Chapter 206: End of the Trial

In a place far away from the Area 52 inheritance, both Inhee and the Supreme Ruler of the Void looked at the Inanimate in the orb with incredibly appalled expressions on their faces. Never did they expect that the maximum level of power for an Inanimate was far higher than the power normally shown by Inanimate!

"There's a large gap of power between a Rank 3 Animate and a Pseudo-Transcendent level being!" Inhee could not help but shout after sensing the aura radiating from the Inanimate. "To think that the Inanimate's body had limited its true power to a great extent."

"So…are you still thinking of removing the Ruler of the Void from that Inanimate?" After saying those words, Inhee looked at the Supreme Ruler of the Void, who was engrossed from what the Inanimate was showing, with a smile.

Although he could not take his eyes off from the full power of the Inanimate, he still responded to Inhee's words, saying, "I told you before. I've already accepted the Inanimate as someone who truly deserves the title of Ruler of the Void."

After that, he then added, "But you know, for an Inanimate to have such a ton of power hidden like that, I can't help but feel that the Inanimate's current title is too low for the power it has."

Fortunately, Inhee had an inquisitive mind, easily reading between the lines of the Supreme Ruler of the Void's statement, letting out a small gasp of disbelief as she asked him, "Are you telling me…you're going to do that?"

"Well, to be honest, this Inanimate is the first one to show a level of power beyond the Animate level out of all of the Ruler of the Void I've anointed," the Supreme Ruler of the Void replied to Inhee's words in a roundabout way. "Don't you think the Inanimate deserves to have a reward that is equivalent to its power?"

"I don't see anything wrong with that," Inhee replied to the Supreme Ruler of the Void's question not long after. After that, the Supreme Ruler of the Void surprisingly took his eyes off of the orb, turning his head around to look at Inhee, with Inhee asking him soon after, "What? Is there something wrong with my face?"

"I feel like the reward I'm going to bestow the Inanimate is far from enough for its power," the Supreme Ruler of the Void replied to Inhee's question with a smile. "Would it be possible for you to give partial ownership of this Area 52 Inheritance to this Inanimate?"

"What?!" In an instant, Inhee's expression abruptly changed to that of shock before replying, "You do know very well that these inheritances are the only way I could increase my power, right? By giving partial ownership of the Area 52 inheritance to this being, my power will definitely decrease by around 5 percent!"

"Eh? What's that?" The Supreme Ruler of the Void went ahead and leaned his body towards Inhee as he cupped his right hand towards his right ear before saying, "You're saying you won't give the Inanimate partial ownership? Okay, then. Guess I won't double the amount of energy I gave you a while ago."

Letting out an intentionally long sigh, the Supreme Ruler of the Void went back to his normal posture as he said, "I guess I'll just have to find another way to give this Inanimate a better rewar—"

"Agh! Your acting is incredibly infuriating." Inhee interrupted the Supreme Ruler of the Void from continuing his words, saying, "Fine, fine. I'll give that Inanimate partial ownership of the Area 52 Inheritance. In exchange for an additional inheritance being made after Area 68, I guess I'll give in to your wishes."

Hearing that Inhee had finally agreed to give the Inanimate partial ownership, the Supreme Ruler of the Void grinned as he said, "I'm glad you're a good friend of mine."

"Better keep up your part of the deal, okay?" Inhee replied to the Supreme Ruler of the Void's statement, to which the Supreme Ruler of the Void replied, "Of course. Why wouldn't I keep up my part of the deal for a being with a bright future?"

…

Ding! Ding! Ding!

'Due to the manipulation of the Supreme Ruler of the Void, your title [Assistant Ruler of the Void] has been upgraded to [Junior Ruler of the Void].'

'Due to the Supreme Ruler of the Void feeling great amazement from your show of power, the passive Species skill [Blessing of the Void's Ruler] has been obtained.'

'Due to the coercion of the Supreme Ruler of the Void, the Inheritance Ruler has bestowed upon you partial ownership of the Area 52 Inheritance, giving you the title [Area 52 Inheritance: Partial Owner].'

Reading through the notifications he had received, Aurus could not help but look at the Supreme Ruler of the Void in front of him with shock as he said, "Are you kidding me? These rewards are too much for an Inanimate like me!"

"To be honest, I don't think it's enough for the power you showed, Inanimate," the Supreme Ruler of the Void replied to Aurus's words with a light chuckle. "You know, you��re the first being that has accepted the Ruler of the Void title and showed a level of power far greater than the peak of the Animate level."

"Eh?" Hearing the Supreme Ruler of the Void's words, Aurus could not help but radiate an aura of slight surprise. Thinking that he had heard wrong, Aurus asked the Supreme Ruler of the Void, "Could you repeat that one more time?"

"The fact that you're the first being to show a level of power far greater than the Animate level after accepting the Ruler of the Void title?" the Supreme Ruler of the Void replied to Aurus's question with a question of his own, leaving Aurus at a loss for words.

Eventually, Aurus asked him, "Is that the reason why you've given me these rewards?"

"Yeah." The Supreme Ruler of the Void nodded his head in response. He then said, "I have a feeling that these skills I've given you right now will help you along in your journey in the future."

The Supreme Ruler of the Void then stood up and dusted off his backside after saying that. He then went ahead and snapped his fingers, dispelling the dome that surrounded the two of them as the area of the stone room they were in had reverted to its previous state. 

Letting out a sigh of contentment, the Supreme Ruler of the Void looked at Aurus one more time before saying, "And with that, our meeting ends here. I hope you become someone prominent in the future."

In response to the Supreme Ruler of the Void's words, Aurus let out a light chuckle before saying, "I hope so as well."

With a smile on his face, the Supreme Ruler of the Void's body gradually transformed into dark particles that dissipated into thin air, leaving Aurus alone in the stone room once more after about half a minute or so.

"So…how does giving it your all against the Supreme Ruler of the Void feel like?" Just as Aurus thought that he was alone once more, a familiar voice to Aurus resounded throughout the room, prompting Aurus to reply to the voice.

"It feels kind of relaxing, to be honest."

"Definitely," the voice agreed with Aurus's opinion. "Giving it your all when it comes to fighting always gives you a relaxing feeling."

"Anyways, according to the Supreme Ruler of the Void, I've obtained partial ownership of this inheritance." After the voice was finished voicing out its opinion, Aurus went ahead and asked the voice, "What kind of perks does someone with partial ownership have, Inhee?"

"Well, there's not much a difference in terms of perks for someone with partial ownership from someone with full ownership," the voice, who was Inhee all this time, replied to his question. It then continued, "You can enter and leave the inheritance as you please, as well as enter any room inside this inheritance as you please."

Hearing Inhee's words, Aurus could not help but get a bit excited, pondering as to whether there was a room filled with skills inside this inheritance, just like how the Tempest Cliff inheritance had over a thousand skills for him to learn. Unfortunately for Aurus, as if Inhee was reading his mind, which it was, Inhee let out a chuckle as it said, "The only difference between those two types is the fact that by having partial ownership, the one that owns more of the inheritance can decide whether to allow the one with the lower ownership to enter a certain part of the inheritance."

"Your intent of heading towards the inheritance's skill room is quite obvious, Aurus," Inhee added before continuing, "For someone who can already reach a Pseudo-Transcendent level of power, what would you need more skills for?"

Seeing that he was figured out by Inhee, Aurus let out an awkward chuckle as he replied, "Well…true. Alright then, I shall be taking my leave."

Whoosh!

And with that, using the newfound power he had to control the inheritance, Aurus had left the inheritance, dissipating into thin air as Inhee was left looking at an empty stone room.

"You could've just asked me nicely, you know," Inhee muttered as it let out a boisterous chuckle.

…

In a place far away from the Area 52 inheritance, Inhee had just removed the strands of energy connected her hands towards the orb, stretching her body not long after. After the Supreme Ruler of the Void was finished with the third stage, the Supreme Ruler of the Void stood up from the chair and let Inhee sit on it, allowing Inhee to formally end the impromptu trial Aurus had participated in, with Aurus using his partial ownership power to leave the inheritance.

With Inhee now only having a view of an empty stone room, she did not have anything else to do, prompting her to stand up from her chair as she turned to look at the Supreme Ruler of the Void, who was near the entrance of Inhee's place. While looking at the Supreme Ruler of the Void's back, Inhee was pondering whether she should get closer to him, eventually deciding that it wouldn't hurt to do so.

Step. Step. Step.

Hearing the sounds of footsteps gradually getting louder behind him, the Supreme Ruler of the Void turned around, a smile plastered on his face as he said, "Has the Inanimate left the inheritance, Inhee?"

"Yeah." Inhee nodded as a response to his question. She then went ahead and asked him, "With that out of the way, what are you going to do next?"

"I might go back to my place and try to break through to the Veridical Saint level," the Supreme Ruler of the Void did not hide anything from Inhee as he replied to her question. He then added, "Or I could go ahead and enhance the control and scope of the Principle I currently have, ascending it to a Greater Principle."

After listening to the Supreme Ruler of the Void's reply, Inhee could not help but think that he might be motivated to strive further after seeing that a Ruler he had accepted had shown a level of power far greater than its existence level. Since she was not sure whether this was the case, Inhee let out a light chuckle as she asked him, "Is it because of that Inanimate?"

"Pretty much," the Supreme Ruler of the Void replied with a light smile on his face. In response to this, Inhee went closer to the Supreme Ruler of the Void and said, "You know what? Before you go do that, let's go grab a bite."

"I told you that we were going to grab a bite right?" she added, to which the Supreme Ruler of the Void responded, "Yeah. Where are we going to go eat?"

"Since I'm feeling generous, how about we eat at the Pagoda of Delicacies?" Inhee asked the Supreme Ruler of the Void, to which the latter replied with slight shock, "Eh? There? You do know how expensive appetizers cost there, right?"

"Who says I'm using my own money to pay for that?" Inhee replied to the Supreme Ruler of the Void's words with a chuckle before adding, "I'm gonna use the payment you gave me to treat ourselves. In other words, you're paying for my meal."

Listening to Inhee's explanation, the Supreme Ruler of the Void could not help but let out a chortle, eventually saying, "Ah, that's so like you, Inhee. Fine, fine. Think of it as me treating you. Let's go to the Pagoda of Delicacies."

Whoosh!

Not long after that, the Supreme Ruler of the Void went ahead and flew upwards, to which Inhee followed suit not long after. With the two of them side by side, they then flew towards the Pagoda of Delicacies at maximum speed.

"Inhee?"

"Yeah?"

"After we go grab a bite, do you want to…"

"I've told you before, and I'll tell you again. No means no, One Shot."

"Stop calling me One Shot. It hurts my pride."

"But it's the truth, One Shot. Hehe."

"Ahh…shut up."
