Noah’s mind engaged fully, trying to understand what Primus Mana represented at fundamental levels.
When normal Mana powers a technique, it’s like combusting gasoline- efficient, predictable, well-understood.
When Primus Mana powers that same technique, it’s like initiating fusion reactions...orders of magnitude more energy from the same apparent volume, with entirely different interactions!
The transformation was qualitative.
Activating a Mana Glyph of Primordial Fireball with normal Mana creates flames that follow established parameters-temperature, volume, destructive potential all calculable.
Activating that same Glyph with Primus Mana...
His mind raced.
The flames wouldn’t just be hotter or larger. The flames could burn Concepts, Living Existential Authority, Early Existential Authority...
The flames of his Glyphs may become capable of even burning the light of Principles themselves!
And for something complex like a Mana Arcana Glyph of the Primordial Mana-Flame Wyrm...
The construct would be more real, existing with greater solidity, greater autonomy, greater capability to affect existence because every particle of Mana forming it carried enhanced weight. A Primordial Primus Mana-Flame Wyrm could potentially exist for seconds, minutes, or hours...
The transformation continued spreading through his being, and Noah felt systems he’d established beginning to complete.
|The elevation of your Mana to Primus state has triggered cascade completion across multiple systems:|
|SERAPHILIC VEINLACE: 100% Integration Complete|
|INCARNAUT SANCTIS: 100% Integration Complete|
|CHAMBER OF BLOOD: Fundamental Architecture Restructured|
|Previous Capacity: 9 Mana-Born Early Creatures|
|New Capacity: 729 Mana-Born Early Creatures|
|Explanation: Primus Mana allows for vastly more sophisticated transformations.|
HUUM!
Noah’s consciousness pulsed!
729 transformations instead of 9!
And RUIN/EDEN wasn’t finished!
|A Grand Milestone Has Been Achieved.|
|THE HEART OF THE EARLY CREATURE, OSMONT: COMPLETE|
HUUM!
The words blazed across his consciousness.
|Your Heart has been fully formed.|
|Analysis: The "Heart" in this context is not the biological organ, but the existential core, the fundamental anchor point that defines what you are rather than what you do.|
|For Early Creatures, the Heart represents the completed integration of all foundational systems into a unified whole. It is the moment when scattered elements of power coalesce into genuine identity.|
|Previous State: You were a collection of advanced systems operating in coordination|
|Current State: You are a unified existence with those systems as expressions of your nature|
|The distinction matters existentially. You are no longer becoming The Early Creature.|
|You ARE The Early Creature.|
The final line carried profound weight!
|Your Existence can now truly begin.|
WAA!
Noah stood in his mental seascape, RUIN/EDEN beside him, three Principle-trees rising from the infinite blue ocean that was transforming to blue-gold before his eyes.
And two more were about to bloom.
And... he felt complete in ways he hadn’t even realized he’d been incomplete before.
His Heart, his existential core, had finished forming.
Everything he’d built, every system he’d established, every Principle he’d cultivated, all of it had finally integrated into a unified whole that was greater than the sum of its parts.
He was no longer just Noah.
He was The Early Creature, Osmont.
Now, he just needed THE.
And his existence, properly formed at last, could now truly begin whatever came next.
In the external world, Riya continued drinking from his Infinite reserves, unaware that what she consumed had transformed mid-connection from normal Mana into Primus Mana, she simply felt like a drunkard whose drink had become even sweeter.
The blue-gold sun blazing above the Isolated Civilization pulsed brighter, painting vast swathes of existence in enhanced authority.
And Noah, The Early Creature, Osmont, with his Heart finally complete and his Mana elevated to Primus state...his voice began to echo out even while lips were sealed by an anomaly.
His voice boomed from his Existence.
From his Heart!
His voice echoed out across the Isolated Civilization, and because it was no longer isolated, his voice shockingly spread out across the Wandering Territories!
"I defy, therefore I exist."
WAA!
"I refuse limitations, therefore I transcend."
"I cultivate infinity, therefore...I need not fear the end."
BOOM!
His voice filled with Primus Mana, dense and filled with majesty, leaked out and rang out even across the distant Transcendent Folds of Living Existences!
I defy, therefore I exist!
I refuse limitations, therefore I transcend!
I cultivate infinity, therefore...I need not fear the end!
The Principle of Primus Ascension.
"Master, the Principle of Primus Ascension is now ready for analysis. Shall we examine its comprehensive capabilities?"
Noah’s mental projection nodded, his attention focusing entirely on what more this new Principle could provide after the simple but critical change from Mana to Primus Mana its authority was focused into.
