9 I’m the King of the World!

[You were revived within the safe area of the Altar of Order.]

Half groggy, Liam opened his eyes and saw the purple sky of the Neutral Dimension.

"Liam, are you okay?" Maybe he was delirious, but Liam could swear that Genex's voice had a worried tone.

"Dying is painful... I do not recommend anyone..." he murmured as he sat down.

Looking around, the white field was full of awakened.

"How long am I out?"

"Just 3 minutes."

"Any news?" He asked as he got up and snapped his back.

"None."

Liam felt strange. When he was dying, he could feel the darkness approaching. A chill had taken over her body. It was something he was not anxious to repeat.

"Genex, what are my earnings?"

[Blood Core: 26.386]

[Soul Core: 4]

[Rank-G Chest: 21]

[Rank-E Chest: 3]

[Contribution Points: 18.847]

Before you do anything, he first opened the chests.

Of the Rank-G's Chests, his gains were: 120 Blood Core, 7 types of weapons, 3 Small Healing Potions, 2 Small Mana Potions, 2 skills books, and 1 necklace.

Of Rank-E Chests, he won 1 silver armor, 1 skill book, and 1 Ancient Scroll.

As much as he wanted to know what the skills were, he was much more curious about the parchment. By the time he had won 2 scroll's. The first gave him a very good title, the second gave him the opportunity to multiply 1 item at the cost of MP. What would that third party give you?

Liam opened it. Although he knew that something good would definitely come, what he most wanted was something that would boost his MP.

[You have opened the Ancient Scroll: Wish and Fate.]

[This parchment contains the power of a star of fate capable of granting desires.]

[Take your wish.]

Taken by surprise, his mouth said before he really could think.

"Infinite mana..." Her eyes widened. As soon as he finished speaking, his hand went to his mouth regretting. What kind of ridiculous desire was that? As if something like this could be done...

[Desire received.]

[Skill seeking...]

[Skill found.]

[You wanted a Rank-SSS ability. A divine ability.]

[This is a skill available to only 7 users at a time.]

[You are the second human to have this ability and the sixth user in the entire Multiverse.]

[Congratulations! You have been given the rank-SSS ability: Mana Soul.]

[Ancient Scroll, Wish and Fate was used.]

[You can not use any more scrolls with the ability: Wish and Fate.]

[You are no longer affected by the ability, Wish and Fate.]

[The ability, Mana Regeneration, has become useless. Would you like to erase it from your skills window?]

Liam agreed automatically.

He did not even blink. He stood there, standing like a statue attracting the attention of many awakened.

"Look, it looks like there's someone else who's gone crazy."

"These guys should die soon."

Ignoring what they were saying about him, Liam took a deep breath trying to calm his racing heart, but it was hard.

How could he calm down when he received a Rank-SSS ability? This could only be a dream. It had to be a dream.

"Oh..." he moaned, stroking his left arm where he nipped.

Taking a deep breath once more, he opened the skill panel.

.....

Skills - (9/10): [Blessing of the Gods - Rank-S (Temporary)] | [Time Stopping (Active - Rank-E)] | [Slash (Active) - Rank-F] | [Haste (Active) - Rank-G] | [Fireball (Rank)] | [Sword Mastery (Passive) - Rank-G] | [Shadow of Darkness (Active) - Rank-F] | [Recovery (Passive) - Rank-G] | [Mana Soul (Passive) - Rank-SSS]

.....

Then he clicked on the most recent ability.

.....

Mana Soul (Passive): the ability to generate unlimited Mana.

Rank: SSS

Effect: Infinite Mana and Mental Power

.....

"It's here. It's definitely real. All right, let's see... Status..."

.....

Name: Liam Mason

Level: 43 | EXP: 0.8%

Class: Awakened

Title: [Demon Hunter] | [Brave Warrior]

HP: 560 | MP: Infinity

Vitality: 56

Strength: 85

Dexterity: 92

Mental Power: Infinity

Magic Power: 23

Attributes Points: 55

Skill Points: 80

.....

Liam almost had a heart attack. Was that your dream come true?

"I-I... I think I just became OP..."

It took about an hour for Liam to calm down. After all, he's still a 16-year-old. Being able to gain power would always surprise, especially today's youngsters in which heroes have invaded the movie screens, animes have gained more recognition and little by little is invading the other countries.

Liam was no exception. With today's world, where earning money for daily bread is getting harder, gaining power would be a blessing. Even more something overpower.

"HAHA HA!!! I'm the king of the world!" He shouted, opening his arms.

The awakened ones quickly moved away from the madman.

Realizing the shame he was paying, Liam had the decency to blush and swallow laughter. With her head down, he moved away.

...

Finding another quieter place, he sat down and checked the skill books.

The 2 skill books he earned from Rank-G's Chests were repeated skills. Ice Wave and Fireball.

He then verified the ability of the Rank-E Chest.

.....

Sword's Dance (Passive): Be a god when attacking with swords.

Rank: E (0/200)

Effect: has a 10% chance to cause a second consecutive attack without any cost

Restriction: only sword attacks

.....

Even with a free slot, he would not learn this ability. Despite wearing a katana, Liam always found the wizards more interesting. Now, with his newest infinite mana ability, he was determined to have a powerful ability to learn as soon as Blessing of the Gods was fully used, not that he was looking forward to it.

"Now, it's time to take full advantage of this ability... Hihihi..." he chuckled, taking out the Ancient Scroll with the inventory multiplication spell next to a Soul Core.

.....

Ancient Scroll: multiplication spell.

Canticle: "My greed can not be contained. My desire can not be denied. My words can not be ignored. With the old power, everything was settled. The laws of physics are meaningless. Multiply everything without being contained."

Effect: An item will be multiplied by 2 successively while the user has Mana.

Cost: 500 MP 2x for each multiplication

Uses: 1

.....

Liam put the Core on the ground before him, opened the parchment and read:

"My greed can not be contained. My desire can not be denied. My words can not be ignored. With the old power, everything was settled. The laws of physics are meaningless. Multiply everything without being contained."

A 2-meter magic circle came around the Core and shone magically. At one point there was only 1 Core, the next moment there were 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64... 2.048... 65.536... 1.048.576

Surprisingly, even with the absurd amount of Core, within circle there were only 64 Core. Apparently, the magic circle could withstand an infinite number, but without actually demonstrating.

Liam continued. After all, he did not know if he would get this parchment a second time and besides, he could use to exchange with others awakened by something of his interest.

He decided to stop after getting a ridiculous number of Core.

[Congratulations! You received 81.129.638.414.606.681.695.789.005.144.064 Soul Core.]

They were all stored within Genex. Without thinking twice, he opened the skills panel and updated all of his skills to Rank-A.
