A white light shone brightly on the top of a building as Reign arrived back in his territory.
One glance at the territory was enough to let him know that nothing had happened as the people were rrily walking around and showed no signs of panicking or being worried about anything.
The traps that he and the others had placed were still there, although so were lost and so had been used multiple tis as they were not a one-ti consumable type of trap.
Reign placed a hood on his head and used his darkness manipulation to make himself less visible and to lower his presence to its minimum. This was his first ti using his darkness manipulation, but he had seen Shadow use it multiple tis and all of them talked about their abilities and how they worked in order to have a better understanding of each other so that they could fight better as a team.
With the words that Shadow had said about using his ability to lower his presence and visibility to a minimum, Reign tried his best to copy it, and found it relatively simple, at least in the beginning.
His darkness manipulation was after all much more advanced than Shadows, although severely limited in this form.
He was also able to sense that contrary to Shadow's darkness, he was different.
While Shadow's darkness mostly focused on allowing him more stealth and powerful corrosion, Reign actually had no access to said corrosion.
His darkness was different, it was at the sa ti more simple, but yet more complicated as well as it focused mostly on destruction.
He had a feeling that he would be able to more easily copy Shadow's [ Darkness Implosion ] skill than his stealth ability or to even try to get the corrosion powers that the latter's darkness had.
With that in mind, Reign wondered just how different other people's abilities are.
His lightning, for example, focused on improving his speed and penetrative power to its maximum. In the beginning, he used it mostly to shock the enemies so that they wouldn't be able to move easily, but as he grew more powerful, and the monsters he faced beca stronger as well, most of the paralysis he was able to inflict was gone as the monsters were more resistant to it.
Perhaps there were other lightning users that could paralyze enemies with greater ease, but would lose out on the speed and penetrative buff the lightning gave them.
It was only now that Reign was able to realize that having an ability didn't necessarily an that one could perform the sa things another person with the sa ability could.
Reign jumped from rooftop to rooftop and made sure nobody was able to spot him before he arrived back in his building.
He entered the building and was t with Greenie who had already taken up his hamr and was ready to pounce and attack him.
"Stop, stop, it's !" Reign quickly shouted as he took off the hood and showed his face to Greenie who suddenly breathed out deeply.
"Mast – Reign, you're back!" Greenie exclaid happily as he put his hamr down and hugged Reign.
"I didn't think you would take such a short amount of ti, most people are still unaware of your disappearance."
"I thought sobody tried to sneak in, maybe a spy that has gotten wind of you and the others not being here, so I prepared for a fight, but to think you have already finished your evolution, that's great!" Greenie spoke with great excitent as Reign smiled at him.
"But, why were you wearing a robe and had a hoodie on?"
"I thought it would be best if nobody were to know I am back yet, hopefully, the others will have similar thoughts, I only regret not telling them beforehand that we should lay low after coming back since I thought that we would once again be transported back to the center of the territory where everyone can see us."
"But, I did have a particularly 'easy' challenge, which ans that the others will probably need a lot longer to go through their evolutions." Reign said as he sat down on the couch before looking at Greenie.
"I noticed that so of the traps were gone and that so had been used, what happened."
"Nothing major, a couple of monsters that were of Tier II attacked, I don't know how they ca here as they shouldn't be able to co here without losing most of their strength."
"Hmm, the zones have already started changing, or the enemy has so sort of skill that allows them to move their monsters through the zones without suffering any penalties, no matter what it is, it's bad news." Reign said with a heavy expression on his face before sighing suddenly.
He got up and stretched a bit before tapping Greenie on the shoulder.
"I'm going to see Eldar, I have sothing to discuss with him."
"I trust that you'll be fine without ?" Reign smiled at Greenie who smirked at him before nodding his head.
Reign simply nodded back before putting the hood back over his head and leaving the building before making his way over to the teleporter.
He entered and quickly made his way to the castle, fully aware that Eldar and Jack were looking at him from the office on top of the castle.
Upon making his way to the top, he opened the door without even knocking as Eldar's voice was heard the mont he ca up to the last floor.
"I see that you have finally awakened, Reign." Eldar smiled at Reign as he and Jack sat on the sofas. He motioned Reign to sit and Reign nodded at his words.
"I guess you ca here because you want so answers, right?"
"Yes." Reign nodded as Eldar poured so coffee for him before sighing.
"Well, first of all, as you are well aware, I knew of your situation from the very beginning, well, the fact that you were a Nephilim."
"Even Jack wasn't aware of it from early on, but I was lucky enough to encounter one of you a long ti ago, so back when you first made contact with mana, I was able to recognize the weak mana signature that ca from you, making well aware of what you were."
"I thought about what I should do back then, perhaps I should contact the higher-ups and tell them of my findings, but honestly, it was a stretch and they probably wouldn't believe the words of a simple Transcendent, especially not when it had anything to do with Nephilims."
"Sir, I already know so things about the Nephilims, I … I t with the ancestor through my visions and he, together with my copy told so things, but I was also told that you can give more information."
Eldar and Jack both froze at his words.
The cup of coffee that Eldar was holding started shaking and coffee started spilling out. Jack simply crushed the cup in his hands upon hearing the words before gulping heavily.
"You – you say you t with the ancestor, are … are you sure about that, Reign," Jack asked him with a heavy voice as Reign simply nodded.
"White robe, white hair, looks like he is in his twenties, has the na Raziel, it should be him."
"I – I don't know what his majesty looks like, but I do know of his na, that much is well known throughout the entire universe." Eldar suddenly said with a heavy voice before staring at Reign.
"Can you tell us what you spoke, and what you already know?"
"If his majesty has allowed it, of course." Jack further added from the side as Reign simply nodded at them before telling them everything that he had learned from Raziel, Aethion, and from his dark copy.
"Incredible, not only did you et his majesty through a vision and had two full conversations with him, but you actually have support from the copy, that must be the first case of sothing like that happening." Eldar suddenly said with a confused expression on his face.
"Why, is that really that rare, and what is up with people being so shocked, isn't Greenie being a Vajra also big news, they are also amongst the most powerful races of the universe, right?"
"Yes, but not as rare, not nearly as rare, Reign." Eldar suddenly said as he sighed.
"There are probably millions of Vajra's in the universe, which although seems a lot, is nothing when you factor in just how many beings are in the universe, hell, there were wars where the casualties reached billions."
"As for Nephilims, from what I know, there are only a couple of tens of thousands of you in the universe."
"As for why it's such a big deal, well, it's simply because the Nephilims are not only considered to be so of the most powerful beings in the universe, but because you are the only race to exist that can control both light and darkness, alongside having the ability to control souls, no other race has such ability and power, none."
