Opposite Nix who was holding the very sa dagger in which Astaroth dwell was himself. He was wearing a sinister smile and looked down on Nix. He couldn't control the split of consciousness. He was indeed able to perceive his mind and be stable but his other consciousness raged through. The ability to control his body was even superior to his very own.
The footwork, the way he carries himself, the way he held the sword, the unwavering eyes, everything was top notch and superior to how normally he used to be.
His body tore into the dinsion and reappeared behind Astaroth.
{Ohh, I have underestimated you! Your past self should have been a well, versed in battles as you.}
He said with a smirk and faded like a speck of dust and appeared in a far distance.
He parried his sword again tearing his entire room in a slash and rushed out following the ghost of Astaroth. Astaroth's title as supre was not just for show. His agility was unparalleled. Others just thought of Nix as a mad man since they couldn't see what he was battling with. though he did not pay heed to those.
Astaroth flew to the roof piercing the ceiling while Nix just teleported. Unlike Felishia's ability, he was only able to do it at a particular distance but, that was incredibly fast. It was the sa ability he used to escape during the siege of Ranrak, Spatial traverse.
He did not clearly know the essence of how to it yet, his body led him and he followed by. They both continued their play even though they reached the streets.
{Follow those emotions and accept them as your very own. Devour the consciousness.}
Though Astaroth advised him he did not know how to do so. Within a few seconds, Nix fell limp grabbing his chest as his heartbeat at a very high rate that it would have been busted if he used it a few more minutes.
{Hmm, if your body was in a transcendent peak. You could have easily sled your sword through .}
"Transcendent peak?"
{Peak is just a term I used. But, Transcendent ans reaching the peak of your mortal existence. For a given mont you did achieve it. Your physique was not on par with the ability's prowess though. A state where you can sever souls. A way of the sword that could destroy the entire existence.}
"Could you explain in a clear form?"
{There are two paths a mortal can choose one is the road to godhood. The other is holding on to your existence and attaining Transcendence. Transcendence hones one's own soul and makes it beco stronger. This is a very hard path. Godhood is sothing like gaining divinity.}
'DarkNix reached Transcendence then?'
He thought and said.
"Then shouldn't there be many transcendents?"
{It is not easy. One should find a way to sever the ties with ti and enter the world of space. It will take over a thousand and thousands of years but, out of all. It may differ from person to person. It is similar to Path. But you will hone your soul and your vessel. One will lose their sanity in such conditions. But the reward is the ability to even kill beings like us and escape the clutches of getting their souls devoured by the likes of our existences.}
"Thousands of years? That's unbelievable. A normal man's mind will shatter in such a condition. I an... you will lose concentration get bored by the thods you use. Would possibly even suicide because of frustration."
{That's why I said that is a hard road. You are rather gifted... I am truly envious of your re existence. At the sa ti, I pity your enraged soul that suffers and burns to enact revenge.}
{I do not know what happened but, you've reborn, or sent these through ti. You've reborn for the purpose of revenge. I wouldn't dare try to pull such a stunt to suffer again. I truly applaud your past.}
Astaroth said with a smile and continued.
{I would love to have a face-to-face conversation with such a man. Compared to you he seed to have honed his skills and mind. He had achieved Transcendent status to unshackle himself from the clutches of gods.}
"Aren't you praising quite a lot?"
Nix said with a smirk as he entered his clan house which was ssed up by them both.
"Nix what happened to you?"
Cinzia asked as soon as he entered in.
"I was testing a new ability. It ended up into a ss."
He shrugged and walked to the stairs and entered his room once again. A few of them questioned him too, which really tired him up before reaching his room.
His room was completely wrecked and broken. There were several rifts and cracks. The furniture was all broken including his cupboard. Though the bed was quite better the cushions were torn as well.
Placing a cigar on his mouth he laid atop of the torn bed. Since he needed rest after using that ntally destructive ability. Even berserk activated on its own. Regeneration can only heal him but cannot just control the physical pain and the training he went through.
"What do you suggest? Should I use this ability?"
{I suggest not to. Your physique and mind couldn't able to handle it as far as I can see and you have to grasp control over your heart to mix the emotions into a single thread instead of multiple lines. It's like a spectrum you have to intersect them or align them into a single line. In tis of ergency just use it though.}
Astaroth said sitting next to him.
"Intersect ans I have to use my emotion and override the flow. Align them into a single line in the sense use my emotion and align the others by overwhelming the other flows that they fall into the overwhelming emotion?" Nix asked.
{I would say rage is your strong point. Although you are controlling it recently. That's the one that can overwhelm the other emotions. Apart from all that you still act on your emotions. Who have to train the four pillars of growth to have stability. Heart, Mind, body, and soul. Everything is nonuniform as such you are volatile that you cannot really have confidence and be sure about your victory.}
"Indeed nova manifestation is a very volatile one that I cannot freely use the abilities and draw our full potential. Thats very random and I do not know its full potential."
{True, it seems you have several mixed abilities. In any case what are the innate abilities you possess?}
"Innate ans inherent or private right? I have like three. Truth eye, Doom prediction vision, and Nova manifestation."
{What? three?}
Astaroth asked in surprise.
"Yes...Is that a problem?"
{No but this is my first ti hearing about soone possessing three inherent abilities. My speculation is that the three abilities are indeed a single one that had separated into three, They must have a strong connection to each other. It might soon rge into a single one.}
"I do feel the sa way. They are interconnected to each other as well." Nix agreed with a nod after finishing his sentence.
{Well-Well we wouldn't know until you find whats your past's secret or whats your purpose to send such clues to you. Apart from those, I wonder what's your purpose?}
"None, I want to unravel the secrets while becoming strong and survive without getting into the ss of the gods."
{Tch, you really do not have ambition. You do not have desires like becoming a god? In the very least king?} Astaroth frowned.
"Well, I don't know a way to even fight the demigods and a re fucking ghost like you. So how the hell will I even rich the level to threaten gods. I am just a random guy who created a clan to enact revenge on a man who abused and a king who banished but, in the end, they were all pawns of the gods and when I want to beco strong a problem arises. It's like I am blocked of my growth with a huge barrier!" Nix said feeling frustrasted.
{Haha, I can understand your feelings. This is what happens when so from the bottom try to reach the zenith. The ones who are already on top wouldn't just let you reach what you want to perceive. Anyway, I going to sleep.}
Astaroth said as though it was not a big deal and entered the dagger.
'That guy was right..."
Nix muttered and closed his eyes lying on the bed.
"Darling, would you want to sleep in my room?"
Rosalie asked erging from the shadow.
"Nah, I wanna take rest now..."
Abruptly another woman knocked on his door and this ti it was an Angel.
"You are really lucky. I an look at you. There are a lot of won around you and now even an angel has co to have a threeso along with a vampire."
Rosalie joked.
"Greetings lord Nix."
Yeril said kneeling before him without showing any emotions.
"Stand up. And may I know why you wanted to et ?"
Nix said raising his body from the bed to know what so urgent. Since she was covered in sweat and very anxious.
