After talking things through with Ludeus, he told me that he would arrive in two days because they had to clean up some things and store their troops safely before arriving at the elf capital.After finding the superior gravity tower in the upper city, I only sat there on the highest floor, meditating amongst the highest gravity the tower could produce.My body needed some highly dangerous environment to quicken the adaptation period, so I could grow stronger once again. I have burned through quite a lot of the energy I absorbed from Sahrona when I fought the five elite bodyguards, but I still had some left in my body, and the gravity helped me absorb it very very slowly.The moment my body adapted slightly, some of that energy would seep into that point and strengthen it for a very minuscule amount.Time slowly passed and those two days went by, and before I knew it, I woke up to Ludeus's face appearing in front of mine.He was a little bit too close for comfort, and the body he was
The third eye on my forehead felt rather sore for some reason, and before I knew it, some information from my brain left and entered the eye directly!The eye felt like it was on fire for a few seconds as I unconsciously closed it. Ludeus came closer to me and nodded before patting my shoulder once again and saying:"Didn't you have a hard time because your oracle ability was cut off in here?"I didn't tell him about that... How did he know?Seeing my puzzled expression as my third eye finally settled down, he started explaining:"The reason I gave you your third eye is to improve your oracle ability without having to teach you anything, since you wouldn't be able to learn it anyways, I gave you an outlet for your oracle ability that can't be interfered with."I opened my third eye as Ludeus did a demonstration for me, I could see a silhouette that resembled Ludeus behind him charging an energy ball sneakily, so I immediately dodged to the side preemptively, making Ludeus miss."And t
After Ludeus killed the 20 elves and made them his subordinates, we left the underground mining area and started to wander through the base middle city. I would occasionally use my new third eye to get used to it and improve my resistance to the slight side effects. I wasn't sure why we were wandering under Ludeus's invisibility veil, but soon enough I got my answer: "Minato, it's time for us to leave, appoint someone from the blood elf tribe as the leader of this place, we have to talk with the others from the north continent about the invasion, and I would like for you to be by my side during the meeting." I didn't have any attachments to this place, so I met up with Sikaw and the elders before telling them the truth, and introducing them to Ludeus. At first, they didn't believe it, but Ludeus could be quite persuasive, and his strength was so far above Sahrona's that even if they didn't want to be subsidiary subordinates to him, they couldn't refuse. After that, I appointed Sik
Ludeus clutched his head as he felt weakened, but he didn't drop to the ground in front of the demon, he stood still for a few seconds and chanted some words, creating a fire and wind barrier around his body that protected him from the influence of the demonic being.I was paralyzed by the same influence, but a little bit of Ludeus's barrier came my way and resuscitated my body from its stasis as I started to take in deep breaths.The face on the centipede's head rose its eyebrows as it looked at Ludeus and said:"Fire Church Maiden bloodline of the Fire God, 60% awakened, pure Wind God techniques and an excellent soul."With one glance, it saw through all of Ludeus's secrets, but Ludeus kept his face serious as he said:"Tell me the contents of the mission that Minato has to go through. If it's something way above his current strength, I will refuse, regardless of what you say or do!"A chuckle came out of the small face's mouth as it continued:"How cute, you still think you can do
I started by attacking with a feint and appearing in front of the wraith afterward, but my hands went directly through him!Shuria shook his head as he looked at me and pointed two fingers at me. I could feel three daggers being impaled in my chest as I coughed out nothing. Since we were in my mental place, there was no blood to be coughed here, but I felt that the surroundings started to shake after I had taken those spectral daggers to the chest.Which meant that my mental palace would break down if my apparition here was damaged too much, I wasn't sure if the wraith would be free if that happened, but I didn't want to find out.I concentrated on my energy and sent it to my soul as I charged an elemental ball that I threw at Shuria, only for him to snort as he taunted:"Elemental energy against an elf? Your technique lacks any finesse, it's so basic that even a 5-year-old elf would be able to do better!"He deflected the energy ball, but what he didn't expect was for a bunch of dark
After I lost consciousness, my soul wandered for a while before Ludeus connected me with the wraith's mental space, making me appear in the same foggy place just like before.This time around, there were many cracks in the sky, and I could feel that the sun behind it was slowly poking its head out.I wasn't sure if this meant the wraith was getting weaker, or stronger.I concentrated my energy, to scan the surroundings, and I found Shuria skulking on the ground, seemingly not realizing that I have connected to his mindscape once again.He was pretty weakened, and I could feel that there was also something wrong with him, which was the best situation for me.I stealthily approached him from behind as I thrust my hand through his chest, grabbing ahold of his heart and squeezing it tightly, this should be the place where his true soul lay.However, an electric current mixed with a toxic sharp breeze hit me from the front as Shuria's neck moved until his head faced me, even though his bod
I nodded at Ludeus's question and said:"I have complete control over the wraith now, I have gained all of his techniques, and I'm ready to go, shall we?"Ludeus immediately created a cloud beneath our feet as we soared up through the trees in the swamp before making our way toward the Duramato continent border.The speed we used was as quick as the one that took us to the swamp, and it didn't take us more than three hours to arrive at the border.Nothing was separating the human continent from the orc's continent, mostly because the orcs never showed signs of invasion, and secondly, the humans thought that even if the orcs invaded, they didn't need to separate the continents with any defensive wall that would take tons of resources because they thought that the orcs wouldn't be strong enough to get past the defensive region which we passed the way to here.It was pretty dumb, but humans were very lax these days, the Churches warred amongst themselves, so they didn't have time to thin
I snuck amidst the unconscious bodies of the drunk orcs as I made my way through their village, getting closer to the seemingly older orcs who had many battle scars on their bodies.I approached one of these old orcs and grabbed him by the head as my skin glowed a soft grey-silver and I woke him up as the wraith went to work, dominating his weakened will due to the alcohol that was running rampant through his body, making him my puppet in no more than two seconds.The elder orc did wake up, but he was still drunk,"*Hicc*, who is this? Master?"He also seemed to be slurring his words as I gave him a tight slap and created some elemental water energy that I splashed his face with, making him slightly sober as he fell onto one knee and said:"New master, good master!"His vocabulary was somewhat limited, but I understood what he was saying, when I questioned him about the whereabouts of a war chief, a scared expression overtook his face as he said:"I.. Warthog doesn't know where war ch
