Re: Player

What is a Realm?

Short Answer: An absurd power of the strong NPCs of the planet of Zarraf. Almost all Angel, Gods, Demon Commanders, Demon Lord, etc. possess them.

Long Answer: A power that allows you to create a space for your own self. Like how Quiena had that space where she could control everything, it was the same. It has 3 benefits and 2 downsides.

The benefits are:

(I) You can create anything you want in your realm.

(II) Your power fundamentally increases by 10 times in your realm.

(III) Even if you are killed in your realm, you can come back to life at least once.

The downsides:

(I) You have to give quite a lot of power to create it. It is enough to bring gods to the power of mere mortals if done wrong. So one should be careful about what kind of realm they want to create for themselves.

The more absurd the realm, the more power it consumes. That is why, often, it is better to go with a simpler realm.

(II) If you lose your realm by any chance, you will lose about 90% of the power along with that realm. It can happen if the being within your realm becomes strong enough to kill you multiple times, despite your overpowering nature.

[Adam's POV:]

Sitting on the throne as Neptune, I looked at the Sin of Lust, Iris, standing in front of me. The unconscious Angel Harik stayed on the floor without making any moves.

'So, how should I play this? Should I act weak or strong? Or perhaps an equal to the Sin of Lust?' I contemplated for a moment before looking at the time limit of the Quest.

[Time Left: 12 minutes: 5 seconds!]

'Let's prioritize the quest for now,' I thought as I looked at the Sin of Lust about to make a move.

[One Way Out: Agility Boosted!]

[Haste!]

[Greater Agility Boost!]

[Faster!]

[Quick!]

[Quicksilver!]

[Running Boost!]

[Boosted Dexterity!]

[Perfect Run!]

I then stood up as the time perfectly slowed down. Then, walking towards the Sin of Lust, who was slowly aiming at me, I smiled before observing her for a moment.

Then, walking beside her, I played the time.

"Pointing fingers? Bad manners," I laughed as she shrieked before immediately turning to me as her finger reached my forehead, point blank.

Time slowed again as I walked around her before reaching behind her and reducing my aura and presence a little.

And then once again I returned the time to normal.

-BOOM!!!!

The attack, which Iris did, contained a lot of power, as it destroyed the entire section of the hallway in a single attack.

With a slightly agitated look, she searched for my traces in the dust and smoke in front of her.

"Did you get him?" I asked as I whispered in her ear, making her turn towards me again. But once again, I moved from there, this time towards the angel who was about to be barbecued.

-BOOM!!!

Iris once again missed, but this time her eyes reached me without missing.

"Are we gonna keep doing this forever? Or should I just kill you and end this?" I asked her with my tone turning serious, making her gulp as she observed me.

'About 20 seconds left before most of my skills go on cooldown,' I sighed as I observed that angel, wondering how I should go about purifying him?

"Who are you?!!!" She asked with a rather shaky tone. Her previous haughty demeanor was gone completely, as she had her finger pointed at me all the time. Though I doubt she would have the guts to fire it one more time.

"Neptune. One of the Brothers of Salvation," I answered as I kept thinking about ways to heal him. Should I pour Angel Divinity into him? Or should I go higher and pour Divinity of a God?

"Neptune? Brothers of Salvation? What are you talking about?" She was confused, as she probably had never heard of either of the names before. But I am pretty sure she is going to hear those names much more frequently now. I'll make sure of it.

"Hey! What do you think would be better to free him of this corruption? An Angel's Divinity or A God's Divinity?" I asked, as I wondered if she knew something about it.

"Huh? What are you…" she then looked at me and that angel before realization dawned on her," Are you crazy? Unless he bathes himself in the light of the purest mana for years, there is nothing that could save him. Or the King of Gods pours his own energy into him."

"So it needs to be a higher divinity, huh?" I wondered if the divinity I possess after the [Mark] would be enough? It was given by a primordial, after all. Though I lack proper control over it…

"Yeah. So it's too late for him," Iris spoke, but I glossed over the [Quest!]. It was [Insane!] difficulty and not [Impossible!]. So that means it should be possible, right?

[Personal Space!]

Entering the space, I created a similar situation with Harik's body and then recalled a few ways of using God's Divinity that I learnt from Alepsia.

"All right. Let's try our best." I stretched my fingers as I began pouring my divinity into the artificial body of Harik.

-BOOM!!!!!

And an explosion occurred, killing both of us. Before everything was restored back to normal again.

And then I tried again… again… again… for 100s and 1000s of times.

Until I finally realized.

"It's not possible with my divinity. Or more like, the situation is too unfavorable," I thought with a rather unhappy face.

A proper comparison would be trying to stop a person literally 10 steps away from the 100 km finish line, from finishing the race while being at the starting line.

Theoretically, it should be possible if I become 100,000 times better, but realistically, I doubt that's possible even with all the time I

had until now.

"So… what should I do now?" I looked at that body of Harik with a puzzled look.
