Chapter 207: The Power of Every Titan In One
The possibilities were practically endless.
Suddenly, his laughter stopped.
"Hmm..." Luke rubbed his chin thoughtfully.
"Wait a second-"
"The Cosmic System is an ability that requires Cosmic Energy to create."
"With Titan Harmony, I could convert my Aether into Cosmic energy to create them in another form, but-"
Luke’s thoughts immediately returned to the biggest issue he had discovered during the previous battle.
The *Cosmic System*.
More specifically, its terrifying Aether consumption.
The celestial bodies—the moons, asteroids, and even the miniature planet—required an absurd amount of Aether to summon and maintain.
Currently, only his *Cosmic Heart* could generate enough to sustain them.
"So the real bottleneck isn’t the abilities... it’s the Aether supply."
His brows gradually furrowed. If he couldn’t solve that problem, then no matter how powerful the Cosmic System became, he would never be able to unleash its true potential.
His thoughts naturally drifted toward the **Nexus Titan**.
"But... the Nexus Titan can’t combine different Titan body parts."
He paused mid-sentence. "No, wait a second!"
Luke’s eyes suddenly widened.
Since he could freely use every Titan’s abilities regardless of his current form...
Didn’t that also mean he could use *Myrkhal’s Form Assimilation*?
His heartbeat quickened.
Form Assimilation allowed him to borrow specific characteristics and even specific body parts from another Titan—wings, horns, arms, and even certain internal organs.
"So, what if I assimilate the *Cosmic Heart* while remaining in another Titan form?" The thought alone made his breathing grow heavier.
If it worked, his greatest weakness might disappear completely.
But the excitement quickly cooled.
"No." Luke frowned.
"Myrkhal’s abilities only worked on Titans below the Pure Titan lineage."
That was what Nyx had told him.
So he had no idea whether *Form Assimilation* would even work on a Pure Titan.
After all.
Borrowing the body part of a Pure Titan was no different from granting a mortal a fragment of a god’s body.
It simply didn’t make sense.
Yet.
The *Nexus Titans* had achieved exactly that in their own realities.
They had harmonized multiple Titans and Authorities into a single Origin System.
A slow grin spread across Luke’s face.
"If they could do it. Then why can’t I at least try?" His eyes gleamed with anticipation.
"VOLTRAX!"
In his excitement, Luke shouted the Thunder Titan’s name without holding back.
At that moment, he didn’t care who heard him. His mind was focused on only one thing.
The possibility of breaking yet another limit.
The next moment, Luke’s body expanded.
In an instant, he transformed into a 17-foot-tall Thunder Titan. His entire body became clad in dark-blue plate armor, while six sharp spines extended from his upper back. A pair of horns curved upward from his head, forming a crown-like shape.
Lightning coursed endlessly through every inch of his body.
Surprisingly, the huge wings on his back remained.
Luke smiled.
It seemed Form Assimilation from his Winged Titan had carried over. He no longer needed to transform into the Faceless Titan just to assimilate another Titan’s body part.
"Now time to find out the truth." His expression turned serious as he dismissed the wings.
At his current mastery, Form Assimilation could only maintain one assimilated body part at a time.
The moment the wings disappeared, Luke’s body stalled in midair before gravity reclaimed him, causing him to slowly fall toward the ground.
He paid no attention to it.
His 5× stat multiplier was still active.
Closing his eyes, Luke took a deep breath.
"Haa..."
Then.
He activated Form Assimilation once more.
This time, instead of wings. He replaced Voltrax’s Thunder Heart with the Cosmic Heart.
THUMP!
A heartbeat echoed through his body.
It was completely different from the violent rhythm of the Thunder Titan.
THUMP!!
The second beat rang out, louder than the first.
THUMP!!!
The third heartbeat reverberated through the air itself.
Golden-purple Cosmic Energy surged from within his armor, gradually replacing every strand of crackling lightning flowing across his body.
Luke’s eyes snapped open.
"IT SUCCEEDED!!!"
His unrestrained roar exploded across the mountains, producing a violent air shockwave that rippled outward for nearly a kilometer.
Far below, the traveling merchants, Blackstone patrol knights, and adventurers moving along the Ashveil Trade Route all heard the thunderous roar.
Everyone instinctively looked toward the Stormhowl Mountains, their expressions turning pale.
The voice carried an overwhelming pressure, making it feel as though it belonged to a being standing at the threshold of the Golden Knight realm.
Horses neighed in panic, refusing to move forward, while thousands of beasts deep within the forest fled in terror. Trees shook as hundreds of creatures stampeded away from the mountains, unintentionally forming a small beast tide that rushed toward the Ashveil Trade Route.
Witnessing the scene, the merchants and adventurers grew increasingly anxious.
"Please don’t let it be another disaster."
"Baron Luke will deal with it... right?"
The Blackstone patrol knights tightened their grips on their weapons, while everyone silently prayed that the lord of Blackstone Territory would stop the incoming beast tide before it reached the trade route.
The person they were hoping to save them didn’t notice the ongoing commotion he had created.
"Now." Luke clenched his fist with a confident smile.
"I don’t even fear a Peak Golden Knight anymore."
Surprisingly, the System didn’t appear to crush his confidence this time.
Because.
Luke wasn’t exaggerating.
Although his raw strength still hadn’t reached the Late Golden Knight realm, the techniques and combinations now at his disposal were enough to make even a Peak Golden Knight think twice before facing him.
He no longer needed Valzareth to use Void Step, allowing him to escape almost any dangerous situation or pursue fleeing enemies with ease.
More importantly, he could now create clones, and each one could independently transform into the Caelith Titan.
Just imagine it...
Ten clones.
Ten Cosmic Punches launched simultaneously.
Even a Peak Golden Knight would struggle to remain calm.
They would be scared shitless.
"Now I can even summon more clones during battle." Luke smiled.
With the Cosmic Heart supplying an endless stream of energy, sustaining multiple clones would become far easier than before.
The more he thought about the possibilities, the brighter his smile became.
Every new discovery brought him one step closer to rescuing his wives.
"Soon I’ll have enough strength."
Just then, another outrageous idea suddenly flashed through his mind.
This time, however, he didn’t dare test it himself.
So he decided to ask the expert.
The horn—
Ahem.
"Almighty System."
"System..." Luke asked with hopeful eyes, "can my human form also use the 5× and 3× stat multipliers?"
