to form waves of Aetherbourne Dimensional Beasts!

His body and the figures of his Units were teleported into the Waiting Room as the Waves had ended, and Noah's hungry eyes couldn't wait any longer as he opened his inventory and pulled out the crystal that glimmered with an intense purple luster.

The purple crystal looked like an octahedron, being something that fit in the palm of his hands as it pulsed with intense light that seemed to want to bury into his hands! Its description came up as his eyes focused on it.

[Aether Universal Law Crystal](Minor) :: A crystal that contains unique properties, its essence denser than even normal Diamond Cores. It is capable of propelling the advancement of the Universal Law of Aether by anyone capable of absorbing it. As it is a Minor Crystal, it is only capable of increasing the comprehension of the Universal Law by .1%.

…!

Its description was wonderful enough by itself that Noah made the intention, sending his thoughts forward as the purple colored crystal began to shine with a bright light...this light sinking into his palm as he began to absorb it!

Weeks after his transmigration into this wondrous new Realm, he forged his path forward as he absorbed a Universal Law Crystal to begin comprehending the natural Laws of the Universe!

As one being made advancements in one region, so did another.

Drax, the being that the long gone Crown Prince of the Ethereal Realm had called upon...this being had made his way towards the location that the coordinates of the communication medallion were lost as he didn't even bother letting the other beings he worked with know what he found!

As someone that managed the farming of Dimensional Rifts in multiple Worlds and Realms, his pay depended on the highest rank of a Rift that was found in the lands he managed.

Getting his hands on a Diamond Ranked Rift that was an Aether Element Rift capable of rarely dropping a Universal Law Crystal...such a thing would propel him to a high status as it would guarantee a monthly pay of at least one Low Tier Universal Law Crystal!

RUMBLE!

His figure streaked across space as many thoughts flowed in his mind, his body clad in flames as he looked like a being that was naturally born from the most hellish locations. But this was merely his comprehensions in the Law of Fire that he had stepped on by choosing this type of Universal Law Crystal as his compensation for all the Worlds and Realms he took care of.

As for his body floating freely in space with a few planetary bodies being seen not too far from him...it was of course due to the fact that this being was stably in the peak of the PLATINUM Realm!

As for his strongest point, it was of course his comprehensions in the normal Law of Fire, his comprehensions having reached over 20% as even with this, he was capable of easily sweeping the floor with the past Ethereal Emperor who barely comprehended less than a percentage of a High Tier Law.

Even if it was a High Tier Law, if one barely held comprehensions in it...they would not be able to utilize as much power as a being that held a high percentage in another Universal Law!

WAA!

The figure of Drax came to a stop in a certain location as flames spread out all around him, looking at the region in front of him as this was where he would begin his search. He would search until he found the Ethereal Realm hidden in the folds of space...and he would then bring its strongest natives under his heel as he offered this new Realm Colony to elevate his position even further.

As for who or what he would offer the Ethereal Realm as a Realm Colony to?

"The Order of the Primal Dimensional Rulers...I will ascend its ranks for sure!"

RUMBLE!

His eyes flashed with a sharp light as his aura began to spread out and begin his search, his voice that echoed out across space revealing some information of what organization he belonged to as this being searched for the Ethereal Realm!

---

Within the Ethereal Realm itself, the natives within were experiencing a tremendous amount of changes!

This was all due to the cohesive and unified movements of multiple Diamond Ranked experts, these powerful beings coming out of their high castles as they spread their power and influence over the three Continents while commanding Golden Blessed...all of them not waging war or tyranny as they moved to establish order and provide resources.

Resources!

Whether it was dilapidated City-States in the Dark and Wild Continents or the wealthy City-States within the Light Continent- all regions received the influence of a Diamond Ranked Expert as the many problems that the locals faced were reduced as within the cities, there was a vast distribution of Equipment, Skill Books, and Cores ranging from Bronze to Silver.

Selections of who received them were based on merit and strength, these beings taking in this chance to delve into the Rifts within their Cities as in the coming days and weeks within the Ethereal Realm, there was bound to be an explosion of resources and beings rising in power as the Dimensional Rifts would be cleared in fervor!

The truly knowledgable and thoughtful beings across the three Continents who had begun feeling these sweeping changes and the Legions of the Dark and Wild Continent that had witnessed something stupendous not too long ago had singular thoughts.

What changes would continue to happen within the Ethereal Realm? And just...who truly was the being responsible for all of them?!

To be able to command and move all the Diamond Experts of the Realm, did this being not want fame? Did he not want to grandly announce himself as the new Ethereal Emperor as he ruled and created a long lasting Dynasty under his name?

The only beings who were at the forefront and looked at as the possible Rulers were the ones being seen in the Imperial Castle every now and then- A crimson haired woman that Royalty were dubbing with the name of Ice Queen, and the shocking rumors of the re-emergence of the thought to be dead Ethereal Princess, Rose!

It was a shocking new reality where unexpected beings were taking the helm and establishing new rules, the true power behind it all not coming into the spot light.

Meanwhile, the Ruler in question was in the Waiting Room beside enormous Towers and Portals surrounding him, opening his eyes brightly as after some time, the bright Universal Law Crystal had already faded from his hands as when he opened his eyes, feeling something incredible swimming within his sea of consciousness.

It seemed to flash in and out, but a purple luster was swimming brightly within his mind as when he wielded it…

THRUM!

His body glowed bright purple and tendrils of aether slowly undulated like a thin film over his body!

The tendrils were weak and unstable, but it was an element nonetheless...and a High Ranking one at that. It was the elements of the Universal Law of Aether that boosted his strength by a large amount as aside from this...he could nearly feel the barrier from Diamond to Platinum breaking.

Unlike his predecessor the Ethereal Emperor that made? a breakthrough in the past though, Noah wasn't so lucky as he would most likely be able to do so after his second or third Universal Law Crystal. The energy they held was just that dense!

As he felt the vibrating elements of Aether within his body and those around him, Noah couldn't help but have a light smile while looking into his status panel that showed a new section.

[Universal Laws] :: Aether- .1%(+10% Increased Aether Damage, +10% Increased Elemental Penetration, +10% Elemental Corrosion Effect)

He saw the mere .1% of the Law of Aether that gave him a great amount of boosts for its small percentages, his gaze sharp as when he calculated what he would gain when he brought the Universal Law to 100%...just one of the boosts would be +10,000% Increased Aether Damage!

Such a thought made his gaze rush back into the Infinite Crucible as he checked the number of Crucible Points and went towards it once more. His goal was to farm, and so he would farm! The corner of his still landed on the Shattered Life Planes Dimensional Rifts as after clearing the Infinite Crucible a few times with the law of Aether, he wanted to see just how far he could climb the floors of the Life Element Rift and if he could get his hands on the Universal Law Crystals of the Law of Life as well.

With a plan in motion, Noah acted on it as at this moment, he knew he was running on a clock. A powerful enemy was called forth as he was searching for his new home at this very moment, and he had to at least prepare for this enemy and be sure he could take him on before he went back to his Idle life.

He planned to make this enemy the last one he would have to face, where he planned to be capable of utterly dominating him and be capable of Subjugating the coming being.

This was because after extensive reading of the plots of many stories, he knew if this being died within the Ethereal Realm, it would somehow trigger a chain reaction where his organization somehow finds out how he died and its location, with them very soon sending a party of PLATINUM experts or something like that to cause Noah to run around some more until he gets embroiled into such an organization- either joining them or making them a huge enemy that he somehow could not exist with on the same plane!

He wanted no such plot for himself as the moment he was able to utterly subjugate whatever enemy was coming, he would learn from the memories of that being whatever organization he belonged to and do his best to stay as far away from them as possible.

He would then send this being back to do whatever tasks he was doing and order him to continue conducting himself as if he never met Noah...and this was how he planned to achieve his Idle Life!

He would reject the cycle of stronger enemies and seclude himself within his Ethereal Realm while getting stronger until the powerful organizations that rule over the star systems or even the galaxy he was in could not threaten him anymore...maybe then he would step out!

"An idle life with my Idle Gaming System…!"

Noah uttered with bright eyes as he delved back into the Infinite Crucible for more runs to obtain Aether Law Crystals, his goals very clear in his eyes!
