Chapter 56: [ Rain's Training ]

‘Don’t tell me you want me to get that box?’

‘Hehehe, no, no my love. You misunderstand.’

!!?

‘The Box was born due to the Human and the Demons conflict. It will become stronger and a time will come that it can’t be stopped even by us Gods. If a human like you comes close to it, you would certainly lose your mind and be burned and overwhelmed by negative emotions… it’s the embodiment of malice… hehe, even I myself would certainly lose myself if I touch it.’

Atria was laughing cheerfully as if she was enjoying it. More like is she eating something? A popcorn?

For some reason, Rain can hear a plop-plop sound and crunch from time to time.

‘Then what do you want me to do?’ Rain suddenly felt an acute sense of pain from within his head. Is this the limit she was talking about?

‘Hmm, a bit shorter than I thought. You need to become even stronger I guess so that we can talk for a bit longer. Anyway, do all you can to change the world’s current balance…'

‘And how would I do that?’

‘… Due to the war, the world was split into two parts, the human world, and the monster world. And the monster world is gaining its momentum… in simple terms, it is now 60 – 40, you got that? 60 for the monster world and 40 for the human world… with just those numbers, even I myself think that it’s bad news, hehe,’

This girl certainly has some loose screws!

Besides, why the heck a dark Goddess like her who has a title that even most demon kings were dying to have was doing all this to help humanity? Did she get possessed by something?

Is this a trap?

As Rain was thinking about that, Atria’s voice once again appeared, ‘You are extremely rude. And here I treat you as my best follower..’ ‘I’m not your follower!!’

‘Tsk-! Whatever, since you’re my best slave, do all you can. Even Goddess as myself needed to act when the world’s on the brink of destruction you know… if not, I don’t have any toys to play anymore~’

What a valid reason!! More like ‘Did my status got even lower?’

‘Though I prefer if you really create further chaos since you are my best mate that should be given!’

‘Us Gods were also preparing here so go and play, I will give you my full permission.’ An image of a girl giving thumbs up surfaced inside his mind.

My status was certainly changing… I don’t have a fixed profession huh…

‘Advice, if you see a strange box, run away as fast you can. That is not a normal box… it will consume you… bye bye,’

With his headache fading, Rain was digesting his conversation with the infamous goddess. I guess I really did come here for a certain purpose but… why did she only talk to me now…?

And is that really the Goddess of Chaos and Strife… the embodiment of Carnage and Mischief; Goddess Atria? Well, she seems to be just a hyper kid that likes to make pranks…

… …

… …

After some discussion, they chose to first go, Rain decided to lead Princess Leticia and the others to the place where he had first awakened. The place with the strange pedestal filled with bones. Rain thought that it might have some clues because of the engravings that looked like hieroglyphics…

At first, Zarda and the others were against of him going with the Princess group but Rain insisted as he also wanted to grind his level. He would surely encounter monsters and fight on their way to it.

As someone who finally had a goal, Rain was determined to increase his level as soon as possible!

… …

… …

As always, it was similarly grand and humongous cave, but sadly the passage was extremely damp.

Drops of water continued to drip from the cracks in the ceiling. Some parts of the ground had even turned into a river.

The ground was mostly covered with mud water.

Seeing this, Rain frowned. Was it raining outside…?

The group continued to explore the passage. As they explored deeper, Rain made an observation, “There are monsters here.”

“We’re being surrounded…” Lafetti sensed with her eyes closed and then slowly opened them again, pulling out her sword.

They suddenly heard the howl of some canine creature. Rain could clearly see what it was.

“Orthrus Wolves and Bone Eaters.” Princess Leticia frowned and immediately ordered, “Prepare for battle! There’s an alpha monster!”

The moment she said that all the warriors immediately raised their weapons.

Dozens of monsters came out from the shadows and immediately rushed towards them.

Stagna and the other archers raised their bows and unleashed several arrows!

Countless wolves whimpered and howled. Warriors, such as Drova, Princess Leticia, Doram, Garas and many others immediately charged, their blades tearing through the air, attacking the monsters.

Many swords skills and magic skills whirled around on the battlefield.

Zarda and Alba, on the other hand, were standing behind the group, uncaring and remained indifferent. Alba even contained her aura as a monster king, causing it to look like just any other silver wolves. This was the secret request of Rain as he wanted to fight.

He knows that with Alba’s aura, no monster would dare to attack them. Although it was a bit shameless and selfish as there would surely be casualties within Princess Leticia’s group but Rain has no choice.

What he learned the most in this place was that sometimes, one needed to harden one’s heart and think not for others but for himself. The world is different now. Here, one can kill people as easily as swatting a fly.

If he remained soft-hearted, a day will come that a price will be paid by him. And he doesn’t want to do that!

“I will go in,” Rain said at Zarda and Alba.

“Be careful.” Zarda sent him off with a smile. Before she wouldn’t do this but now, she had changed her mind. She decided to trust Rain, that no matter how stronger he becomes, he wouldn’t leave them.

Besides, Rain was still indeed weak compared to the others. Wanting to become stronger was normal for a man. If a man didn’t desire big things, he would always stay at the bottom.

Alba nodded her head. “Pup, be careful. Don’t do anything rash,”

“I know,” Rain nodded with a smile and jumped towards the battlefield.

Seeing her back, Zarda and Alba can’t help but feel a premonition.

At this moment, this is truly Rain’s official prologue of his legend that will shake the entire world of

A legend that will change the entire history of .

… …

… …

Rain swung his blade with a scary expression.

He would never pity his enemy, nor would he have mercy on them.

Towards his enemies, Rain’s kindness was mostly equivalent to zero!

Any monsters that dared to approach were massacred by the sharp broadsword, splattering monster blood everywhere. Shocker Shock! Rain stomps his palm and an electric web run through the ground, stunning over 10 monsters, and sending them flying meters away.

Against Bone Eaters and Orthrus Wolves, Rain wasn’t at a disadvantage anymore.

He wasn’t the former him. He had already changed a great deal since he had fought against them.

Although he wasn’t at the level of affecting physical bodies but elemental induction was easy for him.

And most of all…

First, imagine in the heart the ‘form of water’… the form of water. As he moved, Rain recalled the lessons from Earth – the structure of the water molecule is H2O; 2 hydrogen atoms and 1 oxygen atom, simply bonded together.

Atoms… bond…

Rain knows about the water molecule’ from the structure of the compound to its properties. He then imagines the small molecules around him and tried to connect with them. At first, it was extremely difficult.

Rain had spent a very long time to grasp this feeling – though, after countless painstaking experiment and training, he finally managed to conjure water ball. It was extremely small at first until it became the size of a fist.

At that moment, Rain was struck by enlightenment and he felt his familiarity and intimacy towards every molecule in the air become closer. He can even reduce the kinetic energy of any atoms, hence reducing the temperature and freezing anything he touches. He can also the opposite and speed up the molecules to catch fire, burn or melt!

Of course, the mana consumption was extremely large and he can only freeze or burned those he had touched.

At this very moment, an invisible wave swept over the area, and everything seemed to be renewed.

Rain realized he could feel the surrounding water vapor.

The 'water' that felt distant from him suddenly became much closer; as if he could talk to them and receive a response. It was like every small water droplet was bouncing inside his brain

This feeling was marvelous, Rain felt as if he had gained a new pair of eyes.
