Twin Reincarnation: Epics Of The Worldline

Chapter 187 187 Piece of a star

[El's POV: ]

[Congratulations! You have obtained 11,223,693 Points!]

[Congratulations! You have gained one of the best extra items of the highest grade academic treasure chest!]

[As an extra reward, you have gained 2,000,000 Points!]

[Congratulations! You have gained a [Star fragment]! The energy of star fills the room!]

[Caution! Be careful not to stare at the fragment for too long.]

From the purple treasure chest came out a purple-gold light, golden status screens floating right above it, and, a single item was sitting in that attractive looking box.

<Nya… pinch me El.>

A jewel of uneven shape exuding a bright blue light that was nothing like we had ever seen.

A light so beautiful, so pure, so real that it seemed all the light in the room was replaced by the light from this special piece rather than the magic lamps present in the room.

The lights of night coming from the windows were gracing this place, there were pretty bright lights in this room present as well, and still, the light from this uneven stone, this strange fragment that was a source of light itself, could not be compared to anything present in this place.

'I can't believe we got something so valuable out of nowhere…'

Even Raz, someone who felt with unbelievably rare items could not believe this and wanted me to pinch him.

<Nyaaaaaaaaaa! I didn't mean this hard, nya! That hurt! But… It means this isn't a dream. There really is a star fragment present right before me…>

What we were seeing before us, wasn't something that should even exist in this small place in the first place.

'This thing is something that could practically fuel a few planets for eons if used correctly, but now, that same thing present before us.'

A Star Fragment.

In the grand Worldline, when a star, or what we usually refer to as natural power reactors of the universe, in some place [Sun] as well, gets older and is at the end of its life cycle, there are three things that could possibility happen to it.

'Either the star will expend and demo or all the solar system that is around it, becoming a 'Red gient' that is a being of destruction, something that only dies when this expansion is no longer possible… something that could have been explained with the star's nucleons using helium instead of hydrogen if this was our previous world but, in this world where the stars don't burn hydrogen but the special Mana instead, this whole process is a little different.'

Perhaps the star will expend and become a giant that destroys everything around it before getting destroyed itself in the process of the death, or [Novaburst], or, perhaps the star will shrink and use the remaining energy it has until it uses everything and becomes just a chunk of core with nothing to burn anymore, or, what the Dwarfs of some higher worlds love to call [Celestial metal].

'If neither of it happens, then in a very special, and strange process, the star will go through a unique process in which the physical matter and the energy it possessed will separate, the metal will decompose into energy as well, and the remaining energy will all compress into something that would contain all the remaining energy of that star, an energy so great that even a Great dragon would need centuries to produce power even close to what it might possess.'

A Star Fragment is also called a free ticket to the upper realm and an eternal comfort, something any higher being would lust after, and also somethig that possessed enough power to elevate any mortal up to the ranks of the gods.

"Lucky bastard…"

<Nyaaaahahahahahahahahahaha! I can't believe I just got a star fragment! Nyaaaahahahaha!>

There is something very unique when it comes to a star fragment.

-Ooooooooooooooooooong!

Whoever obtains it first through whatever legitimate means, it becomes theirs and theirs alone forever. Something similar to becoming a bound artefact.

<Nyahahahahaha!>

"Bastard. So this is your fifth time obtaining a star fragment?"

<This is my sixth nyaaaaaahahahaha! And I finally have another one after a whole damn cycle, nya! How amazing is this, hahahahaha!>

When he asked me to let him open the next treasure chest we would get, I knew we would only get a chest from which one could only get some academic points that are much less valuable than the actual Oz of the system since they could only be used in the interfaces and places related to the academic places.

Now there are are ways we can use these points but, they at the end of the day, nothing compared to a Star fragment, some of the most attractive treasures of this entire world.

'If it would have come to us, we would have practically got the power to skip out half of our plans for this world, but, well…'

-Slap!

"Fuck you you damn fucking bastard! Fuck you! This should have come to me! It should have been mine! Fuck you! You fucking damn cat! Ughhhhh!"

Why the hell does he have it instead of us?!

This damn bastard cat!

He fucking scammed us again!

Fuck!

"You bastard! This is nowhere near that shadow stone you gave us! The balance is off by worlds! Gimme me something to balance out that imbalance! Fucking pice of shit!"

<Nyaaaaaaaa! Not my neck!"

I was shaking him whole holding him by neck, and this bastard cat was just screaming?

He was just screaming without tears?!

Not even fake tears?!!

"You should cry bastard! You scammer!"

A star fragment was a treasure to even the higher beings but gets it just because he opened some chest that should have been ours?! This fucking piece of white cat!

<Nyaaaaaaaaa…! Lucy stop her! Lucy!>

"Stop her?! Fuck why would I!? Fuck this! Why doesn't we get something this useful instead of useless things?! Fuck this shit!"

Even Lucy was angry at this whole shit. Of course he would be angry!

This whole probability shit was absurd!

[[ To think you gave a star fragment to your dimensional merchent… it's generous of you master. ]]

"You wanna die Cary! I will happily choke you to near death if you say one more word!"

[[ … ]]

[[ However though, one truly believes it was not fair. One just opened a treasure chest that should have belonged to you but the reward that one obtained through it belongs to one that opened it instead? Was there a prior agreement between you three? ]]

"Yes fuck! We wanted a shadow stone to upgrade our weapons a while back and he said he would agree to the deal only if we let him open the next chest that we get. Ughhhhh! El agreed without even thinking of the possibility that we would get the highest grade chest!"

"Oy bastard! I did think there might be a possibility that we could get the highest grade chest but how the fuck was I supposed to know he will get a star fragment from it of all the unfuckingimaginable things?!"

"Fuck this, ughhhh! My head hurts now! Fuck! Fuck you bastard Raz!"

[[ However master, if one already an agreement in place, then doesn't that mean the young one isn't at the fault here either? One just got lucky and won something good. Is there really any reason to be so angry? ]]

"Of course Anna! This is called wanting one's anger at oneself! Fuck! I should have never let you agree to that deal! For a damn star fragment! Shit!"

<Nyaaaaa… but its not my fault that I got this star fragment alright! Why are you both beating me up for something I didn't even do?!>

"Because when a friend fails a lottery after spending a fortune on it, it feels bad. But when that same friend wins a lottery after spending a single coin on it, it fucking burns the soul you bastard!"

<What's my fault in this though?!>

"Your fault is nothing damn! Just shut up and let us fucking curse! Aghhhhhhhh!"

This happens to us only, right?!

'I was happy for a moment and thought I can have whatever that comes out of that chest now but of all the best things one can get from this damned chest, he had to get this one fucking piece of star that attaches itself to the one that got it?!

Of all the fucking things present in this damned Worldline?! It had to be fucking a star fragment?!

Why wasn't it a relic or something super amazing like some amazing artifact, ancient artifact, something from old times, something secret from a highly advanced group, or even something else?!

It would have been alright even if there was something else that bound itself with the owner! There are ways to change the ownership of some bound artifacts that few in the Worldline knows of!

We could have done that if it was something good but this?! This fucking star fragment?!

It was just a fucking material that was damn stubborn! There was practically no way for anyone to change the owner of a star fragment that's why the higher beings usually just brainwash those owners or employ them as their servants or make them their own to make the fragment their property.

'I know for a fucking fact that this bastard cat needs these fragments for his grans plans and the shitty things he does all around the Worldline but why does he had to get what should have been ours?!'

"Aghhhhhhhhhhh!"

I don't like this!

I don't fucking like this!

"Aghhhhhhhh-ahun ahun."

Why am I so unlucky?!

Why am I so fucking unlucky?!

*

[[ Wow master. You lamented over the loss of a star fragment for three whole hours? I didn't know you had it in you to feel bad at not getting something so sim- ]]

-Smack!

"I told you to shut up. You did, for three hours, you certainly did. But did I give you permission to speak that you are trying to comfort me with that fucked up smirk? Are you some kind of sadist that likes their master's misery?"

[[ NO! I- ]]

-Smack!

"I still didn't say you can speak. And, come here. Stay still for a moment."

[[ What doe you m-… ahhhhhhh! Master?! What was that for?! ]]

"Stay still."

[[ Ahhhhhhh! Aghhhhh! Ouch! Ouch! It hurts master! Master! ]]

"Three scales and you are screaming so much? Weak basted Cary."

[[ It hurts alright! Any dragon would scream when their scales are plucked out like some flowers! How are you even doing this?! ]]

"With this special relic that Raz lent me? Well, this is pretty useful, you know?"

[[ It hurt! You are bad master! You are the sadist one here! Look at tha poor one! He didn't do anything but you beat him up just because he got something good from a chest that YOU agreed to let him open?! ]]

Raz had some blue bruses and strangling marks and stuff all around his body but, well, he was pretty strong. What can a mere mortal like me do to someone like him anyway?

"Do you want me to pluck out a few more?"

[[ NOOOOOO! Please master! No more! ]]

He really hated pain hun? Cute bastard.

"Alright then. Just rest here."

I put the little dragon down and caressed the head of my still crying baby brother.

He didn't like this thing. I knew how he was feeling since we were talking about something that was absurdly far more useful to us than most other beings of the Worldline.

But, what can we do now that the things had already happened?

"Anna? Can I have a few of your feathers please?"

[[ Hmmm? Sure. How many would one like? ]]

"Six should be more than enough. You see, I am going to bond with my first summon."

[[ Ohhhhh?! Is one going to perform a bonding ceremony?! Do you need one's help?! ]]

"You want to help as well? Hehe, cute Anna. Alright then, here. Can you please prepare the bonding circle?

The target is a specially intelligent young slime without any specific attributes.

I luckily summoned it during our exam so make sure you make a good enough magic circle for a perfect bonding."

[[ Wooooooow! Just the fact that one found an intelligent slime makes this more exciting but for one to use special material to cause an artificial evolution makes this even more exciting! Leave the magic circle to one! ]]

She grabbed all the materials from my hands with her beak and flew over to the open area behind the couches that we were sitting on.

'Things have already been fucked up for tonight, and it will soon be morning anyway. Might as well just finish the last thing I was going to do…'

I found a good slime in the labyrenth and now, it was finally time for me to make it completely mine.

And, since my head was fucked up from the shit erlier anyway, trying out another fucked up thing was not that difficult anymore.

Even Lucy was crying and lamenting so he wasn't going to stop me.

And, since I was going cray and using Raz's fut, Cary's scales, and Anna's feathers anyway, I might as well just throw in every absurd thing that could create a harmonic balance.

And to do that, I will have to ask fro some more things from this half dead kitten of mine… which he will happily give me with a bloody smile on his pretty face.
