Chapter 708 First Revelation
Chapter 708 First Revelation
?
Although Fein knew that he won't die with his infinite degu energy that supplies his regeneration capabilities as a vampire. Regeneration only regenerates his health and injuries, not his physical stamina or physical energy. Now, even his mind was too exhausted.
Fein's eyes widened in shock at Niki's confession. He had thought that Niki had invited him to Laughing Phantom because he was genuinely interested in his abilities as an SS-rank degu user. But now it seemed that there was a different motive behind it all.
"What do you mean, Niki? What was your true purpose?" Fein asked, his voice laced with suspicion.
Niki simply grinned, his eyes glinting with amusement. "Oh, don't worry about that, Fein. You'll find out soon enough. Let's just say that I have big plans for the future, and I needed someone like you to help me achieve them."
Fein scowled, his fists clenched at his sides. He didn't like the sound of that at all. What kind of plans did Niki have, and why did he need him?
As if reading his thoughts, Niki continued. "But enough about that. Let's talk about our fight. You put up a good fight, Fein, I'll give you that. You even managed to surprise me a few times. How did you managed to obtain high-ranking demon bloodline and yet stay completely fine? But in the end, it doesn't matter, there was no way you could beat me."
Fein gritted his teeth, feeling a surge of anger at Niki's words. He knew deep down that Niki was right, that he couldn't compete with someone on the level of an SSS-rank degu user. But that didn't mean he was going to give up without a fight.
"I may not be as strong as you, Niki, but I'll never stop fighting. I'll keep getting stronger, don't forget I broke all your records."
Niki chuckled, his eyes glinting with amusement. "I like your spirit, Fein. But let's face it, the gap between an SS-rank and an SSS-rank is too wide for you to ever bridge. You'll always be a mere mortal compared to someone like me."
Fein bristled at Niki's condescending tone, feeling a surge of anger and frustration. But before he could reply, he was interrupted by a loud gasp from Melissa, who had been watching the fight with wide eyes.
e?glesn??el "Oh my god, Fein! Are you okay?" she cried, rushing over to him and checking him over for injuries.
"Mom, don't come near here. It's dangerous you know?" Fein winced as she prodded at a particularly sore spot on his shoulder, but he didn't have the heart to tell her that he was fine. Instead, he simply nodded, trying to ignore the pain.
Kidd, who had been watching the fight from a safe distance, finally spoke up. "Hey, Niki, you said something about being able to kill thousands of SSS-ranks with one shot. Is that really possible?"
Niki grinned, his eyes glinting with amusement. "Oh, it's more than possible, Kidd. It's a guarantee. You see, I have abilities that far surpass any other human on this planet. I have the power of hyperspeed, the ability to manipulate time, and even the power of the Dark Hand. There's no one who can stand up to me."
Fein gritted his teeth, feeling a surge of anger at Niki's arrogance. He knew that he couldn't beat him in a fight, but he refused to back down without a fight. With a fierce determination, he stepped forward, ready to continue their battle.
But before he could say anything, Niki held up a hand, his eyes flashing with a strange light. "Not now, Fein. This fight is over. But don't worry, we'll have plenty of opportunities to fight in the future. And who knows, maybe one day you'll even be able to give me a real challenge. Now, since you want to know what is my purpose why I want you here. I'll say it..."
'But didn't you just said that you don't want to say it?' Fein felt that Niki was playing with him.
...
Fein's mind was reeling with shock as Niki stood before him, revealing the stunning truth about their origins. Melissa, who had been watching the battle from a safe distance, was now standing beside them, her eyes wide with disbelief.
Fein struggled to process what Niki had just revealed. "What...what are you talking about?" he asked, his voice barely above a whisper.
Niki's expression was serious as he looked at Fein. "We are both fragments of a 10th dimensional being," he repeated. "When that being died in battle, fragments of its essence were scattered across the universe. You and I are two of those fragments, essentially clones of the original being."
Fein's mind raced as he tried to make sense of what he was hearing. "That's...that's impossible," he said, shaking his head. "How could we be fragments of a 10th dimensional being? And why didn't you tell me this before?"
Niki sighed. "I didn't tell you before because it wasn't relevant to our battles. But now, I feel that it's important for you to know the truth. This is also my purpose..."
Melissa stepped forward, her eyes fixed on Niki. "And you've known this whole time?" she asked, her voice incredulous.
Niki nodded. "I was lucky to have some memories intact from the 10 dimensional being. That's why I have so much knowledge and was able to rise to SSS-rank so quickly. There's still a realm beyond SSS rank, and I'm about to ascend to it in another hundred years. But that's not my goal. My goal is to obtain the power of the tenth dimensional being!"
'Realm beyond SSS rank? Become 10th dimensional being?' Fein's mind was still struggling to grasp the enormity of what he was hearing. "So...what does this mean for us?" he asked, his eyes fixed on Niki.
Niki's expression was serious as he looked at Fein. "It means that we have a destiny, Fein. A destiny to discover the truth about our origins and to fulfill the purpose of the 10th dimensional being."
Fein's mind was racing with questions, but he didn't know where to begin. "But...why did the 10th dimensional being die? And why did it create us as fragments?"
Niki shook his head. "Those are questions that we may never know the answers to, Fein. But we must focus on our destiny, and on discovering the truth about ourselves and our purpose."
Fein's mind was still reeling with shock as he looked at Niki, his eyes filled with a mix of disbelief and determination. "I don't know what our destiny is," he said, his voice firm.
'The fuck? I'm a tenth dimension being's fragment? But I'm a fucking transmigrator!! System, can you explain me if Niki was saying the truth!?'
