Darius Supreme-Chapter 506

Darius nodded in agreement, this Event was quite balanced. It seemed to gauge the objective difficulty of a task and the subjective difficulty as well.

To simplify, the Objective Difficulty of something would be the amount of effort required by an average person who met the lowest possible criteria to fulfill the objective.

In the case of this event, it would be any Journeyman with at least 1% talent in magic. As such, the objective reward would be extremely great to the point where it could have yielded hundreds of thousands of AP and SP.

However, this was balanced by the Subjective Difficulty. This was basically the amount of effort it would take for Darius specifically to complete the task. This took into account all of his methods, this thought process, his talent, etc.

As had been shown earlier, for Darius, finding a new element was not a risk. It was a matter of time. As such, his subjective reward would be extremely low, maybe 3 or 5 AP and 3 SP at best.

So the Objective Difficulty and Subjective Difficulty were contrasted, giving the final value in terms of reward. So no matter how one felt about it, the rewards for any Event would be fair and logical.

Darius then resumed his work. With his current Endurance, he could go for approximately two weeks at most without needing to move, but he didn't see the need to.

Every other day, he would take a 1-hour break to eat, excrete and stretch his limbs. Darius made good progress like this, reaching 50% completion in a matter of 14 days.

By this point, the path had been narrowed to the point that he was able to achieve a daily 5% worth of progress, so he reached 100% completion in a matter of 10 days.

In total, Darius had spent 24 days on discovering this new element, less than a month. When he finally succeeded in guessing the path, he spent the next 6 days meditating silently.

On the 30th day, he slowly traced the path from beginning to end, wondering what element this was. Until he traced the path fully, he would not know, but what he did know was that it was related to the Spirit Element.

After all, he had come upon this path while creating a Spirit Element spell, so it was near the Spirit elements wheel. Either an opposing element or a sub-element or a sister element.

When Darius finally traced the path, he felt a blaze of golden light rush through the circuit way. You could imagine the magical circuit like an intricate maze, or like the traces of a modern motherboard.

When Darius highlighted the traces, he used a blue color, which was the color of mana. In fact, everyone did. However, the blue color was slowly overtaken by a golden one that replaced it and shone resplendently within his system.

Darius' eyes opened wide as golden light shone out of them, his head rising to face the sky as the golden light passed through the roof of the Portable Housing and truck the sky.

Immediately, the entire Faust trembled as if with delight. All denizens of Faust, whether Awakened, Sparked, or normal, stopped what they were doing as they closed their eyes.

The golden light from Darius' eyes spread like a shower when it reached the sky, crossing over Faust easily as if distance was a joke to it. It then broke down and entered the bodies of every single denizen of Faust, regardless of sapient or not.

They all glowed golden for a second as the planet continually trembled in joy. It was excited that another one of the elements was discovered, for such a thing brought its color to completion.

It had been so long since the most recent Order and Chaos had been discovered, so this was a much welcome event. It connected with Darius' mind despite him being hidden in the Divine oasis.

It then expressed its joy and praise to Darius, asking him if he wanted the world to know that he was the one who had discovered the element. Darius frowned and asked if only his name would be reported or if there would be more?

The Spirit of Faust explained that a mental image of his identity would be shown to everyone, so that nobody would ever forget that it was Darius Stone, Dragon Ancestor Fledgling, Lord of Safemoon, Culler of Insects, etc. who had accomplished this deed.

Darius refused immediately.

He might have accepted this 'honor' if he had been at the Master stage, but having such a thing outed would ruin his entire plans for his Adept stage.

The Spirit of Faust seemed disappointed, but understood.

Interestingly, it also seemed to know that the reincarnator was an Agent of Vena, but had automatically refrained from adding that title to the list. It seemed that it had enough prudence to know what objectively should be added and what should not.

When the golden light subsided from the bodies of all denizens, they realized that they could visualize a new element in their minds. Everyone was able to do so for a short while, then it was cut off.

Now, youths who were Awakening naturally could unlock this new element as their first, or they could try to unlock it when they climbed a stage and got to choose one new element to add.

Those who were about to Spark could now acquire unique abilities related to this element. What's more, Dungeons bearing this element would also spawn on Fallon, and the counterparts of dungeons would similarly do so on the other continents.

The world began to celebrate the birth of the new element, as they had been provided basic information about it then it was unlocked. Many eyes gleamed, as this new element could be said to have a utility to great it could change the entire landscape of Faust!

Many of the True Lords and other powerhouses across the continent began to inquire upon the discoverer, no one would have the same level of control and understanding as he did in the element, and this element was too good for them to sit idle in their seats.
