"You alright?" Michael asked as he flew beside Mikhail.
The air was pretty stale, and the mana was getting a bit distorted around him. However, that only lasted for a mont before he disappeared.
And imdiately, an angry voice was heard inside Michael's head.
This is bullshit.
'...Maybe they are busy?' He tried to lighten up the situation. However, that seed to only put fuel into the fire.
Busy? Busyyy? Do you even know who I am? What right do you think they have to be busy? It hasn't even been that long since the last ti I saw them, only a couple of million years. How could they just up and disappear like that?
'Calm down...' Michael sighed in exasperation. While the situation was dire, the system was acting a little bit too childish.
Shut up... Look, I will put this in your previous world terms so your stupid brain can understand. Imagine you create a company and retire, only to find out the ones you left your company to took all your wealth and threw you under the bus!
'Don't you think they might have seen the situation is not as bad as it seed? After all, I did not turn into a demon.'
You are being hunted ans you are being hunted. Is that so hard to understand? In most cases, an angel cos down to get you. In my case, or I suppose, our case, one of the archangels should have co down and dealt with the situation accordingly.
Michael rolled his eyes at the system and proceeded to flap his wings upwards, making him accelerate at an unbelievable speed, until finally, he found himself above the clouds.
Now that he finally had a chance to cool down and take a look at his progress, he noticed that his changes were imnse.
First of all, his actual mana capacity had increased. He did not know how that was possible, but now, it was at least four tis what it was previously.
The sa went for most of his stats. He could only assu that was the case because of the pain he had experienced.
As for the locked affinities, he would not bother with them currently. Although they were locked, according to the system, he was already using wings made out of the Origin affinity, whatever that was.
He could hear the system mumbling inside his head and decided to interject. 'Stop moping around already. What's done is done, no? Instead, why don't you tell about the Origin affinity?'
Figure it out yourself. It's not that difficult to understand. Besides that, I think you've done all you ca here to do. It's about ti you head out.
'...I suppose.' Michael shrugged it off and flew back down into the room. Looking for the note he had seen earlier, to his surprise, it was lying on the ground perfectly intact.
He was told to take it to so man nad Alpher, and that's exactly what he was going to do.
The door opened with a squeak as the few servants huddled not too far away jumped in surprise. It seed like they were not expecting to see him.
Or it could have also been due to his appearance. He had not learned how to fold the wings yet.
As for his clothes made out of mana, they had a couple of colors mixed in, the main ones being golden, black, and lastly, white.
Nonetheless, Michael asked around, trying to get so information on Alpher, and after just a few minutes, soone was able to lead him in the right direction.
Checking the map in accordance with the information he had received, he headed straight toward one of the yellow dots he had seen earlier. It seed like that person was the strongest in the castle aside from ph.
However, he was still no match for Michael.
Quickly arriving in front of a luxurious-looking door, Michael slid the note under the door and headed out. There wasn't any point in interacting with the man. He would not et him again anyway.
'Where to...' Michael thought as he seamlessly made his way out of the castle. Despite the fact that he had wings, at most, people were just surprised and shortly after stopped paying any attention to him.
He had done most of what he planned on doing before leaving Verdusk. This continent did not hold many mories either, aside from his ti back in the orphanage.
Even then, those mories were only special because Rebecca was there. Now, however, he was unsure of where she went along with Amanda.
But now, it was finally ti to let go and actually go wherever he wanted to, unburdened by responsibility.
Rebecca had managed to convince you to go to Aldion, so you can scrap "the wherever you wanted to go" part.
'Right...' Michael facepald and flew back into the sky. It was more preferable that way. The sun was still shining brightly while the clouds acted as so sort of cover, making him less likely to be detected by so unwanted guests.
It also served as a protective cover against those who wanted to expose the Saint. If they saw he had black wings now, they would have a field day calling him a demon.
He sighed inwardly, and while looking at the map, flew south, heading straight for the Daor continent.
The uneasy feeling had still not gone away. He was just glad that he was able to brush it off easier than he expected. After all, if an archangel were to descend and not listen to the system, he would be dead, scattered to dust like the previous Michael.
Just thinking about it sent shivers down his spine. Your journey continues with empire
Nonetheless, the pace at which he was flying was many tis faster than his speed on the sword. Coupled with the fact that he was barely using any mana, it made it seem pretty overpowered.
But as he thought that, his curiosity peaked, and suddenly, he infused a small amount of mana from his spine into his wings.
It seed like his flying had sped up by at least twice the speed, but considering the amount of mana used, he was not satisfied.
Michael kept infusing more and more until finally, the air around him started ripping his skin to pieces, causing him to imdiately slow down.
All the while, he had not paid attention to the map, and upon taking a glance at it, he noticed that Daor was not that far away.
He managed to shorten the ti of travel by days with his little trick. In exchange, he used 10% of his mana. It seed like his mana had managed to regenerate quite a bit during the ti he was hunted, since it was currently at 24%.
It might not seem like a lot, but considering the fact that it had increased, made his jaw drop in awe. Had it been the sa him the day prior, the flight over here would have cost around 40% of his total mana.
You sure are enjoying yourself. Anomaly.
Michael's brows twitched at that comnt as he shot back, 'Oh? You finally stopped whining?'
I'll have you know, once soone is being hunted, they are logged into a certain system, aning no matter where they go, an angel would always find them.
'Did you miss the part where it said hunt stopped?' He asked as he slightly sped up his pace toward the continent. He was extrely close now.
There was a small settlent right beside the ocean, and that's exactly where he was going.
You still popped up into the system. Once soone checks it out, they will stop at nothing to find you.
'And I assu you would be there to help out, right?' He asked matter-of-factly.
I wonder...?
'...' Michael ignored the system's teasing as he finally managed to catch a glimpse of the city he had seen on the map.
It wasn't massive, neither was it small. An average-looking city that, at a glance, did not seem to have anything special about it.
No fancy technology like Vivum, and certainly no floating castles like the Elarion, or well, the previous Elarion.
He landed a few kiloters away from the city, just so no one questions him, while at the sa ti, making a massive cloak that would make it look like he had massive greatswords on his back, instead of the black wings.
With that, he headed inside, his objective being to find the portal to Aldion.
