His Infinite Mana was not an offensive or defensive Trait, but an Auxiliary one that supported him in such a major way that he could easily beat other Blessed with it.
Of course, he did not know if the Infinite Mana Trait was considered one of the highest tiered Traits, but he believed so! When looking at the ranks of Alpha, Beta, Delta, Epsilon, and Omega...Noah would say his Trait belonged to Omega!
But he had no confirmation of this as they had not collected enough information about Traits, so he would hold off on the judgment for now as waited to see what his second Trait would be.
[Your second Trait...well, you will see it soon enough. It should be another Auxiliary Trait that will allow you to completely dominate those pointing their sword at you when it brought to completion. Even at the first stage of its awakening, it should be on par with some of the most powerful Traits existing in the Nexus Galaxy.]
The voice of the Novus Galaxy resounded out once again as Noah nodded, closing his eyes as he focused on seeing his new self-awakening in the Nexus Galaxy!
---
In the dark alley where a being should have just faced death, a figure that released fearsome blue and golden lights in his eyes looked towards his surroundings as he breathed in.
A name was rolling off his tongue over and over again as he was seemingly getting used to it, his eyes somewhat hazy as he absorbed numerous flows of information!
"Alexander...a Blessed on his way to participate in the Blessed Imperial Selection, but met the unfortunate fate of suddenly being killed out of the blue."
The voice that held a tinge of pride and arrogance threw this being off as he closed his eyes briefly, sorting the abundant amount of information when at this moment, he felt the influx of a unique essence wrapping around his origin!
This essence was coming from the surroundings nearby, being the essence of the Galaxy itself as it went on to awaken a Trait in Alexander!
This was something extremely new and foreign as this being already had a Trait before, but the moment he faced his death this Trait was taken from him, only for his figure to be rejuvenated a millisecond later as he was now awakening another Trait.
Alexander closed his eyes tightly as he felt his head pounding, the essence of Galaxy swirling around his brain as it focused here for his Trait! The essence only converged faster and faster as it rose in density until finally, Alexander opened his eyes again as they shone with white light!
New knowledge flowed into his mind as he felt the appearance of a Trait, and the identity of this Trait making his eyes shake because of the sheer ridiculousness that just its name represented!
"She wouldn't be this crazy right?"
Noah, or more aptly named at this moment, Alexander, shook his head in a stupor as he looked at the second Trait he had in this lifetime.
[Alexander King][Title(s):HIDDEN]
[Trait(s): HIDDEN, Protagonist]
[Bloodline(s): HIDDEN]
[Origin Core(s) : HIDDEN]
[Domain(s) : HIDDEN]
[Vitality: STAR FORGER]
[Focus: HIDDEN]
[Strength: STAR FORGER]
[Law(s) : HIDDEN]
[Authority(s) : HIDDEN]
"...no f.u.c.k.i.n.g way."
A completely new stat panel that had much of its contents hidden as if one was looking at a redacted doc.u.ment appeared in front of Alexander's eyes, causing him to release expletives as he glanced at it! Much of the information was hidden because in this new galaxy, even though the one known as Noah retained half of his Origin which granted him access to the powers and laws that he had cultivated so far, they had to be hidden from the eyes of the Nexus Galaxy itself!
At this moment, this galaxy would just begin to notice as a large consumption of essence that awakened this Trait should have been noticed by it, but when it glanced towards Noah, all it would find was a peculiarity that awakened another Trait and not be able to find anything else about him! This was because unlike the Novus Galaxy, the Nexus Galaxy did not have something like the Ruination Core, and the impossible things and abilities that the Novus Galaxy carried out were not something this galaxy could do.
But all of this was not the most shocking information that took Noah's attention, with another thing that appeared in a pristine white color appearing that shook him to his core!
The most shocking information was the second Trait, a Trait that had the ridiculous name of [Protagonist]!
[Protagonist]!
What did this term represent? It represented a leading character or a central figure in an event or story, it represented the being that everything revolved around.
Noah was shaking his head in stupefaction because shockingly, the Novus Galaxy had chosen such a term for the second Trait, which had tremendous implications for what exactly would be contained in this Trait and what type of support it would give!
He could not wait any further as he zoomed in on the Trait of Protagonist, wanting to see exactly what shocking thing he had just gained this time around!
Chapter 628 - You see, I actually wasn't that OP before III
[Protagonist] :: You are the protagonist. To live up to such a title, abilities worthy of creating a true Protagonist are granted. As it is a culminated Trait, it has different stages that each have their own abilities. Currently Unlocked Ability(s) : Eyes of Truth, Photographic Memory, Memorable Visage, Blind Luck. Locked Abilities: Plot Armor, Chosen Extras, Deus Ex Machina, Chosen One, Save Point, @#%#%@$. To increase the stage of the Trait and bring it to complete fruition, you must play the central and decisive role in the Nexus Galaxy.
"..."
Alexander stared at the blue screen in front of his eyes with sheer and pure shock as he did not even know where to begin!
'This...this is just ridiculous…'
His thoughts were swirling around his mind as his other body that was light years away looked towards the obsidian core that represented the Novus Galaxy in shock as this information was transmitted to him.
"This trait…"
[If you want someone unbeatable, you have to naturally think outside the box. This Trait is the realization of a far-fetched possibility, if you could really culminate it to completion, the tools available to you will ensure that you will keep your life even while facing the most powerful enemies.]
RUMBLE!
A shocking truth was released as the madness of this Novus Galaxy continued to go to even greater heights, a Trait of stupid proportions being culminated in Noah's new identity in the Nexus Galaxy!
What Offensive Trait? What Defensive Trait? Could those compare to a Trait that was actually called Protagonist?!
Noah shook his head as he reeled in his shock, focusing on the feedback of information that his new identity, Alexander, was receiving.
He first focused on the stage of abilities that were currently unlocked with just the newly awakened version of this Trait, beginning with the extravagant sounding Eyes of Truth.
[Eyes of Truth] :: Glance upon the many things in the vast galaxies as their secrets are laid bare to your eyes.
[Photographic Memory] :: Forgetting things? What's that?
[Memorable Visage] :: As the protagonist, you begin to take the central role wherever you go, your visage being remembered by all who lay eyes upon you as you automatically give out a favorable impression, as well as garner prominent attention from your enemies.
[Blind Luck] :: Fortunate things just seem to happen to you out of nowhere. You could just be walking across the street and find a million dollars by the roadside.
"..."
Descriptions that seemed to be overly simple and taunting were laid out in front of him as he did not even know where to begin!
Blind Luck, Memorable Visage, and Photographic Memory were ridiculous, but they were understandable.
It was [Eyes of Truth] that Noah was looking most closely at as he tried to understand it!
He wasted no time as his thoughts went towards this skill, using Eyes
of Truth on himself.
DING~
A soft sound rang out through his mind as numerous words appeared on a text box in front of him. It wasn't the usual blue panel boxes that he could see because of his Realm System, but a red textbook that shone with gold words as if it wanted to be known it was distinct from anything else!
[Alexander King] :: A Blessed born in the Brightgold Monarchy Realm located in the Nexus Galaxy. [Life History][Strengths][Weakness][Ability(s)][Trait(s)][Habits]...
His eyes opened wide as he read on more and more, shockingly finding out that almost every piece of information about him was listed on this red and gold box panel that popped up after using [Eyes of Truth] once!
His life history, his strengths and weaknesses, his abilities, even his habits! Everything was laid bare in front of his eyes as they shook, his question going towards the usability of this terrifying Eyes of Truth as he wondered-
'This is what will pop up if I use it on anyone?!'
His eyes rose in alarm as he thought about this fearsome ability from the Protagonist Trait, as this single ability alone had such shocking implications that he could not even begin to list them all out!
If it really showed him the contents of the red and gold panel when he used it on anyone, then all the secrets about that person- their entire life- would all be accessible for him to read and do what he wished with such dense information!
This was...too shocking!
He thought he was strong before.
He thought he was maybe somewhat overpowered to be able to do the things that he had been doing.
But now with such a second Trait called Protagonist and the ridiculous abilities that came with it...
THUMP!
He felt the beat of his heart as he finally turned his face upwards and looked around him in the new world, nay the new Realm he was in.
His expression was that of amazement and absurdity as he stared at the skill while beginning to look around him. He was located in a dark alleyway between two enormous buildings, but if one stepped out from this alleyway they would step into a bustling world full of activity!
The more shocking thing was that as Noah looked around him, the Eye of Truth unconsciously activated as his eyes shone with an enticing red light, the information of everything around him going towards his mind.
[Rickter Auction House] : An establishment in the Imperial Citadel of the Brightgold Monarchy…
[Red Lantern Tavern] : An establishment in the Imperial Citadel of the Brightgold Monarchy…
Information of everything around him was clearly displayed in front of his eyes as he stumbled out of the darkness and towards the light. He went towards the brightly lit street in the cover of night as everything shone with resplendent light, his eyes beginning to look over the beings nonchalantly moving through the streets!
[Donny Sharpton] :: A citizen of the Brightgold Monarchy Realm located in the Nexus Galaxy. [Life History][Strengths][Weakness][Ability(s)][Trait(s)][Habits]...
[Rachel Zang] : A hidden operative of the Imperials tasked with covertly maintaining the order of the Imperial Citadel. [Life History][Strengths][Weakness][Ability(s)][Trait(s)][Habits]...
[Simon]...[Jake]...
Numerous names and everything about them rose in front of Noah's eyes as he shook his head in wonder, officially beginning to look at the new galaxy he found himself in as he also explored a shocking new trait. It displayed the Traits of everyone he looked at, their strengths and weaknesses...everything!
It was genuinely a balance-shattering trait of ridiculous proportions, where even the abilities unlocked at the first stage were this powerful. There were still unlocked abilities that had just as shocking names, and all of this was waiting for Noah to start moving towards as he made his first steps in the Nexus Galaxy!
Chapter 629 - The Imperial Citadel of Brightgold Monarchy
Noah condensed the knowledge he had amassed so far about himself and his surroundings as he walked happily through the streets of the Imperial Citadel.
The streets he was walking on dripped with the aura of extravagance and richness as the very road he was stepping on...was made of gold!
Spectacular lights permeated through the streets he was in as they made the cover of the night seem like day, the unique style of buildings being something you would call modern because of their aesthetics, but they also looked medieval because of their ancient and old air!
One thing they all had in common was that almost every single building shone with colors that weren't too distinct in the night, but Noah could make out they were white and gold.
It was a genuine Citadel filled with unique architecture that shone with white and gold, the people around walking through it varying in power as he had truly seen too many. The shocking thing was that the lowest ranking beings he came across were actually at the EPIC rank.
Not a single being ranked B, A, or S in his own terms walked the streets, where even the weakest beings were EPIC rank!
Those at the Saint Rank were abundant, those standing at the Void Realm being many, and he even came across multiple World Rank experts that were nonchalantly walking and talking or going into certain buildings.
Star Forgers were among the rarity, with him not coming across a Nebula Realm being just from the few minutes of walking.
All of these beings he came across had differing powers, with some carrying hints of Law Masters, others having the unique aura of a Blessed, and some having neither. But Noah could not stop looking around in amazement as all these beings that were passing around him and going on about their night...he could see everything about them with the Eyes of Truth!
Their abilities, weaknesses, life history...everything was shockingly privy to him because of his Trait.
He had focused the Trait on himself once more as he had pulled up the red and gold panel that had his information, going over the last few events listed in the Life History of Alexander King as he came to know exactly what had occurred right before he transmigrated.
[Alexander King] (Life History) :: … 03/18/XXXX- Was walking across the streets of the Imperial Citadel as he prepared for the yearly Blessed Imperial Selection when a gravitational force pulled him into a dark alleyway and he was dealt a heavy injury by a peak Nebula Rank Shadow Imperial under the command of the Young Master of the Light Dawn Household.
Shockingly, Alexander had been targeted and killed by a Nebula Rank expert, and a peak one at that!
Noah had yet to affirm how many stars one would have to forge in their Nebula to be considered the peak of the Nebula Rank, yet a guard of just one of the powerful households in the Imperial Citadel had taken this rank!
Of course, as they were identified only with their rank, it meant they did not have the title of a Controller or Blessed as those heights were still rare to achieve for nobodies. But the reality remained as Noah found himself in a grand new Realm of a shockingly powerful Galaxy that had lived for many years.
Beings here did not just have a thousand or two thousand years to rise up through ranks, they could have had thousands and tens of thousands of years depending on their talent to grow stronger before their lives ran out. This made way for a Realm such as this Brightgold Monarchy Realm in this Nexus Galaxy to have many beings that Noah would consider experts moving around!
Alexander himself was only at the Star Forging Realm as he registered his name on the list of hundreds to be participating in the yearly Blessed Imperial Selection that allowed citizens of the Brightgold Monarchy to distinguish themselves and have the chance to join the ranks of High Imperials- beings that directly worked for the Imperials to explore the expansive universe!
Yet before he could even put his foot in the door, his life was taken.
But from it, Noah came to be as he found his Vessel and awakened another Trait of his own in this body. And at this moment, whether it was by the workings of fate or not...the goal of this Alexander was very much in line with Noah's!
He had
to explore this Brightgold Monarchy Realm as he understood the Imperials that controlled not just this, but the entire Nexus Galaxy as he fulfilled the requirements of culminating his second Trait.
The requirements listed for him to become a central figure in the Nexus Galaxy, for him to truly live up to the name of the Trait before he could ascend through its stages or complete it.
This Trial that was known as the Blessed Imperial Selection which the owner of this old body was killed for...Noah would participate in it as he made his grand entrance into the Nexus Galaxy while understanding the forces working within!
He walked through the Imperial Citadel of this Brightgold Monarchy as he used the [Eye of Truth] on anything that walked, being able to absorb so much information that even the very natives of this Citadel would soon be behind him in terms of knowledge of it.
When he added another ability of the Protagonist Trait, the [Photographic Memory]...everything just clicked into place too damn perfectly.
He saw that even though it was deep into the night and would soon even change into dawn in this Imperial Citadel, the movements of beings within it were just as vibrant. A wide smile overtook his face as he breathed all of this in while his feet took him towards the location where Alexander inadvertently had not been able to arrive at before.

As Alexander took his first steps in the Nexus Galaxy, Noah was in the Novus Galaxy with a wild and dominating look in his eyes as he stared at the panel in front of him.
