After Jake and his family returned home, Jake went back to his room while his parents started preparing a delicious meal.

    "What ingredients should I get?" Reynold asked Sera as he got ready to hunt for the meal.

    Sera thought for a moment before responding, "We''ll need some high-quality dragon meat for the main course, and perhaps some fire herbs and frost berries to add flavor. Don''t forget to gather a few Divinity cores; they''ll be essential for enhancing the meal''s properties."

    Reynold nodded in agreement, preparing his hunting gear. "I''ll head to the dragon realm and look for the Divinity core monsters. It might take some time, but it''ll be worth it for a meal that boosts Jake''s strength and purifies his body to some extent."

    As Reynold set off on his journey to the dragon realm, Sera started organizing the kitchen and collecting the necessary herbs and berries. She also decided to prepare a special sauce using rare ingredients from the mystical Elven forest to complement the dragon meat.

    While his parents were working on the meal, Jake, in his room, was communicating with Nexus.

    "I awakened two cores, is it possible, or is it another cube thingy?" Jake asked Nexus, having awakened two cores, one in the center of his sternum and one near his heart

    [No, it''s not a cube thingy. The core near your heart is due to your mother''s lineage of witches. Witches have their special core called the Heart core, and the center core is the Origin core. It was a normal Mana core, but the Cube modified it. It''s also the reason the elder in charge of awakening didn''t sense any anomaly in you,] Nexus explained.

    "So I was supposed to awaken a Mana core and a Heart Core?" Jake asked for confirmation.

    [Yes,] Nexus affirmed.

    "Hmm, what exactly is this Origin Core?" Jake nodded and inquired further.

    [To understand the Origin Core, you must first comprehend the nature of a Core,] Nexus replied.

    "Isn''t a Core a vessel where we store atmospheric energies and then utilize the stored energies to power our constructs?" Jake offered his understanding based on what he had learned from the library.

    [That is a simplified perspective. More accurately, a Core functions as a Purifier. It purifies atmospheric energy and stores it within. The being to whom the core belongs then utilizes the stored energy. The Mana core, for instance, purifies and stores Mana, and the same principle applies to other cores. However, the Origin Core is distinct; it has no limits.

    It can absorb and purify any energy from this world,] explained Nexus.

    "So, with this Origin Core, I can use any energy I want, right?" Jake nodded, seeking clarification as this was groundbreaking news.

    [Yes, but there''s a crucial caveat. The core has been modified to operate at the level of this world. Attempting to absorb energy from sources beyond this world may lead to unpredictable consequences. Exercise caution and only utilize it to absorb energies native to our world,] Nexus warned.

    [Also, the system is complete now. The last ingredient was your awakening, and now after your awakening, it''s complete. So go on, try it,] Nexus urged.

    "Finally, it''s ready, the ''System,''" Jake exclaimed with excitement as he eagerly tried it right away

    Nexus responded, [Welcome, Host, to Cosmic System.]

    "You change the name?" Jake asked as the name is changed from Akashic to Cosmic

    [yes, Akashic is just one of your Authority, it will be weird to call it that way]

    "Three Quests , good" Jake

    [Main Quest is selected by Cube, rest is by me]

    "Hmm, No wonder Main Quest reward is great compared to others and Extra Quest reward is E grade Dungeon key" Jake mumbled.

    In Celestria after the invasion, Gates begin to get created in many parts of the world, these gates are an access to different dimensions and they still persists even after the invasion has ended, but....

    "What are Gates exactly?" Jake asked as none of the liberary books tells him the true cause of gates appearance.

    [They are basically fragmented worlds, remnants of realms destroyed by an ??? invasion,] Nexus explained.

    [The will or sometimes a Supreme entity of those destroyed worlds attempts to connect with surviving worlds through these gates. The fragments, in turn, try to merge with the surviving worlds, aspiring to become a part of them and aid it''s inhabitants against the ??? invasion. On the other hand, The Supreme''s purpose is to ensure the continuation of their legacies.]

    Jake listened intently, absorbing this revelation. The gates that appeared after the invasion were not merely portals; they were connections to shattered dimensions seeking refuge and continuity within the surviving worlds.

    "I guess I am too weak to know the name, hmm next one Shop" Jake mumbled and opened the next Scree.

    5. I have System : Increase Luck ]

    Jake glanced at the Achievements and was puzzled by the third one. "Nexus, I don''t even have maids. What''s up with this Achievement?" he asked, scratching his head, bewildered about its origin.

    Nexus responded, [ that particular achievement, ''Master of the Celestial Maids,'' might be a bit confusing. It doesn''t necessarily refer to traditional maids as you might think. In the context of our Celestria World, ''Celestial Maids'' are symbolic entities that represent the harmonious alignment and management of different magical energies within a awakened cores.

    It''s more about mastering the balance and synergy between your various energy sources rather than having literal maids.]

    He continued, [So, in essence, it reflects your proficiency in orchestrating the coexistence and cooperation of the diverse magical energies at your disposal. It seems you''ve excelled in this aspect, achieving a state of balance and mastery in handling the unique powers bestowed upon you without even practicing.....Just kidding its because of Dual Core Synergy Skill effect]

    Jake nodded calmly, absorbing Nexus''s explanation. However, disappointment still lingered on his face.

    [A Perverted Maid fetish, So this is your Fetish?]

    "Shut up!!!" Jake yelled, his face turning red with embarrassment.
