Chapter 4 - First target

__In the Sublimation Realm__

In a dense forest, wind rushed and motes of light gathered wildly in a spot.

Soon, the vague outline of a human formed, As soon as the outline was completely formed, the light broke away and revealed Aelion.

Aelion looked around in confusion, Seeing the forest, he was stunned and muttered, "So this is the sublimation realm"

Then he opened the status page.

[Name: Aelion Velthane]

[Race: Human(Mortal)]

[Talent: Purity Sage Body(EX-rank)]

[Title: Child Of Mana(S rank)]

[Class: None]

[Sub Class: None]

[Profession: None]

[level: 0]

[Strength: 10]

[Agility: 10]

[Constitution: 10]

[Intelligence: 10]

[Charm: 10]

Special Stats: None]

[Skill: Mana circulation(Level 1)]

[Note: 10 is the stats of peak mortal]

Aeliob finally got a look at his own stats, Seeing the note, He relaxed somewhat, Since these were the peak mortal stats, He could somewhat say that it was like a deterrence to save him in the wild.

Then he opened the Inventory function, There was a single voucher and a sword.

He took the voucher out of the inventory. As soon as he held it, Its information appeared in a screen.

[Time extending voucher(Exclusive item)]

[Description: A item that is used to extend the time you have left in sublimation realm by 6 months]

[Note: A compensation for bringing you 6 months early]

Aelion stared at the voucher intently, and used it without hesitation.

[18 months Have been added to the time you have left in the sublimation realm]

[Current time left: 18 months 1 day]

His eyes widened. 18 months, That's exactly 3 times the amount specified in the ticket.

How did it triple?

As he was wondering, A notification sounded.

[You have discovered one of the effects of your talent ]

[Purity Sage Body]

[Description: #@#$…]

[Effect 1: All the treasures you consume will have their effects tripled]

Aelions eyes widened, But, he closed them again.

He remembers the term: Treasures.

In his current condition, He hedged no way of finding them.

What he needed to focus on was survival.

He took the sword out. As soon as he held it, His eyes sharpened and became cold and steely.

With determination, he stepped into the forest. Searching for his first prey.

__In Earth, At Velthane manor__

It has been an hour since Celestine has decided to sell her shares, The higher official already called, and the sale went through.

In a smooth way, she got millions of credits, Which immediatly went into renovating the house and increasing the security.

Celestine also hired a weapon master to teach her, An animal specialist to learn more about animals and their behaviour.

She was doing everything she can to be as prepared as possible for the event that was going to occur in the coming 6 months.

Her eyes blazed with determination as she muttered, 'I hope I can see you as soon as possible'

__In the palace of the demon race royalty__

A old man sat on a starry mat, Kneeling before the statue of their race ancestor.

As he was praying, His eyes turned completely white as he felt the fate of their demon race fluctuating intensely, With 10% opportunity and 90% percent death.

He hesitated, I was 90% death after all, But as he was hesitating, the ancestral statue before him glowed a purple demonic glow.

The old man trembled and He stood up so fast that a sonic boom escaped from the room.

His voice boomed, Resounding across the planet, "Prepare the prodigies of the demon race, Princess Eleanor is going to lead the young generation into the sublimation realm, The treasure is open for those that make contribution"

"I repeat, this relates to the raise and fall of the race"

"The legacy of the Demon Emperor is going to open in the sublimation realm"

Hearing this, The whole demon kingdom boiled, They were a war loving, conquest craving race by nature, The long period of peace, development and advancement wasn't suited for them.

Rather then making them advance, It was making their bloodlines degrade.

Now that the old ancestor had given the command to prepare for war.. They would make the world remember why they were called demons in the first place.

Meanwhile the old ancestor looked at the stars, his gaze incredibly profound as he muttered, "I hope you get back before its too late, My son, Your daughter needs you the most currently, I hope you come back soon"

__In the sublimation realm__

For the past one hour, Aelion was wandering the forest to see if there was any suitable prey.

He finally decided on his first prey, An old wolf that was abandoned by the pack because It was injured.

It was perfect because, Even if it launched a cry, Its pack wouldn't come to save it.

Aelion readied the sword, He slowly circulated the mana in his body, preparing for battle.

Then, In a swift motion, he stepped out of the bushes and launched a attack on the wolf with his sword raised over his head.

The wolf entered a battle ready state even before Aelion came into view by sensing the air flow and mana in the surroundings.

In a swift motion, The wolf lunged at Aelions legs, since his sword was raised high into the air.

Aelion also somewhat panicked as it went for the leg, But.. he wasn't unprepared.

[Inferior Mana coating]

It was a skill he created when experimenting with the [Mana circulation skill]

The moment the wolf bit down, It sensed a wall of mana blocking its path.

Aelion reacted quickly and pierced the sword downward, directly striking the spine of the wolf.

The wolf rushed back, but is whole sturcture was shaken, Its moment speed severely affected.

Hatred filled the wolfs eyes, why should it have to suffer?

It was the previous wolf pack leader, because they were lacking food, It risked its own life to secure the food, But became severely injured and crippled its own mana veins in the process.

And how did its pack repay it? They abandoned him.

Now even a puny human that it could have killed with a swipe of paw was able to fight on par with him.

Hatred filled the old wolfs eyes.

Seeing the hatred in its eyes, Aelion paused for a moment..

He knew the look in the Wolf's eyes.

Heck, he had the same look some hours ago.
