Chapter 307 6 Months
The aide looked at Dante strangely but hid his expression so that he wouldn’t be seen as rude. However, Dante caught it. This made him raise his eyebrows with surprise and wonder what he said wrong, but the lad did not keep him in suspense.
“Well, the problem is that we don’t have the ability to investigate Zero Energy in the first place. We can’t harness it at all, and many universes with even higher levels of technology than us are stuck in this quagmire.”
Dante was startled. “Wait, Zero Energy is hard to use, even for higher universes?”
With a nod, the aide affirmed. This caused Dante to become pensive as he realized how brazen and crazy his idea to create a power system that allowed the use of Zero Energy was.
And what was even crazier was the fact that it actually succeeded!
If not for the limitations of power systems in the universe, Dante could fully actualize his crazy idea and turn this believed fact into a thing of the past.
This made Dante’s appreciation for the cosmic tree soar. Previously, he had felt a bit miffed by its unwillingness to actualize power systems on his behalf, but Dante realized he had become entitled.
It was inescapable for a sentient being, especially one as young as Dante, to not have this flaw. It was not possible for any person to constantly receive freebies with no cost for a long period of time and not feel entitled to the freebies later.
It was completely within the rights of the cosmic tree to pull up its roots and walk away, no longer sponsoring Dante, and he would have no right to complain. Dante could only sigh and correct his thinking before it was too late. He was grateful for the intervention and nodded towards the aide, pausing in thought before he left.
“Right, what’s your name?”
The lad stopped in surprise and pointed to himself. “Me? Sir, my name is Patrick. Everyone calls me Ricky.”
Dante nodded with amusement. “Alright, Ricky. You can go and manage our itinerary. I will spend most of my time in my cabin meditating during our travel.”
“Alright, sir, you can leave everything to me.” Ricky said with shining eyes, seeming invigorated by being taken seriously by Dante.
Meanwhile, Dante retreated to his cabin and dropped a quantum marker here. He then used a single thought to get his quantum clone to abandon its conquest in the Centralis Universe and consolidate his newly conquered territories, causing the military-industrial complex of his budding galactic empire to halt.
The quantum clone obviously left that task to the AIs of his empire as well as his organic think tanks. He himself used quantum entanglement to appear in his estate, right beside a now-waking Beatrice.
“Hmm..? Oh, it’s the clone? How nice of you, Dante, thank you so much.” Beatrice said groggily but smiled beautifully.
After all, she knew that with the issue of logistics and all, until Dante reached his location, he would be busy and unavailable for long periods of time. Truthfully, Beatrice was not looking forward to raising Antonia alone for most of her child’s life, but it seemed Dante had already considered this problem.
His clone was as good as his main body to Beatrice because it was two bodies, one mind. It was the same thing, only that the main body was stronger and could last longer in bed to satisfy her now.
Dante hugged Beatrice and caressed her messy hair, which was splayed about since she had been sleeping. The two of them shared this intimate moment until they noticed Antonia standing at the edge of her cot, leaning on the side idly as she watched them with a silly smile that only babies could manage.
This made the two laugh as they picked up the little one and brought her into their embrace. This small family was filled with a certain air of love and closeness that caused the heart to feel fuller and much softer.
Meanwhile, the ‘real’ Dante was seated cross-legged in his cabin, once again entering his soul space. The difference was that it had fundamentally changed from an empty void that only had a giant gate on one side to the same gate being the center of a lively cosmic-like playground.
There were the two giant manifestations of his other two EX-rank superpowers on either side, more than half as small as the main gate for Quantum Entanglement but still larger than the giant soul tether that floated in the void.
The soul tether looked like a giant band of corded rope that linked multiple platforms together. On each of these large platforms were Dante’s various summoned beasts, who were idly resting or growing their power.
After all, while there was no 11-star rank, like any quantum power system Dante had taken, it could be infinitely continued at its peak level. So even though they were 10-star peak, they could still gain more and more on top.
The same went for the summoned beasts, and the same went for Dante too. However, he did not pay any of this attention as he focused on the giant gate, or as usual, what was behind it.
Coming round to take a look, one would see that the formerly messy and tangled cords were now around 50% cleared up, making it much neater here. Dante couldn’t help but take a moment to admire his work and pat himself on the back.
However, he looked at the rest of the work that needed to be done and could not help but feel a hint of fatigue. How far away was Ex-Rank Quantum Entanglement?
Probably years away, even if he dedicated all his time to it.
Still, small drops of water make a mighty ocean.
As such, he could only knuckle down and get to work.
They say time flies when you’re having fun, but is it really considered fun to spend every waking moment working on a bunch of messed-up and jumbled wires? No, that definitely could not be called fun.
Dante spent every day during this period feeling every second that passed by like it was an hour, something which would have driven him crazy for sure if not for the counterbalance which were the experiences of his quantum clone with his family.
Around 6 months had passed, and Antonia was growing bigger each day, her intelligence also soaring rather rapidly. She could already fully walk on her own, had a head of short purple hair like her mother, and her teeth had grown out, allowing her to consume normal food.
She had already been weaned in her second month of growth, and she was already fully potty-trained by the 4th month. She was able to speak short sentences and phrases, communicating often with her dad and mom.
All of these experiences made Dante and Beatrice full of joy and excitement. Every day was a new experience with the budding Antonia who shocked them with each step, her abilities surpassing even designer babies crafted by technology.
At the tender age of 6 months, her SDI was already three times that of a fully grown adult, which was around the level of a well-trained pure human. She also occasionally had explosions of power when stressed or excited, either manifesting hellfire or radiant light, her purple eyes sometimes shifting to golden as the eyes of illusion struggled to manifest.
Luckily, with both Dante and Beatrice around, nothing bad happened. The only problem, if anything, was that Antonia was extremely gluttonous and voracious, having inherited some aspects of Portia and Beatrice’s superpowers, but as quantum abilities rather than superpowers.
Dante’s quantum clone spent a lot of time hunting top beasts and monsters in various quantum worlds and then replicating them in reality for him and Beatrice to cook for Antonia. Dante knew how to cook thanks to the perfectionist Aileen, who would not allow her son to be lacking any life skill, and Beatrice had practiced for the day she would meet her fated one. .𝒎
Neither were adept in the art, only having basic skills which they hardly even used, so there was a lot of trial and error involved. Luckily for them, Antonia was a big eater who chugged down kilograms of food in a sitting to fuel her explosive growth, so it didn’t matter in the long run.
However, it was far better to see her happy and laughing while eating than squeezing her face and grimacing, reluctantly eating due to her hunger.
In the end, 6 months had passed, and many breakthroughs had been made all around. Portia, who had easily reached her frontline already due to her explosive speed, had conquered even more territories even more crazily now.
She knew that since Antonia was born now, the pressure on the Universe’s Will of the Eternal Universe would grow even stronger, so she had to secure enough territories to make up for their consumption.
