The Rise Of Calamity

Chapter 161 - Fragmented Epiphany

The blood-stained soil and the swords protruding the ground as if they were gravestones for every soldier that had fallen in this great battle rumbled under her glamorous purple-hued aura. Such power was not something even an astral being of the highest stage could imagine. It was a power that would make galaxies upon galaxies bow under her feet with a single glance.

This was the power of someone who had reached the peak of existence in their galaxy cluster. This was the power of someone who had reached the Blackhole hole cultivation stages...

This was the power of a Celestial Realm being!

Watching the man who was slowly descending from the skies freeze and release a bloodthirsty aura at her words, a smile curled up her lips while a literally world-shaking celestial aura left her body. It crumbled the grounds and turned everything within a 3000-mile radius into ashes. However, a second later, the same aura that was about to go berserk was sucked into her body before creating a purple amorphous skin of armor around her just a few inches thick.

"THOU SHALL HAVE THE RIGHT TO LIVE TAKEN AWAY FOR TRIGGERING THE WRATH OF A GOD!" A golden electric aura exploded around him the same way it did around the little girl, eventually reaching a 2500 mile radius before being retracted within the body once again, leaving nothing but a golden glow and occasional crackles.

While one might think these crackles were simple or maybe even harmless, occasionally, the crackled of lighting would shoot towards the ground leaving large figures and bottomless ravines in their quake.

After seeing that the muscular white-haired man clothed with white long pieces of fabric who glowed with a golden aura finally get ready, the little girl took a single step forwards.

In a single step, she turned into a purple beam of light that left nothing but pure chaos in its quake, and in the end, destroyed everything that wasn't already destroyed from both of the titan's auras.

The scene eventually turned dark, the final scene being something too drastic for the feeble human mind to comprehend.

*Gasp*

I opened my eyes to find myself back in my bedroom panting breathlessly. I could only remember fragments of the memory, however, seeing how they controlled their energy from the very small fragments I had gotten and memorized, I immediately had an epiphany.

I remembered how the little girl controlled the power that exuded out of her body before turning into armor around her, while the white-haired old man injected electricity within his body, almost making it a part of him.

I rewatched every second of every fragment, and without even realizing it, my control over Arcane magic and lightning magic grew by several levels. While before my control and efficiency over lighting magic could have been considered to be at the peak of the Wizard rank due to me not having enough mana or a high enough mana heart, after the epiphany, my progress exploded allowing my control over lightning magic to reach the Sage stage when combined with arcane magic to increase its flexibility and efficiency.

On the other hand, my arcane magic control had reached a whole new stage as well while I had also learned a magic technique that I could probably use in the future when I can release my magical aura instead of forcing it out of my body with even more mana being used through arcane magic. However, overall my control had gone from being in the basic to intermediate stages of me barely being able to form tentacles to now being around the peak Grand Wizard stage where I can expertly weave spells intertwined with arcane magic, while also being able to create intricately designed weapons or objects.

This meant I wouldn't have a headache every time I used my pure mana like last time! Woo! This was a time for celebration!

Of course though, like the absolute idiot I was, I had not realized any of this and thought I had only gained small amounts of inside on both subjects. First off, what kind of person would believe watching a fragmented minute clip of two extremely powerful beings' power-up would give me such a huge incite on the topics. Clearly, I might have been as stupid as analysis said, after all, I completely underestimated my comprehending ability.

"If you are done looking into thin air, I have a mission for you to do" An annoyed voice came from my left, making me instantaneously look towards it with a raised brow.

'Was she here this whole time?' I couldn't help but ask inwardly

"A Mission?" I tilted my head back and looked her in the eyes.

"Yep. This time it is a B rank mission"

My eyes immediately lit up.

When was the last time I had heard such good news?

When was the last time I had felt this elated!?

FINALLY! The heavens seemed to have finally realized my dream of becoming a powerful mercenary! Thank you!

"Don't get all excited hahaha!" She laughed but I could not suppress my excitement.

I imagined all the money flowing in before my imagination of all the food that I could buy with all that money appeared in my mind.

*Drip*

I had started salivating!

"I have to send someone with you so-"

*Crack*

I could almost hear my dreams and goals being shattered.

Another person? Didn't this mean I had to share my money? MY MONEY!? NO! NO ONE CAN HAVE MY MONEY! WHAT IS THE POINT OF DOING A B RANK MISSION IF ALL MY MONEY IS TAKEN BY SOME OTHER ASSHOLE!

[Calm down and actually listen dumbass]

"I will be sending one person with you and her name is June. She is also part of our Guild and you two will be working closely on important missions in the future. She is an A-rank mercenary at the 2nd Tier of the Gold Ascension stage. The reason I chose someone with such high power and ranking is that this mission has a chance of becoming an A-rank mission or even higher." Her face became complicated making me understand something

"What is the mission?" I asked with a worried expression.

"Regional Guildmaster of the Pheonix guild, Regional Guildmaster of the Thunder Dragons guild plus a few other people have recently gone missing. Your mission is to investigate this occurrence before coming back immediately...."
