Chapter 782 Many Things To Do
—–Miranda was overthinking things so much that she was having a headache. Drake had indeed told them way too many things and it was getting hard to process everything, especially because of how little certainty she had about anything. Even the smartest person would begin to let out steam out of their ears by now… but Drake decided to keep himself calm and composed. Panicking won’t lead to anywhere, and trying to get everything done at turbo speed won’t help either, that would only made their presence even more obvious.
”Calm down… It is not as if we cannot stop their resurrection to begin with. After all, as long as [Fate] is still holding on, we can find them before they resurrect and I’ll absorb them through [God]. As I said previously, it has the power of absorbing divinities and divine power.” Said Drake.
”Y-You’re right… But still. Oh well…” Miranda sighed. “I don’t want to go around overthinking stuff… Let’s live… one day at a time like you said, we’ll slowly advance towards our goals.”
”There are many things indeed. Overthinking it all will be hard and honestly quite painful.” Sighed Benladann. “And knowing this whole thing doesn’t exactly help that much either… But we’ll get there. For now Drake, you should complete the inheritance from the Venerable of Dreams.”
”Yeah, I know, I’ll get it done through the week, don’t worry about it.” Said Drake. “I also know the Dungeons left by the Great Demon now thanks to Belle’s information she gave me. It seems the next Dungeon is quite near, through he coast, we have to reach the capital of the Frost Tear Kingdom where there is the Tower of Frost, this is both a Dungeon from the Great Demon of Dungeons and also the Inheritance of the Frost Queen Venerable.”
”Oh! We are going there then?” Wondered Benladann.
”Yes, after that, we’ll go to the next Nation to the meeting of the Jotunheim Nations and Sects, which is in a few more months from now…” Said Drake. “We’ll get to learn a lot about the people of this continent and anything interesting… A good thing about my Unique Skill is that I can easily turn off my Godly presence, pretty much resembling a mortal. Just like right now, no gods can detect I am actually one as long as I desire. This means that I won’t be chased around by Gods or something as easily… as they seem to not bully mortals.”
”Oohh, that’s like a big cheat! Isn’t it? Is this because the Unique Skill itself is what gave you godly powers while you alone didn’t attained divinity normally?” Wondered Miranda. “Wait, does this means you can still become a god conventionally?”
”No, it is done already, I cannot really become a god conventionally, sadly.” Said Drake. “But I believe it is for the better…” Sighed Drake.
”Oh… Well, that’s alright.” Said Miranda. “What about us? Can I become a goddess?”
”I don’t know, your growth seems related with Benladann, so if her Mana Core reaches Rank 7… I think you should be able to.” Said Drake.
”Oooh!” Said Miranda. “Come on, just do it then Benladann- Ah, how can she do it?”
”Cultivating Mana for hundreds of years, using resources and other things… It is an incredibly slow process… Well, conventionally. Using my own powers I’ll find a way. Although I am pretty sure that you two and Benladra are already developing divine power, right? Benladann and Benladra’s Mana Cores are already Upper Stage of Rank 5 out of nowhere. It seems that when I recovered your Mana after I became a God I ended giving you a big amount of Divine Power by accident… Well, it was a good one.” Said Drake. “Perhaps we can help you guys skip the entire process of cultivating by slowly feeding you Divine Power… But as of now I am using it to grow stronger myself, so it will be a slow process.”
”Don’t worry about it dear, I am happy as we are… I want to help you fight as well whenever the time comes, btu I’ll grow stronger by myself. With the help of this spirit, it seems I can learn new ways to cultivate using my Chaos Essence, which seems to be of equal power to Divine Power, or so he says…” Said Benladann. The Scaled God had become her Spirit Familiar and was pretty much enslaved by her to obey all her will. He could barely reject her orders due to the powerful enslavement contract, and he had been teaching her many things through the week. The Chaos Spirit seems to hate his life, but has showcased a rather complex mind and personality.
”Oh right… The Chaos Spirit…” Said Drake, looking at the blob of black slime with a single, red-colored eye that Benladann summoned. The Chaos Spirit looked at Drake in silence and with a lot of nervousness. It seemed to dislike how much he stared at him but couldn’t say a thing against him. The Chaos Spirit had grown very weak now and was to Benladann’s mercy completely. She wasn’t lying when she said he was doing anything she asked him that was within his capabilities. Teaching her the way of using her innate and immense sea of Chaos Essence inside her soul didn’t seem to be something hard to do, so he had been doing this the last three days since she gave him the order.
”I saw part of your past when I absorbed the Divinity of Divine Flames from Blaze.” Said Drake. “Alongside his own memories… You’re more complex than just a stupid monster, aren’t you?” Asked Drake. The Chaos Spirit seemed to eb trying to ignore him, but Benladann forced him to speak back to Drake and answer his questions as truthfully as possible.
”Hey! Answer my husband as truthfully as you can.” Said Benladann, petting the slimy head of the Chaos Spirit.
”Uuuggh… F-Fine!” The Chaos Spirit said, as Drake nodded.
