The Rise Of Calamity

[Congratulations! You have successfully comprehended -Divine Flames-!]

[Comprehension is being forcefully suppressed by the heavens due to not having entered the Astral plane yet]

[Your title -Transdimensional-migrator- has been activated]

[Supression unsuccessful]

[Your understanding of divinity grows more powerful by the day...]

[System notice: An unknown bloodline is awakening from deep within]

[Notice: Due to properly unlocking an astral tier affinity, your understanding of divine lightning has grown.]

[Congratulations! You have successfully comprehended Divine Lightning]

[A few of the Gods have taken notice of you]

Seeing all these different notifications, I was quite shocked. So far I had thought that I had already comprehended using divine energy with my different affinities but that was simply not the case.

'This feeling... It's different from when I used divine lightning before... No, it's completely different... It's different from when I added gluttony to my flames too. This feels a little more... How do I say this...'

[Natural?]

'Yeah... How did you know?'

[That is what it is supposed to feel like. You awakened the divine affinity but had been stuck in a world where you can rely on the planet's man- I mean, the planet's elemental energies instead of forming it yourself]

'So you are saying that this whole time, I could have just formed my own elemental energies?'

[Looks like all that intelligence you got from your divine enhancements is finally catching up to you haha. Yes, but rather than you forming elemental energies yourself, it is more like your divine mana is imitating it. You don't get to make your own energies until you're in the astral plane haha.]

After hearing what she said, I paused for a second before thinking back to a few situations, yet I still could not fully wrap my head around the idea.

'But... I can breathe in elemental energies, right? And they enhance my body. Why can't my own divine mana do the same thing.' I asked.

[That's the thing... It can do the same thing. When you use your breath of eternity, it automatically uses absolute consumption and starts absorbing anything around you that can be turned into energy, no matter how powerful or weak the energy is. This includes any time of radiation, mana, elemental energies, other chemical energies, and even some physical ones. It doesn't work on all physical energies but that is beyond the point.]

'Isn't that kind of OP?'

[You're telling me!? Ugh... Forget it and fight the next 10]

'10?' I asked but quickly remembered where I was.

In the same instant, I watched as the gates opened and 10 squirrels started coming out.

Seeing that there were going to probably be more than enough creatures for me to kill here, I chose that this place would probably be the best place for me to practice fighting with my new affinities.

Clenching my fist, I thrusted it forwards and created a lightning bolt within my fist, shooting a hole right through the dog-sized squirrel that was about to lunge at me.

I did the same thing with the rest of them and within just a few seconds, I had already killed them all.

Taking in a deep breath while using the breath of eternity, I quickly felt like my mana was being replenished at an extraordinary speed, but not as fast as it would have back on Solaris.

'This is amazing... Wait, would this mean that I would be capable of living on a planet like Earth without worrying about running out of mana?'

[Oh my god... You are finally using that brain of yours! Yes, even though I didn't tell you that Earth had very little mana, you still realized it yourself.]

'Why does earth have little mana though?' I asked while simultaneously creating a teardrop-sized flame and shooting it at one of the squirrels.

The flame itself began to move like an entity of its own, burning the squirrel I had thrown it at into a crisp before jumping to another, burning it and repeating the process 13 more times.

Before Hela could even answer my question, the flame had returned to my side, this time floating around me like a tennis-ball-sized wisp with its own mind.

'I don't remember this happening before...' I thought. Seeing that it seemed to have its own mind, I decided to try out something.

Stretching my hand outward and towards it, I implanted a bit of gluttony energy within it.

The moment I did so, I watched as the golden-flamed wisp got a whole shade darker while the middle of it shone with orange light.

'Interesting...' I smile but at the same time, Hela began to explain why Earth had so little mana.

[Well, the thing is that almost no one knows why Earth had such a small amount of mana. Everything pointed at there once being a surplus of mana to the point where it might have even been hundreds of times more than Solaris, even in the places that naturally had less mana than others. The only theory that could be drawn was that the planet had "Died" a few hundred million years ago but that was still a theory]

I listened carefully to what Hela had to say, yet I couldn't help but pick up on something that she said, or to be precise, the tense she was speaking in.

"You keep talking in the past tense... As if you were on Earth and had been researching this yourself... Why?" I questioned aloud with narrowed eyes, yet this did not stop me from attacking all the squirrels that were lunging at me frantically.

[I cannot answer that question]

'Why...'

[Because, I simply cannot. It is part of the protocol]

'What protocol?!' I inwardly shouted, yet all I got in return was complete and utter silence.

"I see how it is." And as if those words were the chanting of a spell, all the squirrels around me turned into ashes as the golden flames burnt through their very beings, making them into nothing but piles of cremated creatures.

[The tenth wave shall no commence] The AI voice spoke, causing the one gate that hadn't opened so far to slowly crack open before sliding upwards, letting the absolute monstrosity of a squirrel leave its den.

'Ugh... I feel like showering and it hadn't even looked at me yet, even less, it hadn't even touched me yet.'

However, before I could even do anything, I watched as my tiny little willowing wisp shot towards the squirrel opened its jaws that were created out of pure flames, something I didn't even know it could do, before shitting it and in the process ripping off the head of the squirrel.

[A new contestant had now joined and is taking part in the arena.]

[The eleventh wave shall not comence]

...

...

[The forty-ninth wave shall now commence.]

After getting through the next 38 waves, I had finally reached the 49th one and was now waiting for the next thing to attack me.

[The forty-ninth wave had been halted.]

[Analysis complete!]

[The contestant has divine energy!]

[Attempting to find more information about the contestant...]

***

Within a dark space where the world seemed to be crumbling sat a little girl on a large throne, seemingly relaxing as if the rest of her domain didn't look like it had been ripped out of a castle.

Suddenly, the little girl opened her eyes while the shadows that were shrouding her entire body like a dress seemed to flicker for a split second.

Since she was using the throne as more of a bed, her legs were on the armrests of the throne while her head lay on the other armrest.

In front of her was a screen showing what looked like a game that would have been seen on Earth, but rather than playing it, it looked like she was watching it.

When her shadows had flickered, she looked to her left and found that something was trying to infiltrate her domain, causing her to knit her brows and sigh.

"This again? Can't she give me a break?" She asked herself as she clenched her fist and the disturbance disappeared.

Without skipping a beat, she looked back at the screen floating in front of her and began to watch someone play some kind of game once again as if something hadn't just tried to enter her very own domain.

***

[Further analysis of the contestant had been forcefully canceled...]

[Due to not being able to find more information about the contestant, the contestant shall have the choice of fighting a divine being at the contestant's current cultivation level]

[Do you accept?] The AI asked, making me raise a brow in suspicion.

'Did you-' I couldn't even ask the entire question as Hela immediately answered-

[No...]

'Then what woul-.' Again, it did not seem like I could finish my question as Hela immediately answered once again with-

[The protocol states that no one should find out about your origins... So it is almost impossible for anyone to analyze you the same way you do to others] Hela explained, causing me to sigh in frustration since I didn't really know what this protocol was.

'Forget it!' I thought and quickly answered the question the AI had asked me.

"Yes, I accept"
