Rebirth: Tyrant's New Reality

[Since you have occupied the Taywit forest, it will start producing Dream Fragments upon your command. Dream Fragments are mini dimensions filled with dream monsters. Your woman can kill monsters there regularly whenever a Dream Fragment appears. Doing so would produce reality essence for you].

‘Oh? However, you sounded like I can’t do that.’

[Indeed. You cannot enter a Dream Fragment. Dream and Reality are opposite in a way. As your existence bears the reality system, you can’t interact with a Dream Fragment. If you do that, the Dream Fragment will become reality and wreak havoc everywhere because turning it into reality would make it significantly more powerful].

‘I smell some deeper plot regarding this… What’s the catch?’ Arkhen asked.

[Mystic Wonderland function unlocked according to your innermost desires and wishes. However, even if it did not, something similar could have unlocked with those regions, and Dream Fragments would’ve also appeared for sure.

[So, you would’ve required people for these Dream Fragments either way. It’s good that you have a harem, which makes it easier to erase these Dream Fragments].

‘I see. But the reason?’

[The reason is… Dream system. Just like you have a Reality system. There’s also a Dream system].

Arkhen was stunned. ‘That…what?’

[But that system is not in this World of Nine Realms. I don’t know much about it as well. But you will get answers in the future. Anyway, there’s nothing to worry about the Dream system now because I don’t know much as well].

“Arkhen? Brother Arkhen!?” Meya was shaking Arkhen after seeing him entering in a daze for a few seconds since he was talking with Velshi.

Snapping out of his daze, Arkhen shook his head quickly a couple of times and turned to Meya, “You can indeed help me. But not now. I’ll tell you when I need it.”

“Ok. But what were you thinking?”

“Nothing. Anyway, show me around this sect. What about your place? Where do you live? Also, how’s Gereld doing?”

“Haha, come. I’ll show you around. As for Gereld, he should be returning after completing his task.”

…

After an hour, Arkhen, Meya, and Gereld could be seen sitting at a table in a peaceful courtyard with some snacks and teacups on the table.

“Arkhen, you can just fly here from Mortal Chaos peak when you are there. We will go on a mission together,” Meya said with a grin. “Anyway, the master is sure taking a long to make your arrangements.”

The Mortal Chaos peak was right beside the Illusion Flower peak. Moreover, this courtyard of Meya and other sections belonging to Lady Rong and Gereld were also at the near edge of the Illusion Flower peak facing the Mortal Chaos mountain.

So, Arkhen could fly from Mortal Chaos Peak to here whenever he wanted.

A minute later, Lady Rong also arrived.

“Arkhen, the arrangements are complete. However, since I directly recommended you to become a core disciple of the Mortal Chaos peak, you will have to go through a test. If you pass, then you will receive the same benefits as a core disciple,” Lady Rong said as she also sat down at the table beside Meya.

“Hehe, brother Arkhen will definitely pass!” Meya said with a confident smile as she chuckled.

“I don’t doubt that,” Lady Rong said with a smile.

“It still feels surreal that Arkhen is giving me a threatening vibe now,” Gereld said with a rueful smile and shook his head. “I can’t understand how that’s possible when you are one class below me.”

“You will know in the future,” Arkhen said with a faint smile.

“Also, Arkhen. Do you have any particular occupation in mind? Or do you want to try out all before deciding?” Lady Rong asked.

“I’ll focus on Alchemy,” Arkhen said.

“Alright. Alchemy is good, you can earn money fast as long as you are talented in it,” Lady Rong said with a nod.

“I am learning about Jewelist,” Meya said and showed her index finger to Arkhen as she said with a cheerful grin, “look. This is the first accessory I crafted. It’s just a 2nd class ring, but it works.”

Suddenly, she remembered something and turned to Lady Rong, “Master! You have to do something about that Refal!”

“Is he still annoying you?” Gereld asked with a speechless expression.

“What still? He never stopped in the first place, humph.” Meya snorted annoyingly.

“Alright. I’ll reprimand him when I see him,” Lady Rong said with a smile as she patted Meya’s head.

“So, when do I have to take the test?” Arkhen asked.

“After an hour. Just take some fresh air here and relax until then. As for Meya, and Gereld. Did you finish learning the first stage of the Illusion Flower Field Technique?”

“Yep, I finished learning it,” Meya said with a grin.

“I also finished it,” Gereld nodded.

“Good,” Lady Rong said before she turned to Arkhen, “Each field technique has five stages. Since Meya and Gereld are my disciples, I can teach them the complete Illusion Flower field technique. However, normal disciples need to use their contributions to buy 1st to 5th manuals of field techniques of their respective peaks.”

“Then I guess core disciples have some leeway in that,” Arkhen guessed.

“Yes. If you pass the test and become a core disciple, you can acquire 1st to 4th stage of the Mortal Chaos field technique. For the 5th stage, you still need to acquire contributions and use them to buy them. However, if the vice-peak master or peak master wants to make you their disciple, you can get the 5th stage easily,” Lady Rong explained.

“I don’t know if I want a master over me,” Arkhen said as he rubbed his chin. “What are the benefits aside from the complete field technique?”

“First, people won’t offend you, and you can throw our weight around in the sect,” Meya said with a grin.

Gereld and Lady Rong wryly smiled upon hearing that.

“Cough… That’s true in a way. But officially, you have a master to help you. You can ask doubts about training, occupation, or anything related to getting stronger to your master.

In a way, a master is like a parent. They will look after you and help you but also make you go through tough training to make you stronger,” Lady Rong said with a smile.

“If there are some opportunities, you will be given priority as well,” Gereld said.

“I see… Well, I’ll just pass the test my way. If vice-peak or peak master wants to accept me as their disciple, then I’ll accept it.”

“You two, go out for a while. I need to talk to Arkhen privately,” Lady Rong said.

“Ahh, I am also curious,” Meya said with a pout.

“Meya, come on,” Gereld said as he rolled his eyes.

…

“There’s something you need to know. I know you have a physique, but not everyone is capable of sensing that if you don’t show its power. Including me, only three people can sense that in the whole,” said Lady Rong after taking a sip from a teacup.

After putting down the teacup, Lady Rong continued,

“There are some people with inheritance and legacies, who may have acquired a physique like you. If you reveal your true strength, the peak powerhouses here will be able to guess that you also got an inheritance or a legacy. Revealing that will make you more important, and Peak master of Mortal Chaos peak will definitely ask you to become his disciple.”

“Oh… So, if I want peak master as my master, I ought to show my full power, right?” Arkhen spoke with a thoughtful expression.

“Yep. So it’s up to you. Now, I’m going out and sending Meya and Gereld back here. I’ll come again to take you for the test.”

“Thank you for the trouble.”
