Second Reality

28 Join me?

*Zoom into Sentan's P.O.V

After sleeping for who knows how long I slowly open my eyes. "Ugh that always hurts." I sit up and complain to myself about waking up after using Demon Berserker's Rage as I wake up super sore. I stretch my sore body and finally observe my surroundings. I am inside of a tree that looks like it was recently carved out. I feel all stuffy. Must be the morning dew on my skin. I look in front of me and see a Ork Demons head. This is the boss of those Ork Demons Gigra. I should take it to the village to show them proof. Well I think I have fully repaid that village everything I needed to.

They are a bunch of idiots. They didn't even know the strength of their enemy yet they tried to revolt. "Sigh, ignorance is bliss." I stand up and enjoy the full body breeze. I grab the head and walk out of my temporary shelter in a tree. What a great day. "Good morning Master. You've been asleep for two days but your vitals were completely fine so I didn't bother you."

"Good morning Evangeline! Two days huh? Well oh well. Show me a route to the village. I'll walk there this time. I am going to enjoy some nude time." Speaking of I wonder what happened to all the blood that was soaking my body before the fight. Considering my body was really hot may it evaporated off? I don't know so I'll let it be.

I jump off the tree branch and start heading in the direction toward the village in a casual manner. Observing the forest from the ground is pleasant. I guess I missed all this by always traveling on the branches, but I am not going to lie that method is a lot faster than walking through the bottom as I am. There is so much foliage down here it blocks my path a lot. I am not sure this is a forest anymore this might be a jungle but there isn't that much rain. Would that make it a jungle? I don't know I am not a biologist specializing in plants. I shrug my shoulder and continue on my path going in a straight path breaking any foliage in my way.

"Going around everything would be a waste of time. Oh! Now is the perfect time to learn to control my aura." I continue walking and concentrate on my aura slowly releasing it instead of just releasing it all at once. I start to feel all the power coursing through me inside specific paths. Are these my meridians? So the system is really helping me cheat. Even though I am ignorant of my meridians I am still leveling up my strength. Hurray! No bottlenecks for me. But considering my strength I am probably less knowledgeable about meridians and my divine power than a Mortal Stage Divine Combatant. As I familiarize myself with my meridians and the route my power takes I start to feel more in control of my power. I fully release my aura with no hostility and I crushed all the weak foliage but the trees only made strong groaning noises. All their leaves fell to the floor.

"It's not what I wanted but it is progress as not everything was crushed into mush." As I walk toward the village a barren path to a greener path appears in my wake. As I gain more control by learning of my own power I realize how much energy and power I have been wasting. "Damn I am glad I came out to practice all these flaws in the future would have been very detrimental."

I also notice how my body absorbs energy from all my surroundings at all times. "Is this the energy I use? Is mana also in here?" I stop walking and concentrate on gathering this energy and look at my stats. Specifically my mana and stamina regeneration.

Name:

Sentan Michael Zavron

Age: 8 years

Health:60,000/60,000 Heath reg.:3000/s

Mana:88,000/300,000 Mana reg.:8000/s

As I focus on gathering this energy I watch as my regeneration stats spike immensely.

Name:

Sentan Michael Zavron

Age: 8 years

Health:60,000/60,000 Heath reg.:3000/s

Mana:168,000/300,000 Mana reg.:80000/s

"Holy shit I found the cheat!" I notice though that as soon as I lose my concentration and focus it immediately returns back to what it was. "Fuck! I guess this cannot be used in battle." At least I know how to replenish faster now.

After 2 days of practice I finally reach the village outer edge again. I feel that I have many times more control of my power than I ever have before. What a splendid feeling. I put some clothes on finally. God walking around completely nude is so comfortable, but I am civilized so whatever.

As I enter the view of the villagers I hear, "Saint Sentan is back! Go get the Chief!" As I reach the village I am greeted by now Chief Theodore, His gorgeous wife Cleo and some other villagers. "Saint Sentan how did it go?" Chief Theodore anxiously asks.

"It went well those Ork Demons won't be bothering your village any longer." All the villagers cheer and the kids beam in happiness. I see Chief Theodore and Cleo look relieved. "I thought you would take longer considering you didn't ask where their headquarters were. Thank you Saint Sentan. May I inquire about all the kidnapped women that the took with them?"

I pause, "None of them made it." Suddenly everyone looks saddened. Well they were extremely traumatized having to be played with on the daily from what I saw none of them had any hope. Cleo has tears run down her face and she hugs her husband. Acting Chief Theodore shakes his head, "Such a sad loss. Thank you Saint Sentan for trying."

I look at him, "No problem, but you guys are idiots." Everyone looks stunned then infuriated. "What do you mean Saint Sentan?" Cleo looks as if she'll lash out at me but Chief Theodore holds her back and replies. "You guys didn't scout the strength of your enemy before revolting. If it weren't for me you guys all would of been wiped out." I grab the head out of my storage dimension and throw it towards him. "Their leader was a Saint level Combatant. With the strength of only two Peak Mortal Stage Divine Combatants you guys would have been all done for."

I visibly watch horror climb onto the faces of everyone. "How is that possible? We have only ever seen Mortal Stage Divine Combatants!" Cleo yells at me. I look at her, "You guys didn't even know I was a Saint Stage Divine Combatant and why would a leader come and take care of a simple task as collecting tribute?" She shuts up immediately and lowers her head in shame. Fuck she is hot. "Anyway's I have repaid this village of anything I owed. Where is Myla?"

I watch them stiffen, "Thank you Saint Sentan. Myla is at our house. Why do you want her?" I look at Chief Theodore. "Because I am taking her with me." Chief Theodore looks at me, "Is there anyway I could dissuade Saint Sentan otherwise?" I cross my arms, "There is not. I have made up my mind."

Cleo screams at me, "No! She is only 8! She should be with her family until she is older! She doesn't need to go with you!" I stare at Cleo. "I. Don't. Care. She is coming with me whether anyone likes it or not."

Cleo clenches her fist, "And if we refuse?" This time I smile sinisterly. "I don't mind letting you guys share the same experience as the Ork Demons." Killing intent starts emanating out of my body. I feel fear from everyone and my power intensifies in strength causing my killing intent to become even stronger. A few villagers pee their pants and they are all frozen in place. "Trust me I do not mean any harm to Myla."

Chief Theodore and Cleo look horrified. Then Chief Theodore sighs and lowers his head with his eyes closed. "We understand. Follow me to my house." The Chief turns around and starts walking towards his home. Cleo grits her teeth and clenches her fist tightly but turns around and follows her husband. Everyone else stays where they are shivering.

As I walk behind them I look at them as they look at each other occasionally while walking. "Myla will be able to visit. I don't know when or how often but she can." As they here this I can see them lighten up a little. If I kept them tense as they were they would've fought me or killed Myla so I couldn't take her with me. I don't know what parents would do to protect their children but I am not going to risk it.

We reach their home, "Wait outside. Myla will come out to say goodbye." They stop and I walk into their home. I close the door behind me and walk towards the only presence inside the home. I go up the stairs and turn right. I go down a hallway and open the door to see Myla asleep on her bed. "She is sleeping in? It's almost midday." I go up to her bed and sit on her bed. Myla wakes up and rubs her eyes trying to see me, "Mommy? Daddy?" I look at her, "No."

She wakes up instantly, "Sentan!" She hugs me suddenly. I smile. "Myla. I have something to tell you and ask you." She lets me go and says, "Okay Sentan." She sits up on her bed in criss cross and looks at me smiling.

I look towards her, "You died at the tribute platform." She suddenly looks stunned. "W-wha? N-no you're lying! If I died I wouldn't be here. W-why are you joking with me Sentan." She shakes her head, crosses her arms and turns towards the side with her eyes closed and a pout. "I am not lying to you Myla. Remember. I know you can." She looks deeply into my eyes and suddenly has a flashback.

Her grandmas splint in half. Her running towards the platform. Sentan protecting her. Her falling to the floor painfully unable to move. Then darkness, the light, the devil hand and waking up to see Sentan. "No! How could I have died! Ahhh!" She starts screaming and I hear her parent barge into the home and start running upstairs. I emit my aura so it affects only outside the room and her parents freeze there. As Myla grabs her head yelling and rocking back and forth I slap her, "Calm yourself. I know you already knew something was up." Myla sobs a little while holding her red cheek. "I brought you back to life with one of my lives." She looks at me with wide eyes still holding her cheek. "So to say your life is my own. Now I need to leave. I want you to come with me. Join me?"
