My Talent's Name Is Generator Chapter 816 Nullification

The remnants of the broken continent floated quietly in the emptiness surrounding me. I hovered there for an additional instant, the dark sword firmly held in my hand, until a well-known array of alerts materialized in my vision.

[Unique Quest Detected]

[Unique Quest: Unclaimed Throne]

[Sequence: Brother]

[Objective: Reach the Point of Designation.]

[Status: Complete]

[Reward: Fragment of the Sword Prarambh]

I scanned the last entry once more.

Fragment of the Sword Prarambh.

"Prarambh," I murmured softly, savoring the sound of the word.

The blade responded without delay.

The silver streak bisecting the ebony edge burst into abrupt brilliance. The radiance pierced fiercely, expanding from the weapon's heart. Simultaneously, the black metal's exterior grew even more shadowy, resembling newly spilled ink diffusing over it.

A fierce tug yanked at my fingers.

Agony raced up my hand as an object sliced into my flesh from inside my hold. Crimson liquid surged forth right away, trickling from my fingertips onto the weapon. As soon as the initial droplet met the silver streak, the sword blazed once again.

Essence whirled around it in twisting patterns.

My blood didn't just cling to the exterior. It shifted. The scarlet fluid extended along the silver streak like it was being pulled inside, traversing the blade before vanishing straight into that luminous core. The silver brilliance started to alter.

It became crimson.

The full streak down the blade intensified from silver to a striking red, throbbing once as the final hint of my blood disappeared within.

Then the emptiness ahead tore apart.

A round gateway emerged. I knew it at once. It matched precisely the transport gateway summoned by the system token I'd employed before for Steve and me to arrive here.

My gaze sharpened.

The energy encircling it was undeniable.

System.

For a fleeting second, I pondered its timing of involvement, yet I didn't waver. If this marked the quest's following phase, then remaining idle would yield zero progress.

I advanced and crossed the threshold. The gateway sealed silently after me.

In the blink of an eye, I stood upon firm terrain.

Or so it appeared.

I instinctively projected my senses outward, but the feedback baffled me. As much as my detection extended, only terrain existed. Infinite, fissured, ashen expanse stretching every way. The overhead sky mirrored the monotonous gray, devoid of sun, stars, or clouds.

No structures rose.

No peaks jutted.

No foliage grew.

No stones lay.

Not even a breeze stirred.

Merely level, fractured earth beyond my grasp.

I paused motionless for a few moments, attempting to fathom this realm's nature. It lacked the essence of an ordinary domain.

Suddenly, the earth before me fractured.

A keen fissure divided the surface, broadening rapidly. Rock shattered as an entity ascended from below. A blocky plate of ashen stone thrust upward steadily, compelling the surrounding soil to disintegrate.

It kept ascending.

Ten feet.

Twenty.

Thirty.

The form halted only at almost fifty feet high. It formed a massive pillar, flawlessly box-shaped, polished across all faces save for one inscription close to its summit.

Prarambh.

The term etched profoundly into the substance, shimmering subtly with the identical red hue now threading my sword.

I approached cautiously.

At the pillar's midpoint, a symbol blazed. It erupted in vivid yellow. Before deeper examination, a ray of golden illumination launched from the symbol. The ray aimed straight and bore the System's signature energy too. The energy cloaking the ray echoed precisely the one I'd encountered previously.

The ray hit the sword in my grasp.

The collision didn't force me backward. Rather, the red streak on the blade intensified abruptly. The beam's power streamed into the sword, blending with the scarlet radiance.

An alert panel surfaced before me.

[Verification Complete.]

[Fragment Retrieved.]

The red brilliance on Prarambh steadied. The yellow ray dimmed gradually, its glow merging into the scarlet streak now permeating Prarambh. The pillar fell quiet anew, though the calm endured briefly.

A fresh cascade of alerts started displaying one by one.

[Ability Restored]

[Ability Name: Nullification]

For a short while, I gazed fixedly at the title and the notion of restoration over acquisition.

Subsequent lines revealed themselves.

[Nullification – Fragment State Active]

[Source: Sword Prarambh – Verified]

[Compatibility: Executor Lineage Confirmed]

Then the explanations emerged successively.

[Ability Effect: Nullify System Contracts – May sever, suspend, or rewrite system-enforced agreements within operational range.]

[Ability Effect: Nullify System Punishment – May suppress or cancel penalties imposed by system authority.]

[Ability Effect: Nullify System Limitation – May temporarily remove level, rank, or growth restrictions enforced by system framework.]

[Ability Effect: Nullify System Encryption – May access, decode, or bypass restricted system information layers.]

[Ability Effect: Nullify Strength-Based Suppression – May negate suppression effects tied to hierarchical strength difference.]

[Ability Effect: Nullify Law Constructs – May dismantle or collapse active law formations.]

[Ability Effect: Nullify Domains – May interrupt or destabilize domain manifestation within operational limit.]

[Ability Effect: Nullify System Bindings – May sever imposed restraints, seals, or external control mechanisms.]

[Ability Effect: Nullify External System Authority – May override subordinate system directives within defined parameters.]

The roster extended further.

[Ability Effect: Nullify Forced Evolution Paths – May prevent system-driven class or race alteration.]

[Ability Effect: Nullify System Tracking – May erase or mask presence from governing observation layers.]

[Ability Effect: Nullify Energy Conversion Locks – May bypass system-regulated resource conversion limits.]

[Ability Effect: Partial Nullification of Causality Locks – Conditional. Requires further fragment restoration.]

I breathed out deliberately.

My thoughts absorbed the alerts in rapid succession. An power granting dominance over the system. Astonishment and disbelief surged within me. What events were unfolding?

This transcended mere battle prowess. This signified command. The System ruled the Prime Universe. It enforced pacts, chastisements, level caps, progression structures, entry controls, and transformation routes. It surveilled, confined, directed.

Nullification didn't supplant the System. It undermined it. It empowered me to void particular measures.

That implied if the System sought to chain me via a pact, I could break it. If it aimed to curb advancement or enforce retribution, I could quash it. If a domain tried to seal an area, I could unsettle it outright instead of brute-forcing through.

Yet crucially—

If the System comprised four segments, with three held by Theras…

Then this shard of Prarambh wasn't just an armament.

It served as a safeguard.

Amun had declared the System forged by the First Executor to aid in establishing the First Order. If Theras controlled three portions of that framework, Nullification probably existed to thwart abuse of system power.

More alerts proceeded.

[Warning: Fragment State – Limited Output]

[Warning: Overuse May Result in Structural Backlash]

[Warning: Full Authority Access Locked – Additional Fragments Required]

It remained a shard, yet even thus, its might was formidable. The ashen realm encircling me stayed unaltered, but a shift registered now. The System's essence sharpened, overlaid upon the surroundings like a subtle lattice.

For the initial occasion, I perceived its joints. Nullification didn't elevate me beyond the System. It enabled me to defy it somewhat.
