《Kings Rite》 Chapter 1- Eian *huff huff huff* [Congratulations you have defeated ¡°End¡± You now stand at the pinnacle of King¡¯s Rite] The Angel said, but even though she was congratulating him, there was no excitement in her voice, there was never any real emotion in her voice, her voice always maintained a matter of fact tone, as if she was not really congratulating but just stating a natural fact. *huff huff huff* He did not respond to the Angel, he simply sat with his back against the alter, his head hung low as he gasped for breath. The battle had drained him of all his strength, it robbed him of his left arm and eye, his weapons and armor were completely destroyed, to say he was badly injured would be a great understatement as in just breathing caused intense waves of pain to rush through his body. [Defeating ¡°End¡± is no small accomplishment therefore the Gods have chosen to award you with 10,000,000 points of Rite, as well the title of ¡°End Bringer¡±] Seeming to ignore his current state the Angel carried on with her announcements of his rewards and achievement¡¯s. [Along with the points and title you shall also receive the additional reward of the ¡°Infinite Nirvana¡± sword¡­ Congratulations you are the first owner of a ¡°superior Grade Ex Divine weapon¡± you shall be awarded an additional 2,000,000 points of Rite¡­ Congratulations you are the first to reach 50,000,000 points of Rite, there for you shall be granted the title ¡°Points Megalomania¡±... Congratulations¡­] ¡°ENOUGH!¡± Finally, feeling annoyed by the Angels constant nagging, he screamed at the Angel causing her to stop in the middle of her announcements and silent watch him. ¡°Just tell me in total how many points do I currently have now¡± [You currently have a total of 100,000,000 points of Rite] ¡°How much would I have if I were to trade in all my titles and ¡°Infinite Nirvana¡±?¡± Hearing his question the Angel hesitated a bit before finally slowly saying. [Trading in your titles and weapon is not a recommended course of action¡­your weapons and armor were after all destroyed during your battle] ¡°I DIDN¡¯T ASK YOU FOR ANY OF YOUR FUCKING ADVICE JUST ANSWER MY DAMNED QUESTION!¡± He finally lifts his head looking at her with his only remaining eye. Cold, deep and blue as the vast ocean. His face was contorted with a mixture of annoyance and pain, but it could still not hide his handsome appearance. He glared at the Angel whom was hovering in front of him and she without showing any change in her expression, returned his gaze. She was remarkably beautiful like a flawless sculpture, however, even though she was beautiful the two had been together for almost 25 years now, he had long since grown accustomed to her beautiful indifferent face, it no longer had an effect on him, in fact if anything, her beautiful indifferent face only served to further annoy him these days. He his feelings towards her constantly drifted closer towards hate. [Every advice I have ever given you, is with your best interest in mind] After a few moments of staring at each other the Angel finally opened her mouth saying. ¡°HAHAHA! MY BEST INTEREST!?!? WAS IT MY BEST INTEREST TO BE TRUSTED INTO THIS WORLD, WAS IT MY BEST INTEREST TO SPEND THE PAST 25 YEARS FIGHTING EVERY SINGLE DAY FOR MY VERY SURVIVAL, WHEN HAVE YOU AND YOUR FUCKED UP GODS EVER DONE ANYTHING IN MY BEST INTEREST!?!?¡± [I understand that given your current physical injuries and mental stress you wish to vent, I would advise¡­] *CLANG!* Before she could finish talking He grabbed the broken half of his sword and threw it at her, however, because she was an invulnerable spirit it simply flew through her and struck against the wall behind her. ¡°I don¡¯t need your advice I need your answer, how many points?¡± He growled towards her in a low voice as the Angel froze and once again silently held his gaze. She hesitated, in truth even though she had always maintained her indifference, she knew better than anyone else of how much he sacrificed throughout the many years, she saw him shed his blood and tears countless times, saw him being driven to the brink of taking his own life over and over again. She had always managed to bring him back from the edge of insanity every time and every time she would see his change. His gaze at once used to be that of amazement and worship, it then changed to lust and infatuation, it then slowly changed to that of love, but she also noticed how it slowly changed from love to hate. After all, she was the living embodiment of those who thrust him into this living hell, she was well aware of that and even though whenever he looked at her with a gaze of hate it caused her to feel uncomfortable on the inside, she maintained her indifferent appearance, she did not know when he would die and becoming attached was an extreme taboo. [You would have 145,000,000 points of Rite] She finally decided to relent and answer his question. She did not know why but today she felt more troubled by the way he was looking at her than what she normally would. *sigh* He quietly sighed to himself as he sat; his eyes became somewhat vacant as he was lost in his own thoughts. ¡°Trade in everything for the points as well as any other title I would gain from the increase of points¡±If you spot this tale on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation. After a few moments his vacant look disappeared and a look of determination appeared before he met the eyes of the Angel and gave out his order. [I would advise against¡­] ¡°Elize¡­don¡¯t argue back with me on this and just do it¡± Before she could full object he interrupted her, however, unlike before where his whole demeanor was full of rage and hate, he was now filled with wryness. Yes he was tired, extremely tired, all he wanted to do was rest his tired mind, lay down and forever close his eyes, sleep through this hellish world and its nightmares, but there was still more to do, still so much more to do before he could finally rest. Hearing him call out her name and seeing the once unyielding figure turn into someone so frail and weak, the Angel known as Elize, Slightly trembled before biting her lower lip. [I understand¡­] She quietly said trying to keep her indifference, but slightly failing as her voice trembled. *wheeze wheeze* The two remained silent, but his loud breathing soon turned from gasping for air to wheezing, she knew his vitality was slowly draining from him, but he did not take any potions or cast any of his healing spells, she could not understand what he was thinking and seeing his present condition worsen it worried her more. [If you do not take any medical measures your life will be in danger] She couldn¡¯t help but say after a bit, however, he did not reply to her or take any action and just continued to sit there wheezing, which caused her to worry more. ¡°Just tell me the points¡­¡± He finally replied weakly after a few more moments. [Your points are now 153,091,120] ¡°Good¡­ I want to make two wishes¡± [Wish¡­are you sure this is what you want?] ¡°Yes it is¡± [Each wish costs 50,000,000 points and there are limits as to what can be granted, however¡­ Eian even if you wish for her return it would not change anything¡­] ¡°ENOUGH! I never want to hear you mention her again¡± His voice was low and with each word a fresh wave of pain surged through him but his face showed no sign of pain, however, the previous cold viciousness that had disappeared surfaced again, this time he did not bother to hide the hate in his eyes. Seeing his unbridled hatred towards her indifferent face finally cracked as the pain in her heart grew from a small pinch to a twisting knife. [very well¡­what is your first wish¡­?] Fighting back her raging emotions she finally asked him with a weak voice what his first wish was. ¡°I want to go back¡­back to the first day I was summoned!¡± [What?] Hearing his wish Elize was stunned for a moment forgetting her twisting emotions. She knew how much he hated the current world he was in, how much he had gone through so to hear him say he wanted to restart all these years of suffering, she was truly shocked and confused as to why he would make such a choice. [Eian¡­ I] ¡°I don¡¯t want to hear anything Elize, the first wish is to go back to the start¡­as for the second wish¡­ I want to go back with the remainder of my ¡°points of Rite¡±, it¡¯s possible for you to do that right?¡± [It is, however¡­ Eian what is it you intend to do?¡± The more she listened the more confused she became. It was obvious that he intended to start from the beginning again and with 53,091,120 points it would be an understatement to say that he would have a massive advantage over the other participants, however, she could not understand what his real purpose was. ¡°You do not need to know just grant the wishes¡± Hearing the sternness in his voice she knew it would be impossible to get any answers out of him and given his current situation she chose to no longer pursue the matter. [I will need to gain permission before I can grant a wish] Hearing her reply Eian did not say anything, he watched as she closed her eyes and tilted her head upwards, he knew that she was communicating with the gods of the world to ask their permission, he did not say anything and only lowered his head closing his eyes, it was getting harder to stay awake. It did not take long before she opened her eyes and gazed at him hesitating a little before she said. [They have granted permission to your wishes] ¡°um¡± He did not say anything and only choose to grunt in response. A veil of light descended on him after his responses, there was nothing exceedingly special about it, his whole body was just covered in light, it was neither warm nor cold. ¡°What do I have to do to obtain my points?¡± [When we meet, you simply need to ask for the retrieval of your blessing and the points shall be given to you] *sigh* Eian deeply sighed as he rested his head against the alter and closed his eyes again. ¡°So much more to do¡± He mumbled to himself. [Eian¡­] ¡°What is it?¡± [do you¡­do you truly hate me that much?] She could no longer bare it, biting her lower lip and gathering her courage she asked him with a trembling voice. Hearing her trembling voice and seeing her indifference finally break Eian was shocked and taken back and even though he had long since lost any romantic notions towards her, his heart skipped a few beats, how long was it that he had wanted to see such a reaction, how long did he wait for her to show so many emotions towards him. At one point he would have given anything for her to act the way she currently was, but that was all in the past, time had a way of washing away all foolish notions and the notion of love had long since faded from him. His hard quickly hardened again as he slowly opened his mouth. ¡°Yes¡­¡± There was no anger or hate in his voice, no hurt or compassion, it was a simple answer spoken with a matter of fact tone, a tone that fiercely pierced its way into her. Her entire body began to shake as she made a feeble attempt to stop her quickly moistening eyes from over flowing. She had known the answer for a long time now, but knowing it and hearing it were two different things. Deep inside she wailed around and screamed, deep inside her she wanted to throw herself at him and beg for his forgiveness, but she could only keep those things inside and not act on them. His body finally started to fade within the veil of light, their eyes locked onto each other, even though he knew that he would see her again, it still somehow felt strange. It was true that there was hatred in his heart for her, but nonetheless she was still someone he had spent 25 years with, his emotions at the very last moment became complex and he did not know why. Her eyes were quickly flooded with tears; she was losing something she could never regain, even though they would meet again in the past, the past and the present were different, she could only hope that somehow her past self could learn from the mistakes of her current, perhaps then their paths would not become so estranged. Watching him slowly fade into the light Elize¡¯s eyes flashed with determination and she quickly flew towards him. Seeing her rapidly approach him, Eian simply sat watching her. As she reached him, she clasped his face with both her hands before bringing her face towards his. A light red tint quickly covered her face as she closed her eyes and brought their lips together. It only lasts a few seconds, but those few seconds were all that she needed before she quickly pulled back from him, leaving him wide eyed and shocked. How could he not know what that seemingly innocent kiss meant. He stared at her as the surrounding glow steadily faded. ¡°Why¡­?¡± After struggling with his emotions for a bit he asked her. [Because¡­ I love you] Was all that she said to him, but before he could say anything in response his body completely faded into the white veil. All that was left was the angel whose glow slowly disappeared as she fell to the ground, a light smile on her beautiful face and tears running down her face before the light in her eyes dimmed and her world faded into darkness. Chapter 2- Welcome ¡°DAMMIT! WHY¡­WHY COULDN¡¯T YOU LET ME CONTINUE HATING YOU¡­WHY DID YOU DO SOMETHING SO STUPID¡­DAMMIT IT ELIZE WHY EVEN IN THE END MUST YOU TOY AROUND WITH ME?!?!¡± Even though he was sent back as he had wished for, his memories had all remained with him. He clearly remembered everything that had happened in the 25 years he had spent in ¡°Kings Rite¡±, especially his final moments with Elize. He subconsciously reached out and traced his lips which still held the lingering warmth of her kiss. *BANG!* ¡°Dammit Elize why?¡± He swore in a low voice as he struck the wall of the building beside him. Her final kiss¡­it was more than an innocent kiss, she had given him her blessing, her heart, her very soul, something any higher order creature could do to a lower order creature, but the gods had made it a skin for an angel to give their blessing to a human. They would not stop the angel from doing so, but the blessings were in direct correlation with the angel¡¯s soul. By giving away her blessing, she gave away her soul and nothing not even a higher order creature can survive without their soul. ¡°Why¡­why would you sacrifice everything in the end¡­now what am I supposed to do with all this hate You took it all from me only to give me everything¡­just what the hell did you want from me?¡± Eian mumbled to himself with vacant eyes as he hung his head against the wall trying to sort out his chaotic emotions. ¡°Ummm excuse me sir¡­are you alright?¡± A nervous voice suddenly called out bring Eian out of his stupor. Finally, he remembered his surroundings, it was the day of the summons, right now he was a 19-year-old university freshmen walking down the crowded downtown streets of B city. As he turned around he saw the person talking to him, it was a young man, tall and handsome. He wore the uniform of a solider, he stood straight and the very way he carried himself even without the uniform one can tell that he was solider. Eian had seen many that were part of one army or another in ¡°Kings Rite¡± majority of them all carried the same air around them and it was no different for this young man in front of him. Behind the young solider there was a shy teenage girl hiding herself like a scared cat, she was pretty and seeing her hide herself behind the solider made for an adorable sight for most people, however, Eian was not most people and seeing her he automatically felt a sense of familiarity towards her. He knew that it was more than likely that since she was in this area, she would most likely be summoned to ¡°Kings Rite¡± where he knew her from, but looking into her lavender eyes he could not quite remember who exactly she was. Seeing Eian turn his vision towards her she shrieked further trying her best to hide behind the young solider. Noticing Eian looking at the young teenage girl the solider furrowed his brows as he frowned towards Eian and placed his hand on the girl¡¯s arm pushing her further behind him taking a clear defensive stand. ¡°Brother and sister?¡± Eian thought to himself. Noticing that the two carried similar facial traits as well as the same platinum blonde hair and lavender colored eyes he realized it was more than likely they were brother and sister. ¡°I¡¯m fine¡­¡± Finally, Eian opened his mouth and spoke to the young solider before walking past him and casting one final glance towards the young teenage girl. As Eian walked past the two he noticed there were a lot more people gathered than the siblings, they all moved aside and gave Eian a large breath of space to walk by them, but as he did he could hear their varying whispers, wondering if he had some mental issue, a drug addict or a drunk. Eian was not bothered by their comments, of course they would think something along those lines if a person suddenly just randomly started screaming in the middle of the city for no apparent reason, he could not blame him nor did he have enough energy to waste on such things, instead he offered them a silent prayer of good luck as he kept walking further down the street eventually disappearing into the sea of bodies. Waves of memories silently assaulted him as he walked through the streets, he grew up in an orphanage, a miserable place that he had once wished he could burn to the ground. He struggled and worked hard to get away from that hellish place and eventually he got his chance when he was accepted into his university. He had just started his classes not two months ago and everything was going smoothly. As he had some talent in business, his economy classes were not too difficult for him and eventually he grew somewhat bored with his classes, but nonetheless he diligently showed up for every class that he had and as soon as his classes ended he would go to his part-time job at a shipping company. After his shift ended he would return home, finish off whatever school work or project he had and go to sleep. It was a boring life but a life that he had grown to miss over the years, in fact now that he had returned he could not even remember what it was he had found so boring about it, was this life not better than having to fight daily for his very survival. *sigh* He could only sigh to himself as he walked forward.Reading on this site? This novel is published elsewhere. Support the author by seeking out the original. Eventually he came across an empty park, it was surrounded by well-maintained greenery, there were varying colors of flower beds lying all around the park creating a unique pattern. It was a delicate and serene sight; a calm gentle breeze blew by sending the flowery scents flying around. A beautiful scene in the midst of a chaotic and busy city. Eian couldn¡¯t help but lose himself in the scene before him. Before he would never pay attention to something like this, but now seeing it before him he couldn¡¯t help but think, just how many things did he miss in his previous life that he will never get again? Loosing himself in his thoughts he walked towards a park bench and sat down still looking at the surrounding flowers. It was the first time in a very long time that he could sit down and release his guard. No fear of something trying to take his life when he was not paying attention, there was no constant struggle for survival, nor a need to check and improve on every skill he had learned, no weapons to maintain, no monsters to hunt to grow stronger, no quests, raids, dungeons or faction wars. All there was right now was just him and the surrounding flowers. He quietly lowered his head and closed his eyes and allowed himself to drift into a peaceful slumber. Or, he would have liked it to have been peaceful, however, he was haunted by nightmares, the hellish creatures he desperately struggled against, the people whose blood had strained his hands until the rivers were dyed red from him trying to cleanse himself from their blood. The woman whom smiled even as he drove his sword through her chest, the angel that he hated only to receive her love and life in the end. Each came to him and assaulted him one after another, their faces of love and terror, hate and murder forever etched into his very soul. He screamed and fought, cried and laughed, his body broke, his mind destroyed, his soul forever tainted in sin, he could do nothing but watch his nightmares as if he was looking through the eyes of a stranger. ¡°Ah!¡± Jolted awake by his nightmares, a low scream came out as he jumped off the bench and instinctively tried to reach for his sword, but his hand grasped nothing but the air beside him which had initially caused him to panic, but he slowly started to remember he was currently not in ¡°king¡¯s Rite¡±. Sitting back down he couldn¡¯t he couldn¡¯t help but recall his nightmare, especially the final image of the angel that choose death as a final means to show her love for him. There were far too many mixed emotions that he could not fully explain. He had long thought he had thrown away every emotion for her expect for the hate he felt, but now he couldn¡¯t shake her image from his mind, her indifferent expression, her face covered in tears, her final smile. Every image causing his heart to shake. *sigh* He sighed deeply as he covered his face with his hands. When he did the first thing that came to his mind was how soft they were, they were not callused from swinging a weapon around each and daily, the were not scared from the countless battles and hunts he had experience. This world was by far too different from the one he had lived in and would once again live in. ¡°Yes¡­yes, tell him I¡¯ll be back soon, yes that should be fine and move my 2 p.m. to 3 p.m. No¡­¡± Hearing the voice Eian moved his hands from his face and looked up to see a woman with fiery red hair neatly tied in a bun, wearing a business suit and talking on her cellphone walk by. His attention was quickly drawn to the cellphone; it was something that he had completely forgotten existed. ¡°Hmm¡± Eian thought to himself for a moment before reaching inside his leather jacket¡¯s pocket and quickly pulling out his old cellphone. It was not a newer model like the business lady¡¯s, it was a model from a couple years ago, but because Eian had always been somewhat of a loner he did not require it to have much function other than making calls when he needed too, checking his e-mails and playing music as he traveled on the bus or train. Swiping his finger across the screen, the lock screen switched to the password screen. He paused for a moment trying to recall his password, but then a self-ridiculing smile appeared on his face, his password was quiet simple, it was (1,2,4,3), he couldn¡¯t help but laugh at himself. Thinking of his phone, the password to his phone and even his current clothing, everything was simple, the simplicity of it all was a reflection of him as a person, or rather a reflection of the person he once was. ¡°Ah¡­it¡¯s almost time¡± He said in a low voice as he saw the time on his phone. He once again reached inside his pocket and pulled out the headphones for his phone before plugging it into his phone and placing the ear buds into his ear. It was awhile since he listened to music from this world and he might never have the chance to listen to it ever again. He found the song he wished to listen to and pressed the play button on his phone. ¡°I keep a close watch on this heart of mine I keep my eyes wide open all the time I keep the ends out for the tie that binds Because you''re mine, I walk the line¡± The song played as he closed his eyes and sung along with it. ¡°I find it very, very easy to be true I find myself alone when each day is through Yes, I''ll admit that I''m a fool for you Because you''re mine, I walk the line¡± A light slowly appeared in the sky and started to gradually grow brighter, even with his eyes closed the brightness of the light shun through to his eyes. ¡°As sure as night is dark and day is light I keep you on my mind both day and night And happiness I''ve known proves that it''s right Because you''re mine, I walk the line¡± He could hear it, even with the music playing in his ears, the screams of everyone in the city, they were terrified and confused, the could not understand what the light was or what was happening to them. ¡°You''ve got a way to keep me on your side You give me cause for love that I can''t hide For you I know I''d even try to turn the tide Because you''re mine, I walk the line¡± ¡°Brothers, my heart¡¯s desire and prayer to God for the Israelites is that they may be saved. For I can testify about them that they are zealous for God, but their zeal is not based on knowledge.¡± Eian silently prayed for everyone for unlike everyone he knew the faith that was about to befall them, a faith that could be said a lot crueler than if they were to die now. ¡°I keep a close watch on this heart of mine I keep my eyes wide open all the time I keep the ends out for the tie that binds Because you''re mine, I walk the li¡­¡± The final verse of the song played but could not finish before the blindingly bright light disappeared and with it the music stopped playing. It was quiet, Eian slowly opened his eyes and his mouth. An indifferent voice sounded out at the same time that Eian opened his mouth to speak. [Welcome to ¡°King¡¯s Rite¡±] ¡°Welcome to ¡°King¡¯s Rite¡±¡± They both said simultaneously. Chapter 3- Blessing, Guardian , Titles Eian stood by himself in the room covered entirely by white snow. He could never forget this room; it was the room that marked his journey into ¡°King¡¯s Rite¡±. His nightmare had once again started, but unlike the last time, this time he had chosen this. Since there was no way to avoid this fate the only thing he could do at the moment was fight. To get stronger and fight, and to do that he needed a fresh start. There were too many secrets discovered too late. Too many people that should have been allies, instead turned into bitter enemies. Too many powers squandered by those who were lucky enough to find them but too dumb to know how to use them. However, now that he had returned he would not allow such things to go to waste, he would not let so many resources be wasted in wars of petty grievances and false enmity. As he stood lost in his own thoughts the angel silently hovered in the air in front of him observing him. She had clearly heard him say ¡°Welcome to King¡¯s Rite¡± alongside her, but she couldn¡¯t help but wonder how that was even possible. [No one from such a barbaric world should know of ¡°King¡¯s Rite¡±. That is why the ¡°Counsel¡± had commanded the Angels to act as a guide for those that came from The Blue World. However, I clearly heard him say ¡°Welcome to King¡¯s Rite.¡± Not only that but he did not display any panic or confusion as to where he currently was. Is confusion not the common reaction, or perhaps they had underestimated those from the barbaric world?] She silently pondered to herself as she kept watch over his calm demeanor. It did not take long before Eian¡¯s attention once again turned to the Angel that was wordlessly watching him. She was the same as he remembered her. Her beauty did not change once in the 25 years her had known her and neither did her temperament. The end was the only time he had seen her face display any type of emotion. Looking at her, his emotions once again became conflicted. It was impossible for him to say he was not moved at her final sacrifice, however was it that easy to put down the hate he felt towards her and those above her. Was a final moment of sacrifice equate to a lifetime of suffering and death? Could he just forgive her and start over again with her like he has done for his life? *Sigh* ¡°One step at a time¡± He closed his eyes and sighed while mumbling to himself. There was a lot he wanted to do and nothing would be accomplished if he rushed forward, so perhaps he should do the same with Elize. Progress one step at a time. [I know you must currently be confused, however, the time we currently have is short and there is a lot that must be explained-] While trying to come to a decision and calm his conflicting thoughts Elize slowly began to speak in order to explain his current situation, but there would be nothing new to him and there were still things to do before the game started. ¡°I want my blessing¡± Eian said interrupting her speech. Hearing him Elize was momentarily stunned. Her indifferent face showed a hint of disbelief before quickly changing back. [What¡­?] She asked slowly to make sure that she was not hearing things. ¡°I want my blessing¡± Eian repeated once more, this time slower than the previous. He had noticed her look of disbelief and was slightly amused by it on the inside. He remembered when they first met, he was confused and afraid, but she had not allowed him anytime to full adjust before hitting him with an onslaught of information. Seeing how the positions had been somewhat reversed made him a bit happy, of course he did not show it on his face. [I see¡­very well please give me a moment] She replied after allowing what she had just heard to sink in for a moment. It was not unusual for some creatures to have some sort of blessing before arriving to ¡°King¡¯s Rite¡±, however having them ask for their blessing upon arriving at ¡°King¡¯s Rite¡± was a rare case. Even more so for a human who came from a known primitive world to ask for his blessing. Now at least she could confirm that this human before her had prior knowledge of ¡°King¡¯s Rite¡±. While Elize was quietly retrieving his blessing for him, Eian focused on the spot between his eyes, opening the passage to his third eye allowing his energy to flow into it and allowing himself to view his status menu.

¡°Huh!?¡± Seeing his stats, he couldn¡¯t help but exclaim in surprise. While majority of his stats had remained the same as they originally were when he was first summoned, his Perception and Potential had actually increased and not by any small amounts. His perception had increased by 10, the equivalent of having gained 10 levels, and his Potential had increased by 30. While Perception could increase by increasing one¡¯s levels, increasing a person¡¯s Potential was something that was difficult. However, even though it had increased he still couldn¡¯t help but feel slightly depressed at the fact that it was still below average. His other stats were not bad; however, they could not be considered good either. At best, they were only slightly above average. *sigh* Thinking of how bad his start was he sighed in wonder as too how he made it as far as he did, but glancing over at Elize, he knew the fact that he had survived was due to her guidance. [Ah!] Suddenly Elize exclaimed gaining his attention. ¡°What¡¯s the matter?¡± [How is it possible that you for you to have a higher order blessing?] ¡°What? A higher order blessing?¡± [Yes¡­blessings have different ranks like everything else, a high order blessing can only come from ¡°The First Garden¡± ¡­it is unheard of for anyone to receive a blessing from there unless¡­] ¡°Unless?¡± Hearing her pause Eian encouraged her to continue. This was not the first time he had heard her mention ¡°The First Garden¡±, however he was never able to gain much information into what it really was. She would always abruptly end their conversation or change it to a new topic. A blue light suddenly appeared before him cutting his train of thought, its sudden appearance at first caused him to be startled, but upon remembering where he was and the conversation he was in, he quickly regained his composure. He slowly reached his hand out towards the light, it gave off no heat nor was it cold, there was no feel to it, however, it strangely felt welcoming. As if recognizing his touch the light reacted and quickly flashed before him and then flew into his chest. It was an odd feeling, it felt as if he was wrapped in a silky cocoon. It felt familiar yet along with it, it felt lonely, there was a longing to this feeling, a certain pain that could not be put into words. He could not understand why, but a faint glow gathered around him and realization shrouded him. It was Elize¡¯s blessing to him, her blessing had taken form as a ¡°Guardian Spirit¡± blanketing over him. [A Guardian Spirit¡­] Elize was once again surprised, she knew that a blessing from ¡°The First Garden¡± would be no small matter, but if they had presented him with a ¡°Guardian Spirit¡±, in her eyes and in the eyes of the other angels if they could witness this scene you would think that they would place great importance in Eian to assign him one. There was something else that bothered her, she did not know why but she felt as if this ¡°Guardian Spirit¡± was somehow familiar. It had taken her a second before she regained her composure. [Congratulations¡­because you have received a ¡°Guardian Spirit¡± you have unlocked the title ¡°Spirit Blessing¡± 1 million ¡°Points of Rite¡± will be added to your current points¡­you now have 54,091,120¡­wait¡­what?] She was astounded how could it be possible, not only did he already have ¡°PoR¡± (Points of Rite) before King¡¯s Rite had even begun but he had an insanely massive amount. Then she suddenly recalled, he had received more than one blessing and due to the ¡°Guardian Spirit¡± she had accidentally overlooked what his other blessing could be, that was the only explanation there could be as to why he would have so many ¡°PoR¡± but that only raised more questions. Why would the ¡°Garden¡± value him so much as to give him two amazing gifts and not just that but if the ¡°Garden¡± wanted to give him points why give him such an odd number, if one were to exclude the 1 million points he had just received that would mean that he received 53,091,120 points as a gift. Furrowing her eyebrows, confusion was riddled across her face, she could not fully grasp this situation and could no longer maintain her indifference. While Elize was trying to process everything Eian was simply standing still losing himself in the warm and the similarity of the glow covering him. He slowly closed his eyes and a flurry of information appeared in his mind.

Reading the information on the blessing, the corner of Eian¡¯s face slightly twitched. ¡°What the hell¡­why is there such a ridiculous blessing, even among of fiend¡¯s no one had something like this before¡± He softly murmured to himself. ¡°Elize¡­what other titles did I obtain?¡± [Ah!] Hearing him call her name she was slightly startled as she herself was lost in thought completely forgetting to announce his other titles he gained. [You have obtained the titles ¡°Points Megalomania¡± as well as ¡°First of the New Generation¡±] ¡°¡°First of the New Generation¡±?¡± [Yes, it is because you are the first of the new summoned to gain ¡°PoR¡±] While Elize was explaining Eian once again closed his eyes to check the effects of the 3 titles.

¡°Tsk¡± Eian couldn¡¯t help but suck in a cold breath. Each title was good in its own right, but considering the fact that he was still only level one and just starting, it would not be an overstatement to say that each title would provide him with a major boost. He couldn¡¯t help but slightly tremble with excitement thinking of the benefits he was experiencing just by receiving his blessings. Looking at his ¡°PoR¡± how could he not be excited.
