Undying Warlord

Chapter 410 Final Trial Completed

There were a few things Dilan wanted to know about the Werewolf King, the Witch Queen, and the Vampire King, and both the Blood Demon and the summoned Demon were basically his best sources of information in that regard.

He stopped using mana to control Kelkas because it was simply not necessary after the summoned Demon had seen what Dilan was capable of.

As for Zirach, he was not healing properly and the only thing he was capable of doing was destroying his pain sensors. This was his only way of ensuring that he wouldn't feel any pain for the next few minutes until Dilan would end his life.

"So basically, more human or human-like races like the humans on Milarn have been in existence, and it has been a very long time since the Primordial Ascension occurred in your realm.

After your realm was fully awakened, the Interface system maintained itself for a millennia before it disappeared, and the Essence of Demonic Power, or whatever the human adventurer group stole was one of the remnants that belonged to the Era when the Primordial Ascension happened in your realm?" Dilan summarized it quite easily.

The situation was much less worrisome than he had expected. However, there was still the question about why the system would create an Instance Dungeon like the Blood Monarch's Sanctum for an existence that the Blood Demon and even Kelkas labeled as extremely weak.

"You don't understand the system yet. It takes the belief of a race into consideration and creates special places through the power of their faith," Kelkas explained, while his eyes kept darting towards Dilan every now and then.

He didn't plan on revealing a lot of secrets but he didn't plan to be crippled either. It was much better to talk a bit than to live in pain for the rest of his life in the worst-case scenario.

"So you mean that the Vampires' belief that the Blood Monarch is the second strongest and the most unique of all Vampires is the reason that an Instance Dungeon had been created for it? Doesn't that mean there should be many Instance Dungeons about all well-known figures of mankind's history, and people everyone knows about?" Dilan tried to conclude what was going on but he found it to be extremely weird.

The Pagoda of Time, the Sun Temple, the Temple of Scorpio, the Blood Monarch's Sanctum…what else would come next? Places related to the Zodiac signs had already appeared, meaning the Pagoda of Time that seemed to be related to Taurus, and the Temple of Scorpio, which was likely to be related to another Zodiac sign denoted a pattern if he didn't misunderstand something essential.

"The system will create numerous Instance Dungeons and Gates to accelerate the awakening of the planet. The Instance Dungeons will be considered as an opportunity for the native race to learn, adapt to the changes the Primordial Ascension brings forth, and make enough gains to cope with the invasion of mana, monsters, and other races.

Gates will bring forth mana whether it is in the gaseous state or through monsters that release mana innately, and other races will awaken the system emerging on Milarn. The races will attempt to make use of the system in order to become a stronger race, adapt and overcome the struggle of their low innate talent!" Kelkas continued to speak and the more the summoned Demon said, the better Dilan's understanding of the situation became.

The Rasnian and Ligav race were subjects of the Sun temple but they were also races that were innately not much stronger than humans.

Dilan had tested this theory of his ample times and then reached the conclusion. Werewolves and Vampires were innately stronger than the Rasnian and Ligrav races.

With that in mind, it was pretty easy for Dilan to understand everything the summoned Demon said.

'They're really good sources of information. Why didn't I think about summoning a Tier-3 Demon before??' Dilan wondered as he grinned from ear to ear.

The more information he received, the easier it would be for him to understand what he would have to do in the future. The Interface System was not permanent, but as long as it existed it would be fair to all races. There would hardly be any benefits the system would provide to already powerful races that they couldn't manage to do on their own.

As for the awakening of the innate talent that was hidden within weaker races, the system would never allow augmenting the strength of a race in its entirety.

The only advantage they gave weak races was the awakening of special powers that were compatible with certain beings. Origin abilities were something like this, a special treat the system awarded to a certain number of beings on Milarn during the start of the Primordial Ascension and only if they were highly compatible with it.

Dilan figured out many interesting things while talking to Kelkas but it was not long after he started that he felt it was time to end the chat.

"You can go now. I might use the Blood Eclipse Necklace in the future once again, so tell your buddies that they should treat me with respect, otherwise, I will cripple them!" He declared while manifesting the Gate to the Netherworld realm once again.

He allowed Kelkas to leave before he turned to Zirach.

Dilan's mind was occupied with all the information that flashed through his mind and digesting all of the pieces would take a while. Forming new plans with the given information wouldn't be easy either, which was why Dilan felt like killing Zirach now rather than later.

"I doubt that you will actually die here, but you were able to feel the pain I could inflict to you easily. It has only been a bit more than 60 days since the Primordial Ascension began and I was perfectly normal…well maybe not perfectly normal…but I was a somewhat ordinary human before.

That being said, I will be much stronger if we ever meet again, so think carefully of how you would treat me in the future!" Dilan said as he activated [Mantle of Elements] to summon the Basic Lightning Spirit.

Afterward, he activated [Mana Slash] and by using 50 Units of altered Lightning mana, Xealtron was coated in lightning currents, and compressed lightning-attributed mana circulated within the blade as he rammed it into the huge eyeballs of the Blood Demon.

A beam of compressed lightning mana shot through the eye of the Blood Demon, piercing through the soft tissues of the eye, fractions of the skull, and Zirach's brain.

The Blood Demon died not long after and a notification popped up in front of him when the Blood Demon dissolved into countless black particles.

[Congratulations to the host! You have defeated a <SS> threat! The final trial has been concluded!]

[The host overwhelmed the <SS> difficulty Blood Demon with his tremendous power! Evaluation re-calculated. Final score <SSS+>]

[The host has reached the required threshold to advance to the Hidden trial 'Awakening'!]

[Does the host want to advance to the Hidden trial? Only one existence will be able to undergo a true awakening of the Blood Monarch's Power!]

At first, Dilan was excited because the first two messages indicated that he would receive many dungeon points to purchase something in the Taurus shop and other shops and that he would gain something even better.

However, the third message dampened his mood considerably.

The notification clearly said that he could awaken the Blood Monarch's Power. Under normal circumstances, most people would be happy to see this message.

Only Dilan was a bit disappointed because he clearly recalled the words of both the Blood Demon and the summoned Demon, who had repetitively said that the Blood Monarch was an extremely weak half-blood Blood Demon.

He was not sure if that power would actually allow him to become stronger or if it might deteriorate the strength which he had attained until now.

"Well…I might test it out and suppress the awakening power if it's not useful?"
