Ranking System



"The main cast has arrived."

Greg muttered as we saw a new group appear. Another ten hours had passed, and it was almost time for the fissure to open.

This group was even grander than the Lance family. They had a thousand men come over, surprising most of the people.

"I didn't think a Nova would come."

"Nova?"

Gramps and Joanne gave me an annoyed expression when I was clueless about them. What I do know about them is that they were formidable. Even Agnus would be unable to beat their best in a fight.

"The title Nova is a title only given to those who complete the ten main gods challenge. I heard that fewer than ten had completed them."

"Ten main gods?"

I knew I lacked much information, but I didn't think I lacked this much. Greg and Joanne explained them to me.

"Did you live under a rock? Everyone knows of them."

"Charles. The ten main gods are said to be the ones who support the system. Most of the system includes their title."

"The angel's right. First, we have the god of wisdom, which ranks your intellect. If you have noticed, most gods are part of this system. Some gods, such as the God of Order, won't be noticeable. You get the point, right? These gods are part of the system, so being given a title by them is almost never done."

No wonder I felt the man could slap Agnus in the face and get away from it. Seeing a person called "Nova," I can't help but wonder what a person of his caliber could do.

I would assume the strongest person in the group would be called "Nova." The titled person was a middle-aged man who had an intimidating aura. He didn't have a scary face. Instead, it looked relatively normal.

They brought in about the same amount of people from the Lance family, and I couldn't help but be amazed by the difference in overall strength. Even the Lance family could see this difference.

"Hey, brat. I know you're a monster, but don't get any ideas about him. I don't want to make an enemy out of a Nova. Not only are they strong, but their influence is something everyone wants to get involved in."

"The old pervert is right. You need to focus on your objective."

The two of them treated me like a kid without self-control. I wasn't stupid enough to mess with someone who could kill me. Agnus had a way, so a person stronger than him should also have the same.

"You two treat me like I'm an idiot. I don't mess with anyone who could kill me. I only mess with people that deserve to be messed with."

"I wonder which parents raised you up like this."

That's messed up. I gave Gramps a jab on his sides, which caused him to feel immense pain.

"What was that for?"

"Your previous words pissed me off."

"What? Do you love your parents or something?"

This time, I went harder. I kicked him in the face, which would usually kill someone in my world.

"Fuck! I thought I was going to die!"

"Then die!"

I don't think I have gotten over people mentioning my parents. No one dared to say those words to my face. While I was furious, I wouldn't allow the old man to die. His injuries had recovered instantly.

"Shit... Did you have shitty parents or something?"

"..."

There was nothing to say when I had already expressed my feelings. Joanne gave me a look of pity while Greg apologized in his own way.

While I already had some fame due to my earlier escapades, this one had gained me more attention from the Lance family and the Nova. Other families had appeared, but I couldn't be bothered to remember them all.

It wasn't until six hours later that the area we were in on Destiny Road changed. Everyone knew what was about to happen.

"Joanne! Old man, hold on to me!"

The best way to enter together was to hold onto one another. I don't know if the old man would travel with us, but it was better to be prepared just in case.

"Look, it's the fissure."

A crack in space had already opened, and it was sucking in everything near it. Some had already lost their limbs, while the unlucky had already been killed.

To enter the unknown, we have to enter the crack. The fissure was the most dangerous place, yet it was everyone's objective.

"Brat! I plan to enter alone! It's time for me to go."

After saying those words to me, he ran into the space crack and entered. I didn't have to worry about Greg's safety; I had already made him partially immortal.

The Nova and Lance families weren't too worried about the damages done by the crack. They stood still, waiting for something to happen.

"Charles. What should we do?"

Joanne had given me full leadership. I wasn't sure what was on her mind, but since Greg had already jumped in, it was time for us to do the same.

"Wait!!!"

Without giving Joanne any time to react, we jumped into the fissure. Fuck! I could see why people would go crazy entering the fissure. Once inside, anyone would have a seizure upon looking at the sight.

Images have started to appear randomly and plague our minds. My abilities can't nullify them, as they weren't anything negative. They were just images that appeared in a quick session. I don't think our minds could comprehend anything happening.

Luckily, it was only the mental damage that had affected us. The space that was tearing our bodies apart was rendered useless as my ability was in effect.

"Joanne... Are you okay..?"

We had gotten out of the fissure, and I started to puke. Joanne was frozen, hugging me like a bear. She had passed out unconsciously while holding me. From the looks of it, I need to wake her up now.
