Chapter 70: Evolved Eyes Of Oblivion
"Meet in building 01... Meet in building 01... Meet in building 01... Meet in building 01."
The mechanical voices kept echoing throughout the academy, causing dozens of rows of students to run from place to place looking for the so-called building number 01.
Fortunately, they found it relatively quickly, everyone went there immediately, including Theos, Alice, and Luna.
Yes, Luna.
"How have you been?" the blackhead asked with a cute smile.
"Luna, we talked every day by phone calls, even by video calls, as if that wasn't enough, we talked before I left for the academy," he replied.
Luna felt quite uncomfortable and embarrassed, she couldn't find a conversation with Theos, all because of... The knife over her throat.
Although surprising, this knife over her throat is more of a literal expression than a metaphor because of Alice's face and eyes, which contain a great deal of murderous intent.
"Uh... Hi, Alice," she greeted, first trying to smooth things over with her.
"Hi," he replied dryly.
"Ehhh... What's new with me?"
"Nothing, just that a black cat wants to steal my husband," Alice said venomously.
Luna sighed, giving up on ever regaining the young but strong friendship they had at their first meeting.
Certainly, Alice was one of the few girls she talked to and considered a friend, but now Alice seemed to consider her mortal enemy, her nemesis and archenemy.
'They should work it out on their own,' Theos concluded quietly. 'If Alice isn't hurting her it means she doesn't hate her at all, so they're sure to get along in the future, though not for now, I can't force their friendship.'
Theos hadn't even introduced Luna to her as his 'second girlfriend', but women's instincts are truly great.
As they say out there, if the woman sees the girl you are cheating on her with, they will know right away that it's her just by instinct... It has happened to many people.
It's like her superpower...
"We're almost there," Theos started to break the tension.
The two stood looking at the big building in front of them, if the previous one was already big, this one could be said to be twice, or even three times as big.
And it also has a more futuristic and elegant touch, the whole building made of glass and platinum.
All the students were coming in like ants to their burrows, so the three of them came in as well.
[The secondary character, Professor William, has fallen into depression... 3000 negative energy].
[You have ruined a relationship, as some of his future friends and sponsors, but now fallen into depression, Professor William was erased from the plot... 10000 negative energy].
The system notifications were music to the ears of a smiling Theos, but what he didn't expect was the following announcement.
[Attention]
[Attention]
[The host has obtained over 100K negative mana, evolving one of those skills and obtaining another].
"Hey," Theos couldn't help but express his confusion out loud.
[The System has evolved the Eye of Oblivion and you have obtained a new skill: Emperor's Aura]
"!!!" Theos was startled, stopping his steps to grab his left eye tightly.
"What's wrong? Are you okay?"
"Wait... Wait, I'll call someone."
The two women forgot their differences for a while as they watched Theos suffer, they had known him well enough to know that ordinary pain would not make him writhe like that.
It should be an unimaginable pain.
And so it was, a pain that Theos could only describe as unbearable. But to gain power, that's what he's willing to achieve.
Theos' left eye shone like a glow, forming a kind of six-petaled flower in the pupil of the eye, like a mark.
"Agh," Theos fell to his knees.
Alice and Luna were even more frightened, the latter ran out inside building 01 to call for help.
"Stop!", Theos shouted.
Luna stopped in her tracks, not because she wanted to, but rather because she couldn't move, she simply couldn't.
She wanted to be stubborn and go get help for the one she loved, but a single command from him made her not move a single muscle, barely breathing.
[Emperor's Aura: people, even nobles will perceive you as an Emperor, if you use enough mana in your words you can perform an order impossible to break for weak people or people who believe in you, even for stronger people, but physically weak and if you use a large amount of mana to perform the order... For many you will be a superior being by nature, like a god].
[Eye of Oblivion LvL 2: You will be able to make people forget memories for a longer time, about a whole day, but in all this time you will spend mana, so it is necessary to use it with moderation... As an extra, your charisma is slightly increased].
Listening to all the information told by the system, Theos could only smile, but also cry as he saw how ... his charisma increased again!
'At this rate, it is no longer rare for me to be called Male God, my beauty must be compared to those of the gods,' he thought.
He didn't want to be more handsome, but if the world wanted to do it, he wasn't against it, he would just have to pay the consequences.
"Are you okay?" asked Alicea, watching as Theos stood up again.
"Yes, thank you for your concern, I just suddenly felt like the eye was about to explode," he affirmed.
Hearing how her beloved was fine, Alice sighed in relief, but turning her attention to Luna, she was confused.
"What's wrong with Luna, why didn't she move?".
Hearing Alice's question, Theos began to panic. 'I inadvertently added Mana to my words because of the intense pain from the modification of my eye, so it affected my Emperor's aura... I think I do it again...'
At this thought, he again began to concentrate Mana in his voice. "Luna, move again." -exclusive
Instantly, Luna fell to her knees, totally terrified. "I couldn't move, my body wouldn't obey me..." she repeated.
Theos patted her head, stroking her hair. "Relax, I'll make it up to you... How about we go on another kill date again?"
Theos' request had an immediate effect on Luna, who put aside her fear and everything else to jump for joy and exclaim:
"Yes!!!"
