The Supreme Level Up System



As the cosmic entities known as the Aspects made their presence known, a palpable sense of terror gripped the onlookers, freezing them in awe and dread. The sheer magnitude of their existence and the unimaginable power they possessed sent chills down the spines of those who witnessed their presence.

The Aspects, beings of unfathomable cosmic forces, emanated an aura of grandeur and majesty that exceeded mortal comprehension. Each aspect embodied an elemental force of the universe, transcending the limitations of mortal existence. Their very presence distorted reality, causing the air to crackle with energy and the earth to tremble beneath their ethereal forms.

Everyone sweated cold when they returned to their era… those weren't enemies that humans were supposed to face. Even less so alone… everyone assumed that Aion was pretty much gone. However, he soon returned to the same Era as well, and he looked like nothing had happened. He also was back to his normal appearance, but there was something different with him.

"Aion! Are you all right?" Lexus asked.

"Yep, I just need a new body and to rest for a year or two; aside from that, I am completely fine," Aion replied.

Everyone sighed in relief… they wanted to know what Aion did to convince those creatures to leave him and the planet alone, but that was something that they could talk about later. They had a lot of resting to do and a lot to rebuild… many people still were missing, probably in some era where Vangel tried to turn them into mutated soldiers.

Six months passed by in the blink of an eye. The entire country still was being repaired, but things were going well. Aion finished a while ago finding all those who decided to work for Vangel and condensed them to work to repair for all the damage that they had done for as long as it was necessary.

Although the royal family was half of the problem, no one raised a complaint when Selene was crowned the queen of the kingdom and Henri, her husband, became the supreme commander of the armies.

At the same time, Aion gave his brothers full authority to control his lands further East while he received full autonomy of the territory that once belonged to his ancestors. He didn't have money anymore, so he began to work on rebuilding the capital; once he made the entire desert that had been drowned and frozen over a return to normal.

Fortunately, thanks to all that mana, the desert began to transform. Vegetation began to grow again, and the lands began to be filled with life. It was Aion's new home. So, he got lucky with it.

"I can't believe that we missed all that crazy battle," Seris said while she was drawing the new designs of the capital. "I also can't believe that I had to be saved like a damsel in distress without realizing it."

"Don't worry about it, you looked after me while I was unconscious, so I just repaid the favor," Aion said while he was building the foundation of the new capital with his magic.

"By the way, I am still waiting to hear how things ended," Arlana said while she was watching Aion work. "I didn't help, but I want to know what those beings that destroyed my era ended."

"It isn't worth mentioning," Aion replied. "If you want to know the short version, they just realized my awesomeness and decided to leave me alone. Now, less talking and more working. We need to finish this in three months."

"Three months? I know that your magic is something else and all, but…" Arlana furrowed his eyebrows. "What is the hurry?"

"In order to make up for the lost time, we need to hurry," Aion said. "Mother is looking after the border of the west side of the Zaera kingdom, but since I am going to live here, everyone wants to come here, and she is busy dealing with the transference stuff. Before this becomes a proper habitable place, we need to work, and I also promised Mom that I was going to marry you two and give her twenty grandkids."

"Eh, so you are going to marry… twenty grandkids? Are you a rabbit or something?" Arlana asked while furrowing her eyebrows.

"Wait a minute… who are you going to marry? Did I mishear that?" Seris asked while frowning.

"You two," Aion replied.

"... I don't remember saying yes, and I don't remember you asking," Seris said. "You must be daydreaming."

"I was going to ask on the day, but I guess this works as well," Aion shrugged. "I was planning to make more romantic, but, oh well. The answer is obvious right?"

"How the hell is it obvious?" Seris asked.

"Of course it is; I am the coolest and most handsome guy around," Aion shrugged again.

"I don't know about that, but you certainly are the one who is the most delusional and sure of himself," Seris asked.

"As for me… I don't mind," Arlana said while looking away and blushing. "Aion always had been a hero for me, and while I didn't see that happening, I was rescued like in a fairy tale… I couldn't ask for someone better."

"One down and one to go," Aion said and then looked at Seris.

"Well… I will have to think for a while… consider the pros and cons… and all that," Seris said while scratching her cheek.

"It seems that will take a while, and you are planning to get married when you are thirty or something," Aion shook his head. "Do you want to keep delaying until I have ten kids with Arlana?"

"You weren't joking about the twenty kids?" Arlana asked, visibly speechless.

"... Fine! If you want me so badly! Then it is fine!" Seris said.

"Act your age, woman," Aion said.

While she said that, in the end, Seris worked harder to make the ceremony take place sooner than planned. A lot of people moved to Aion's land, and a lot of people went to see the marriage ceremony as well. Since many wanted to get closer to him for their own ulterior motives, he decided to raise the taxes, and that solved the issue.

The marriage ceremony was the event of the century since the party lasted several days. Aion's mother organized everything, and apparently, she had saved a lot of money to invest in it over the years… Aion felt like sighing since his mother had overworked him so many days for such a thing.

Despite the fact that Aion had a late start, he still managed to make kids a lot faster than his siblings. In no time, and pretty much every year, Arlana and Seris got pregnant and gave him kids. Some people said that he wanted to revive the Mileris kingdom, but long had passed the time where that was indeed a problem.

Aion lived a happy life until the end… but now and then, he would have dreams. Nightmares, actually. Nightmares where he was somewhere else in a destroyed world fighting for his life… he wasn't alone, alongside Cailena, Malon, and forcing Tenebres and Vangel to help him, he fought agaisnt the aspects that saw him as a menace to the balance of the cosmos.

Whenever he had that dream, Aion would wake up and then get up from his bed. He kissed his wives and checked his kids and then smiled while looking at them. He had a long way ahead of him… but if he wanted to keep having that much happiness in his life, he had to keep fighting for it with all his might for as long as it was necessary.

One hundred years had passed since Aion began his fight against the aspects. He sent a clone back home after learning the trick from Vangel since he couldn't let everyone wait for him. He almost died… he actually died millions of times. Still, thanks to his power and Cailena's support, he managed to stay alive.

Things would have been harder if Malon hadn't given his support as well by granting him all the knowledge that he obtained over the years in terms of battle skills. Without them, he wouldn't have avoided half of his deaths.

As for the two stubborn idiots, they caused trouble to no end, but they also worked well as magic batteries for him. Thanks to them, Aion was able to produce sustenance to keep fighting for one hundred years nonstop.

"... Human, we declare that you can live on that planet," The aspects said all at once.

"I wasn't asking for permission, but it was about damn time for you to give up," Aion said, and then he sat down on the ground.

"... We will keep an eye on you, and we will return if you prove yourself to be a problem," The aspects said.

"I will be waiting; you should bring souvenirs next time," Aion said.

The aspects vanished, and then Aion sighed… that had been a long battle. Still, he didn't give up because the memories of his clone were always being transmitted to him. He had the chance to live a good life…

"Should I go back in time and take the place of my clone, or should I just absorb his memories and take his place now?" Aion wondered.

"Those have been some long years… I am going to take a long nap," Cailena said.

"As expected of a granny, the first thing you think after this is to sleep…" Aion said.

"Our existence is tied to yours again, and we lived our lives already; there is nothing we want to see," Malon said. "Just don't get carried away with your powers and think of conquering other worlds, or those guys won't target only you next time."

"I will keep that in mind," Aion said. "Well, it is time to rest and enjoy life while making babies like a rabbit."

In the end, Aion truly had twenty sons and daughters.

The End.
