Vengeance of the Returner

"You will be needing a team to enter that deep... Who are the people you'll be selecting?" Asked Rosalie.

"That's something I have to worry about later on." He shrugged.

"So leaving to your room now?"contemporary romance

"Yes," He replied with a nod and opened the doorknob, and began walking as she followed.

"hmm, What do you have in mind?"

She said leaning on his shoulder.

"Truth to be told... I want to raise my levels and sharpen my skills."

"In the first place...Are you fully recovered?"

"Yeah,"

"Then if you want I can train you."

"Hah, well... if it's training I have a mentor."

He said and looked at his side where Astaroth was floating with a smile giving a thumbs up to him.

"I see but, aren't you already skilled enough to fight a transcendent?"

"I am worried about physique and increasing my physical prowess. I want to be on par or higher against existences than what a human can fight."

He replied to her.

"Well, as you say. You already possess such capabilities... You just need to increase your physique to be able to wield them judging from the damage your muscles, mana neurotic system took after using Nova energy."

'I still need to increase the Rank of Doom prediction vision and Truth eye...'

He muttered to himself and entered his room bidding farewell to Rosalie.

His room was renovated after the huge commotion he caused. There was a lot to take in. 

Looking at the ceiling he recalled everything that had happened. He was banished the very day others gained classes. Rebecca who he thought of as an enemy at first has become his ally. The king he swore to kill was a kid. Facing a siege he left the city. Made friends with a man called Waltner.

Went on a journey with a bunch of criminals in the name of protecting goods and got blocked in the middle by another group of scums. In the process, he allies with a few people who were enslaved later got in trouble. In the process, he went through humiliation, abuse, and trauma.

Which shifted his mindset. He was not in the right mind when he forced those slaves and draconians to suicide, thinking back it was not his trait and seemed like a complete sociopath.. resulting in Tyga and Tundra's death. 

He has seen through his past and few flashes of his past all the while he reached the point where he is at. He went through a lot along with Cinzia and in turn saw her closed ones die. He fought with two gods and in the process decimated them.

There were several experiences he wouldn't have dared to even imagine his wildest thoughts. 

He was still in the dark and didn't understand what his entire purpose was. Heredia and the three gods what did they achieve or what was their motive?

He was still waiting for her reply. When he approached Yeril she was not able to make the divine connection as well.

In the end, he had to wait for her to contact him. The very next day morning, Nix woke up in a startle as the sun rays fell on his face sliding through the window.

Surprisingly there was a visitor inside his room who he was expecting. It was Camila with Heredia occupying her soul.

"Looks like you've healed from the wound..."

"Yeah- Yeah, get in."

He uttered annoyedly and sat on the edge of the bed and turned his neck her way as she waited near the door. 

"Hmm, I heard you've been waiting for me to contact you."

"Well, you just made me fight your war without giving any proper reasoning." He shrugged.

"Young man your participation has saved future intervention of the Depravers of Corruptism and the followers of corrupted gods conquering this continent."

"My participation? How come?" He questioned.

Heredia smiled and slowly walked into the room and began speaking.

"When you fought... Your prowess was exposed to countless depravers that had intruded in the war akin to the Ralugerism followers. In the end, Chaos mainland would've become a land of crimes. You are feared by the other continents, and believed to be transcendent." 

"In simple terms, my play in the war had given time for you gods to once again stabilize your power over this continent..." Nix phrased casually.

Camila, No Heredia began laughing and slowly began speaking.

"Haha, I won't deny but, you are being observed by Depravers. Your city will soon be swindled by the demigods you defeated..."

"Heredia, You vile-natured woman. Are you conveying I'll be dead and lose everything? I'll just warn you this once... If anything happens to my companions I swear I will bring you down from the so-called Heavens and rip you from your godhood along with those three gods you allied with." Nix said casually.

He clearly knew he has a long way to even kill a demigod with his own strength.

Heredia smiled as Nix ended his speech and began her talking.

"My~My, aren't you cruel? I'll send a guardian angel and an archangel into your town who are capable enough. And yes, I won't demand you to build me a temple or send my followers to pursue to build one. I am lending you forces and If you have time visit the chamber of gods to have a conversation... "

She stopped and looked at Nix's eyes and continued.

"The three gods are pleased with your participation as well and they wish to reward you."

"Though it's good to hear. I believe it's too good to be true. Wouldn't I need to give you authority over my soul?"

"Indeed, that's how you gain levels isn't it?"

"Heredia, I am not a naive man anymore. I will speak further and demand what I need." He said with a smile.

"Hmm, you are certainly cautious I wonder what you will demand..." She said with an evil smile on her face as though she already found what he has in his mind.

Nix smiled back at her. She didn't receive the title of the goddess of wisdom for a show if she cannot even predict something like what his demand truly was.

"Then I'll be going..."

"Wait... Firstly I want to clear up two things."

"You may proceed."

"What is happening in Ether world and why didn't you contact me for over a month."

"There was a fight between higher existences. I cannot explain any more than that."

"Alright, secondly, I want you to release Camila's soul. She isn't able to handle your manifestation. I'd like to have conversations in a different way."

"I do not understand what you see in a bland soul like hers. But, with Respect to our ally, the Imperator of the Entropy. I'll abide by your wish."

Her way of speech seemed rather professional yet, he couldn't take what she said about Camila. To gods she might seem like an insignificant soul but, for him, she was a precious companion, a friend, and his lover. 

"Heredia I thought you possess a character similar to that of humans but, you sure do have that god complex... I hope you'll change that perception of yours."

"I see, You are challenging me. Your perception will change as well when you obtain our level of power..."

As she finished speaking Camila fell unconscious on the ground.

'These alien assess surely possess fucking god complex...'

He muttered inwardly.
