It had been a few weeks since Allen left the Norse Clan.

In those weeks, Allen finally broke through Peak Level Emperor Realm and touched the Initial Lesser Deity Realm. It was all due to the numerous King and Emperor ranked monsters inside the forest as well as hunting scattered demons along the way.

“Fighting here in Celestial Realm is really different than grinding in the mortal realm. At least the monster here give a huge amount of experience…” Allen smiled wryly.

Grrrroooaaaarrr!!

Dozens of monsters gathered as Allen crossed the Mountains. They were drawn to the celestial aura coming from him. It seems like powerful monsters like eating the flesh of a celestial, especially that of a powerful one. That is the reason why this place was a good hunting ground as they poured at him like an endless shower.

Even his aura that was usually intimidated monsters causing them to run away, had now become a great bait in this kind of place.

For the past days, Allen had repeated hunting in this way.

“Shinra Tensei!”

The mobs in the region he was currently at was Mid –Emperor to Peak Emperor realm. Allen had read the records of this mountain from the Balder’s Clan’s library, choosing this place as his hunting ground.

Right now, Allen was strong enough that he would only use several skills to kill a single enemy alone. As part of his training, sometimes he used pure swordsmanship to cut the monsters one by one or some skills to grind his skill proficiency.

And most of all, although it differs from what Solomon had said –he had expected to find silver crystals that possess skills here easily and might be as common as cabbage in the Celestial Realm from his words, but Allen was actually mistaken. It wasn’t common, more like it was extremely rare!

It can only be found in some secret and dangerous region –though, indeed, the skills and items he found were extremely amazing, completely unlike that of Earth.

The ability to turn trash into trees.

Lelouch’s ability, ‘The power of absolute obedience’

And lastly, Gaara’s Sand Manipulation.

This was only the three he had found up until now but the value of these things easily surpasses those from Earth. And he only found them by an accident or tracking the mana signature emitted by them!

Allen acquired Gaara’s Sand Manipulation while he left the other two abilities behind.

"These abilities would be a good boost for the others in back in Earth. Especially Lelouch's ability, Mia would utilize it better than me,"

There were still a large number of monsters on the ground.

Looking at the gathered monsters, Allen’s eyes narrowed, “Chibaku Tensei!”

A black ball, a size of a baseball suddenly appeared from his hands and when it floated in the air, all the things around him was suddenly pulled towards it, including the monsters.

Gyaaahhh!!

Aaaarrr!!!

Rooooaarrr!!

Monster screams and shrieks while struggling very hard not to be pulled by the gravitational force.

When all of them were gathered, Allen snorted and turned around. “Die!” He muttered as he snapped his finger an in an instant, the clustered ball of monsters exploded in a huge burst!

This was the combined abilities of his Chibaku Tensei and Explosion.

The moment it gathered, Allen can detonate them at will. It was an easy killing machine!

Around Allen, there were still many monsters alive and there were even those who had managed to survive the explosion. However, at this very moment, no monsters dared to come and attack Allen and instead, they slowly retroceded in fear. Allen’s overwhelming might had terrified the monsters, enough for them to pee on their selves.

Sneering, Allen continued on his journey.

Kieeeeek!

A little while later, a deafening cry echo throughout the entire forest.

Hearing this eagle –like cry, Allen frowned. He then raised his head and found a crowd of griffons in the sky.

“Griffons…?”

Allen likes Griffons because he owns one. Thus, unlike the others, he can’t just slaughter them like chickens. “Summon Grimoire,”

He called out. The summoning grimoire slowly materializes in front of him.

“Summon Griff”

The pages of the grimoire flipped automatically and a golden light came out from the book, slowly materializing into a griffon silhouette.

“Master?” Upon being called out, Griff turned her head towards Allen.

“Griff, talk to those Griffons and tried befriending them.” Allen smiled as he gently petted Griff’s eagle head. He then found out that Griff ranked up and judging from the aura she emitted, she should be Peak –king ranked Monster.

As expected of the power left behind by Solomon… truly marvelous.

“Okay!” After Allen climbed down on her back, Griff flapped her wings and flew into the air.

“What business do you want with my master?” Griff asked while emitting a strong aura.

Several Griffons immediately back out but some were still unperturbed. They must be quite high-level monsters.

“Master? Hmph! You had trespassed in our territory!” One of the Griffons glared at Griff and Allen, not stepping back even once.

Peak Emperor … Allen frowned. It seems like Griff’s power is still insufficient.

Feeling the aura coming from the griffon, Griff’s expression changed. Still, she endured as she couldn’t show weakness and cowardice in front of Allen.

“Just because it is your territory, means no one can pass! My master is already kind enough not to attack you immediately. If you still dare to show hostility to my master, then we will have no choice but to fight you!”

“Hmph!” The Griffon snorted. “A mere Griffon who had lost their pride and become a human’s dog shouldn’t talk all mighty in front of me!”

The Griffon’s words finally snapped something inside Allen. He had only done this because of Griff but now… those words were out of line!

Allen would never let any of his family be humiliated and mocked! That is his reverse scale!

Allen’s eyes instantly narrowed.

Griff was about to retort when suddenly, she felt the weight on her back disappeared. What!?

When she was about to turn her head, Bang!! A huge explosion appeared just in front of her and the Griffon who was acting arrogant just now shot towards the ground at an unbelievable speed.

“Master!?” Griff’s eyes widened in shock as she stared at the figure flying in the arrogant Griffon’s former position. Black obsidian wings spread on his back.

Griff tried to call Allen but suddenly stopped when she noticed Allen’s expression was ice cold. It even gave her a terrifying feeling.

“Bastard! Don’t you dare insult my family?” Allen coldly muttered as he raised his hand and, “Thor’s Judgment!!”

Bang! Dozens of golden thunderbolts fell and hit Grid.

A dozen Griffons in the surrounding felt Allen’s aura and was immediately scared. A lesser deity!?

He was a lesser deity!!?

In this land, the one that is not good to meet with were deities! Even if it was just a lesser deity, their power still transcends every creature! Even their chief, a peak Emperor realm can’t stand equally in front of a Lesser Deity.

They started backing up and stare at Allen fearfully.

But Allen ignored them. He descended to the ground.

The air became turbulent and the earth shook.

On the crater was a struggling Griffon looking at Allen in shock and fear. He didn’t feel anything before but now, he was terrified he couldn’t stand properly. He actually picked a fight with a Deity…!?

Was he an idiot!!?

“Wa, wait, wait… I never knew you were a Deity!” The Griffon struggled and cried out.

“And so what…?” Allen glared at him. “You still insulted my family, then your death will be the price!”

“Wait! Our Clan and the Deities had a covenant to never kill and hunt against each other! You can’t break the covenant!”

“Covenant? So what? I never signed any treaty!” Allen raised his arm and instant, brown colored sand rose up and encircled his arm.

“Wait!”

“Hold your hand, Lesser Deity,” As Allen was about to swallow the Griffon in the sand, suddenly at this very moment, a deep voice echoed out of nowhere.

Allen frowned and he stopped his attack.

When he turned around, beside Griff was an almost 10 meters tall Griffon staring at him. It seemed to be restricting Griff with her front paws while looking mightily at Allen.

“Let her go,” Allen glared at the huge Griffon and stepped forward. Her Dragon and Demon Aura overlapped, startling the Griffon. However, it was only for a moment, the hawk-like eyes narrowed and for some reason, Allen felt the Griffon grins. But that should be impossible it only a bird's beak.

“Fear not, I didn’t come here to fight. As what that cub said, the covenant can’t be broken. Even an upstart Deity like you can’t break the covenant or else you would start an unnecessary war…” The Griffon said with a deep low tone. “Do you desire war, Godkin?”

“… …” Allen stared at the Griffon. Stronger than me… should be Mid or Peak ranked Lesser Deity.

However, “So what? If someone touches or even mock my family, a war so be it!” Allen grins. War was the least of his concern. If someone knocks on his front door and asks for a fight, then he would receive it without hesitation.

The Griffon’s eyes widened a bit. “I thought you were a Godkin but it seems like… what is a Demon like you doing here alone? A Stray?” She finally felt the Demon aura Allen was emitting and concluded that Allen was a high-level Celestial Demon.

A Divine and Holy aura of a God.

An oppressive aura of a Demon.

A superior and prideful aura of a Dragon.

And some other unknown auras she can't recognize.

... What a very complicated aura the youth in front of her has. A mixed-blood..? But how come it has more than two blood aura of a total opposite and contradicting race...?

What the heck is this Hybrid in front of her...?

“Do you plan to attack us, Demon?” The Griffon’s aura exploded and Allen felt a huge pressure bearing him down.

“I’m not planning anything like that, so let go of my Griff. If not, no matter how powerful you are, I will kill you!” After hearing to the Griffon's words, Allen gave a slight smirk. A dangerous aura swept through the surrounding.

“Master!?”
