Chapter 3113 Flexibility
The truth was that many of what he had noted first were just the largest changes. But there were many smaller ones, things he assumed must have been like fringe techniques or abilities of his previous Dimensional Methods that weren\'t fully compatible with his current self, but were still worthy of being a part of his process at least in part nonetheless.
However, these fringe changes to his body were still important, forming a network and a foundation that allowed the rest of him to function properly.
What made Leonel truly curious, though, was how [Final Destruction] and [Dimensional Cleanse] fit into all of this.
From what he understood, no matter which iteration he was talking about, he would undoubtedly use these two methods.
However, they were also incredibly flexible nonetheless. When he formed his Innate Node, he didn\'t experience any rejection from them at all.
Since things had reached this point, Leonel decided to start with step one and just work his way forward.
His Metal Body… what did it mean to absorb Star Force?
Leonel knew well, though it hadn\'t always started off that way.
Star Force was the engine that made the entire universe go. Without Star Force, there would be nothing.
Even as a mortal of Earth, Leonel had a great understanding of this. After all, without the sun, there would be no "Earth" in the first place. It would just be a meaningless blob of rock in the middle of nowhere.
It was because of this uniqueness that Star Force often seemed to just be an addition to already powerful Forces. There were many Forces that seemed to have Star Force tacked onto the end of it as though it was a careless addition. But the reality was that having Star Force as a part of a Force gave it its own driving power. Forces with Star Force, rather than relying on others, could make their own impact on the world and it was why such Forces tended to have hidden characters to them that transcended just the element they represented alone.
Scarlet Star Force, for example, was Creation at an Extreme.
Leonel had a theory that it wasn\'t the only powerful Star Force-infused element that had such a hidden history to it. He bet that they all did. Nôv(el)B\\\\jnn
This wasn\'t the first time Leonel had made use of the power of Star Force, either. The moment he realized the kind of boosting power it had, he created a technique that was with him even to this day.
[Star Fusion].
The shocking thing about this technique was that Leonel had never really had to make many changes to it, and it was one of the few things that had followed him along in his journey without being left behind.
And yet…
He was still only using the technique to a minuscule level compared to its true potential.
For one, he was relying on Vital Star Force, a Star Force that he didn\'t really have much affinity with in the first place, and one he wouldn\'t have even learned had his future self not gone to find a path to allow him to save his wife.
However, now, Leonel would be able to directly absorb Vital Star Force. As a result, his affinity for Vital Star Force would hit an absolute peak and he would be capable of using [Star Fusion] to an entirely new level.
But even that was still just the surface because that wouldn\'t change much. He would still only be using the technique at only a small corner of its true potential.
And that was where the power of this method came into play.
Star Force… It was the power of the universe… and with this method, Leonel could use it to directly power his Ability Indexes, increasing their power several fold.
Star Force was endlessly versatile and it was the only Force that could be freely added to any other, but there was also no one with a "Star Force" affinity by the same token.
It seemed that in this timeline, Leonel figured out why that was, and the reasons were ironically similar to why Weapon Force Innate Nodes didn\'t exist.
The moment he had this thought, he realized why these two paths synergized so well.
His Innate Node would provide him a large amount of control over the Spear and Bow Forces of the world, and his Star Force would allow him to spike that advantage, fueling it to another level…
And then came [Star Fusion].
The reason Leonel liked using the Brazinger family Heirloom so much was because it could super-charge his control over the world, making his words carry far more weight.
But now… Leonel could do that directly himself without the need to rely on an external item in the first place.
And if he added [Star Fusion] on top of that, especially [Star Fusion: King\'s Might]…
He might well and truly become a God without even having formed his Dharma in the first place, let alone his Idol.
And all of that was still just the first aspect of his new changes and it only touched upon one life, a life where he had taken [Star Fusion] and created a foundation that stood above the world.
The next aspect was a bit more complex, or a lot simpler depending on the way he looked at it.
Because of the change to his Metal Body, his Divine Armor technique would likewise have to change. However, because of the added flexibility, it was able to finally perfectly incorporate the other aspects of the Morales Lineage Factor.
This meant that for the first time, his Divine Armor would be able to take full advantage of not only Ores… but Force Herbs and Flames alike…
All thanks to the Flexibility of Star Force.
