Chapter 162: 162: Wronged
One common myth suggests that the Infinite Void is a repository of knowledge and wisdom, with the secrets of existence hidden within its depths. Seekers of truth and enlightenment are said to have journeyed into the Void to unlock these cosmic mysteries.
The Infinite Void has long intrigued scientists, philosophers, and mystics alike. Some rumors suggest that it may contain wormholes or portals to other dimensions, allowing for the passage to alternate universes. Others speculate that it conceals realms where different physical laws govern reality.
Scientists continue to grapple with the enigma of the Infinite Void, investigating its possible impact on the universe's ultimate fate. Although its nature remains elusive, its presence looms large in the cosmic consciousness. However, one thing is certain. It was the home of the nine infinite dragons!
"I'll be damned! Rekka, didn't know you had it in you... As expected of an heir of a high-ranking clan! Nice!" Kidd began to clap and gave Rekka a thumbs-up with a toothy grin on his face.
The dragon, Ryujin, stared at the members of team 5, and then its gaze stopped at Caleb for two seconds. A glint appeared in its eyes for a moment before its eyes came to a halt to Rekka and said:
"Master, my job here is done."
Rekka just nodded in return.
Following that, the mighty dragon that shocked the hearts of everyone present burst into a puff of smoke. Everything became silent. The vines had already turned to cinders. They are now safe, just like that.
"Cool..." Caleb took a deep breath. He didn't expect there's still such power here. This world is becoming more and more exciting for him! However, he wonders about something. He looked at Rekka and asked: "Why did it stare at me and pause for a moment?"
Hearing this, Rekka looked at Caleb listlessly. What could he say? He didn't even understand how his dragon works in reality. He only knows how to use them. Although he understood the origin and legends of his nine infinite dragons. They only act as a summoner and the dragons would help him.
"I don't know. How am I supposed to know what they are thinking? Probably he wants to eat you? After all, it's still a dragon."
Caleb: "..."
Rozho: "..."
"Dude, I don't really know how your brain works. I think you need to go to a psychologist to make sure you're okay." Kidd patted Rekka with sympathy.
...
The team five took a rest for ten minutes to replenish their energy. They didn't really suffer any further injuries thanks to Rekka's use of Nine Dragons Infinite. Though they still have scratches and bruises on their skin.
Caleb looked at Rekka, who had his eyes closed, lying on the ground dead-tired. It could be said that Rekka exhausted a lot of his energy in that one move. There are a lot of questions in Caleb's mind after he witnessed what legacy abilities could really do. He began to wonder. Why does Rekka's hair and pupils turn blue when using his abilities?
Since the first dragon, which was said to be the weakest of the nine infinite dragons, was already that strong. Just how strong are the other eight are!? He still hasn't forgotten that Rekka could use 1st to 3rd dragon currently.
'It seems I need to reevaluate this bastard's threat level on my zero list.' Caleb mused...
More importantly, since the damn bastard Rekka was already this strong. How strong was Gojo's seven-eyes legacy ability!? During the sparring sessions, Gojo was always reluctant to use it.
'I should not really underestimate these kids coming from high-ranking families.'
This battle this time had opened his eyes about Legacy Ability. The question now is... How to get one? The nature of Legacy Ability was quite easy to determine. They are abilities that come from a special bloodline of a high-ranking family. How do you still have an ability that comes from DNA or genes itself? Such a project was too complicated. He was no scientist.
Well. if he lives long enough. He might become the greatest scientist there is in the omniverse or multiple planes since he was practically eternal. However, that was for the future. Currently, his level of science was just that of college level and not even on top of that level. Now, he realized that it was important to study science and other subjects such as maths once he reincarnates again in the normal human world.
'Damn it. It seems there's no way to steal a Legacy Ability... Fkc!' Caleb sighed. Such awesome abilities. Why can't he get them?
Well, if he was just a geneticist, there may be a way. The problem is, he's not...
As he thought of this, he picked up the map on the ground. They are already near their destination. "Guy, let's go. It's time to work!"
Rozho, Kidd, and Kazuto nodded and began to sort out the items beside them. Rekka, on the other hand, opened his eyes in a daze. "We're gonna leave already? Can we extend the rest to another five minutes?" He gave Caleb a puppy eyes.
Fuck! What a bad day to have eyes! My eyes, goddamn it!
Caleb couldn't hold it back any longer. He threw a kick, accurately hitting Rekka's damn nose.
Rekka: "Ouch! What was that for!?"
He said while holding his bleeding nose with an aggrieved face. He just wants to rest longer. What's wrong with that? He felt wronged.
Caleb's mouth twitched. "You sullied my eyes. You're not fucking cute to do that. You're a man! Understand? Or do you want another kick?"
"No, thanks." Rekka stood up while patting his dusty butt.
After the short scene. The group continued their mission. They were attacked by various plant life along the way. From a behemoth sunflower which has a huge mouth filled with thorny green venomous teeth akin to a meat grinder to mushrooms that would charge at them and would suddenly explode into violet miasma. Kazuto inhaled it once and they had to wait for fifteen minutes before he could move his body again.
