Chapter 15 - Silicon

Mark thought for a moment. {Well i probably have no use for this so using it to buff the Earth Tiger}

[The Mount is Evolving into a Mid-Grade mortal Pet]

The tiger stood as its mana was increasing at a slow pace, so was its size. It's tail became longer and the tip transormed into a ball of earth with multiple spikes protruding from them.

*ROOOOAARR*

[Your pet has gained some skills]

///[Earth prison],[Earthquake],[Rock Smash, [Earth Kings Presence], [ShockWave]///

"Nice, Kira let's go" Mark jumped on top of the Earth tiger followed by Kira.

Soon they were out of the dungeon. "Earth Tiger, let's travel underground"

The Earth tiger nodded its head and then used a skill. [Earth Burrow].

Soon they were moving underground and the Earth tiger moved while burrowing holes in the earth.

[Lily Blight Lvl 10,Stellar Dragonborn, Stellar Swordsman has sent a friend request]

Mark accepted almost immediately

"Hey sis, how's it going on your planet i am currently underground riding a giant Earth tiger with Kira—uh Kira if you can see this say hi to my sister"

Mark moved the screen moved towards Kira "Ooh, you look like master, is this [Transmission Magic]"

The screen turned back to Mark.

[I've been doing fine, i just got a mount] She replied to his earlier questions with a smile.

"Cool, as you can see i am riding mine" He replied with a smirk making Lily's smile turn into a pout.

She huffed and looked at what mark would assume her own mount. [Yeah i'll be riding Voltis now]

"You named yours…wow that makes me feel like a jerk now" He said thoughtfully.

Lilu chucled. [Ok i'll see you back at home i am taking a break right now after i reach a safe place]

"See you later sis" The screen switched off and sam stared at the earth tiger. A name suitable for a large cat that can manipulate earth.

"Ok i'll call you Terra"

[You have named your Mount Terra]

"Ok terra lets go, if you can locate a safe place like a cave or something I'll make sure to reward you" Terra roared in delight even though mark didn't really have anything to give it but he may find something.

After more burrowing Terra finally digged into a large cave entrance. "Not bad, well I'll see you guys later"

Kira tilted her head. "Where are you going master"

"I'll just meditate for some minutes that's all" As he said that he crossed his legs on terra and immediately logged out.

After a while Mark came out of his game capsule and then freshened up, after doing all that, he went downstairs.

"So cousin Lily I heard that uncle hasn't returned yet" That voice...Mark recognised it immediately it was ofcourse the voice of Anne, a cousin from their mother's side of the family.

"Yeah he is busy doing work"

.....

The godbeast of Extinction or known to humans as Eliot King has stopped the arrival of the primordial for some time even if their battle did wipe out an entire star system. "Time to go and meet those kids...I hope they won't be too angry at me..."

.....

"Oh hey Mark, your finally done playing" Lily asked with a smile.

"Yeah I did as you can see, I was going to go out to buy some IV bags also I thought about learning how to use a scythe" He said with a nod.

Victoria chuckled. "Mark I think that would be dangerous for you to use an actual scythe, you have no use looking good with it"

"Hmph it's not about looking good it is about having the skill while looking good" He retorted with a smirk.

Anne laughed softly. "Well, if you want to look cool while swinging a scythe around, you'd better train hard. Otherwise, you'll just be flailing like a scarecrow in a storm."

Mark rolled his eyes. "You'll see. Once I master it, I'll be unstoppable."

Lily leaned against the kitchen counter, her arms crossed and a knowing smile on her face. "Mark, do you even know where to buy a scythe? It's not like they're sold in your average weapon shop downtown."

"Primogen doesn't only create games you know, they make a variety of weapons,guns,tanks,missiles, Satellites, they are also in charge of multiple spaceships, I could just buy a Virtual weapon, it's like a virtual representation of our weapos I'm godcraft, like My Zenith Of Destruction" He explained the enigma of a company which was primogen.

Lily raised an eyebrow, clearly impressed. "Okay, fair point. Primogen really does have its hands in everything. But are you sure you'll be able to handle a scythe, even in-game? It's a pretty advanced weapon style."

"Sis as I said, I am a destruction reaper I reap lives while causing as much destruction as I can so why do you doubt me" He told her while looking at her with a hurt expression.

"Sure oh great god of death and destruction, if you're going to buy a virtual weapon get one for me too" She asked.

Mark sighed. "Yes I'll do that, now I need to cook lunch"

"But we already did that" Anne smiled cheekily.

"Is that Soo...Hmm well I can't make my cousin's wait for me so let's go eat" As he said that they all went to the dining table, the menu was...fried rice and chicken. A lot of chicken. But Mark didn't back away from such a sight, he proudly devoured.

*Ten minutes later*

Mark was halfway through eating the food when he suddenly dropped the spoon. "I'm full, I'll eat the rest of it later"

Lily looked at him with a smile. "Mark your twin sister and her cousins made this food with love and your just eating half do you also half love us"

Mark froze, spoon still in hand, as Lily's words hung in the air. The table went quiet, Anne covering her mouth to suppress a laugh, and Victoria smirked knowingly.

"Oh, come on, Lily," Mark groaned, dramatically clutching his chest. "You can't just emotionally blackmail me over fried rice and chicken!"

Anne burst out laughing, nearly spilling her drink. "He's already down, Lily! Don't kick him while he's struggling!"

Lily crossed her arms, feigning a pout. "If you're going to wield a scythe and call yourself the 'Destruction Reaper,' you better at least finish a plate of fried rice!"

Mark sighed, defeated, and picked up his spoon again. "Fine, fine… I'll finish it. But don't expect me to duel someone right after."

The girls chuckled as Mark resumed eating, though at a noticeably slower pace.

Soon he was done eating and immediately went outside.

***Garden Of Stone***

Medusa sat on a throne as she looked down below. She looked at the countless figures who were frozen in stone, her gaze landed on them one by one, her hair moved around as if they were alive, the constant sounds of hissing rang beside her ear.

Medusa remembered the times she was a young human with mortality and a relatively normal life, but Athen was jealous of her beauty.

"Beauty huh...now whoever looks at me turns to stone" A very unfortunate curse, a curse so bad that even she would sometimes wish for her own death.

The serpents coiled around into a ponytail. "At least you guys have been with me since the beginning"

Medusa was of the serpent clan before she was cursed with divinity. "I didn't even like Poseidon, I really do wonder who spread such misinformed about me ever liking that old sea serpent, that was hundreds of thousands of years ago though"

Though she was bitter she had more on her mind at the moment. Soon a man with black hair and purple eyes arrived inside the room looking at Medusa straight in the eyes. "Hello Medusa, it seems you like keeping statues of some people"

Medusa sighed. "Eliot King, what do you want I have already said that too much interaction between me and you could lead to them knowing"

"So what it's not like I would get killed" he said with a carefree attitude.

"Yes they can't kill extinction itself but the one that recently joined their Pantheon might" Medusa added sarcasm to her words..

Eliot raised an eyebrow. "And who is that?"

"It is a Fallen God, The Godbeast of Secrecy, Silicon" Eliot's expression shifted slightly, his carefree demeanor faltering for just a moment. "Silicon? That slippery shadow managed to join their ranks? Interesting… and troubling."

Medusa nodded, her serpentine hair swaying slightly as if mirroring her unease. "Silicon operates differently than the rest. Information is his weapon, and secrets are his currency. Even you, Eliot, are not entirely immune to his reach."

Eliot chuckled darkly. "Oh, I know. Silicon's whispers are already weaving their way across the realms. But that's why I'm here, Medusa. The balance is shifting again, and I need to know which side you're on."

Medusa leaned back into her throne, her emerald eyes narrowing. "I am not on anyone's side, Eliot. I've been cursed into this existence, and my only concern is surviving it. However… if Silicon is as dangerous as we think, then neutrality might not remain an option."

Eliot crossed his arms, his purple eyes glowing faintly. "Good. At least you're aware. I'll handle Silicon, but I may need you to act as a deterrent if he decides to step into my territory."
