Chapter 1892: A Talk With The Family
Their auras were much stronger than before, without a doubt, and they were also on the possession of some sort of new "presence" within their divine auras... I think my family must have also done some sort of contract with these Astral Guardians. If its through the system I can manipulate it, so it should be safe, Andromeda is there too. But even then, it was pretty surprising.
"You're finally back! We were done for quite a minute in here," said Miranda, carrying Drakda, who was already asleep. "This baby fell asleep right after we were done... Look, he's not even reacting to me even when I kiss his little nose."
"Hahaha, I guess he was very tired," I nodded. "He did a lot in the trial after all."
"Papa, you got super strong!" said Benladra.
"I can feel it," Kate said.
"Yeah, what did you get for your Class and Subclass?" asked Benladann. "At first I wasn't really trusting these Astral Guardians, but Andromeda told me it was safe as long as it was done within the system and not directly."
"Ah yeah, the one I choose is... Uh, rather interesting," I said. "I prioritized attack power above all other things. It's something called Dimensional Void Blood Gluttony... Technically, it's a passive skill that has made my blood incredibly lethal and destructive, maybe at the same level as the Demons, or more."
"Ohhh," Kate nodded. "Sounds strong..."
"We got ourselves a lot of new skills too, so many I just ended getting bored of reading so much text..." Benladra sighed.
"Alright, I guess we are all a bit tired," I said. "Andromeda, we're finally done, can we return?"
"Of course, let's go back. well done everyone," Andromeda said, as she teleported us back where we came from.
FLASH! FLASH! FLASH! FLASH!
After being absent for a day and a half, we arrived when there were only two more days left in this resting area before resuming the Inheritance Trial, and the incoming last trial of them all.
We still didn't know what the hell it was going to be about, but everyone was rather excited one way or another... Though for me? I wanted to rest and then continue growing stronger. Probably take a nap, mostly everyone is tired.
"You guys are finally back!" the first person to greet us as we went back to my Divine Realm was Fuyu. "You were almost two days gone, I was beginning to worry you would take longer... there's still two days and a half left, but if you had stayed longer, you might've missed the entire thing..."
"We would have never taken that long, Fuyu," I said. "Andromeda calculated everything really well. Right?"
"Huh? A-Ah! Of course... I calculated it," she nodded confidently, although she hesitated at the beginning.
Miranda and Benladann glared at her while squinting their eyes.
Could it be that she didn't actually calculate how long it would take us?
Well, the missions had a timing and all, so she definitely did!
Right?
Well it's done so whatever, it doesn't matter.
"Sorry about that though," said Benladann. "We must have worried you, Fuyu. We've grown very strong at the very least!"
"I-I can tell! Your auras are so potent..." Fuyu said. "I'm amazed. Perhaps now you've got a better chance against Pandemonium than ever before..."
"Yep, anyways we're tired," said Miranda.
"Oh right! I'm sorry for holding you back," she said. "Mostly everyone else is in the castle inside the divine realm. Nobody really wanted to stay in the resting area, they said it lacked space despite being as big as a castle..."
"I suppose it might have been the heat too, who knows," I said. "Let's go then. We should have some dinner before sleeping. Let's leave Drakda on his cradle."
We walked back to the castle and in the way we encountered Yuki with Pekora, Tisha, Ruby, and Rakasha, they were all working on their own Divine Abilities and Divinities, practicing constantly while also using skills to level them up.
"Ohh! Master! You're finally back!"
Yuki ran towards me instantly, jumping over my head and making me fall into the ground.
"Ugh! Yuki?! I'm fine, you don't have to jump on me like that!"
"Hehehe, I just wanted to annoy you!"
She giggled while licking my nose like a little dog would do.
"Haah... Get off already..."
I gently pushed her back, despite having a humanoid body she still acted like she originally was back then, I suppose some never change.
"It seems you're finally back, we were growing worried," said Pekora. "Your Auras! Y-You've grown so strong already?! So that trial that Fuyu mentioned was real..."
"Yeah, of course it was!" said Miranda. "We got ultra super strong. So we're going to beat the ass out of that Pandemonium fucker!"
"I'm glad you're in such high spirits..." Pekora smiled.
"Welcome back Drake, everyone," Ruby greeted them.
"Yeah!" Tisha nodded. "We were getting a bit worried, but it's nice you're back when there's only... barely two days left?"
"Well, this was a trial to grow stronger, so I doubt the time we spent was wasted," I said. "How have you been progressing so far?"
"It's been alright, but I wish I could level up these skills quicker," sighed Ruby, crossing her
arms. "Also only one seems stingy."
"The System is partial and equal to everyone," said Andromeda with a voice full of high spirits. "Anyways, will you join us for dinner?"
"Sure! I'm starving already!" Yuki said, raising her arms.
"Let's celebrate your return and growth in power," Tisha nodded.
"I agree, let's go," Pekora said. "Let me cook some dishes from my tribe."
"Uncle, are you coming?" Ruby called Rakasha.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
"Ah, yes, wait a bit," nodded Rakasha, as he was sitting cross-legged over the grasslands, concentrating.
He seemed to be meditating and cultivating his essences, he had many new energies after he became a Vampire and everything else.
His greatest struggle so far has been trying to find a middle ground for all his powers to
converge effectively.
And his Soul Titan Heart... it seemed to be shining brightly, he was infusing these powers into
it, its clear gray color changing.
I see, so this is the true purpose of why it's so colorless.
It's so everyone can shape and evolve it based on their own strengths.
