Chapter 127: Favorite of the Gods, Miss Yun
To be precise, the entire system of Supernatural professions can only be extrapolated up to the fourth rank at most.
Once you reach the Master level, if you want to continue advancing, you can only rely on yourself.
Because every Champion-level individual is a unique entity whose existence cannot be simply broken down into a specific profession and merged into the so-called Supernatural profession system.
It is no wonder Lucy would say that the Champion level and the Master level are as different as heaven and earth.
The two have essential differences in every aspect.
But well... these are all too far away for her.
After all, she only just advanced to the Elite level not long ago.
As for the Master level, who knows how long that will take.
Not to mention, there is no guarantee she will even live until that time... "Pah, pah, pah, thinking of such unlucky things!"
Shaking her head vigorously, Yun Mu looked at the clock hanging on the wall and then closed her book.
Let's stop here for today; it's almost dinner time.
Elena had specifically reminded her about it when afternoon tea ended earlier.
It would be better not to be late.
Thinking this, Yun Mu tidied up her book and placed it back in its original spot on the bookshelf.
Afterward, she carefully checked her equipment once more, and after confirming there were no issues, she left Brenna's bedroom and headed toward Elena's room.
It is now around 5:15 PM; by the time dinner is over, it will be nearly 6:00 PM.
That is the time Yun Mu agreed upon with Edward in the note.
She still has to go out to investigate tonight, so naturally, her equipment and such must be prepared in advance.
"It would be perfect if I could carry a few more Chestnut Bombs with me," Yun Mu thought with some regret as she left the room.
When she first came out of the Dungeon, she had intended to find time to purchase materials to make Chestnut Bombs.
Then she would have Lucy help her make some, and she herself would learn the techniques for making Chestnut Bombs under Lucy's guidance.
As a result, because of various matters, she has not been able to find the time until now.
Fortunately, when Lucy's level broke through to the Elite level, she gained a trait called 【Equivalent Exchange】.
It allows her to consume Spirituality, or energy like 【Qi】 and stamina, to create Alchemy items out of thin air that exist for half an hour.
This is why the Chestnut Bomb recipe she obtained in the Dungeon did not become completely useless.
But then again... is this 【Equivalent Exchange】 trait a bit too outrageous? Just by consuming energy, one can create Alchemy items out of thin air; even if they only exist for half an hour, that is terrifying, isn't it? I wonder if all Alchemists are this overpowered, or if it's just Lucy.
She thinks it must be the latter; otherwise, if every Alchemist had the Equivalent Exchange trait, wouldn't they have unified the world long ago? Thinking about such random things, Yun Mu walked slowly to the front of Elena's room.
"Miss Yun~" As soon as she walked into the room, Brenna, who was already sitting at the dining table, greeted her immediately.
And Elena calmly placed the food on the dining table.
An inexplicable sense of familiarity welled up in her heart, and a familiar female voice rang out beside Yun Mu's ear.
"Miss Yun!"
In a trance, the figures of Brenna and Elena shifted, and the appearances of Lita and Edward emerged in her mind.
So it was this kind of déjà vu... "Hehe." Yun Mu couldn't help but chuckle.
She blinked, and the scene before her instantly returned to normal.
Although it was sudden, at this moment, certain things and thoughts solidified in her heart.
Whether it is Scarlet, or Natavia, or the Local Church.
No matter what they want to do, or what their purpose is.
As long as it disturbs her peaceful life and endangers the people she cares about, she will exhaust every cost to wipe them out!
Although it might be overestimating her own strength, this is her thought and her determination.
【【God of Knights Olipod lv??? (Myth)】 commends your determination and chooses to bestow a blessing!】【You have gained the trait 【Riding Mastery!】】【You will be proficient with any creature or vehicle that can be ridden; the moment your hands touch it, your proficiency with it will automatically rise to the veteran level.】
"Ah?"
Before Yun Mu could recover, the next notification followed closely behind.
【【God of Swords Reindot lv??? (Myth)】 is unwilling to be outdone; He chooses to bestow a blessing!】【You have gained the trait 【Sword Genius!】】【Your learning ability for Swordsmanship has increased, and when using any Swordsmanship, your Swordsmanship level +3!】
"Ah?"
【【God of War and Thunder Helington lv??? (Myth)】 gazed at you and gave his two subordinates a punch, forcibly interrupting their argument.】【He marveled at the various miracles upon you and bestowed upon you the title fragment 【Favorite of the Gods (1/15)】】【Your resistance to all attributes is increased to 80%! (Inactive)】
【When all living beings meet you for the first time, they will subconsciously develop a good impression. (Inactive)】
【Your Luck and Charm attributes will be greatly increased. (Inactive)】
【You will be more easily drawn into events involving 【Fate】. (Inactive)】
【When you fall into a life-threatening state, all gods who recognize you will notice instantly. (Inactive)】
【This title is a God-tier title and requires the recognition of fifteen gods to activate.】
【【God of Swords Reindot】, 【God of Knights Olipod】, 【God of Civilization and History Heral】, 【Goddess of Radiance Linfulei】, 【Mother of All Cats Eve】 have been summoned and have recognized your 【Favorite of the Gods】 title.】【Favorite of the Gods (6/15)】
【Four gods who do not wish to reveal their names watched you with curious eyes and quickly withdrew their gazes.】【A burst of strange laughter suddenly rang out; 【God of Pleasure and Chaos Vikala lv??? (Myth)】 recognized your 【Favorite of the Gods】 title.】【At the same time, He poked Goddess of Radiance Linfulei, but the other party ignored Him.】【Favorite of the Gods (7/15)】
【All the gods present looked at 【God of Pleasure and Chaos Vikala】 with disdain, but He clearly did not care.】【【God of Pleasure and Chaos Vikala】 kept emitting strange laughter, and almost all the gods subconsciously frowned.】【In the end, all the gods left.】【Only 【Pleasure】 remains.】 "..."
"Is-is-is-is it over?"
Yun Mu said, trembling as she looked at the large amount of text refreshing in her mind.
Although the last line about only 【Pleasure】 remaining made her a bit panicked, it probably didn't refer to that God of Pleasure and Chaos Vikala.
After all, the previous line also stated that all the gods had left.
"Phew."
After confirming that all the gods had likely truly left, Yun Mu finally let out a sigh of relief.
All, all in all, this should count as a good thing, right?
She thought to herself, feeling somewhat uncertain.
Not to mention the two new traits, Riding Mastery and Sword Genius.
They both felt like very useful traits.
But compared to the one that followed, the title of Favorite of the Gods, they were still far too inferior.
Damn it, what kind of concept is increasing all-attribute resistance to 80%? This is all-attribute! Including all-attribute resistance to fire, cold, Corrosion, Bleeding, slashing, blunt weapons, spells, and more! If she could really obtain this title, wouldn't she be directly invincible in the mortal world? Uh, although this title is still a bit too difficult to obtain—it requires the recognition of a total of fifteen gods, and she has only gathered seven so far.
She still needs the recognition of eight more gods to activate the title.
According to her situation of having seven gods recognize her in the nine days since she became a Chuanzhezhe.
She could take this title in less than a month—as if! There's no way anyone would think she could still attract the gaze of a god almost every two days like before.
How could that be possible! Being able to gather seven now is only because her identity as a Chuanzhezhe attracted the gaze of those gods.
The gods who were going to show up have surely already shown up; the rest are naturally those who are not interested in a Chuanzhezhe.
That said, all-attribute resistance increased to eighty percent.
I want it, I want it, I want it, I want it, I want it! Yun Mu ate her dinner absentmindedly, Roaring in her heart.
What? You ask when she sat down at the table? Of course, it was when the game notifications were refreshing in large numbers!
Reality isn't an anime or a game where you can pause time. With such a long string of message notifications, how could she possibly stand still?
Therefore, even though her whole body was stiff, her face showed no expression, and she was even drenched in sweat.
Yun Mu could only pretend that nothing was wrong and enjoy dinner with Brenna and Elena.
It was just a pity that she couldn't taste a single bit of the flavor of the good food on this table.
Her attention was entirely focused on the game notifications.
And after finishing dinner, Elena's figure disappeared into the shadows.
Leaving only Yun Mu and Brenna on the surface, sitting in the hall of the Frost Bank, Waiting for Edward's arrival.
"Click."
At approximately five-fifty-five in the evening, a pair of thick leather boots passed through the Illusion Gate of the Frost Bank.
Edward, wearing a tan leather jacket, walked into the room; hanging at his waist was a long sword weapon with a distinct overseas style.
"It really can pass straight through!" Lita's familiar voice came from outside the Gate.
Subsequently, a male voice that sounded somewhat hoarse rang out: "Don't shout, hurry up and go in."
"Oh, oh."
Lita cautiously passed through the Illusion Gate of the Frost Bank, and when she saw Yun Mu, a relieved smile immediately appeared on her face.
And following behind her was a Beastkin nearly two meters tall, wearing an exquisite black-gray shirt?
Yes, a Beastkin.
A Beastkin with slit pupils, golden eyeballs, and distinct white-brown feathers growing under his neck.
Looking at his appearance, he seems to be an eagle?
"Hmm?"
The other party seemed to notice her gaze, and a pair of golden pupils immediately looked toward her.
"Meow!!"
Almost subconsciously, Yun Mu stood up straight abruptly, her fur seemingly exploding as she hissed.
It was just a pity that her hiss didn't seem to have any deterrent power.
"So, so cute," Lita thought, looking at Yun Mu's movements and expression, immediately covering her cheeks.
Guess why Sisilaiya Cafe keeps cats?
"Ahem, Leinuode, pay attention." Edward gave a light cough and said.
"Apologies."
Hearing Edward, the man named Leinuode shifted his gaze away and said.
"It's, it's nothing." Yun Mu said with a blushing face, wishing she could find a crack to crawl into.
Damn it, what kind of stupid thing did she just do!?
She actually meowed in front of so many people!
Ahhhhh, kill me.
She thought, wailing in her heart.
Brenna noticed Yun Mu's expression and chuckled inwardly.
She came before Edward, reached out her hand, and said: "Hello, Mr. Edward."
"Hello, Princess Brenna." Edward smiled, reached out, and shook Brenna's palm.
"Let me introduce everyone first," he said.
"This is Leinuode, my former First Mate, and currently the Supernatural Guard Team Captain of the Frostfall City Guard Hall." Edward patted Leinuode on the shoulder and laughed: "Don't look at him like this; his personality is actually quite good."
"Nice to meet you," Brenna said, reaching out her hand.
"Hmm." Leinuode reached out and shook Brenna's palm, nodding: "I didn't expect to see the Princess here; it's truly surprising."
"As you can see, I am an eagle Beastkin. As for my profession... it's the same series as the Captain's, a Tier 3 Storm Swordsman."
"I've already said many times, don't call me Captain anymore, Leinuode," Edward interjected helplessly.
He had specifically mentioned Leinuode's identity as his former First Mate earlier just to explain that Leinuode was trustworthy.
There was no other meaning behind it.
"..." Leinuode was silent for a moment, then nodded slowly: "Understood, Mr. Edward."
"Hmm."
Edward nodded, then looked at Lita behind him and said: "This is my daughter, Lita."
"I originally didn't want to bring her along, but she insisted on coming no matter what."
"I hope the Princess doesn't mind."
"No, no, no, how could I? One more person means one more source of strength," Brenna replied with a smile.
While she and Edward were communicating, Lita was quietly observing Brenna's appearance.
"Is this the Princess?"
"Her hair is so beautiful!"
Lita thought as she watched the silver-white hair gently drifting behind Brenna.
"Hmm, she feels like a very lively child."
While Lita was observing Brenna, Brenna was actually observing her as well.
She looked at Lita's golden-brown pupils, couldn't help but take two steps forward, and said, "Hello, I am very happy to meet someone of the same age."
"Y-y-y-you, hello!" Lita said, reaching out in a panic.
Just kidding, this is the Princess of the Frost Kingdom!
She was merely a reserve member of the Supernatural Guard (because she hadn't gone to register the update yet); how could she not be excited to see the Princess greeting her personally!
"There is no need to use honorifics; your age should be one year older than mine."
"Y-yes!" Lita said somewhat nervously: "I am 17 years old this year, exactly one year older than the Princess."
In the Frost Kingdom, almost everyone knows the Princess's age, because when the Princess was born, the newspapers publicized this matter heavily.
PS: The God of Swords Reindot and the God of Knights Olipod were both once ordinary mortals.
It was only because they believed in the God of War and Thunder and performed excellently in the past God War.
Thus, they were promoted to generals by the God of War and Thunder.
Which is the position of a kin.
And the Authority they obtained was in Swordsmanship related to war, as well as horsemanship.
——I don't know if you have noticed the character cards.
Yun Mu's age is 15.
Brenna's age is 16.
And Lita is the oldest, 17 years old~ (End of chapter)
