Philip's Origin - Limit Testing - First Pain

"Fuuu~~"

After Ariii's green eyes swirled and forming a crack, she closed her eyes and took a deep breath

"..."

She opened her eyes and saw Philip directly in front of her, a few hundred meters away. He's looking at her with indifferent yet scary and calm eyes

"..."

Ariii didn't speak and feign ignorance. Both her and Philip knows what's going on

"What did you see?"

Philip went straight to the point

"Nothing"

"Nothing?"

"Yes... It was dark and I couldn't see anything"

"Are you sure? Did you feel something?"

"I'm not sure..."

"..."

"I don't know if I even felt something"

"Hm... Nothing else?? Anything at all???"

"I don't think so"

"You're not lying, are you?"

"What do I gain by lying?"

"A secret... An unknown... Who knows? You might've discovered something far sinister than you can imagine in your life, worse than anything you've seen so far"

"Heh, do you think you have that kind of origin? Talk about overestimating yourself. Chuunibyou much?"

"...??"

Philip was dumbfounded from Ariii's attitude

"Are you sure you want to act like that?"

"Or what?!"

"Tell me now, did you see anything or not?!!"

"I've already told you... I saw nothing. If only you have some sort of Lie Detection ability or something"

"Hmph..."

Philip harrumphed and decided to move on from it

「 She's telling you the truth 」

'How'd you know?'

「 C'mon Philip... 」

Emily's tone of voice sounded like she's disappointed

'...?'

「 Her body language... 」

'Oh yeah, right!'

Philip smiled wryly and gazed towards Ariii once again

(Truth. Honesty. Fear. Perturbation. Discomfort)

'...'

Philip was confused. Ariii was telling the truth, but she's feeling fear and discomfort

"Are you alright??"

Philip asked in curiosity

"Yes..."

"Why are you fearful and uncomfortable?"

"Too much power surrounding me... I want to over power everything, but I shouldn't..."

"Well, you should... There's another reason why I pulled you into this world"

"What's that?"

"I'm increasing your limit"

"How? You have to be careful, I'll immediately slumber if I was pushed to the extreme"

"That's fine... Here"

Philip lifted his right hand and particles of white and black light, resembling blobs and two dimensional triangles, started to gather around his hand

"Do you see this?"

"Gwargghhkkk--"

Ariii's eyes immediately shattered and her body recoiled backwards, as if she's about to throw up and vomit. Her muscles were tingling and her wings straightened into sharp spikes

"W-what is that a-anyways???"

"A power that break causality and reality itself... It defies laws and rules that's been inputted in the universe... Rule Breaker"

"R-rule Breaker??"

"Can you over power it?"

"..."

Ariii lifted her arm with difficulty and aimed her hand at Philip's hand. She's trying to over power ⟨⟨ Rule Breaker ⟩⟩

"GAAAHHHKK--!"

Ariii shouted in pain as her arm exploded and revealed her muscles underneath. This is the first time that she experienced the most pain since she was born

"Ah... Ahh... Ahhh--"

She couldn't believe that over powering something would inflict indescribable pain on her, rather than just immediately putting her to sleep

"You can't?"

Philip asked indifferently

"N-nnn-noo..."

"It's fine... Heal yourself"

Ariii was holding her shattered arm with her other arm and look at Philip with questioning eyes. She was dumbfounded by his request since she doesn't have self regeneration capabilities unless she overpowers one

"Here..."

Philip flicked his finger a a single drop of blood landed on Ariii's arm

P: 『 The Only Blood That Can Cure And Heal 』

Green light shone around her body and into her shattered arm and it healed immediately like it wasn't destroyed before

"...!"

Ariii was amazed by the healing capabilities of a single drop of blood. She then realized the power of Pureblood that suddenly appeared next to Philip's head and began to revolve around him

"Can you over power that at least?"

"Y-yes... I can over power this as much"

"How did you over power it? How is it different and more powerful than mine?"

"I-I can bring anyone back to life if only a single strand of their hair or a single cell is left"

"Interesting... How about this?"

Philip waved his hand in front of him, as if he pointed or threw something towards the sky

Ariii widened her eyes and followed the trajectory of the invisible object

Suddenly, a giant sphere of darkness grew larger and larger that it almost encompassed half of the white world

"Can you over power the bottomless pit of my Well of Negative Emotions?"

The sphere became darker until it became void. The sphere became a supermassive black hole and this represented Philip's mixture and combination of negative emotions that he accumulated throughout his lifetime without ever releasing a single drop of it due to some circumstances such as depression and despair

"Wah---"

Ariii couldn't utter a single word when her eyes instantly shattered, more so than over powering ⟨⟨ Rule Breaker ⟩⟩

She subconsciously pulled her head backwards and her body recoiled upwards. She immediately lost consciousness and she went into hibernation and a long slumber

"Hm... Even this is too much for you... How did this do more damage than you over powering Rule Breaker or the Ancient Power??"

「 It's probably because the Ancient Power is being transferred through the Priestess, rather than directly from the Ancient Ones. If she would over power the Ancient Power directly from them, she would be put in eternal slumber or death itself 」

"Hm, what about Rule Breaker?"

「 What's more powerful than breaking a rule? 」

"Rule Manipulation?"

「 That's basically the same thing 」

"Rule Concept?"

「 Ariii can't over power a power to the Concept degree 」

"Really? That's valuable information then..."

Philip then gazed towards Ariii's slumbering body. He's not satisfied with their training yet in pushing and expanding her limits

"C'mon Ariii, our training is not yet over... You have a lot to over power"

He casually spoke knowing that Ariii might not hear him, but at the same time, she might hear him in her sleep

"Alright..."

Philip focused and became serious

"Wake up"

*SPURT*

"...!"

Ariii's body bursted starting from each of her fingertips towards her limbs and her torso until her head and wings. Dark red blood splattered and floated around her and she continued to slumber

"Huh?"

「 ... 」

『 ... 』

Philip was surprised and stunned. Ariii's body bursting like that meant that she subconsciously over powered something and the only power that she could've over powered other than the [Well of Negative Emotions] is the power from his voice

This made Philip suspicious

「 ... 」

『 ... 』

"What happened??"

Even still, he doesn't know the main cause and could only ask Emily and the system

「 I'm not too sure... Maybe it's a relapse from the Well of Negative Emotions? 」

"Hm, probably... Fine... Here you go"

Once again, Philip flicked his finger and a drop of blood landed on Ariii's body

P: 『 The Only Blood That Can Cure And Heal 』

Green light shone across her body and completely healed her back in full condition

"PUAAAH!!!"

Ariii let out a very deep breath to the point that she looks like her insides are coming out of her mouth

"BLERGGGHHH"

And that's what happened. Although, she vomitted putrid black liquid

It was painful for her to vomit since she hasn't eaten yet and her body had to release stress and pressure via vomiting

Philip didn't mind the vomit and ignored it completely. Though, his enhanced sense of smell caught a whiff of smell of the vomit and he couldn't help but release air from his nose to get rid of the traces of the smell

He shook his head and focused back on Ariii

"I-I-I d-don't think I can handle anymore of this! I admit you're very powerful! It couldn't even be compared to when I was fighting my brothers and sisters"

Philip approached Ariii and kneeled in front of her, ignoring the vomit

"..."

Ariii felt his presence and a hand dropped on her left shoulder

"Huh?"

Ariii lifted her head up and immediately locked eyes with Philip

"It's okay! You have to go through with this"

Philip had a smirk on his face and he's showing a thumbs up with his left hand

His eyes were glowing with his different colored eyes, but the violet color is more apparent with his sclera shining in violet. Golden outline on his pupil, red iris, and black sea of darkness

Eight Magic Eyes also sprouted behind his head like peacock feathers. They opened in unison and glared towards Ariii's eyes

『 Ultimate Title: Draconic Disastrous Hero 』

『 Ultimate Title: Hachimahome Vajrayaksa 』

"..."

Ariii wasn't able to speak or move as her eyes immediately shattered once again
