Unrivaled Demon's Odyssey

Chapter 68 - White Realm

[Ding!] the voice sounded again.

[System Synchro—]

"Delete."

[System Deleted.]

[Ding!]

"Delete."

[System Deleted.]

[Ding!] [Ding!] [Ding!] [Ding!] [Ding!] [Ding!] [Ding!] [Ding!] [Ding!]

It kept repeating again and again.

Nero's face was about to burst in rage. He glanced at one of the empty corners and shot a lightning bolt with his finger.

Everyone's attention turned towards the noise as the crowd gathered around. At the same time, Nero walked past the crowd and checked if the counters were empty or not.

The counters were empty, and there was no one watching Nero. So he jumped over the counter and entered the crystal.

"..." Emilia watched Nero as he went inside the crystal as if there was a portal.

"Guess it wasn't gone," Sophia remarked.

Meanwhile, Nero was walking on the white floor, and his form had changed too. Everything was white; the floor was endless, and the sky was limitless.

"Where are you! Show yourself, so I can kill you!" Nero yelled.

[I have never seen you this angry, Nya~] the voice echoed around Nero.

Nero looked down at his leg to see a cat between his feet. He raised his left leg and stomped it down hard to crush the cat, but the cat had already disappeared.

[Were you trying to crush me just now, Nya~? ] This time, the cat was on Nero's head.

Nero swung his fist over his head to punch the cat, but it jumped and landed in front of Nero.

[Now, now. I know you are happy to see me, Nya~]

"Not at all. I wish I could kill you," Nero asserted.

[You are not strong enough to kill me, Nya~]

Nero raised his hand and snapped. One would hope the cat would be obliterated into pieces, but it was unscathed.

[How many times do I have to tell you that none of your powers will work here, Nya~]

Nero wasn't inside the crystal, he was in the white realm, and the crystal was one of the mediums to enter the white realm.

Nero dashed and grabbed the cat in his hand as he said, "My hands are enough to strangle you to death!"

Nero squeezed the cat's body with his full strength, but his hand passed through the cat's body— as though it was just a projection.

The cat jumped down and spoke, [Calm down, you horny boy, Nya~]

Nero let out a weary sigh and shook his head. "I thought my system was gone for forever, so why did you give it back to me?"

[I thought maybe you would need it now, Nya~]

"I don't need it, so remove it."

All of Nero's anger had vanished, and he was talking normally now.

[Are you sure, there are some new quests and rewards you must check out. Nya~]

Nero waved his hand and stated, "The only useful reward I got from the system was the spell that purified anything I touched."

Nero had cast that spell on himself, and whenever he ejaculated, his elixir also came out purified. That was the reason why Emilia hadn't become pregnant even after all those sessions. However, he never purified his essence whenever he fed it to Emilia in her mouth.

[Zeus, don't be so ignorant. You must never forget that's what made you lose your important companions.]

"..."

[Nya~] the cat added.

"FIne," Nero groaned. "But I don't want anything else other than quests, and I will do it only if they are beneficial for me."

[Sure.]

"Quests," As soon as Nero said that, a screen popped up in front of him.

"It's been ages since I last saw this quest board."

[Look at the top rewards, Nya~]

Nero looked at the rewards and couldn't help up, "Oh!"

The first reward was a skill— Resurrection. And after that was a skill named- Teleport.

Dumbfounded, Nero glanced at the cat and pointed his finger at the screen, "What is this? I don't remember ever having Over Powered skills like this."

[Make sure to read the skill information first; since that's what matters the most. Nya~]

Nero tapped on the skill 'Resurrection', and the information tab popped up.

Nero carefully read what it said. "You can use this skill to revive any dead being within three seconds on their death."

Nero turned to the cat and questioned, "What happens when it has been more than three seconds?"

[You can't use it, Nya~]

Nero clicked his tongue and clenched his fists as he remembered Laira.

"Is there any way to upgrade to this skill? Like completing quests to increase the 'three-second' limit?" Nero asked desperately. "I can do any quest for it."

[There is none. Nya~]

Nero stomped his feet on the ground, and it cracked. "Then it's useless!"

The cat stared at the crack on the ground, then looked at Nero, [Don't be picky. Nya~]

"I am not being picky! This skill is useless! I can revive anyone— using Nure, as long as their soul is alive," Nero proclaimed.

[That only works for non-humans. Don't forget that humans' souls disappear as soon as they die. Nya~]

"You can't revive if more than three seconds have passed."

"You can't revive on the person whom this skill is used before," Read Nero and wondered, 'So I can't use this skill twice on the same person.'

After a brief silence, the cat yawned, [Check the other skill's information too.]

Nero opened the 'Teleport' skill information and read it out aloud.

"You can only use teleport to go to the places you have been before."

"You can't use it to go to the places you have seen but never been there before." This referred to the places where Nero had seen and been before he was sealed.

"You can't use this skill to go to a place that doesn't exist anymore." As the places and the world had changed, the names and the structures of the world had also changed over eons.

"You can't use this skill in an area where there is already a pertained magic barrier."

"You can't use this skill to teleport to the area that already has a pertained magic barrier."

"Ugh," Nero rolled his eyes, "There are so many limitations. Talk about nerfs before buffs."

[How about it? Are you interested now? Don't forget to check the quest you need to complete to get the skill. Nya~]

Nero opened the quest as he scoffed, "I bet it would be some lame-ass quest—"

"…" Nero turned to the cat with a baffled look on his face.

[What's wrong, Nya~?]

"The quest for the 'resurrection' skill is— 'Kill a God'."
