Reborn as God: The strongest system

Three hundred years was three lifetimes, why would he need to worry about something like that?

He would rather focus on getting Celine's true soul back. As for three hundred years later? Who knows if he was going to be a fossil then…

Oh, wait, his brain must've short-circuited, or rather, he was just not used to fantasy world lifespans. Presuming that he would rise in ranks throughout the time it would not be unusual for him to be alive 300 years later.

" I said 300 years later things will become messy I didn't say the Convergence will only start then. Some symptoms of it must have already started appearing in this world. For example, the appearance of dungeons. Later on the level of the world will start increasing."

"So, you're saying it's not just a single moment or an event that will suddenly spring up. What does the increase in delivery of the world mean? How old is the world change?" Esdras observed.

" it looks like you can still understand a little bit. They increase in the level of the world means many things, most importantly, that the rank cap will expand along with the level of the world. Meaning that the world will be able to sustain beings of rank 5 and 6 very soon. Higher beings like the one who took that girl's true soul."

This left him in deep thoughts, it was not a simple matter. He may have to deal with something extremely dangerous in the future.

Running away didn't sound like a bad idea. All he had to do is save Celine and get that divine shard before things get out of hand, only then could he really go another world without a worry.

" so what do I have to do? Should I look for a special place? Probably some important items or materials?" Esdras asked.

" yes, of course you have to gather some special materials but there is no need for a special place or anything like that. The most important thing is that you must cultivate a blood moon crystal for me. It needs around a hundred thousand sacrifices give or take."

" sacrifices? A hundred thousand what?" Esdras frowned.

"Humans of course, well any rank 2 creature will do, as long as you mark them with the special insignia that I will give you later. Actually, there is an easier method if you get of them all in a city or something, you can inscribe a formation underneath them and we can be done much faster."

" do you want me to kill that many? That's insane. And they all have to be rank 2? You're out of your mind I'm not some genocidal maniac. I'm human too."

Although Esdras did not think of himself as a saint, he was not a mindless murderer, either. It was inconceivable for him to kill that many people.

" why do you care so much? They're just mortals. And what do you mean that you're human?"

" that is a strange question. Do you not know what the human is?" Clear dealing with this monster was not going to be easy. It truly perceived humans as mortals.

" I know. I just want to know who told you that you're human. Because you're not human." There was now a gloating tone with that laugh.

" what do you mean? I am not human I have been born human, and I've always been a human." Esdras frowned.

" you can't be serious. You are not human. Is a goblin also a human just because it's a humanoid? You are not human. I don't know if you were born human or not, but that doesn't matter you are not a human as of now."

"What…" Esdras remembered in this moment that the system had classified him a little differently. What is this? They were too many questions.

" don't think too much about it. I don't want to pressure you. If you don't like my plan, then you're free to think of a plan on your own that doesn't involve sacrificing many people. I didn't have enough time to explore this world, so perhaps you might find something of use."

" but… let me tell you one thing. Holding on to these feelings of mortals will not do you any good. One day you will understand what I mean. You may think it's harsh or unreasonable, but the truth of the world is that weaklings exist to serve stronger beings."

Esdras didn't answer. He simply ended his meditation, because that lump of coal was cooling down and turning into that white flipped up spirit, it reminded him of a dead fish.

It looks like he couldn't remain active for long which was truly fortunate, Esdras was tired of hearing his voice.

Esdras did not trust the words of this stranger however, he had a way to confirm it himself. It was some thing that he hadn't tried before.

It was one of the traits that you obtained, after fusing with the divine shard, Divination. He was going to see for himself what happened that night.

The Divination trait can be used at the cost of Origin points, since he had plenty on him right now, 33 to be exact.

Within his mind he willed the trait to activate, this is when more information rushed into his head. This information explained how the trait could be used currently.

There were certain limitations due to the fact that the divine shard is incomplete right now. Also he couldn't directly divine his future.

Esdras could think of one or two methods to do indirectly though.

However this time he wanted to see what happened on that night after he lost consciousness. As the divine shard responded to his will, an image appeared in his mind.

He was in a horrible state and had just closed his eyes. He could see Celine crying and wailing with tears streaming down her face.

Suddenly a green ghostly magic circle appeared nearby, an a creature wearing black robes and chains attached to various skulls, these skulls belonged to different creatures.

Celine backed away in fright:

"Do bot be alarmed…" said the voice that sounded like it came from the depths of hell, "I am a servant sent by my great mistress, she has heard your pleas and responded. Rejoice, mortal, my lady, the Queen of dusk and gloom has come to your aid. For a small price… what do you say?"
