Reincarnated as an Energy with a System-Novel

Ning stood in a space devoid of any stars for at least a few light years around him. It was mostly pitch black in his vicinity, but he could see things easily.

'That's done,' he thought, as he was finally finished with the first task he had left earth to do. It had been nearly a year for him, and in that time, something else had happened to him, something good.

He flew from there and opened a portal to a solar system that was not very far from him. On one of the planets there, a wormhole had opened to one of the other universes.

That universe had worlds with high amounts of Mana in there, and that was what Ning was looking for.

But, before he could go in there, he flew next to the sun of that system, and as he did, he opened his system information.

He had spent a lot of energy on what he had done previously, but that wasn't of much concern to him. What he was concerned with instead was the new Energy he had unlocked in the last year.

The Radiant Energy.

"What was the requirement, system? Taking in a lot of light?" Ning asked as he flew closer to the sun.

<Yes>

"Hmm, could I have unlocked it back in the other universe where I spent my last hundred thousand years as a hermit?" Ning asked.

<No. One of the other requirements was to kill a rogue Constellation>

"Oh… really?" Ning asked with a bit of surprise. "That sort of thing also plays into my requirements huh?"

<yes.>

<By now, all hosts would have gotten strong enough to defeat any rogue constellations, so that was put there as one of the requirements>

"I see," Ning said. "And what about Genesis? I killed a Galactical will. Did that not count for this before?"

<Killing a Galactical Will is not the requirement for unlocking the Radiant energy. That is a requirement for another energy, which you have completed. Once you complete the other requirements, you will unlock it as well.>

"Okay…" Ning said. By now, he was close enough to the sun that even metals would have started glowing red hot. However, he felt nothing and continued forward.

He needed to gather as much light energy as he could, so he continued.

"So, can you tell me what the next energy and requirements are?" Ning asked.

<Yes. Your next energy is Chemical Energy. To unlock it, you will have to observe 1 million different chemical reactions, and then spend 1 Septillion energy when you are done.>

Ning frowned slightly. "1 million different reactions? Do I have to actively search for them, or can I just unlock them by experiencing stuff in my daily life?"

<You will have to consciously look for them.>

"1 million," Ning could help but give an awkward laugh. "Sure, why not?"

He absorbed a lot of energy as he got close to the sun, of which a lot of it was light energy as well.

"Double my cap, please," Ning said. "I should be able to do all 3 in one go with this, right?"

<Yes. Doubling cap>

<Your energy cap has been doubled from 655.36 Billion to 1.31 Trillion.>

<Your energy cap has been doubled from 1.31 Trillion to 2.62 Trillion.>

<Your energy cap has been doubled from 2.62 Trillion to 5.24 Trillion.>

<Congratulations, You have bought all Radiant Energy Cap Increments>

<As a reward, the system has awarded the host with [Toggle -Low-Level Radiant Damage Ignorance]>

<You now have the ability to ignore 15% of Radiant damage your body could suffer>

<You can improve this skill in the shop>

"Finally," Ning thought to himself and turned around. He teleported to the top of the barren planet where the wormhole was located.

The wormhole was easy to find. Like a dungeon gate, it was a portal that had formed in this location.

"I should be able to reach a high level as a mage if I do this," he thought to himself. However, before entering, he needed to do something else.

"System, gather information from my clone," Ning said.

<Gathering Information>

Ning closed his eyes and suddenly, he gained all the knowledge that his clone had gathered for the last 10 days.

Suddenly, Ning frowned. "What the hell? Earth is about to go through a lot of danger," he thought. "How did it come to be?"

Just like his clone, he was confused about the actions and motives of the constellations as well. Something didn't add right.

"System, what is going on? Why are they acting like this?" Ning asked.

The system didn't answer at all.

"System?" Ning asked after not hearing from it.

<The system is unable to answer your question. The system could not find the answer.>

"What?" Ning couldn't help but be surprised. "What do you mean you can't find the answer?"

<The system can't give you an explanation at the moment.>

"The hell?" Ning thought. "Then when will the dungeon break? Can you tell me that?"

<Yes. The constellations are powering up the dungeons to the best of their ability, so within a day or two, the dungeon break will happen.>

"And how strong will the monsters be?" Ning asked.

<Between Tier 3 and tier 5.>

'B-rank to S-rank,' Ning thought. That was much more than his clone had been expecting. 'That's going to be a problem. Should I return?'

However, he needed to become a stronger mage so that he could cure people of mana poisoning. Who knew what would happen after he went back?

"There are two more days," Ning thought to himself. "Pass along my memories to my clone.>

<Understood>

"Hang on for just a little longer," Ning said softly and entered the wormhole in front of him.
