[How exactly are you going to conquer an entire solar system with just one attack?] the system asked, its digital tone laced with genuine skepticism, even disbelief echoing in the void.

"You will be surprised," Aaron smiled, his crimson eyes gleaming with wicked confidence, a predatory grin splitting his face as he began weaving his masterstroke. He created a bridge between his continuum and the solar system, a shimmering rift tearing open in the fabric of reality, pulsing with dark energy that hummed like the breath of an ancient beast. From the continuum, Norton leaked into the solar system, a viscous, inky essence seeping through the bridge like liquid shadow, cold and alive, tendrils curling hungrily into the fiery expanse.

To ensure Norton did not escape the solar system, Aaron isolated the Flair Solar System in space, his will snapping shut like an iron cage around the entire celestial domain, sealing it from the greater universe with an impenetrable barrier that warped light and sound into silence.

Norton seeped into the solar system, replacing mana within the solar system, the night essence devouring the ambient energy with insatiable greed, tendrils of darkness coiling around every atom, every spark of flame. It replaced it completely, erasing the warm glow of mana in a wave of chilling void, the air growing heavy with an oppressive, nocturnal weight.

With Norton being the prevalent essence in the solar system, drastic changes slowly occurred within the solar system, the transformation creeping like a plague of eternal night. The very light from the sun soon disappeared, replaced by pitch darkness that swallowed the blazing orb whole, its fiery radiance extinguished in a heartbeat, leaving only a cold, black sphere hanging in the sky. The red flames that were prevalent in the solar system were replaced by dark flames, eerie and flickering with malevolent blue-black hues, the source of energy for the dark flames being Norton itself, pulsing with a life that mocked the sun's former glory.

The makeup of the solar system was altered, every being within it frightened by the occurring phenomenon, panic rippling through planets like a shockwave—creatures howling in terror, civilizations scrambling in the sudden eclipse, the ground trembling as if the cosmos itself wept. All except Aaron, who stood unmoved, his form a silhouette of absolute dominion amid the chaos.

"That's one out. Now the next step," Aaron smiled, his voice low and triumphant, transforming from the werewolf variant to a primogenitor vampire of blood control, his body shifting with fluid grace—skin paling to marble, fangs elongating, eyes burning with sanguine hunger, an aura of aristocratic menace enveloping him like a cloak of blood mist.

"Sit tight system. I'm about to change your entire worldview of true power," Aaron smiled, his tone dripping with arrogance, a challenge to the very fabric of existence. "Chronofold Blood Flow," Aaron said calmly, utilizing the ability he invented for the first time, his voice a command that resonated through the sealed space.

From his immortal body, blood gushed out like an ocean blocked from flowing by an extremely strong dam, a torrent of obsidian liquid erupting in a cataclysmic flood, defying gravity as it surged upward and outward. The blood flowed in the air, continuing to pour from Aaron as its endless source, a crimson-black sea defying physics, thick and viscous, carrying the chill of Norton. The blood enveloped the entire Raj planet, wrapping it in a cocoon of darkness that blotted out the red skies, seeping into every crack and crevice. But it didn't stop there. The blood bypassed space, flowing into every other planet within the solar system and the sun itself, tendrils leaping across the void in instantaneous bursts, linking all celestial bodies in a web of sanguine doom.

"What… who exactly have we been fighting against?" the Draconian chief asked, staring at the scene speechlessly, his massive form frozen in awe and dread, scales dimming under the oppressive weight. He wasn't the only one though; every Draconian present was left speechless by Aaron's attack, their spears trembling in slack grips, the battlefield silenced by the apocalyptic display.

The blood of Aaron, unlike its usual red colour, was obsidian black, as it used Norton as its essence source, gleaming with an unnatural sheen that absorbed light, a living void given form.

The entire solar system was covered with Aaron's blood, the occurrence possible because of the night essence supporting the ability, amplifying its reach and potency to godlike extremes, the planets drowning in a sea of darkness.

Aaron remained silent, his stance one with authority that drew the attention of everyone staring at him, an emperor amid his conquered domain, the air thick with his unchallenged presence.

Aaron raised his hand, like an emperor deciding the fate of those that opposed him, his fingers splayed in regal command, then dropped his hand, sealing their fate with a casual flick that echoed like thunder in the souls of the damned.

The blood dropped to the ground, swallowing every celestial body whole in a cataclysmic plunge. An instant. The attack took just an instant, a blink of cosmic annihilation, before disappearing completely like it never happened, the blood vanishing into nothingness, leaving only eerie silence and confused survivors.

Within every planet, some beings survived, others didn't, creating a confused atmosphere within every planet on what happened—whispers of gods and demons, survivors blinking in the restored light, the dead reduced to forgotten echoes.

[It seems you failed. Perhaps your ability needs more polishing.]

"Nope. It worked just the way I expected it," Aaron replied, a smirk curling his lips, satisfaction radiating from his form like heat from a dying star.

[Congratulations! You have completed the quest.]

[Receive reward.]

Without so much as wasting time, Aaron accepted the reward, leaving the system speechless, its digital silence a testament to his audacity.

[Care to explain what you did?]

"Why should I? Just read my mind you lazy bum."

[No thanks. I rather not kill brain cells. I respectfully decline and pass.]

"You—" Aaron called out speechlessly, caught off guard by the system's banter, a rare flicker of annoyance crossing his features before dissolving into amusement.

"Well. It's a very simple ability and complex one. It combined blood sea, time talent and space talent. With manipulation over space, I connected every celestial body within the solar system together to allow my attack reach every single one of them. As for the reason some people are alive, and others are not, I utilized manipulation over time. Those that are disloyal in the future will be consumed by the blood sea, while those that won't will survive," Aaron explained, his voice casual yet laced with the weight of genius, the complexity unfolding like a dark symphony.

[That's more complex than you made it sound like.]

"Yup. It would have been almost impossible to pull off without Norton. Aside from amplifying abilities, I realized another unique nature of the essence. It's alive," Aaron disclosed, his eyes narrowing with revelation, a thrill coursing through him.
