10 The Omni Trait
Deep within the murky depths of his unconsciousness, Daniel found himself adrift in a surreal realm.
Darkness enveloped him like a thick, impenetrable fog that disoriented his senses.
"Huh...? Where am...I?"
As he gazed into the abyss around him, the fragments of his memories started to reassemble like pieces of a fractured puzzle.
"What...is this? Why am I here...?"
His thoughts raced, struggling to make sense of the chaotic memories.
But then, as if a surge of electricity had coursed through his mind, he experienced a searing pain, and his memories started to shift.
"Ack! It hurts! What is this!? Who is...this...? Li...ly? We...were at the Awakening Center...and then...and then, what happened?"
The torment within him was palpable, like tendrils of darkness clawing at his very soul.
"No...that's wrong...I was not at the Awakening Center...that's right...I was chosen to be the...servant and a slave...for....Li...ly."
His thoughts were a jumbled mess with his memories being rewritten and manipulated.
They seemed both familiar and alien, like forgotten dreams resurfacing, but tainted by a sinister force.
The agony he endured was overwhelming.
Yet, amid the confusion and pain, his mind and heart were coerced into a new direction.
He couldn't resist the idea of devoting himself to 'Lily'.
And eventually, Daniel's entire sole purpose was to serve Lily.
"T-That's right...Lily is....my...."
His memories of Lily had now been shifted and swapped to Minerva's daughter.
But Before he could grasp the true nature of his feelings for Lily, a sudden disruption occurred, jolting his consciousness.
[: Congratulations, you have awakened your Trait :]
"Trait!? Have I finally awakened it?"
He exclaimed with a mix of excitement and confusion as this new revelation filled his consciousness.
'An Omni Trait!? That's awesome!'
He exclaimed with excitement since Omni is the highest rank there is and only a few beings exist with this rank.
'With this, I can finally show to...who was it again...?'
His excitement wears down as a small pain comes across his consciousness.
It was as if there was a barrier preventing him from remembering it.
But because of his resistance, it made the corruption even more stronger.
'That's right...I now could be a worthy servant for Lily...'
It felt like he was being manipulated, but it was his honest and truest feeling.
It was as if, he had been waiting for this moment, to show his worthiness of becoming a servant and a slave to Lily.
[: Your awakened trait is Roulette Spin (Omni) :]
Reading that, Daniel was baffled by it.
'A roulette spin?'
He knows that Traits come in any form and each trait has its uniqueness, but never once did he imagine it would be a Roulette Spin.
Having said that, he was still excited and eager to explore his Trait.
[: Roulette Spin (Omni) :]
- Once a day, you'll be able to spin a roulette where you can receive rewards -
'This is good!'
He didn't know how good or bad this was, but knowing that he could receive rewards per day sounded good to his ears.
[: Do you wish to try it now? :]
Without any hesitation, Daniel's consciousness replied with a 'Yes'
His curiosity was piqued, eager to experience what this remarkable Trait had in store for him.
All of a sudden, a majestic, towering roulette wheel materialized before him.
Its size and grandeur were beyond anything he could have imagined, stretching into infinity with countless possibilities.
'There's... so many,'
He marvelled as his consciousness struggled to grasp the sheer magnitude of the choices before him.
[: Do you wish to spin? :]
Without a moment's hesitation, he affirmed with a resounding 'yes,' his excitement building as he eagerly anticipated what lay ahead.
The moment he gave his affirmative response, the colossal roulette wheel sprang to life.
It spun with a hypnotic grace that quickened his heartbeats with exhilaration.
The initial shock of awakening an Omni Trait had transformed into eager anticipation, and he couldn't help but wonder what this spin would reveal.
As his consciousness followed the mesmerizing spin, the roulette wheel eventually came to rest, the pointer indicating a single slot.
[: Congratulations, you have a Trillion Points! :]
'A-A Trillion Points!?'
Daniel's consciousness trembled with disbelief.
The sheer scale of a trillion points left him momentarily staggered.
This outcome had taken him completely by surprise.
'That's amazing! I've just won a Trillion Points!'
Even then, his excitement grew despite not fully grasping the implications of this extraordinary reward.
The word 'trillion' alone was enough to fill him with wonder, and he couldn't help but be thrilled by the magnitude of what he had just received.
'Um... but... what can a trillion points do?'
Daniel couldn't help but voice his curiosity, his excitement now tinged with a hint of uncertainty.
While the concept of a trillion points sounded astounding due to its sheer magnitude, he remained clueless about the practical applications.
However, as if in response to his query, a notification promptly appeared.
[: You can trade 1 Trillion Points by calling up Shop :]
Seeing this clarification, Daniel decided to take the next step.
Following the instructions, he summoned the shop into existence with the sheer force of his thoughts.
'Shop!'
He declared with mounting excitement within the darkness that surrounded him.
In response to his mental command, a notification materialized, revealing the gateway to a world of possibilities and offerings beyond his wildest imagination.
'What is this...?'
Daniel couldn't help but gasp in astonishment as the shop materialized before him.
The sight that greeted him was nothing short of breathtaking, an endless expanse of columns and numbers of slots that stretched as far as his consciousness could perceive.
Just like the roulette spin, the shop's offerings seemed limitless, each slot containing a unique item, power, or ability.
As he began to peruse the options, shock and awe washed over him with each passing moment.
The more he read, the more overwhelmed he became by the sheer variety and potential at his fingertips.
