Reincarnated as an Energy with a System-Novel

Ning improved his body quite a lot in the 17 and a half years he had spent there. Thanks to being so close to the sun's radiation, his body reached a toughness he would've never hoped to reach before.

Then, when there were only about 2 or so months left before the universe reached the location, Ning decided to leave.

Before leaving, however, he needed to take some more Space stones.

So, Ning teleported over to the station that was next to him and stole away some more Space stones that he would've needed.

Then, he got into his ship and left.

"How much longer?" Saphandra asked.

"Until?" Ning asked.

"Until this ship reached the place of course," she said.

"Well, it will take the ship about 19 years to reach the location," Ning said.

"What? Aren't we going to be late then?" she asked.

"That's why I got more of these," Ning said as he showed the cylinder to her. The space stones in it were rather large as well.

Saphandra chuckled when she saw those. "I wonder how much trouble those people must've gotten in because you keep stealing Space stones from wherever your go," she said.

"Well, I can't help it. I've got to look out for myself first, right?" he said and turned towards the ship's AI.

He quickly set up the path and teleported to the room with the Space drive. Then, he placed a cylinder in the empty space drive and went back to the bridge to use the ship.

Ning teleported back to the bridge and activate the space drive. Once activated, the silver light surrounded the ship, and a second after that, they teleported.

Ning arrived in a different part of the sky, but this wasn't their destination. He went back into the room at the back and looked for the perfect space stone to swap in.

There weren't any perfect ones, but one did come very close, and that was enough for Ning. He quickly swapped that in and went back to the front to teleport once again.

Once again, the silver sparks surrounded them entirely and at the next moment, they arrived at another location.

"How much longer now?" Saphandra asked seeing that Ning didn't bother going back to the room to switch the space stones.

"Let's see," Ning did some quick calculations on the dashboard in front of him and came back with an answer.

"Our destination is about 420 Billion kilometers away," Ning said looking at the map. "So, it's not that far away."

"What is that? 2 months away?" Saphandra asked.

"More like 36 days," Ning said. "I could teleport us there right now, but then we would have to wait for a while before the Universe got in position. I don't want to wait."

"Can't you just sleep again?" Saphandra asked. "You were content with doing that the 2 years it took to reach the station we just left."

"That's what I'm going to do," Ning said. "But I can't do it while the ship is stationary. I need it to keep moving and be alert to dodge any asteroid or small space bodies that it might have to avoid."

"Ah, that makes sense," Saphandra said. "Then, I will go to sleep, okay?"

Ning nodded and watched Saphandra go in. He went up to the window once more and looked out to the dark space in front of him.

Then, he too switched over to his metal ball and quickly fell asleep.

The spaceship flew through space, unobstructed by anything. The distance of 420 Billion kilometers became practically nothing when the ship flew at 40% of the speed of light.

After a month of flying, the spaceship finally slowed down. It started turning itself around a certain path, falling into an orbit along an imaginary location in space.

After nearly a month of being there, the ship finally stopped.

Ning woke up from his slumber and looked outside. "… wow!" he thought to himself when he saw a giant blue and orange nebula in front of him.

<2 more minutes>

"Oh," Ning was taken out of his thoughts when he heard the system. He quickly went to the back of the ship and again gathered all the Space Stones.

Then he teleported outside the ship and took it back into his storage. Now, he only have a bunch of Space stones in the few cylinders in his hands.

"Alright, let's do it," Ning said as he got ready. He flew to the perfect spot from where the system could use the Space stones to rip a hole in space.

As he waited for the single minute to be over, he thought of how he came to be here.

To be truthful, he had been very lucky on his journey here. There were instances where had he chosen a different path, he would've likely never arrived at this place.

There was the planet with the zombies. Had he never decided to nuke it, he would've never arrived at Genesis.

Had he not managed to defeat genesis, he would've never had enough energy to make his travel to this galaxy.

If he had even slightly more or less energy from Genesis and made his way over to some other galaxy instead, he would've never found out about the galaxy passing through or the space stones.

Those things would have certainly never made his path back to Kumia so much easier.

Ning opened a cylinder and put his hand into it. The cylinder was full of Space Stones, and Ning was touching all of them.

"Open!" Ning said and suddenly he felt some sort of emptiness grow inside of him all of a sudden. A vast amount of energy, probably a few quintillions of it was used at once to activate the space stones.

Then, the space tore itself in front of Ning. A vertical slit came down from the top to the bottom, about 4 meters tall and 2 meters wide.

There was a layer of silver and purple beyond the crack in space, but it was small and Ning could cross over it in a single step.

"Well… here I go," Ning thought and took his first step onto a different universe.
