-God's realm-

The three strongest gods in the modern world was now seen together. Usually they would avoid each other due to each other's established religion, but they knew that now wasn't the time to deal with those petty stuff.

"Zeus, what happened to your arm?" the Almighty One asked while looking at Zeus' arm.

"Haha, surely Zeus was fooling around with his own faction's goddesses that they blew off his hand," Odin casually threw a joke while chuckling.

Odin and the Almighty One didn't know what really happened to Zeus. Both of them were still speculating on who might have done that to Zeus. The three of them can't be damaged that easily, and if someone is capable of doing that damage to Zeus, then that just means that a powerful expert from the upper world has descended. However, when they heard Zeus' next words, they were both stunned.

"A human who somehow got our bloodline did this to me..." Zeus was trying to suppress the pain that he is feeling right now.

"An ordinary human you say...?" Odin's eyes immediately turned serious.

"Were you able to determine what kind of power does he hold? And what element is he able to control?" the Almighty One asked.

"I don't know. I got this from him while he was unconscious. I threw my bolt to him but he was able to return it to me, so I'm guessing he is in the same realm as ours," Zeus contemplated.

"Since this just happened yesterday, I'm assuming that he has no idea how to control his bloodline yet, right?" Odin already know the answer but he wants to have the confirmation of Zeus.

"Yeah... He is still a newborn god, for now. I'm not sure who gave him that bloodline, but I'm seventy percent sure that it is connected to the banished gods," Zeus said.

"If that person was able to receive help from those bastards, then we must act and get rid of him right at this moment!" Odin pounded his hand on the table.

"Odin, we can't appear on the mortal realm right now. We would be causing total chaos if we do. Tell Hades and Hel to give the two of us one soul each. We're creating a new Celestial being dedicated to destroy that human," the Almighty One ordered.

"How about Lucifer? Are you not gonna let him help you?" Odin said so without thinking.

The Almighty One's eyes immediately turned vicious like he was going to bring hell on earth. He knows about Odin's tendency to be dense with these type of things, but still he can't help to be angry at him.

"If you're worried that I will not be doing anything, then worry not. I'll fuse two of my Seraph trumpets into their bodies," the Almighty One assured them.

"Aren't you going to start Ragnarok (Ogyges) if you do that?" both Odin and Zeus asked him.

"Of course, I'm going to restrict the power to just control a single force of nature," the Almighty One replied.

==============================================================

Unaware of what the gods are talking about at the god's realm, Aurum was stunned when he heard that announcement from the system. He was ecstatic and scared at the same time. He knew that if he was going to face them right now, he would be good as dead.

[DING! System suggests that the Host conceals his godly aura to avoid clashing with the Celestial Beings. Host is too weak at the moment to engage them in battle.]

"How do I hide my aura though..." Aurum didn't even know that he was giving off some godly aura, so he had no idea how could he possibly conceal it by himself.

[DING! System has bought Aura concealment skill for the Host at the skill shop for 450 CP.]

"Haha, system helping me without even asking is somewhat a good feeling," Aurum silently approved at the actions of the system.

When he activated his Aura concealment, he felt as if some part of his body has been shut down completely. He did feel uncomfortable, but for the sake of survival, he would endure it until he gets enough power to beat those Celestial Beings.

When he entered inside the campus, many of the freshman students were a little bit shocked upon seeing him going to school. All freshman students know who Aurum is because at the opening ceremony before, he fought against ten people at once and won with only minor scratches.

When he entered his classroom, everybody was also shocked, not because he came in to school, but because they couldn't sense his presence at all. However, those shocked expressions of theirs immediately turned into rage because he just entered without any permission.

"Hey bastard! Who do you think you are, barging into the Mike's room! Just 'cuz you beat ten people at once doesn't mean that we are afraid of you! If you value your life, then get the f*ck off this room!" Someone from the classroom said.

"Hmmm... thirty-five people eh? Hey kid, you can threaten me however you like, but you need make sure that you can back up your words, alright? Thirty-five people ain't enough for me. If you want to drive me away, you should bring tens of thousands of people to actually scare me," Aurum said in a domineering manner.

The other students just sniggered when they heard that. Just by looking at him, people would know that he was just ignorant about the power structure here in the school. They were all amused except for one guy. He was just looking intently at Aurum but didn't say anything to him. As the guy was staring at Aurum, Aurum couldn't help but notice his gaze. When people looked at where Aurum's gaze landed, they felt as if an immense pressure was pulling them down. Neither Aurum nor the guy gave in to the pressure that the other party emitted.

"System, scan him for me,"

[Error! Error! Person cannot be appraised.]

Aurum was shocked when he heard that he cannot use Appraisal I on him. The only thing that he knows is that the appraisal skill that he has is only useless against Celestial Beings and gods.

"You... What's your name?" Aurum took the initiative to ask the guy.

"Asking for someone's name without even introducing yourself? Man, you sure are rude ain't ya?" the guy responded.

Aurum rolled his eyes, but he can't really say anything back because he knew what the guy was saying makes sense.

"Alright, that was my bad. The name's is Aurum Est. Now that I introduced myself, would you please give me your name?" Aurum replied with a hint of sarcasm.

"My name is Dmitri Vladimir," Dmitri just said his name and nothing more.

"Mind if you step out with me for a bit?" Aurum asked.

Aurum really wanted to know if Dmitri is a Celestial Being or not. Aurum did not think of anything else except for this. He didn't even thought about how to escape if Dmitri was really a Celestial Being. Dmitri stood up while walking towards Aurum. He and Aurum went to the track and field yard facing each other.

"Tell me who sent you?" Aurum asked.

Aurum decided to brand him as a Celestial Being till he confirmed it. He asked Dmitri directly that even Dmitri was stunned by his question.

He shook his head and let out a sigh while saying "I am not your enemy" which Aurum didn't buy. It only deepened his suspicion further and tried to make him slip up many times. After many rounds of questioning, Aurum was still reluctant to trust that Dmitri was not a Celestial Being. After all, whenever he asked a question concerning about it he would only answer that he is not an enemy.

"Stop this foolish act you're doing right now! I told you I am not your enemy! How many times do I have to repeat myself till you understand that" Dmitri was getting upset after being questioned repeatedly.

'System what are the chances that he is a Celestial Being?'

[DING! After hearing the conversation and observing his reactions, the system concludes that he is a Celestial Being. However, system cannot feel any malicious intent directed towards the host]

"I'll trust you for now but if there's ever a time where you strike me, I will not hesitate to kill you!" Aurum declared to Dmitri.

After hearing that declaration, Dmitri just shrugged his shoulders and said to him "You still can't beat me. Try again when you are strong enough"

Aurum was provoked by what Dmitri said to him. He was about to punch Dmitri to teach him a lesson but was interrupted by a person who was walking towards them while laughing maniacally. Despite him being alone and was just walking, Aurum felt terrified by his bearing.

[Warning! Warning!

The human in front of the Host is a gifted one.

Chance of escaping: eighty percent.

Chance of killing the Host: seventy-nine percent.]

When Aurum turned his gaze to identify who was the person who wants to kill him, he was frozen in place as he identified who it is.

"Well, well, well, if it isn't Mr. Est! Long time no see!" The guy said.

"Mundo Sanders? Dr. Mundo, why are you here?" Aurum asked.

"Why do you ask? Well it's because you gave me a hard time on looking you. I hired those mercenaries to take you, but they never returned. Those bunch of bastards, you probably killed all of them using your own hands didn't you, Mr. Est?" Dr. Mundo said.

"When I could not find you, I was terrified of not being able to see you again... A perfect guinea pig for me and for my experiments, almost about to slip through my hands. However, however, however! A person gave me the power to take you! To get you! To control you! So I came here personally to fetch you, hee hee hee~" Dr. Mundo was filled with excitement and finally showed his true colors.

"Aurum, stay behind me. I'll handle this worthless piece of trash right this instant, so rest assured, that nothing bad is going to happen to you," Dmitri said.

"You? Handle me? Are you saying you have the power to kill me?" Dr. Mundo's eyes became bloodthirsty as he looked at Dmitri.

"I have the power to dominate all of you right here and right now, and you're telling me that you are going to kill me? I am a chosen one! The messenger of God personally gave me the power to get Aurum! You dare stand in my path when God is even supporting me?! Nonsense!" Dr. Mundo was going through a transformation as he was saying this.

Dr. Mundo's body was convulsing intensely right now. He was beginning to turn into a demonic human as the negative emotions in him controlled him. His body was turning purple and he was beginning to get bigger.

"Oh man, he totally lost control of himself right now. He is just a mindless demon in his current state. I don't think I can hold him while I am protecting you. I want you to go and hide, right now!" Dmitri said in a stern voice.

"Hell no! Why the hell should I hide when there's a battle in front of me?" Aurum retorted.

"Just stop being stubborn and lea--" before Dmitri can finish what he was saying, his words was cut short due to Dr. Mundo punching him.

Dmitri was literally sent flying a thousand meters above the ground. Aurum, who was being stubborn earlier, can't help but regret his actions. He turned around and began to sprint away and hide himself.

"AURUM! YOU CAN RUN, BUT YOU CAN'T HIDE FROM ME! I'LL FIND YOU, AND WHEN I DO, I'LL KILL YOU IN THE MOST PAINFUL WAY YOU COULD POSSIBLY IMAGINE!" The demonized Mundo bellowed.

While he was running, he suddenly sensed that his life could be taken away from him any moment now. He jumped sideways and a butcher's knife went past where he was standing earlier. Aurum was really terrified at that moment. He doesn't have any mobility skills that would help him get away from this current nightmare. He could just run away while relying on his Danger sense skill to avoid being hit by the butcher's knife that demonized Mundo was throwing.

"System, I don't care how much of my CP you will spend, just get me a mobility skill right now that can guarantee my escape to one hundred percent!"

[DING! System has bought Wind walk skill for the Host. CP is now zero.

Wind walk : Boosts mobility five times in 3 minutes and doubles base Agility stat.

Cool down : 10 minutes]

As soon as he got the Wind walk, he bolted through the forest, leaving a rampaging demon without an enemy at its the vicinity.
