Abyssal Lord Of The Magi World

Chapter 111 - See Beyond Good And Evil

Zatiel did not move for an entire week, and the only thing he did was continue devouring those giant cubes of meat as he maintained his body's metabolism multiplied by one hundred.

Normally a Rank 0 Animus could not maintain this condition for such a long time. Still, since Zatiel was using the magic from the Rank 3 elder brain's mind and the immense life force and vitality that his bloodline gave him, he did not find it difficult to keep going for this long without resting.

Of course, there was still the mental fatigue, but the feeling of his power growing at such an impressive speed was truly satisfying for Zatiel, so he did not find any problem in maintaining his concentration.

He would have wanted to keep training for more time, but unfortunately, the date that Heinz told him the kingdom members would arrive to create his magic tower was approaching, so he needed to go and meet them at the agreed location.

Zatiel stops consuming the cubes of meat and deactivates his Mind Power before slowly opening his eyes.

Due to the changes in his body in such a short time, Zatiel could not objectively appreciate his new power, but luckily he had the A.I. Chip help, so he commanded the chip to scan him.

"A.I. Chip scan my body and show the difference between my previous stats and the present ones."

"Bip... scanning host

Race: Neo-Demon (Rank 1, Daybreak Bloodline)/ Animus (Rank 0)

Strengh: 67.3--->71.4

Physique: 117.8 --->143.7

Speed: 89.8--->95.2

Abyss Aura: 120.3---> 121.1

Sun Force: 90.2--->127.6

Bloodline Heart: 65%--->89% completed

Elemental Chaos Heart: 100% completed

Note: Host bloodline has been designated with the name Daybreak, due to the absence of information about the original carrier of bloodline and the host being considered the new origin of this one."

When Zatiel fought with that man, they never spoke, and in the dream he had during his advancement to Rank 1, no information about the identity of him or the other eight individuals was.

He was sure that if they were still alive, they must have already made a name for themself in the universe and maybe even created a civilization under their command since the power which they were born was equal to a Being of Laws.

His demise when he was an Abyss Lord was not much time later than that fight, so he did not know about them, and now he did not have the means to get that type of information.

But all that disappeared from his mind as he saw the impressive rise in his stats.

'Excellent!, each day spent with my metabolism multiplied by one hundred times is equal to the energy I could consume in three months of devouring high energy food. My Bloodline Heart and Sun Force will be fully matured with another week or so, and I will enter Peak Rank 1.'

His speed and strength did not improve greatly since they are connected to the nurturing effect of the abyss aura and organ transformation by the Chaotic Core. But the creation of a new heart will always improve one's vitality and life force, especially if it is one as special as the Bloodline Heart is.

As for the fact that despite all that energy he consumed, his Abyss Aura only increased less than one point, Zatiel knew that before advancing to the next Rank, no significant increase would be available to his energy pool.

The one thing that bothers Zatiel was that his Mind Force was not expressed in the chip's chart.

'It seems that is not able to quantify an intangible power as Mind Force yet. When I advance to Rank 2 it abilities should increase and be able to display then.'

The chip's abilities grow as he advances in the Ranks, and although he wasn't able to see the actual stats, he knew that this week of training had at less alowed him to improve a little Mind Force.

Zatiel looked in Dante's direction and was a little surprised to see that the boy as already reached Rank 1, but it didn't take him long to figure out how he did it.

Since the boy was also an Animus, just like him, he could increase his metabolism and speed up the abyss aura's growth.

"A.I. Chip, scan him."

"Bip... scanning the target.

Name: Dante Daybreak

Race: Neo-Demon (Rank 1, Daybreak Bloodline)/Animus(Rank 0)

Strength: 25.9

Physique: 47.1

Speed: 40.8

Abyss Aura: 45.9

Sun Force: 42.5

Bloodline Heart: 0.1%

Elemental Chaos Heart: 0.2%"

The boy's stats were very similar to his own when he advanced to Rank 1, but it was expected, after all, Dante's body was made from his stem cells, and they shared the same bloodline with an equal purity since he was his direct descendent.

Dante opens his eyes as he feels the scanning force and immediately recognized it as the one generated by the A.I. Chip.

The boy looks at Zatiel and approaches him.

"You will remain here for the time being and use the dome to improve your power. Do not use your Mind Force to increase your metabolism inside the dome, as it could make the elemental chaos blend with parts of your body other than your original heart."

"Yes, father." Dante agreed immediately.

He likes to be in a place where there are other young people with whom he can interact, and also, the more he learned about those with whom he shared his race, the prouder he felt, as the atmosphere of camaraderie and brotherhood were always present.

"You will have a task while you are here. It is to understand the power and abilities of everyone in here and train military tactics with them, focusing on blitzkrieg attacks or lightning wars, that takes advantage of the lack of awareness of an enemy and deals a swift and potent attack before they have the chance to set a proper defense."

Zatiel knows that he is not very talented when it comes to leading armies. A quality very common among Abyssal Lords since they usually only commanded their demonic legions to do a task, and as long they complete it, they do not care how they do it or the number of deads.

But the boy has the ability to run hundreds or maybe thousands of different scenarios on his head without a problem. If he focuses on commanding an organized army, the power he could display will be much more than the mere sum of their members.

"Yes, father!" Dante was excited with the idea of leading an army of Neo-Demons in battle and probe the power of their race.

But when Zatiel saw this, a complicated expression appeared on his face before kneeling and looking at the boy directly to his eye.

"Listen to me, my son, you were born from my soul and had my bloodline coursing through your body, and because of that, they will follow your every command due to the love and respect they have for me." Zatiel looks at all those kobolds and feels glad of having them as his race.

"But never forget this, we are going to war, death is inevitable, and we can't say for certain that we can bring them back. They are the first of our kind, and despite the risk, they will not hesitate to give their life in the name of our race progress."

Reaching this part, Zatiel stands up, and he releases a sovereign might as he looks at Dante again.

"So you will use every second of your time to create the best tactics that will allow them to display the greatest power they can, and if they die, then they must do it with the honor and dignity worthy of our race. If they fall, due to your lack of preparation or ineptitude, then even if you are my son, you will pay the price of your mistakes."

When Dante heard those words, all the excitement left his face, and he understood that his lack of experience made him commit a huge mistake. He did not understand the responsibilities over his shoulder.

But after a moment, all hesitation leaves his face and is replaced by a strong will and determination.

"I will not fail you, father, nor will I fail my race." Dante gave a small bow before going to the dome.

Zatiel did not stop giving his mighty aura until Dante entered the dome, and once he did, his eyes displayed warmth, and a gentle smile appeared on his face.

'The fire of war will mold you, Dante, into someone that can carve his own path.'

Zatiel knows that what he will do during this invasion could be considered truly evil, and it will be too much for the boy to be part of it before he grows a little.

'I will protect you from those horrible things I will do for the time being, but eventually, you will have to learn to see beyond good and evil and understand the true nature of the universe.' Zatiel gives a final look at the dome before leaving the cave and meeting the people of the kingdom.
