Furthermore, shockingly, after all of the information was done being dumped into his head, even though it was just in the form of emotions and sentiments, he could still clearly discern what it was and what it was elaborating on exactly!

’This... this is everything about the 『Origin Passage Creation Art』! Now... although I can’t put it into definite words just like how we can’t do the same with our emotions sometimes... I swear I clearly comprehend what this Art is about and how or what I need to do precisely in order to utilize it... it’s just like an intuition!’ As his non-existent eyes were shining in clear brilliance of excitement and eagerness, a new batch of emotions was loaded into his head next.

Shua~

However, this time, although he roughly comprehended the meaning behind the emotions, he wasn’t one hundred percent certain regarding the details. And he felt like he needed to unravel its accurate meaning this time as it didn’t come to him naturally.

He also grasped one transparent distinction between the previous batch of emotions and the new one. While the former was a type of instruction and enlightenment, the latter was a type of description that was trying to transmit specific words in the form of emotions.

Or more plainly, while the first one felt more like processed experiences and memories, the second one was more like raw emotions which you needed to understand by yourself.

That’s why, Virus had this odd feeling that unlike the former chain of emotions which he could clearly follow, he needed to decipher and contemplate deeply on the second one in order to apprehend it precisely.

’Hmm... I don’t fully get the specifics... what should I do...’ As this line of pondering appeared within his head, immediately, he thought of a possible solution.

’What if I translate these abstract emotions into concrete words?’ As this possible answer revealed itself to him, a very complicated algorithm started to take shape within his mind.

This was happening because his plausible resolution was the production and creation of an extremely complex algorithm that would be capable of translating, converting, and deciphering ’Origin’ sensations and emotions into concrete terms.

This process included him, first, considering every feeling that was directly transmitted into his head by ’Origin’ plus every external feeling that Virus had experienced up to this point. And second, it comprised of the procedure of comparing them with concrete words and finding the best definitions or words for each of them. In short, he was creating the perfect [Emotion to English Translator] algorithm.

『Algorithm completion rate: 2%...』

『Algorithm completion rate: 24%...』

『Algorithm completion rate: 32%...』

『Algorithm completion rate: 46%...』

『Algorithm completion rate: 58%...』

『Algorithm completion rate: 79%...』

『Algorithm completion rate: 100%!』

As the production of the Algorithm was perfected in a certain sense, Virus pondered, ’Hmm, first, let’s see what the former emotions which gave the accurate instructions, enlightenment, and experiences of the 『Origin Passage Creation Art』 are about.’

Immediately, he put them through the algorithm as he waited for the translation to appear before him.

Unfortunately, the result disappointed him greatly.

『Error!!! %^#$ Error! @%$ $^#$% #@$ Error! @% %^$#! Error!!!』

’Hmm... something’s stopping me from translating it into words. Right, ’Origin’! But... why won’t it let me translate it?’ Confused, putting on an imaginary frown, he wondered to himself.

He also deliberated further, ’Although I knew the full translation of the knowledge of 『Origin Passage Creation Art』 would be out of the questions since it consists of complicated experiences and enlightenments which can be never put into raw and one-dimensional words alone, I assumed, my algorithm at least would be capable of translating a few words of the said Art... but even that was prevented by ’Origin’! Damn it!’

’Sigh... whatever, let’s try the second one.’ Wanting to see if it also prevented the second rush of emotions from being translated, he put them through the algorithm.

『Translation Successful!』

’Oh!’ Luckily, however, it worked this time, meaning that the ’Origin’ wasn’t against the translation this time around.

And also, since it was devoid of any experiences and enlightenments, Virus was confident the translation would be almost perfect.

’Let’s take a look at it then.’ As this reflection showed up within his head, words and sentences revealed themselves.

『Requirements necessary for activating the [Origin Passage Creation Art]:』

〈1. Fully Annihilated Energy Pathways/Erased Energy Pathways from The Roots.〉

〈2. Absolute Comprehension of [Origin Passage Creation Art].〉

〈3. Temporary Transfer of Consciousness Into ’Origin’. 〉

〈4. Mysterious Blood of Undisclosed Origins.〉

Without any further ado, gazing upon the words hovering in his line of sight, Virus began to wonder as a shimmer of understanding was flickering throughout his caged consciousness.

As his attention was focused on the first requirement, which was 〈1. Fully Annihilated Energy Pathways/Erased Energy Pathways from The Roots.〉, he delineated in an extremely passionate manner, ’Oh... I see... so that’s why ’Origin’ erased my Energy Pathways! Well, it totally makes sense, to be honest! Since every single body can contain only one set of Energy Pathways and having two sets of Energy Pathways is like saying two parallel lines will eventually meet... simply impossible and against logic or common sense.’

’Anyway... it all happened due to it being a crucial requirement of creating a new set of Energy Pathways... Sweet!’ Smiling from ear to ear, Virus exclaimed happily. He was very jovial because this simple fact alone meant that ’Origin’ also wasn’t harboring any hostile intentions against him from the very start.

It wasn’t trying to trap him. It wasn’t attempting to replace and steal his consciousness or physical body. And neither was it trying to imprison him. Overall, at least for now, it had no intention of harming him in any way and that was extremely good news for Virus.

’The second requirement, 〈2. Absolute Comprehension of [Origin Passage Creation Art].〉. Hmm... I think the only way for its full comprehension was through the emotional transference of Art’s knowledge... otherwise, I don’t believe even ten thousand years would’ve been enough for a normal cultivator to grasp everything that needs to be enlightened about.’
