<Description>
The Power of Nexus is a Magic Path that unites the principles of Spirit Magic with the Power of Bonds. Aside from the combined powers of the two attributes, the Power of Nexus also grants the wielder access to a new energy, known as Nexus Essence.
On top of the abilities from its components, Nexus Essence possesses two major properties, that being linking and self-transcendence. Nexus Essence's linking property allows the wielder to freely create and manipulate links: drawing upon the essence of other beings, or forming up Magic points that accumulate massive amounts of magical energy, all through the formation of conceptual links.
Meanwhile, its property of self-transcendence allows the wielder to possess high levels of synchronicity with each and every one of the magicks in their arsenal, granting them high levels of mastery over their spells very quickly, and eventually, they can even enhance their own raw power endlessly.
<Basic Form (Levels 1-4)>
Magical Concentration: The initial awakening of the Power of Nexus, with only the property of "linking" being understood. Aside from the abilities gained from its component Magic Arts, the wielder gains the ability to freely "concentrate" the flow of Mana, making them converge at any spot as per what the wielder desires. The wielder can potentially generate Magic Points with this power.
Evolution I (Planar Infusion): An evolution to the power of Magical Concentration, and an indication of enhanced comprehension of the second property of Nexus Essence. With their abilities, the wielder is able to mix their Nexus Essence with planar energy garnered across the various planes of existence, becoming something new and powerful. These planes of existence include, but are not limited to: The Abyss, Dark Shogunate, Elemental, Heavens, Hells, Kingdom of Five Emperors, Primordial Chaos, Underworld and Valhalla. It is deemed as the most primal and mystic form of Senjutsu.
Evolution II (Infinite Evolution): A second, separate evolution to the power of Magical Concentration. Fully realising the second property of Nexus Essence, the wielder is able to infinitely increase in power with every passing moment, in other words becoming a walking force of perpetual self-transcendence. This also grants the wielder massive levels of Determination, further bolstering their might.
Evolution III (Heart of the Universe): A direct evolution to the power of Infinite Evolution. The concentrated Nexus Essence within the wielder directly alters their biology, evolving their hearts to be able to create more Nexus Essence. This bolsters their already nigh-omnipotent power even more, and also grants them the ability to freely absorb Cosmic and Abstract Beings within themselves to further fuel their own power.
<Specialisation Form (Levels 5-8)>
Body of Nexus - Anfans: An adaptation to the Power of Nexus. By directly infusing their very body with Nexus Essence, the wielder can achieve a silvery, giant form that possesses massive strength and durability.
Evolution I (Junis): An evolution to Anfans. The wielder can enhance their giant form to be either granted more strength or speed. The colour of the giant will also change depending on the attribute that is focused on.
Evolution II (Noa): An evolution to Junis. The wielder, empowered by hopes and dreams, adopt a more dazzling form that is greatly enhanced in all parameters. Additionally, they are granted wings that allow them to travel across space, time and dimensions.
Evolution III (Noa Godhood): A further evolution to Noa. The wielder apotheosises to obtain true divine energy, achieved by pulling and drawing in the strands of Akiva Radiation that linked themselves and the Gods, granting them a golden visage and further enhancing all of their abilities.
<Awakened Forms (Levels 9-16)>
Space Between Worlds: An adaptation of Noa / Noa Godhood's ability to traverse space, time and dimensions. The wielder can access a hub that serves as a connected gateway to all possible dimensions and realms, granting them a greater ease of travel between realities.
Evolution I (Dimension of Probability): One of the dimensions accessed by the Space Between Worlds. It is a living time rift where all probabilities play out and unfurl before the wielder's eyes, granting them the ability to predict the "proper" path of action to take, and even speak with beings from the future.
Evolution II (Dimension of Heaven): Another specialised dimension accessed by the Space Between Worlds. It is a realm where time and space poses no meaning, where the wielder's thoughts and desires freely shape the adjacent reality, putting them at a massive home field advantage.
Evolution III (Dimension of Reflection) [ℓ]: Another specialised dimension accessed by the Space Between Worlds. It is a realm that acts as a "reflection" or "echo" to all of Creation, a realm of pure abstraction that houses the Primal Atom, that when obtained, allows the wielder to freely manipulate all physical forces, and also create ethereal souls to do their bidding.
Heart of the Multiverse [δ]: A direct evolution to the Heart of the Universe. Also known as the Apex Plane, this evolved heart allows the wielder to directly tap into the entire plane of Absolute Power, along with its residents, which include the Wheel, the Primordials, the Creators, the Architects and the Weavers.
Evolution I (Heart of the Omniverse) [Δ]: An evolution to the Heart of the Multiverse. Also known as The Glory, or Reality Zero, this evolved heart allows the wielder to freely control the totality of existence, and for some more refined wielders, also grants them the additional power of Numerology, that is manifesting the effects of all possible symbolic possibilities, for the numbers 1 to 9.
Evolution II (Heart of True Infinity) [∞̸]: An evolution to the Heart of the Omniverse. Also known as the Omniversal Domain, this is the Heart of the very domain and "shell" encompassing the Omniverse. With it, the wielder is granted the full mastery over True Infinity Magic, and also possesses trace amounts of the Everything of All attribute.
Evolution III (Nexus Core) [Real Infinity]: An evolution to the Heart of the Omniverse. A very high-level Cosmological Heart, this Nexus Core is the source of all power and the Primordial Force that sustained the aforementioned cosmology. Obtaining this Core allows the wielder to be bestowed with insurmountable power beyond the comprehension of all Gods, being bestowed with the power of countless Sources, possibly superseding even the Pillar Conduits and Elytherions.
<Super Awakened Form (Levels 17-20)>
Essential Nexus [Real Infinity]: An evolution to the Nexus Core. The wielder becomes a force that exists with true essentiality: an existence that has to exist rather than simply existing out of a whim. This causes them to completely transcend all possible tiered power structures and hierarchies, and even the entire classification of power, becoming a single unavoidable constant that even the highest beings have no choice but to acknowledge.
Evolution I (Existential Nexus) [Real Infinity]: An evolution to the Essential Nexus. With it, the wielder becomes a true All-in-One, becoming everything and nothing within a singular entity, and able to likewise completely control everything from the smallest quantum bit to the largest of cosmologies. All strengths, powers and weaknesses are all under the wielder's control.
Evolution II (Absolute Nexus) [Real Infinity]: An evolution to the Essential Nexus, also known as Infiniton. The wielder both transcends everything and is yet also their reason behind their existence. With this simultaneous logic, the wielder can control creation, destruction and fusion in its most primal and absolute forms.
Evolution III (Omnispheric Integration) [Real Infinity]: An evolution to the Absolute Nexus, or more concisely its mastered state. The wielder's power to create, destroy and sustain become truly complete and perfect, becoming the apex Authority over the expanse, dictating all infinite structures and paradoxical hierarchies.
