They were like the very Pinnacle power within a Cosmology, as grasping ahold of them, was as good as grasping all True Laws that exist. One could consider themselves almost Nigh-Omnipotent at that point.
Then next, was the Faith Essence. Faith Unit was a hundred times greater than Faith power, hence being a hundred thousand times Faith points.
A single Faith Unit was heaven defying.
But then there was Faith Essence, which was a million times Faith points, and likewise ten times Faith Units. It's effects being something that even Enigma was not aware of yet.
But he knew for a fact that obtaining use of this Essence, was as good as officially becoming a Nigh-omnipotent God above Existence. Of course, when strong enough.
And his Pantheon, had as much as over 3 000 Faith Essence, which was equivalent to 3 Billion Faith points. A terrifying number even to someone like him.
'At this rate, can I not turn thousands of mortals into Deities?' He thought as he moved on to another important change that he genuinely liked the most.
'True Percentage.' He subconsciously thought to himself, as information in regards to these unique percentage and how they came to be, arrived within his mind.
First of all, his [Universal Behemoth] Unique Divinity allowed him to be able generate a single percentage boost at the cost of birthing 1 000 Celestial Bodies.
And as things went, he currently held a genuine Universe within his consciousness, which could literally translate to Sextillions of Celestial Bodies... hence Quintillions of percentage Boost to his stats!!
But then, why was the boost a mere 1000%?
Simple, a True Boost was equivalent to a Quintillion percentage. Hence why he only held 1000 True Percentage at the moment.
The Unique Divinity had also evolved, being able to birth a single Universe at the cost of permanent loss of a Billion units of Reiki. Reiki, and not Divine power.
It was like he was birthing a Universe at the cost of Sextillions of units of Divine power, or more terrifyingly, Decillions of units of Mana. Nigh-Infinite amount of energy!!
It could be seen how costly creating a single Origin Universe was for Enigma to do within his consciousness, as it's Base had Nigh-Infinite Energy.
Which brought out the question, 'How Grand was the size and power of my consciousness? And how many more Origin Universes can I bare within it at the moment?'
He thought as a future plan was laid out, where he wanted to know what would happen if he went ahead and birth enough Origin Universes to be clustered into something similar to a Multiverse.
An Origin Multiverse!!!
Enigma hurriedly calmed himself down, as his thoughts might be more threatening than even the system. He had to find a way to seal them, as they were too brazen!!!
He then changed his thoughts to focus on something else. As for his hypothesis, he required Sextillions of Reiki Units to even come close to succeeding.
'Hmm... those three new Providences, I haven't touched them at all, I wonder what effects they have. I'll delb in them after tomorrow. And the new weapon is still there?
'Should I Name it now or... no, I should do it later, in case something grand happens.' He had learnt from his previous mistakes after all, 'I'll also try to advance my basic arts. As for advancing advance arts, I unfortunately can't do that now...'
"My skills are as infuruating as always. Since I will have a lot of time, I should just mess up with my Template. Not like anybody will suffer because of it." He finally said out loud.
"...."
"Now that you're done talking to yourself, I have something to ask you"
"Hm? Go ahead." He said. The system did not shy away from him or the lady hiding inside him at all.
"You have completely fused with an Ancient Goddess. You have three choices, absorb her essence and become one with her, she will reincarnate some time later as a 'part' of you"
"Or you can absorb her being completely and take in her vast prowess, skills and Divinity. This will wipe out every form of hers... including any Reincarnation, and giving you great power close to that of a Supreme God"
"Or you can convert her into a resource"
"Your choice"
"Your choice." The system gave him a choice, and Enigma gave it to the Ancient Goddess of Discord and Abomination. He explained things to her since she couldn't see through the system.
"...You didn't tell me about this." Her tone didn't sound disappointed or betrayed, just surprised. She was not surprised he chose to tell it to her than selfishly choose the first option. But that he was able to erase her conceptually.
"But... it doesn't matter. As long as you keep your promise, and help us Breakthrough our Fate, I will do as you say." She then added.
The so called Fate she mentioned was to be used and end up killed uselessly once again. Whether it was her fellow gods who used her to shoulder the blame of evil and the monster rampages.
Or her lover who used her to rise up in power then after becoming an important figure, he sold her to those guys in the Purgatory. Or her best friend, who gave her the seed of Evil to truly turn her evil.
All of them aside, there were more situations, and no matter what she tried, it would end up the same way for her. Thus the only option was to speak to a person who was Favored by Fate.
Unfortunately the three maidens of Fate have long left, and the current God of Destiny just so happened to be her previous lover, who used her.
She was Hopeless, That is, until she sensed Hope in Enigma, who had Fate that was too powerful even for her to dabble on. She was betting everything on him.
"In that case, I'll go with the first choice. It's the only harmless one out of them all." He said, without much thought.
"Affirmative... By the way, how much do you hate me?"
Seeing the strange question, Enigma first thought about it, and after realizing that the atmosphere was still light, he teasingly responded, "As great as Mount Hui."
"That's good then, a little more hatred won't hurt me in the long run"
He suddenly felt like he had been cheated and wanted to take back his words, but he was already too late.
"You have gained the following Divine Skills, "Double Trouble", "Cosmic Manipulation" and "Paradox Lord""
"Due to Unique power intervening, your Unique Skills "Evolutionary Governance", "Self-Body Creation", "Life Construct" and Advanced Art "Transcendental Physiology" and "Divine Form" have fused to form a new skill"
"You have gained the Enigmatic Divine Skill, "Eve of New Beginnings""
"...For some reason, I'm thinking of just sacrificing you to gain some peace." Enigma said as he looked up at the ceiling with a dejected expression.
The servants passing by thought he must have been heart broken to have such an expression. They felt pity for him, even the Goddess of Abomination, could feel his bitterness.
'....'
She didn't understand why someone would feel dejected for gaining more strength. 'Isn't everyone out there looking to get stronger? Why are getting sad about it??!!'
Time went by quickly once again. With nothing important to do, time just rushed by like a breeze.
The conference the next day went smoothly as they planned their steps of going forward.
The Cloud Palace and the Radiant Divine Empire had been against each other for far too long. Be it secretly, or openly, as their battle represented the struggle between God and Men.
They didn't need to cover up the light schemes they had that day. As for the great scheme of yesterday, it had too many important variables it had to be protected.
It was a completely different matter altogether. If the Gods knew about it, they might purge the entire family at all cost, regardless of how many Gods will die during the process.
Anyway, so far, three months have gone by and nothing much really happened. The Gods did not suspect them of a conspiracy, at least not publicly. And none gave the three brothers too much of a problem.
And the disappearance of the Ancient Goddess of Discord and Abomination, is being explored by the vast churches spread throughout the Empire. But to no avail even to this day.
And of course, Enigma stayed with prince Reynolds the whole time. Unfortunately, no new Fragments of History were found, and he had nothing to do.
Being Enigma, he decided to explore the new Providences that he attained. And for once, he didn't regret it... because he was immune to the shock of suddenly getting stronger.
The Skills he collected, yes, collected were as follows;
