Damien frowned but did not say anything. He knew that Flint was supposed to be far stronger than this. But then again, when they met, Flint was already a god, and it was years into the future.

The guy was still 18 years old now, and a newbie at best, when it came to godhood and the likes. Plus, he had yet to fuse with his inner consciousness.

"Alright." Damien said, then looked up. Flint also followed his gaze, and up, they saw a black cacoon suspended upside down.

Flint did not think much about Damien's doubt, and just brushed it off as his high expectations. But he definitely did think much about what he was looking at right now.

'Is that... a cocoon?' He thought, for the cocoon seemed to be made up of thick membrane and flesh, and at most parts, was scaly. It's black color only making it seem more... repulsive?

He thought, not being able to clearly pin his thoughts on what he was looking at.

Damien himself also seemed out of place as he stared at the creature. Unlike Flint, he had a Unique Skill that allowed him to see the truth of a lot of things by deciphering information out of them.

[Wisdom Eye (Unique)]

He used it, and obtained information about the target. And as a Unique Skill, used with more Mana requirements than usual due to the level gap, he obtained the information he was looking for.

Damien went through the Template, and was glad that it had no Skills. But with its League and incalculable Divine power, it could still easily play around with them.

"...You should go test it out." He said to Flint, who looked back at him in shock. "Me?" He asked back with a little starter.

Damien shrugged his shoulders and added, "You're just giving it a try. If it's too much, we pull back. And if by any chance, we do win, I'm willing to give you 50% rights of ownership."

"..."

Flint paused and took yet another glance at what he was about to go up against. He swallowed his saliva at the idea of fighting a god as powerful as this.

"It's not really a god." Damien said from the sidelines as if he was reading Flint's thoughts, the he added, "And, if you win, there's a high chance you will obtain another Mythical Epithet, and a chance of godhood. Think about it."

He laid out baits after baits, and the fragile heart of Flint could not take it anymore. He took a deep breathe, and walked deeper into the newly formed Realm.

"..."

Meanwhile, Damien watched with a null gaze. He had already prepared two teleportation scrolls for when the situation is definitely not on their side.

~~~

The Realm Guardian suspended itself upside down. It's sharp black claws grabbing tightly onto the sharp shard pointing downwards, growing on the ceiling.

It's eyes were closed, and it's breathe was held. From a far perspective, one would not tell that it was a living being.

"..."

It was an entity that was just born moments ago, not having any knowledge prior about the world it was born in, or anything about itself, nor its environment.

All it knew was that it was born within a miraculous land, that needed to be protected. And it's very purpose, was to protect the land it was born in.

A very simple notion, for a being just recently born. One might even say that, it made sense.

Hence it waited.

Protection was a simple job, yet from a different perspective, was also quite not that simple. For one can only protect when there was danger, or a need to protect.

Without danger, there was no need for protection, hence no need for its purpose. Yet danger came in all forms and sizes, and most importantly, was unpredictable.

And when there is no danger, did not mean that the guardian could be laid back. They had to always be cautious of anything around, for danger can appear at any given moment, and any given form.

Fortunately, the Realm Guardian did not have to wait for a very long time before danger arrived. It did not even have to wait a few hours.

"..."

It's eyes slowly opened, revealing a pair of dark red pupils that had no emotions contained within. None at all.

Following that, it spread out its arms, revealing a pair of wings so grand, they spanned for tens of meters in length, spreading out its glory.

Meanwhile, the danger itself was in the form of a red haired young man. He walked over cautiously, while admiring the size and grandiosity of the opponent.

He wore a red-black leather armor, that had illusory lava flowing within. He also had a pair of completely black combat gloves that sizzled with smoke as if frying his hands.

"Okay, Flint. You can do this. You definitely can." The young man hyped himself up, and prepared to face the attacks from a god.

The Realm Guardian loosened it's grip on the shard suspended on the ceiling, and flapped it's wings, creating a partial wind storm within the sky.

It's size was grand, though a bit repulsive, it was grand. It lowered its center of gravity, and landed a few tens of meters away from the red haired young man.

"..."

"..."

Both dragon and man stared at each other, vigilance and caution within each other's gaze. Yet one also had killing intent mixed within their gaze.

'This might take a while.' The young man thought to himself, as he decided he would take the lead and charge over first. After all, a stare off meant nothing here.

He kicked off the floor and charged over at super sonic speed, being hundreds of times faster than sound itself.

Boom!!

Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm

But the opponent was faster, as immediately when the sound barrier was shattered, was also when a large thick tail collided heavily with the young man.

'Urgh..!!'

He spat out a mouthful of blood at the collision, and his body was sent flying back like a baseball hit by a professional baseball player.

Bang!!

The young man flew through miles, and crashed heavily onto the wall, shattering it into web-like cracks that spread all over its surface. 'That hurt...' He thought.

His defense value was slightly over half a million. While the damage value of the opponent was four million units. Take into the effects of a second ranked Mythical Epithet, it would more than double to ten million damage value.

Hence the young man suffered a damage value of almost nine and half million. Even as a demigod, that was a lot of damage to take in, and still survive.

'First showdown, and I'm already battered up, and in a mess.' The young man thought, as he willed his Template to distribute some of his Ability Points.

He spent twelve points to maximize [Power Body (Extra)] and [Hell Flame Physiology (Extra)]. Then spent an extra twenty points to elevate them both to Unique Abilities.

[ Congratulations!! You have spent ten Ability Points to elevate <Power Body> to Unique Grade ]

[ Congratulations!! You have spent ten Ability Points to elevate <Hell Flame Physiology> to Unique Grade ]

With that done, he dumped in two hundred points, a hundred each, to max out both Abilities to the peak of Unique Grade, making them advanced Unique Abilities.

Then with his infinite Mana, he activated both Abilities, and decided that they would help increase his overall stats greatly.

[ Power Body (Advanced UNIQUE) :- An Ability that elevates the body of the target into that of a god. A body powered by the Universal Law of Power, increasing STR, AGI and END by one hundred and fifty times each, for a cost of over a thousand trillion of Mana per second or one thousand units of Divine power per second ]

[ Hell Flame Physiology (Advanced UNIQUE) :- An Ability that awakens the Physiology of a demon king within you, supported by the Heinous Laws, and increasing all Stats excluding AFF, by a hundred times each. Requires over a thousand Trillions of Mana per second or one thousand units of Divine power per second ]

The two of them together elevated his defense value by two hundred and fifty times. Hence going all the way up to over a hundred million defense values.

'Nice. Hopefully, I can last longer with this.' He thought, and once again charged towards the Realm Guardian, which now felt a slight threat coming from him.

Danger...

And danger, had to be eliminated!!

RRROOOAAAARR!!!

It let out a powerful roar of might and fervor, which kicked up a powerful storm that sent the young man flying backwards like a bullet.

Bang!!
