Chapter 114 Officially Entering Earth



As Nefaria had mentioned before, what she thought of seemed blasphemous to her, and now that she said it out loud, it indeed was.

It was blasphemous because it would put the life of their husband in danger.

Well, somewhat.

He wouldn't die per se but to fix all the damages that might happen due to them wanting to topple the balance would take a really long time.

By long, it meant billions of years.

Most of the Goddesses understood what Nefaria had just said, but there were some who weren't the sharpest like Lumina.

Nefaria sighed and explained, "Simply put, we'll refrain from interfering and let everything happen on its own. In an even simpler way, think of it like a worker's strike in a service related company."

"Everything will be working, but with the worker's on a strike, if there are some faults, the customers cannot seek the service of the company and would need to resort to fixing things on their own."

"With us gone, the cosmos would become unmoderated and what would end up happening, that is something I do not know and neither can I predict. I think only husband, Scarlett sis and Melissa sis can predict this."

All the Goddesses turned to look at Scarlett.

Scarlett merely smiled and said, "The best way to predict things is by getting immersed in them. Aren't you lasses desperate to see husband? Let's go, get immersed into things quickly and see for ourselves."

Scarlett said and without giving the others time to prepare, snapped her fingers and made everyone disappear from Elysium, leaving it completely empty for the very first time.

.....

Alex's house, Austin.

While Alex was busy doing his things, right in front of his house, there appeared a total of fifteen ladies, some appearing mature while some young.

The only thing common between them was they were full of smiles and looked absolutely mesmerizing.

The leader of the group, a raven-haired crimson-eyed beautiful lady, stepped forward and rang the doorbell of the house.

She heard someone shout 'coming' from inside and then heard approaching footsteps.

A second later, the door opened and a good looking mature woman appeared in front of the lady.

Janet, having just opened the door, was shocked to see such a stunning woman in front of her.

However, she was even more shocked to see an entire group of such women currently standing in front of her house.

She was so shocked for a while that she forgot to even converse with the lady.

"Are you not going to invite us in?" Scarlett asked with a smile.

Janet woke up from her stupor after being asked that. She looked at the lady and asked, "I am sorry... who?"

She was wondering who these supermodels were.

Scarlett smiled. "Me? I am your daughter-in-law."

"What!?" Janet exclaimed, feeling completely flabbergasted.

Scarlett, with the same smile, said, "Let's go inside and talk further on this, mother. It's not good to stand at the door and talk after all, right?"

Janet didn't know what to say or do at this point and simply felt that the other person was saying the right thing.

"Right... please come in."

The ladies walked in with all smiles and just like that...

All of Alex's ladies were now officially on Earth.

They weren't playing by the rules anymore and seemed much happier.

Though, Josh and Janet were now in for a shock and the question as to would the two be alive by the time Alex returned or would they die of happiness still remained.

Meanwhile...

In the dungeon, while taking careful steps, Alex and Nix reached a place where they found half-dead monsters.

"Finally!" Alex exclaimed as he saw a heavily injured boar.

He didn't waste time and along with Nix, went ahead and killed it.

Once the boar was dead, Alex said, "I am going to consume its core, Nixie."

Nix nodded. "Be careful, there can be after effects."

Cores usually couldn't be consumed directly. They were consumed through pills or some other substances which had just a hint of the core and not everything.

What Alex was doing was risky as it could end up killing him. But, he had learnt of things in the manuals and knew that the cores were safe to eat.

Even the body of the boar was safe to eat as long as cooked properly.

Alex didn't waste time once again and consumed the core of the boar in one single go.

Right then, he heard the notification:

[Ding!]

[Consumed x1 core of an F ranked boar species.]

[Assimilating...]

Alex immediately felt some changes within his body. He asked Nix to guard him and sat down in a lotus position to see what the things happening within him were..

As soon as he entered a state of meditation, he found the core of the boar breaking down.

Small thin strands were leaking out of the core and they travelled through Alex's whole body, eventually stopping at a certain few muscle fibres.

The muscle fibres, as if hungry, began swallowing the strands and eventually, swelled slightly in size and then returned to normal.

However, things weren't over.

As Alex peered deeper within the muscle fibres, he found a certain few things come into existence.

It was hard to describe but something was getting uncoiled and pretty soon...

[Ding!]

[Host has unlocked a new gene!]

These new genes... Alex knew exactly what they were and smiled in satisfaction.

A few more notifications rang in his head regarding a similar thing and he was really happy by the result.

Basically, what had happened was that the genes of the boar had struck the relevant places in Alex's body and awakened the dormant and locked genes.

These genes were extremely similar to the boar's with only a little difference. Due to such high resemblance, they awakened right after getting a certain stimulus.

This proved everything Alex wanted to know.

All he had to do was to consume relevant things and he'd easily awaken the genes within his body, eventually becoming really strong.

As Alex opened his eyes and got, Nix could feel something different about her husband.

Alex smiled and to test his strength out, punched the boar.

The punch caused the entire bone of the boar to shatter, making Alex nodded in understanding.

Yup, everything was correct and everything was falling right into place.

"Nixie, I finally found my path." Alex said happily.

Nix raised an eyebrow in interest. "What did you find?"

Alex explained everything and at the end, punched another part of the boar, shattering it once again.

Nix was surprised, but smiling, said, "I am happy for you, darling."

She kissed his cheek after saying so.

Alex smiled and said, "It's a happy moment but sucks that we can't celebrate it properly. Anywho, let's go follow those guys again."

Nix nodded and the two once again left to trail the people.

On their way, they found a few more monsters and without a doubt, Alex killed them and awakened a few more genes.

The effectiveness of consuming the core was diminishing at an astonishing speed as he had one core after another.

This made Alex understand that this thing may be similar to alcohol tolerance.

The more one drank alcohol, the more difficult it would get for them to get drunk. This would mean that they either had to consume higher doses of the same drink or try something with a greater alcohol content.

In Alex's case, all the cores here belonged to F or G rank monsters. They weren't enough anymore and he needed to have better cores to awaken further.

In any case, Alex was now strong. As strong as a peak F class monster. He had enough power within him now to punch a steel wall and put a slight dent on it, without hurting his hand.

The two once again began going after the guys ahead and half an hour later, heard clashes.

Hiding on a tree, Alex and Nix had a look at what was going on.

"Fuck! Who would've thought that the boss of this floor was a damn spider!" A person shouted.

"How in the world is there a swarm of spiders!? How are we supposed to defend against them all?"

A wave of fist sized black spiders were closing in on the people and this made them slightly afraid to fight.

It was one thing to fight against one big spider queen, but an entire swarm? That was literal suicide.n-(OVelbIn

"Quick, find the queen! Find the queen and kill it!" Someone shouted.

"How does the queen look?"

"Anything but similar to these guys charging at us. Be quick, we don't have time!"

Taking out swords from the scabbard attached to their waists, the people began killing the spiders jumping at them. Their full focus now lay in finding the Queen.

Meanwhile, Nix patted her husband's shoulder and said with a smile, "Husband, do you wanna see something?"

"What is it?"

"Ta-da!" Nix opened her palm, revealing a small spider, making Alex widen his eyes.

"This..."

"This is the boss of this floor, hu hu."
