Reign nodded his head before getting up from the ground. Laura was close to finishing her evolution as well, and he was planning on waiting for her.

Reign glanced at his new status screen before he felt the immense power contained in his body.

Right now, his stats were double what they were, which just showed the immense chasm that exists between each Tier. He could only imagine how powerful the two demons who were Tier VII each were compared to the current him who was only Tier V right now.

'Truly, the difference between each tier just gets larger and larger later on.'

'I wonder just how immense the stats of a Tier X being are, there is a reason why they are rare and why it's easy for them to become Transcendents.' Reign said with a sigh.

'It's not only an issue of talent and time that is needed to reach that realm, the higher one goes, the more difficult the enemies become as well when I reached Tier I, there were still beings who were of higher level than me, but of a lower tier, right now, there are no beings who would even attempt to skip the evolution and continue leveling up as the immense difference between tiers makes such beings nothing more than weaklings who would never amount to anything.'

Reign shook his head before he looked up.

That was when Reign noticed something weird.

There was sunlight.

The sun was shining down on him.

Reign was shocked to find that the ceiling of the underground area was gone, completely decimated while the ground was pitch-black as well.

The walls were cracked and the entire underground area was in ruins.

Looking at the entrance, he could see Basred and a couple of other Tier IV combatants who were looking at him with expressions of relief.

Reign's figure flashed as he appeared in front of them in an instant.

"What the hell happened, was this because of our evolution?"

Basred merely nodded at Reign before he sighed.

"It was more than what the underground area could handle, luckily for us, nobody was nearby when your auras flared up and mana exploded upwards, we immediately came down to see if you needed help, but after we saw those two, we didn't dare come close," Basred said as he glanced at the demon, as well as the angel that was slowly dissipating.

"I'm actually surprised the entire area isn't destroyed, mana suddenly surged upwards, destroying anything and everything in its path, but such a powerful explosion of mana that came from the evolution would usually explode all around."

"They probably helped with that and steered it up in order to minimize damage." Basred's voice turned low at the end as Reign nodded at his words.

"They're protection from the system, since we managed to finish the mission with flying colors, it decided to summon two avatars of Saints to keep us safe during the evolution process."

"Avatars of Saints, that explains why we were all frozen in fear upon arriving here," Basred said as he nodded his head before they all glanced at Laura who seemed to have finished her evolution as well.

They all turned away as after an evolution, a person would be devoid of any clothes, and even though with the great power of a Tier V, they would be able to get their clothes back in an instant from the inventory, there would still be a split second when people could see Laura naked, which none did out of respect for her.

"How long have we taken?"

"About 14 hours, we have already finished all preparations for the funeral, we are about to start now."

Reign simply nodded to Basred before glancing at the notification from the system.

[ The player has successfully finished the challenge, the player can return back to Earth at any moment, the longest the player can stay on the current planet is 5 more days. ]

'Five days, that's actually longer than I expected, that should give us enough time to take over a couple of regions, improving the strength of the world and giving the people here more spots for Tier V beings.'

"Laura, the funeral is about to start."

"Let's go," Laura said from behind as she walked over to Reign and the others who nodded at her.

She was also surprised to find the current state of the underground area, but in hindsight, her and Reign's evolution was completely out of the ordinary, especially Reign who was a Nephilim, not a human being.

His powers were tremendous, and it was only natural that his evolution would be very violent.

They all walked out of the underground area before making their way to a nearby hill, which was where they were going to bury Siggurd and the others.

Even though all regions had their graveyards, it was customary to bury the deceased in the region for which they fought before their deaths. Out of the ten regions that humans still controlled on the planet, there were many people from other regions who were buried in the other regions after they had come to help them and died in the process.

It was partly to pay respects to the deceased, and partly for the people to remember how close the entirety of the human race was, they all leaned on each other for support, and in these difficult times when their planet was overrun by demons, they were the only things they had left.

Siggurd, Alistair, and the others who died during their expedition to take the artifact were all buried with the highest honors possible. The funeral was a solemn affair, attended by the survivors of the mission and the other inhabitants of the region. It was a time for everyone to come together, mourn the loss of their comrades, and pay their respects to those who had given their lives to protect their world.

Reign stood by the graves of Siggurd, Alistair, and the others, a heavy sense of responsibility weighing on his shoulders. He knew that their deaths were not in vain, as they had succeeded in retrieving the artifact and preventing it from falling into the hands of the demons. Still, the loss of their comrades was a painful reminder of the ongoing battle for their world's survival.

As the ceremony continued, Reign couldn't help but think about the revelations he had received during his evolution. The knowledge that the civilization that had created the system was also responsible for the creation of Jared, the advanced AI that had become his ally, raised countless questions in his mind.

He wondered about the true nature of the system, its origins, and its ultimate goals. Did it have a hidden agenda, and was it truly a neutral entity as it claimed to be? The mysteries surrounding the system and its creators only deepened his curiosity.

After the funeral, Reign gathered with the surviving members of the mission to discuss their next steps. They had five more days on this planet before they could return to Earth, and they needed to make the most of that time.

"Five days, that's actually more than what we expected, I'm sure we can make use of that time to take plenty of territory back from the demons," Basred said as Reign nodded.

He was not only a Tier V being right now, but he also still had his transformation, which would almost double his stats, allowing him to fight against peak Tier V beings, and even go up against Tier VI beings for a very short period of time.

Right now, on this planet, Reign was no longer afraid of any demon. With many of the Tier V demons dead now, the many regions close to them only had Tier IV demons and below to protect them, which meant that taking them over would not pose a problem for them.

"We depart immediately, I have already notified the other region leaders of what happened, they will be attacking as well."
