Inside the store, Alva also came out from inside.
"Thank you for saving my life."
Alva knelt down on one knee, placing her hand on her chest. Perform the ritual of a knight in front of Noir. Her eyes were filled with more respect and fear than when they first met.
From the beginning, she thought that this young man with silver gray hair was only a little stronger than her master. But now it seems clear that this is not the case.
Brenna is a Demigod-level witch of the Witch Association. Even though it's weaker than the Sword God, it won't be too much weaker.
Such a person, standing in front of Noir, was no different from an obedient little girl, not daring to do anything that would make Noir uncomfortable. It can be inferred how huge the difference between the two is.
"No need to thank me, you already paid anyway."
"Ah yes, has your master responded to your message yet? When will he get here?"
As for Alva's Sword God master, Noir is looking forward to his appearance.
A Demigod-level witch can already bring him hundreds of thousands of "Accumulation" profits, so how much more profit will a God bring him?
"My master has answered, sir. He said he would be here in two days."
"Two days… is good…"
Noir muttered, then smiled at Alva.
"It's okay, Sword God just take it easy."
"Thank you for your understanding."
"By the way… your master is the Sword God, which means he is God level, right?"
"... Dear Sir…"
"Huh?"
"He must be… Demigod? I think so…"
Alva replied a bit sheepishly. Every leader on the surface of a major power is also a Demigod, so no one pays much attention, but why are Noir's words a bit strange?
That's right, Noir really isn't very happy.
"Just Demigod? So why is it called the Sword God?"
"This... it's just a title..."
Looking at Alva's embarrassed and distraught expression, Noir no longer intentionally bullied her.
Demigod? Demigod is also very good.
Demigod of the Witch Association are about to step foot on the God stage. Noir did not believe that a similar arrangement would not attract a Demigod.
Just with this point, Noir is confident that he can empty the Sword God's assets... no, make a transaction worth all of the Sword God's assets.
"Okay, you can stay here for the next two days. Don't be formal, just treat this place as your home."
"Thank you, sir."
Alva nodded.
Even though Noir told her to make herself at home, how dare Alva do that?
Seeing Noir start to lean back in his chair to read a book. Alva stood up and kept a distance from him, she stood straight and dignified, like a knight protecting her king.
Noir just glanced at it, then didn't pay any attention.
Because right now his mind is sinking into the system.
Right at this moment, Noir discovered a new function of the system. Something he had never seen before appeared.
"System, what is this thing?"
"Consider that you cannot increase your strength through the usual route. The system has decided to create a new ability to help you compensate for the difference in strength."
"Incarnation of The Truth."
"The domain of The Truth will be expanded and imposed on you."
System explanation.
Extremely easy to understand.
Basically turning him out there into him in here. Whatever he can do in the store, he can do the same outside.
"Every time you use it, you will have to consume Accumulation."
Hearing this, Noir's excitement was like a fire being extinguished by a bucket of water.
What an unconscionable system. It was impossible to take money from him through increasing his strength, so a new ability was created to take money from him.
"Never mind, better late than never."
Outside reality, Noir suddenly stood up and walked outside the store. Alva was a bit surprised so she turned her eyes to see what he was preparing to do.
The moment Noir stepped out, Alva's vision changed.
It seemed to have blown up.
Alva saw a golden river with no beginning or end, extending to infinity.
Inside that river are countless air bubbles, each air bubble looks insignificant, but they are countless images of something overlapping each other, as if recording every point, every moment from birth to death.
These air bubbles contain people, plants, mountains, wind,... from as small as an elementary particle, to as large as a world. All things can be found within their respective air bubbles.
"The Golden Path..."
This word suddenly appeared in Alva's mind, even though she had never had any concept before.
At this moment, everything returned to normal. Alva saw Noir walking outside, she didn't even have any memories of the last 0.013 seconds.
"Alva, have I changed anything?"
Noir turned around and asked.
"Sir, you look… fine. I think so…"
"It means no change."
Noir sighed, looked at the 80 "Accumulation" flying out of his wallet and silently regretted it.
But at least he can verify that his power has not changed. However, Noir speculates that the stronger the enemy you encounter, or the more difficult an action you perform, the more "Accumulation" will be consumed. It will not be limited to just a few dozen "Accumulation" like this.
…
Half a day passed, in a place far away from Jelro city.
Brenna finally reached the location indicated by the card. The witch stood in the air, looking down below.
All that entered her sight was a desolate area, the energy here was fragile and meager. Even animals are few and far between.
There was nothing but barren ground and dry trees.
"Damn it! Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!!!"
Demigod-level aura exploded from Brenna, turning into tsunami waves that swept across the surrounding environment. Space was fractured, matter was destroyed, entire areas were destroyed by the wrath of the Witch of Decay.
In Brenna's mind, the thought of returning to Jelro to question Noir appeared, but that thought was immediately extinguished.
Because she's afraid.
Noir is too powerful, not to mention herself, even adding an entire Witch Association cannot make up for the gap between the two sides.
Finally, the anger passed away, leaving only the sound of sobbing filled with humiliation.
The entire fortune, in exchange for fake information. But she herself even wasted time running here to check.
However at that moment, something happened.
The ground collapsed, revealing a large crack across it. Brenna had also noticed this, her senses approaching the rift.
Suddenly, her senses were disturbed, making it impossible for Brenna to see what was underneath the crack.
