My Idle System-Chapter 351: Universe (4) (Unedited)

It was only when he finished that, that Anastasia, finally resumed talking and said, "If it's about the evolution… then, I think that's all there is to it."

Or so, were her thoughts, but, to Christian the most important point, was still not addressed by her, so, he interjected and asked, "What about the linking part with the world?"

Anastasia's lip parted slightly, her expression, that of someone remembering something he seemed to have forget, and so, she coughed before she immediately start talking again.

She explained how linking with the world would make the individual who linked with it, be something called, World Master, which could be quite fitting, according to the information he got from Olivia.

She explained about the process of linking with the world, in far more details, before she finally started talking about the benefits, which were actually similar to what Olivia said… to gain a degree of control over the Earth, and to be able to sense anything happening inside the world, like he had an eyes all over it.

Then, to be able to use essence from the reserve of the world, which could be significance, depending on the type of the power the one who became the World Master hold, as those who are mages for example, could be far more powerful if they have access to essence reserve of the Earth.

Then, finally, there is the Essence affinity.

Olivia said it was a buff to increase the practicing speed.

But, Anastasia explained that it was Essence affinity.

Meaning, it would not only increase the training speed, it could also affect the potential, and could be even determinant during the battle.

Regardless, to Christian all of that was not important, as much as something else, "What about the downsides? It can't be all benefits after all… right?"

"Downside?" Anastasia repeated, seemingly pondering, before she said, "Well, it's simple, if something happen, to the world, and for example, let's say, it was destroyed, then you too will receive a negative impact, that would not only affect your progress later and would hinder it, or even stop it altogether, it could also effect your current power, and decrease."

"Further more, if it was too huge of an impact, then, you could even lose your life."

Christian stayed silent, his gaze that of someone who was really right with his thoughts, and there can't be a deal this good.

Having moved on from his workshop to his house, to one of its, rooms, he sat on the sofa there, and digested this piece of information slowly, thinking about its implication.

He was too absorbed in his thoughts, when, suddenly he felt a small weight on his thigh, and his nose caught on to a fragrant and very nice smell.

Moving his gaze down, he saw Anastasia, who, with her soft and petite body, sat on his lap, swung her leg like some kind, and looked at him mischievously, as she said, "If you are wondering if that's it about the downsides. Then, there is actually more."

'Well, more than the downsides, I'm curious, if my legs has become some public bench.' Christian amusedly wondered.

Though, to him, seeing Anastasia take the initiative like this, was still something worth feeling joy for.

So, to not let her slip away if she so happens to change her mind, he moved his hand, and hugged her waist.

He naturally wanted to be absorbed in her warmth, and enjoy the moment, but, knowing now was not the time for that, he still lent his ear to her, as she had already started talking.

"Everything has a limit, or like a potential to be more accurate."

"So, while they would never stop accumulating essence in their life, they could still get stuck at one stage and don't progress further in their lifetime before they eventually die."

"A world is same, it could also reach dead end at one point, and after some time, it would really reach the end of its lifespan,"

"Well, here the time would actually be immensely long, like far more than thousand, million or even billion of years… but, it still has a lifespan."

"And so, the impact for the said World Master, would once again be huge."

"Further more, with a link between you and the world, you would think, that it's only you who are benefiting. But, that's not the case, the link is not one line only, it's two line, where even the world could benefit from you."

"And so, imagine if you grow in strength and reach a rank, where you could erase this world by a move of your finger."

"By that point, the world would the one benefiting from you, more than you benefiting from it."

"What's worse, is severing the said link." 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

"It's not easy, and would always give repercussion… as in would impact you negatively."

"So, the worst downside, is actually being tied down."

"After all, if you were to link with a world, your fate will be tied down to it. So, I consider this the biggest problem, and most people who achieve my strength or above would be the same."

Anastasia seemed have finally to conclude her explanation, which clearly seemed to be biased after some point…

Or well, that was what Christian thought, until Anastasia suddenly seemed to remember Rhea her friend, and so, she corrected herself and said, "Well… actually things change if the world itself was tempting enough… like it was too special… but, earth? It's pretty mediocre, as a world. Or even more."

"The people on it, from what I observed appear to be rather talented… but, the world itself is a big no. So, I also don't recommend it for you. And you don't seem to need it either way."

........

After Anastasia's biased advise, silence descended upon the room.

Christian naturally agreed with her opinion, after all, he treasure his freedom quite a lot, and he has quite a lot of confidence with the Idle System, but, after contemplating the information from her side, and feeling curious about a few points, he decided to ask about them first.
