Chapter 126 Change



In the following minutes, Nial, Bella and the bulky man named Shiraq sent back Yves and Mathias.

They were utterly exhausted as they had used every single trace of the mana within their body while activating both their ability and Innate ability at once.

When they returned, Nial and Bella got to know that Shiraq had a unique physical condition.

[Gigantus Strength] was what his condition was called. It would permanently increase his strength, and allow him to become the most powerful in terms of brute force.

This allowed him to easily wield a mace that weighed more than 100 kilograms that could be easily bashed on the head of his opponents and crush them.

But he couldn\'t simply bulldoze his way through the opponents as his stamina was not endless, which was why he was happy to have received a short break from fighting when the wall of earth and net of vines and roots had been constructed.

By quickly scanning Nial and Bella\'s mana fluctuations, Shiraq couldn\'t tell exactly gauge their true power in terms of physical strength, but their presence was quite intimidating.

At least others would feel intimidated around both of them.

Feeling quite comfortable around the two young Originals who could clearly take care of themselves, Shiraq quickly gulped down a few potions.

They invigorated him and healed some shallow wounds the beasts he fought had inflicted on him.

Nial and Bella drank some potions as well and decided to catch up on their breaths while observing the earthen wall.

Moving along the wall, they chose to stay at the spot where most of the earth crumbled.

Seeing this, Shiraq smiled faintly.

He was increasingly feeling good about being with the two Originals as they appeared confident and the more he saw them, the more he was inclined to just tail them without saying a single word.

"Seven out of the 43 stronger mana fluctuations dispersed. It should only take 20 minutes before the remaining Dungeon bosses and Rare beast bosses have been killed!"

When Nial suddenly said this, Bella just nodded her head, while Shiraq wondered how the young, blind Original had figured this out.

If he were to know that Nial focused the [Mana Perception] ability to learn of the situation in front of him, which would allow him to scan everything ahead, the young man would probably be astonished.

And that was without adding his other senses as they were currently rather distractive instead of being helpful.

Sensing the vibrations within the cave, in addition to smelling the dirt, blood, and sweat of the soldiers around him as well as hearing everything at a much higher sensitivity than anyone else was certainly not something Nial wished for anyone to feel.

Thus, he had to quiet down after the few words he spoke, feeling as if he would vomit if he were forced to breathe in the surrounding air through his mouth.

Brandishing the Viper spear around him, Nial calmed himself before he sensed the approach of a large beast.

It was about to ram into one of the crumbling parts of the wall.

When he saw this, Nial quickly changed his stance and pierced out the moment the Rhinoceros\' tusk pierced right through the wall.

With a precise thrust, the Viper spear reached its designated target at the perfect time.

While the head of the Rhino penetrated through the wall, the mana-coated tip of the Viper spear reached the unprotected part between its neck and head.

It was just a small gap that was not shielded by the heavy armor that protected the large beasts, but Nial hit it perfectly.

Thus, the moment he retracted the Viper spear, the Rhino died on the spot, leaving behind a faintly gleaming Origin crystal.

Shiraq, who had already been ready to attack the same Rhino couldn\'t help but take a second glance at Nial.

\'He sensed it before me…His reaction speed is nothing to scoff at as well. Not bad!\'

Even if Nial\'s background might not be extraordinary as he had never heard of a blind prodigious male Original from the younger generation of the large families, Shiraq felt that this was completely unimportant right now.

Nial was certainly one of the strongest participants of the Teradan military camp, and that was the case even though he was only at the 3rd Origin rank and blind.

This realization led Shiraq to be even more motivated to give his utmost to become stronger.

He was ready to fight with more vigor than before, and this was certainly necessary.

After all, the earthen wall was crumbling, revealing the horde of innumerable beasts that were pounding on the wall in order to go through and stomp on the humans.

Being fully prepared, everyone began to circulate mana through their body before activating various abilities.

Instead of letting the chance go by, the short momentum in which the earthen wall fell had to be utilized properly.

With that in mind, their next slew of attacks killed several hundred beasts at once as the Soldiers at the Prym rank were able to overpower the ordinary beasts.

​ Having recuperated with the use of potions, the Soldiers were ready to fight with all their might.

Because of the overflowing vigor and high morale of the Soldiers, the closer combat fighters with great abilities to hold the defense line at the front stepped ahead.

Meanwhile, the spear wielder and mid-range fighters used the small gaps between the front fighters to kill various beasts, only for the long-range fighters to do exactly the same.

On the other hand, the Soldiers with elemental affinities or supportive abilities acted as a means of support in the areas that required the most help.

As such, once the following minutes passed, the human soldiers gained an upper hand.

And this was mostly owing to the fact that the dungeons that broke out were mostly closed.

While the temporary dungeon portals had closed already, more and more dungeon bosses had been defeated, ending the dungeon break of permanent dungeons.

Making use of their advantage, the large-scale battle seemed to have reached its climax.

This was great, and both Nial and Bella didn\'t even have to use their runic armaments in order to survive.

They moved swiftly between a high number of various types of beasts that wanted to escape the narrow and gloomy cave at all costs.

However, while evading the beasts, the two of them didn\'t even think of showing any mercy as they pierced, slashed, thrust, hacked, and slashed at their opponents if necessary.

Fighting close to each other, their surroundings were soon overflowing with the corpses, intestines and blood of dungeon beasts.

This created an additional layer of obstruction to the dungeon beasts that could only rush in one direction.

Owing to this, the difficulty to evade fighting against the powerful Soldiers, or intimidating young Originals increased by a thousand times.

Forced to fight, the dungeon beasts became more desperate, which only worsened when they sensed that the strongest of their kind were actively hunted down.

Everyone was exhausted including the dungeon beasts, but nobody wanted to die.

Thus, desperation was overflowing in the large cavern hall.

However, it was exactly this desperation that seemed to nurture Nial, providing him with excitement, with the necessary energy to push him ahead, and to force him to exceed his limits over and over again.

The blood, death, and gloominess all around him was exactly what Nial, or to be precise, the Odyssey seed required!

It began to absorb the essence of the deaths he was responsible for, while accumulating everything within his seedling, only for a tiny, nearly minuscule change to occur to the appearance of the small seed.

A crimson-red vertical stroke could be seen in the center of the seed. It was still dim, and nearly untraceable to the bare eye, but one could still see it!

But Nial was completely oblivious to this as he fought with his life on the line.

He gave his utmost efforts to kill all beasts around him to prevent them from reaching the others.

Yet, Nial quickly lost his observance of the surroundings as his senses were overwhelmed owing to the bombardment of smell, touch, and sounds.

Even the mana currents around him were in disarray and utter chaos.

Nial was unable to control them, which prevented him from sensing anything that was further away than five meters.

This was barely enough for him to sense and battle the beasts around him.

As time seemed to pass in a blur, he couldn\'t even tell where he was anymore as his entire surrounding was filled with beasts, and not even a single Original could be seen.

He lost touch of Bella a while ago, and simply fought with all his might.

The Viper spear was already slick with the blood of the beasts he had killed.

It nearly slipped out of his hand, which would have been his death sentence.

As such, it was only fortunate that he could still hold onto his dear and trusted weapon.

Continuing to fight, Nial\'s entire body was smeared with blood that seemed to heat up.

This was unexpected, but what was more intriguing was that the blood that touched his skin seeped into his open pores.

Only dark impurities were left behind, and their reeking stench permeated the air around Nial.

It restricted his ability to sense anything else.

However, that was not something Nial realized either as his body began to move much faster.

If he were to know that his heart was causing this, while generating more adrenaline within his body to overcome the boundaries of a mortal body, he would be shocked.

After all, until now, only the Odyssey seed had acted up and was behaving weirdly.

Yet, the changes that had been caused by the Titan heart affected not only his mana core, and Odyssey seed, but also his heart.

His regeneration capabilities and other bodily functions had been enhanced drastically, allowing him to fight with more determination than what most other young Originals had left in them.

Even Bella and Shiraq were slowly feeling worn out, holding back in their advances as they kept on killing.

They stayed next to the Soldiers that manifested at least one Origin ring.

Thus, they were relatively safe and sound without too many issues at hand, except their exhaustion.

Nial was lost in his surroundings but he kept on advancing ahead without a way to return as he couldn\'t see or sense anything.

Unfortunately, it took the others a while to figure out that the mana fluctuations in the surroundings were in utter chaos, and that this might harm Nial.

As such, it was impossible for them to help him as their entire surrounding was overflowing with dungeon beasts.

That was also why it could only be described as his good fortune that Nial\'s entire being was shrouded in a bloody-red shroud that seeped into his body.

It was something that nobody could truly understand, but the beasts around tried to avoid him by all means.

They would rather choose to fight the Soldiers at the Prym rank than Nial, the young blind Original, who was slaughtering his way through all beasts that entered his range of perception.

Everybody lost the track of time as they kept pushing themselves and finally were able to take a breath of relief when the final dungeon boss had been defeated, and the remaining beasts within the cave killed.

And it was only when everything was over that Nial noticed the commotion within his body, his wildly beating heart, and the change in the Odyssey seed.

However, this time, instead of being scared, Nial was able to remain relatively calm because he could instinctively feel that something was different compared to before.

It was almost as if a voice was speaking straight into his mind, saying a few words that reverberated through his ears over and over again.

[The Trials are waiting for you!]
