Comprehending Laws

Leon, deep in his Spiritual World, sat cross-legged in the center of a complex formation. As he activated it, the space around him was soon filled with a dazzling array of energies and colors, swirling in a mesmerizing dance.

With focused eyes, Leon began to close them, allowing his soul to resonate with the Laws he was most familiar with. Time passed as he delved into the depths of comprehension, his essence melding with the vast, intricate weave of universal laws.

Merry and Selia, emerging from within him, also entered a trance-like state. They positioned themselves at a respectful distance from Leon, their forms radiating their own unique energies as they sought to comprehend the Laws.

Days went by, and within Leon's Source World, significant changes occurred. A grand hourglass structure emerged, with sand cascading from top to bottom, reversing and flowing once more in a continuous loop. Nearby, a withering flower perpetually decayed, symbolizing his grasp of the Rule related to Time.

Leon eventually opened his eyes, coming out of his trance, and addressed the system.

"System, show my gains," he instructed.

System Responded:

[Affirmative]

[Rules Comprehended: Two]

[Level 1 Rule of Acceleration: Peak of Basic Grade]

[Level 1 Rule of Decay: Entry Level of Intermediate Grade]

With the detailed attributes of the newly comprehended Rules laid out before him, Leon reflected on their implications:

[Rule of Acceleration: Peak of Basic Grade]

Accelerated Thoughts: Enables rapid processing of information and faster decision-making.

Dimensional Awareness: Enhances awareness of dimensional changes and manipulations within his surroundings.

Speed Enhancement: Increases his own speed and the speed of objects around him.

Accelerating Time Around Any Object: Allows him to speed up time for specific objects or areas, impacting their development or deterioration.

[Rule of Decay: Entry Level of Intermediate Grade]

High Offensive Power: Provides a potent offensive ability, capable of causing significant damage.

Physical Decay: Accelerates the deterioration of physical matter, useful in weakening enemies or structures.

Energy Decay: Diminishes or disrupts energy forms, affecting both magical and physical energies.

Soul Decay: Impacts the spiritual essence of beings, causing harm or weakening their soul.

Armed with these formidable Rules, Leon felt a surge of anticipation. The Rule of Acceleration would significantly enhance his strategic capabilities, both in combat and in manipulating his environment. The Rule of Decay offered him powerful offensive options and control over physical, energetic, and spiritual aspects of his foes.

Leon felt a familiar nudge from his bonds, Merry and Selia. He patted them affectionately, noticing how much Selia had grown. She now reached nearly his height, her appearance transforming from a cute serpent into a fierce and majestic creature.

"I remember I never used it on you," Leon mumbled, placing his hand on Selia and whispering, "Awaken."

[Selia's bloodline quality increased by 103 times]

[Void Devouring Serpent]

Selia underwent a dramatic change. Her violet scales shifted to a twilight hue, and her eyes turned a deep purple. Her abilities saw substantial upgrades:

Darkness Controller evolved into Abyssal Ruler.

Void Lightning Controller became Void Elemental Ruler.

Poison Emperor upgraded to Poison Ruler.

Selia's enhanced form and abilities now conveyed a sense of royalty, reflecting her newfound power. Leon admired her transformation and then turned his attention to the rules comprehended by Merry and Selia.

"I need to see what rules you two have mastered," Leon said, closing his eyes and reaching into his source world.

He saw two thin lines connecting him to Merry's and Selia's source world. Concentrating on the blood-red line, he found himself in Merry's domain. The scene was similar to his own source world, but the central objects differed. A large, churning blob of blood and nebula flames in the form of serpents dominated the space, alongside two additional, illusory objects. This indicated that Merry had comprehended more than just two rules, unlike Leon.

Leon explored Merry's rules which were staggering four.

level 1 Rule of Blood : Represented by the blood blob.

Level 1 Rule of Devouring Flames : Represented by a Nebula Serpent

Level 2 Rule of Abundance : Symbolized by Flower Dripping endless amount of Nectar 

Level 1 Rule of Star Flames: Symbolized by the nebula flames.

He touched these objects as he knew by touching them he can obtain the transformation as same as Merry.

The massive influx of information overwhelmed him momentarily, but he grasped the depth of Merry's comprehension.

Next, Leon connected to Selia's source world. Inside, he encountered:

Level 1 Rule of Devouring: Manifested as a Black hole.

Level 1 Rule of Abyssal Flames: Shown as a Black sun.

Level 2 Rule of Plague: Represented by a swirling floral shaped miasma of decay.

Leon absorbed the information about these rules as well before leaving Selia's source world.

"You saw what I was doing, right?" he asked both Merry and Selia. They nodded in understanding. Leon then instructed them to enter his source world and learn the rules he had comprehended. Soon, Merry and Selia were immersed in his source world, engaging with the rules Leon had mastered.

They both too obtained the same amount of comprehension as Leon.

"this will be enough for now" Leon mumbled, as he also checked his clones Rule progress.

Diablo : 

Level 1 Rule of Bloodflames

level 1 Rule of Immortality

level 1 Rule of Mortality

level 2 Rule of Shadow

Lucifer : 

Level 1 Rule of Predator

level 1 Rule of Pride

level 1 Rule of Night

level 2 Rule of Beastly Rage

"hmm, they have also comprehended quite good ones" Leon mumbled, as he looked at it and then he stood up, a she stretched, and looked t his holowatch.

"Huh? 13 days Passed" Leon exclaimed in surprise as he came out of Law space, he informed his parents and then started to pack his things.

His Mom entered his room as she asked " where will you be going?"

"Don't know, first I will try to go to Adventure Paradise and register myself as a Rule Evolver there," Leon replied.

"Hmm, you don't want to ask anything from me or Dad?" she asked, moving closer and sitting on the bed, her eyes fixed on him.

"Your past? Or about your powers?" Leon asked, meeting her gaze.

"Both, maybe," his mother responded with a small smile.

"It's okay, just tell us whenever you're ready—when we're all together, with everyone there, including Michael," Leon replied calmly.

His mother nodded, standing up as she prepared to leave. "There, at Grim Battlefield, always remember it's only you who you can depend on."

"I know, I've already seen people's dark sides," Leon responded, his voice steady.

"I know, that's why I'm not worried about you. But Michael... Haaa, I don't know about him," she said, smiling and then sighing.

"It's okay, he'll learn. Only a burnt finger can teach how dangerous fire is," Leon reassured her.

His mother smiled as she left. "Meet us before leaving," she said, and Leon nodded.
