Trees... orchards... surround me as I walk between various different rows. Platinum, Titanium, Aluminium, Gold, Copper, Bronze, Cobalt, Diamonds, Opals, Emeralds, Lapis, Carbon Fibre, Lead, Zinc, Lithium, Tritium, Iron, Steel. All of these trees were growing multitudes upon multitudes of riches. Gold was amassed every day in the wagon load for the economy as my personal fund swelled to dragon-adjacent levels. Opulence flooded the infinite space of storage that was now at my beck and call as I increased my skills in forging and enchanting passively through Shadow Clones.

It had been a week since I had slain Yuuki and much had changed in my activities. No longer was I holding back in caution and fear of the future. My powers were being used on the daily now to better the lives of our citizens as well as increase my own power. Shadow Clones had been integral to this process as I now had several hundred summoned a day. Much like in Naruto they could learn things and gain enlightenments for me, processing vast quantities of information for me on the fly whilst giving me every little fragment of experience.

My cultivation was no longer stagnant as my five of my clones were dedicated to meditating on concepts, essences and drawing in Magicules every day. Another ten were grinding away at paper work, signing off on new projects and industries constantly. Fifty helped me create the massive orchards that I now walked amongst on the floating island of Tempestus. Hundreds of thousands of trees were now the bread-makers for our entire civilisation. Forges were constantly fuelled with coal and charcoal as trees produces those. The clothing industries and many more that relied on textiles were full to the brim with basic resources to use. Abundance was everywhere, for everyone; for those who could grasp it. But most essentially, I had enormous abundance...

Mammon Morgoth was constantly growing, my power in the ultimate skill becoming increasingly potent. The rest of my shadow clones had been focussing on uses of my Ultimate Skills, training within demi-planes and extensively exploring the boundaries of my abilities. Thus far I had found that my Infinite Mind Ultimate was not just purely about mechanical recording of information I consumed, no, it was far more than that. I literally had no capacity, meaning that I had effectively infinite memory storage for all information, muscles memory, scientific knowledge, magical understanding, emotional responses... All of it was at the complete infinite of capacity. It was a paradox within itself as I effectively had 0 and infinite capacity at the same time. What this meant for me? Shadow Clones were super effective with me as all information could be stored, every, little, bit.

Time was not my enemy at all, it never was, it was my lack of clarity on understanding it the limited me... And I knew that now, and I had changed because of that comprehension. Several hundred workers picked numerous trees in front of me, grasping at tear-drop shaped Rubies, these otherwise precious gems being thrown into the cart below with lacklustre caution. This sight was no longer rare to me as I had thrown hundreds of kilograms of similar precious gems into my storage all at once just yesterday. Speaking of Ultimate Skills explored more... My Nature's Sovereign Avatar had much deeper powers than I realised, for instance, I could command all of these trees to focus on production, forgetting about expanding outwards. 

Naturally this was massively profitable as now the growth cycle of the trees was reduced massively, their production upscaled to insane ratios. Apart from this I explored my transformation ability a lot more and found that not only could I transform into Unicorns and Pegasai but also Beholders, Adult Dragons and Qilins... The dragon transformation wasn't anywhere close to True Dragon level but the form was certainly massive, physically powerful and long living. With this exploration my shadow clones also established a permanent connection between my mind and the nature of the entire Jura Forest. I could now see, feel and hear through all of the flora with complete clarity. Along with my shadow clones and my infinite mind this meant I could create clones anywhere within the forest, at any time.

These weren't the only skills to be tested however as Creator and Anti-Skill underwent copious testing, especially the soul manipulation that these two Unique Skills allowed. Quickly I found myself loving these skills as they served to guide me towards the path that would most likely lead me towards godhood. As I had thought before, the Ultimate Skills were fragments of Veldenava's godly domains. He was a very powerful god it seemed and these powers were fragments of his existence. To be clear, I had no illusion that he actually was a 'creator' god... No, he was simply a being of a dimensional existence above my own, his very body containing these forces and powers.

Either way, I had discovered the higher level of skills than Ultimate, Origin. None of mine were close to becoming an Origin Skill but this would begin to change as I consumed more skills and Ultimates from other people... As they say, the more puzzle pieces you have, the faster you can put together the entire puzzle. What made me less concerned with gathering these Ultimate Skills now however was the existence of essences that practically ensured that I could gain origin skills in this universe. In other realms or universes this would not be such a guaranteed thing but here? It was easy, especially since there was no deity in control at the moment.

There was no feeling from the liminal space in this time either, it's presence utterly quiet. It was worrying to me somewhat but to ignore this unfixable feeling of foreboding I had turned to giving Yuna control over the kingdom we had conquered that day, also giving her the small little fox that had somehow just appeared at my feet.

Unfortunately for present me however my peace was squashed as in the orchard ahead of me the figure of Dr Paradox stepped out, his green gas rising into the sky as his magic condensed around his form like a cloak of unknowable mystery. His bird turned its head at me and narrowed its slinking eyes, Ancalagon growling within my shadow as it began to stare off with this creature.

"Silviana! Good to see you. It seems you have become more powerful... Wonderful. Now is a good 'time' to tell you then."

I couldn't see his face but I felt as if his face had just cracked a smile at the word time, his tone behind the mask suggesting that he knew I would make this transformation or at least that I had the possibility to reach this point.

"What is it?"

"Well... We're going to get invaded."

"... ... ..."

"Yes, shocking, isn't it?"

"Is that why you smell like cinnamon???"

"Surprisingly, yes!"

"Mmm'kay... Where and when, who and what?"

"Where? The entire sky of Tensura. When? Relative. Who? Eldritch monsters from the realm of souls. What? Chaos."

"Y-you must be fucking with me... Warhammer 40k???!!!"

"Ah! You know about that story?! That's good, you get the picture then."

"HOW!?"

"To quote a certain funny YouTube series... 'Warp realm fuckery'."

|Oh, oh fuck... We may need to think of evacuating this planet to another universe!|

'Okay, i am asking a shit ton of question right now, but I need to ask more! WHY!?'

|Tiamat and Gaia told me that if the demons inside the Realm of Souls ever came here that I was to immediately take you away if you were in danger... Regardless of any connections you have made.|

'O-o-okay... Well, please hold off on that! I'll come up with something...!'

"It seems that multiple deep warp entities are starting to gain interest in this universe due to its lack of guardian gods."

"Fuck. So basically, it's down to whether someone can become a god before they arrive or fleeing..."

"Indeed! Luckily we have you, Milim and Rimuru here to expend power to let us all run away."

"What of you? Can't you help?"

"I am afraid that I am plagued by a paradox that would cause the immediate entropy of this entire multiverse should I even think of using all of my power. What you have seen is but a fraction of my overarching abilities."

"F-fuck..."

HEHEHE the plot thickens... If you read RBSM, well, you'll get the reference, most likely... hehehe

Sorry for the short chapter, this is basically a time skip chapter to get to the next 'volume' (So to speak) of NLTO.
