In other words, no matter how high or low one's mana was, to go to the next rank, one had to be able to carry a much greater load than before. She had to have twice as much mana as she has, to be able to breakthrough. Which was why, being born with high mana, will lead to having higher mana for the rest of your life, unless you're truly unfortunate. Though ranking up would be tough, in the short run it was disadvantageous, but in the long run, it was advantageous. Higher mana meant more god slaying artifacts one can use, and the longer they can use them too. Noelle couldn't be much happier with the increase in her strength. But Mimi's words made her hold her breathe for quiet a while in shock too... divine weapon, or rather, a god slaying artifact. Booom!! Mimi didn't hold back in creating a deific artifact. Well, it was crudely made, considering that she was only tempering an ordinary blade with 500 units of faith points (one million units of divine power). But even that was not
《...That's about enough learning, you've reached your daily quota》 "What daily quota?" Enigma retorted questioningly. But truthfully, he didnt even want to know the answer, as he knew why he was stopped. 《Apologies, I meant yearly quota》 The system changed its words, and Enigma had hunched that the more he defied the system, the higher the quota will rise. Thus he opted to just keep quiet. "You're really serious about this aren't you?" He sighed and decided to accept his fate. He was good at doing that anyway. 《....》 Enigma feigned reluctance as he agreed to the system's words. But before he could finish his own sentence, "...Fine, I was about to—" Tzzz A unique buzz occurred within his head, that disrupted his words, shutting up instantly. "Huh? What was that? A spiritual link? With the Pixies?" He paused then frowned as he wondered why would those guys contact him only three weeks after leaving him. They couldn't be in danger right? "Uhm, hello, who is this?" He decided to
The final product, I mean, the final form of En-one was that of a 10 centimeter tall Enigma, with a little bit of chubbiness. He had a small pair of feathered gray wings, two small humps on his temples and a tail that could barely be seen. It was a unique specie never before seen. 《What... exactly are you making?》 The system couldn't help but ask. At first, it thought he was making an angel, then a fallen angel, then a demon. But by the looks of it, it was niether of the above. "I have no idea." And it seems even he was unaware of what he was creating. This was all an experiment after all. And he just let nature, his imagination, take its course. 《....》 "...." "Da...da..?" En-one looked up at Enigma and softly asked. Enigma was not ready to accept another child, three were already enough. So he expressionlessly responded; "...No." 《....》 "...Well that's that, lets move on to the subsidiary skills I've recently learned." He smiled and tried to brush over the topic, but the sys
Middle RealmDesolate Region, Sumerian War God's Stronghold Everything was burning down in flames. The stronghold was burning so fiercely that, even the Sumerian water-type gods could not be able to put it out. Demon Fire. One boy stood on top of a hill, watching as everything burned down to the ground. He was late, very late. He sighed softly and handed the long weapon towards the lady beside him. "Xue'er, hold this for me, I want to go search for anyone alive down there. Especially uncle Xavier or uncle Fred." The boy said lightly and jumped down the hill without giving the other person time to respond. He easily crossed the one kilometer distance with just a leap. Appearing within the flames in an instant. The flames then swallowed him and obscured his presence away from the one lady and ten monkeys behind her. "Godfather..." She couldn't help but sigh when she saw her god once again do something reckless. Her name was Su Xue, a name bestowed by her god, Su Han. She and the h
"Com'on dude, it's only a one night stand." The man standing besides Xavier spoke, his tone jovial and free of worries. Unfortunately, his words were a bit too... "I don't swing that way, give me a break." Xavier, spoke even though he did not want to, nor know what what say. Everything was just following the same process as before, but with his consciousness from the future hidden within. "It's only today. We have been fighting for days on end, and as a commander, you aren't really planning on dying a virgin are you? I mean look, who would respect you? "Picture this then... would you, let us say you okay, would you, respect a man–— no, listen to a man who tells you to go to war, but aren't courageous enough to pop his cherry?" The man besides him, who seemed to be of the same age as Xavier, appearance wise, spoke with an enticing tone. "....." Xavier was left speechless. Logically, that should not make sense. Not at all. But if you were a commander, and your subordinates could do
A much louder explosion kicked off, as following that, was something so vast, it resembled a small sun appearing within the sky. And accompanying it was immense demonic energy. "DEMONS?! F*CK!!" The man's voice rang out within the explosion of immense flames and demonic power, and along with his words, the fire from the small sun spread out to protect the whole city. But because of that, the man was left bare to tackle the immense demonic power that could seemingly devour even the whole world. "FREDRICK!!!" Xavier paused and tried to run back to his best friend and brother, but right at that moment, the immense flames cloaking the whole city, turned from orange-yellow to pure red. "....!!!" And the thing that followed, was the flames falling towards the city and coveting everything in nothing but red. • • • • • Within the CloudsInter-dimensional Plane Xavier finally recovered the memories of that moment that he did not remember. Unfortunately, they only ended there, as he was
He still could no believe any of thus. Especially how he lost a friend and a god niece, while at the same time, became an angel, one that succeeded a terrifying monster. Happy? Sad? He dud not know at this point. Everything was too surreal. And he had a mission that he dud not know how how complete at all. "....." "....." ~~ Red. That was the color that defined the soroundinf city after everything that occurred moments ago. Be it the Demonic fire that spread everywhere and was devouring the land as we speak, or the blood that flow along the pavements like crimson rivers. Be it both, they each painted the city in a color of red that was unique in its own right. Yet one thing that was felt by anyone alone, when they saw such a mess, was dread. Endless dread. Pure fear. Because tens of millions had died, in just a couple of minutes. Millions of beings, ranging from Saints, to the weaker commoners that could no even do anything to resist. Everyone was wiped out. But one man
"Xue'er, everyone, it's time for us to get stronger. Strong enough to avenge uncle Xavier and uncle Fredrick of the injustice delt to them." Su Han said to his fellow monkeys. "Raaa!!!" "Whu!! whu!! whu!!" "Ah!! Ah!! Ah!!" "Yes, Godfather~" And they all responded in excitement and anger, as they could feel the pain in the voice of their chief. Su Han smiled, genuinely at that, as his devilish charm increased. "Let's goooo!!!" And with that, he led his entire clan back towards the Desolate forest, to first conquer it, before planning on challenging demons. He was simple, yet not stupid after all. • • • • • Middle RealmGreen Continent, World Forest Lulu stood above a tall tree and looked down on the newly made structure of the village. Though it was called a village, it already had almost 7 000 residents inside. The structure was quite simple to be honest. The village was sandwiched by the cave up north and the Green River down south, but the space in between was still very
