[CHAPTER 3]:{Primordial Genesis: Maturity Begins}
---
1st POV
"Athena, tell me—when is the best time to name myself?"
A pause.
Then, a voice filled with boundless knowledge and absolute certainty.
[Answer: After your maturity but before the power sublimation.]
[Reason: Upon reaching maturity, Master will become an Omni-Dimensional Being. At that point, all special naming conventions across all worlds will converge into a single, absolute system—one designed for your exclusive use.]
[As a result, naming will not only transfer power but also embody the deeper meaning behind the name itself, perfectly aligning with the compatibility between Master and the named entity.]
…
Fascinating.
This is not merely the act of bestowing a name—it is a process of existential reinforcement, a divine inscription upon reality itself.
If meaning and compatibility factor into my naming, then I must tread carefully. A single word from me could shape destinies, bind souls, or even reconstruct the very essence of a being.
But that leads me to another question…
"Athena, if my naming carries such immense weight, can I regulate its effects? Specifically, can I create a skill that allows me to control how my naming works—ensuring it follows the rules of the universe I'm in? And, if I so desire, can I remove those limitations at will?"
[Answer: It is indeed feasible, Master.]
A smile forms—silent but absolute.
Excellent.
With this, I ensure that my very presence does not disrupt the balance of worlds unless I allow it. A god must be precise, after all.
Yet something lingers in my mind.
One more question.
"...Why a Dragon?"
A simple inquiry, yet one layered with countless implications.
"Don't get me wrong, Athena. I love dragons. But was my draconic nature a result of my skills fusing together? Was it because of your influence, molding me to embody Origin itself? Couldn't I have become something else—perhaps an Outer God?"
Silence.
Then, Athena's answer comes—comprehensive and absolute.
[Answer: What Master says is correct, but there is an additional factor at play—{True Infinite Potential}.]
True… Infinite Potential?
"Explain."
[Answer: Master previously asked whether an Outer God possesses infinite potential. That is true, but they do not possess {True Infinite Potential}.]
A subtle yet monumental difference.
"What's the distinction?"
[Answer: Any concept marked with the {True} attribute represents an absolute, unrestricted version of that concept.]
[For example: All Outer Gods, regardless of their power, are fundamentally lesser than the first of their kind. Their existence is tied to the hierarchy established by Existence {Azathoth}, making them incapable of ever surpassing him. They are his offspring—bound by an eternal ceiling they can never break.]
[If Master had become an Outer God, surpassing Existence {Azathoth} would have been impossible.]
Understanding dawns.
I see now.
{True Infinite Potential} is not just limitless—it is beyond the very concept of limits.
As an Outer God, I would have always been shackled by the hierarchy of that system. No matter how powerful I became, I would remain less than Azathoth.
But as a Primordial Origin Dragon God…
I am unbound.
I am independent.
Growth is no longer a matter of effort or hierarchy—it is a certainty, a passive law of my being.
Given enough time, surpassing Azathoth is not a question of "if"—but "when."
And the reason for my Draconic nature?
"Athena, was I made a dragon because of this? Instead of a Phoenix or some other divine entity?"
[Answer: Affirmative. The Dragon form was chosen because it makes Master the crystallization of the concept you embody, rather than merely the ruler of it.]
A ruler can be dethroned.
A concept, however, is absolute.
With my existence as a Primordial Origin Dragon God, I am Origin itself—not just its wielder, but its very essence.
Perfect.
A stray thought crosses my mind.
"Athena… do I possess a Dragon Factor?"
A Dragon Factor—the genetic essence that grants an individual draconic power, an inheritance passed down through True Dragons and their kin.
Her response is immediate.
[Answer: No. Master's existence surpasses the need for a Dragon Factor.]
[In fact, possessing one would have been a limitation, as Master is not simply a Dragon, but the Ruling Embodiment of your concept.]
A Dragon Factor is something given to those lesser than True Dragons.
I am beyond such constructs.
I am self-existent.
I do not need a Dragon Factor—I am the source from which all Dragon Factors could be derived.
Fascinating.
"Then… let's assume I have children. Would they ever be able to surpass me?"
A question born from curiosity rather than concern.
Athena's response is swift.
[Answer: Never.]
[While Master's descendants may inherit affinity with Origin, they will never embody it. Origin is yours alone, and as a Ruling Embodiment, none can supersede you.]
…
Perfect.
I take a moment to let it all sink in.
The weight of what I have become.
The power that now defines me.
And now…
It is time.
With my mind clear and my path set, I issue the command—
"Let's begin the Maturity Procedure."
—
A change begins.
The Omni-Verse trembles.
Time bends, distorts.
Space shatters and reconstructs, unable to withstand the sheer magnitude of my evolution.
Energy—so vast, so primordial—surges into my being.
Forces beyond creation, beyond destruction, beyond any reality that has ever existed or will ever exist—they flood into me, converging at a single point.
My existence begins to rewrite itself.
I am awakening.
And soon—
I will ascend.
