Lingling.

It's been a month since Vahn gave that name to the Chaos that became her companion.

Thanks to becoming the familiar creature of the Goddess of Battle, Lingling naturally gained a position as a pet among the Legends.

"Lingling, the name sounds nice, don't you think?"

While Jin took a bite of the Cakto and said, Lingling, who was on Vahn's shoulder, suddenly showed his fangs.

[So, are you unsatisfied?]

Still, Jin and Lingling often engaged in playful squabbles.

Although they harbored no real animosity towards each other.

"Unsatisfied? I was just thinking that Sister Goddess of Battle has an unexpected side."

[Hmm! Are you saying you didn't like it when Vahn chose that name for me?]

"You misunderstand again. I'm just surprised that Sister Goddess of Battle prefers cute names like that..."

[I don't like you.]

"Haha, is that so? I'm not particularly fond of you either."

[Wanna test me?]

"Alright, you two."

[Nyaa, nya!]

Vahn and Shuri, who were listening, shook their heads.

They had spent a month watching Jin and Lingling fight like this every time they met.

"Sorry, Sister Goddess of Battle."

[Okay, Vahn.]

"And Lingling. Brother Jin is right. Why do you always misinterpret Brother Jin's words?"

[Why does Vahn always take that bastard's side?]

"Because you're the one who's wrong."

[Hmph... If Vahn thinks so, I guess?]

Jin shrugged, and Lingling clung to Vahn's cheek, showing a mischievous look.

"Brother Jin, you haven't been entirely right either. Lingling has just started living in a group, so there are many things she lacks. So even though he makes some mistakes, you should understand him."

Nyah, nyah!

Lingling teased Jin by sticking out his tongue and lowering his lower eyelids, but Jin suppressed a laugh and stayed still.

Every time Lingling did that, he received a light slap from Vahn.

Bang!

[Ow!]

Lingling briefly rubbed his forehead and then leaned back on Vahn's cheek.

'Anyway, he's very fond of Sister Goddess of Battle. To think that guy was such a terrifying Chaos...'

Jin thought it was very nice to see Vahn and Lingling living together.

"So, since it seems you've rested enough, let's start training again."

Vahn and Jin sat face to face.

After deciding to accept Lingling, they had been practicing the "God of Battle Fusion" every day.

Naturally, the fusion was stabilizing at a rapid pace unlike before.

Now, they could control 'Harmony.' The accidents where Jin would lose consciousness or Vahn would be exhausted due to involuntary God of Battle Fusion had completely disappeared.

It was thanks to Lingling willingly becoming a link between them.

Wow!

As both their Light Hearts glowed, Vahn's energy began to flow towards Jin.

Adding Vahn's power to the 10-star energy he had already achieved didn't have a dramatic "visible" effect.

According to Vahn, Jin was still in a state where he couldn't properly control his power.

Though the size of his power had reached 10 stars, Jin couldn't produce as much efficiency because he lacked the control over his power typical of a first-class superhuman.

"We need to know exactly how much power you can handle, Brother Jin. So focus."

"Yes, Sister Goddess of Battle."

Vahn's method was similar to Luna's Mental Eye training in the past.

Just as awakening his Mental Eye, Jin was "recognizing" his own energy with his eyes closed.

It was like swimming in the sea.

It was a task to form the image of the sea of power in his mind and figure out its size.

How far can it go and where is the end?

As always, Jin completed the process faster than Vahn expected.

In the end, when Jin furrowed his brows, Vahn smiled satisfactorily.

"Do you recognize it?"

"Yes. As you said, Sister Goddess of Battle, I can clearly feel that I've reached the end. This is the limit. And beyond this... I can see the sea that seems to be a manifestation of power. In the middle, there is a layer of dark energy."

The dark energy belonged to Lingling.

He served as a conduit connecting Jin and Vahn's powers and also acted as a sort of safety mechanism.

Lingling's will prevented the powers of both individuals from mixing too much.

Without it, Jin and Vahn would have no choice but to run into issues, like when Fusion had manifested before.

"Now that we've come this far, controlling the fusion is no different from being completed."

"...Right now, my vessel isn't enough, so even if I synchronize with you, Sister Goddess of Battle, I can't generate more power than the total amount of my strength."

When Lingling took Jin's strength away, he felt his whole body fill with Vahn's energy.

At that moment, Jin's vessel was empty, but now it wasn't.

There was no room for Vahn's strength to intervene.

However, the God of Battle Fusion remained transcendent for two reasons.

"Now, as long as you're with me, you'll never tire."

In the Fusion state, Vahn's power was added every time Jin's energy ran out.

This means he could always have maximum strength.

If the "mirror" gave Jin divine mana during the Sword Emperor Castle War, Vahn gave him infinite aura and lightning energy.

But there was something else that really surprised him.

"Yes, besides that, the experience, senses, and perspective of Sister Goddess of Battle are being added..."

Jin, who had been speaking up to that point, suddenly shivered.

It was because a shiver ran down his spine.

Right now, Jin was accurately recognizing the maximum level of his strength, and he was recognizing the connection point of Lingling and Vahn's strength beyond it.

Thanks to the progress Jin had made in a month, the Fusion showed a level of synchronization different from before.

The result was the exchange of experiences, senses, and perspective of Vahn.

Everything Vahn had accumulated through his experience as the Goddess of Battle was being filtered into Jin's brain.

Just as Boras shared his experience through the memory transfer forging technique, Valeria's recording magic, and Solderet's recording device.

If those were legacies, what Jin was experiencing now was a literal "Fusion."

In other words, Jin was no different from being Vahn.

'I guess this is what a blind person feels like when they open their eyes...'

Even the view of the training grounds, familiar as home, seemed completely different.

Jin could discern which wall was weak, which floor was firm, how the wind flowed differently; he could recognize everything.

It was a feeling like overseeing the world as a God, not as a human.

Jin was excited by that feeling.

Even the breaths of the other brothers, far from the training ground, were transmitted sharply.

"Does that mean Sister Goddess of Battle usually lives with this sensation?"

Current Jin couldn't maintain that state for long.

Just remaining still overwhelmed him with information and sensations hard to bear.

Dealing with it alone was enough to leave him breathless.

Jin felt as if he had been reborn when he experienced the first God of Battle Fusion.

That was nothing compared to now.

The light tinting both their hearts dimmed.

Before Jin exhausted too much, Vahn canceled the Fusion.

"Hoo."

Jin could only show a bewildered expression, like a person who had just experienced an incredible miracle no one would believe.

Additionally, he had to barely suppress an extreme feeling of disappointment.

It seemed as if the world returned to monochrome as soon as the Fusion lifted.

The ground and wind of the training ground were no longer transmitted accurately and perfectly, and the brothers' breathing couldn't be felt.

The feeling of becoming a God disappeared as if it were a dream.

"You seem quite shaken, Brother Jin."

"Not exactly. A moment ago... it felt like I reached the realm of the Genesis Knight effortlessly."

"It's a mistake to say there was no effort. Firstly, my senses were transmitted to that extent because you have that level of skills."

Just as Jin felt Vahn's feelings, Vahn also keenly felt Jin's sensations.

"...To that extent? Are you saying that wasn't all of it?"

To that, Vahn gently smiled and replied:

"Brother Jin, I am the Goddess of Battle."

[Yes, Vahn the Goddess of Battle! Poor bastard, I think it's an honor!]

[Nyaa, nyaa?]

At Lingling's reaction, Shuri shouted as if she were proud of Jin, but Jin couldn't get out of his astonishment for a while.

He had just realized that the 'Vahn' he had experienced wasn't everything.

'How strong is the Goddess of Battle...?'

At the time of the first training in the past, the day Jin was able to share the Fusion.

Even then, Jin felt Vahn like a huge wall, and it had always been that way since then.

But now, stronger than ever, she seemed more distant than ever.

"You'll be able to enter the same realm as me. If you couldn't, you wouldn't even be able to accept my senses."

Vahn wasn't speaking empty words.

Jin silently nodded his head.

Jin didn't know when it would be, but if she said that, it meant he could definitely reach it.

"The senses may have gone, but the memories will remain, Brother Jin."

"Yes, Sister Goddess of Battle."

Although it seemed like the world had returned to monochrome, Jin vividly remembered the sensations he experienced during the Fusion.

"We'll proceed with training through those sensations. In other words, learn to fight like me. Additionally, try to extend the duration of the Fusion at the same time."

There was no training that could make one grow faster than that. Jin was convinced of it.

[If you want to increase the time, it would be better if you behaved well with me.]

"Sure, Lingling."

[Huh.]

"When Brother Jin's skills reach a certain level, from then on, you'll start training again with the Battle King Brothers. The first opponent is the Brother Twelfth Battle King."

Twelfth Battle King, Teto.

The reason Vahn chose Teto as Jin's first opponent was because he was the weakest of the Battle Kings.

Vahn was looking forward to seeing Jin defeat the Battle Kings one by one in order of battle prowess.

"Alright."
