Chapter 611: Fusion
Translator: Translation Nation Editor: Translation Nation
Marvin's idea was very simple: The authority of Fate Power was extremely high, even beyond that of Divine Power.
At least in Feinan, Fate Power ruled over everything.
If he could keep this power forever, it would definitely increase his strength substantially.
And if he wanted to keep this power, he needed a powerful "receptacle" to contain it.
Under Jessica's guidance, he had gotten a good understanding of Fate Power.
Fate Power could remain steadily within Fate Sorceresses' bodies because they had a Fate Power Imprint.
While Fate Power could be spent very quickly, the Fate Power Imprint could also quickly replenish that power.
But the rate of recovery had a certain limit.
When Fate Sorceresses faced a powerful enemy and overdrafted their power, it would be quite likely for the Fate Power Imprint to overwork itself, thus leading to a loss of power.
And now, Marvin also had a small Fate Power Imprint in his body.
The Fate Power Imprint was the key to controlling Fate Power. That imprint had originally been part of Lorie's and had come along with the Fate Power that she sent to Marvin.
As long as he could maintain the imprint and somehow prevent it from dissipating over time, then the power would also remain in his body.
Marvin had thought about it for a while, until coming to the conclusion that there was already something in his body that might be suitable to contain the Fate Power Imprint and the Fate Power.
And that was the advanced False Divine Vessel!
...
In theory, the advanced False Divine Vessel itself had properties as a "receptacle".
It could store Divinities and Divine Power and contained quite a few fragments of Plane Laws and Universe Laws.
For example, when Marvin needed to activate his Domains, he needed to use Divine Power from the False Divine Vessel.
But because he was forcefully using his Domains through the advanced False Divine Vessel, it was very difficult to obtain a steady flow of Divine Power.
Although among his three Domains, he could get a certain amount of Divine Power every day thanks to having swallowed the Wilderness God's avatar, but with how much power he needed for his Domains and related abilities, it was like a drop in the bucket, so Marvin always viewed the false Divine Vessel as his last trump card.
But he now had a chance to resolve this deficiency.
'The only problem is whether there will be any rejection between Fate Power and Divine Power. Also, is it possible for the Fate Power Imprint to be embedded in the advanced False Divine Vessel in the first place?'
Marvin was a bit worried, but also eager to give it a try.
This might be the first time something like this ever happened!
It would allow him to simultaneously hold the power of Fate Sorceress, which represented the Plane's crowning gift, and the power of the False Divine Vessel, which was the supreme fruit of wisdom of mankind's ancient powerhouses.
If he forcibly mixed these two together, would there be a negative side effect?
Marvin didn't know.
No one had ever done this before him, and probably no one had ever had the opportunity to do so. After all, Fate Sorceresses were few and far between in all of Feinan's history, and the holders of advanced False Divine Vessels were also very rare.
Thus, Marvin's situation had no precedent.
But after considering it all carefully, he decided to give it a try.
When the Fairy gave Marvin the advanced Divine Vessel, he had clearly been told that the advanced Divine Vessel could hold the forces that followed the Plane Laws.
Fate Power itself was the Plane Law's supreme power so it should still fall within that category.
Marvin was unable to resist the temptation of what would result if he was successful!
'Well, might as well try... '
'Looking at the Fate Power slowly dwindling every day is very distressing. '
Marvin forced a smile and decided to go all-out.
The worst that could happen would be wasting the Fate Power Imprint, scattering his Fate Power prematurely.
...
This had always been Marvin's style, anyways.
In the following days, while Raven tried to maintain control over the Ruby Stronghold and fight to consolidate her seat as a secondary member of the Underdark United Council, no one would disturb Marvin.
He hid inside his room, trying to transfer his Fate Power Imprint to the advanced False Divine Vessel.
It looked simple, but it was actually very challenging.
Ever since the advanced False Divine Vessel entered Marvin's body, it had always been in his heart.
And the Fate Power Imprint had entered Marvin's mind.
The two were quite far from each other.
But spending about six hours, Marvin successfully dislodged the imprint from where it rested.
That golden symbol symbolizing wisdom slowly descended, before finally resting stably above the light blue Divine Vessel.
The Divine Vessel, which had already turned into a sphere, was firmly keeping the imprint out.
Marvin was drenched in sweat.
He worked hard for a long time before realizing with a jolt of shock that he was unable to control those two different forces in his body at the same time!
Whether he was trying to rouse the advanced Divine Vessel or control his Fate Power, it was something that needed a lot of concentration. Marvin was able to maintain his very sharp focus, but the problem was that he could only focus on one at a time!
He tried many times in different ways. He only needed to get the Imprint inside the False Divine Vessel, but the outcome was very unsatisfactory.
The advanced False Divine Vessel was firmly resisting him.
It seemed that the vessel was very afraid of that external power.
With all his efforts stymied by the incompatibility, Marvin could only use his last idea.
'If the problem is that I can't control both at the same time, then I can try to keep one of them passively activated on its own... '
'I can let the advanced False Divine Vessel remain active by keeping my Domains up, but if this attempt doesn't work... I'll waste quite a bit of Divine Power... '
Marvin considered for a while before casting aside his doubts.
Press on!
All Domains activated!
Divine Power poured out crazily as his three powerful Domains covered the entire room.
Slaughter! Shadow! Plant Metamorphosis!
A dense Domain aura even covered the outside of Marvin's residence and scared away a few passers-by on the street.
Thankfully, Jessica promptly noticed the strange situation and ordered Raven's subordinates to cordon off the area and not let anyone come near. Meanwhile, she stood in front of Marvin's door, an incredulous look on her face.
She clearly felt a large amount of Fate Power bursting out!
'What is Marvin up to?'
...
After about half an hour, the aura that was continuously bursting out from the room finally calmed down.
All the guards glanced at Marvin's residence with respect.
They had heard from their leader that a very terrifying person was living there, but they hadn't known quite how terrifying.
But just now, they couldn't help wanting to kneel down from feeling the aura of Marvin's three Domains!
This immense power was something that many might not ever witness in their lifetimes.
As for Jessica, she had been muttering irresolutely under her breath for quite a while, but after making sure that there was nothing else up with Marvin, she slowly left.
Inside his room, Marvin closed his eyes, feeling the changes.
He had succeeded.
His Divine Power hadn't gone to waste!
Right now, within the light blue sphere, a golden imprint was sparkling.
But he wasn't celebrating because of the fusion, but because of something utterly shocking that had just happened.
When Marvin activated his Domains and tried to forcibly place the Fate Power Imprint inside the advanced False Divine Vessel, he suddenly heard a voice:
"Eh?"
It was only a sound of surprise.
But Marvin couldn't even describe the experiences and the amount of information contained within that sound.
It felt like the one who had uttered the sound was an elder that had gone through many experiences, while somehow also being a newborn kid!
At first, Marvin didn't understand where the sound had come from.
But then, his mind was filled with a lot more information.
He figured out what that voice was!
He then heard a second sound.
"En!" 1
The first sound expressed doubt, while the second was an affirmation.
A moment later, the advanced False Divine Vessel and the Fate Power Imprint fused perfectly. Divine Power and Fate Power interweaved, transforming each other!
All the Fate Power was contained in the Divine Vessel and wouldn't flow out on its own anymore!
Marvin's test was a success!
He had become half a [Fate Sorcerer]!
What made him even happier about all this was that he had managed to link up to the [Plane Will]!
The information flowing into his mind explained everything.
Only those who were acknowledged by the Plane Will could become Fate Sorceresses.
Like the Three Sisters, and those other Legends of old.
And Marvin now was an exception who had managed to join their ranks.
He didn't know why, but the Plane Will actually didn't reject him. In fact, he could faintly feel that Feinan's Plane Will had helped him a bit.
Otherwise, he would still be trying to fuse Fate Power and Divine Power.
But after that "En!", all the problems had been easily resolved!
The Domains automatically shut down, and the advanced False Divine Vessel successfully accepted the Fate Power Imprint!
From now on, the Fate Power in his body would just keep on growing!
Despite not being able to obtain a type of Fate Power like a genuine Fate Sorceress, and not being able to learn their powerful skills, he was still half a Fate Sorcerer!
What made him so excited was that his Fate Power could also be converted into Divine Power, and the conversion rate was quite high.
Now, he could activate his three Domains as long as he wanted!
...
Upon opening his eyes, Marvin suddenly felt that the world seemed a lot clearer.
It wasn't an increase in his Perception stat, and it wasn't an attribute increase... It was the feeling of understanding everything.
He could now see through the essence of a lot of things with just a glance.
He knew that this due to the Fate Power Imprint fusing perfectly with his body.
Lorie's Wisdom had become his Wisdom!
'So Hathaway was right, saying that I stole away the acknowledgement of the Plane Will from her by kill-stealing Dark Phoenix?'
Marvin faintly guessed that this was the case. He couldn't think of why else the Plane Will would have helped with the last part of the fusion.
Just now, a new line appeared in his character sheet!
This [Child of the Plane] 2!
