Chapter 237: 237 Bonus Chapter From Prey to Hunter

The statement from the blue bird shocked Arthur. It was bold, ambitious, and not anyone would have the courage to say something like that.

Arthur had never seen the power of the Monlog Giant in person, but he had visions about Placidusax, and the power of the lord of dragons was extraordinary.

Still, the bluebird was confident he was stronger than both legendary creatures.

“How are you so certain about that?” Arthur said.

“The two of them tried to challenge me before, and did not last a second. The universe is bigger than you think.”

“Do you see the sun? My brother is the one carrying it, and I carried the moon, but someone helped me escape such duty, and I ended up sealed inside this place.”

A bird capable of carrying the sun was his brother? That was so incredible it sounded like a lie, but Arthur was in a world with so many strange things that perhaps that was possible.

“I can help you not to only escape this place with your life, but increase your power, giving you the complete essence of the lightning.”

“What’s the catch? I am sure you want something in exchange.”

“Yes, I do. When you get my lightning essence, I will be inside of your body, hidden, recovering my strength. The only way for me to escape this place is by being hidden inside of your body, and you will have to help me recover, and also help my brother.”

“All that just for a lightning essence and a way to escape this place? It seems like little.”

“Little? Okay. When you get the inheritance after killing the dragon, I will contend against it and lock it inside your mind, so that you can only access when you are at the rank 3 official mage level.”

“What? Why would you do that?”

“Kiddo, I had the power to destroy your universe, yet someone had the power to trap me here. Do you really think the Blood Monarch is someone you can mess with?”

“Blood Monarch? Is that the name of the person which this inheritance belongs?”

“Yes. I tried to gather more information about him, but found little. My best bet is that he is from our neighbor’s universe where the Gods come from.”

“Can you enlighten me?”

The blue bird was talking about a lot of things. Things that Arthur did not know, yet did not know if it was true or not.

“This planet we are on is just one of the entire universe. There are mages everywhere, and the planets are rated. Take this planet, for example. It is only a Grade 2 planet because the top power is a rank 4 mage. The amount of mana the planet has also changes its grade, increasing it if its abundant,”

“But if a planet has a good amount of mana, more people will reach higher levels, thus increasing the grade of a planet.”

“I see, but the grade of a planet has any influence on the grand scheme of things?”

“Yes. I believe there is a sort of alliance that commands all the planets, and the higher the grade of your planet, the more benefits it gets. I am not sure about it though,”

“The important thing is that the Blood Monarch is from the universe that is closest to us. Humans had tried to conquer that universe for a long, long time, but failed every time. Their power is beyond our comprehension.”

“Anyone that tries to get the inheritance from that man, they will die. I can help you keep your life so that you can slowly get access to it. Perhaps you will learn more about that universe, and help us conquer it in the future.”

Arthur was not willing to accept the trade at first, but after hearing all of that, his opinion changed.

He did not want to die after getting the inheritance, and the person who left that inheritance behind was not simple, and was arguably one of the strongest mages alive.

So, leaving the inheritance behind would not be a smart idea.

“Okay, let’s do it.”

Signy and Helga, who were beside, did not know what they were talking about. It was all done using mental transmissions.

“I am Ikarus. You?”

“Arthur.”

“These two ladies should wait outside of the cave to not get harmed.” Ikarus said.

Arthur nodded and asked Helga and Signy to wait outside. They did not complain and did as he told. The island was a safe place, so there was no chance the skeleton dragon would attack them there.

Ikarus asked Arthur to sit down and explained the process to him.

“I will turn my body into a small crystal which will go inside of you, beside your mana core. This process will be harmless, but absorbing the lightning essence can hurt a little, so be ready.”

In an instant, the immense blue bird turned into a small crystal which had lightning around, attacking anything that got close to it.

Then, it flew toward Arthur, passing through his body like a ghost, stopping right beside Arthur’s mana core.

It did not hurt at first, but Arthur’s body absorbed the lightning essence without his command, and the pain got worse and worse to where Arthur wished he was dead!

He had absorbed other essences before, and those did not hurt. Why was the lightning one like that?

Well, it was not only one essence, but two! Ikarus not only gave him the lightning essence, but the moon essence as well.

Arthur was not absorbing the moon essence, though. It was something beyond his capability, but just the fact it was there inside his body, dormant, made the absorption process a living hell.

Screams of pain echoed from inside the cave. Signy wanted to go inside to look and see if Arthur needed any help, but remembered he asked them to not go no matter what happened.

It was hard to listen to those screams, but Signy and Helga kept themselves strong and did not go inside the cave without a calling.

After one hour of suffering, Arthur left the cave. He was not the same person who walked in, no. The difference was so immense that even Signy and Helga noticed it.

“All my attributes are insane! My Spiritual Force even went up to 170! I believe I need 200 of it to get the next rank.”

The power he now had, and it was time for that skeleton dragon to flee. Tides had changed, and the prey became the hunter!
