Chapter 160 - 160-Current Skills Of Persia

"What should we do about the Reincarnator, Master?" An Inquisitor asked with a calm voice. Thinking about the Reincarnator, Persia wondered what she would do to her. Could Persia dissect her for more information? But what was the use of dissection when she could simply see through her without any problems? Well, they still had time, so after dealing with the Ungrateful Daemon Beasts. She would probably begin interrogating Regina once again.

"About the Reincarnator, her problem should be the next one I'll face after the Ungrateful Daemon Beast. Before that, I would have to test my strength and eat the Ungrateful Ones." Persia answered with a serene voice. The Inquisitor nodded in understanding as the Inquisitors around them did the same. 

Looking at the Inquisitors, Persia remembered something important. It was the Tournament of the Inquisitors. The Prize was still undecided, but it seems that the Inquisitors were working hard to win. With them focused on winning, it was clear that they already had a Prize in their mind. Though, Persia does wonder what kind of Prize her Inquisitors wanted.

'When should I start the tournament? It has been delayed for far too long. Not only that, my Inquisitors are quite excited about the tournament. I shouldn't delay it further as it was my promise to them.' With such thoughts in mind, Persia looked at the Inquisitors and spoke with a calm voice. 

"I would like to talk about the tournament for the Inquisitors. We will start the tournament after the Great War. We will invite the Nations of the Great Forest to this tournament and make it an international one. The Prize is still the same. Nothing will change other than more challenges for my Inquisitors." 

Persia smiled while speaking her thoughts about the tournament. It will start after the Great War, and she would make the Great Rulers of the Great Forest make their subordinates join the tournament. Thinking about the future, Persia couldn't help but get excited. After all, she would probably see talents outside her force as well.

Her words echoed in the throne room. The Auras of the Inquisitors ran wildly after hearing the words of their Master. Seeing the Aura within the throne room getting heavy, Persia gazed upon the Inquisitors and thought that they were nervous about the challenges on the way in the tournament. 

Never did Persia know that the Inquisitors were thinking about ways to crush the enemies that would dare to take the prize. Since outsiders could join the tournament, the Inquisitors needed to get stronger and stronger until no one in the Great Forest could match them. After all, the prize of the tournament was a gift from the heavens. 

A Dinner with their Master.

Why? One would look at a Dinner as nothing special. But Food and Dinner were the starts of every relationship. It can lead to many paths, and one of such paths was a steamy night. Subconsciously, the Inquisitors had such word in mind. Even if the steamy night didn't happen, they wouldn't let other Inquisitors have it. 

The Inquisitors were greedy as their master. Well, that was something to expect. Anyway, the Inquisitors calmed themselves. After calming themselves, they started thinking about their future paths. What path would make them stronger, faster, and better than before? Finding such a path might be hard, but it was worth it for the prize.

"All of you have fiery determination on your faces. It seems that you're getting serious. Train yourselves and don't lose. After all, you might not know what would happen if you lost. You won't get your Prize, and someone other than you might gain it instead." Persia clenched her fist as the Inquisitors stood up and saluted. 

"WE WILL MAKE MASTER PROUD AND TAKE THE PRIZE FOR OURSELVES!!!" 

The Inquisitors loudly shouted as Persia smirked upon seeing their Pride and Greed. The Emotionless Inquisitors were showing passion for the future tournament. Since in the tournament, they weren't soldiers but warriors instead. They don't plan on losing, and they won't let anyone win. For the sake of the Prize, whether they gained it or lost it was dependent on their ability. 

'Damn, looking at their expressions. I can't help but get proud of them.'

Persia thought while looking at the Inquisitors. She was proud of her Inquisitors, and she wanted them to win. The war cries of the Inquisitors sounded within the throne room of the Fortress Bastion. The Passion of Azathoth echoed, and the Desire of the Inquisition lit up like thunder in the night sky. 

"Train yourselves, Tonight. A feast will start." Persia said as the Inquisitors nodded and exited the throne room. After the Inquisitors left, the silence once again enveloped the throne room. Ego silently stood right beside Persia. Persia looked at Ego and asked.

"Let's go to a Gym Chamber. I want to test my skills. After all, their limits have been lifted. But due to that, there is a possibility that my mastery over them disappeared." Persia said as Ego nodded. Hearing the words of her Sister, Ego understood that the System must have done something to her skills. 

"Understood, Sister. I will assist you in mastering your skills." 

Ego answered and lightly bowed. Persia smiled and activated Gate. A Silver Gate slowly appeared in front of Persia. As the Silver Gate formed itself, Ego and Persia entered the Gate and arrived at the Gym Chamber. It was the place where one would test their skills. 

Standing in the Gym Chamber, Persia started looking around while Ego disappeared and reappeared at the edges of the Gym Chamber. Ego nodded towards Persia as she was ready to observe her Sister. Seeing Ego's nod, Persia nodded back and calmed herself. Mastering her skills once again would be problematic, but it was still a problem solved through time. 

"We'll start with Thermal Control."

Persia said as she activated Thermal Control. As she activated Thermal Control, she began looking and saw nothing. Was the activation a failure? Persia expected a very high temperature to hit the Gym Chamber. Upon the thought, everything around her warmed up despite having no flames. 

The Gym Chamber began melting, Persia couldn't understand the instant change of Temperature, and the High Temperature was too annoying. It would be better if it was a great cold rather than a great heat. Upon the thought once again, everything around her changed, and the Gym Chamber froze. 

'The Thermal Control is harder to control than expected. I need to concentrate and think about how much heat or cold something needs. I could accidentally melt something or freeze something if I don't control it.' Persia thought to herself as she controlled the temperature and turned it back into normal. 

As the temperature went back to normal, the Gym Chamber went back to its original temperature. Though, unfortunately, the damages brought from the extreme heat and extreme cold deteriorated the Gym Chamber. Everything around Persia started crumbling as the walls, roof, and floor couldn't help on any longer. 

"Everything is crumbling. I guess this is the effect of instantly changing extreme temperatures." Persia mumbled as she activated her Dominion Authority. In an instant, the crumbling Gym Chamber got restored to its original form. After the restoration, Persia deactivated the Origin Skill and started looking at the next skills in line. 

"The Next one is Invisibility." After saying the skill, Persia disappeared from sight. Ego, who stood from afar, looked at the spot where Persia stood and found nothing. But if she had used her detection skills. Persia's heat source and distortion in the space could still get detected.

Persia, on the other hand, had understood that other detection abilities could detect her without any problems, but she wanted to test the limits of Invisibility. 'The state of Nonexistent.' Persia thought as she slowly made the intensity of the Invisibility stronger. And with that, a wave of Aura sprung up within the Fortress Bastion. 

Hundreds of Auras sprung up and enveloped the Fortress Bastion in an instant. But why would hundreds of Auras suddenly appear? Well, Ego knew the answer. After activating invisibility, it seems that Persia took it further. It went too far that it actually made every trace of Persia invisible.

With the disappearance of Persia's presence, energy, and everything that got considered as her. The Fortress Bastion, The Inquisition, and the Nation of Azathoth were under a state of emergency. Her disappearance didn't simply stop on the nation. It spread across the Great Forest and felt like a Giant Part of the World disappeared. 

The Alarms echoed as the Inquisitors began running towards the throne room. The Forces in the Great Forest, including the Great Rulers, instantly teleported atop the Heavens of the Fortress Bastion. Not only that, the North, South, West, and East Continental Region of the Realm of Piksyon felt the disappearance of strong power. 

Ego looked at the spot where Persia stood and couldn't sense her Sister. She couldn't help but feel the dread and fear of the disappearance of her Sister. Even though she knew that it was the effect of Invisibility. Her mind was slowly making the disappearance as real. Ego sighed as she feared for the future where her Sister would actually disappear. 

"Sister, deactivate the ability." Ego said with her emotionless voice though it had a tinge of sorrow. It took time, but Persia suddenly reappeared on the spot where she had stood. Ego sighed in relief as the presence of Persia was felt once again in the Fortress Bastion. Persia, on the other hand, didn't notice the effect of her disappearance. She looked at Ego and found an expression she never thought she would see. 

"E-Ego, why are you crying?"
