Chapter 210: Hint of the truth

What would a person do in a fight with an expert? Would they train before the battle could ever start, learn of their skill and way of doing? Some people tend to prepare the greatest set of items and weaponry but there’s a better option. In a fight that takes the life of the loser, you must bring forth a cheat-like power. You should bring a gun to a knife fight, for me I brought something equivalent to a nuke

“I call upon the wrath of Zeus!!!” He sacrifices the sacred power he collected and he activates the true form of his spell. Instead of a manifestation of lightning appearing in his hands, it conjures up a storm. The stormy clouds covered the entire field and it goes to flicker with a horrifying glow that shows the sign of impending doom

[System: The request has been confirmed… The amount of [Sacred power] matches the required power to activate the spell!!!

Outcome: The player’s spell has been temporarily converted from [Thunder manifestation] -> [Wrath of Zeus]

[Wrath of Zeus]: Manipulate the sky to your will and bring forth a stormy cloud that awaits the command of its caster. The number of stormy clouds the caster can spawn has no limitation though it’ll cost 1000 [Sacred power] each

Additional information: Even if the caster is within the vicinity there won’t be any sort of friendly fire and they’ll be immune to the thunder itself

[Stormy cloud]: One stormy cloud can sure up to 10 rounds of purely generated thunderstorms that deals 300 Sacred damage

[Sacred damage]: This is something that no such being can’t even imagine surviving due to its power. Any kind of protection spells will be nullified and any kind of enhancement on the body will be removed. The only way to dodge this attack is either possessing [Sacred power] to shield one’s self or possessing an evasion skill]

He snaps his finger and after a second had passed a massive surge of thunder came forth and struck his adversary. Before it could even reach Vandrakes skin its ability activated and nullified every single modification he applied. A loud noise came after the first strike when it travels through the battlefield and later frightens the nearby players. He fires off the remaining round and soon his area was filled with an overflowing dispersion of sacred power. The combination is defused and he stands before a land enriched with both his mana and chi

[System: Broadcasting has ended!!! The player has received the following tokens from his streaming: 30, 000 tokens, 7342 event tokens]

[I’ve never thought I’d seen it work… Y-You just made something outrageous, it’s a great thing that you have your disguise on. If not, then you’ll be hunted down by the end of your miserable life. But you sure are quite witty~ What is this??? It’s the same energy as before, Morris watch out!!!]

[System: For some unknown reason, the deity known as [The forgotten sage] has been ejected from your private broadcasting?

Status: You feel a strange surge of energy appearing on your blind spot]

He shifts his view and pulls out his blade but he was stunned by what appeared in front of his view, it was Vandrake? But when he tries to attack it was nothing but an image no more like his soul that appeared in his sight. When he thought it was nothing but a voice line being generated after his defeat he heard the ringing of the mysterious system

([Rewrite system: You’ve defeated ah anomaly!!! Congratulations on your magnificent feat author [Reborn flames] we will now move to your rewards

Rewards:

[Extortion]: Powers that are sickening to this world and things that not even the author knows about. With this skill, you’ll be able to store the power inside the [Rewrite system] where it can be safely contained

[Rewrite gauge 23%]: You can use this as a means of purchasing an item exclusively within the [Rewrite system]

[Revising]: You can now change the personality, beliefs, knowledge, or even erase the memory of a chosen character])

“It seems you’re finished gawking at your system, aren’t I correct Truth seeker? Oh, I see your expression tells me that you have no such clue about this whole ordeal. This is such a strange occurrence indeed,” Vandrakes words shocked him after he found someone else knew about his 3rd system

’System… Is he talking about the Rewrite system? How is that possible, I-I never blurted anything about this system. Why, why does he know about my mysterious system?’

“Hehe, you are clueless so that’s why you’ve never seemed to bother converse with me in our battle. Do you think im a hidden boss? Is that what those people have spoken of my existence? Hahahahahahaha, fool!!! We aren’t a part of your world, you who created this land and were sentenced to live in your creation that’s what a truth seeker is. I don’t know anything apart from this, I might have been corrupted. But never was I a sore loser take this information along with this as your reward,” His soul disappeared and he found an item in his resting place, and even if he denied the things he heard his system spoke of the truth

([Rewrite system: Some words that the anomaly are currently being deciphered…

Outcome: You who created this land and were sentenced to live in your creation that’s what a truth seeker is. The words have been confirmed that relate to the author’s transmigration. Because of this newly discovered information, you’ll now unlock one of the main functions of the system

New unlock function:

[Truth seeker]: What are the anomalies? Why am I here? Why was I sent here? Those are the words that spark the birth of this function and an important clue became a key for it to open. You’ll now be able to collect and easily detect anomalies or strange occurrences out of the range of your book]

days later

“So have you thought about it?” Hugo and his crew were standing beside the portal which will send them toward the third trial. In front of him was his friend whom he played with before in his time as a child. He asked him whether or not he’ll join him on his journey throughout this world

“Sorry to say this but I’ll pass. I don’t have any problems with you or your teammates but… I found my group, but hey I’ll lend you a hand if we ever get to meet each other. In the meantime, how about you survive this hell hole,” He raised his right arm and forms a fist, and places it on Hugo’s chest. Whilst these two were having the time of their lives, Morris was spying from afar

’So the system told me something about Erick, to summarize he died when he saved those three from an unavoidable danger. In his lasting breaths he smiled and he never once regretted his time with Sam and the rest of her crew. I designed Erick as n orphan and he lives his life with no one ever caring for him nor was there a person that shared their pain. Alone, he lived his whole life with no one else by his side and he came to gain his friend inside the vrmmo the world of trials,’

A small finger taps his back until he turns and sees the faces of his mercenary squad along with Erick’s crew. The finger that taps him belongs to a girl dressed in black paired with brown eyes that smiles when she sees his face

“Hey Morris, I have a question about your future vision thingy… Is it true that you can gaze into the future by sheer will? If not is there something like a trigger for your vision to appear?” Jenna’s expression has mixed with a smile and a hint of sadness after he asks this question

“This again…? For the last time, it only works if there’s an imminent threat that’s about to occur. I can’t simply activate that vision that would be a hassle and a shit ton of penalty so yeah it doesn’t work on command~ Hmmmmp!!!” Instead of throwing a lie or dodging her question by making up an excuse, he answered truthfully

With his reassuring words, she took him by surprise and grab his shoulders then pull him closer until their bodies touched one another. Jenna took the initiative before he could ever come to know of his predicament and before he knew it he received a passionate kiss. In broad daylight and in front of his crew members, to say the least, he was given a deep kiss. Jenna pushes him away and hides her face, for his eyes to get a look at her face that’s red as a rose

“There’s no doubt that it’ll be hard for the two of us to meet on this journey, I might die or it’s the other way around. Since I think this will be the only chance I got left, I decided to come and stand my ground… Even if you don’t give me an answer, I just want you to know that I love you from the bottom of my heart,” After that she ran away as fast as she could towards the direction of the portal and her crew followed her lead

His crew members were stunned whilst he was surprised when a girl openly confesses to him in broad daylight. None even mentioned the fact that she screams her lungs with all the air she possesses. Her voice traveled through his surroundings and a bunch of players are now gazing at a tall slender man. His body had gotten more and more developed and he was even entitled to be a sight to behold

’Man… Mysteries aside, im enjoying this life of mine, not the part about this whole ordeal but it’s okay. A new beginning must always come with a new love life to spur, but let’s face it. That’s not going to happen in the trials it’s best to remain single until the main trials are over you can’t even call this place safe. It’s a place of death and growth at the same time, im not sure what’s next for me but I’ll try to face it with all my might,’

[System: You’ve left the 2nd main trials!!! Your contribution points will now be calculated and you’ll be sent to the 3rd trials]
