Chapter 912: 912. Small star
Noah quickly contacted Thirty-seven, who appeared in a matter of minutes. The automaton then controlled the formation so that the energy radiated by the flares would flow into other parts of the dimension.
"Are you sure about this?" Thirty-seven asked. After all, that was the darkness that Noah had poured for weeks inside the cubical formation.
"Yes!" Noah shouted as he stood on the verge of the formation. "Just let it happen."
Noah's memories of his past life weren't helpful in that situation. He didn't study the stars enough to affect the procedure without risking to disrupt the natural evolution of his darkness.
So, he had decided that it would let his "Breath" regulate itself. Noah felt confident that its laws would force it to act according to his needs.
The flares became less intense as the less dense darkness flew away from the formation. The collapse of the star continued though, and it eventually stabilized when it reached a small spherical form.
Silent seconds passed as Noah, the automaton, and June inspected the small sphere that had replaced the massive star.
The sphere was so dark that their eyes found it hard to define its edges. It was as if light couldn't even come near that form, which made it appear as a black orb that distorted the air around it.
However, Noah had familiarized himself with his higher energy in the last period. He could understand that the same type of energy made the sphere, even if it appeared far denser than before.
The surface of the sphere remained still. Not even a ripple ran through its shape. Still, it floated on its own, and the trio could feel the intense gravitational pull around it.
Noah suddenly took a step forward, ignoring the surprised glances that landed on its back.
The gravitational pull became stronger as he neared the minute star. Yet, he was a hybrid in the upper tier. Enduring that traction force was something that he could do with a bit of effort.
His mind started to expand as he neared the floating sphere. More insights on the laws of creation appeared in his thoughts under the influence of the higher energy.
Noah decided to slow down his advance at that point. He didn't know how many enlightenments the sphere could provide, but he felt that it was better to focus on them before interacting with the result of his procedure.
Thirty-seven and June watched in silence as Noah took small steps and many breaks as he walked toward the little star. His eyes would often be closed too since his focus was on his mind.
Noah spent half a day like that, slowly nearing the most stable result that his procedure had been able to produce.
However, he eventually reached the sphere, and that was when he decided to touch it.
Noah's fingers stabbed the surface of the star easily. It was scorching, and it wasn't solid at all. Instead, it seemed made of a dense gas that acted as if it was a liquid floating in the air whenever someone affected its shape.
Noah felt even more insights on the laws of creation fusing with his mind and becoming something similar to soft instincts as he kept his hand inside the fist-sized star. He needed an entire day at that time to exhaust the enlightenments that his higher energy could provide.
'I see,' Noah thought as he retracted his hand. 'Improving the outcome of my forgings is just a side effect. This energy hides far more, but I'm still unable to see it.'
