'What? What do you an I ca here before? Dammit, my mind is being hamred nonstop today! What the hell do you an? Oy Patches! Answer !'
Patches ignored him and then faced forward his gigantic body tensing from excitent. He galloped at half speed towards Starfall, The manticore then ordered Hiro in a voice that commanded in full authority.
"Put on the glove and say the words 'I am the heavenly sword'. Consider it your last gift to ."
The monster's majesty could be likened to kings. Unable to resist his command, Hiro complied in reflex. He quickly wore the glove that seed like it was made from cotton on his right hand.
The glove didn't fit right and was quite loose. It looks just like any old hand warr. Yet due to the importance Patches placed on it, this thing was sure to be sothing special at least.
"I am the heavenly sword."
Unlike normal, the alerts that ca next weren't only in Hiro's thoughts but they were also coming from the glove. It seed like the system and the glove had the sa maker.

Hiro got caught off guard when the glove suddenly tightened to fit his hand snuggly. The gems then increased in size, if earlier they were like small marbles now they looked like small swords each having a unique shape.
The ruby looked like a square ice cream Popsicle, the erald looked like an uneven rectangle, and lastly, the sapphire looked like the lips on a smiley. Hiro grew disappointed with how stupid all three looked.
The man got stumped for the Nth ti today. What the hell was this glove saying? None of it made sense. Before the transmigrator could ask the manticore what it all ant Patches roared in an emotional voice.
"GLORY BE TO THE SAVIORS! FINALLY! The one they saw all those years ago… Masters! The Heavenly Sword has finally arrived once more! The bloodline of steel remains alive despite the injustice of this world! I HAVE NOT FAILED YOU! I AM A FAITHFUL SERVANT!!"
The lion's head then roared in Jubilation as the echoes of its cry assaulted the ears of everyone present. "IT IS A GOOD DAY TO DIE! I HAVE NO REGRETS! MY PURPOSE HAS BEEN FULFILLED!"
Due to the distance, Hiro needed [Farsight] to see Patches, he could hear the voices due to the monster bellowing but everything else sounded bad due to the distance. The loss of his AGI affected the range of senses significantly.
When Hiro and Patches retreated from combat [Strength Derived from Pride] deactivated, consequently Hiro right now only had his base stats. Hiro noticed sothing about the skill, the more stringent the reality the better stats it gave.
For example, arming yourself with a sword couldn't be easier for Hiro, thus it only gave him 40 bonus points to all stats. That alone by itself wasn't bad. But it couldn't grant [Over the Limit].
So far from all the realities he experinted on Hiro never successfully triggered [Over the Limit] beyond the first two tis. The first was when he vowed he would never lose to Artorius. The second ti ca when he challenged an angry mob to fight for his harem's honor.
In both cases, the criteria for the reality needed to be extrely specific. One restricted itself to a single combat situation. The other could be invoked only when all his wives were present and a hostile group vastly outnumbered them.
Yet Patches shared how to make the realities specific but usable in a large number of scenarios. The suggestions ca with insight into how his skills fundantally behaved.
By tying the realities to his skills, he could turn them into ga-changers. Both suggestions would apply to his difficult situation and allow Hiro to maximize his gains. The more he studied the monster's suggestions the more he noticed how apt they were for his current predicant.
With his high INT, Hiro could not co up with a way for this to be possible. Not unless soone who mastered the skill from using it over long periods told Patches. This gave credibility to Manticore's statent.
'But how is that possible? I only got here a month ago. How does he know anything that happened in another reality? I an in ani and manga one's mories are restricted to only their original universe. It is impossible to know what happened in another without soone telling you.'
When Hiro looked for the Manticore, Patches already arrived near the devoted. The lion roared at a volu that made the heavens quake. "AS MY OFFERING TO THE CYCLE OF REBIRTH I WILL HAVE ALL OF YOU ACCOMPANY ! [PATCHES OF ETERNITY] MODE -SECOND WORLD! "
Patches' goat head opened its mouth and pointed it upward. Out ca a crimson sky beam like from superhero movies and violently traveled towards the heavens.
It elucidated the desert, there was so much light that not even the smallest shadow could encroach. As the sun already set the sky beam drove away the night and reclaid the day.
After reaching about 300 ters in the air the beam suddenly spread like waves as it smashed into an invisible wall. The light behaved like a liquid and followed an invisible mold in the shape of a sphere. The scope of the sphere encompassed an extrely large area around Patches.
The Devoted quickly noticed the power of the crimson cage. Frank then shouted franticly still sounding bored. "It's a [Mirage Sphere]! Disperse! NOW!"
The fifteen powerful warriors ran in different directions to escape the cage of blood. But Patches of course knew how easy it was for system users to run outside of the crimson sphere.
"You underestimate too much human! Just how many servants of the false princess do you think I killed over the millennia? [ASTRAL GYVE]!"
