Into The Portal: Monster Invasion

Chapter 195: Another Vision

Chapter 195: Another Vision

There were many things Miles could use to escape from Quinn. The wing orbs were one of such, but the reason why he didn't and let Quinn win was that he realized just relying on dual elemental orbs and going to the main arena wouldnt allow him to win at all.

In the main competition, there would be tens of super-strong hunters who would use Frenzy-Rank orbs and energy to win against him. He might have counter a few of them, sure, but some would eventually best him. Instead of winning with petty tricks, Miles decided to let Quinn win instead.

After leaving the competition, Miles removed his armor while teleporting and left the area with his face covered. Tian Ling and his men were waiting outside, but he was in no mood to deal with them. He slowly walked towards the stronghold and planned his next steps.

Now that he was at the peak of the third tier, he had to use the fourth serum. But the fourth serum wasnt a regular one. As the last one of the G-Series, it would construct the body after demolishing it. In normal cases, not even all peak Form-Rank hunters would dare to use it despite being able to use energy.

I really didnt think I would come this far when I stole that medicine from mother. Miles shook his head helplessly. His only path of advance was using serums, but using them without advancing first was akin to teaching a pig how to fly. Although he could clench his teeth and bear pain with the first three, the last one would kill him.

What are you going to do? Coin asked, seeing Miles was troubled with the issue. He was as helpless as Miles on the subject.

We will figure out something Miles shook his head and left the stronghold to return to Earth.

When Miles returned to his apartment, Rayen was in school. They would have a field trip to Portal World soon and would be away from home for some time. It would be the best time to use the serum lest he worried her.

Miles laid on the couch and thought about how to use the serum when he felt a connection at the back of his head. He felt it several times ever since he accidentally shared his vision with the leader of the Starve Cleric. He felt the feeling was similar, so he knew this connection beckoning him. But because of drastic side effects, he didnt want to answer the summon.

I have used two mind serums and will be able to use the third one in a short time. Maybe the side effects will not be as severe. Miles thought to himself and focused on the feeling pricking back of his head. When the darkness vanished, he was in a similar throne room once again. This time his view was not from the throne but he was mounting over a petite girl. Miles recognized the girl as soon as he laid his eyes down to her, well, not his eyes.

The girl was the blood lady she encountered in Umbra Forest, the daughter of the Leader of the Starve Cleric, Elfrun. She wasnt wearing her mask and her clothes, indicating her ranking in the organization were also not on her. She was wearing a training suit black in color, and a headband holding her hair.

She had stripes blood red in color on her visible body parts, which were emitting heat and fumes visible to the eye. Her posture was subtle indicating she knew what she was doing.

Very good, my daughter! You are already at the peak of the Grace-Rank and will form your seed pretty soon and then your ultimate. From then on, we will see which branch you are excelling at. Voice came from Miles's body. It was the same mighty voice of Degenhard, the leader of the Starve Cleric.

Thank you for your help, father! Elfrun respectfully answered. Bloody red stripes vanished from her skin, and she relaxed her posture. I am ready to take action if you will!

Hmm! Degenhard nodded, Carry on with it, and bring me good results!

I will not fail you, father! Elfrun answered and left the room.

This feeling again. I feel weird. Degenhard muttered to himself after Elfrun left the room. It is like someone is watching me, but I cant find anything. Not even god can spy on me when I am here.

The connection ended with it, and Miles appeared in his living room once again. He had a head-splitting ache, and he was feeling tired. He felt like he hadnt slept for days. I am better at coping with it, but it is still not easy for me to spy on him, it seems. Also, it was shorter this time, so it might be the cause.

What was all about the seed and ultimate? Miles thought to himself. He knew from his father and Merlin that energy had branches, and each person had a different affinity to different branches, but he didnt hear anything about the seeds. He decided to call Merlin without delay and find answers to his questions.

After a few seconds of ringing, top naked Merlin appeared on the virtual screen. He was in the training room of the Cross Mansion and there were several guards on the grounds, wincing in pain.

Hello, little brother. It is rare for you to call me. Merlin wiped his sweat with a towel and asked with a smile.

Hello, Merlin. I heard something I wanted to ask. Do you have time? Miles asked with his lips twitching. Merlin was still a monster it seemed.

Sure, what is it? Merlin asked as he sat on a chair. Maid arrived and gave him a cocktail while covering his body with a satin cape.

I heard someone mentioning forming seeds when awakening energy. I wonder if you know anything about it. And excelling at a branch, what is that about? Miles asked after putting his thoughts in order.

Where are you? Merlin asked with his eyes squinted.

I am at home. Why? Miles asked with surprise. He wasnt expecting Merlin to act bizarrely.

It is not something I can talk you over by video call. I will come over after a shower. Wait for me. Merlin said and ended the call without waiting.

What was that about? Miles scratched his head in confusion.

It must be something important. Coin shrugged his imaginary shoulders as well.
