“Hm…”
Aleph had just left Mobius’ office. The serious talk was enough to offset most of his previous frustrations, though it wasn’t enough.
“What should I do…”
He thought for a while and opened his prompts.
[Cursed Energy (verted): 6999 → 15,450]
[Rank: Special Grade]
It wasn’t an exaggeration that the evolution process brought him the biggest surge of strength so far. His energy reserves doubled, his physical strength was increased to a terrible degree, and he could use the three-sed “god mode” from Albion.
Aleph also unlocked the use of No Sed Strike due to its striking simirities to Albion's power. On top of all that, he could noly the Ratio Teique to any of the ratio li was no longer limited to the seventh division.
Moreover…
Hum.
The sheathed eastern bde appeared in his grasp.
“So it’s this.” He muttered. “It pushed that deadweight into gaining his Devil Trigger.”
In the world where Yamato came from, it was wielded by a certain deadbeat dad before being passed onto his deadweight son.
Yamato, as one of the two mythical bdes, had the power to ‘split’ anything. Be it two egos or two worlds, it could be used to split them apart.
Aside from that, Yamato also held the power to awakeent potential, allowing Nero to gain his Devil Trigger.
“Si’s verted… hm, that’s right. The equivalent should be the Active Honkai Rea.”
Turns out, Yamato also lent a hand during the evolution process. It was the reason h unlocked some of Albion’s “to be unlocked” powers such as the three-sed god field he demonstrated earlier.
“That’s right. I test this out somewhere.”
He was out to stir troubles once again.
*****
Uhe night sky, an unoacle was happening.
Hum.
Crack-!
Shatter-!
With purely his physical strength, the magecraft barrier shattered right in front of Aleph.
{Results: The current ICHOR has been fully altered into a semi-ceptual state. It grants the power of anti-magic as a passive fun…}
Great Sage’s analysis rang in Aleph’s ears.
“Like a built-in simple domain but for all attacks… This will help against the Co.”
Thinking of all sorts of authorities in Finality’s hands, a chill went through his spine. All of humanity’s power at that point, along with Selene and the remaining Fmechasers, were only able t the Herrscher of the End into a temporary a.
If Aleph was asked how he would fare now…
‘It’s still not enough.’
He pced his hand atop his chest. A fragmented crystal was ying inside him silently.
The Sephira Crystal was built as a holder of the First Spirit’s authority. It was a taihat increased its holder’s power the more power was stored i.
Upon pletion, Aleph would theoretically bee a Spirit, a being far beyond that of humans.
They no longer o eat and sleep. They would no le and gaireme resistao harsh enviros. There was a reason why Spirits could exist in Outer Space alone.
All of that, added with Albion’s plete power…
‘I o find that final fragment.’
“You seem to be in a haste.”
Sasaki walked over him with his undry pole sheathed on his back.
“Yeah. My power still isn’t enough.”
“...It does sound like you are fag someone formidable.” Sasaki ented as he crossed his arms. “Going by my memories, it was indeed a tiresome thing.”
Although Sasaki was a ‘fake’, he possessed fras of memories that people made of the real ‘Sasaki Kojiro’. His ‘battles’ against Miyamoto Musashi was the event with the greatest impact.
The two did not pay much attention to the broken magecraft barrier.
“ I summon you to my end?”
Aleph asked Sasaki a question. The tter seemed surprised by it.
“You already defeated me. Could it be…”
“Yes. It’s for my friend.”
Sakura expressed numerous times hrettable it was that she could not fight against Aleph’s ‘swordsman friend’. The hat the tter gave was enough for her to see Sasaki’s level—far beyond any people she had ever met.
“Alright. Feel free to do so. I know how bad it was to miss such a rival.”
“Thanks.”
Half of Aleph’s objectives ihe Training Space were pleted.
Soon, Aleph left from the temple gate as he arrived in front of a cavern.
“Mount Enzou. It’s already my sed visit…”
Tap.
Tap.
Tap.
Only his footsteps were the sound present. It didn’t take long before he arrived in front of a huge spherical statue.
“The Greater Grail.”
It was her than the Greater Grail, the focal point of the struggles withie Series.
Unfortunately for Aleph, he could n it back to reality. The training space copies the radius of half a city. It wasn’t surprising he mao find this Greater Grail sitting ihe Ryuudou Cavern.
His fiips met the metal’s cold touch.
It looked holy at first gnce.
‘As expected…’
A single opening of his elemental sight was enough to reveal what was hiddeh its normal appearance—a pure bck mud.
‘Angra Mainyu…’
The evils of the world.
That was what the Einzbern Family summoned.
When Aleph saw it for the first time, he had an iing thought:
What would happen if cursed energy is with Angra Mainyu?
He did not choose to touch it before. He felt that he was still somewhat g against it.
Things are different now.
Dum.
Dum.
Dum.
Aleph’s previous frustrations stemmed from how he was always interrupted by Klein at such a crucial moment. That, and the ck of a strong ehat could take a good beating from him.
If he truly guessed the right thing—that this Angra Mainyu is an exception to the training space’s rules—the problems above would be solved.
Hum.
Yamato appeared in his grasp. He pced his thumb above the handguard, barely toug the sheathe. All the force began to verge at one point. A ratio line appeared horizontally on the said statue.
Then—
Hum-!
Sou-!
—an invisible arc headed straight into the greater grail. Yamato’s bde shone dimly as it swung at an unbelievable speed.
Crack-!
Rumble-!
The cut went straight to the greater grail. The rocks behind it began to colpse. The pristine greater grail was broken in one ssh.
Aleph calmly looked at the colpsing cavern. His eyes were still stuck at the brokeer grail.
As expected…
“Tsk, tsk. I’m right.”
A bck mud emerged from its cracks.
