Chapter 315 Progress so Far - End

Likewise, with the Martial Artist army, they were also given a chance to use the Heavenly Scroll of Infinite Paths to unlock suitable external and internal arts. Most of them did not have the kind of transcendent talent that Dante or Beatrice did, so they ended up with mostly Mortal (1 level) and Earth (3 levels) grade Internal Arts.

Their external arts were pretty good and could be cultivated to the Martial God realm, but without huge stats to boost them up like Dante or Beatrice, they had to move slowly through the levels using resources and talent.

Luckily, with the Enhanced Energy Elixir, their progress was far faster than even the most talented disciples within the True Martial World. This was what gave them the confidence to be deployed to defend the various territories and act like an internal police force to keep order between the various powerhouses who were forced to come here based on the agreement with Dante.

This was a perfect arrangement for them since they were stationed in one place without much fighting and mostly internal conflicts that required great strength to resolve, allowing them to spend most of their time cultivating diligently.

Taking everything into account, this year had been one of extensive progress, Dante thought to himself as he sat in the command seat and pondered what to do next. He had stopped going out to capture new territories a while ago because his current Spire Point count had surpassed the 4 million mark.

With this amount, he could buy targeted superpowers 400 times, but Dante knew that this was a drop in the bucket compared to the extensive list of technology-related superpowers he had seen back then.

Now, rather than buying them all in order to complete a puzzle, because doing so would require nearly hundreds of years of continuous capturing by Dante, he was rather aiming to buy extremely versatile powers and piece together the authority – or a part of it – bit by bit.

Dante had a slightly impatient expression on his face as he called out Levi and asked him the same question he had asked many times this year.

“How do I gain an authority or higher-dimensional power?”

Levi was speechless and sighed tiredly. “I have told you countless times, to get the former you must be granted it. You cannot get an authority from scratch or hard work; they are all held by the creator and shared with other beings. Lara only has hers because she was the first-ever being created and holds a special place in the creator’s heart.”

“As for higher-dimensional powers, they are obtained by reaching the higher-dimensional form of life. It’s literally a simple equation. As you are currently, there is no way for you to reach such a stage even with all the resources in the world because of your affiliation with the Cosmic Tree.”

Dante did not react much to this, as he had heard Levi’s revelation more often than not, but he needed to see if there was any change after the last time. While he always believed in Levi’s abilities, Dante also believed in himself as well as Beatrice’s judgment the most, so from the first day Levi gave his answer, Dante began seeking new ways forward based on the initial idea. .

As such, after hearing this from Levi, he sighed and took the Truth Beast within his quantum space to a certain corner where a certain being was kept in captivity like a zoo animal. It was naturally Lara’s clone from the Centralis Universe.

This clone sat within a caged area, with quite luxurious decorations provided by Dante. She spent most of her time drinking some form of beverage that was like tea while muttering to herself like a madwoman, but her visage was always prim and she never seemed to be wonky.

When she sensed Dante appear, she put down her cup and stopped muttering as she glanced at him coldly.

“What do you want, mongrel scum?”

Dante sat himself right outside her cage in his interrogation chair and crossed his legs like a gentleman, glancing at Lara within the cage with interest. He had already noticed this long ago, but whenever he appeared, Lara would glare at him with absolute hatred for as long as he stayed there unless he engaged her.

As such, he didn’t play this game with her. Rather, he tried something new.

“Tell me about the creator and the usurper who stole them from you.”

Lara’s reaction was as intense as he expected, her pupils constricted to needle points as if she could see past Dante to a face she hated more than anything in the entire universe.

“You dont deserve to… urghh… He was just like you, just like you!! A filthy lesser lifeform, how dare he steal her from me? How dare he?!” she immediately went crazy as she began screaming and clawing at her head.

Dante turned to Levi. “Help her out, bud. IRt’s refresh her memory.” Levi nodded with enjoyment, knowing that revealing this story would call back Lara’s trauma, which was something he craved ever since she saw his fate under her hands in Dante’s illusion-built world.

“‘He’ has a name. Luka Sanguis, the young man who changed the scale and future of our universe forever.” Levi started slowly, but it was enough to ignite a barrel of explosives.

Energy exploded from Lara’s clone wantonly that swept through the quantum space, various elements that were not supposed to be present in this semi-dead space surging out, being created from nothing due to Lara’s authorities.

“LURA!!! LUKA SANGUIISSS!!” She went absolutely mad and began virtually thrashing about, as if this name was like salt to a snail or a fish taken out of water.

Anyone who saw her like this would be worried and concerned because such behavior was not normal, but Dante and Levi simply looked on coldly, the former thoughtful and the latter with schadenfreude.

“Myra Orbis, our universe’s grand creator, was a child goddess created by the Supreme Origin and the ‘father’ of all the gods, Deus.As she was infantile at the time, she sought to create something in her image.”

“Since Deus, whom she perceived to be her father, had white hair and she also naturally possessed white hair, she created you in the visage of what she expected to look like when she was older.”

Levi revealed a secret that caused Lara to stop and tremble with his next words. Oln other words, she was trying to create a mother figure, or an elder sister who could guide her and be her trusted family.”

She stopped her mad bout and glanced at Levi with a hint of horror. “How? You are merely some inferior lifeform created by this cretin…! Even if you are all affiliated with a high level Eternal, this is a core secret only four beings could possibly…”

Suddenly, it was as if Lara was struck in the face by a hammer. She became breathless and dizzy as her eyes widened. In this moment, she seemed to look at Dante and see past him, past his existence to the being behind him that granted him power.

She seemed to be able to see the majestic cosmic tree that would leave any being breathless, but rather than that, Lara saw through the grandeur to the exact being behind this.

“It’s you! It’s always been you, no wonder!! No wonder!!” She practically screamed as she stood up and pointed at Dante.

“Hahaha! I understand! I understand now!! You are doing it again! It is you again, that’s how this cretin’s pet knows!” Lara kept repeating the same ‘its you thing over and over while laughing madly, as if her discovery had solved all her questions.

That caused Dante to glance at Levi, but even the Truth Beast was not entirely sure what was going on. As such, Dante could only focus on his soul space and glanced at the Cosmic Tree that was ever present and ever majestic in the background.

There was silence from the tree in response to Lara’s ranting, but Dante knew it could probably see and hear everything he did. Sensing Dante’s questioning intentions, there seemed to be an androgynous sigh that sounded in his mind.

“Reach the S Rank in Quantum Entanglement and we can talk.” He received this direct feedback from the tree, causing his expression to become slightly serious.

Dante had long reached the peak of the A Rank, but he had never crossed to the S Rank because he had feared the kind of reaction from his breakthrough, not to mention he was currently obsessed with gaining an authority.

To Dante, the quickest way to be able to deal with higher- dimensional beings and the like was to have an authority, which was true. However, Levi’s words over this period of time had fueled his stubborn side, and he worked even harder toward this goal.

That was why he had even been pushed to come and seek advice from Lara, trying to upset her so that she could subtly reveal if there were any other ways to acquire authorities or how to meet the so- called creator to see if he could get one for himself.

After all, if one could grant such power to a being like Lara, how was he – Dante – any worse?
