After bringing up a few dozen animals around the class 3 level, Iris quickly got used to finding and eating souls.But just a measly few dozen wouldn't be enough for her. She wanted not only more souls, but stronger souls. In fact, she told Dream that she wanted to try and get a class 4 soul.So after finishing up all the animals Dream brought for her, Luna and Iris left the station and flew down to where their parents were. They were close to leveling up, and with Iris's bottleneck broken through, they wanted to quickly get to their class advancement.Although Dream thought it would be nice to go with them, he actually had some things to do in the station, so he stayed.One of these things was checking out the two massive cores from the United Empire.After Dream had stolen the crystal heart, the entire United Empire was thrown into a bout of chaos. While the ordinary citizens didn't really care much about a drop in mana density, the higher leveled combatants did. Higher mana densiti
Meanwhile, as Dream was preparing his soldiers, Arrina and Mara were huddling together miserably in the corner of a prisoner cell.They weren't the only ones either. In just this cell there were over 200 people, and the demons had a dozen more cells just like this one. They herded them like sheep and didn't care at all about the fact that nearly everyone was wounded. If it weren't for the fact that there were a few healers in the cell, several people would've already died.Mara was one of these healers. In fact, she was one of the best. Because of that she was treated a little better. Not by the demons, but by the other prisoners. Instead of being cramped, she was given a bit more space against the wall where she could rest easier. And right next to her was Arrina.After receiving Dream's teachings, Arrina was able to rise in power quicker than she had ever expected to. She could cast spells with ease, learn sequences many times faster than her peers, and manipulate objects however sh
After Mara and Arrina were carried off by the bots, they were swiftly transported through the stronghold.Along the way, they could see the corpses of all the demons that had once guarded the pathways. There were hundreds, and almost all of them were class 3's. The girls were shocked, and they truly wondered how powerful these humanoids carrying them were.After many twists and turns they eventually ended up exiting the stronghold. They proceeded out into the wide open plaza, the entrance to which was a gate. And up in the air, they could see a shocking battle.The sky was blazing with dark bloody fire that blocked out the sun. The pressure coming from that fire was immense, though not as immense as the pressure coming from the people within that fire.They could see 10 people. 7 were demons, one was a fox, and the two others were human. The fox was the one bellowing fire, and one of the humans, a woman, was releasing ice lances from a distance at the 7 demons. In the middle of them w
Both girls were giddy as they showed off their liquid mana. Dream was also excited. Although he had seen them use it some during the battle, he hadn't been able to get a close look."Very cool! I can't say that I'm surprised though. You were already only a few levels away from both your advancement and skill maxing. If you didn't get liquid mana from that, I would be surprised.""I know, but still. That battle with the 7 demons was enough to get my level up, getting me to S tier, and those captives were enough to get my skill maxed. The liquid mana actually helped with maxing the skill, which was nice. And since Luna's skill has already been maxed, we're both good to go. Although...""What?""Well... Our advancement only allows one choice.""Really? I mean, I also only got one choice. Kind of. But I'm surprised it was the same for you guys. What is it?""Mine is called [Spectral Annihilator]. I think it's a nice name.""I guess it is kind of fitting. Luna?""Mine is [Spectral Familiar
After spending a few hours recovering, Dream got back to work.The particle dome and solid mana was only the first part of his plan. He had two more parts, both of which actually revolved around himself. If he wanted to help them, then strength and ability was his foremost guarantor.The solid mana that he made was actually going to be used by both himself and the girls. While he recovered, Iris had already done some tests and successfully converted the solid mana to her own, confirming his assumption that she could use it. As for himself, he was planning on enchanting his body using the solid mana.Putting it simply, he was going to form himself a core!While it's known as a core, as per Dream's plan, it was going to be a full-body enchantment. Not only that, he would convert the liquid mana pathways going from his body to soul into solid mana pathways. That's how Riddick described the advancement process, and while it was usually extremely difficult to pull off, Dream and Sophia alr
After Dream received materials and orders from the Red Eye Clan, he was quick to fulfil them all. In only a month, hundreds of powerful weapons were handed to the clan's most powerful combat force besides the highest class 6's. They were all constructed to specification, but their functionality far surpassed what any of the class 5's who received them could usually get with their wealth.Not only that, but Dream mass produced some standard weapons for the class 4's using the spare material. This flooded the clan with weapons that, while basic, were much better than the current equipment of the general class 4 population. Just these weapons increased the combat ability of the clan's military force by nearly 40%.That wasn't all. Come the second month of Dream's stay, an entire armada of ships were created. There were around 10 thousand, and they were divided into levels based on size. There were the flagships, carriers, and then the smaller corvette ships. The flagships numbered about
Melody watched the screens that showed the situation outside. Thinking for a second, she remembered that the ships her brother built were exceptionally fast. Knowing that they couldn't fight 8 class 5's, she turned to Durack."Hey, turn these ships around and run.""...We can't do that. I'm not sure if you can feel it, but they've locked down the mana in the region with a massive enchantment array. That's why our ships were stopped in the first place.""...Damn."Melody was silent for a second as she suddenly released her Will. After feeling the stagnant mana, she cursed. It looked like these people came prepared.The other two class 5's on the ship were also frowning. However, before they could think of anything, all the surrounding enemies suddenly started attacking. The thousands of high level class 4's all launched attacks at the ships, destroying them and releasing the people within. The Red Eye clan members who were caught outside all went to fight back, but they were overpowere
Dream raised his arms, his cosmic gaze locking onto the old man. The hellish aura around him spread throughout the battlefield."You call yourself death incarnate? No, this is real death. Gaze upon this horror. Death does not discriminate between good and evil, innocence or corruption, friend or foe. I don't know of the souls you have destroyed or your moral character. But I also don't care. You have threatened what's close to me. So whether now or in the future, I will bring real death upon you, and there is nothing you can do to stop me.""Y-you..."The old man stuttered as Dream took a step toward him. From the depths of his soul, he was dreading the aura that Dream released.Truly, this dark manifestation could be considered death itself. Even the ground below, originally covered with grass and vitality, had withered and died simply because of this aura. The only reason the armies of class 4's hadn't died as well was that Dream didn't will it.But this wasn't why the old man was f
