361 Chapter 361: Not here

His eyes let out a golden flash and he began muttering some strange words which in turn created countless golden runes that twirled around him. This was the first time he was using his word path after he absorbed the life inheritance.

Unknown to them, even though their aura were subdued intentionally, the continent couldn't handle the power of this level. If it were only one demigod, the continent would have been devastated but three was just too much.

Cyrus was about to release his spell when Samael appeared right in front of him. He quickly turned his attention to Derik only to see Demos standing right in front of him. Looking past their guardian spirits Derik and Cyrus noticed the orc overseer was surrounded by other numerous demigod-level beings as well, but their aura signature was quite different so Derik and Cyrus could tell these people were also invaders.

"You can fight whoever you wish��� but not here…" Samael said with an odd smile on his face.

Just like Samael, Demos was also all smiles. This made Cyrus and Derik begin to wonder if these demigods finally got a girlfriend or something. They just couldn't understand why these two were so happy and cheerful today. Of course, this was simply because they were unaware of what transpired in the heavenly realm between Samael and the creator.

"Why? We finally have a chance to kill our enemy but you choose to stop us?" Cyrus was not really annoyed, he was just a bit confused.

"Yea… I know this place can't withstand our power but that's why we were planning to drag the orc overseer into my realm…" Derik explained.

Hearing them speak, Demos and Samael shot each other a glance. From their expression, it showed they were shocked by the fact that Derik and Cyrus were oblivious of the damage they were causing to the continent just by standing there and doing nothing. If Cyrus was given the chance to unleash whatever technique he was planning to use, the continent would have split apart from the pressure.

"Well… they can't be blamed for this… when fighting such a foe like an orc overseer, they can't afford to be distracted…. That's why they didn't notice" Demos said and Samael nodded in agreement.

"Take a look around and see understand what we are trying to tell you here" Samael said prompting Derik and Cyrus to turn around and look at the world around them.

At this point, they realized the world beneath their feet was trembling and countless mountain ranges have been destroyed just by their existence. The earth has split and even a thunderstorm was brewing above their heads. The skies had turned black and the clouds had been dyed red by the blood of hundreds of thousands of orcs spilled on this land.

"If we could do this just by existing… how much more damage can we do by casting a single technique?" Derik was shocked.

With that said, Derik and Cyrus reverted to their normal human-sized form as well as the orc overseer and every other demigod present. They could only guess the other demigods present were the various overseers of the other races. The invaders were not necessarily evil in Derik's opinion. All they wanted was a share of the god veins resources but to get that they would have to kill the new god candidates and settle down officially. For that reason, they couldn't have anyone destroying this world over pointless battles. That's why all of them stepped in to stop the overseer from continuing the fight.

If he wished to do so, these Demigods will not hesitate to execute him at the spot.

"Don't go about thinking you are are still humans… as for being mortal, you all have become immortals a long time ago due to the nature of your abilities… while Derik became a living version of the undead with the immortal body, Cyrus had so much abundant life force that he could even raise the dead… and all this was before you even acquired the inheritance you have now… The only difference between both of you and us is that you are yet to reach the demigod realm but that difference is gone now…" Demos explained.

Hearing this Derik and Cyrus could understand his train of thought but the last part about what he said still left them with so many questions.

"What do you mean by the difference is gone now?" Cyrus asked.

At first, Samael and Demos thought Cyrus was messing with them but seeing the genuine confusion in his expression, they couldn't help but believe that Derik and Cyrus were too focused on their fight to notice the changes going on in their body. Even the demigods of the other races were staring at them now with renewed fear in their eyes, especially the orc overseer, Naar.

"You two have taken a step into the demigod realm… Your body is still undergoing some changes but it's not yet complete… I suggest you use the time you have left here in the world of mortals to set things right… Because once the breakthrough is complete… You will be forced to leave the realm of mortals for good" Demos said, causing Derik and Cyrus to tremble slightly.

A breakthrough?

When and How?

All these two could remember was facing off against the humans, the orc chieftains, and the overseer. What have they done to warrant this sudden change? How did the breakthrough happen so fast?

Derik and Cyrus couldn't understand why this happened so soon. Normally they would be happy that something like this happened but it was quite different in this case. They just returned to the continent, how can they just leave like that? And this time their departure will be permanent.
