Before heading to the Black City to find Olga...
Back at the goddess Temple — the fixed teleportation hub of the Treeborn World— Veyron had already managed to snag the White Magic, the counterpart to the dark elves' sorcery (witchcraft), and Divine Arts, a system of godly spells created by the goddess Larentia after being reawakened by the faith of 7 million believers, channeled through rlin.
Naturally, he fed both of these newly acquired abilities into his [Divine Ki] — the sa way he had with the dark elven sorcery Olga had just passed to him.
And once the White Magic was devoured, the affix boost for [Divine Ki] jumped significantly: From the previous 2, 4, 6, 8…To a new high of 3, 6, 9, 12.
As for the Divine Arts…
Just like the dark sorcery, it simply gave his "Ki" the ability to morph its properties depending on the nature of the technique.
So now, with the foundation of [Divine Ki] built from the three-type Haki and spiritual power — and with three different skill tags layered on top: dark sorcery, white magic, and divine arts— the scaling changed.
A normal trait increased in power by 1, 2, 3, 4...
With two fused sources (three-type Haki spiritual power), it scaled to 2, 4, 6, 8...
And with all three combined (three-type Haki spiritual power Treeborn Magic), the boost reached 3, 6, 9, 12...
That in itself gave Veyron so clues to work with.
The three Haki types from the One Piece world all share a common origin —manifestations of willpower and belief— and magic in the Treeborn World worked off a similar principle.
So even though he'd absorbed multiple powers from the sa world, only the first one triggered an upgrade in boost power.
And now, Veyron was sure of one thing: He could definitely squeeze out at least one more boost.

『Ordinary Human』:@Lady Avalon, is my fav miss rlin free the next few days? I want to try extracting mana from your world.
『Lady Avalon』: Huh?
『Lady Avalon』: Mana's still useful to you?
『Ordinary Human』: Very.
『Snake Empress』: Wait, wasn't there a whole issue with rlin's world? Like, aren't there "Counter Forces" always watching that place? Wouldn't going there recklessly just trigger them into attacking us?
『Ordinary Human』: Other way around. Now they're probably worried I might be a threat to them.😏😏😏
『Lady Avalon』: ?!
『Earth's Cancer 』: Huh??
『Earth's Cancer 』: If I rember right, the Counter Force in rlin's world is basically like… half the will of the entire planet, right?
『Lady Avalon』: It's not that exaggerated. If you're looking for a true "World Will" in my universe, it's more likely to be the Root than Gaia or Alaya.
『Lady Avalon』: Those two are special, sure, but compared to so of the world wills we've t in past group missions? They don't really asure up…Then again, if you're only counting the Solar System or just Earth as the whole "world," then… forget I said anything.
『Ghost Spider』: …So what Veyron-san just said ans…He's not even afraid of planetary-level threats anymore?!
『Catwoman』: ???Did I miss sothing? When did the conversation jump to these insane power levels I don't understand??
『Hellish Blizzard』: You didn't miss it. Or maybe we all missed it.
『Earth's Cancer 』: (Watching quietly.jpg)
『Ordinary Human』: Haven't tested it yet, but honestly, I think if I went all-out right now…I could probably crack the planet.
...
Veyron wasn't bluffing.
After the trip to the Treeborn World, [Divine Ki] had undergone yet another transformation thanks to the newly absorbed traits.
With all the boosts stacked together, the total bonus power from traits alone added up to 30 points.(3 6 9 12 = 30)
And since each single point doubled the base power of Divine Ki...
So the final multiplier? 2³⁰ — a total of 1,073,741,824 tis.
Even if a normal person had their punch powered up by over one billion multiplier, it would already be terrifying. But the base power of his [Divine Ki (Lv. 49)] was anything but ordinary to begin with.
And that wasn't even counting the fact that he also had telekinesis and the Gene Lock tier 4 control—a level of precise control that allowed him to attach a thread of telekinetic force to every single strand of Ki he used when striking.
The synergy of those two powers together? It was unbelievable.
Not to ntion the rule of his Gene Lock—situated in the exalted "Final Multiplication Zone." Sure, it didn't boost his stats directly, but the results were insane. Just activating Stage Four was enough to multiply his combat ability by at least a hundred tis.
So yeah, even without layering on even more effects—like power-stacking sword arts or energy-releasing techniques—when he looked down at this beautiful blue planet under his feet, he couldn't help but feel... like it might be a little too fragile.

『Earth's Cancer 』: Sir Veyron... have you already reached mid or high level of the fourth-stage Gene Lock?
Fujiwara Chika racked her brain. That was the only way she could explain how ridiculously fast Veyron's power had skyrocketed.
『Ordinary Human』: Nah. Still just at early Stage Four.
『Ordinary Human』: I just made so breakthroughs in other areas.
『Catwoman』: So what you're saying is... if your Gene Lock level rises again, then on top of your current "I can probably blow up a planet" state, your power will shoot up even more, right?
『Catwoman』: (cat shocked eyes emoji)
『Ordinary Human』: Assuming everything goes smoothly... yeah, that's the idea.
And honestly, Gene Lock was more of a long-term plan.
In the short term?
If everything went well in the Type-Moon World, and he managed to extract Mana, then his Divine Ki would get another boost. From 3, 6, 9, 12... It would beco 4, 8, 12, 16...
That's another 10-point boost.
If he also gathered enough experience to level up from Lv.49 to Lv.50?
Based on the current "base ×3" growth formula, that'd an another 15-point bonus.
But if he extracted Type-Moon mana first and entered a "base ×4" growth model, then he'd be looking at a 20-point bonus.
And what would that an?
15 points (2¹⁵) = 32,768x multiplier
20 points (2²⁰) = 1,048,576x multiplier
So lv. Divine Ki Lv.50 with x4 base after getting Mana trait? That's 2⁶⁰. 1.15 Quintillion.
"And that's why exponential growth is actually insane once you start stacking it."
"Now the Math is finally mathing."

(A/N: Just clarifying the numbers since things got insanely big)
→Million is 10⁶ and so— 2²⁰ ≈ 1.05M
→Billion is 10⁹ and so— 2³⁰ ≈ 1.07B
→Trillion is 10¹² and so— 2⁴⁰ ≈ 1.10T
→Quadrillion is 10¹⁵ and so— 2⁵⁰ ≈ 1.13Q
→Quintillion is 10¹⁸ and so— 2⁶⁰ ≈ 1.15Qi
The MC is sohow about to be here when he gets the Mana, and for the future:
→Sextillion is 10²¹ and so— 2⁷⁰ ≈ 1.18Sx
→Septillion is 10²⁴ and so— 2⁸⁰ ≈ 1.21Sp

『Catwoman』: ...
『Ghost Spider』: We still don't get why the system chose to give you the nickna 'Ordinary Human' of all things. 🤦♀️
『Earth's Cancer 』: Fr
『Earth's Cancer 』: Please stop roasting ... the real normal in this group are already questioning their existence.
『Avalon Lady』: When it cos to system decisions, I advise you not to overthink it. 😏
『Ordinary Human』: ...
Honestly, he couldn't even bla the system for this. The nickna wasn't its fault. He was the one who wrote it.
After all, back when he first joined the group, he was just a guy with a Lv.20-ish basic sword art and a barely-developed Red trait. No one, including himself, expected things to escalate this fast.
『Avalon Lady』: I'm free whenever. Want to co over now, Veyron?
『Ordinary Human』: Uh… I've still got a few things to handle here. Give a bit. I'll reach out once I'm done.
What things?
Well… nothing urgent.
Just that, after wrapping up his official business, the Dark Elf Queen turned out to be a bit too enthusiastic. So, yeah… it might take him a while to, uh, disengage.
