After making a few more empty threats to scare off what seed to be a king and his round table, I finally disconnected my connection with the hologram and looked back at the ss I had created.
When I had connected to their hologram after feeling several eyes lingering over , I had gone along and killed the remaining beasts that were alive at the ti.
Even though I had done that though, their souls were not even close to having enough energy within them to satiate , and therefore I was left mildly satiated yet still in a maddened state.
I was not 'mad' per se, instead, I was simply a little too reactive to everything that I saw and felt.
At the mont, it felt as if all my emotions had been heightened to the brim, making cry when I felt an ounce of joy or roar when I felt an ounce of anger.
Due to this, I chose to stay on the plain landscape doing nothing but sitting and looking around.
[Why are we still here? You killed the last of them a long ti ago and if I am not mistaken, the king might send over a few people to kill you after the sh*t you said to them.]
'Ah? Well, I don't think they would be doing that. I am soone who was able to take over the hologram and feel their eyes from dozens if not hundreds of kiloters away. Not only that, their best scout had been out-scouted and for all they know, I might know every single thing about them and they couldn't do anything to stop .' I shrugged nonchalantly, but for so reason, I could feel as if Hela narrowed her eyes at from within.
[You don't want to go back because THEY are there, right?] Hela asked, yet I did not make a single reaction.
After a while, I looked up at the sky and replied while releasing a heavy breath 'If you can read my mind, why ask the question anyway'
[Making conversation. Also, I wanted to see how you would improvise a lie out of thin air. Always makes laugh]
Hearing her reply, I could not help but chuckle, but a few seconds later, I went back to looking at random things again.
[Your emotions are almost back to normal]
'Then let's wait for them to beco normal and then we can depart.'
[Yes, but it would be better to go now and by the ti you get there, you would have returned to normal]
After hearing her retort, I sighed again, this ti in annoyance rather than amusent.
Looking around, I widened my eyes and finally replied 'I forgot to burn the corpses'
Springing up from where I stood, I walked over to all the different corpses one by one, burning them with my gluttony fla and leaving nothing but scorched ground behind. I was doing this with a little too much joy, a joy that Hela picked up on almost imdiately.
[You enjoy this too much]
'I enjoy this to a degree, you an' I retorted, however, before I could skip my way to the flying beast that I had killed before, I notification popped up within my retina, flashing with golden letters that shifted like a burning fla.
[Ding]
[Mission had been updated]
[Consu the equivalent of souls of 3000 Advanced ranked entities and above 2980/3000]
[Note: The stronger the soul, the more units the host will receive]
[Difficulty: B
[Reward:
-Transformation
-Evolutionary trait (2/2)]
[Changes are as follows-
Consu the equivalent of souls of 20 Peak Liquidus Stage Souls.
0/20]
'What the fuck?' I cried out inwardly
[Changing the mission at the last 20 was always the plan. I just couldn't tell you until you got there, after all, I am not the one who sets the requirents, the heavens do]
'Fuck you' I replied, not caring for her explanation.
[I am trying to help]
'Still, fuck you'
After I burnt the rest of the corpses and 'consud' their soul energies and mana whole using my gluttony affinity that I had embedded into my flas, I finally looked towards the city and sighed, knowing that I had to go back no matter what.
'I guess we are walking it' I smirked, but the only thing I got in return was a 30-minute lecture that I knew would only stop when I got to the army camp outside the city
When I had gotten near the camps, I forced Hela to shut up due to thinking I had felt a familiar mana signature, but after thinking about it for a bit, I simply shrugged, thinking that it might have been soone else's mana signature or even Elaina's mana signature for all I knew.
Hela chose to stay quiet as well, letting sink everything that was about to happen before I actually got to the city. She knew that I did not want to see my family, but seeing the outburst of emotions soone who had consud a Demi-God bloodline shouldn't have, she concluded that not seeing them was simply not healthy for any of us.
When I finally neared the camp close enough to not have to use my divine eyes anymore to see it, yet far enough so that other people wouldn't be able to feel my presence or even see .
Seeing where I had gotten, instead of retracting my armor like I would have normally done, I closed my eyes and turned my armor into the sa clothes as my guild uniform, making sure that I would return with the sa clothes that I had gone with.
Finally, I sighed one last ti and finally landed on the walls of the city before looking around.
I couldn't feel the presence nor the mana signature of the person that I had felt before, making conclude that the person either left before I had co or had simply died, either of which being extrely likely.
When I finally landed in front of the tent that my grandmother had been staying in, my gut feeling imdiately told that there was sothing wrong, making instantly dash back, flickering away and appearing again on top of the largest tent on the campsite, recusing my weight to just the right amount which allowed to stand on top of the tent without it collapsing under my weight.
Finally, I looked towards the tent my grandma was in with narrowed and activated divine eyes, finally seeing everything that was within without anything being hidden from my vision.
In the next instant, my eyes suddenly widened as I saw sothing, or in particular, soone that I had hoped to not et at least until I joined the army or even went to the academy.
'Mom? Dad?'
