The Legacy System

"HAHAHAHAHAH~!"

That maniac laughter took even the mysterious owner of the Legacy System by surprise as she thought that Eric had definitely lost his mind this time.

So, she couldn't help but ask in dissatisfaction,

"Why the hell are you laughing about!?"

At that moment, Roy's soul avatar forcibly controlled his laughter, but it could be seen that there were still traces of wanting to laugh inside him, as he said,

"Do you think I am stupid beauty!? If I want to look at everyone and everything with disdain from the top, then do you think that I won't make the whole Universe, and the whole World an enemy!?

Do you think that those guys sitting at the top until now will just let me kick their ass or kill them with a smile on their face, and let me occupy that spot?

The Origin World is just a higher step in my heart, not the destination!"

It was at that moment that the mysterious beauty owner of the Legacy System couldn't help but tremble for a moment.

She didn't know why, or how but she felt confidence and conviction from those words, and for a moment she felt like she saw the illusory image of her father.

Her thoughts made her think that she had gone crazy, but her heart was telling her that she had to take this chance.

But once she did, then her life would be greatly chained to his, if he died then she would die and vice versa. She felt that this was a big gamble without much probability of winning.

As she was thinking like that though, Eric's original soul avatar's connection to the conscience sea was growing weaker and weaker, while the Soul Clone had started to initiate the takeover.

Every second was a lost second in their situation, and with each passing second, the danger for both of them grew exponentially.

What made the situation worse for the beauty owner was the fact, that Eric didn't seem to have any intention of stopping this situation.

There were clearly thoughts of him stopping, as unconsciously no being wanted to die and close a chapter of their life, but his extreme will, resolve, and determination stopped him from doing so.

This was the first time that she had come across such a stubborn fool, that was ready to endanger his existence, and his essence just so that he could have the decision with his life.

That made the beauty owner unconsciously start appreciating his will, and his determination, but still it wasn't enough to convince her to sign an Equals Contract with him.

With those thoughts in her mind and with a new decision made, a lot of metallic lustrous chains came out of the Divine Artifact and started attacking the Soul Clone.

But it was already too late about that, as the Soul Clone had already made a connection to the conscience sea, and had started to take over the authority.

So, all those metallic chains coming out of the Divine Artifact were met with ferocious swirling whirlpools created inside the conscience sea.

No matter how ferocious, and strong those metallic chains looked, the whirlpools didn't seem to fall down and were even evolving.

If at first there were needed two whirlpools in order to block one of those metallic chains, slowly but surely one was taking care of the defense while the second went for the attack.

It was impossible for those whirlpools to have any effect on that Divine Artifact, but this clearly showed that the situation wasn't in the artifact's or the artifact's owner's favor.

And this was just the Soul Clone making a connection and starting the change of the authority rights in Eric's conscience sea.

It wasn't that the Divine Artifact, or in this case the Legacy System was worthless, it was just that right now it was extremely weak, and it was surviving only on Eric's soul avatar's spirit power.

And was confined inside Eric's conscience sea, without any option to receive any kind of energy or aura from the outside.

Not to mention that Eric was intentionally cutting off the connection of the Legacy System to its only source of energy and aura in there and letting the Soul Clone use it.

That made the beauty owner of the Legacy System even more furious and enraged at Eric's sly and vicious trick.

He was truly taking down both of them if he died because while the Legacy System could keep its own against the Soul Clone, the only source of energy it could use would be her.

But she was already in a terribly weakened state, and what Eric had supplied her until now was completely useless.

If she used her full strength to deal with the Soul Clone after Eric's disappearance, she would most certainly fall into a deep sleep in order to recuperate.

Probably for hundreds or even thousands of years, which was clearly against her wishes, and intentions, as she knew from Eric's memories about the future of this planet.

If she was found out and take away, then there was a grave chance of her ending in a much worse state than just a long sleep.

So, even though she didn't want that to happen, she felt like there was no other way for her besides making that Equals Contract with Eric.

While she still was hesitating, Eric's original Soul Avatar was getting weaker and weaker, as if felt like it would totally lose meaning and existence in a short time.

Seeing that the situation was already getting increasingly dangerous, the beautiful owner couldn't hold back anymore, as she said,

"AAGGHH~! Fine I accept your Equals Contract, but there must be a condition that if you die, then your whole energy and aura will be given to me!"

In fact, there wasn't such a thing, in an Equals Contract, as after all, they were sharing everything equal including their energy, experience, cultivation, and life.

Her words were only in order to test Eric, if he accepted then everything was fine, but if he didn't then she could only go and fall asleep waiting for her fate.

Eric felt like he didn't even need to think, or argue about that condition, as he answered,

"Well of course, while it would be a real pity to not have a beauty like yourself to accompany me in my death, I would still regret more to have you die before your time comes!"

The beautiful owner hadn't expected him to answer so quickly, and especially with such a line, so she was startled a bit.

But the more time passed, the weaker did Roy's original Soul Avatar's connection with his conscience sea became, and he was in his last dregs at that moment.

Feeling that, the surprise and the startle of the beauty seemed to disappear at that moment, as she quickly took changed the type of contract and connection between them.

As long as one was the Master in a relationship, he could easily change the type of connection on his will, only when both entities entered in an Equals contract did the two sides have the choice of will.

So, it was clearly unnecessary for Eric to have a say at this moment, as he saw the notification on his Legacy System.

! Warning! The connection between the Master and the Host has been changed. Master and the Host are now in an Equals Contract, so the Host's status increases to Master.

This was what Eric was waiting for, as he could already feel the change in their relationship even the previous chain had turned into some kind of metallic thread connecting the two together.

Now that the change was done, there was no way he was going to let the beauty suffer anymore, as he quickly started wrestling for control once again while ordering the Soul Clone to back down.

He had never thought that it would be easy, but it was only now that he finally understood how difficult it was, as that darned thing not only didn't stop but even started working harder.

It was only at this point that Eric understood what it meant to raise someone from the cradle, only to have him steal everything from you.

But there was no way in hell he was going to let that thing succeed with that, as he put all his will and determination in this, without holding back.

He wasn't going to allow this damned thing to win, but unfortunately, he was extremely weak, he was about to lose connection to the spring that kept him alive.

Just as he was thinking that this might be the end of him, he felt a weird kind of energy enter and reenergize his Soul Avatar, as he saw another notification on his Legacy System Interface.

! Warning! Second Master's Spirit Power levels are extremely low! His existence is in danger! Transferring Spirit Power from First Master towards Second Master according to the Equals Contract!

This was totally unexpected for Roy's original Soul Avatar, the truth was that he didn't truly understand what an Equals Contract entailed, but he knew that it must be something good.

In other words, he had just been bluffing a moment ago, as he had no idea of an Equals Contract, but since there was a Slave Contract, there must be an Equals one logically, that was what he thought.

It turned out to be right, but it was only now that he understood that perhaps he had gotten much more than what he wished to bargain for.

Which made him extremely happy, and extremely satisfied, as he could feel the Spirit Power rushing through his original Soul Avatar and strengthening his connection to his Conscience Sea.

It was time for him to become the ruler of his own conscience sea once again…
