Reincarnated as an Energy with a System-Chapter 1075: Answers

The system linked Ning and his clone, which was truly just the ring he was wearing. Once they were linked, Ning took the ring and changed his body back to his original one.

Suddenly, he felt a strength that was unusually strong and understood that his body had grown quite a lot in the past hundred thousand years.

Emma looked worriedly when she saw what had happened. "What happened to papa?" she asked.

"Nothing," Ely said. "Look, papa's back."

Ning smiled lightly as he remembered everything he had done, every feeling he had felt, every memory he had made.

Every single experience was his, and to him, he was the one that had done it all.

"We will leave you alone for now, master," Night said and walked out of the house. Blue, Sorlus, Saphandra, and the rest left as well.

Ning nodded as they left and turned back towards his wife and daughter. "You love papa, don't you?" he asked as he took Emma from Ely and held her in his embrace. "Give papa a kiss."

He gave his left cheek forward and Emma giggled slightly before kissing him on his cheeks.

"Aww, my daughter is so cute," Ning said as he kissed his daughter as well. "Mwah!"

He played with her for a while, and Ely watched with a wide smile on her face. She had never felt this happy and relieved in her entire life at all.

"Alright, that's enough you two," she said as she pulled Emma away and held her. "It's time I get some answers from you too."

"Answers? What sort of answers?" Ning asked.

"Well, first of all. What happened to you? How did you survive and that sort," Ely said.

"Oh, uhh… let me get the correct accounting from my system," Ning said.

Ely nodded and waited until he got all the information.

"So, Bayrus captured me and took me to the adjacent universe at the time through one of the wormholes. He came back here and went into a space of his own where he destroyed my body until only the energy part of me remained and started trying to break through the barrier of the system to learn more about how it was created."

"Before he could learn anything, however, he had to enable the system so he had an easier time. He could learn something while it was disabled, but it would be highly limited. So, he spent most of his energy trying to learn about it."

"He spent over 40 Million years trying to do that very thing," Ning said. "In here, you've only spent close to 150 thousand years, but outside, it has been over 42 million years."

Ely gasped when she learned that information. "No way!" she said.

Ning sighed. "It's true," he said.

Ely couldn't even begin to comprehend how much time that was. Before her thoughts could go anywhere, Ning continued.

"That entire time, my system was sending out a beacon to call for help. After 40 Million years of being captured, someone appeared and saved me," Ning said. "Her name was Nigel, and she is another host of the Energy System, just like me."

"Nigel?" Ely asked.

"Yeah, she just left like 10 minutes ago when I was outside. I had only just met her, but it seemed she wanted to leave, so I let her go," Ning said.

"She saved you?" Ely asked.

"Yes," Ning said. "She saved me and kept me in her world until I woke up. That was maybe just a few days ago for me. After that, I came here straight away."

"I see," Ely said. She took the information and slowly consumed it until she learned it all. "42 Million years… everyone you and I knew must have been dead by now then."

"I don't know," Ning said. "I would rather not find out."

Ely understood the sentiment. "Alright, continue," she said.

Ning gave a weird look. "Continue? Continue what?" he asked.

"Answers," Ely said. "You know, the questions we have had for so many years. You now have your system back, so we can find the answers."

"Huh? Oh, right," Ning said as he realized what she was talking about.

There were 3 mysteries in precise that they wanted answers about.

First, they wanted to know what the lights were in the sky that would appear from time to time.

Second, they wanted to know why there were two different Origins on the same small planet, each with a different type of energy coming out of it.

And finally, they wanted to know why their daughter was born so strong.

Ning asked his system, and one by one he got the answers to his question.

"Those energies were Bayrus trying to break into my system," Ning said. "He used so much energy back then that they would periodically slip through into this world. That wasn't anything dangerous at all."

Ely nodded. They had expected Bayrus to be behind it after all.

"And the Origins?" she asked.

"The Origins are a little unique," Ning said. "Apparently, two Origins at the same time is a very rare case in any universe. A planet would have to have a very high amount of energy, far beyond its threshold for an Origin."

"In some cases, when there were too many energies, a planet would end up creating two Origins to compensate for the amount of energy the planet required, instead of just one," Ning said.

Ely was slightly confused.

"Well, think of it this way. If you go to a high-class restaurant, you end up paying a lot more, regardless of the food," Ning said. "It's the same thing. The planet had that much more energy due to the dungeons that were created and the energy from Bayrus."

"So, when the Origin did form, it formed so that it could keep up with the amount of energy that was already on the planet," Ning said. "As for the reason why there are two different types of energy, that's simply a matter of luck."

"Earth got lucky and happened to form two unique Origins."
