Chapter 72 - . (EDITED)

nIgnoring Dante, who was still in shock, I opened the Stats section in my to look at the improvements from the centauri Kavach's stats, that were added through the system's safety mode.

n_____________

nOn top of the Centauri Kavach's additional stats (i.e, STR 15, AGI 15, VIT 25, End 25, SPR 15), there were also the Looted stats that I gained every time I exited Inverse mode.

nWith them, my Overall stats reached '630', which was why my 'Estimated level' showed LV.37, bringing me on par with a Mid-Phase Tier-3 Being.

nAs the last preparation to fight against the High-Phase Tier-3 Aerial monster, I used to temporarily limit my Strength Attribute to by 5 stats.

nStrength: 130-5Lt -> 125

nWith all 5 main Attributes in Equilibrium, automatically activated and you have entered the State of Harmony.

nA cooling sensation spread through my mind, as I magically gained off the charts control over my 5 Main Attributes.

nAfter entering the state of Harmony, I didn't directly leave for the Aerial monster's habitat.

nInstead, I decided to make a short visit to Olivia's group and leave Dante with them, so that I don't have to babysit him while I fight against that Aerial monster.

nWith Hobgoblin MJ protecting their group, I don't need to worry about Dante's safety.

nWell, with his Fate stats, Dante could survive just fine even without MJ's protection.

nBut, I wanted him to focus on increasing his , so that he could help me in tracking down the Grade-4 Spirit Fruit I was looking for.

nAnother reason for intending to visit Olivia's group, was to give Andrea a Party Invite.

nFrom MJ, I learned that Andrea trained her Innate Talent Mastery during the 18-hour rest period, and brought it to Stage-3.

nBut to save my Grandfather, she needs to at least have Stage-4 Mastery in the Light Element.

nWith her Grade-8 Innate Talent, it wouldn't take long before she reached the peak of Stage-3 Mastery, but going past that was an entirely different topic, due to the existence of the 1st Universal Limit.

nStill, it wouldn't be much of an issue, considering that Andrea had an Grade-8 Innate Talent.

nSo, by accepting my Party Invite, Andrea could solely focus on training in her , without having any need to level up on her own.

nAfter that, I would leave there and go towards the Aerial monster's habitat by myself.

nSince Hobgoblin MJ was with Olivia's group, they wouldn't be in any danger whatsoever.

nOnce I decided on my course of actions, I asked Dante,

"Did you consume any food in the last 3 hours?

"

nHearing that, Dante replied in puzzlement,

"No, but why do you ask?

"

nInstead of answering him, I looked at the description of one the Centauri Karach's Inherent Skills, .

n_____________________

n (Rare Grade): Able to use suction force to pull any object or lifeform towards the user as long as it weighs less than the user.

nRange: 1000 meters.

nCost: 10 spirit Energy per use.

n_____________________

nCompared to the Skill's information that was transmitted to my mind, it's description was rather vague, because the uses and applications of that skill were numerous.

nOne of them was to use it for high speed movement.

nBut, before I activated it, I passed my Stream Wind Sword to Dante, and asked him to hold onto my Stream Wind Sword as hard as possible.

nEven though he didn't understand why I was asking him to do that, he still complied.

nI lifted my left arm and pointed at the top of a tree that was 200 meters away from me and murmured,

"Isolated Suction

".

nSince a 20 meter tall Tree weighs more than me, who weighed in at around 1600 pounds, I was pulled towards it at high speeds, just like a pebble that was fired from a slingshot.

nAt such speed, it took me just a second to traverse the 200 meter distance.

nIf not for me using the psychokinesis ability of Olivia's Innate Talent to deviate myself at the end, I would have crashed into the tree.

nWith no more suction force in action, I began to fall back to the ground like a stone that was thrown at a 45 degree angle.

nBut, before I landed on the ground, I once again activated upon another tall tree that was 300 meters away from me.

nBy repeating the same process, I continued to travel towards Hobgoblin MJ, who was with Olivia's group.

nSlowly, I increased the range of until it reached its maximum.

nWith my enhanced vision, it wasn't a problem for me to have a clear look at a tree that was a kilometer away.

nUnlike how it took me a second to cross 200 meters, it took me 5 seconds to reach the tree that was a kilometer away.

nIn my mind, MJ analysed that my velocity while using was 200 m

/s.

nIf not for , I had to at least be a Low-Phase Tier-4 Lifeform to move at the astonishing speed of 200 m

/s.

nDue to the Skill, , the always stuck floating closer to me.

nAs for Dante, he held onto the like a koala hugging a tree branch.

nThere wasn't any problem for him to cling on the Sword since the skill was active, and with that, he basically holds on to the soft layer of wind around the .

nEven with 30 Stats in the Endurance Attribute, Dante still had to close his eyes, since he didn't have goggles to protect his eyes at high speeds.

nWith around 600 points of Spirit Energy, I didn't shy away from continuous usage of , which consumed 10 Spirit Energy per use.

nJust like that, it took me less than 3 minutes to traverse 23 kilometers (14.3 miles), and Olivia's group soon entered my vision.

n******

n-----Sergei's P.O.V-----

nJust like what was in the agreement that Olivia had with me, she made me her Company's Chief of Security in the 18-hour rest period after Day-2.

nWith the information she collected on the remaining members of the Assassination Organization, that had tried to kill my daughter and me, I began my hunt.

nThe concealment abilities of my Grade-8 Darkness Innate Talent made it a cakewalk for me to infiltrate past any security detail, and take down most of the higher ups of that Assassination Organization before the rest period ended.

nBack when Olivia recovered from her near death state, the System announcements mentioned that she turned into an 'Omega-Chosen'.

nEven though I didn't exactly know what that meant, I became sure that it was even above the title 'Alpha-Chosen' from the pressure she unintentionally gave off with just her casual gaze.

nIt was totally different from a Tier Suppression, as I felt an invisible oppressive force upon my Innate Talent, rather than my physical body.

nLater, she controlled the Innate Talent suppression that exuded from her, and told us not to ask her anything regarding the incident that happened just then, as that she would explain it when the time is right.

nEven though Olivia didn't tell us anything, I had a hunch that everything has to do with the man who stood at the top of the Trial World Leaderboard rankings.

nBy the end of Day-2, Olivia even surpassed me in the Leaderboard rankings.

nEven though Olivia didn't need me with her new potential and how fast she levelled up, she didn't waver any of our agreement conditions, and fulfilled her end of the deal.

nAlong with her honesty, her leadership, and capabilities to analyse and deal with any situation in a calm and collected way, only made my admiration grow for her.

nSo, I decided to follow Olivia and help her gather more of Earth's Alpha Chosen before the tournament began.

nWhen Day-3 began, Kasim and Andrea started with sharing their opinions and thoughts on the change in the duration of the Trial Program.

nBut from Olivia's expression during our discussion, I could tell that she knew something about it, but she didn't mention anything and instead diverted the topic to hunting monsters.

nThat only increased the centainity of my hunch that everything had to do with the Hobgoblin's master.

nBut I didn't voice my thoughts, and following that, we began hunting monsters without being careful of any monsters, since we had the all powerful Hobgoblin Monster protecting us.

nAn hour passed while we were at it and then all of a sudden, Olivia froze in her tracks and turned to face north.

nI extended my 'Shadow Sense', which was an ability of my Darkness Innate Talent that let me sense any movements of Shadows within a kilometer radius.

nThrough that, I sensed a shadow heading straight towards us at a breakneck speck.

nI alerted the others in our group and all of us took a defensive stance, except for the Hobgoblin monster, which did something that I didn't expect such a powerful monster to do.

nIt kneeled on one leg with an expectant look on its face, as it looked at the direction of the incoming shadow.

nLooking at the Hobgoblin monster's actions, a sudden realisation dawned upon me.

nIn the next second, a loud bang resounded a few meters in front of us as if two cars collided against each other and earth momentarily shook, as we were hit by the waves of wind that were caused by the crash.

nOnce the dust settled, there was a 4 meter wide crater visible at the crash site, and at the centre of that crater, there stood a man in a golden black suit, with a long sword vertically floating half a meter behind his back.

nMy suspicions were confirmed, when I heard the Hobgoblin Monster's words,

"Welcome, Master.
