7 Fusion & Confusion
[DING! Host leveled up to 6. Host has unlocked the Unyielding will ability.
Unyielding will: Boost the Host's Endurance and Intelligence by twice the amount.]
"Wait, system. How did I get this Unyielding will ability when I did not buy anything from the shop?" Aurum asked.
[DING! Because the Host has the combat system, you can obtain the ability of killed opponents.]
Aurum now has another purpose on fighting strong people. Aurum got out of the alley way and went home. While he was walking towards his house, he asked the system to show him his stats.

"System, is it possible to use my CP to increase my stats?"
[DING! Yes. Host can use CP to increase stats. 2 CP can increase 1 point of the stat that is selected.]
"1 stat point for every 2 CP... I guess it's worth it. I could easily gain the CP back," Aurum thought, "System, when can I unlock the other two abilities?"
[DING! Host can unlock the unknown abilities when certain conditions are met. As for what conditions must be met, there is no way of telling what it is.]
"Show me the shop and only display the things that I can buy."

By the time that this happened, he was already at home. He was currently living alone so there's nothing to worry about going home late. He went to take a shower to freshen himself up and think about what he wanted to buy.
"Hmmm... All of them looks useful but there is one thing that I'm missing right now, and that is my bloodline." Aurum really pondered on this very hard in order to avoid any regrets later.
He bought God's bloodline and 2x Experience boost from the shop. After he did that, he suddenly felt dizzy. His head was aching, his sight blurry, and his body numbed that he even can't feel anything at all. It was just like the side-effect of using Ultra instinct, but this time it was without fighting.
[DING! Host brought God's bloodline.
God's bloodline - removes the restriction that was set by the gods. Gives the Host 100% affinity to all elements. All base stats have been tripled.
Bloodline infusion will be completed in 3 days.
Forcefully entering into sleep mode.
System's auto-defend system activated]
"Damn, system! Why didn't it give me any warnings ahead of time again? How much more must it do this to me before it is to be satisfied?' Aurum cursed, eventually falling unconscious.
=========================================================
While he was unconscious, in the god's realm, many major gods and goddesses were forced to gather around. The last time that this happened was when the humans tried to overthrow gods from their throne.
"Someone just broke through our restriction that we set up," a goddess announced it first, "only those who have the bloodline of gods, demons, and celestial beings are the only ones who can break through this restriction." she added.
"We must stop this person before he stirs up trouble again. I'm not going to stand back and watch him grow. I will not let history repeat itself again," She remembered how many of them suffered under the hands of humans whom they created and wished for Aurum to be eliminated right away.
"Freya... Don't be hasty. He is nothing but a mere human. He doesn't even know how to use his bloodline yet," a god tried to appease her by saying this.
But instead of being relieved, Freya was enraged by what he said.
"Hermes! If you want to repeat what happened before, then you can do it alone! I don't want us to suffer more losses this time! If he were to know how to use his bloodline, then it will be already too late for us to stop him, what are you going to do when that happens, huh!?" Freya retorted.
"Freya, that's not what my son is trying to say," Zeus tried to lessen the tension by saying this.
"Then what?! Tell me what it is! I cannot let this man, who has the potential to destroy us, to grow!" Freya's voice was cracking right now.
"Freya, he is still nothing but a human right now. Since you are so cautious towards him, then let me end your worries right now," Zeus stood up and got his thunderbolt. He threw the thunderbolt towards the location of Aurum's house.
=========================================================
[Bloodline fusion at 86.23%]
Two days had already passed by, and Aurum was still asleep. The system gave an alert while processing the bloodline inside Aurum. The sky outside was getting darker and darker even though it's still ten in the morning. The clouds were gathering as if a storm is going to break out. Lightning was escaping out of the clouds as if it was threatening living beings to stay inside indoors.
Suddenly, a lightning bolt descended fast towards Aurum. Aurum, who is still unconscious, can only rely on the system's auto-defense system right now.
[Warning! Warning! God's weapon is descending towards the Host. Activating emergency skill - Reflect.]
As soon as the lightning bolt was gonna hit Aurum, it's power was reduced by 50%, and the remaining power was forcefully refined.
[Refining Zeus' lightning bolt...
Complete!
Counter-attacking in two seconds...
Fire!]
The remaining power of the lightning bolt was sent back towards Zeus with the additional power of the lightning that the system refined.
===========================================================
"That takes care of that."
After Zeus threw his thunderbolt, he did not even spare a another glance towards Aurum's place. Freya, along with the other gods and goddesses, were now relieved when Zeus took action. In the god's realm, Zeus was one of the most powerful god that is living right now.
However, when they saw the lightning bolt being sent back to the owner, they were extremely horrified. They never thought that an unconscious human could do that. Zeus, who was about to leave, felt it first and took a look at his lightning bolt. He was surprised that his lightning bolt was deflected and used it to attack back to him.
"BRAZEN HUMAN! YOU DARE DEFY A GOD?! I'LL SHOW YOU WHAT WILL HAPPEN WHEN YOU DEFY US!" Zeus tried to grab the lightning bolt that was fast approaching towards him.
He was pretty confident that this bolt of lightning that he threw won't damage him. After all, he was lightning himself. When he grabbed the lightning bolt, intense pain filled through his hands. He looked at his hand, which he used to grab the bolt of lightning, and found out that it was torn apart.
"Argh! Haa... Haa... Haa..." Zeus screamed, then it was replaced by some rapid shallow breathing.
All the other gods panicked at the scene in front of them.
"If that unconscious human is able to deal that kind of damage to Zeus, then how much more damage will he be able to inflict if he was conscious?" All of them shivered of the thought that.
"Haa... haa... haa... Go... Get... Odin... and.... the almighty one..." Zeus needed all of his energy just to speak right now, but he still told them what to do.
All of them dissolved their meeting, along with a casualty with them.
========================================================
On the third day, Aurum finally woke up. However, he cannot see the ceiling from his house. He sat up and took a look around. When he did, he was flabbergasted. His whole house was burnt down! Nothing was left around him except for some ashes. He saw people looking at him at the distance.
"Someone call the ambulance! There's a survivor here!" One of the person at the crowd exclaimed.
"Can someone tell me what happened? Why is my house burnt down?" Aurum was perplexed by the situation he's in right now.
"Poor kid... He must have been traumatized that he forgot what happened..." Another person said amidst the crowd.
Aurum was getting upset because nobody would tell him what happened. Therefore, he asked his system for the details.
[DING! The wrath of the thunder god descended on you while you were unconscious. The gods were alerted by your transformation and tried to get rid of you as soon as they can.]
"Why the hell would the gods smite me while I'm out cold..." Aurum thought.
Aurum decided not to ponder too hard about it, and asked the system to show his stats. When he did, his eyes were wide open, as he can't believe that a single bloodline can do so much transformation on him.

"Why did my rank go down? Isn't it supposed to go up instead?"
[DING! Since the Host fused with the God's bloodline, the ranking that is shown above is for the gods. Your human ranking for now is at B rank. Host needs to learn how to control the bloodline in order to significantly raise its power. The fastest way to master the bloodline is to fight people and to fight other gods.]
As far as Aurum knows, he could fight with as many people as he want at his school. He stood up suddenly and walked away. When people saw him, they thought that he was pitiful because they thought that he remembered what happened yesterday. But little did they know that he was already pondering if he should go back to school or not.
"Man, I'm pretty sure none of them will be able entertain me now. Being human while having this bloodline, it is quite an overkill when I'm gonna fight them.' Aurum thought.
"Speaking of bloodlines... System, I noticed that my skills and abilities have levels and I previously didn't see any of that. What does this mean?'
[DING! Due to the Host fusing with God's bloodline, skills and abilities will level up and if it reaches a certain threshold, the skill or ability would evolve. To level up abilities and skills, the Host must use it during fights.]
Aurum chuckled. He knew that it was gonna be something like this. He was still happy because he already confirmed with his system. Aurum then went to his school, ready to pummel people. While he was on his way, many people who had a grudge with him tried to beat him up using their numbers on their side. Aurum saw them and he was happy from the bottom of his heart.
"Ahhh! This is life! I still haven't got into school but I already found some people who will entertain me."
He activated his Rampage ability and tried to level it up. Upon activating it, his eyes turned crimson. He looked like as if a demon possessed him and he can't stop thinking about killing everybody. His desire for blood increased ten-fold and he looked like a beast who can't stop thinking about how to slaughter them all. He got his Mazda's blade and annihilated all of them, including the whose who saw him do it. When he sliced them, there wasn't even any blood that was spurting out.
[DING! Host gained 563 Exp (+563) and 428 CP (+428)]
By the time he got in front of the school, he deactivated his Rampage ability. After doing that, he was just about to take his first step into the school since it is the time for the opening ceremony. However, before he did, he was frozen in place because of the next words he heard from the system.
[Warning! Warning! Two Celestial Beings are in the campus.
Chances of surviving: 3.8%
Error! Error!

System advises the host to proceed vigilantly.]
