First Legendary Dragon: Starting With The Limitless System novel Chapter 29

Chapter 29: Decision

[Analyzing Host Anomaly... Recalibrating System Framework...]

[New Module Initialization Complete.]

[Host must now choose a Core Intelligence Type for the updated System.]

Choice Required:

-[Sentient Core] — An adaptive, self-aware system with personality and evolving intelligence.

-[Non-Sentient Core] — A purely mechanical system with no thoughts or emotions; functions with cold precision. Will only be updated during the Evolution of System.

[Decision must be made within 5 seconds.]

Orion’s vision blurred, consciousness on the verge of going out. The pain, the pressure—that he had endured made him reach his limit. The glowing system screen in front of him blurred and flickered.

’Sentient...?’ he barely thought, the word forming more in instinct than clarity.

[Ding!]

[Choice Registered.]

[Sentient Core Selected.]

[Reconstructing System Architecture... Initializing Personality Matrix... Please wait...]

[Ding!]

[Estimated Time Until Completion: 5 hours 59 minutes.]

Orion didn’t hear that his choice had been registered, nor did he see the timer. Before he could do anything else, his body began falling backward—unconscious.

Selene’s body quickly moved, reaching his position within a second as she gently held him, watching him fall unconscious.

Eldric quickly crouched down and felt his pulse. He heaved a sigh after checking on him, "Phew, he is alright. Just unconscious due to extreme strain, both mentally and physically."

Selene heaved a sigh of relief, but her eyes remained filled with worry, looking at the unconscious Orion. "But his awakening... if someone were to learn of it, I fear he won’t have a day of peace in his life again."

Eldric solemnly nodded his head, "What kind of monster even is he? I don’t think there is such a genius even in the Empires or the Hidden Holy Lands. Where did he even come from?"

"Looks like that Old Daoist wasn’t blabbering nonsense. He might know even more about him." Selene thought back to her encounter with that old Daoist.

Eldric shook his head, "We can’t be sure of what he is planning. He is one of the strongest humans we know of. If he has some plans, then we can’t interfere in it no matter how great our ability is."

Selene heaved a sigh, "It doesn’t matter. What will come will come eventually. For now, we should take care of Orion. We can’t be sure of his future, but we should protect him in his present."

Eldric’s gaze turned tender, looking at Orion. He softly nodded his head, "Yes, he has really suffered this time. I wonder how many barriers he broke, though."

"Anyway, let’s get him to his room and let him rest." Selene said before picking him up. Eldric helped her up as they left the hall.

Outside, Rina and Fiora stood waiting. Due to the spells of the hall, they couldn’t hear or feel what was happening inside. They only knew Orion was undergoing a forced awakening.

So all they could do, standing outside, was to wait in worry. They had heard about how dangerous it was to undergo forced awakening.

The gate finally opened as they quickly looked towards the unconscious Orion. Their faces lost all color as they hurriedly went forward.

Edgar and Helena looked at each other speechlessly before nodding their heads. _{freewёbnoνel.com}
