This meant that he was stuck, no matter how much EXP he had he would never be able to breakthrough to rank 3. He thought that he had limitless growth potential but that was not exactly the case. It seems like the divine shard came with its limitations and conditions. He could not help but think that it was a deliberate design. Think about it, if someone else got this shard and wanted to simply farm EXP and rise in ranks infinitely they would have no insensitive to gather the rest of the shards. However,…-

Esdras returned back and comforted Celine, soon she went back to sleep and Esdras left the room. He climbed up one of the few towers that remained intact in the fortress. At that very high peak he felt a refreshing breeze blowing on him, bringing him a sense of peace. He had consumed three Origin points, two in the first divination and one in the second. This was a costly ability. Especially since Origin points were very hard to acquire, and he still didn't figure out a way to get many of them, except…

Hearing these words Esdras's expression was twisted in rage, he was shaking internally at being used by these evil bastards so easily. Celine was doing much better than expected, she was quick to suppress her fear of this monster. Perhaps it was because her mind was already occupied. "Y-you, can you save this man? If you do I don't care what you want from me, I will give anything in return." The twisted dark cloaked wraith laughed, "very well, a deal struck with my mistress is a deal that cannot be…

Three hundred years was three lifetimes, why would he need to worry about something like that? He would rather focus on getting Celine's true soul back. As for three hundred years later? Who knows if he was going to be a fossil then… Oh, wait, his brain must've short-circuited, or rather, he was just not used to fantasy world lifespans. Presuming that he would rise in ranks throughout the time it would not be unusual for him to be alive 300 years later. " I said 300 years later things will become…

But this could be used to get something he wanted, "okay, let's say for the sake of argument that it's true. You need me to do things towards that end right? Then you need to earn my trust, why don't we start with something simple? Tell me what happened that night and what's wrong with Celine." In fact this whole thing started because he thought this thing must've seen what happened that night while he was… dying. If so, then he could solve the mystery for him. "It's not that complicated she just sold…

"Who said that? Show yourself!" Esdras looked around and made sure with the spy eye but he still didn't find anyone around. "What's wrong?" Celine asked concernedly. "Didn't you hear that? Just now someone… " Esdras rubbed his eyes, even though his eyes had nothing to do with hearing. "She can't hear me, dumbass. I'm here, look inside. For fucks sake, I can't believe I have to deal with this level of walking heap of waste." Esdras looked around once again and narrowed his eyes. It was then that he…

Anyway, since he was in his shared room with Celine, he was in a private enough place. But just in case, he decided to use one of the Spy eyes to keep watch around the room and make sure that no one came here by accident. These were the same eyes of which he had many in his possession. But calling them Spy eyes is easier on the tongue, so he decided to call them that from now on. He he like those eyes very much, despite being a low level, magic item, they were extremely useful and practical. Just one…

Just like that, the confrontation ended in an anticlimax that left everyone even more confused than they were before. Esdras wasn't that bothered since he wasn't very interested in what the higher-ups had in mind. At least it was over now. And more importantly, he had other things to worry about. Esdras watched over Celine in her sleep as she took one breath after another. He wanted to give her a health potion but she looked fine as if there was nothing wrong with her. After helping the others, burying…

" she's … fine she's doing okay, she's just tired," David said, frowning. Esdras controlled himself and calmed down, " tell me what happened, and I mean everything." He should have known, that's right, how did he survive? He definitely should have died. It wasn't just a normal injury that could be restored even with an intermediate-level health potion. Several of his internal organs were completely destroyed. Even if he was on a scientifically advanced earth, he would have died right then. It was…

Darkness… All he could see was darkness for a long time Or was it a short amount of time? Maybe it was always like this, and maybe it just lasted for a brief moment. In that darkness, he saw several visions, brief flashes, and then something else would appear. He saw a man wearing a dark cloak of fur and a crow was on his shoulder, only the crow had a skull for a head. He saw a hand cover the sky and hold the moon. He saw himself looking slightly older in a lone black tower that was feared and…
