Reincarnated as an Energy with a System-Novel

Ning appeared out of the portal into an open space. He looked around to find the service station and found it floating next to a gas giant.

The blue gas giant glowed brightly from the sun that was behind him, and almost looked like a hospitable planet with water in it.

If there were some green parts on the surface of the planet, he would've thought it was a planet with a thriving life.

Ning looked away from the planet and toward the Service Station. He was here to steal from it, so he was going to do so.

Just then, a shadow fell on the Service Station. Ning wondered what was happening when he also saw it fall on the planet behind it.

He focused on the sun and saw something weird around the sun.

"What is that?" he asked.

<It is a metal barrier around the sun to harness its energies.>

"Damn, how big is that?" Ning wondered.

<It is about 100 kilometers wide and 1000 kilometers long. It is separated into 10 different units that can revolve the sun together or separately >

"I see," Ning thought. "I wonder how useful that is."

<It is quite useful, but its true potential is only reached when they are able to make rings that surround the entire sun.>

<Then, they can start adding more rings to gather up the wasted energy from the sun.>

"I didn't expect to see something like this today," Ning said. "Good to know."

Ning ignored it for now and looked at the Service station. It looked different from the one he was in before, so he had to ask the system for a blueprint of the entire station.

Once he got it, he had a general idea of where exactly he had to go.

Ning teleported into what he guessed was the room full of Space stones and was happy to see that he was right about it.

There were some people in the room, but they couldn't see the small, non-reflecting metal hovering in the air.

Ning looked around to find the biggest pieces of Space stones. He needed quite a few of them, so he located the ones he needed.

Once he did, he started taking the cylinders.

He didn't need to take the space stones alone since henceforth, he was going to be traveling by his ship. As such, it was better to take the cylinders themselves.

Once he took all the cylinders, before the people could realize they were missing, Ning teleported away.

He appeared outside of the station a few hundred kilometers away. Ning's body appeared out in space, and Ning quickly switched over to his body.

Ning then grabbed his cylinders and pulled out his ship from his storage. He appeared inside the ship and placed all the cylinders on the bridge of the ship.

Once done, he started getting ready to leave when he saw the shadow fall on him. He stopped and thought for a second.

"System, if I were to leave now, how many years would it take for me to reach the wormhole?" he asked.

<20 years>

"And how many relative years will I have before I need to reach the location on the other side?" Ning asked.

<If you can reach the wormhole in 20 years, you will have about 20 years more.>

"I see," Ning thought as he looked towards the sun. "I can do it after going to the other side."

He started the engine and before he knew it, the ship was flying through space at the speed of some of the fastest spaceships out there. Ning had upgraded it to be so.

Saphanrda came out after Ning let her, and she looked around with a confused look on her face. "We're on a spaceship? What happened to going to the other universe? Are we there yet?" she asked.

"No, we're only on our way to the wormhole right now," Ning said.

"What? I don't want to wait. Call me out when you're done," she said and returned to the spirit space.

Ning chuckled a little. "I wish I too could just—"

Ning paused. "Wait, I can," he thought and quickly brought out the black metal again. Now that he had this small metal sphere, he too could sleep without the fear of losing his 52 Quintillion energy.

So, he quickly set up the spaceship for what it needed to do, and after consulting with the system, he switched his body with the small metal.

"Wake me up in 20 years as long as everything in the ship goes without any trouble. If there is trouble, wake me up immediately," Ning said.

<Understood>

Ning slowly felt his mind slip away as, after many, many years, he found himself falling unconscious. It was a familiar feeling that he had forgotten long ago and was happy to remember.

As soon as he lost consciousness, Ning found his consciousness resurfacing as his mind focused back. He quickly remembered what he was doing and looked around to see if there was any problem with the ship.

"Any diversions?" he asked.

<No, you're on track.>

"That means I've arrived at the black hole?" Ning asked.

<Yes, you can see it outside>

"Really?"

Ning walked up to the front window of the ship and looked outside. He saw a line of spaceships flying towards the distance to a giant hole in space.

"That's not it, right? No, that's the wormhole. Then… is the black hole belo—"

Ning's sight fell below, but he saw nothing there. However, the vast nothingness was very scary for him, since he could see no star or any other sources of light.

The nothingness was surrounded by a giant ring of glowing light, letting Ning know that what he was looking at was in fact the black hole.

He tried to think of words to say, but the majesty of the Blackhole struck him speechless. As such, he spent the entire time staring into the abyss.
