Dante pushed all that aside for now. He glanced at Slessor and Humphrey to see that there was an expression of unwillingness and deep greed on their faces. Clearly, they too had not had enough and wished they could spend an entire year in the Black Land. Dante felt the same way, but he understood his boundaries. Anyway, he also had other things to do now and he had spent enough time here as it is. He wasn't really in a rush to do anything per se, as there was no world ending threat or superior…-

Dante was speechless. That was as good as not saying anything. He rubbed his forehead with tiredness and glanced at the other closed rooms where Humphrey and Slessor were probably absorbing as much Zero Energy as they could to empower themselves and increase the Rank of their superpower. Dante also checked the time with his AI and saw that it had been only an hour since he entered here, which meant that he had been absorbing the energy himself for around that amount of time. …

After Dante was done with the advanced training, he felt the difference much stronger now. His SDI had not increased by a single point, but it felt like his ability had increased comprehensively by more than ten times its previous value. It was simply the difference between giving a gun to a toddler and giving the same gun to a marksman soldier. The power was the same, but the skill and usage of this power was far different. Dante thanked the elder and left the training world today with a…

The training was tiring, but it was always worth it to see the direct results of your hard work and suffering directly. Dante spent the entire next 2 weeks going through the full basics of Breathing, Posture, Balance, Reaction, and Traversal with the Elder. By the time he was done and had fully mastered what he was to learn, Dante felt like a completely new person. It was as if the old him was a clumsy toddler waddling like a penguin while the current him was a sports-enthusiastic young teen…

With that in mind, Dante eventually returned to his estate with his entourage. Whether it was officially or even realistically, he had come out today only to shop. This is what it seemed like in the eyes of the Human Council, the various forces on Etonia and all others who were monitoring him. Dante had no plans to capture any whatever rebel faction. That was an excuse to run over here and justify consuming government resources to both protect his life and catch a breath. His true goal was always…

Nuclear weapon… such a thing sounded too good to be true. Dante initially had some speculations, but the actual result terrified him. This weapon was one that had three mode, single fire, rapid fire and launcher. Each individual bullet was not different from the size of the kinetic weapons bullet. In fact, the exact measurement was not different from the standard 5.56 which was small enough to fit inside a standard magazine. However, the internal of these bullets did not have gunpowder. The…

Well, it was one thing if Dante spent a few days resting and then came out in full force to throw his weight about. Many factions were either devising contingency plans, counterattacking plans, or even appeasement plans in the case of such a thing. However, none of them could have predicted that an entire week would pass, and this guy did absolutely fuck all! He was holed up in that obnoxious segregated estate 24/7 and their spies told them that he had done nothing but eat and sleep since he…

A name like that told a very dark story. As Beatrice had once boasted about, she was a genius of the Elite Batch of the Eternal Academy. While she might not have had superpowers, she made up for it with her sheer compatibility with genetic treatments and enhancements in general. In other words, she was the stereotypical heavenly physique not seen in 10,000 years. If she underwent a gene treatment that would increase a person's SDI by 10 points at best, hers would have a ten times effect at the…

Dante activated his superpower once more and chose to return to the real world. His body separated from the one in the quantum realm while his mind remained intact in the sense that he remained logged in despite his body being sent back to reality. He also lost that feeling of tangibility and he could definitely notice the difference between having his mind in a virtual space compared to using his body. This was actually somewhat good because unlike normal residents of this universe who felt like…

BANG! The men holding the bag were blasted away in shock, screaming in pain as Dante landed on his knee and rose to his feet. He looked around to see that he was within some sort of dark tunnel passageway, and the men who had been carrying him were nothing but a bunch of hooligans. Rather than run, these men simply cursed and swore as they sat on the ground in defeat. "Fuck! How could we be unlucky today? Just at the final stretch too!" One of the men with a rat-like face spat to the…
