The World Serpent

The People around the Serpentine Head of Persia were talking to each other. Though, Mayon noticed something strange. She looked upon the Serpentine Head of Persia and noticed that Persia was currently under a Frozen State. Persia didn't move a single muscle, which made Mayon furrow her eyebrows. Mayon turned her gaze towards Statera and spoke with a calm voice. 

"Your Majesty, It seems that something is wrong with Master Persia." Her voice echoed as the Spirit Lords, Supremes, Demons, Statera, and Ego herself stopped and turned their heads towards her. Statera raised an eyebrow as Mayon pointed her finger towards the Serpentine Head of Persia. All of them looked at the Serpentine Head of Persia and instantly noticed the strange phenomena. 

"What the-?" Koldreg questioned as to the Serpentine Head of Persia got frozen in time. The Supremes didn't even notice it, which turned their expressions from aloof to a serious one. Statera looked at Persia with a Serious expression and thought to herself. 'What happened? Why did she freeze?' She had a lot of questions within herself. 

Though, fortunately. Ego was standing right beside them. Such a frozen phenomenon was normal as Ego would notice it when her Sister talked to the System. She looked at them and explained with a calm yet monotone voice. "There is no need to worry. My Sister has a business within her mind." Her words echoed as the people around her nodded in understanding. 

"I do wonder what kind of business she is doing within her mind," Drya questioned while gazing upon the Frozen Serpentine Head of Persia. Ego released a smirk as she didn't answer Drya's question. The group of people continued talking to each other, though Ego stood right beside her Sister's head, with a Soothing smile plastered on her face. 

Meanwhile, Nyx looked at Ego as she noticed someone tugging her clothes. She turned her head towards the one and saw Lilith. The two of them had been together, especially when Nyx took care of Lilith when Lifa and Ego were not around. It was kind of awkward at first, but Lilith and Nyx effortlessly got close to each other. 

"Is there something wrong?" Nyx asked with a calm voice. Lilith looked at Nyx Purple Amethyst Eyes and nodded. Lilith then replied with her soft voice. "After meeting with a lot of strong people, I want to be strong. No! I need to be strong." Lilith gazed upon Nyx with a determined gaze. Nyx slightly chuckled and patted Lilith's head. 

"I had the same words in mind. I want to protect those important to me. According to the Original, getting Stronger is one of the most important ways to get a Peaceful Life without anyone bothering me. Do you agree?" Nyx questioned with a smile plastered on her face. Lilith tilted her head and thought about Nyx's words. 

After a while, Lilith nodded and replied. "Getting strong is important to have peace. After all, you are not in control of Fate and Destiny. Nothing is impossible, so preparing for the rare occasions is extremely important." That was the lesson that kept echoing within Lilith's mind after the destruction of her Village. 

"I see..." Nyx smiled as Lifa stood right beside Lilith and asked with a Soothing voice. "Are you okay, Lilith?" It was a simple question. Lilith turned her gaze towards Lifa and nodded in agreement. Lilith then replied with her soft voice. "I'm okay, Aunt Lifa." Lifa released a smile after hearing Lilith's words. It seemed that Lilith was a lot stronger than Lifa had Originally thought. 

On the Circle of the Supremes and the Spirit Lords. Drya was staring at the Elf, which she had found to be with Persia and Statera. She was curious about the origins of the Elf. Her Curiosity easily got detected by Statera, which made Statera question. "Are you curious about her, Drya?" The Great Ruler of the Elves must have questioned about the Elf that came from Another World. 

"That's correct. I have been curious about that Elf for a while now." Drya honestly answered, which made the Supremes and Spirit Lords turn their gazes towards Lifa. "An Elf?" Koldreg questioned as Kitsune spoke. "Isn't that the Elf that appeared with Statera and Persia? Now that I think about it. I am curious about her Origins." Kitsune instantly realized the questions that surrounded the Elf. 

The questions have arrived, and Statera answered each of them one by one with her Seductive Voice. "Her name is Lifa. She is an Elf from a World outside of the Realm of Piksyon. She is weak, but her extensive knowledge gathered in that World is quite high." Statera explained Lifa's name and her usefulness to the Supremes. Statera then continued her explanation. 

"She came from an Ef Tribe with a known leader called Stein." The Supremes raised an eyebrow as Drya couldn't help but stare at Statera with a shocked expression. "The Best Elven Scientist that disappeared and got presumed Dead?" Drya muttered as Statera nodded. Statera continued the explanation with her Seductive voice. 

"The Elf Tribe led by Stein had a Good Mana Spot. Though for that reason, they got invaded, and most of them died, including Stein. The only survivor is Lifa and the Daughter of Stein named Lilith. They are currently under the arms of Persia. After all, Persia destroyed the City that annihilated the Elf Tribe." Statera smirked as Drya had a Serious and cold expression plastered on her face. 

"Elf Hunters? Attacking a Sacred Mana Spot?" Drya mumbled as Koldreg and Kitsune looked at her with complicated expressions. It has been a while, but Elf had a history of being hunted. Either for their Beauty or their Aptitude with Nature. All of them hated slavery with the core of their beings. The fact that the Elves on the other World got hunted down was Extremely a nostalgic word to hear for the Great Ruler of the Elves. 

"The Elves were quite weak in that World. Elves scattered all over the Continent,  and they couldn't unite each other due to the difference in culture. They were the example of the Primitive Elves long ago before the Unification." Statera honestly explained everything as silence enveloped everything. 

As they talked to each other, Persia gazed upon the Notification Window and thought about the Origin Skill that she could get. It has been a while since she had received an Origin Skill through an Origin Skill Acquisition. It was why Persia was Deeply thinking about the Origin Skill. 

'Do I accept it?' Persia thought to herself. She then quickly shook her head as it was an idiotic thought. She would, of course, accept the Origin Skill with a smile on her face. Why shouldn't she agree on the acquisition? It would be foolish not to take the Origin Skill. With this in mind, Persia's thoughts echoed within the System. 

'Proceed with the acquisition.' With a simple thought, It was time for Persia to gain her new Origin Skill. A Notification Window then appeared in front of Persia's sight.

[Origin Skill acquisition accepted.]

[Proceed with the Operation for acquiring Origin Skills.]

[Origin Skill, Aegis.]

[Combination with Absolute Fortress Defense, Absolute Pain Nullification, Absolute Acid Nullification, Absolute Radiation Nullification, Absolute Thermal Nullification, Absolute Astral Nullification, Absolute Elemental Nullification, Absolute Pierce Nullification, and Absolute Shock Nullification.]

[Combination will now begin.]

Persia already expected the Origin Skill to be mainly Defensive. It was clear from its Skill Combination and its name. Though, Aegis was probably the most costly Origin Skill in terms of Skills. It was expensive than the World Eye and the Dominion Sovereign. It even conquered most of the Nullifications except for Toxin Nullification. 

Thinking about the Origin Skill, Persia wondered what it could do. It was a Defensive Origin Skill, but what kind of a Defensive Origin Skill was it? Such was the question that kept echoing within Persia's mind. There was nothing Persia could do other than wait for the Description. After all, the Origin Skill Description would materialize in front of her. 

New Notifications then appeared in the Notification Window. Persia looked at it intently and started reading it. 

[Combination Complete...]

'I hope the Defensive Origin Skill would be useful. Or I'll curse RNG.' Persia thought to herself as she started hoping for the Best. It took a lot of her Nullification Skills, so she expected it to be Useful or else. The Description finally appeared, and it was time for Persia to read it. 

[The Aegis is an Origin Skill related to Defense. The Aegis requires a lot of Nullification Skills. After all, its Main Strength comes from the fact that it could Nullify. It can Nullify anything and can sufficiently defend the User against any attacks in existence. It might use Energy, but it is efficient in terms of the Energy to Enemy Power Ratio. The Aegis would form a Shell or Barrier which would protect the User.]

'A Shield that can Nullify against any Attacks in existence. It is an Overpowered Defense Ability.' Persia thought to herself as she was satisfied beyond anything about the Origin Skill she had recently gained. Her Battle Style would finally change. She would have to adapt to this New Origin Skill of hers. 

Meanwhile, on the outside, The Serpentine Head of Persia was smirking.. Those around the Serpentine Head couldn't help but feel a chill on their spines as they noticed the Scary Smirk on Persia's head.
