29 Chapter Twenty-Nine(29)

Briefcase Solar System,

James' True lab,

James could be seen in an armor made entirely of Tenth Metal. James could be seen standing with his hands stretched out and two orbs could be seen floating there. Both orbs were large and red in colour but one of them was way larger than the other, one was the size of a wrecking ball and the second was as large as a tank. The wrecking ball was James Jaspers' powers and the much larger one was Matthew's, this was a clear indication who was stronger or at least who held more overall power

At the moment, James was working to condition the two orbs to his liking and as well as his physiology after all his body was much more advanced compared to both James Jaspers and Matthew. Manipulating the two powers to suit him should be easy especially since he was using Reality Warping abilities to do so but due to the fact that the owners of the two powers were at least on a Universal level, James had to use abilities greater than that to alter the structure of these abilities meaning he would have to have Multiversal level Reality warping

The amount of power one can produce using Element X was directly proportional to the amount of Element X one had or wore. The Tenth Metal ring could only warp reality within a certain distance around him, the gauntlet covers the entirety of Earth and the Hulking suit James was currently wearing, allowed him to warp reality at a universal scale at the very lowest. Making it the best to reconfigure these two Universal+ abilities to suit him

"That should do it" James said as he put down his hands but even then the orbs still looked the same

"Paris, wish me luck" James said as he returned most of the Tenth Metal he was wearing back to the Resource dimension.

Even though he was extremely sure that Paris would never betray him, it was way better to be careful after all Paris was a sentient being and can one day decide to betray him and if that day ever came, James didn't want her to have any sort of access to the Tenth Metal. Who knows what she could achieve with it, maybe even perfect her cosmic body by merging with the metal even if it's just a tiny amount of it thus achieving true Nigh-omnipotence and one should know, there is only one truly Omnipotent being in this Omni-verse and that's the One Above All, everyone else, the Beyonders included is Nigh-omnipotent at best.

[You don't need luck when we both know, you would survive easily] Paris replied from where she was sitting and watching, she even had 3D glasses on

"Why do you have those glasses on"

[So I can enjoy the show better] Paris replied without even skipping a beat

"...."

"Imma just ignore that for now" James said then turned back to the massive orbs before him.

For safety purposes, James started with Matthew's Orb as he placed his bare hands on it and almost immediately, James felt some sort of energy break through the Orb's surface and aggressively find its way into his body but with the ring helping to calm and stabilize the rampaging energy. James didn't feel a thing, in fact James stood still for an entire hour as the orb slowly got absorbed into his body but even then he didn't feel any different from usual.

This was abnormal but James didn't seem to be too concerned about it because he knew why it was so. The Ring he wore allowed him Omnipotence within a certain radius around himself so he was basically using the ring to contain the new power he just gained and because he was already omnipotent…. Though within a specific area, he didn't feel any more powerful than he already was. The ring granted infinite power within a certain area and the Orb did the same but adding infinity on infinity just gives you infinity so James felt nothing but he knew that as soon as he removed the ring then the power he just absorbed would manifest.

A full hour had gone by when the orb finally disappeared with all its energy absorbed into James' small frame. James waited a bit to really adjust his body to the level of power he just gained then turned to the other Orb which contained James Jaspers' reality warping powers. It took nearly an hour to absorb this orb too despite it being smaller than Matthew's but it was something to be expected after all Jaspers was a Multiversal level threat at the lowest so James didn't expect to absorb the entirety of his powers easily.

After absorbing the two orbs into himself, James calmly sat down to calibrate himself and ready his mindset. He had welded power that could allow him create and destroy everything ranging from Multiverses to Omniverses and he didn't lose his mind but there was a clear difference between those times and now. At the time, James created this solar system, he had gone through multiple options, he created a multiverse but destroyed it because it was too big and he didn't want to feel responsible for the lives of the quadrillions of people in that Multiverse then he created a Universe because it was much smaller but then realized that while it wasn't as big as a Multiverse, a Universe is still pretty big so as usual he ended up destroying it then there was the final option, a solar system which he created but ended up destroying because he had other ideas.
