The Empyreal Gem Master

A gem in the shape of a heart.

It was pulled towards the center of the Enneagram as while it neared, the hazy circle at the very center gradually changed shape.

The shape, of course, was becoming one that could seamlessly fit the incoming heart-shaped ability gem.

It was astonishing.

Variant Life Sockets were set as if they held unique shapes different from circles, specific gems that fit these Sockets alone would be viable.

And yet Alexander had the Enneagram that seemed to be malleable when it came to any type of Gem.

Even a heart-shaped Gem…was fitted in seamlessly as it took the center spot of the Enneagram that shone with a silent white light!

And in the next moment, on the extreme ends of the Enneagram, 8 dazzling illusory Sockets became lit up.

Eight!

In the past Gem Recipes, Alexander had generated 6 usable Support Ability Sockets, and when including the Main Ability Gem- it was the equivalent of 7 Sockets.

A Seven-Link Gem Blueprint.

But now, the possible Support Ability Sockets that had lit up with the introduction of the Mythical Ability Gem, Scion of the World Tree, were Eight!

When putting together the Main Ability Gem itself, that was a total of Nine.

A Nine-Link Gem Blueprint!

Was this not…what Tier 9 Emperors held?

Alexander's eyes held a dazed light even with his exceedingly calm state of mind momentarily.

Because still, within the Enneagram…there was one dark Support Ability Socket that wasn't lit up.

It meant that some time in the future, if any viable Gem arose…there could be a possibility for a Ten-Link Gem Blueprint.

What even would such a thing be? What would it even mean?!

DUM!

The beat of his heart felt heavy and loud at this moment as he calmed himself.

Like a cold spring, the coolness of Meta Comprehension washed over him as his emotions settled.

Yes. The Enneagram was astonishing with a lot of its wonders still yet to be discovered.

And with it…he actually saw a chance for himself even with the new memories from Beast Lord Vishpala that showed that Human Lineages were about to be in truly sorry states in the future to come!

But he could change this for himself, his Father, Claire, and all those he grew up knowing.

'Let's do it.'

With a tipped crown dangling on his head that made him look like a young king, he felt the continued spinning of the Enneagram as its voice echoed out.

[The Support Ability Gem- Energy Preservation Support, has been added to the World Tree Scion Gem Recipe.]

[The Support Ability Gem- Vigor Boost Support, has been added to the World Tree Scion Gem Recipe.]

[The Support Ability Gem- Parameter Elevation Support, has been added to the World Tree Scion Gem Recipe...]

…!

The Gem Tree Scion recipe began to unveil itself at this moment as its already shocking boons were about to get an overhaul!

Support gem after support gem that were specially chosen by the Enneagram were added, Alexander's body beginning to shine with a faint verdant red radiance as he seemed to be brimming with life.

His figure and the figure of Beast Lord Vishpala crossed the skies like mere crimson streaks, with the support of two Peacock Minions following behind just in case additional support was needed.

They were fast.

A millionth the speed of light.

All without any usage of Energeia, and the capability of movement across space was enough to make even royal avians jealous as Alexander and his Minions could move in any direction seamlessly!

So when they set off to intercept the force that should have been sent out to see what the situation of Vishpala was, their speed was utterly ridiculous.

Alexander flew alongside Vishpala as even though his mind was under the effect of Meta Comprehension, which kept him cool and collected, his heart could still not help but enjoy this sheer achievement of flight.

While growing up, one of the few cardinal rules his mother had taught him related to this.

The small things in life.

The fun things in life.

Alexander remembered the words of his mother as if she was speaking to him just yesterday.

When he closed his eyes, he could feel her warm hand on his head as she spoke out.

'Little Alex, the world out there is a bleak and dystopian one. But if that's the only thing you look at, it will eventually cause you to go crazy. So as you grow up, be sure to enjoy the few things that can bring you happiness. Your family, food, girls, and when you eventually awaken…the sensation and usage of lifeforce.'

…!

Her hand had been so warm.

Her eyes beamed with a bright light and a crescent smile as Alexander remembered when she had gazed at the distant skies.

'Little Alex, do you know? One of my dreams has always been to shoot across the skies. To feel the wind on my skin. How colorful all of it is...and whether I can ever see its end. The skies…'

Her words faded away from his memory as he closed his eyes while feeling the wind that didn't give any resistance at all.

This was his mother's dream.

She couldn't live to enjoy such a dream, but he could live it.

In the corner of his eyes, an indiscernible tear quickly disappeared into the wind as he opened his eyes with vibrant fervor.

He was ready.

He had already released a Flame Hound from his bindings as one spot was wide open for whatever beast they were about to intercept!

'Oh, Master, I sense someone of my lineage nearing.'

The thoughts of Vishpala entered his mind as this woman took on her human form and reduced her speed- the oppressive aura she could release reigned in a short few seconds…

HUUM!

Heavy winds surged ahead as a glorious green Peacock full of lustrous fur could be seen, its figure hastening towards them as it should have sensed Vishpala as well!

Confusion was apparent in its eyes, but Vishpala flew towards it as her eyes lit up with recognition.

"Sister Anastasia! Something happened…"

Her words were those of someone meeting their friend as they held no malice within them.

The Tier 7 Beast Lord called Anastasia held no reservation as she hurried before Vishpala!

"Sis Vishpala, just what happe-"

BOOM!

Vishpala instantly erupted with a terrifying aura when she was a few meters away, her eyes carrying frustration and unwillingness as she turned on her own people at this moment and began to hand out a beat down!
