First Legendary Dragon: Starting With The Limitless System novel Chapter 132

Chapter 132: Finishing Up

However, instead of retreating, he steadied his mind and dove deeper, allowing the flames to wrap around him fully, embracing the fiery torrent rather than resisting it.

A vivid image began forming deep within his soul. It took shape instinctively—lines of fire twisting together into an intricate pattern, glowing with primal essence.

This was the Origin Glyph—pure, unfiltered by conscious thought, born solely from his soul’s nature and his unique resonance with fire.

Back in the physical realm, Eldric and Selene watched silently, their expressions calm but intensely focused.

The chamber was quiet, save for the gentle hum of mana reverberating from the inscriptions on the walls. Suddenly, Eldric’s brows furrowed slightly as he noticed subtle fluctuations in Orion’s aura.

He exchanged a quick glance with Selene, whose usually composed expression revealed subtle hints of concern. She took a step forward, her voice low and cautious. "His mana is fluctuating sharply. Something might be wrong."

Eldric raised a hand slowly, preventing her from intervening immediately. "Wait... Give him time. Let’s observe first. He might stabilize."

Meanwhile, Orion was experiencing a tempest of pure elemental fury. The Origin Glyph, blazing brilliantly in his mind’s eye, twisted and contorted like molten lava, refusing to settle.

Every attempt he made to calm it seemed to fuel its wild movements further, its shape continually shifting—unstable and unpredictable.

’Calm down,’ he thought, willing his nerves to settle. ’It’s part of me. I can control it.’

But the glyph only flared brighter, searing with untamed heat. He realized he was attempting to force control over something inherently wild, primal, and instinctual. His approach needed to change.

’Alright,’ Orion thought resolutely. ’Let’s try something else.’

Instead of suppressing the blazing glyph, he opened himself fully to it, letting it free rather than asserting his dominance over it.

Instantly, a wave of raw emotion surged forward—passion, anger, determination, excitement—mingling freely.

He allowed the emotions to flow through him, embracing them rather than resisting, becoming one with the fire rather than its master.

Almost immediately, the Origin Glyph responded, stabilizing rapidly into a majestic symbol: a swirling flame radiating brilliant golden-red hues, intricately etched yet boldly simple in nature. The glyph hovered calmly now, its fire blazing with supreme intent instead of chaos.

Eldric’s shoulders visibly relaxed as he nodded slightly to Selene, a small smile curving his lips. "See? He found his balance."

Selene released the breath she had been unconsciously holding, her posture easing. "Indeed. The boy truly has exceptional instincts."

With the Origin Glyph stabilized, Orion shifted his focus outward, beginning the careful construction of the Structural Layer.

Recalling each Primary Rune vividly, he started placing them meticulously around the fiery core: Fire, Flow, Stabilize, Amplify, Ignite, Focus, Contain, Reinforce, and Channel.

Each rune settled into position smoothly, resonating harmoniously with the Origin Glyph at the center.

However, as Orion began connecting the Mana Circuits, he encountered another obstacle. His mana surged unexpectedly due to him being in his SoC and forgetting to take into account that all of his mana was gathered here—its sheer potency nearly overwhelming the delicate circuitry, threatening to shatter the carefully constructed array.

Sweat formed on Orion’s forehead in the physical realm, his body tense from the strain. Eldric’s expression grew solemn again, quietly whispering, "Careful now, lad. Control your mana carefully."

Selene clenched her fists softly at her sides, readying herself to intervene at a moment’s notice.

Inside his Sea of Consciousness, Orion gritted his mental teeth, focusing intently. ’Steady. Just slow it down. Don’t force it through.’

He visualized his mana as a gentle water stream flowing through his body as he gently guided it through the circuits.

Bit by bit, his control tightened, the circuits stabilizing under his careful manipulation. Soon, the fluctuations calmed, the chaotic pressure subsided, and without missing a beat, he began carving Runic Inscriptions all over the Structural Layer.

BOOM!
