Chapter 175: Flying to Bellvia V

[I was going to take a three-day vacation, but I don't know the penalties I'll receive from webnovel doing such a thing. So if this chapter felt like it's filler and rushed, that's cause it is. I'm writing this on 28 straight hours of no sleep and will certainly be crashing after stressing my brian so hard. I was hoping to use three days to catch up on sleep. I missed these last 2 months. I've been writing premium. I know people will complain that this should have gone in the author's note or something, but I need the word space filled to make this fill faster. I don't expect anyone to understand that. So let's get into this rushed chapter.]

We fly through the clouds and enjoy the freedom of flight. I quickly dive down and launch back up. "We should only be an hour out from Bellvia! We have been traveling the majority of the day, and the marker on my map is getting closer and closer!" I speak loudly so Sally can hear me over the loud wind. We fly in silence, and I think about what will happen once we reach Bellvia. Since we don't have to worry about alarms going off once I get close, it'll make getting in easy. They are likely scanning faces and inspecting anyone that comes through city gates looking for me. They won't find me anywhere near one of those outposts. I close my eyes and sink myself in the serenity of this entire situation. I take this time to look at my player stats and all my quests in Bellvia.

[Quest: The False One]

[Description: You have found the truth about Bellvia and their involvement with the Dryads, and you have found out about the curse and who made it. You will have a choice to make. Only one of the following objectives can be completed.]

I see that I have 90 unused skill points that I can invest into something that'll come in handy. Just depends out what it is. Speed seems like my most likely option since it leads to faster attacks and higher DPS. The other choices are Strength and Endurance, obviously. Balancing those out will always be smart. Dexterity and focus are the ladder choices of the group, and they both have their uses. A higher mana count means a higher ceiling for potential. I take the 90 unused skill points and invest them into dexterity. In the end, it allows me to wield my weapon more efficiently. I look at the new stat panel and see the changed values.

Everything looks in order, and that's when I remember that I want to check the information on my active skills again. I pull up information on my strongest ones.

[Divine Pressure Exertion]

[Description: A skill that allows you to oppress and possibly kill people with your mana control and power. The quality of a mana aura makes it stronger or weaker, and as you can see, you have Divine Pressure Exertion. The higher your control over your mana aura, the more powerful this will become. At the current level of 5%, you can kill anyone with a lower level and weaker mana aura than you. It wouldn't be this strong if not for the quality of your mana aura.]

[Divinity Pulse (Bloodline)]

[Description: Another skill directly tied to your mana aura control. Divinity Pulse is an exclusive skill provided by your direct line to The Almighty Father.]

[Effect: Channel your divine power into an outward explosion. Instantly kill all hostile enemies within a 400-kilometer range. All enemies that are at least 2 tiers higher can resist.]

[Cost: 140,000,000,000 Mana]

[Raging Machine - Active]

[Description: Nothing will stop you from winning. All outgoing attacks are increased by 500%, and all incoming attacks are turned into health for 10 minutes. It cant be upgraded.]

[170,000 mana required]

[Cooldown 48 hours]

These skills, along with my oldest ones when I unlocked this class, make my damage output in the 10's of millions. I pull up information on my sword and refresh my memory on what is know about it.

[The Witness]

[Description: A legendary sword that has been around since before recorded history, all the greatest and most influential people have wielded this blade. Empires have risen and fallen to, and for, this blade. It has been held by kings, queens, emperors, and empresses. Along with Sword Saints of unparalleled power and recognition. The Witness is the strongest and most powerful of the one-handed swords on Gaia. There is no blade better to wield. The construction of The Witness isn't one know to all. Only a select few know its origins. It was crafted by the same divine metal as Durandal, Excalibur, and Caliburn. These 4 swords were made by the angelic smith Erelim. They are considered siblings since they were made from the same metal ore.]

[More information will be revealed once you tier up.]

[Quality: Legendary]

[Unique properties]

[Has a very high chance to dismember limbs instantly]

[Has a very high chance to cause Curse of Decomposition]

[Description: Areas attacked by Curse of Decomposition will rot away till they are cured or the target dies.]

[Will always cause critical hit upon vital points struck]

[Will always ignore armor and defense ratings]

[This sword will gain more power every time you tier up.]

[There is no required level to wield this blade.]

[The Witness resonates with your angelic blood. +10000 focus]

The power in this blade truly is mind-boggling. Add this to any attack within two tiers of my tier, and nothing can stand against me. We continue flying and eventually see the walls and massive buildings sticking out the side of a mountain. "That Bellvia up ahead! You can smell the aqueducts from here!" Many cities have aqueducts, but Bellvia is the first I've seen that has them visible. Some are empowered by magic and other means. Magical cities use only magic to annihilate waste—a remarkable way to control pollution.

I bring us down into the forest about a mile out and land us. Sally gets off, and I stretch my body a bit. "We are getting a meal first, right? I'm starving, and you said the first thing we would do is get a meal." Sally looks at me with the same hungry for food look I have had most of this journey. I nod my head, and she wiggles in excitement—time to get into Bellvia. We walk through the forest slowly as the sun creeps to a setting. I smile as the orange hue ignites the sky. 

{Again apologies, I won't be writing off 28 hours of no sleep again. I hope many will tolerate this one time, I'm only human after all.]
