Chapter 56 : Fishy situation
"Now let me ask you, does it make sense to you that something created by a god for the sake of easing her boredom be able to grant a power that can potentially transform a mortal to a god ?"
Hearing Lilia's question, Alex didn't know what to say or how to respond. Everything she just said made perfect sense; the logic was sound, and even he himself started to feel that something fishy was going on.
When the system told him that something was blocking the enhancement the first time he tried, he was feeling so low that when it offered him a solution, he didn't really think it over and just accepted right away. However, now that he was reflecting on it, it seemed extremely exaggerated that he had obtained a body that, in Lilia's words, was of divine rank.
That was another thing that was occupying his mind: divine body? Divine talent? He had never heard of such things before. Of course, he knew that the body and talent were graded in relation to each other.
For example, his previous body and talent grades were both 1, which meant that he would struggle greatly to reach level 2, assuming he ever reached it.
What surprised him the most was the 'divine' grade. He had never heard of such a thing before.
Meanwhile, Lilia, recognizing that his mind was undoubtedly in turmoil, remained silent for a while, allowing him to absorb the information she had just shared.
After she observed that Alex seemed to have calmed down, she continued by saying, "Now, as for the fact that you can copy the abilities of your women, that's even more exaggerated as It would imply that if you have enough soul points, and your women possess a wide range of different abilities that you can copy, you could potentially wield as many abilities as you want. This is quite unusual, since everyone has a limit on the number of abilities they can have. However, the way things are going, I'm sure you won't have a limit, which doesn't make any sense."
Lilia took a deep breath before continuing, "To conclude, regarding the fact that you can help me regain my former strength, you need to understand that, currently, due to the technique I used, I have no trace of mana left in my body. Even ordinary people who aren't even at level 1 possess some mana in their bodies, which shows the extent to which this technique has affected me. So when you mention that, with the help of your artifact, you can heal me, I find it hard to accept, especially since the Lust artifact should have no business having healing properties."
Seeing that the system had no intention to reply to him, Alex refocused on Lilia that seemed deep in thought and said
"I don't know what is going on, but since we have no lead in the matter we should just forget about it for now, there is no reason to-"
"As a matter of fact, I have a clue, well, more like a guess"
Alex raised an eyebrow in surprise and replied," I'm all ears, let's hear what my genius of a wife thinks is the cause of all of this".
Lilia was slightly annoyed by his tone, but she kept her composure while thinking wickedly, 'You'll see what I think when I wipe the floor with your ass', externally however she had a gentle smile as she replied to Alex:
"Firstly, unlike you, I don't believe there's foul play. It would be dumb for the goddess of lust to stab in the back the one meant to represent her In the sin's game".
*Cough*Cough*
"I never thought of something like that"
"Yeah right" replied sarcastically, Lilia before continuing.
"What I think however is that if you are able to do all of that, it's because of your ability"Alll latest novels at novelhall.com
