Earth's Alpha Prime

By the time the <INVERSE> mode cooldown ended, Akor and Jay reached the other end of the Aquatic trial zone and found the System barrier that separates the third and fourth trial zones.

Once they reached the water surface, Storm Eagle MJ and Dante were already waiting there.

Using the skill <Water Walk> that Jay recently learned from Atlans, he stood on top of the water surface along with Akor.

Back when Jay had MJ record the demonstrations of Atlans creating Skill Circuits of various aquatic skills, he didn't laze around and learned some of them.

Since Jay had a <Water Innate Talent>, he was able to learn the water-type skills. If not, it wouldn't be possible to create or learn any aquatic skill by themselves.

Back then, Jay only had a Grade-3 <Water Innate Talent>, so he could only learn a little more than half of them and left out the complex ones that needed more precise manipulation of water element.

Now that Jay has a Grade-5 <Water Innate Talent>, creating or learning new water-type skills would be easier. However, he didn't bother with them and decided to deal with them later.

Storm Eagle MJ, who was floating a few meters above the water surface with Dante on top of it, closed in on Jay and hovered beside him.

Akor turned apprehensive at the sight of Storm Eagle MJ, whose presence was more potent than any monster he ever came across. But watching Jay pet its head, Akor let out a breather.

He then thought to himself with reverence, 'Amazing! Liege could even tame a monster, and that too such a powerful one at that. '

Jay read his thoughts and said, "This isn't exactly a tamed monster but a monster corpse that was integrated by MJ. As to who MJ is….why don't I introduce him to you."

In the next second, Baby MJ in a little Santa costume popped on top of Jay's shoulder and rubbed his cheek against Jay's face with affection.

After caressing MJ's little head, Jay introduced MJ to Akor, "This little guy is MJ. He will be instructing you on what to do as I will be busy with making gateways in the system barriers for the next two days, and that there is Dante, my fellow Alpha Chosen from Earth's Trial Zone."

Jay then pointed at Akor, "This here is Akor, an Alpha Chosen from this trial zone. He will be joining our trial zone expedition.

You guys stick together with Storm Eagle MJ and slowly follow me; I will be heading first to make gateways for another three trail zones in the next 30 mins."

After that, without delaying anymore, Jay activated <INVERSE> mode while activating <Size Alteration> at the same time to stay in my usual size.

Enveloping his fist with Origin Energy, Jay punched the System barrier with just enough power so that only a small portion of the barrier would break without creating a deafening sound that could attract hordes of monsters.

Dealing with a horde of monsters was not an issue for Jay, but he has to use the 25-minute duration that he has in <INVERSE> mode to enter as many trial zones as possible.

Soon, Jay left towards the other end of the fourth trial zone after creating his own rule barrier in the gap that he created.

Watching Jay break the System barrier so easily with strange silver energy caused Akor to revere him even more and appreciated his own decision to follow Jay.

After Jay's figure disappeared in the horizon, Baby MJ's amicable smile took a 180-degree turn and stared daggers at Akor while having his hands folded in front of his chest.

"Hmph! Aren't you the Blue Fishie that dared to imprison my Master?"

Akor didn't know what to say when he heard MJ calling him 'Blue Fishie'. He then let out an awkward smile and said, "Little Mister MJ, forgive my past insolence. I will be in your care from now on."

Baby MJ rubbed his hands and smirked, "Don't you think that I will let your previous actions slide. However, since Master made me in charge of you for the next two days, you will be running errands for me. Like plucking out Spirit Crystals from monster carcasses and helping Earth Wyrm with mining Spirit Metal ore. Do you have any problems with my instructions? "

Akor's mouth twitched at MJ's words. Akor wanted to retort that he didn't want to be an errand boy, but he could only swallow his words when he felt the Storm Eagle MJ's intimidating gaze.

He then realised that the monster in front of him was as strong as Jay when he wasn't using the Silver Energy.

It wasn't wrong since Storm Eagle MJ has the same overall stats as Jay with 840 Stats, meaning that it was also stronger than a Tier-3 High-Phase monster.

Akor then gulped and let out a few dry coughs before saying, "Of course, of course, I wouldn't mind being Little Mister MJ's Errand boy."

Baby MJ had a satisfied smile on his face, "At least you know what's good for you. Also, call me 'Great Venerable' from now on."

Dante sensed where the conversation was going.

So, before MJ could start the neverending made-up story, Dante intervened and greeted Akor, "It's good to meet you, Akor. As the oldest member of our Party, I welcome you. "

Akor greeted back, "I am pleased to meet you, Sir Dante."

Dante waved both his hands while saying, "You don't have to use honorifics like Sir and just call me by my name."

However, Dante could only let out a helpless sigh when he heard Akor's following words.

"I wouldn't dare disrespect my Liege's companion."

After that, Dante signalled Akor while sitting on top of Storm Eagle MJ, "Come on, hop over here, let's chat on our way."

Akor did as Dante asked and climbed over Storm Eagle MJ and Storm Eagle MJ took off in the direction Jay went.

*****

Time passed since then, and it was already the end of Day-8, with just half an hour left before the Alpha Chosen will be teleported to their respective planets for the Day-8 rest period.

Meanwhile, Jay entered the 30th Trial Zone and still didn't find the Arch Spirit Fruit.

Even though Jay couldn't find what he was looking for, he gained a lot from the Trial Zones he had been through.

Whether it be Spirit Crystals or Spiritual Fruits, or Spirit Metal Ores, now he had tons of them.

When Jay first began to enter other trial zones, he instructed MJ's corpse integrated monsters to hunt down every monster in those trial zones, along with the Tier-3 Mid-Phase and High-Phase ones that were restricted with domes.

As MJ's corpse integrated monsters were basically monsters, they weren't teleported to Earth along with Jay.

Since the time in Trial World flows four times faster than the rest of the galaxy, the 18 hour rest period on Earth was the same as 72 hours in there.

By the end of Day-8, 20 trial zones were thoroughly combed through by Hobgoblin MJ, Venomous Scorpion MJ, Shadow Leopard MJ, Earth Wyrm MJ and Storm Eagle MJ without leaving a single monster alive in them.

The Alpha Chosen in those 20 trial zones were bewildered when they couldn't find monsters anymore. But after seeing the carcasses spread around, they weren't able to imagine who did all that.

However, the Alpha Chosen from a few trial zones witnessed MJ's monsters massacring monsters. Initially, they were scared of their wits, but after noticing that they weren't harming the Alpha Chosen, a few approached and thanked MJ's monsters, only to be ignored by them.

Since the gathered Spirit Crystals, Spiritual Fruits and Spirit Metal Ore in each trial zone were too much to transport them all to the Earth's trial zone in a short amount of time; Jay had them stored in a Tier-3 High-Phase monster's dome in each trial zone.

As those domes would be there till Day-21, all that was stored in them would be safe for a while. With Jay being the only one who could enter those system restricted domes, they would be safe.

Within the 30th Trial Zone, Jay, Dante and Akor sat under the shadow of a huge tree and were eating the roasted meat of a Tier-3 Low-Phase monster, Lightning Tiger.

Even though Jay had packed foods in the storage space of <Limiter Ring>, he ate the monster's meat as it improves the body recovery process and also aids in nourishing one's body and maintaining tip-top condition.

Akor took a bite at a slice of the roasted meat and praised Dante, "Sir Dante, your cooking skills never cease to amaze me. The seasonings you add to them bring an 'out of the world' taste. I should introduce your cooking recipes to my planet; we lack any outstanding delicacies."

Dante ruffled the back of his head, "You praise me too much. Even though I was a professional cook, my cooking skills are lacking compared to the truly talented chefs on Earth."

Akor and Dante continued to chat while Jay finished having his portion of the Lightning Tiger's meat and resumed training Qew's Innate Talent Mastery.

The Achievement Title <Training Maniac-III> isn't for nothing since he trains most of the time.

Twenty minutes later, the <Minor Convergence Mastery> reached Lv.30, which ended up awakening Qew's third Innate Exclusive Skill.

[Congratulations! You have awakened 3rd Innate Exclusive Skill of <INFINITE CONVERGENCE>, <Innate Talent Convergence>.]

[<Innate Talent Convergence>: Let the user converge two Innate Talents into a more powerful Innate Talent of the higher grade among the two.

(As long as the grade of the Innate Talent is below Grade-10, it can be converged.)

No. of uses per 24 hours: 1]

To Jay, it came as a surprise that Qew's Innate Talent could even converge one's Innate Talent.

However, there were restrictions to it. Unlike Qew's first and second innate exclusive skills, which could converge Skills and Spirit Items to a higher grade, the third one could not improve the grade of the final result.

Jay didn't hurry to try it right away and waited for Day-8 to end and use it during the Day-8 rest period.
