Chapter 164: Chapter 164 Easy Victory.

Leon, who noticed a change, turned his gaze to the hilt of the broken sword in his hands, and he saw the item glow in a warm gold color, which made his eyes open wide in shock.

"What happened?".

Then, the rings from his right index finger began to emit a glow as it responded to the light. From thin air emerged a silver metal that gleamed with a solid and merciless silver color. Its razor-sharp edge still retained its ferocity on both sides, even though it was only leaving a piece of the middle of the blade from a complete longsword.

"This? What!".

The body of the blade floated itself before it placed itself upon the broken pieces of the hilt. Like a miracle, the blade-separated pieces began to meet each other before they merged with the help of the mana in nature and the source of holy light that came from the sun.

The guardian who watched the event unfold peered his eyes intently at Leon, but strangely, he didn't make any move, which was creepy from Soma's perspective.

Soma turned his gaze toward Leon's side

as he faintly saw a symbol that appeared from his back right palm that held the swords. The symbol of a sun with a fiery circle and a dot in the middle of it. A gift from the leader of the four cardinal God, Michael.

It represents justice and light that will guide humanity to its glory when facing a great disaster that will come in the future.

However, Soma, who saw that happening, breathed a sigh of relief and was slightly annoyed about the situation.

First, he is relieved that he is not the one being chosen. The second thing is, if Leon was the one who would get selected, or probably one of the reasons for being chosen was being recognized by the sword? But the point is, then, why does the Creator God advise his other four Gods to do this insensible trial involving an unrelated person?

[Remaining times 3 seconds]

"Crap?!".

Seeing the translucent window before his eyes, Soma leaped back, distancing himself from the guardian before taking a transparent vial filled with blue liquid. Swiftly, he opened the lid before chugging the content inside.

[Advance Mana potion consumed]

[Restored the user Mana]

[Mana fully recovered]

"Fuu…".

After seeing the notification of his Mana recovered. Soma tensed all the muscles around his body, preparing for what was coming. His body started to convulse, and a jolt of excruciating pain began to invade his nerves, creating an intense agony that made his whole body scream.

[Extra Skill Adapt activated]

[Nullifying the pain…10% …40%]

One of the skills Soma had started to act fast as the pain that gnawed at his body subsided at a rapid pace. His throbbing heart regained its clarity, and his bulging veins began to disappear from his skin.

[Nullifying the pain 99%] Sёarᴄh the NôᴠelFirё.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

This time, Soma had thought that if the skill was still in his control. He tried to command it to stop the nullifying process of reaching a hundred percent because it was so dangerous that he lost all of his senses except for his vision.

Soma uses his finger wrapped by the gauntlets to pinch his tight. It's a bit faint, but he could feel a slight pang of pain within it.

"I see. So it was like that".

A faint whisper that traveled in this silent place attracted Soma's gaze to turn toward Leon who stood up while raising his uncomplete sword.

Leon cast his gaze straight toward the guardian, who stood there unmoving, looking at his provoking gaze with calm eyes. Leon swung his sword vertically, making the light that shrouded the sword dim.

Within this silent place. Gradually, the guardian body vanished from its place, and then a golden line was formed before it split open, transforming into a gate with gentle warmth.

[The savior has been selected]

[The trial is over]

"What the fuck?!".

Soma silently cursed inside his heart as he saw the translucent window in front of his eye informing the trial of Heaven's Will was over. A bulging veins begin to appear on his forehead as his calmed heart begins to race, and his blood starts to boil because of this joke event that transpired because of the changing plot by the author. "Is it him?".

He clenched both his teeth and fist, making a cluster sound that he was even surprised he could do that.

""Soma!"".

However, a lovely melody that reverberated in this flat land and a scent of floral that assaulted his nose calmed the boiling rage that was accumulating in his heart. Soma saw two shadows that stood beside him, looking at his figure, who had a trace of blood in his mouth.

"...Are you okay?".

"What happened?".

Hina and Xiao Lian began to bend their knees and took a seat beside Soma naturally. Soma, who saw the two fine figures, breathed a sigh of relief as the aura from his body subsided.

"Hina, Please?!".

"...Okay, Leave it to me!".

"...?".

Hina nodded her head as she realized what happened to Soma. As for Xiao Lian, she tilted her head to the side before her body stiffened because Hina, who sat in seiza with a blossomed smile on her lips, lay down Soma's head on top of her tights.

"Is this fine?".

"...Well, if you have no problem with it".

"Ehehe, I don't mind it".

"So? I'll take you up on your offer then".

Xiao Lian, who saw their interaction,n felt a slight pang of pain in her heart as if a tiny thorn was pickling it. However, as she couldn't understand what happened to her current self, she shook her head and settled herself beside Soma while gazing at his figure.

Soma, who caught the meaning behind those gazes that were directed at him, sighed before he told the two of them.

"So, it was…".

***

An hour had passed, and Soma had already regained the freedom of his body. Standing straight, he began to stretch his muscles in case something happened when he was forced to use the Oni Wrath skill for the second time.

However, after discovering nothing serious was happening in his body, he began to turn his gaze to Hina and Xiao Lian, who were already standing beside him.

"Let's go home".

The two girls nodded as they were already aware of the identity of the splitting space with a golden color that stood in the flat land. The gate itself was crowded with the other students who were impatient, wanting to go home.

"Soma, are you okay?".

Leon, who saw the chaotic scene with a wry smile, approached Soma while also giving his best regards to the two girls beside Soma

"As you can see, I am alright. Thanks for worrying".

"I see, good then".

A silent understanding happened as Leon and Soma gazed toward the disappearing students, swallowed by the gate one by one. Then comes a moment when Lydia approaches the gate.

With teary red eyes, she cast her gaze toward Leon's side, kept bowing her head, saying her appreciation for making a way for her to come home.

"Then Soma, we will be first".

"See you later".

Eiji and Eri began to pass the gate as their bodies disappeared, which was the time for Leon. He turned his gaze to the surrounding place first before settling on Soma.

"Soma, I will make sure that you will be compensated for the item".

Leon's sincere gaze pierced straight right through Soma.

"Okay, I can't wait for it".

"...Good. Soma and ladies, I will be going first. See you later in the academy".

Soma watched Leon's figure gradually disappear, swallowed by the gate with a sigh.

"Let's go, Hina, Xiao Lian!".

Soma started to take his step into the gate, but the golden light that shone within it distorted, making Soma and the girls halt in their steps.

The three of them knit their brows as a sense of dread enveloped the entire place before the gate dissipated into thin air.
