Ethan stood at the outer reaches of the Origin World.
As his mental awareness brushed against the boundary, a peculiar epiphany struck him. Every Origin World had a definitive point of origin, yet they lacked any visible conclusion.
While not truly infinite, their expansion seemed to defy any finality. The deeper one ventured, the more the world stretched out, as if the concept of distance was a fabrication meant to overawe even an Eternal Sovereign.
Its scale was so immense that time itself felt trivial.
Ethan looked at the small, hairy creature sitting on his shoulder. Its round form shivered slightly as it gripped his collar with tiny claws.
“Hey, Puffin,” Ethan spoke in a relaxed, easygoing manner. “Have you ever visited this place?”
The tiny furball gave a shake of its head. Its soft, radiant fur shimmered as it replied in a youthful, timid tone.
“I haven't. I dislike trouble. I usually stayed within my own lands and frightened others away so they wouldn't disturb me.”
A soft laugh escaped Ethan.
“So that was your secret.” He reached up, gently stroking Puffin’s head. “You don't have to be scared anymore. We’ll explore every Origin World together and see their wonders. Your mistress will join us, too.”
Puffin’s eyes brightened immediately, shining like miniature stars.
“Understood, Master. I'm grateful you're so kind to me,” it answered, its voice brimming with pure joy.
During the last ten days, Ethan had realized a fundamental truth.
This entity, classified as a Source Authority level terror—a being that could make entire realms quake—was essentially a child. This was true not just in personality, but in its very essence. Its mind was young, innocent, and full of wonder.
Furthermore, it was of an unidentified species. Ethan was certain that a child of an original race could never be born at the Source Authority realm; only their ancient ancestors reached such heights.
This led to a single conclusion.
The creature was not a member of any known original race.
So, where did it come from?
Ethan’s eyes narrowed slightly as he focused on the path ahead.
“Let's go in.”
The moment he moved toward the world's edge, the fabric of space buckled and rippled violently.
A gateway manifested before him.
Ethan stopped instantly.
He remained still, not even releasing his aura. His instincts, which had been honed beyond the laws of causality, signaled that something was coming through.
A few moments ticked by.
Then, a massive head emerged from the gateway.
It was the head of a dragon.
Then a second appeared.
And a third.
Eventually, five titanic dragon heads were revealed, each marked by a different element. One flared with scarlet fire, another gleamed with blue frost, a third crackled with bolts of lightning, a fourth leaked a toxic mist, and the fifth was wrapped in absolute shadow.
Finally, the rest of the massive body emerged.
It was a colossal five-headed dragon, its physique appearing like a fusion of ancient draconic lineages. Scales resembling forged divine metal shielded its skin, and its eyes held the wisdom of countless epochs.
The pressure it emitted rolled out like a massive tide.
An Eternal Sovereign.
And it was no ordinary one.
Ethan calmly adjusted his presence, intentionally masking his power to the level of the Axiom Dominion. Puffin followed suit, hiding its aura at the Genesis realm.
The five-headed dragon lowered its long necks, all its eyes locking onto Ethan.
“Traveler,” it rumbled, its deep, masculine voice vibrating through the vacuum of space. “Welcome to the Dragon World. I am Sheron, the Gatekeeper. Is it your wish to enter?”
Internally, Ethan raised an eyebrow.
‘Oh? There’s a guardian here? Interesting.’
On the surface, he kept his expression civil.
“Yes, sir. We would like to pass through.”
Sheron scrutinized Ethan, its multiple gazes analyzing him from every angle.
“The entry fee for an Axiom Dominion is five thousand Origin Coins,” Sheron declared flatly. “For your pet, it is two thousand Origin Coins.”
Ethan blinked in surprise.
“Origin Coins?” he asked, genuinely puzzled. “What exactly are those?”
Ethan couldn't remember the last time he had used something as basic as money. The concept of wealth had long ago become irrelevant to him.
Sheron stared at Ethan as if he were a strange curiosity.
“Don't tell me,” the dragon said slowly, sounding surprised, “that this is your first time visiting an Origin World.”
“That's right,” Ethan admitted honestly. “Can you explain what they are? And if it's possible, can I trade treasures instead?”
Sheron’s mouth twisted into something resembling a smirk.
“A single Chaos Grade artifact is valued at ten thousand Origin Coins,” it noted.
Ethan gave a nod.
“I see.”
His actual strength was at the Source Authority realm. Creating a Chaos Grade artifact was trivial for him.
He could manifest one whenever he pleased.
He reached into his storage ring.
In truth, he used his Authority of Creation to manifest the object instantly.
When he withdrew his hand, he was holding a golden brick.
Indeed.
A simple brick.
It was perfectly shaped and glowed with the undeniable power of a Chaos Grade treasure.
Ethan didn't want to spend time crafting something beautiful.
He offered it forward.
“I don't have any Origin Coins. Will this work?”
As soon as the brick appeared, a massive Chaos Grade pressure exploded outward.
Sheron’s eyes widened instantly.
However, as the dragon took a closer look at the artifact, all five of its heads went still.
A moment later, they all began to twitch simultaneously.
“What kind of fool would create such a ridiculous thing and have the nerve to make it Chaos Grade?” Sheron bellowed, cursing loudly.
Ethan nearly let out a snort.
Regardless of its shape, the facts remained.
It was truly a Chaos Grade artifact.
“Fine,” Sheron said after a beat, its voice dripping with annoyance. “You can go in. Don't expect change. This thing isn't worth a full ten thousand Origin Coins.”
“Thank you,” Ethan said with sincerity.
He walked forward, passing the threshold and officially entering the Dragon World.
The moment he crossed over, the auras of countless dragons flickered on the distant horizon.
His goal was far away.
The Ice Dragon Domain.
That was where Rose was located.
Ethan picked up speed, moving at the velocity of light.
Even so, mental calculations quickly formed in his head.
At this pace, it would take nearly five billion years to arrive at the Ice Dragon Domain.
He could go faster—much faster.
However, doing so meant crossing the lands of several sovereigns, and his sheer speed would surely draw unwanted attention.
He wanted to avoid that.
His primary body was already the most hunted being across many layers of existence. If his clone drew the eyes of the One Above All, there was a chance he could be traced before he was ready.
So, he held back.
Instead, he turned his attention toward a nearby territory.
Flame City.
He could obtain Origin Coins through legitimate means there.
Using teleportation services would solve his travel issues.
Ethan decided he wanted ten billion Origin Coins.
Effortlessly, he manifested one million Chaos Grade artifacts. This time, he designed them properly, giving each one practical functions and a refined appearance.
He entered Flame City and stepped into a large auction house.
“I have one million Chaos Grade artifacts,” Ethan stated calmly. “Are you interested in purchasing them?”
The appraiser, a Fire Dragon in a human form at the Genesis Realm, stood frozen.
“What did you just say?” he whispered, gulping hard. “Did you stumble upon the vault of an Eternal Sovereign?”
“That's none of your business,” Ethan answered coldly. “Do you want them or not?”
“Of course, sir!” the dragon replied quickly. “But we don't have that much cash on hand right now. There is a major auction tonight. Would you be willing to wait for it to end?”
Ethan nodded.
“I can wait.”
While standing in the auction house, Ethan took in his surroundings.
The city was filled with dragons.
Yet, every single one of them remained in a humanoid form.
This wasn't by chance.
The humanoid shape was the most efficient and versatile form in existence. Since the human race was created, all other species had slowly learned to adopt it.
Efficiency always won out.
And he intended to establish the human race itself as an original race.
