MY 10,000× DIMENSIONAL SYSTEM

Goal Set

(A/N: Okay the Arc properly starts now!)

"And that should be enough for today." Christopher got up from his bed and stretched.

The room he had chosen for himself wasn't overly decorated or anything like that. It was instead made with quite the beautiful simplicity, which wasn't odd Considering that everything within the Haven of the Enlightened was top tier.

As for what he had been doing, Christopher had also begun cultivating himself. He was still debating on how he wanted to move in the future, and so in the meantime, he started raising his strength the normal way.

He used a technique of meditation he found in the great library which suited his tastes and used it whenever he had time. Which there was a lot of.

One of the perks of being able to freely manipulate the time within his Dimension was that he could create small pocket spaces where time moved very quickly. And so he could do things that would have taken him a while within a shorter period of time.

Like using his meditation technique, which was essentially built around the idea of fusing Creation and Oblivion with oneself as a Primordial Arbiter.

Even within the library, things related to Arbiters were rare and so his information on them was limited. Still it was enough to the point where he had one of their training methods.

However he was a bit of an anomaly. Well, he had always been. But basically the way the technique he used worked still bound the person using it to the framework of existence. But since he existed outside that framework due to a multitude of reasons, the growth he experienced was quite different from what the book intended.

His power was still growing steadily, however it was ignoring certain ironclad rules that had been set.

For instance, it had said that before progressing any further, he had to place an 'anchor' between himself and the two forces of Creation and Oblivion, and it had explained how said Anchor worked.

However, Christopher found himself progressing despite not having set this Anchor, and so it didn't exactly apply to him as his power was still rising steadily.

'Pretty convenient I'll say.' He chuckled with some amusement.

As for the Dimension, things were going as he had hoped. Now the various races were interacting with each other with far more unity than ever now that they had a binding force. There were still some rough edges, but it was working steadily.

His subordinates were doing their jobs as well. Christopher had been a little bit worried about Silver and the Twins, namely because Silver was still not exactly sure on matters related to beings that weren't beasts while the Twins were still children. So making them the ones in charge of security and the military respectively didn't seem prudent.

But his worries were unfounded.

Silver, despite lacking things such as empathy, was actually doing a pretty good job. Turns out that the new moon still affected his power and wherever its light shone, he could perceive what was under it. And so he had an idea for most of the things happening inside the Dimension and was able to respond swiftly and effectively whenever there was an issue.

Though there hadn't really been any huge problems yet. The worst that had happened was a case of serial assault and the person responsible… did not have it light.

But all in all, he was doing a decent job.

And the same could be said for the twins as well.

Christopher had created a special area in the Dimension for its new Army which actually had a significant number of applicants. Numbering in the tens of thousands.

They were a collection of beings from the different races. And there were even a few dragons among them.

The space Christopher had given them had time slowed to 20:1 which he found to be the limit of how far he could set it. And so everyday they trained was actually 20 days of Dimension time.

There were quite a few beings that had joined that were also experienced military commanders as well. So training was being managed fairly well.

The biggest impact though was the overall strength training the Twins made the soldiers participate in. Which was pretty heavy to say the least.

1v1, 3v1, 5v1 10v1, 100v1, 1000v1.

Those were the different combat trainings they had implemented. The individual the soldiers fought being their clones.

As such the soldiers were thrashed every time. But Christopher was impressed by their rate of growth as well as the discipline and other things they were showing.

It was going well.

Then there was Aisha who had finally put together her force as well. And unsurprisingly, the number of fate users wasn't a lot. In the end she had only managed to find 11, but they were all decently capable after being graced with the enhancement of the Dimension.

'The most mysterious sect of all which possess small numbers but have importance that far outweighs almost everything else.' Christopher chuckled, the scene looking cool in his head.

[Master.] Christopher perked up immediately the system called his name. It was rare for it to address him first, unless he had a question that is.

[The Primordial Expanse is approaching something.] Hearing this, Christopher raised a brow. And a moment later.

'Master.' Aisha's voice also sounded in his mind.

'Yeah?' He decided to let her tell him instead of simply saying he already knew.

'We are approaching something strange. It looks to be a large gathering of beings.' She said solemnly.

'Oh? How many?' Christopher straightened even more.

'... A few hundred thousand at least. And that's not all. There's something strange near them… like an opening.' Aisha didn't sound too sure, but mostly in the case of describing what she was seeing.

'That's a lot of people.' Christopher frowned slightly.

'Also, the people, they aren't all a part of the same force. In fact, they should be split into at least a few dozen groups.' Hearing this, Christopher nodded again as he found out that made a bit more sense.

'System?'He decided to ask his helper.

[It's a realm gate.] It said concisely and Christopher raised a brow.

[Beings at the Sovereign Rank and above are capable of creating realms within their souls which are a necessary part in their ascent to power. However, when they die, these realms are what remains of them and they can be entered by beings who don't exceed a certain power level. They are usually packed full with resources, Artifacts, and knowledge. And usually attract powerful forces that desire to attain these resources for themselves. So these forces assemble and enter the Realm, fight for resources, and leave.] It explained and Christopher's eyes lit up.

'Ah, so it's one of those hidden realm scenarios where strange spaces filled with resources are left behind by powerful experts. The plot thickens.' He rubbed his chin before addressing Aisha.

'What else can you deduce?' He asked and the elf was silent for a moment.

'Most of the beings there have power at the Grey rank. Some are a rank below. But there are some that are at the same level of Master. And some…' She hesitated.

'I… I can't get a read on them.' She admitted, but Christopher wasn't perturbed.

'Those ones must be at the Sovereign rank. Don't worry. You did good.' He assured her and he heard a relieved sigh.

'Keep collecting information. Namely the different forces that are gathered there, what the Realm is, the restriction for who can and can't enter, and beings that can cause a problem.' He instructed.

'Yes Master.' She said and went silent.

"Good thing I decided to keep the Dimension moving." Christopher sighed. He decided that he would let the Primordial Expanse kinda just move in a straight line while he was still contemplating matters, just in case they found something.

However it was moving far faster than most could imagine, zipping through space far faster than light.

That's because it could use its own energy to propel itself and since it had a core of Void and Creation, it could tap into the forces making up the universe and achieve impossible speeds.

Moreover, Christopher had shrunk the Dimension to about the size of a grain of sand, so not only was it moving insanely fast, it had become even more undetectable.

'Finally, something to do.' He sighed and stretched.

He was fully intent on entering this Realm and taking whatever he could for himself.

He knew that at this stage, his existence was a wildcard and something one wouldn't be able to make a contingency for. And he intended to take full advantage of it as long as possible.

"Guess I'll be able to use my new moveset soon. I've been sitting around too much." He grinned slightly. He was looking forward to whatever was about to happen.
