My Power is Upgrading Everything (Rewrite)

Chapter 112: An Incoming Meeting in the Underworld

--- Chapter 112 ---

Dragon Nest Compound, Grayfia's House Backyard.

"Is this the item called "Rune Stone?" rumored from the Dragon Nest?"

Azazel carefully grabbed a black-marked Rune Stone from the table and felt enormous yet wild energy coming from it. He had never felt such a weird sensation before. As if this was coming from another world.

He sighed and commented, "What am I even thinking? Of course, it's from another world."

"Still, Runic Magic exists there? I mean in the Douluo Dalu's Universe."

"About that, my Shishou taught me and others about runes." Huo Yuhao replied casually. It makes Azazel confused clearly because someone like Huo Yuhao has a teacher. What a surprise.

Azazel had many questions but knew that Huo Yuhao wouldn't answer them all in one sitting. This guy always liked to play things mysteriously exactly, like those cultivators.

"Just sit down and absorb the spirit ring." Huo Yuhao said while yawning.

"Imagine the rune stone is the water source, and the spirit ring and its essence is water that flows down into your body. Guide it to your martial soul and absorb it."

"Bee~!" The black goat suddenly kicked Azazel again.

"Ouch!" Azazel rubbed his back.

"Bee~! Beee~!"

"Don't tell me my host is stupid, she said." Huo Yuhao shared it with Azazel because he could understand the black goat through the Voice of All Things.

"Bitch." Azazel slapped the black goat's rear.

"BEE!!" The black goat was annoyed.

Huo Yuhao watched the governor-general of Grigori, and a black goat clash with each other, rolling in the backyard with annoyed expressions plastered on their faces.

"Fuck it." Azazel threw his trenchcoat and revealed a thick vest he had prepared for Huo Yuhao's absurd actions. After the last madness with Vali, he couldn't take any chance of him dying because of friendly fire.

"Bee~!" The black goat sneered and charged toward Azazel.

BOOM!

They clashed fiercely against each other, wrestling in Grayfia's backyard with a loud booming noise. Huo Yuhao was speechless because this scene reminded him of a specific anime in the past.

'Err... I expected something great, but an adult man fought a black goat under a shining sun.' Tian Meng commented while eating chips made of Huo Yuhao's spiritual core leaf. It's nutritious for her spiritual body.

'Dayum, he slammed that goat to the ground~!'

'Oh!! The goat is kicking him in the back!'

Huo Yuhao heard Tian Meng narrating the fight and smiled wryly because this lazy sister worm became more leisurely. At least her power helped him with a foundation to reach Divine Origin Realm later.

'FINISH HER~!!!' Tian Meng cheered for Azazel, who suplexed the goat onto the ground.

"ORA!" Azazel yelled, lifting the goat with a red face because his martial soul was heavier than he expected.

BAM!

The black goat fainted and groaned, "B-Bee..."

"HAHAHA, know your place, trash!" Azazel laughed while breathing heavily. This goat has more stamina and power despite its small size.

Huo Yuhao facepalmed and commented, "Why are you so proud of it, Azazel? You're literally a defeated goat that is barely an adult."

"So you're beating a kid and happy about your achievement."

"..." Azazel.

Azazel felt a weird sensation in his chest because a slight irritation blinded him for a moment. He looked down at his fainted martial soul, laughing in defeat because today was more frustrating than usual.

"Damn... I feel bad now."

"At least you're in the right mind now." Huo Yuhao flicked his finger and threw the black-marked Rune Stone on the ground to Azazel. "Anyway, crush that stone and absorb it."

"You have better odds now, considering you have KO the goat."

Azazel caught the rune stone with his hand and returned, "Okay, stop doing that. I know I'm the one at fault here."

He put on clear-framed glasses, a magic tool to clear one's mind from cloudy thoughts, and crushed the stone with his bare hand. He watched a black halo appear out of thin air and observed the foreign object.

"It's emitting some sort of energy, Spirit Energy..."

Azazel sensed a wild energy of a living beast from it and asked, "Huh, you didn't lie. Spirit Rings do hold the remnants of a spirit beast."

"And you said a 100.000 years old Spirit Beast could rival humans in terms of intellect?"

Huo Yuhao shrugged and answered, "It's bloodline things. If the Spirit Beast possessed a rare or divine bloodline, the stronger they are than others."

"For example."

"Bruh." Azazel's eyes widened in awe.

He saw twelve gray angel wings unfurled from Huo Yuhao's back and flapped gently. Unlike Angels and Fallen Angels, Huo Yuhao's wings didn't release an ounce of light/energy and possessed a weird aura of holy yet tainted instead.

"Even though the amount of wings doesn't directly correspond with one's strength, people with this privilege usually were talented, right?" Huo Yuhao questioned the fallen angel.

Azazel nodded and returned, "Yes."

Huo Yuhao smiled and continued, "It applies to the Spirit Beast and Human from my homeworld. Even though the bloodline didn't relate to one's strength, it still indicates that you could grow more powerful than others. They usually grow faster too."

"Not saying people with no bloodline are weak and talentless, but you can't ignore this matter because there is no such thing as fairness here and there."

"Some people are lucky like me, and some are not."

"However, people with nothing special are what makes them special because they are like a blank canvas that could get painted into a beautiful art."

"That still doesn't explain how you have those wings, though." Azazel narrowed his eyes.

Huo Yuhao chuckled playfully and didn't even bother to answer Azazel's suspicion, telling the fallen angel to absorb the spirit ring before the black goat woke up from sleep.

[Name: Azazel] contemporary romance

[Age: More than 800 years old]

[Potential: SS+ Rank]

[Recommended Paths: Warlock, Demonic Goat-Fallen Warrior, Magecraft Grandmaster, Dragon Nest's General Advisor]

Huo Yuhao checked Azazel's potential and wasn't disappointed because the fallen angel has high potential coupled with these unique suggested paths.

"Still, Advisor, huh?"

"I hope your mind would be helpful for us, Azazel." Huo Yuhao smirked slightly.

With a small step coming from behind, Huo Yuhao glanced back and saw Grayfia bringing a glass of icy lemon tea on a ceramic tray.

"Yuhao-sama, refreshment," Grayfia said while bowing her head slightly.

Huo Yuhao shook his head and replied, "Fia... You don't have to be so formal, you know?"

Grayfia kept her professionalism and stated, "No."

"As a maid, I have to know my place, Yuhao-sama. You accepted me as your pitiful servant, and I shall fulfill with the best of my ability."

"I-I see..." Huo Yuhao was speechless. Grayfia's face glistened with pride for a moment there.

Bing Di knocked on Huo Yuhao's spiritual sea and suddenly warned, 'Don't get fooled so easily, Yuhao! I'm sure this devilish woman is just as perverted as Tian Meng!'

'OY!' Tian Meng was displeased when hearing this accusation.

'This great me isn't perverted.'

'You may call me cultured and not a pervert. It's fucking different!'

'Can you two calm down for a day?' Eluxia sighed and covered Helena from these bad's influences, using her spiritual control to create a powerful tape and close these fools' mouths.

'It feels like babysitting three babies right now.'

Huo Yuhao ignored his contracted souls' antics and grabbed the icy lemon tea. "Well, thanks for the drink, Fia." He said while sipping the refreshment made by his maid.

Grayfia remembered Huo Yuhao's previous order and said, "Oh yeah, Yuhao-sama. I have scheduled a meeting with the Great King Faction in the underworld tomorrow morning at 9."

Huo Yuhao was surprised and returned, "So fast?"

She tilted her head and replied, "I thought you wanted to settle everything quickly?"

"..." Huo Yuhao never thought Grayfia would take things like this.

"Good job."

He sipped the icy lemon tea solemnly and thought having a maid wasn't that bad. It's not like his life is unorganized because Huo Yuhao believed he had more discipline than anyone. However, an assistant that could help with trivial matters is essential.

Liu Mei technically does this job too, but she is more of the Dragon Nest's Secretary than a maid. Even though Huo Yuhao could call the Queen of Thunder anytime, it would disturb Dragon Nest's functionality.

"Grayfia, give me all documents and information related to the Underworld after the Great War." Huo Yuhao suddenly requested.

Grayfia was confused and still answered, "I'll gather them all by this evening, Yuhao-sama."

"Do you have more orders?" There is a hint of expectation in her voice.

Huo Yuhao finished the cold drink and replied, "No."

"Oh wait, what devil clan will be our host tomorrow?"

Grayfia smiled and answered, "Bael Clan."
