[You can now check the information of your true name and attributes]
It didn't seem like it at first, but after taking a closer look at it, he saw that his profile had really changed.
'Damn! I have five attributes?'
The maximum number of attributes that drifters were allowed to have by Ul standards was only one.
When one received a Name, an attribute was automatically tied to it. Of course, the name and attribute often had something to do with their talent.
Oftentimes, it was like strings of fate that were woven together to connect a drifter to certain events that had occurred in a past dimension that had fallen to the rift.
Northern was about to go through the same thing. He was about to receive a Name and gain an attribute.
However, an anomaly was discovered.
Northern folded his hand, rubbing his chin as he thought to himself.
'I suppose if the system had not taken full control, Ul would have done something to nerf me?'
However, because of the void essence that corrupted Northern's soul energy, it was made impossible.
'I don't know if this is a bad thing or a good thing.'
Northern stared indifferently at his status for a while. Particularly looking at the attribute section. Then he scoffed and shrugged, saying,
"What can be bad about having five Attributes? Not just two, but five!"
Something in his heart swelled, Northern could tell the coming days were going to become promising, especially If he considered the fact that he had not even become a drifter, and yet he already had five attributes when all drifters had one!
Also, if he took into account the fact that he could now control and manipulate an energy far greater than Soul energy—void essence.
'So much potential to become strong… to become the strongest. Across all dimensions, only I will be the honored one!!!" Northern gleamed maliciously, the light in his blue eyes shining brighter.
He had felt bad about having no talent of his own, then even worse for being able to copy just one talent as a walker.
But suddenly a great compensation had been offered to him.
But onto the most interesting part… Northern grinned as he anticipated it.
Now that Ul's influence upon him had been completely removed by the system. It was possible for him to see the details of his attributes.
Northern enthusiastically summoned the letters with his mind.
True Name: [Nameless]
Description: You are a spawn of Void, you are nothing, a vessel of emptiness meant to serve only one purpose. Chaos and Destruction. You cannot be named. You are Nameless…
———
Northern tilted his head to the left, then to the right.
'Something is odd, abusive, and strangely amusing about this description.' He thought to himself.
He couldn't quite put his finger on it but the description called him nothing.
'Is that because of the nature of the Void? A vessel of emptiness?'
The most amusing thing he noticed was that.
"I cannot be named." Northern lips curled up.
"Something about this makes me feel like I'm special."
It would have been a different case if it said, 'You don't deserve a name. You should just be Nameless!' But that part of the description which said, 'you cannot be named. You are Nameless' had a powerful ring to it.
It sounded like Northern was a vessel that could not be affected by the naming concept.
Northern shook his head as his thoughts went deeper.
'Let's just continue checking this for now.'
True Name: [Nameless]
Description: [You are a spawn of Void; you are nothing, a vessel of emptiness meant to serve only one purpose: Chaos and Destruction. You cannot be named. You are Nameless. Your name is a vast sea of bleakness that swallows others and causes nothing but despair.]
UNIQUE ABILITY: UN-NAME
UN-NAME: [You can absorb the Name of others and make them Nameless. When names are absorbed, attributes are absorbed with them and broken into fragments. Attribute fragments can be used to enhance your own attributes. The stronger the rank of the name, the more fragments will be received.]
Northern's mouth fell open.
'Wo woo wooooo woooooo!!!'
He almost fell down the mountain in his excitement, but it wasn't hard to regain his balance.
Maybe it was because of the void essence that now filled his soul, but he had a more definite control of his body than when he was using soul energy.
'Or it could be something else…' Northern reconsidered.
Being able to unname a named person was huge! This literally made him an anomaly!
'Wait! Was this the reason Ul said an anomaly had been detected?'
Meaning that if Ul had been allowed full control, she would have surely done something to nerf him.
Northern exhaled and smiled heartily. Again, he looked so ridiculous. Then he said, looking down at the panel:
"Man, I sure am grateful that the Copycat system stepped in."
After a pause, he added, "I think I might just die from excitement, I haven't even checked my attributes yet! But wait, is it really normal to have abilities tied to one's name?" Northern wondered aloud.
However, there was no answer to such a question, until he met another human. And maybe asked them?
Or maybe not.
He wasn't confident in his socializing skills so he would just put off that thought for now.
However, his name gave him an overpowering potential already. Being able to break others' attributes down into fragments and use them to enhance his own sounded very promising.
'I suppose that was just the doing of the Copycat system. Attribute fragments, talent fragments, they all sound the same.'
Northern exhaled, he lingered for a while before resuming reading through the description.
True Name: [Nameless]

[Attributes]

Natural phenomenon, state of being, state of mind, state of physicality… you can become anything while applying a major level of flexibility to yourself. Your formlessness absorbs others' form into its own.]
'Wow…'
Northern nodded in approval. Moving on to the next.
Name: [Spawn Of Void]
Rank: [Mystic]
Description: [You are a Spawn Of Void, because of this, you can detect and manipulate Void essence to an immense degree.]
Name: [Limitless Void]
Rank: [Mystic]
Description: [Limitless Void is a metaphysical world that exists in your soul.]
Northern looked at the description for a while as his brows rose.
'I have a world in my soul?' It sounded so confusing, but he just couldn't wait to see that world.
However, he wanted to see everything first, most especially the last one. He suspected that [All Eyes] could be the reason for his excellent eyesight. So he couldn't wait to see its description.
Then, he moved on to the next…
