Chapter 459: Karmic revelation

"Yunan is much more unreasonable than that, a dead universe may attract his attention and just as likely pass by him unnoticed. If you want him to revive it, he would do so, just because you asked, but what value is there in a dead universe" Tasha was rather confused about the whole thing, although she had accepted that her world was more than likely dead, she could not help but feel emotional at the thought of having it revived.

"Half-dead" corrected Death. "My master has been the one holding onto the universe and has kept it from decaying completely, but the recent end of those who were part of the bet has let Null reconsider some matters, including but not limited to the revival of dead and dying universes, especially those who lost their fate, Yunan meanwhile is part of a larger experiment, about universes that lost their fates and if the could still survive and for how long they could last, his stunt of merging universes is annoying but Null is rather content with what is going on".

From Death's point of view, Yunan was having too much fun, travelling the void, making friends and enemies left and right, and more importantly, he was meeting the most fabulous people in the void. Although he would not admit it, Death has been missing the liveliness that he encountered in Universe Hosana, all thanks to some coincidence.

"Well, since Yunan will probably try it just because it is you who is asking, I assume, there are things we need to prepare? Or is Null letting us do it our way?" Tasha was still not completely back to her normal self, one of the things that held her hope for what seemed like an eternity was hope, the hope to see the places where she made her most beautiful memories once more.

"There is nothing to think about, I suppose, just let the kid do it his way, Null should not interfere too much in the current phase, the lower Primordials are getting antsy as of late, hopefully, the kid can stay quiet for a bit longer and let things settle down a bit".

While old man Death and Tasha were talking about this and that, Yunan and Effort were fine combing through a lifetime worth of experiences and memories, the wood witch had left behind everything, quite literally, Yunan found that she even left her earliest memories, behind, all that was left was a seed of sorts, the core and root of the flower, Effort sent it back to Hosana Universe.

While Effort was taking in every sensation, Yunan was focused on things related to karma and how it affected those who it was dumped upon, how the wood witch dealt with it, how it was absorbed and purified and then given back to the villagers as pure karma, neither good nor bad just pure karma, something that Yunan never knew about before.

Among the things Yunan found deep in the memories he got was how this flower could manipulate Karma, it was the faith of her followers. when those worshippers prayed to the flower, their extreme Karma tainted their faith in some way, giving the flower its ability to absorb Karma and purify it and later on manipulate it in its purest form.

On the other hand, Effort was collecting all those trials and errors, all those accidental successes, all the epiphanies, the eureka moments, and distilling it all into the purest essence of effort then injecting them into Yunan, slowly conditioning him, training him to become a Karmic manipulator, named so by Effort for the obvious reasons.

As the two digested the power and memories, Yunan started feeling lighter, his hangover and bloatedness were gone, his senses were becoming clearer and he could now sense his Karmic luck ability clearly for the first time.

Before today, every time the Karmic luck trait activated, Yunan either never noticed the activation or just happened to have a gut feeling about it, strong or weak, it was always just a gut feeling. Now, however, thanks to all the pure Karma he got his hands on, he could clearly feel his only innate ability.

Karmic luck was so much more than he ever believed, it was not just Karma or Luck, no, that was the least of it, the ability that has single-handedly brought Yunan to godhood was much more than what he thought it was before. It was not only linked to his Karma and Luck, no, it was also linked everything.

Everything related to Karma or Luck was linked to this ability, as if it was the spider at the heart of its web, a single tug could change the look of the entire web, or smaller actions and individual threads, all at the will of the spider.

Before; Karmic Luck only worked on Yunan, changed his life on a small scale, finding a golden book down in the labyrinth, hatching a dragon, finding the legacy of a powerful god, things revolved around the owner of the ability at first, but as he started getting beyond the scope of mortals, the Karmic Luck started affecting others, his teachers, his family, a premonition on a cosmic scale, a prophecy that touched beyond the walls of the home Universe, and the latest known activation, changed things that were beyond the scope of knowledge of Yunan himself.

An ability with this much growth and potential might have been wasted on any other person, but not on Yunan, for he had no use for it, he was happy if it activated and made his life easier, and was just as happy if it did not, to Yunan this ability was always a luxury, something that he did not have control over but still benefited from, now that he could feel it, he knew how wise his young self was in not ignorantly relying on this strange ability.
