It had been more than a week since I embarked upon my arduous "training" in the exclusive pond soul realm training grounds. Guided by Helene, I was to engage in a soul state combat, with the pond's unique element properties lessening the excruciating agony of dying as I adapted to the process. The thought of the physical realm's torment weighed heavily upon me, as I counted the time spent nourishing myself and recuperating from countless deaths.For months on end, I toiled in the grassy expanse alongside the even-tempered yet fiery Helene. At my first foray into the soul realm, I was swiftly vanquished with the first blow, left without a chance to react. Helene's attack pattern remained constant, but despite countless weeks of training, I could barely evade her."Believe in your physical form, Dragon boy," Helene intoned, as she dealt another finishing blow, snapping my neck in a grotesque direction. "As long as you can endure, your body will remain steadfast."As I came to my senses,
For the past two months, Elvis had been training relentlessly in the soul realm, honing his physical combat fighting skills under the rigorous tutelage of Helene. With her unwavering dedication to his training, he had made remarkable progress, becoming a formidable fighter in his own right.But it wasn't just his physical prowess that Helene had helped him to refine. She had also taught him to harness and manipulate his energy to aid him in combat. And while she had not introduced him to any new conceptual ideas, their time spent together had fostered a deep sense of trust between them, allowing Elvis to absorb whatever lessons she imparted.Laying on the grass, gasping for breath, Elvis gazed up at the sky, his mind still reeling from the intensity of his training. It was then that Helene spoke, her voice cutting through the stillness of the soul realm."You have improved drastically, I guess you are ready to learn this skill then," she said.At her words, Elvis turned his head to th
"There are countless ways to grow stronger beyond battling beasts," June continued. "Gaining insight and understanding the intricacies of one's abilities is equally important. Take Foxy, for example; she possesses no elemental affinity, yet she has honed her ability to manipulate all elements, crafting a devastating black atomic blast capable of obliterating entire kingdoms."Elvis absorbed her words, grateful for the newfound knowledge. "Thank you for enlightening me," he said with sincerity.June smiled, sensing his eagerness to learn more. "That's enough for today. Let us meditate by the waterfall and continue your training later."Elvis nodded and assumed a position beside the cascading water, allowing the sound to soothe his mind and guide him into deep meditation.[Your understanding of water manipulation has reached an incredible insight][Water manipulation upgraded to Water mastery][Earth manipulation has reached an incredible insight][Earth manipulation upgrade Earth maste
Elvis had just completed his training, and the time had come for him to reunite with his friends. But before he left, he had some burning questions that he needed to ask, questions that had been nagging at him ever since he had awoken from his coma.As they sat on the rocks beside the cascading waterfall, Elvis turned to June and asked, "How is the outside world doing? I haven't been to the human city since I was training, and I'm curious to know what's been happening."June looked at him thoughtfully before answering, "It was quite chaotic at first, but things have since calmed down. However, all the human kingdoms are still on the lookout for you."Elvis furrowed his brow in concern. "Are they ready for my next visit? Because it won't be a friendly one," he said, his voice heavy with anger.June looked at him with a mix of worry and admiration. "Are you planning on taking on the entire human empire?" he asked. "That would be a suicide mission, my friend."Elvis shook his head. "No,
Upon Elvis's return to the domain plane, he was greeted with enthusiasm from everyone. After organizing a brief meeting, he unveiled his plan to combat the Northern human kingdom. Charlotte and Jorm, Elvis's faithful servants, expressed their support for his noble ambition without hesitation. The leaders of the other races, who owed their survival and shelter to Elvis, followed suit and concurred with his proposition.Elvis was pleased with their collective compliance and turned to his human friends, Drew, Tina, and Luna, who were present in the meeting room. He offered them the option to leave and return to their respective kingdoms if they opposed his plan or stay with him, and he would provide them with a haven sanctuary similar to the domain plane.The three friends exchanged glances, feeling apprehensive and uneasy. They sensed a subtle threat in Elvis's words, and it was difficult for them to swallow their nerves. However, after deliberating amongst themselves, they ultimately c
Silence enveloped the place as everyone tried to process the shocking revelation. Charlotte was particularly stunned; she struggled to wrap her mind around what she had just heard."Papa..." The word stumbled out of her mouth, as if she couldn't quite believe it.Elvis, on the other hand, wasted no time in addressing the issue. He turned his thoughts to the system, demanding answers.'What's wrong with Dryad?' he asked, his voice laced with urgency. "And why is she calling me papa?"The system hummed to life, its digital voice filling Elvis's mind. It took a moment to analyze the situation, prompting Elvis to crack a joke to lighten the mood. But the system didn't appreciate the jest.'Must you analyze things before answering?' Elvis quipped.The system's response was laced with sarcasm. "[Then, how do you expect me to appear professional?]" it retorted.Elvis sighed. He had forgotten that the system lacked a sense of humor. 'Just tell me what's going on,' he said, trying to steer the
Upon his return to his domain, Elvis sat down with the leaders of the races and Seven Shades to debrief them on his visit to the Northern Kingdom. As they delved into the discussion of battle plans, Elvis dropped a bombshell that left them all stunned."I am going to become a demon lord," he announced, his voice filled with conviction.The room fell silent as everyone exchanged confused glances. Elvis was taken aback that these individuals, who resided in a fantasy world, seemed to have no idea what a demon or demon lord was.'Shouldn't all fantasy worlds know this?' He asked himself.Realizing the need for an explanation, Elvis elaborated, "You can take it as a title I will soon possess in the future because I plan to take over the Northern Kingdom."Upon hearing this, Charlotte couldn't help but smile, while Jorm remained stoic, his attention firmly fixed on Elvis.Aware of the confusion and concern his words may have elicited, Elvis continued, "We are currently unknown, more like hi
"Enemy assailants approach!" cried a panicked voice, piercing through the quietude of the scene.A quick succession of orders reverberated, jolting the company of soldiers into action. The captain, a seasoned holy knight with a face furrowed by a life of hard-won battles, roared, "Arrange the formation! Magic unit, employ enchantments to reinforce our defenses, posthaste! What of the enemy? What is their status?!"A rider astride a powerful stallion untethered a majestic eagle perched on his shoulder, and with a deft hand gesture, sent it soaring into the azure sky. His eyes, alight with mystical energy, invoked the spell of 'Shared perception', enabling him to gaze upon the distant foes with a bird's-eye view."Enemy combatants have been sighted on the road, sir!" he relayed his findings to the captain, pausing momentarily in bewilderment. "Their numbers are..." he trailed off, his eyes scanning the terrain once more to verify the accuracy of his revelation.A low rumble of discontent
