Lucien spoke with the Primordial Slime for a long time.
He asked question after question and the slime answered most of them with patience that seemed almost endless.
Slowly, Lucien's chaotic thoughts began to settle.
Yet there were limits. The Primordial Slime refused to speak about the other Primordial Entities or the monsters within the Black Mass. It also avoided details about the Human Ancestor. Lucien felt bad since it was a topic that he was particularly eager to know.
When Lucien asked about the System, however, the slime obliged.
Lucein then learned that the System was a remarkable design. It was crafted not merely as a tool but as a framework that adapted to the bearer's nature. Those who received inheritances from other worlds didn't all gain Systems. Each received something entirely different. Something tailored to their essence.
The Primordial Slime called those who had received the cheats...
Liberators.
