Chapter 840: Combat Training Complete
Chapter 840: Combat Training Complete
On day 13 of his training with Micheal Rudra finally heard a system prompt that told him he learnt the skill ‘ Basic Mana Reinforcement ‘.
Eventhough the skill was labelled as basic it displayed as legendary in his status screen and had a big impact on his fighting style.
It basically boosted his attack and defense by about 20% which gave him the final edge that he needed to fight a god on a level where he could atleast crawl back up to take another hit, time and time again.
Only on the final day , day 14 did Rudra activate the future sight and the time dilation as he fought with Micheal to get one serious spar in , and he genuinely tried his best to injure the god.
He was successful in dealing 7% damage on the god after he unexpectedly spun out of his holy lance attack to scratch both of his legs with his two swords.
It turned out to be a suicide attack though as after he scratched Micheal he was immediately hit on the head hard by micheals big hands , however eventhough he was knocked out cold from that blast , Micheal was surprised when he felt a holy lance impale his back as Rudra had already launched and corrected the trajectory of that attack to this exact spot using his future sight.
So in the end Rudra managed to chip off a meager 7% of Micheals HP , but even this feat shocked the god to his core.
Micheal was basically as strong as strong became for tier 6 beings , unlike Lucifer he was genuinely at the peak of tier 6 at 1800+ level and divinity packed in his bones.
” This halfling , he’s terrifying”. Micheal concluded as he saw Beniogre finally show up to take Rudra for the last and final phase of his training , however there was a huge frown on Beniogre’s face as she looked at Micheal and said ” Why is the kid always unconscious when i see him? ”
Micheal chuckled , Rudra really had caused a lot of stir in the kingdom of heaven. Although he was polite unlike the other two humans who have been here , in a way he was even more of a troublemaker than they were.
Beniogre patted Rudra on the head and his injuries recovered immediately as he woke up as if waking from a gentle sleep.
Rudra looked at the radiant face of beniogre and concluded this must be a dream so he said ” Ur beautiful, let me sleep some more goddess” as he tried to go back to sleep.
It took Rudra only 2 seconds to realise that he should not really be dreaming and he was jolted awake and ready for combat , but seeing Beniogre and Micheal beside him he calmed down a bit.
Rudra instantly regretted the words he had spoken as Beniogre was blushing red beside him as if she were a schoolgirl going mush on a compliment , whereas Micheal was staring into the distance as if contemplating on giving Rudra a reward.
Finally Micheal said ” Your other sword , siege breaker i beleive you call it , do you wish to trade that blade for the divine blade Excalibur? “.
Rudra’s eyes widened in shock , Excalibur was the first blade with which he had started playing Omega , albeit it was a dark gold grade copy.
He had the fortune of using the blade once when he was sent to hell on a mission by Micheal , however now the archangel was genuinely asking if he wanted to wield the greatest blade ever made for mankind.
” Yes ” Rudra answered without hesitation , although his fighting style had now been attuned to siege-breaker and changing swords like this last minute might be counterproductive but Rudra knew that Excalibur was worth it.
It’s sharpness aside the main advantage of using that blade was that it was indestructible and the weight and size of the blade could be manipulated by the user.
This size manipulation was the biggest perk of using the blade and ofcourse it came with an insane damage and other innate abilities as well.
Siege breaker was a good blade in of itself , however not as good as Excalibur. Hence Rudra was undoubtedly making a profitable transaction by handing it over to the archangel.
Micheal said ” This blade was entrusted to me by godess beniogre to be given to the champions of the church of light to aid them in their fight against the darkness.
Today i give its possession to you , in hopes that it aids your cause of slaying the devil “.
Rudra took the blade and accepted the responsibility. With this he had finally completed his combat training.
Micheal said ” ill be keeping an eye on your fight , don’t slander my name halfling , not many can call themselves tutored personally by archangel Micheal , i have a reputation to mentain in the middle realm ”
Rudra nodded ” Aye , thankyou for your tutelage master “.
Beniogre who had finally recovered from the previous compliment said ” Let’s go , we only have 14 days to teach you the correct way of life “.
Rudra instantly frowned internally when he heard this , as the last thing he wanted to do was have lessons on philosophy, however he did not let it show on his face as he silently followed Beniogre to her residence.
Beniogre was a weird existance even in the kingdom of heaven , Rudra had walked the streets with three Archangel’s before however never did the citizens go out of their way to bow to the Archangel’s as they would only gawk and point and smile at them , however people would give a deep bow whenever they saw Beniogre.
It was almost like Beniogre was the most important existance in all of heaven although she was not a powerful goddess in terms of combat potential at all.
What baffled Rudra was , what made someone who had no ability to defend themselves such a special being?
It was an interesting question whose answer he was going to find pretty soon.
