Genshin Impact: I, Heavenly Principle, Will Make Teyvat Supreme-Chapter 144: Become My Angel, Kurumi
Chapter 144 - Become My Angel, Kurumi
"What a pity... nothing special about this point in time."
Noah's figure appeared in Tengu City as he shook his head in mild disappointment.
Even though he was now within a great universe, his power remained mostly unaffected. However, he felt noticeably less fluid when manipulating laws.
The laws of a great universe were of far greater quality, whereas the laws of the Teyvat Universe were comparatively weak.
At the moment, he could still freely control these laws only because he was the embodiment of the Teyvat Universe itself.
Within this solar system, he remained the strongest being. Even the Spirit of Origin wasn't at the level of destroying planets just yet—though, given enough time, she would undoubtedly reach Phanes' level.
After all, she was a lifeform born alongside the seed of the Kabbalah—a true lesser god.
"Still, that's not a big deal. I just need to collect a fragment of the Kabbalah, and that should resolve the issue of law quality."
Noah's gaze shifted toward a nearby park.
There, a girl in a black gothic dress knelt gracefully, feeding a stray cat. Her long, jet-black hair cascaded down her back, her left eye concealed by asymmetric bangs.
Noah smiled and approached.
Kurumi Tokisaki crouched low, gently sprinkling cat food onto a napkin on the ground. She spoke softly, "Eat up while you can. Once I leave, make sure to hide so no one finds you."
She sensed someone approaching—someone whose gaze was fixated on her.
Kurumi was used to this. She knew she was beautiful. After all, she had once been a noble lady.
Even if she simply walked through the streets, men with ill intentions would often attempt to approach her.
Whenever someone tried something indecent, she would devour their time.
Though the act disgusted her—sometimes to the point of nausea—she had to do it. To correct the tragedies that should never have happened in this world, she had no choice.
She figured that the person approaching now would either try to drive her away or attempt to flirt with her.
"Kurumi Tokisaki, do you wish to fulfill your heart's desire? Do you want to learn the truth behind the birth of the Spirit of Origin and her true intentions?"
The voice from behind made Kurumi freeze.
A storm of emotions erupted in her heart as she stood up instantly, turning around with a grave expression.
But when she saw the speaker, she was momentarily stunned.
Before her stood a young man so impossibly handsome he didn't seem human. His golden eyes shimmered with the truths of the universe itself.
Regaining her senses, she took a step back. Behind her, the stray cat let out a startled meow before darting into the nearby grove.
Kurumi snapped into action. Spiritual energy surged from within her, transforming her attire into a striking red dress. In her hands appeared an ancient flintlock rifle, which she aimed at the mysterious young man.
"Who are you? Are you a Spirit? But as far as I know, there are no male Spirits."
Noah admired Kurumi's sudden transformation. Memories from his student days, watching anime, came rushing back.
Back then, she had been his favorite character—seductive, playful, and willing to rewind time thousands of times just to save the one she loved.
"I am a Creator from another world. Hm... words alone won't be enough to explain."
"This contains everything you wish to know. Once you see it, you'll know what choice to make."
As he spoke, a glowing sphere of information materialized in Noah's hand.
Within it lay all the answers Kurumi sought—the truth of the Teyvat Universe, the Spirit of Origin's plans, the seed of the Kabbalah, and more.
Kurumi remained cautious, her gun still trained on this enigmatic stranger who, deep down, filled her with an unexplainable fear.
Kurumi watched the floating sphere of information before her. Sensing no danger, she cautiously extended her index finger and gently touched it.

In an instant, a flood of memories surged into her mind.
For a brief moment, her consciousness went blank.
But as she rapidly processed the information, her crimson eyes widened in shock. Disbelief and astonishment filled her gaze.
"My Spirit Crystal... is a fragment of the Kabbalah. As someone compatible with the Spirit Crystal, I am one of its guardian angels!"
And yet, that wasn't even the most shocking revelation.
An otherworldly Creator was searching for the Kabbalah, seeking to grant this supreme truth to the cosmos he had forged.
Teyvat—the world beyond!
Beyond that, she now knew the true identity of the Spirit of Origin and the nature of her creation.
And the reason she had sacrificed countless lives to birth new Spirits... was nothing more than an absurd attempt to resurrect a single friend.
That's right. Not a lover.
Not Shido Itsuka.
But Shiori Itsuka.
Noah smiled as he observed the conflicting emotions flashing across Kurumi's face. "Kurumi Tokisaki, become my angel. In return, I will restore every life lost since the Spirit of Origin's creation."
As he spoke, the Ouroboros Ring behind him slowly rotated.
This world was unique—the seed of the Kabbalah held control over 90% of the Earth-Moon system's authority.
By gathering all the Spirits, he could fully assimilate this domain.
Kurumi stared at the young man before her, who extended his hand with divine serenity, like a savior descending from the heavens.
For some reason, a deep trust welled up from within her. She believed him—believed every word he spoke.
Her voice trembled slightly. "Is it true? Can you really save everyone?"
She had spent her existence devouring time, bearing the title of the most wicked Spirit. All for what?
Nothing but the chance to return to thirty years ago—to kill the Spirit of Origin and undo the tragedies of the past.
But no matter how many times she tried, even if she could travel back, time always resisted her. Even if she saved someone in the past, the future would always find a way to take them again.
Noah chuckled. "Of course. I am a Creator—paradoxes of time hold no power over me. And since you are a fragment of the Kabbalah, once you become my angel, time's paradoxes will hold no power over you either."
Kurumi remained rational, but her heart waged war against itself. Should she trust him? Or should she resist?
She sighed, then smiled. "I suppose I have no choice. Even if I'm being deceived... it's a gamble I must take. If I refuse, I might truly be throwing away my only chance."
"Besides, since the great Otherworldly Creator has come for the Kabbalah, I doubt you would let me simply walk away."
"So, I will place my faith in you, Creator."
Kurumi reached out and took the hand of the perfect young man.
Noah smiled as Kurumi Tokisaki carefully extended her hand, gently touching his.
The moment their fingers met, the Spirit Crystal within her resonated with him.
Kurumi felt as if her entire being—her Spirit Crystal, her very existence—had been enveloped in a cradle of life itself.
She could now clearly sense her connection to this Creator-like young man.
At the same time, she caught a glimpse of his immense power—a force beyond her comprehension, containing the entirety of a universe.
Just as he had claimed, he truly was the Creator of a cosmos.
Kurumi's heartbeat quickened. Her crimson eyes reflected the flawless visage of the young man before her. Her delicate lips, as soft as sakura petals, pressed together slightly.
She had made the right gamble!
Of course—why would an otherworldly Creator, searching for the Kabbalah, even bother deceiving someone like her?
With that realization, she lifted her cascading bangs, revealing the full beauty of her face. Her right eye gleamed with the golden clockwork of time. With an elegant motion, she lifted the hem of her dress and curtsied, exuding an effortlessly seductive charm.
"Ara~ Well then, I look forward to our time together, dear Creator."
Noah smiled. "My true name is Noah. From now on, I leave it to you, my angel, Kurumi."
As the guardian angel of a fragment of the Kabbalah, Kurumi's strength would grow alongside it.
While Noah could theoretically replace her once he fully controlled the Kabbalah, there was no need for such complications.
Simply put, in the Teyvat Universe, Kurumi's status would be akin to that of an Aeon in the Star Rail Universe—one who governed fundamental laws of existence.
Kurumi playfully tapped her lips with her finger. "Noah-sama, is it? I will etch your name into my soul. After all, from this moment forward, I will never leave your side."
She paused briefly.
"So... about what you said, saving everyone...?"
Noah chuckled. "You're quite impatient for an Angel of Time. Very well, come—let's return to 30 years ago and undo every tragedy at its source."
He opened his arms, signaling for Kurumi to embrace him.
Kurumi hesitated for a moment. She had never been this physically close to a man before.
But then she reminded herself—she was now his angel. From this moment on, they would be bound together for eternity.
She was someone who loved and hated with absolute resolve.
Since she had chosen to devote herself completely, she would not hesitate.
With a seductive, teasing tone, she murmured, "Ara, Noah-sama, you're quite eager to get close to me."
She pressed her hands to her chest and leaned into his embrace.
Despite this intimacy, she did not lose herself in Noah's overwhelming presence.
After all, Noah's perfection only applied to lifeforms within the Teyvat Universe.
In other universes, he had yet to establish absolute dominion.
Noah held Kurumi gently, feeling a deep sense of satisfaction.
After all, what could be more fulfilling than holding in his arms the very character he had once cherished as a mere illustration in his student years?
"Then... let us begin."
Behind Noah, the Ouroboros Ring began to rotate slowly.
Within the ring, a radiant star appeared—a singularity of the Kabbalah.
This singularity was, in essence, an anchor for the fabric of a universe.
Concepts such as time and space were merely its outward manifestations.
Now that he had obtained this singularity, Noah could directly manipulate the flow of time within the Earth-Moon system where the Kabbalistic seed had been born.
With Kurumi in his arms, Noah vanished silently into the air.
At the same time, the surge of spiritual energy from Kurumi Tokisaki's transformation into her Astral Dress triggered an immediate response from the two major organizations in Tengu City.
Aboard the Fraxinus airship, a fourteen-year-old girl with twin tails commanded the members of Ratatoskr as they searched for the source of the energy fluctuation.
The entire control room was in chaos.
"Commander! The spiritual energy signature has suddenly vanished!"
"What? It disappeared?"
"It's likely that the Spirit has returned to the Neighboring World."
"In that case, let's leave it be."
Standing beside the twin-tailed girl was a weary-looking silver-haired woman in a military-style uniform. Though she appeared to be in her twenties, her fatigued expression made her seem older.
Her eyes suddenly widened in disbelief, and the pen in her hand slipped to the floor.
Impossible... Kurumi's Spirit Crystal had vanished?
How could it disappear?
That was impossible!
Every single Spirit Crystal was a fragment of her own—a piece of herself.
No girl she had granted a Spirit Crystal could possibly destroy it with the power she had bestowed upon them.
And if the Spirit Crystal had been destroyed, it could only mean that Kurumi Tokisaki—someone whose pain she could feel—had been killed.
Damn it!
Kurumi's death wasn't the issue—the real problem was that the destruction of her Spirit Crystal had thrown her entire plan into jeopardy.
The twin-tailed red-haired girl turned toward the dazed woman. "What's wrong, Reine?"
Reine Murasame blinked, rubbing her tired eyes before sighing. "It's nothing. Just feeling drowsy again."
"Reine, your sleep issues are getting worse. Maybe you should take a few days off to rest?"
"No need, Commander. Even if I had time off, I wouldn't be able to sleep."
Meanwhile...
Thirty years ago.
The Eurasian continent.
The sun shone brightly over an endless grassland.
Noah and Kurumi Tokisaki appeared in midair.
Kurumi sensed the shift in time and glanced toward the land below. "So this... is the ground zero of the Eurasian Sky Disaster, thirty years ago?"
According to the information she had received, this was the place where three wizards used spirit techniques to harness the ley lines' magical energy and create the Spirit of Origin.
The process of creating the Spirit of Origin had resulted in a devastating spacequake that wiped out over a hundred millions people across the Eurasian continent.
"Should we kill those three wizards and prevent the birth of the Spirit of Origin... or..."
Kurumi narrowed her eyes at the three distant figures preparing their ritual. She instinctively wanted to rush over and slaughter them on the spot.
But she held herself back, instead turning her gaze toward Noah.
Of course, he wouldn't let her do that. If she killed them and prevented the Spirit of Origin's existence, then the Kabbalah he sought would never appear.
Noah's golden eyes shimmered. "Trust me. I told you—I will save everyone."
"The moment the spacequake erupts, I will transport all those affected into the future."
"That way, the destined events will still unfold, but those who were never meant to die will live."
The moment he finished speaking—
The skies darkened, and the once-clear sky swirled as a massive vortex of spiritual energy twisted space itself.
The entire Eurasian continent trembled as an immense surge of energy compressed space into a singularity.
At its center, a pitch-black sphere formed over the vast grassland.
Kurumi's expression changed drastically.
Noah pulled her close, wrapping an arm around her waist as he raised his hand. Behind him, the Ouroboros Ring began to rotate.
"Timeline shift!"
Buzz!
In an instant, the black sphere expanded like a cosmic explosion.
