Chapter 26: Rewards
"We're home," the black-haired man said lightly, carrying a princess-like woman in his arms, Alice, who was sleeping soundly.
Possibly out of extreme concern, she didn't seem to be able to op her eyes anytime soon.
Theos placed his newly acquired weapon on a table and left Alice in the maid's room.
But Theos had only tak three steps wh he stopped. "What if she stays in my room?" he muttered as an idea began to form in his mind.
With this thought in mind, Theos smiled and walked up the stairs with Alice in his arms. After kicking the door, he tered quite naturally.
The room was spotless, as always, without a stain or speck of dust. Seeing the que-sized bed, Theos carefully placed Alice there, not wanting to wake her from her sleep. "You've be through a lot today, you must be tired."
He kissed her on the forehead, and she responded with a cute, unconscious smile. Theos left the room and wt back downstairs.
He picked up his new sword from the table and wt outside. "Did you call them?" he asked as soon as he came out to the dozs of people in front of him.
Each of them looked professional, with a suit and a strong, intimidating body, but under Theos' cold gaze, they were nothing more than ants.
'They must feel guilty for not being able to protect me' Theos concluded as he saw the expressions on each of the bodyguards in front of him. They all reflected disappointmt, anger at themselves, and most of all, fear at the thought of what might happ if Theos' father, and more importantly, his mother, found out that their son had be forced to go on a killing spree alone.
And they could do nothing about it because of the large number of hooded m who had blocked him.
Such a thought frighted the bodyguards, who immediately knelt before him. "Yes, Your Highness," they said in unison.
"Mmm, well, what did she say?" he asked, raising an eyebrow in curiosity.
"She said she'd be here in a few minutes with what you asked for."
"Well done, let her in…. You can go now." Under the cold night wind, Theo's hair moved in rhythm, while the darkness of the night further highlighted his glowing left eye, the crimson eye.
The guards' hair stood on d, along with the goosebumps, and they all dispersed without a word or a question, just…. They vanished into the darkness of the night.
Wh he looked at the moon since it was not a full moon, it did not look as beautiful, but the natural beauty of the moon was there.
Theos lost himself in the beauty of the moon; he had always be fascinated by the natural beauty of things, and the moon was no exception. 'The beginning of the novel is over, the first arc' he repeated in his mind.
'Status.'
[Name: Theos Von Fall.
Age: 7 years old
Path: Oblivion - ¿??
Race: Human - ¿?
Rank: Advanced Peak (By Proxy)
Skills: ¿??, Attraction of Heroines, Attraction of Hate.
Negative Mana: 4,0]
Theos could not be proud of himself as he looked at the state he was in. 'My power has increased more than tfold? This is too scary' he thought with pleasure.
Power would always be welcome to him, and the power he had gained on his first day as a transmigrant was to be applauded. 'System, describe the skill Hate Attraction' he ordered.
[Hate Vision: With its Eye of Oblivion, you will be able to directly observe negative ergy, perceive the aura of negative thoughts, emotions, and feelings of a living or non-living being, as well as expand your field of vision… You can evolve] the system explained.
Theo's smile wided… That's why he could see the aura of people's negative thoughts! It's the ability he received amid battle, possibly from continued exposure to so much negative ergy.
Such an ability is not easy. Its unknown range only proved that its limits knew no bounds.
'System, how can I develop this skill?' he asked with curiosity and excitemt.
[In order to evolve it, you need to use it constantly, gain an understanding of the skill, and gain at least 00,000 negative ergy].
"…" Wh he looked at the requiremts to develop the skill, he knew immediately that it would not be an easy and quick path. It might take months.
'I see, as far as my Peak Advanced strgth is concerned, it means that I have the strgth of a Peak Advanced due to my negative ergy, but that I can't officially be considered a Peak Advanced, right?' asked Theos, as a fan of the novel, he knew all about it, but as a living being in it, he had to confirm any doubts to get the most out of it.
[Indeed, host. Wh the path is awaked, which is usually wh you are born, that is wh you can train. Every rank, basic, intermediate, advanced, master, grandmaster, expert, supreme, and demigod.
In order to gain these ranks, you have to gain an understanding of your path, for each rank, you have to go up and up your understanding, each rank also has its requiremts, for example, to train for the advanced rank, you have to use your path as a form of aura], he explained the system, which despite being extsive, Theos resolved all his doubts at least in this section.
'It is similar, if not the same, as in the novel,' he said relieved, clching his fist.
'In the information of the novel, Theos couldn't use his Way and Ability until he turned 8 wh a big crack oped up in the seal.' Remembering all the information giv about Theos in the novel, he no longer felt calm.
'There are only one weeks until my 8th birthday, and one weeks and a few days to attd the Academy…', remembering the whole plot, Theos felt a headache.
But he had no time to rest, ev though he was extremely tired from consuming so much negative ergy. He still had to stand there and wait for that someone…. Who didn't take long to arrive.
"Hello, Ark… Oh, The Fall."
