Single Wish: Rise Of The Omniscient Paragon



"Hmm."

As Corey looked at his status screen, a slight frown emerged on his face.

He was not surprised by the fact that his attributes had reached the last phase which was the Violet Star phase. A phase which most races could not reach due to their racial limitations, and also a phase which if heard by the top forces of the universe, would cause battles to be waged so as to either recruit Corey, or… kill Corey before he becomes a threat.

Corey's gaze shifted from his status screen to his hands. He clenched his fists tightly, and despite feeling the large amount of power running through his hands, through his body, he still had a slight frown on his face.

"Why do I still feel this way?.. Is this the limit or not?"

Corey mumbled as he felt that despite reaching the last phase, the phase that every top race aspired to reach, there was still more for him.

He had this feeling that he could still go further than the Violet Star phase. His body felt like it could still take more energy, and this feeling bothered him.

Corey had actually reached the Violet Star phase the previous day, which was when this inexplicable feeling started.

Due to this feeling, he spent all his value points on elemental stones to see if he could surpass the supposed limit which was the Violet Star phase.

But no matter how many elemental stones he absorbed, his body was like a bottomless pit that swallowed all but gave nothing back in return.

Although Corey had this feeling that he could surpass the Violet Star phase, he knew that if he decided to max out his level, he could reach the next tier.

He could ignore this feeling, kill some weak tier 2s and become a tier 2.

And him deciding to do that would not be a bad decision at all. Even in the long run.

Very few people could reach the violet star phase in the entire universe, and very few reached 100% of the Violet Star phase.

Although it was somewhat easier for Corey to reach the Violet Star phase due to him being a Paragon and the Paragon Ancestor helping him, one should not forget everything Corey went through to become a Paragon, and all that Corey would still go through for being a Paragon.

But despite Corey achieving the Violet Star phase, Corey was not satisfied. He wanted to achieve stat maximization, and if the maximum stat for a Paragon exceeded the Violet Star phase, then he'd achieve that stat no matter what.

But to know how to do that, he needed information, and the only person he could safely ask was:

"Nina."

Corey spoke out loud, but after waiting for ten seconds, he received no reply.

He frowned, then he spoke once again.

"Nina. I need your help."

Corey waited for a few seconds, but when he received no reply once again, his frown deepened. His lips parted open, but just as he was about to speak, a tired voice flowed into his ears.

"Why are you disturbing me Corey? You already know the solution to your predicament. The Paragon Ancestor has already given you the solution to it. You just don't want to do it because you're worried and scared."

Hearing the words of Nina, Corey's eyes darkened and a tinge of fear appeared in his eyes. He looked upwards and with a tone that contained slight frustration, he spoke:

"Isn't there another way?"

"Unless you want to waste your value points on almost a thousand elemental stones or you find a rare treasure that can help you. Then I don't see any other way for you."

Nina's nonchalant voice flowed into his mind and Corey kept gazing upwards for at least five seconds before he released a sigh.

"I'm so fucked."

Corey spoke with a frustrated tone as he held his forehead with his eyes closed. He released another sigh then he spread out his right hand, and a green book appeared in his hand.

"Alchemy."

Corey mumbled as he looked at the book of alchemy which was the solution Nina was talking about.

His mind went back to the first time he read the book of alchemy, and how fascinated he was by alchemy. Until… he tried it himself.

What is Alchemy exactly?

Alchemy is basically the transformation of two or more products to a new and better product through a series of meticulous procedures.

This was the basic description of Alchemy that Corey read in the book of alchemy, and this intrigued Corey during that time.

He read more about alchemy in the book, and the more he read about alchemy and the wonderful effects of his products, the more fascinated and interested he was towards alchemy.

The book of alchemy had so much information on alchemy. It was written according to sections, with the first section being the introduction to alchemy, and the subsequent sections, were alchemy for tier 1s, tier2s, tier3s, and so on.

The book talked a lot about rare materials, how to gather them, how they are ranked, how to identify them and so on and so forth.

It also talked about alchemical cauldrons, how to make one, how they are ranked and so on forth.

It also talked about the final alchemical products which were pills, elixirs, and paste. It explained their ranks, their refinement processes, the purpose of certain pills and so on.

The information contained in the book of alchemy, was so heavy that Corey had not actually read up to one percent of the entire book.

And due to how voluminous the book of alchemy was, Corey always read a little bit from the book every day. Though, on a particular day, Nina disrupted his reading of the book and warned him of the repercussions of practicing alchemy… in his universe.

"If you're planning on practicing alchemy, you should know that alchemy is banned in your universe. If you attempt to create a product from alchemy, you'll face a tribulation."

These were the words of Nina on that particular day, and Corey was at first surprised that Nina was the first person to start a conversation between them. But as her words sunk into his mind, Corey was confused and he asked her what she meant.

Why was alchemy banned from his universe, and what is a tribulation?

Corey asked her these two questions, and the reply he got were:

"The answer to your first question is to prevent the creation of another Ancestor of Paragons, and the answer to your second question is, if you want to know what a tribulation is… just do it."

Remembering Nina's words on that particular day, Corey's lips twitched as he held a little bit of resentment towards Nina for not telling him what a tribulation truly was.

After hearing the repercussion mentioned by Nina, Corey, although was not nonchalant about it, he did not take it as seriously as he should have. Until, he decided to try it himself.

The following day, Corey decided to practice alchemy and concoct a tier 1 elixir that would increase his attribute points by a large amount.

He followed the procedures mentioned in the book of alchemy, and everything was going well, until he began to approach the final stages of his concoction.

Black clouds appeared out of nowhere above the building of the hotel room he was concocting in, and although Corey did not see what actually happened on that day, due to him concocting.

But despite him not been able to see the black clouds on that particular day, he still remembers the chills and overwhelming sense of danger he had when he decided to continue concocting.

At first, he planned on ignoring the danger, but with every second that passed, the more the feeling of danger increased.

In fact, the amount of danger he felt on that day, reminded of the level of danger he had when he encountered the creatures of the void. Though, it could definitely not compare to it.

After he remembered how dangerous the unknown could be to him, especially if he faces it unprepared and nonchalantly, Corey decided to stop his concoction process.

And although, it pained him to stop the concoction process since concocting was not by any means a simple feat, Corey decided that the next time he decided to concoct, be would take precautions.

But the problem with that, was finding what could actually protect him from the tribulation.

"Funny enough, it's because of this universal ban on alchemy that I'm able to profit so much from Neon."

Corey mumbled as he released another sigh.

One of the reasons why there was nothing like a healing elixir, stamina restoration elixir and so on, just like in various games and novels, was due to the Universal ban on alchemy, which prevented people from practicing alchemy.

But despite this, Corey found a way to use the Universal ban on alchemy to his advantage, in terms of Neon.

'Now, I just need to find a way to protect myself from… two unknown tribulations.'

Sigh

Ring

Ring

Just as Corey released a tired sigh due to him remembering The Tribulations of Hell which he knew nothing about, the sound of an ice cream truck resounded in the room.

Corey frowned slightly and just as he looked at his U-Watch, the image of The Clown popped up from it.
