As Ash viewed his own status, there was not a trace of surprise on his face, though inwardly he was truly shocked by what he was seeing. A quiet storm of thoughts rose within his mind as he processed the information before him, yet his outward expression remained completely calm and unmoving.
Somehow, due to the inhuman level of control he now possessed over his muscles, Ash maintained a flawless poker face without even realizing it himself.
The first thing that caught his eyes was his own True Name, ’The Forsaken One.’
The name itself sounded almost ominous, carrying a subtle but unsettling weight behind it.
Ash looked at the name for a brief moment, silently repeating it within his mind as he tried to grasp the meaning hidden behind those words.
A faint curiosity naturally arose within him, and without wasting any more time he focused his attention solely on his True Name, intending to see the description connected to it.
Soon, its description slowly appeared before his eyes.
"Ughh....reading this gives me creeps....I just hope nothing too dark happens anymore, I have had enough of it already...."
Ash muttered softly after reading the description of his own True Name. Even after saying those words, the uneasy feeling did not fade completely.
Somehow the description felt strangely fitting, almost as if it had been written specifically for him.
When he quietly reflected on his past, the path he had walked until now had indeed been filled with pain, hardship, and long stretches of darkness, to the point that the name itself felt almost poetic in a bitter way.
For a short while Ash remained silent, dwelling on the meaning behind that name and the weight it seemed to carry. However, he did not allow his thoughts to linger there for too long and soon shifted his attention to the next part of his status.
Which was his Race.
Well, it looks nice enough...I had to think for years just to come up with this name, at least it looks powerful and decent....
Indeed, this was a self given race name. After all, Ash was the first existence of his own species, so naturally the name deserved to be something that sounded worthy of that position.
And the Paragon Race sounded pleasant to hear while also carrying a sense of strength and dignity.
Next came the bloodline. Ash was also the one who had named his own bloodline. He had added the word Primordial because he was the very first person of this lineage as well, which was why he settled on the name ’Bloodline of the Primordial Paragon’.
The name felt fitting to him, simple yet meaningful, reflecting the origin of a lineage that began with him alone.
The bloodline abilities provided by my bloodline are almost similar to my already existing skills, maybe I will just assimilate them together to get a new abilities in the future...
Ash thought quietly as he observed the various abilities listed before him. Many of them felt strangely similar to the abilities he already possessed, almost like different expressions of the same fundamental power.
In fact, the total number of abilities he now had was increasing at such a rapid pace that he even began wondering whether he would ever get the opportunity to use all of them properly.
The thought made him pause for a moment. Perhaps it would be better to synthesize similar abilities together and form a single refined ability instead of carrying so many separate ones.
That approach would likely make things far more efficient. However, Ash quickly dismissed the idea for the time being, deciding that such refinement was something his future self could deal with later.
Right now, another question had already begun forming in his mind.
Its answer was not too difficult to guess.
In fact, Ash found himself wondering about the abilities of the two bloodlines he had originally possessed.
He had always been curious about them and wanted to understand what kind of powers they carried. Unfortunately, there was simply no way for him to know now.
By the time the effectiveness of his Eye of Omniscience had grown powerful enough to reveal deeper truths, those bloodlines had already vanished from his status window. Because of that, he had never been able to see their abilities properly.
Still, even without confirmation, he could make a reasonable guess.
His current bloodline ability to absorb other bloodlines and integrate them into his own most likely came from the fusion of his original bloodlines, combined with the mutation caused by the First Light of Creation.
Anyways, whatever happened has happened...let’s not dwell on it
Ash soon pushed those lingering thoughts out of his mind. They no longer held any real significance, and dwelling on things that could not be changed served no purpose.
What truly excited him now were three things.
His Lifespan.
His Potential.
And his Energy stat.
They were literally infinite.
