Lelith's fate had undergone a major shift, and its impact on the Warhammer universe was clearly greater than that of Saint Celestine.

On Kei's body, after altering Celestine's fate, the power of destiny that had turned crimson was now absorbing the dissipated destiny force from Lelith, gradually transforming into golden fortune energy.

He felt that exhilarating sensation of being in harmony with the universe during moments of fate. His gaze turned to the system reward he had just received, "a chance to randomly upgrade a red-tier trait."

Currently, he had three red-tier traits:

[Destiny Chronometer]

[Divine Entertainment Competition]

[Supernova Devourer], which had just been upgraded earlier.

At this stage, the effect of [Divine Entertainment Competition] was already more than sufficient. Even enemies whose power exceeded his by tenfold would be forcibly dragged into a space for one-on-one combat, regardless of how many foes there were, only one would remain in the end.

That left [Destiny Chronometer] and [Supernova Devourer].

Kei actually preferred to upgrade the former.

This trait had already allowed him to foresee personal disasters to some extent, and since it was fate-based, further upgrades would certainly involve deeper levels of destiny manipulation.

Right now, his main method of gaining system rewards, was through directly altering others' fates to indirectly influence worldlines. A high-level fate-based trait was likely to yield substantial benefits.

As for [Supernova Devourer], its power was naturally immense, but across the entire universe and myriad worlds, there were just too many stars! Upgrading this trait would be exceedingly difficult.

Guess I'll have to leave it to chance...

He contemplated for a while. Feeling that forcibly interfering would be too costly, he simply gave a command to the system from his heart:

System, use the upgrade for [Destiny Chronometer].

[Destiny Chronometer (Red) into Fate Prophet (Gold)]

[Destiny Chronometer (Red):

Observe the life and fate paths of humans, spirits, and monsters; see karma, merit, disasters, blessings, lifespan, and fortune. Has a chance to foresee one's own disasters or blessings in advance. Can expend energy to look 500 years into the future or the past and know the fate of all living beings. Can actively interfere with and change others' destinies, and absorb large amounts of free fate energy when others' destinies undergo drastic changes, boosting one's own fortune. Fortune energy can be converted into virtue, granting divine protection and warding off evil.]

---

A mysterious and profound trajectory appeared in Kei's mind. Following this enigmatic pattern, he immediately began to observe what would happen to him in the next five hundred years, but all he saw was chaos.

With a few guesses in his heart, he turned to look at Lelith, who was beside him diligently giving him a massage. As a large amount of primordial energy was consumed, the vision before him began to shift, and future scenes started appearing intermittently.

The first scene was Drazhar, and other Drukhari warriors resurrected on an asteroid in the outer rim, living a relatively peaceful existence.

Next, a vast number of Hrud and Kroot vessels entered the Sol System.

Terra, the Holy Terra of the Warhammer universe, was instantly engulfed in endless war. Perhaps because they failed to achieve their intended results, on the third day after arrival, under Cegorach's orders, these ships launched reality-rending weapons at Terra, Warp Storm!

Even though Lelith blocked most of the damage from the void with her Torture-class Raider, some energy still struck Terra.

The vision cut off abruptly, and Kei quickly realized it must have been him, the observable variable, who had resolved that threat.

Further ahead, Lelith went aboard the Grand Bastion in an attempt to seduce Inquisitor Greyfax.

But Greyfax rejected her outright.

Ironically, the other soldiers and high-ranking officers on the Grand Bastion greatly respected her for fending off the Hrud and Kroot fleet's attacks. Captain Sicarius and others even called her "Lady of War" without hesitation.

Further ahead, Lelith shamelessly followed Greyfax into the Steel Legion's communal ablution chambers, clearly intending to bathe with the female personnel...

Kei quietly skipped over that part.

Just two days after skipping ahead, a group of pale, elegant figures appeared above the Grand Bastion.

They launched an attack on it, leading them were none other than Vect and Drazhar.

Lelith, on board the Grand Bastion, was caught off guard and confronted the strongest of them, Vect.

She was then beaten severely by this Supreme Overlord of Commorragh, who had been enhanced with ancient soul-forge technology, nearly losing her life. The vision once again came to an abrupt halt.

Alright then, I guess I stepped in again… Kei exited the state of observing Lelith's future.

Feeling the consumption of nearly 0.1 units of planetary energy within his body, his face twitched slightly.

That was just for observing half a month into the future. If he really wanted to see five hundred years ahead, at the current rate of consumption, it was estimated to cost at least 1,200 units of planetary energy, or 12 units of stellar energy.

Who the hell could afford that? But then again, would he really have nothing better to do than peek 500 years into the future?

This upgraded ability is... kinda overpowered…

He once again reviewed the detailed description of the trait.

Unlike like Labyrinthian Circuit, which deduce and calculate probabilities. [Fate Prophet] just dropped a nuclear bomb on the concept.

Unless interfered with by someone like him, a system-influenced, observable variable, the future he saw was guaranteed to happen.

If [Primordial Realm Lord] evolved without surprises, it was clearly heading toward omnipotence.

Meanwhile, [Fate Prophet] was clearly developing toward omniscience.

Put the two together: Omniscience + Omnipotence?

"Hey, you freak, are you undressing me with your eyes now? My skin's crawling!"

Lelith's face twisted in discomfort as she brushed down her arm, where goosebumps had literally formed. She decisively moved to sit on the other side. Being stared at like that by some dimensional entity she had once fought, and without even blinking?

Anyone would be creeped out.

"Aren't you Drukhari all about hedonistic excess? You're not afraid of doing it ten thousand times, but you're afraid of this?"

Kei withdrew from his thoughts, no longer looking at Lelith, and instead closed his eyes and returned to the system interface.

"...Didn't you literally just promise not to have any designs on me?!"

"I didn't! I didn't! I was just asking, that's all. Maybe don't wear that old outfit anymore. It's ugly."

"You piece of—tch."

Lelith forcibly swallowed the curse word that was right at the tip of her tongue.

Damn it!

She had lived wild and free for millennia! Now suddenly relying on someone else, she couldn't even curse freely—and even her clothing choices were restricted?!

Damn it all!

System, use the Trait Extractions.

Kei ignored Lelith's internal complaints. She'd get used to it in time, following him around. Besides, he wasn't the type to treat his followers poorly. Hadn't he even stepped in to help when Vect was beating people in the future?

[Obtained:

- Criminal Law Technique Mastery (Green)

- Radiation Resistance (Green)]

[Criminal Law Technique Mastery (Green):

"Hit hard and don't stop; eat snacks until you drop." Born into a family of martial artists, you've mastered traditional combat. With a deep understanding of modern criminal law, you know the consequences of every move. Major improvement to traditional martial arts techniques such as Baji, Wing Chun, Tai Chi, and Tan Tui. Minor boosts to combat skill, kill experience, and power control.

(Note: You must recite a criminal-law-themed technique chant with each strike.)]

[Radiation Resistance (Green):

From a family exposed to radiation for four generations, your genes have mutated slightly. Slight increases in physical toughness, strength, speed, and radiation resistance. As you age, these boosts increase further. However, your lifespan is significantly reduced.]

---

Two greens. System, are you trying to tell me something here? He grumbled to himself.

[Criminal Law Technique Mastery] might be decent for ordinary people. Those martial arts were too overrated, especially Tai Chi. Don't forget, a Tai Chi grandmaster got rekt by a pretty standard MMA fighter.

And seriously, what's up with that final note about having to recite a chant with every attack?

As for [Radiation Resistance], now that was interesting.

Aside from the major drawback of a reduced lifespan, the scaling strength gain with age still gave it solid potential, though this was heavily offset by the lifespan penalty.

Even so, this trait still made it into the green-tier!

Looking at the upgrade chances on his panel, one green-tier and one blue-tier, he decided to try upgrading this trait.
