SON OF THE HERO KING

Chapter 566  CH 526: GLUTTONY (1)

As if not caring about Nuwa, the voice continued fast,

[This Heaven and Earth Formation has many interesting functions. One of such being that the more I explain to you how it works, the weaker you become.]

She grunted as she felt like shackles were being tied to her feet.

[Currently, you are in the Mounatin Gate and you need to reach me in the Heaven Gate. Only by reaching and beating me will you be able to escape. To make this restriction stronger, I am also tied down to the Heaven gate and unable to leave until you reach me. Only by beating you can I actually leave.]

“You are wasting time.”

[Indeed I am. I will most likely die. But in the end, I will have managed to waste enough time for the mission to succeed. That is all that matters.]

Nuwa gritted her teeth. Her usually expressionless face showed signs of anger. She could have never guessed that she would get trapped in such a way. This made her angry at herself and she hated this feeling.

[By now, the restriction on you should be impossible to break. I have seen your strength. It seems like your Zone has something to do with Gravity. This is undoubtedly powerful. But I can say that without a doubt there is no way a Duke can escape this place without following the rules.]

A light chuckle followed and she was left alone.

Nuwa recognized she had been careless.

She could have dispelled the crimson fire with her hammer but she had been too greedy and hungry, deciding to devour the fire instead.

The following digestion slowed down her response time and she had not been able to attack the man as fast as she wished. There was also the fact that eep down, there was a clear disdain she had toward her opponent. After all, she had been looking down on the Tigers. She did not think a Duke outside of the Tower could actually cause her problem.

‘I was careless.’

The words Gerald told her filled her mind and she realized once again that old experienced people should always be listened to.

{You know I am far older than him, right? You should listen more to me as well.}

‘I don’t like you.’

Her answer was simple and Echidna could only laugh. She knew that Nuwa was very {So, how do you plan to escape this place? and just before you say something stupid like —}

angry now.

{So, how do you plan to escape this place? and just before you say something stupid like —}

‘I will smash it.’

Echidna had no time to stop Nuwa as she took out her hammer but no sooner did it happen than she let it go.

The weight was too much for her and she could feel her strength waning faster.

[I forgot to say. Breaking the rule brings punishment. The more rules you break the more limitations are imposed on you. Hahah!]

Nuwa could feel that not only her strength but also her mana was slowly being devoured.

She realized that her own mana was even used to juice this formation. Making it even stronger.

She to admit one thing.

‘He is strong.’

{You should have listened to me until the end before acting. I would have never thought that I would see something like this again. Zone such as this are very rare but they are thorny to deal with. The user places many restrictions on himself and the more he does so, the more powerful the domain actually becomes.}

She had a somewhat whimsical voice as she spoke of this. In the past, the mortals had nearly no knowledge about how to progress and become stronger.

This might have been why, they were far more imaginative when it came to the kind of power they wanted.

This kind of domain had been very popular when she was young. But the number of used swiftly dwindled as people started to realize that you didn’t necessarily have to restrict yourself to have more power.

To learn such a zone, the man must have been really desperate.

{You have three ways to escape this place. The first one is obviously to follow the order. This is very straightforward but I can assure you without a shadow of a doubt that you will fail. Each Gate will most likely add more restrictions to you. Making you weaker and weaker until you reach the Heaven Door and become nothing but a sitting target.}

This was a very insidious trap.

{The second way is to bet. Why do you think he warned you about the increased punishment when trying to destroy the place?}

‘Because it isn’t impossible?’

{Yes. There is no such thing as indestructible in this world. Even a divine kingdom can be destroyed. Much less a zone. Even so, the power necessary to break this place will be high and each time you fail, you will pay the price, making any subsequent attack harder. Had you waited and listened to me we could have gathered more force for one big blow. But it’s too late.}

Nuwa pouted.

‘I get it. I made a mistake. No need to repeat it. So, what is the third way?’

{Give me your body and let me show you.}

‘So this was your goal all along.’

{Yes. I wanna walk. You only let me use your body for a few minutes recently. I wanna fight once again. It has been so long. What do you say?}

Nuwa frowned. She knew that Echidna was dangerous and she knew that she shouldn’t entirely believe her.

Even so, up to now, Echidna had never done anything detrimental to her. Perhaps… She could give her a chance?

She looked around. She was still standing on a mountain peak and she didn’t know how long it would take her to reach her destination.

In the first place, was time even moving the same as in the real world?

She didn’t know. She had no way to know. This was why…

“Okay. Let’s do it.”

Her eyes darkened before a new liveliness replaced them.

A grin formed on her face as she started to laugh,

“Hahaha! Let me show you. Just what you can really do with this body!”

[Zone: Black Hole!]

She would show the true power of Gluttony.
