Cosmic Ruler - Chapter 286

Chapter 286: Overpowered Trait II

Aiden glanced at Roselia and asked Nexus inwardly, “Can I see her status screen?”

[Yes, she falls under your authority, so you can. Not to mention, you’re forgetting about your Infinite Insight,] Nexus replied.

Aiden nodded. His newly acquired Infinite Insight allowed him to see everything about any being, from their origins to their history—nothing was hidden from him.

Aiden nodded and then looked at Roselia. “Go and bring me the women who are blessed among those outside,” he said.

Roselia nodded, stood up, and silently left his room. She went outside to call the blessed women among those she had saved from the bandits.

I wonder how many of them are blessed, Aiden thought as he waited for her to return as he checked the status screen of hers.

[Status Screen]

Name: Roselia

Race: Six-Winged Holy Angel

Rank: 1 (peak)

Trait: Holy Priestess of Fate

Laws : Purity, Light, Fate

Assimilation : 100% in all Laws

Description : Roselia was originally a normal angel with the Light Priestess trait. She was summoned by Aiden to serve under him, and while she was capable, her potential had been limited. However, after Aiden used Paradoxical Perfection on her, all her latent abilities and potential were fully unlocked. Her rank, traits, and talents were elevated to their peak. Her wings grew into six, a sign of her ascension to a higher form, and her Light Priestess trait transformed into Holy Priestess of fate, vastly enhancing her divine abilities and aura. ]

Aiden nodded as he saw her status screen ” She can advance any time now” he said

[Yes, she can the only reason being she might be waiting for your permission] nexus said.

[After all you can have a summon with a rank upper then your own] Nexus added.

Aiden nodded as he calmly sat on the bed. Soon, he heard the sound of footsteps as Roselia returned with 13 women.

Their number is only thirteen? he thought. They saved over 90 women, yet only 13 of them are blessed.

“Introduce your name and your traits,” Aiden said. They nodded and began introducing themselves one by one.

As the women stood before him, Aiden observed them carefully. Traits, he knew, were nothing but special abilities they were blessed with. They could be anything from Flame Ruler to Chaos Ruler, depending on the individual’s potential and destiny. However, for these women, their traits were far more modest.

Although, they felt weird how a baby could now be an young man, they didn’t mind it much, thinking it can due to traits.

The first woman stepped forward. “My name is Elara, and my trait is Swift Healer,” she said, bowing slightly.

Another came forward. “I am Lyra, and my trait is Silent Step,” she introduced, her voice barely above a whisper.

The women continued to introduce themselves one by one, each revealing their modest but unique abilities.

Mira: “My trait is Keen Vision.”

Celine: “I am blessed with Mender of Wounds.”

Tara: “My trait is Minor Elemental Affinity: Water.”

Isla: “I have the trait Stone Skin, which grants me brief periods of enhanced durability.”

Nina: “My trait is Farsight, allowing me to see over great distances.”

Faye: “I possess the trait Quick Reflexes.”

Aria: “My trait is Light Bearer, giving me the ability to produce and control small amounts of light.”

Lila: “I have the trait Minor Wind Manipulation.”

Rhea: “My trait is Beast Whisperer, allowing me to communicate with small animals.”

Selene: “I am blessed with Poison Resistance.”

Yara: “My trait is Soundless Movement, making my actions nearly undetectable.”

Aiden nodded as he never expected anything grand from this women, as if these won had grand Traits they could have never been caught.

All of them have just Lesser rank traits, Traits follow the same ranking as his Authorities here in Celestial world.

“All of you are about to be bestowed with something grand,” Aiden said, his gaze sweeping over the women. “My trait allows me to elevate the powers of other traits. But first, you must all sign an absolute loyalty contract with me, if you wish to receive this honor.”

As his voice trailed off, the women immediately bowed. “Please, young master,” they said in unison, accepting without hesitation.

Aiden was stunned by how quickly they agreed, not knowing that, while he slept, Roselia had carefully molded these women into his most loyal followers.

“Very well,” Aiden said, as he waved his hand. An elaborate magic circle appeared on the ground beneath them. A single chain of light shot out from the circle and coiled around his wrist. One by one, more chains emerged and wrapped themselves around the women’s necks, signifying their submission and loyalty to him.

The master-slave contract was complete.

All the women were stunned by how effortlessly Aiden had done it. Unknown to them, Aiden had over 20,000 years of experience with mana and laws manipulation. Performing a simple tier 6 spell was as easy for him as casting a tier 0 spell.

“Now, come to me one by one,” Aiden said.

Elara was the first to stand. She moved toward him, and upon reaching him, she fell to her knees. Aiden looked down at her. She was beautiful in her own right, with black hair and eyes, and a perfectly shaped body. He placed his hand on her head and activated Paradoxical Perfection.

As Elara knelt before him, Aiden focused his energy through his hand, feeling the familiar surge of power as he activated Paradoxical Perfection. A radiant glow enveloped her, transforming her traits and abilities, raising her potential to new heights. The process was not without pain; she felt her very essence being rewired and reconstructed.

“Your healing powers will now flourish,” Aiden said, releasing the spell. Elara looked up at him with difficulty, her body still undergoing the process of transformation. Her eyes were wide with newfound respect and gratitude, even as she gritted her teeth against the discomfort.

Next was Lyra. She approached him, her heart racing with anticipation and fear. Aiden placed his hand on her head and activated Paradoxical Perfection once again. A shimmering aura surrounded her, and as her Silent Step trait was enhanced, she felt the painful sensation of her whole self being rewired. The ability to move undetected in the most crowded spaces came at the cost of a temporary agony that forced her to concentrate on the newfound power surging through her.
