Chapter 120: I See

"Forgive me if I speak out of turn, but though I can sense that you have made a bit of improvement since we last saw, I don't believe you are ready to engage in a battle of this magnitude.

"Naomi is in the third order and though there were other factors to it, I did clash with you and get a draw."

"For all our battles, even when I was at my most intense I at best used 70 % of my strength. My desire to possess the artefact you used to subdue the battlefield left me never seeking to end you, well that is until Lena but even then I was full of rage."

"My lord you are powerful, but a lot of your potential is buried and yet to be brought out.

My lord, when matters concerning champions are brought into a board game, the entire table is flipped and every player gives up.

My lord I will be honest with you, against a third-order being who is a disciple of a champion, I fear that might only be able to eke out a draw, not to talk of you.

And then there is also her companion, a person of the church light, I might not be able to help you in your battle."

"These are strong words that have seen the heads of many servants roll. I can understand fearing the champion of light, but why do you fear a disciple this much."

"I don't fear them, my lord, I just acknowledge their strength and most important of all their resources.

Their resources are what makes all these people scary and powerful. Sёarch* The Novelƒire(.)ne*t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

The church had existed for thousands of years, and in those years, they have accumulated a wealth of resources, treasures that would make even the demon dukes of the underworld green with envy and a major reason for that is God's Trial ground"

Rehabab went silent after saying this, watching as Blake's expression became contemplative, the man in deep thought and then he spoke.

"I've never heard of the god's trial ground, but I have heard of the sun god's trial which happens every 50 years, it accepts every Individual in the continent, even those that don't serve the sun god.

Are they the same?"

"Though it's quite audacious for it to be called such, we should be talking about the same thing is that is the only occasion on which all the talent in the continent are gathered.

There are strict stringent requirements for entering these trial grounds and though at the beginning when this trial was created everyone in it had a fair chance at getting their hands on resources, with time the main churches got a massive advantage in the god's trial and it is thanks to these champions.

With their incredible blessings, these champions easily went past obstacles that would hold down other rankers for hours, going for the best and numerous resources and bringing them back to the church which used these resources to train stronger individuals for the next trial run and like this a cycle which saw the churches growing infinitely stronger was born."

"I see," Blake said and then turned and started walking away, waving Rehabab to follow him.

"Where are we going" The infernal demon carefully asked as he followed.

"We've got two possible beauties to capture Rehabab we can't afford to be late"

Rehabab faltered a bit in his steps when he heard what Blake said, shaking his head a few times as he followed the shorter demon accepting that his worries had been promptly ignored but then his face scrunched up.

"You want us to capture them"

"Well capturing them will be the best, but if they prove troublesome, kill them."

Rehabab nodded his head to this, and when Blake walked out from the hard floor of the cliff back into the forest and began speeding, he followed after.

Like this the pair of a lord and servant, ran through a forest in the Polaris region for three straight hours, their figures only pausing when they reached a rocky plain.

After spending close to an hour going past the rocky plain, the duo came upon a wide river.

Blake had been ready to swim through the river, but then he stopped and turned to stare at Rehabab, the man whose very existence represented fire.

Understanding the question Blake was asking, Rehabab walked till he stood at the end of the river and then he stomped his right leg on the floor.

First, there was a tremble and then before Blake's eyes, earth rose from underneath the river creating a dam with a smooth top that they could both walk over.

"You can use Earth techniques," Blake casually commented as he took the dry path.

"It was my field before I comprehended the commandments of larva."

"Commandments?"

"Yes, for whatever comprehension you decide to engage in, what you hope to understand are the commandments."

"Are you saying there are commandments for whatever aspect one wishes to comprehend?"

"Yes, my lord have you never seen a commandment tablet."

"No, I haven't," Blake said and through Rehabab's eyes narrowed at this, he explained.

"A commandment tablet is generally a mythical slab that has the commandments of an aspect written on it."

"So one just has to read the commandments and then understand them," Blake asked.

"No…" Rehabab wanted to explain more but Blake waved his hand.

"This is an important conversation, we'll talk about it more some other time, but I have one question."

"Yes"

"Is there a commandment slab for blood"

"No, unlike we infernal demons that can stick to our larva till the end of the lines, blood demons branch out and comprehend other aspects."

"I see"

Though he appeared calm, within him Blake could not help but be dispirited as he remembered Lena's faint and Vague reply when he had asked her about his divine blood.

"Something that can be used to comprehend blood"

At this moment Blake felt a little regret at losing Lena, but the feeling didn't last long as he got over it and in no time, he and Rehabab were over the river and running forward.

For his clash with Naomi, Blake had considered having it happen within a town that the woman was sure to pass on her way to Paldin city, wanting to use the lives there as a way to restrict her battle prowess but he had in the end decided against that.

At the moment, the church and the powers of the country not to mention the champion of light possessed a true threat to Blake and he didn't want to get careless and announce himself to the world.

At least not now when he was honestly being estimated to be significantly weaker than a mere third-order being.

Running for about 20 minutes more, Blake and Rehabab arrived at their destination, a jagged terrain filled with dry sand and stones.

"We'll wait for them here."
