《Journey to Another World.... because of my Neighbour》Chapter 17: Bratus Helps Out
Advertisement
The next day I was supposed to go to the Dungeon but was invited to a tea by Flora. She asked me to make the tea as she had had the tea that the maid made. Which I had taught, so she wanted to drink it. But of course, I changed it a bit. Today I made one with Cardamon and Basil leaves.
While the one from before will make you warm, this one will make you calm. While drinking tea she took out a few Artefacts.
"I would like to Apprise you once again, would you comply? Or should I do it in secret later?" She asked playfully.
"Nope, you won't be able to do it now. I've gotten the Intuition skill now. It'd be really hard to do it without letting me know," I said "but I'll comply with your request anyway. You know just for friends."
"You arrogant little... Look Intuition is just a skill. Like any other, it can be bypassed as well. To give you an example, someone who practiced sword their whole life and earned their Sword Mastery skill and someone who got it because of their Class or were born with it. If both have the same level of skill and stats. Who'll win in a fight? Skills just give you direction and stats power. How to use it is a completely different thing. That's why Power Leveling isn't considered a good approach."
What she said opened up another door in my mind. I was in a way power leveling too. Getting stronger but not used to the strength. Didn't I need Training too?
"Would you train me?" So I asked the only person who I thought could train me. "You know because we're fellow... Fellows from the same Guild"
Flora's POV
This! Training him would be good for the Guild since it'll make him more aware but if I spend more time with him, I might get attached to him. No, I can't do it. What if he just leaves as well. I already have my family, and if I get attached to him then even more weakness.
But I won't have to protect him, right? He'll become powerful enough to do it himself. For the guild, I'll train him.
"If that is what you want then be it. But first I'll use this"
{Borrowing the Skill [God's Eye] from the Artefact: Eye of Nabu}
{The Skill [God's Eye] can not be borrowed due to lack of power. Devolved Skill [Vision of Gods] created and Borrowed}
{Name: Ishant
Age: 17
Gende{r: Male
Race: Human
Title(s): [???] [???] [???] [???]
Level: 29
Class: [Mage (Space & Ice] [????]

That was the same as before, now I focused on the First Title, unlike last time when I had focused on his Class.
{The Skill [Vision of Gods] has been focused. The Title has been updated to [Otherwolder] }
Oh, good. Now it's confirmed. And I didn't lose another one of these artifacts at least. Now let's focus on the second one.
{The Skill [Vision of Gods] has been focused. The Title has been updated to [World Traveler] }

I don't think I've heard of this one before. But there should definitely be something about it in the Archives of Men/Women of Letters. Now the 3rd one.
{The Skill [Vision of Gods] has been focused.}
{You received a warning from UNIVERSE SYSTEM to stop focusing on Skill : [Vision of Gods]}
Universe System? What's that. We'll find out later, I mean they've already said that even if the Artefacts all break if I can provide information it'd be okay. So I'll proceed anyway.
{Proceed with Caution: You've Influenced Something beyond your universe. You've achieved Limit Break}
{You've been influenced by an Anonymous Gaze.}
It felt as if I was holding the sky itself. I knew this feeling, standing against something unbelievably powerful. However, the last time if it was a drop of water. Now it was the Ocean itself. The gaze of someone so powerful. Just losing the will to be. But somehow I felt IT didn't want me to lose it all. To cease to exist from its Gaze so the Gaze was removed as soon as it landed on me. But that moment, a single moment was enough to show me that whatever it was, it should never be offended.
{Due to ignoring UNIVERSE SYSTEM WARNING you've been reduced to Level 1}
Wait! Wait! Wait! What's this? What's going on? But before I could panic.
{The title [Withstood the Gaze of ????] Has been acquired}
{The Anonymous Presence has restored your Level}
{The title [Blessed by Bratus] has been acquired}
{The title [Withstood the Gaze of ????] Has been updated to [Withstood the Gaze of Bratus]}
{New Titles were automatically activated}
{The skill [Vision of Gods] was acquired}
{Due to the Influence of the Title [Withstood the Gaze of Bratus] the Class [Void Wielder] was acquired}
{Due to the Influence of the Title [Blessed by Bratus] the Class [Void Wielder] has been upgraded to [Void Master]}
{[Vision of Gods] has updated the details of the Individual: Ishant}
The difference was that his Title Friend of Bratus was revealed. Probably because I was also blessed by this Bratus. Who was Ishant to be friends with an entity that didn't have any problem restoring my levels back? It was said that even Gods have levels and are bound by them. So who's it, that's not even bound by levels.
"Who's Bratus?" I asked. Ishant has seen my expressions change this whole time and it looked like he wanted to ask something but I asked him first. He looked extremely surprised. I'd be too, I wouldn't expect a Title like that would be revealed.
"A friend, he's a God I suppose but still a good friend." He replied.
Not even a god can grow so powerful as to change someone's Level. Or maybe they can and we just didn't know.
"I didn't think you'll be able to see it through. That Artefact must be some OP item."
"What's OP?" I asked
"You know, overpowered."
"It's not really about the Artefact" then I just decided to tell him all of it honestly. Of course, I had already gotten us in a separate space way before when he was making tea. So there should be no problem with any secrets.
"Wait so Bratus looked at you then you were level one but he then gave you a bunch of Titles and Leveled you back up. Yeah, I can totally picture him doing it. He'll never let you get in trouble because of him."
"Yeah, the titles feel kinda like a warm feeling. I don't know how to express it. Your friend seems like a good person." I really thought so. He went through all of it for someone that shouldn't be any important to him.

"I know right, good thing you didn't look into the other Title. That woman wouldn't have been any kind to you. You know she didn't even let me say goodbye to Bratus. That cruel woman."
"Wait, you're related to even more gods? Are you a god that got reincarnated?"
"No, no. I'm just your Regular everyday normal... Human."
"I somehow find it hard to believe. I don't know why? Oh, maybe it's because you've Two different Titles related to these Gods. "I said sarcastically. Then I started laughing. Because now I had two titles too. Related to these Gods. I didn't know if mine were as powerful as his but at least I had two. I also Broke the Limit for some reason. For a normal person, it'd have taken a sub-evolution of race. Which can only be done in very particular environments and needs extremely rare items. Also, you need to be Level 100 when you do it too.
Oh, I should at least see what have I gotten from these.
{Title: Withstood the Gaze of Bratus
Obtaining Method: Withstanding the Gaze of Bratus the God of Destruction.
Effect:
Skills Acquired: [Boundless Willpower]
Other Effects (unknown)
}
{Title: Blessed by Bratus
Effect:
Skills Acquired: [Increased Resistance to Status Effect (Extreme)] [Immunity to Instant Death Skills/Status Effects]
Other Effects: (unknown)
}
{Class: Void Master
Class Skills: [Void Sub Elements Affinity] [Sky Element Affinity] [Magic Skill Combination (Void)] [Void Shot] [Void Sheild] [Weapon Element Sudo Enchantment (Void)]}
This was the best! I got up and hugged Ishant. "Thank you! Thank you for the introduction. Everything is so amazing. It takes years of training to get this much growth. "
I didn't even know there were Instant Death Skills or status effects. I might have read that there might be but I'm now Immune to it just like that. A skill with extreme effect was so rare that only in legends I've heard of it. And the amazing thing.
Class: [Master Magician (Lighting, Moon & Sky)]
A Master Magician can have 3 extra Masteries. I've been waiting for someday to come across a high-level element. Now I've one of these. Sky, while it's not as fraudulent as Ishant's Space. It's still an extremely powerful one.
As for Magic Skill Combination (Void) another amazing skill. I could now combine elements, even if it's just a sub-element. But Combination with all Magic skills is just too good. Since we were in a separate space I tried a Fireball (Void) the color of it turned pitch black and as if it was sucking in everything. If my ordinary Fireball is considered then it can be said that now it was 4-5 times more powerful.
"Oh, we're gonna train now. Come on"
"Did it already start?"
"No"
"Then why did you shoot that.. terrifying Black Hole at me"
"That was just Fireball (Void)"
"Okay" He looked like a puppy now. My cute puppy.
Wait what am I thinking, do I like him. Nope, I just like puppies. Yes, that's it.
Bratus POV
As I was traveling between Worlds, I suddenly felt that someone was trying to gauge me. It wasn't powerful but Its existence was enough for me to Gaze at it.
Hmm, it looks like a Human is trying to look at me through my connection with Ishant. Let's see what's been going on there.
Ohh! Looks like Ishant is doing okay. He seems to like this girl. But because of me she just lost her power. Oh well as an Omniverse level God it was not hard for me to change it back. Oh, I suppose that universe Gods might have noticed it. While in Normal cases even a Multiverse level god would start respecting them because of my Gaze but if we're talking about universal gods. They're usually Ignorant kind. I suppose I'll give the girl my blessings at least It'll give her some power. As for Ishant, I suppose his growth is already good. Maybe I should ask Vinatee about it.
Vinatee seems to be this way. Ah yes, there she's. "Hi, Vinatee. It's me Bratus. Open up the space." I tried to force my voice through her dimension.
"Come on in, look at this new world. You've never been here, right?"
"Seems like that. You know I usually don't go anywhere unless I'm needed."
Oh, that looks delicious, Vinatee offered me a slice of bird meat I've never eaten. The meat itself was spicy. "What's this meat?"
"Oh, it's the Phoenix variation of this universe."
"Seems delicious, anyway the reason I came here," I told her about the whole thing.
She just like me could see through years of past within moments so it didn't take her much time to see herself.
"What is that Idiot talking about? I didn't let him say goodbye to you? I'm going to curse him. Does he know I spent years trying to find the perfect world for him with all the functions he wanted? Then after getting connected to it trying to maintain the time flow and even gave him my blessings. But that ungrateful brat"
"Woohoo! Clam down. To him, it probably looked like nothing happened in that moment. "
"Yeah, that's also true. But can't he see my blessing. That brat. Anyway since you're asking. I do know a god in that multiverse. That cute little girl should be enough. I'll tell her about it and with the influence of a god of a multiverse. The universe-level gods wouldn't dare anything. "
Oh good. Let's go.
General POV
Temple of Multiverse: Goddess Snow the personification of Ice's room
"Yes, my Lady. I shall see to it that the boy isn't interfered with by universe-level gods"
As Snow watched her Ideal goddess, the truly marvelous one. She thought about this person Ishant. She should watch him from now on. I shouldn't give him my blessings. Someone who has received the Blessings of Lady Vinatee is already above that. But I need to take some initial actions at least.
After a thought, she used a blade that was as if the cold itself. Not Ice, not anything that was frozen. But the cold itself. As if the temperature has gone way below the 0° Kelvin mark and the reality has bent itself to create a concept where cold is not just the lack of warmth but something entirely else. She used it to draw a drop of blood.
This single drop of blood can wage wars between Universe gods but she used a simple technique to form a clone from it.
But it was too powerful to enter the universal plain. Thus she used her power to create a blade. This one was made from Dragon Hellfire which she has frozen with her divinity. With this blade, she absorbed the energy from the clone and left the clone with a similar power level that Ishant had. In other words, the clone was now Level 29. Now she buried the Blade inside the soul of the clone.
With this, the only thing left now was to send her to Ishant. While she would have no memories. At least she'll remember Ishant. That should be enough. If I try to Influence too much other multiverse gods might start complaining.
