The Primordial Record novel Chapter 1831

Chapter 1831: Aftermath (1)

With the completion of Telmus’s ascension to Primordial, Rowan began to face new challenges.

Every breath that Telmus took was siphoning an incredible amount of Ether from his Origin Land. He was losing two percent of his overall Ether Capacity every second, although Rowan was regenerating his Ether even more quickly than this consumption, he was dimly aware that Telmus was slowly getting stronger.

If he did not handle this correctly, then he might not be able to hold multiple Primordials inside his Origin Land. 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

Expanding his consciousness power to tackle the source of the problem, it did not take long for Rowan to discover the root of the issue and the methods he needed to use to stop the drain.

The answer was almost instinctive, but Rowan wasn’t sure if he wanted to implement them.

Ether was a powerful force, greater than Aether and Aetherium and reaching the potency of "Primordial Essence." A single drop of Ether was enough to transform the body and soul of an Old One and give them enough fuel to fight for billions of years.

The entire race of Elythrii, who had built their society around Ether for hundreds of thousands of years, had not even consumed one-tenth of a drop of Ether in all this time.

However, every time Telmus inhaled, he was consuming billions of drops of Ether; this number was so ridiculous that even a Primordial body should not be able to accommodate this amount of power, not because of its potency but the sheer volume.

Rowan’s investigation had revealed that although Telmus was consuming billions of Ether droplets every second, all of that Ether was being transformed into Origin Power.

This process was the final step in Rowan’s Ascension, which would transform his energy stores from Ether to Origin.

Telmus Ascension to Primordial revealed another secret of the ninth-dimensional realm to Rowan and exposed one of the reasons Primordials hunt down Realities: the answer was Origin power.

A Primordial needed Origin power to function and grow. Only a profound energy ot this level was able to support a being as powerful as a Primordial. Still, they could not create Origin power; that privilege was left to Realities.

It was already amazing that Rowan, being technically a Reality at the eighth dimension, had enough energy stores to be able to withstand the consumption of Telmus, but he knew it was because of his ceaseless evolution and ascension.

Back when he had less powerful energy stores with his Primordial Seas of Light and Darkness, a single breath from Telmus would have drained him dry.

Still, even with his current energy stores, Telmus had just been born, and already there were warning signs. What would happen when he became stronger or when he entered battle?

In battle, Rowan did not expect Telmus to be drawing in only a few billion drops of Ether but multiple trillions of drops with every moment... and a moment for a Primordial did not mean a single second; it could mean stretching a second to a trillion years.

In battle, it was possible for Telmus to exhaust his entire storehouse of energy in a single second! Except Rowan chose to cut him off, he would not be able to endure feeding a Primordial.
