NOVEL NEXT Chapter 53 Synergy
Zero was surprised at how quickly the system was able to change Yoko and Valna. When he last tried to upgrade Yoko's soul it had taken him 30 minutes just to merge 2 souls with hers but the system had done it in less than a minute.
Now that the process was complete Zero who was drained of mana walked to Nova who had behaved well and waited for him to finish. When he reached Nova she hugged him and asked if the 2 women would be okay to which Zero affirmed that they would be fine. Feeling tired Zero picked up Nova and left the coliseum and found a tree to sit under with Nova.
"What's wrong papa?" asked the curious Nova who saw that her father was acting weird.
"Nothing I'm just a little tired and I need to sit down for a while." answered Zero as he leaned against the tree and waited for his mana to recharge.
"Okay then Nova will be quiet while Papa rests." said Nova a little disappointed
"No it's okay I can talk while I rest." said Zero
"Really Yay! So Papa where do you go when you disappear?" asked Nova
"I go to a different world when I leave here." explained Zero
"Really, can I go too?" asked Nova with a pleading gleam in her eyes.
"Okay but it's a dangerous place so when we go there you have to do exactly what I say okay." said Zero as he smiled and patted her on the head.
"Okay, Nova promises!" yelled the excited Nova
Zero then stood up having recovered enough mana to open a portal to Dracula's Castle. He picked up Nova and walked through the portal. They appeared in the Underground Reservoir where he had once left Yoko to collect the plant monster souls that were used to create Nova.
"There are no trees here Papa." said Nova
"Yes, that's because we're inside a castle in the moon right now. When we leave the castle you'll see a lot of trees." said Zero
"Then can we leave the castle now?" asked Nova
"No I have to help a friend here so we have to stay until I finish." responded Zero
"It's good to help friends." said Nova
As they walked and talked they soon arrived at an area filled with dryads and alura unes. What happened next was wired as all the dryads and alura unes instantly bowed down to them well more specifically to Nova.
Zero guessed that they sensed that Nova was a high-level nature being. It was more natural than when he made the curlys bow down to his strength before. They were completely docile and looked at her as if she were their creator-made flesh.
"Why do they look like monsters? Whoever made them should make them better." said Nova
The statement caused them all to look up with a depressed look on their faces. They didn't have much in the way of intelligence but they seemed to understand that they disappointed Nova.
"Why don't you take them back home and make them better." suggested Zero
"I can't take them if they belong to someone else." said Nova
"Don't worry you can take them if they want to go with you." responded Zero
"Really I can!" said an excited Nova
"So do you know how to make them better or should I do it for you?" asked Zero
"No I think I can do it if I go to my tree." responded Zero
The dryads and alura unes all looked at Nova with a smile and nodded giving their consent. Zero then produced a portal to his dimension and walked in causing 52 dryads and 61 alura unes to follow behind them.
They arrived in front of Nova's world tree and Nova jumped out of Zero's arms and ran to her world tree. Placing her hand on the tree trunk caused the trunk to open up like what Valna described in her story and she motioned for the 52 dryads and 61 alura unes to enter. They all walked into the opening and it sealed back up as if it had never existed.
"How long will it take?" asked Zero
"Hmmm I think I will be done in 15 minutes." answered Nova
"Okay then I'll be over there call me if you need anything okay." said Zero
Zero walked a few feet away sat under a tree and activated his synergy skill. He had been dying to try out this skill ever since he saw it in status. A screen similar to the one from life creation appeared so he wondered if his system could be used to operate the skill.

Skill Explanation:
MANA NEGATION: The user can create a field or area where they can cancel out the superhuman powers and effects that originate from magic, spells, curses, hexes, jinxes, and charms of others or simply "dampen" or just weaken powers. Others are unable to use their powers as long as they are in the user's area of effect.
DARK ENTITY LORDSHIP (VAMPIRE, REAPER, and DEMON): The user possesses absolute power over all existing dark entities, including themselves, and can freely bring new ones into existence. The power encompasses all kinds of dark entities but due to restriction it currently only has power over vampires, reapers, and demons with a soul rank weaker than the wielder. The dark entities can be controlled, summoned, redefined, banished, erased, and recreated at will, the user's power over them transcending any potential resistance or limitation.
DEATH MAGIC: Users of this power can utilize powerful spells that involve death itself, which can be extremely potent magic that can cause any living thing to die or cause powerful spells using the supernatural forces of death, either instantly or eventually. Users can also manipulate the dead, death, death-force, and souls. They can also communicate with the deceased – either by summoning their spirit as an apparition or raising them bodily.
CONJURATION: The user can conjure forth any form of creatures, items, spirits, demons, deities, or elementals by summoning them directly without the need of a magic spell or creating them in any particular way to do the bidding of the conjurer.
CHAOS PRIMORDIAL (RESTRICTED): The user is becoming a primordial cosmic source of chaos forever bound to and representing the concept of the infinite cosmos. They are on their way to becoming a Primordial Embodiment, the living source of a concept. Users can be best described as not being representative of their concept, but rather they are the concept itself. As such, they are the source of all other embodiments that share their concept; without the user, their concept would cease to exist.
