Chapter 239 - Another hint

In the game, the blessing that he received from the goddess Athena was one of his aces. It was a great help to every big battle that Souta faced in the game. Without it, he wouldn't be able to win most of his battles.

When he was fighting the demons, the commandments, the deadly sins, and the zodiacs the blessings greatly helped him. Even though he wasn't at their level the blessings helped him shortened the gap in their powers.

He wouldn't be able to fight them in a one on one battle. Several huge countries would work together just to subdue a single person from the bringer of calamity.

A blessing differs from each god-level creatures. It all depends on the power and abilities of the creature. Raeshka was the monster lord of destruction. Destruction wasn't just a title for her. Instead, it was her specialty as her powers were related to destruction. Also, she was in the top 3 strongest monster lord in the Forest of Eternal Light. Her destructive powers were higher than most of the monster lord in this place befitting the name monster lord of destruction.

So the monster that received her blessings will gain some of her characteristics. The overwhelming destructive powers of the destruction queen.

A god-level creature wouldn't give its blessings to any creatures because of some limitations. That's why Souta was shocked when he heard that Raeshka would give her blessing to a second evolution monster. Normally, a god-level creature would only give their blessings to their trusted subordinates or the strongest subordinates.

In the game, Souta completed a lot of Athena's quests before he became one of her heroes. If a person becomes the hero of the goddess Athena, they will receive her blessings. He worked hard just to become one of her heroes to receive the blessing of a god but a second evolution monster would receive a blessing just like that. On Raeshka's whim, a second evolution monster would gain the power to fight the higher rank existence.

He only knew basic things about the blessings so he didn't know what Raeshka was thinking for her to give her blessings just like that.

'I will fight the chosen monster and it will be a tough fight. At most, that chosen monster would gain the power of a third evolution monster that didn't have the power of monster orb.' Souta thought as he rubbed his chin. He was calculating the rewards in fighting such a monster.

When he said that the chosen monster didn't have the power of the monster orb, he meant it as fighting a weak third evolution monster that wouldn't use the [Monster Orb Release] skill.

A third evolution monster's level was between 40 and 59. A weak third evolution monster was between 40 and 45. It was a newly evolved monster that didn't fully grasp the power of the monster orb.

"What is it? Do you agree in my proposal or not?" Raeshka asked Souta when she saw him didn't answer her proposal immediately.

"Wait... Can I ask what rewards will I received?" Souta asked in turn.

"Anything. You can ask anything to me." Raeshka said without hesitation.

"I see..." Souta nodded as he rubbed his chin. Then, what if he said that he wanted to receive her blessings? Will she give it to him or not?

Nevertheless, he didn't want to receive her blessing. It would cause a commotion in the county of humans and demis if they knew that he had the blessings of a monster lord. The government would easily identify that it was a blessing from a monster lord because he would gain the power of best feram.

Yeah, even though he was a second evolution monster he would be able to freely control best feram using the blessing of the monster lord.

He couldn't think of an explanation to say to the government if they discover that. It wouldn't work even if he said that he saved their subordinates or not. It was a fact that no monster lord would willingly give their blessings to a demi who would use it to slaughter the monsters.

If it was a god or deity then Souta would receive the blessing without hesitation but from a monster lord. It was like digging his own grave as he currently didn't have a plan to leave this continent.

'Then...' Souta unconsciously grin as he lifted his head and looked at Raeshka. He slowly opened his mouth and said, "Yeah, I agreed to your proposal. Now I will state what I want if I won the battle."

"Good. State what you want..." Raeshka said as the smile on her face grew wider. She just wanted to watch a fight that would entertain her.

...

"Fine... I agree to your condition." Raeshka nodded after she heard the rewards that Souta wanted.

"My lord! That's!" The fifth evolution subordinates of Raeshka exclaimed. They didn't agree to the reward that Souta said. No, they didn't even agree that their lord would give her blessing to the second evolution monster.

The blessing of their lord wasn't for a mere second evolution.

"I don't care about what you are thinking. I just want to watch something I haven't seen before." Raeshka said in a cold tone as she glanced at her subordinates.

Her subordinates shut their mouth seeing her getting angry. They bowed their heads and asked forgiveness. They would respect the wish of the lord of the monsters.

Raeshka raised her hand and healed all the second evolution monsters. She also helped Souta recover the mana that he drained in the battle.

Souta sighed in relief when Raeshka healed Yuko's wounds and recovered his mana. It seems that she only wanted to see him fight using his full strength.

The battle among the subordinates of Raeshka started. The winner of this battle will receive her blessing and everyone fight for it. They were just a second evolution monster but they were given a chance to receive a blessing so they were excited about it.

Souta was watching the battle on the side. The winner of this battle will fight him.

"Hmm...? Oh, I forgot something." He recalled something in his mind. He turned to Raeshka and said, "Can I call someone? Don't worry I won't tell anyone about this. I promise it in my name, Souta Ieshi."

"...what!? You're an Ieshi?" Raeshka looked at Souta with wide eyes. She then shook her head. "No, that's not possible... The Ieshis are all humans. There's no demi in their family much less a monster."

'Ieshi? I've been hearing this clan name more recently. Just what the hell is this Ieshi clan? I didn't hear anything about them when I was playing the game.' Souta frowned when he heard her words. He should try to gather information out of her mouth in the meantime.

He slowly opened his mouth and asked, "What do you mean by that?"

"Forget it. I don't want to talk about it. Also, you can do what you wanted to do just now." Raeshka said as she went back to watch the battle.

'It seems that I won't get any information from her. If she said that she doesn't want to talk about that topic then I couldn't do anything regarding it. I can't be helped I don't have the same status as her.' Souta secretly thought as he glanced at Raeshka.

He first heard the Ieshi clan from Cl.u.s.ter when he met her. He didn't think that he would hear it again from Raeshka, a monster lord. Just like Cl.u.s.ter, Raeshka thought that he was a member of this clan when she heard his surname.

He clearly heard that Raeshka mentioned the Ieshi clan. There's a lot of mystery surrounding this clan and Souta grew curious about it. First, it was only Cl.u.s.ter. Cl.u.s.ter said that she read some records of it in her country. Then, Raeshka knew some information about this clan.

Souta wanted to know it but he couldn't force it out of her. He was too weak to do that. Truthfully, he was lucky that Raeshka didn't kill him. If it was the other monster lords, they would kill Souta.

'Ieshi clan. A clan that have the power to predict the future. A long time ago, they predicted that the world will fall.' This was the only thing that Souta knew about the mysterious Ieshi clan. This world was the strongest world out there in the universe. The mana density in this place was one hundred times higher than the second higher world.

The people of this world called this world the central world. They called this world like that because of simple things... This world was like the center of all the world in the universe.

This world is at the top.

But the real name of this world was Imperium.

Speaking of sub-worlds, some of the sub-world have a mana density one thousand times lower than the Imperium world. A single piece of rock from Imperium world would become a priceless treasure in those kinds of worlds.

If this world fell, the other world would follow suit.
