Doomsday Life Simulator System In A Zombie Apocalypse World Update Era-Chapter 74: Order King and Golden Time
{Hint Prompt: Spirit Manifestation Core is dropped when a Spirit Avatar Master dies. However, it’s not guaranteed, as not all Spirit Avatar Masters will drop a Spirit Manifestation Core when they die.
Spirit Manifestation Cores also appear in spirit-rich areas in the Spirit Avatar Master World.}
{Hint Prompt: To use the Spirit Manifestation Core, place it on either your forehead or chest where your heart is, then visualize absorbing the spirit energy within it.}
[After receiving those hint prompts, you informed Jade and Scarlet about the method to use the Spirit Manifestation Core.]
[Afterwards, the three of you placed it on your forehead and started absorbing the spirit energy within it.]
[As you absorb the spirit energy within the peak silver-grade Spirit Manifestation Core, you feel as if a soothing cold energy washes over your mind and body.]
[After a few minutes of experiencing such a wonderful sensation, the Spirit Manifestation Core cracked and shattered, devoid of any spirit energy.]
[But when it cracked, you felt something inside your mind awaken.]
[Instinctively, you let it out, and a humanoid figure appeared beside you.]
[The humanoid figure was made out of spiritual energy, but due to the dense spirit energy it contained, it was visible to even normal humans unless you chose to hide its existence.]
[Observing the humanoid figure, you noticed it wore a king’s royal attire. It wore a golden crown on its head and draped a royal mantle over its shoulder.]
[In its right hand was a royal scepter. It didn’t have any discernible facial features, and it possessed a materialized energy-like white color as skin and flesh.]
[As soon as it materialized, you instinctively knew the two abilities your Spirit Avatar, Order King, possessed.]
[The first and core ability of your Spirit Avatar was called World Order. With it, you can set rules in a certain area and anyone with it, including yourself, would have to abide by it.]
[For example, you can set the rule of "Spirit Avatar abilities cannot be used in this area". And so, every Spirit Avatar Master can summon their avatar but not use their abilities.] 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚
[The energy consumed using World Order was proportional to how unfair and difficult the rule is. If you set an order that only restricted others but not yourself, the spirit energy consumed would naturally be higher than if you were also affected by that order.]
[Aside from setting rules, you can also use it to order something to abide by your command. Like, for example, you can order someone to do your bidding.]
[As for your second ability, it’s called Exile. With it, you can forcefully remove a target from a designated area and send them outside a "domain boundary".]
[Moreover, targets exiled from a certain territory will not be able to return to that territory for a given amount of time, depending on the energy consumed using Exile.]
[It’s an ability best used when wanting to remove someone powerful or troublesome from a battlefield you were in. That way, they wouldn’t be able to return for a given amount of time.]
[After having Order King, your Spirit Avatar, you were very satisfied since its skill set doesn’t conflict or overlap with what you already have.]
[Moreover, the two abilities weren’t useless and even quite overpowered, especially the first ability, which could literally set rules and order in a given area.]
[While you had already awakened a Spirit Avatar, the same could be said for Jade and Scarlet.]
[Releasing her Spirit Avatar, which was a golden pocket watch that floated beside her, Jade explained, "My spirit avatar is called Golden Time. It allows me to store the time in the world and then release it."]
["The stored time will be used to fuel my two Spirit Avatar abilities as they not only need spirit energy but also stored time."]
[Jade continued, "The first ability is called Time Stop. It’s self-explanatory as I can use the stored time I have to stop the time around me."]
["The more stored time and spirit energy I used, the longer the duration of Time Stop. Moreover, while I don’t have a limit on how much time I can store and how much stored time I’d use, it still has a downside of having more spirit energy used the greater the time I use."]
["For example, stopping time for a minute will consume more spirit energy than stopping time for 10 seconds six times, even if both will use up a stored time of 60 seconds each.]
[To give an example, Jade activated her time stop, and from your perspective, she suddenly arrived next to you.]
[Not only that, you felt as if your lips and cheeks were kissed, noticing it was slightly wetter than before. Yet, you didn’t have any memory of it happening.]
[’Is time stop this absurd? It might also be due to Jade and me having the same rank, which is at the Peak Silver rank. If I were of a higher rank than her, her time stop might be less effective.’]
[Thinking of this, you asked, "Jade, did you just kiss me while time was stopped?"]
[In response to your question, Jade smirked and teased, "Guess?"]
[Hearing her teasing, you weren’t going to let her get away with it. Since she had already sat beside you, you extended your hand towards her and pulled her into your embrace.]
[Afterwards, you leaned your face into hers and then pressed your lips with hers, kissing Jade.]
[Jade didn’t resist, and she closed her eyes, enjoying it.]
[After a few minutes passed, you and Jade separated, but when you did, Jade chuckled, "You are so impatient. Look, Scarlet headed to her room in embarrassment."]
[Only with Jade’s playful rebuke did you realize Scarlet had left the living room.]
[You scratched your head in embarrassment. However, wanting to change the subject, you asked Jade, "What’s your second spirit avatar ability?"]
[Jade’s gaze towards you after you asked that question made you notice that she knew you changed the subject, but she still answered:]
["My second ability is called Future Sight. How much I can see far into the future depends on the stored time and spirit energy I expended."]
