Chapter 633 Back (1)

After each of the Gods was given a 'Saintly' Runic Armament, Nial received the pieces of information he wanted and a mountain of resources.

The Gods had stockpiled enough Origin Crystal to spend years cultivating. Yet, instead of hoarding anything, they gave it all to Nial.

He was a little astonished about the mass of Origin crystals he had obtained but he thought that it was only fair if they were actually in the belief that he handed over Saint Runic Armaments.

A Saint Runicier's time was extremely valuable, and the same could be said about their runic armaments.

Nial retreated to a large meteorite where he sat down on the ground with Shadow slowly expanding to his original size. The Devil's body coiled around the entire meteorite once before Nial retrieved a big mountain of Origin crystals.

"I absorb everything and transfer the dark energy to you. Just tell me once you feel strong enough to teleport to the area the Gods marked for us!" Nial ordered, pointing at the marked point on the map he had manifested via a holographic screen. The holographic screen showed the map of the known Universe, and the mark lead to a Worldbridge. The Worldbrdige led to a place near the Origin.

Shadow hissed out loudly in understanding. With that in mind, they spend two days absorbing Mana, converting it to dark energy, and transferring the dark energy inside Shadow.

A quarter of the humongous number of Origin Crystals had been used up completely. This amount was, usually, more than enough for a God to cultivate for two months. Yet, Nial did not only spend merely two days to absorb that much Mana and convert it to dark energy, but he transferred it to Shadow, who would use it up completely with a single jump through space.

That was exactly what they did now. Shadow manifested a black portal that removed the color of the Universe. Nial, sitting on Shadow's back, pointed at the portal with a slim smile on his lips.

"Let's go, it's about time to return home!" He announced and Shadow shot through the portal.

In the following five days, Nial and Shadow spent most of the time searching for portals and other places to use.

They used the Worldbridge to lead them to the place close to the Origin. From that play, they used the spatial circle of another race. He paid with another scrap piece of metal, which everyone seemed to believe to be Saintly Runic Armaments.

Maybe they were, in fact, Saintly Runic Armaments, but Nial didn't see any value in them. He simply didn't care.

Nial was teleported to the Origin after he paid the transportation fee.

However, because he had literally no idea where he was on the Origin, he found a Worldbrdige on the Origin that lead him somewhere away from the Origin.

It was a Worldbridge that lead straight to the Golden City! Nial used this world bridge to find his way to the territory of the Elves, then he jumped to Yggdrasil, just to return to the Forest of Life, where he could teleport to the Orion Shelter, if he was not held back by the Royal Princess, Old Elf Crevian and a Greater Forest Dragon that had grown up to a size of more than a kilometer in length.

The Greater Forest Dragon was still not fully matured…but neither was Shadow.

"Shadow, play a bit with the Dragon. You can bump it around a little," Nial said when he visualized the vicious expression of the Greater Forest Dragon. He was aware of her dislike toward him. His dark energy made the Greater Forest Dragon uncomfortable.

Jumping through so many Worldbridges and other means of teleportation was quite annoying, but it was extremely fast as well. He was pretty sure that the trip, which took him merely a full week, would have required a decade or longer via a spaceship.

Nial felt that the biggest advantage of the known Universe was their dungeons, worldbridges, and other means of quick transportation.

It was simply too easy to travel through space in the known Universe. Of course, Nial would have it much easier in the future once Shadow grew up a little more.

But Nial was fine, for now. He was quite satisfied with his improvement in strength over the past six decades and he could clearly feel that his Devils were all fine. They were in the Orion Shelter, which Nial quickly found out in a discussion with the Royal Princess and Master Crevian.

"Where have you been for the last few decades, Nial?!" The Royal Princess asked in worry, confusion, and with a trace of interest.

"I would like to know that as well…and how you were able to advance to the Peak of the Mythician rank so quickly!" Old Elf Crevian added.

Nial smiled in response. He had a lot to explain but choose to keep it simple.

"I followed Bella Morningstar inside a spatial portal created by her Spectran companion and unleashed my raging dark energy. The Spectran, probably astonished, released its Divinity which resulted in the intervention of the Origin. Something went wrong and we landed in an isolated stellar system far away from anywhere else.

I killed Bella, cultivated, created a long-distance traveling device, used it, got to know some other races, traveled through space with a spaceship, cultivated more, found hieroglyphs which are probably from an older Universe, got to know that I had to cross the Meteorfield to leave the unknown Universe, found an adverse mutated Origin Leviathan youngling, devilized and raised it, and I cultivated and studied a bit more.

Found out that I was the Prince of the Lacardian Empyrean Void before some sort of Advocate of the Pryards destroyed it, taking my eyes in the process. Damian's Godly Fragment then bound to me and teleported me away. The rest is history," Nial summarized neatly while never stopping to smile.

However, the same couldn't be said about the Royal Princess and Old Elf Crevian.

They stared blankly at Nial, their jaw hitting the ground.

"What the hell?"
