It was obvious Athena wanted to obtain such power and most likely pick The Fool, who has unlimited potential… but I assu with the blood of gods flowing through my veins, I'm sowhat similar to that condition.
"I won't be your pawn, grandma,"
From now on, my goal is to obtain skills within the tarot power section of my status, and then once both my prince of blood skills and tarot powers have been polished to the utmost max… I'll combine them.
I saw on the internet while still in the overworld that combining skills is actually possible, and if that is true, then, of course, I won't hesitate to give them what they want in exchange for it.
By combining these two god-given skill sections… I'll form my own originality.
…
Since that fateful day, a month has passed, and it was ti for to finally complete this by pushing my body to its ntal and physical limits.
I felt my lungs set alight with a blazing demonic fla that just wouldn't let go of my internal organs.
It spread further and further until I could no longer feel my body, yet sohow, my body still moved on its own.
Through the repetition of this process, I had created an instinct that caused my body to fight even past its limit, but that only carried so far.
So, as my body defended against the dwindling number of aggressive servants, I made sure to use my skills properly and make sure that they were actually used to their most efficient and greatest potential.
Wasting just a single drop of mana would result in dying, so while I began to push myself to my physical limit, my ntal limit was also approaching this insane ceiling.
"Huff… huff… huff… huff… This is the first ti I've co so far…." I muttered, given a chance to rest as the remaining servants, which were around thirty people, kept a distant periter of eyes around .
They observed like they were watching a rabid beast that was ready to pounce and leap out of its cage, chewing through the tal bars and ripping their faces off.
Most were silent, but so were actually heaving for air just a bit, allowing to know that I was doing sothing correctly.
"Hm… alright…"
I had been torn out of [Influence of Battle], but it was a conscious idea since I really needed the extra bit of mana.
From the number of servants left, I knew I could keep track of most of them without having an overhead view, but the only downside was that the exhaustion of my body ca flowing right back in.
So, using [Breath of the Snowy Underworld], I cald the adrenaline within my body till my flesh had basically beco stone.
No, my entire being was like that of a stone as I pushed this passive skill to its limit, making sure to slow down the world around .
The good thing about this skill was that it cost no mana, but that doesn't an I can just use it for free.
If I use it too often, my body won't be able to keep up, and my organs will begin to develop frost, creating the chance for when the fight is done, I'll actually just drop dead.
In fact, my body was slowing down even as I began to move and create heat, so I intended to finish this quickly.
All the pain within my body was numb, not like I felt most of my body anyway, but slowly as the servants began to charge in, trying various formations to catch off guard, I planted a seed right below my foot.
The dark aura surrounding injected itself into the tough floor, but after all the shattering moves and cracking that had spread across the room, it was easily able to penetrate it without much trouble.
FWOOSH FWOOSH TING TING TING TING
I guarded carefully, attacked surgically, and eventually dwindled the numbers down to a clean twenty, but I felt my body pushing its limit once again.
My supernatural breath can only do so much against the forces of such godly beings who stood before .
Although, the thing I had been slowly controlling had finished its final waltz and suddenly shot from the ground below each and every single servant.
There were too many before, but now that the numbers had dwindled to such an easy number, even my near-empty mana pool can pull this off.
"[FREEZE]!" I shouted with the influence of my ancient tongue, tearing my throat to shreds but giving just enough ti to split every single servant present in the room.
I had won… but soon dropped dead upon seeing the last-ditch efforts of these pitiful people letting out their last breaths.
"Ugh… shit,"
There were gaping holes in my torso, legs, arms, and even neck, causing my vision to tilt all the way until my head severed from my neck and my consciousness disappeared.
…
The sound of a faint beating glow, like an angelic heart pumping ichor throughout the depths of the world, slightly greeted .
When I awoke, unsurprisingly, Ares and Arachne were lenient, allowing that past tie to be counted as a win for .
I was the only living thing in the room, with all of the other servants presumably returning to their positions within the godly palace.
Slowly, I looked to the side and found a paper vibrating a dim golden glow with the following information on it.
.
[Human: Lu Bu]
[Specialty: Spear]
[Difficulty Level: A ]
.
"Another teacher quest, huh? So… you want to master the way of the spear or sothing? You think my skills are subpar?" I turned to the towering man behind .
"Absolutely not, but compared to the foes you'll face in the future, you'll need his training," Ares responded before letting out a hand to help up.
Slowly, I took it before a glowing purple portal revealed itself behind .
"But, you may go back now. No need to use that item straight away… you can save it,"
"Thanks… I guess"
