Chapter 41: This Is Power
'Nothing happened?' Al'ravee stood in the middle of the road, looking like a fool.The bystanders holding their mobile devices wondered what was happening but did not dare to go near him. Why the strange man could survive a lorry accident was unknown, HE was unknown, they instinctively feared the unknown. They should.The driver of the lorry was unconscious, unaware of the fact that his legs were damaged beyond repair.Al'ravee paid them no heed though. 'Of course, nothing will happen, it's not that simple. But my understanding of how electricity works should be enough.' Al'ravee himself knew both advanced physics and Krene's guide and had an inkling of what the concept of electricity should do.'Electricity, the flow of electrons, current...' Al'ravee kept on pondering as he put down his hand, his brain activity ran super fast.'The body of a human is a good conductor of electricity, no question about that. The body of a god is not considered race-specific but should be capable of t

Chapter 42: The Bad Hearted
Just outside an open large storehouse sixty meters away from Al'ravee, a four-meter, four-legged, two-armed robotic-looking machine walked out and positioned itself in front of Al'ravee.On its left was a chainsaw arm. It's right, a five-barrelled gatling gun arm. Mounted on its left shoulder was a missile launcher with its remaining two missiles and on its right shoulder... 'a laser cannon?'Al'ravee turned serious and excited "This will be interesting." "INTRUDER! STAND DOWN" The man piloting the mecha spoke out, his voice being amplified by the machine.'Are these guys dumb or what, I just tanked a missile and still killed their soldiers.' Al'ravee raised an eyebrow while thinking.The pilot himself was nervous. To him, this was some superhuman experiment gone wrong and he wasn't trained to fight this type of entity with this large Mecha. Especially after seeing what this superhuman could do.Al'ravee stood on his own in the center of the bodies. 'Sixty meters? I can cross that in

Chapter 43: Talk With Ozia
[The Capital]A striking skyscraper stood erect for all to see at the very centre of the capital. This skyscraper was the main centre of command for all members of the court, the place of retreat for all Divera clan members and also the office of the current Ruler, Lord Zummi. It was strategically built here in the city next to the most protected waters of the nation.As of now, Lord Zummi who had been present in the skyscraper when he heard the news of the rampaging founder, in all his wisdom, ordered for every exosuit user to be stationed in his immediate vicinity.The other politicians and clan members still alive had no desire to wait for death, they all fled to the Divera Tower for safety. Even the military generals ran. When all strategies fail, they must retreat.No one wanted to die and this place looked to be the safest right now. The generals had tried out their Mechas and had to stop. They only had a limited number and Al'ravee was reaping everything to pieces.One of the t

Chapter 44: Bow Before Me
Upon seeing the falling figure, Al'ravee laughed. "Ho! ho! ho! So be it then"Al'ravee still wanted to save his energy for one last test. 'four percent.'He rammed his fingers and toes into the concrete side of the skyscraper and launched himself upward.*WHOOM, BADAM, BADAM, BADAM...*His movements were similar to that of a mad gorilla rapidly climbing a cliff. His fingers and toes dug into the concrete and left holes and falling stones in their wake.Unsurprisingly, Al'ravees' climbing speed didn't match Darius's falling speed but it wasn't far from it.As they got close enough, Darius made a summersault midair and positioned his leg for a drop axe kick. He intended to send Al'ravee back down with force.Al'ravee propelled himself upward one last time, covering a lot of distance, and positioned his fist for an upward super punch.The punch and the kick met in the middle.*BOOM!!!!!*#############The courtiers watched the exchange from the balcony with eyes open wide in shock. This w

Chapter 45: Travel Time
Al'ravee was impressed. 'They probably gave him a different set of training since he was supposed to be the leader. Ai, such a bother' This only made Al'ravee more determined to break him."As you wish" Al'ravee dashed towards Al'ravee."Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaargh!" Minutes later, the only thing heard was Darius' cry of agony.…[Twenty-eight days later]Al'ravee was outside the skyscraper and he stared down at the shaking Darius who knelt before him in ragged clothing.Darius was completely broken. Al'ravee had tortured him and let him experience the pain of his body being continuously electrocuted. Everything was electrocuted... everything.Darius had surrendered long ago, he was just a human, and there was naturally a limit to his endurance. But Al'ravee had to make it clear that he didn't encourage any mutiny or betrayal. He had to make sure that Darius would remember him as his master…forever.In short, he had enslaved Darius by sowing fear into him. On the bright side, for Al'

Chapter 46: Halo
Then, he saw Al'ravee float into the sky, suspended by nothing. Al'ravee made sure that he was facing Darius and Darius also gazed at him.Al'ravee opened his mouth. Darius couldn't hear anything from inside the small shuttle but he could read Al'ravees' lips."Electromagnetism Concept, full power!"###########All the people who for some reason were still in the city felt the hair on their skin stand straight. Some women even had their long hair stand straight with the occasional sparks here and there.An omnidirectional magnetic field erupted, reaching a diameter of approximately one hundred kilometres with Al'ravee as the centre."Rise!" Al'ravee muttered softly.*CRACK CRACK SHACKA CLACK CLACK*All around the god, every form of metal and other objects that happened to be magnetised broke off the surface and rose into the sky.Bridges that stretched and cut through the city were unravelled as pieces of bitumen and concrete.The metal beams holding up buildings broke off their restr

Chapter 47: God-Empress Nordeline
"What concept did she get?" Jurdelious asked, a calculative glint flashing in his eyes.*sigh* Ris sighed, one could almost catch a glimpse of envy in his bright blue eyes. "She has the concept of Space, and the concept of Time".Everyone went quiet with their own thoughts."Anyways..." Jurdelious resumed his calm demeanor. "She's not in her right senses, we need to wake her up, what are you waiting for?" He directed that question to Ris."I thought it wise to wait for your arrival. Perhaps, you might have something planned." Ris said with a cunning smile. "Hmmm." Jurdelious didn't say anything.Al'ravee sent a transmission to Ris "Ris, what's happening?"Ris didn't look at him but still responded, "This empress Nordeline is a difficult person. Long ago, she was born directly on this planet in the presence of the humans here.You may not know yet but gods usually take their first forms from the entities close to them during their birth. Because of your parents, you have a human body a

Chapter 48: Fighting Nordeline
While Al'ravee was thinking about how and who was going to beat this empress Nordeline, he heard his father's voice."Al'ravee boy, why don't you fight her? It would be good for you to experience firsthand just how 'wonderful' it is to fight another god"Al'ravee "...""What?" Jurdelious asked, looking like he honestly didn't know why Al'ravee looked at him like that."You want me to fight her? What if something unexpected happens?" Al'ravee did not underestimate Nordeline, neither did he overestimate her. This was his first time taking a hostile movement against another of his kind so he had to be cautious."If anything unexpected happens, then I'll intervene," Jurdelious responded but Al'ravee still did not move. "What? You can attempt mass genocide but can't hit the first pretty goddess you see?"Of course, Al'ravee could not be provoked by such words and Jurdelious knew it. It would be very hard to find someone more beautiful than this white-haired goddess, but Al'ravee couldn't gi

Chapter 49: A Game Of Chess
[Three Hundred Years Ago, During the reign of Al'ravee as Lord Ravee of the Divera Dynasty ]"Father, you're getting quite good at this game. I'm finding it hard to win every day." Inside a well-lit room, a young man in his late teen years sat before a table with an ongoing chess game on it.On the other side of the table was Al'ravee. Both the young man and Al'ravee were in night garments, both apparently wanting to play a game of chess before going to bed."That's only natural. It would be weird if I could not beat you five times in a row by now." Al'ravee only commented lightly. "The creator was indeed a genius, there are some parts of the game that I find very intriguing."The Lord of the Divera Dynasty made a move on the chess board with a calm smile, this caused his oldest son to pay more attention to the game at hand.This was one of the peaceful moments Al'ravee had where he could consciously relax his heart. He had a lot of leisure time but not all of them were as calm as th

Chapter 50: Ten Seconds
[Three hundred years into the present ]Al'ravee opened his eyes with a calm expression, the aura of loneliness still lingering."Nothing has changed though. No one is truly my friend, and neither is anyone truly my enemy. I've gathered chess pieces before and I'll gather them again. The most important thing is still myself"If anything, his last five hundred-plus years had taught him to always put his own goals first. They were to be achieved by any means necessary.Ever since the fight with Nordeline which ended in a draw, he became somewhat aware of his situation. The fight was brutally analyzed and he concluded that his fight had been rigged.The Concepts of Space and Time. No matter how one thought of it, those concepts weren't a joke, not to mention that during the fight, he could sense how she had way more power than him. In other words, Nordeline had been nerfed to give him a chance.And who else could have the ability to nerf Nordeline? Basically every other God he currently
