Strongest Grimoire Of The Gods

"Ack!" Hanzo suddenly exclaimed with a sour look on his face, "Shit!" He disappeared back into the portal.

Tyr stood there in confusion for a few seconds.

'What the...' He thought to himself inwardly.

And then, a hand popped out of the portal. Without delay, the hand gestured for Tyr to come closer.

"Why are you doing that?" Tyr asked, following the hand's command. As soon as the hand touched Tyr's chest, it grabbed him out of nowhere and pulled him with force.

Tyr was pulled through the portal and let go, causing him to stumble forward.

When he looked around, he noticed he was back in the mechanical portal room in the ice chamber. Only he and Hanzo were in here.

"You idiot!" Hanzo exclaimed at that moment, "Why didn't you come sooner? The skin on my hand was seconds from burning off!" He shook his hand in pain.

"Huh?" Tyr furrowed his brows for a second with confusion, "Oh wait... thats right, I totally forgot about the climate of Tarnish. I was using Full Golden Body for so long that I got used to Tarnish having a normal atmosphere."

Hanzo paused, and then smiled, "Well... welcome back buddy." He said with a genuine tone.

Tyr also smiled on hearing this, "Thank you, Hanzo... I was getting strong there, but Im also glad I can come back here."

Hanzo raised a brow on hearing this, "You were... getting strong there?"

Tyr quickly replied: "Yeah. Time went by 24 times faster than normal, and I was growing in power by the day naturally due to my Ancestral Ability, I think. I was also eating fruits sometimes that were packed with Aura."

Hanzo furrowed his brows, as though he was concerned, "Wait a minute..." He slowly made his way toward Tyr. He circled the young man several times while scratching his chin as he finally exclaimed: "You look different!"

Tyr's eyelid's lowered, unimpressed, "You noticed only now!?"

"Yeah!" Hanzo replied, "Way different. You're taller, and your muscles are way bigger. Your hair is also longer. It looks like you did age faster... and since its been a month... that means you have aged exactly 2 years.

You are 18 years old!"

"Mmhmm."

"When one gets his Ancestral Ability Awakening, they do get stronger in general. They also grow stronger simply because they have their Aura Core finally created, which goes in tandem with the Ancestral Ability."

Hanzo was still seeming to think about something as he surveyed Tyr, "So being inside of Tarnish is like a time chamber to gain power. But... how did you survive for so long?"

"My Full Golden Body. It allows me to negate all fire and wind damage, which are the two things causing the heated climate on Tarnish."

"I get that, but surely you didn't use it at all times. No, that would be foolish. Hmm..." Hanzo continued to think.

Tyr was a bit taken aback by this, "W-what do you mean? That's exactly what I did."

Hanzo didn't seem to hear this for a second. But then, he realized what Tyr just said.

He immediately looked at the young man with widened eyes, "You... did what?"

"I used my Ancestral Ability the entire time."

"Oh... well if thats the case, rest in peace." Hanzo exclaimed turning to the side with tears trickling down his face.

"Huh!? What are you talking about? Speaking of Full Golden Body, I should deactivate it now--"

"NO! Stop!" Hanzo exclaimed, jumping up and slamming his fist across Tyr's head.

"Ow!"

"Shut up! You fool! You can't just use an Ancestral Ability thats passive like that for so long!"

"What? But I had no side effects..." Tyr replied, clutching the bump on his head.

Hanzo shook his head, "Fuck... this is bad. Its not that you get side effects while the spell is continuing, you fool. It's like using a super powered energy pill or something... you feel great when you use it, but after it runs out everything you did hits you all at once and crashes your system."

Tyr's eye's expanded on hearing this.

Hanzo continued: "I've never heard of someone using their Ancestral Ability for a month straight... and I've seen people get ill for days after just using their ability for a couple days straight. And I've even seen some people get permanently paralyzed and have their Aura Core be destroyed from using their ability for more than a week."

"Oh shit... thats bad. Especially because I technically used it for 2 years straight..."

Hanzo's maw gaped slightly with realization and shock as he faced the ground, "What the hell are we gonna do now? Tsk... good thing we got you out as soon as possible. If not for that, maybe even a day more would have been fatal. It might even be fatal right now... but one more day would have been 24 more days technically."

"Hmm... speaking of 'we,' where are the others?" Tyr asked, seemingly ignoring all of these scares.

Hanzo sighed, "We decided to split up. If we all went the way we originally got here, all three of us might have gotten trapped until our last days in those ice prisons. Those two decided to go that way, and I decided to see if I could find a new way somehow... and I did. Good thing I didn't choose the ice prison as well, or else you would have been in quite some trouble."

Tyr placed his hands on his hip, "You know what... something tells me I'll be alright."

Hanzo's shoulders drooped with defeat, "You were actually an interesting, fun person. How sad to see you go." He stared at Tyr as he said this.

"W-wha--don't speak as if im already dead! Like I said, I will survive this. I have more goals now..." Tyr furrowed his brows, "Just tell me this, do you know what exactly hurts me after I deactivate this ability?"

Hanzo let out an exasperated sigh, "If it helps you find peace at your end times, I'll tell you what I know I guess... from my experience, I know that all the fatigue you build up from using your Ancestral Ability continuously comes back in the form of small Aura attacks on your Aura Core. Your Aura Core connects all parts of your body, and is the main function of your power."

Tyr nodded along as Hanzo continued to explain.

"Since you have been using it for 2 years, the attacks will be large and they will be plenty, and have a 99.9999999% chance to destroy your Aura Core, and also your body and brain at the same time through attacking your nervous system. Thats my estimate atleast..."

"Thats harsh..."

"Yeah."

Tyr smiled at that moment, "But if its like that, I think I have a chance to survive."

Hanzo sighed, looking up at Tyr's eyes. Out of nowhere, he was taken aback, 'That look... its the one that he has before doing something big... why does he have it now? Does he actually have a plan?'

"But before that, let's go free the other two." Tyr began to march out of the portal room.
