Shuttling Between the Two Worlds

"To be frank, that barrier in the sky? It'll break disappear in 8 days."

"Your basis?"

"..."

Damn it. Every damn time I do this, someone doubts me. Yes, I do find it very natural, but I couldn't help but complain a bit when Red always gets their trust in a single talk.

"How about this? Everyone should stay here for 8 days first. We'll see to it later if what I'm saying is true or not. If anyone couldn't do at least this much.. You're better off outside the safe base."

Hearing this, Laurent seemed to have thought something in an instant. He looked towards some Demigods, perhaps his acquaintances, before speaking.

"Alright. Everyone would stay here for 8 days. What would you like to do is what you've said turns out to be true?"

"Leadership. When that time comes, I need you all to follow my orders, at least until we get out of this hell."

"If it doesn't come true?"

"Feel free to stay here. I won't kick you out."

I used some of my Heaven's Force to invoke the will of the world. With this, I created an oath, much to the surprise of others.

"A <<Sacred Oath>>? Thank you."

I left this huge corridor and went back to the core area of the inheritance grounds.

"Will this work?"

"Yes. This is the only way. After all, we'll end up dying if we don't seize that moment."

"Why is it so?"

"A Deity will come. I'm sure of it."

When the zerg's world will first invaded a new world, they'll put up a barrier around a limited area first. Then, the zergs would make a foothold that will connect them into that world.

Though, it's not only that. While they're making the foothold, the world will is in the process of analyzing this world. With that, it'll be able to grant the zergs immunity towards the invaded world's debuffs.

When that happens, the invaded world wouldn't be able to directly affect the zergs through probabilities; they wouldn't have any debuffs that will reduce their luck, strength, etc.

That's one of the reasons why the zergs aren't defeated by the super strong other world headed by my Master.

"A Deity.. We'll surely die. Unless.."

"Unless what?"

"We take a gamble and leave everything to a very unstable space crack that has a tiny-chance of survival rate."

"I see."

I replied as if I understood something.That should be the way we escaped in our previous life. Probability is truly a powerful thing. If I hadn't read about it in Master's "study", I wouldn't expect that it exists.

"Now.."

I went towards the other guest room, the room where Aria is still undergoing her transformation. Just like before, nothing had changed. The carpet, the lights, the bed, all are still clean. If there's something that had changed, it's Aria; the crack on the blood-red egg is getting bigger.

I checked her panel, and it looks just like before. Her ranks, traits, and potential is still the same. Only, there's a special note in the end.

[Note: Under a special state of Origin Power acceptance. Remaining time: 3 days, 8 hours, 42 minutes, 49 seconds.]

Thanks to the panel, I already knew that it's almost over. Though, I knew that she would've been able to finish this before the barrier disappears without looking at it just by inferring through their past lives.

"It's a long wait, but.."

I feel happy when I knew that I'll see her again. Perhaps, the memories of my past life that I received made me love her even more.

It's a very nice feeling that I haven't felt before.

***

I am inside the guest room right now. In my sight, the blood-red egg is full of cracks. This should've been how mine looked like from an outsiders perspective.

During these 3 days, I met with few other Demigods, whom are all introduced to me by Laurent. He is the only person who trusts me more than others based on my judgement. After all, I hinted on him quite a few times just how important he is to my plans.

Even though I'm not the one who'll throw away teammates like decoys, I need to make him think that he's of significance to my plan; trust is not won only after a few hours.

If he thinks like that, then he'll at least follow my instructions better.

[Note: Under a special state of Origin Power acceptance. Remaining time: 10 seconds.]

10,9,8.. 2,1..

The blood-red egg began flashing with white light. Then, it got absorbed into the white silhouette inside the egg.

The panel, which is in front of me, changed in real-time.

[Aria Frostdragon]

Rank: SSS+

Latent Potential: EX+

Strength: SSS+

Agility: SSS+

Stamina: SSS+

Vessel: SSS+

[Sword Mastery (LV10)]

[Eyes of Truth (LV8)]

[Parallel Minds (LV8)]

[Though Acceleration (LV8)]

[Multi-Attack (LV8)]

[Energy Box (LV7)]

[Light Control (LV8)]

[Fire Control (LV8)]

[Analysis (LV7)]

[Unparalleled Wisdom (LV7)]

Woah. She became even more amazing. In just a year's worth of time, she skipped 6 who realms, got traits comparable to an SSS+ Rank Combatant who's been out in the battlefield for years, and she even acquired the [Dragon God Physique] at LV10!

"What is.."

"Ms. Alina?"

"She inherited my [Unparalleled Wisdom]..?"

What is—

[Unparalleled Wisdom]

-The ability to analyze, learn, and apply knowledge skillfully. The holder of this trait is able to view things at a special viewpoint.

-The holder of this trait is able to see the best decisions at a single glance.

-The holder of this trait is able to receive huge amounts of information incomparable to others.

Oh shit.

I now know why she's that shocked.

"That's my only authority similar to <<Partial Omniscience>>.."

Just like what she'd said, it's a trait similar to partial omniscience. The keywords here should be 'The holder of this trait is able to receive huge amounts of information incomparable to others.'

It is natural that a single person could only sense a limited amount of information. The same goes on even for Deity Realm Combatants.

But with this, it's similar to a Domain Technique where one's senses would be sharper, allowing them to know more about their surroundings.

Only beings such as my Master has this; he has something similar to [Unparalleled Wisdom], the [Unmatched Wisdom King].

For short, beings that has this will most likely become the main characters of their worlds, defending them from any possible invasions.

As the scenes that I saw in the illusion flashed, I didn't become excited like Ms. Alina. Rather, I became more worried.

Why..? Why does she need to carry this heavy burden? I know that the world is doing this for the entire world itself. Still, complaints poured out from my mind.

I am selfish, that I know. Before I become stronger and have more options, I decided long ago that the safety of my family comes first; Aria included.

I began to think of new plans to prevent what I saw before. First...

"Lugh?"

As I heard her voice, my mind stopped thinking for a moment. Looking at her now golden eyes, I regained my composure. I forgot to activate my [Decisiveness], thus I lost my composure.

After hearing her voice, my previous worries and anxiety disappeared; what replaced them is my resolve. With my power and the panel's help, I am confident that I can turn my resolve into reality.

She looked at me for a while before she ran at me. I am surprised at what she did next.

Aria.. hugged me. This is the first time that we had a close contact. Even when we had our dates every 2 days, the most that she did is to cling into my arms.

For the me, who isn't experienced with things like this, I couldn't react quickly. Still, I hugged her back.

"Welcome back."

I said so to her. No matter what, I'll protect her and make her happy.
