Chapter 112 - Rushing Outside
-----
By merely equipping these items, I feel like my power has increased probably three times… However, it doesn\'t show in my existence realm because, at the end of the day, it is "borrowed" power from the equipment itself, not part of me.
But as long as I live I can keep this equipment equipped through the system, even if they are torn into pieces, they will slowly regenerate back into perfect condition over my body, so it could still be said to be like my own power…
Well, anyways, after equipping all three items, it felt as if my entire body was exuding a gigantic aura that resembled a sea of darkness and gold colors, twisting together into a chaotic atmosphere.
"Amazing… my creations truly look wonderful over Master," said Anna.
"I have to admit it, you did an amazing work there, Anna," said Kireina.
"Indeed!" said Katrina.
"My gold was also used, papa! That\'s why the equipment is so shiny!" said Vudia.
"Oh? Really? I see… Maybe that\'s the reason why everything is so goldy… Well, I like it, has a lustrous feeling to it," I said, petting the adorable Vudia.
"With such glorious equipment, my lord will take anyone before his path," said Wagyu.
"Can I wear it?" asked Aqua while bouncing around
"Erm… No… But you could try out using the other equipment… Wait- Summons can\'t… Well, bring Javier and the rest of his group, I want them to use whatever they want in this pile,"
After some time Javier and his party finished their training in the training grounds and rushed to my side, as I greeted them with a giant pile of items.
All of them had already seen the riches I had, but they were almost going to cry when they heard that I told them that they could pick up whatever they wanted.
"R-Really, Gustav!?" asked Javier, almost beginning to cry.
"Erm… Yes, pick them up, none in my party can use them because we got better equipment, I just upgraded mine picking the best here, so these are the leftover equipment, pick whatever you want and don\'t contain yourself," I said.
"A-Amazing!"
"Thank you so much!"
"It takes so much luck to even get a dropped item from monsters…"
"Yet there is a lot here!"
Oh? Does it take a lot of luck?
After some discussions with Javier and his party, I discovered that the drop of items is not as big as it is for me. It seems that alongside killing hundreds of monsters, my naturally high fortune which is accumulated after stealing it from many makes it so I get a bunch of rare drops.
I see, so I guess even this group that survived for some time killing a few dozen of monsters didn\'t get anything worthwhile, I guess this is why it is impacting them so much to the point of bringing them to tears…
Though I still think they\'re being melodramatic. Stop crying!
Anyways, after this, everyone picked up new equipment, ad their power easily multiplied, they were around B-Rank in power, but after equipping the items, all of them were easily comparable to S-Rank! So they were very useful now. Well, a bit. I will still use them as soldiers and recon for now. If they are weak enough to almost die, we can always heal them over and over again until they grow stronger.
Still, due to the EXP System, by merely helping with killing monsters, they can get shared EXP and level up at a fast pace, especially if we come across a big army of monsters in the way.
Now that I was done with this, I decided to finally get out of the Inner World.
Opening a rift in space, we jumped outside of the Inner World, and we rushed through the skies.
Javier and the rest were having trouble flying properly, but they would get used to it eventually.
We also brought Annabelle with us, the giant ghost house, which generated enormous arms made of wood ad phantom.
We had cleansed this entire area of monsters, so it was now awfully silent, almost peaceful.
And the crack… was gone.
What happened there?
Did killing the rat made it so the dimension closed?
Well, better for us, although it might be sad as humans won\'t be able to bathe on this to easily grow stronger anymore, I already got what I wanted from there.
For the moment we rushed back into the town where Javier came from, and as I left the team killing some weak monsters that were roaming around, I began to order Annabelle to absorb all the ruins around, the houses that were here were excellent materials for her to grow bigger, so she immediately began to siphon everything and becoming enormous, like a giant manor although it looked like many pieces of houses stitched together, not so pretty.
Javier watched with awe and surprise as the entire town was no more after around 5 minutes, and Annabelle had grown gigantic from this.
"Now, go back for now," I said.
Annabelle quickly rushed inside the Inner World and began to do as I ordered her, splitting herself into pieces and slowly building an entire town made of ghost houses.
And what would you know? We got a lot of human corpses, which I raised into undead right away and deposited into the inner world. There were also some survivors, who were hiding in the underground areas. Around ten terrified people. They were way too scared, so Kireina made them sleep with her Illusion Magic for the moment, and I put them inside the Inner World, inside of the split ghost houses from Annabelle.
Anyways, after this, we continued our travel through the skies, finally getting closer to our destiny, a large city, which name I don\'t know, but it must be near the border between Canada and USA.
As we got closer, we noticed that large spaceships were floating near us, we decided to descend and see if they had not detected us but…
FLASH!
BOOOM!!!
A giant laser beam reached the ground right next to me… I guess we will have to inevitable fight.
Good.
