V6.C2 Shea is angry, New Innates

Eri and Yue adopted a serious expression, trying to come up with a strategy in advance. They couldn't believe someone would try to come from another world, just for some meager jealousy. They weren't the ones to sit on the sidelines when someone tries to ruin their life.

"Come with me," Eri dragged Yue and Irene out of the room, probably returning to Remia's house.

He looked at Remia showing a determined expression and quickly pecked her forehead. "Don't be so serious. Even if they are Demi-Gods, I have more than a dozen trump cards to escape. Try not to be stressed, okay?"

Remia nodded her head. Removing the negative thoughts from her, she smiled. "You must return alive or your child will be born without a father... I don't ever want to go through that again."

"Myu will have a sister!?" Myu exclaimed, struggling inside to stay calm. Her role model Yue onee-chan always kept a stoic face which she admired and aspired to achieve.

"Leo-san?"

A hand gripped his shoulder, the force behind it gradually increased. He shakily turned to Shea wearing a sweet smile on her face yet he could feel an ominous purple aura oozing from her body.

He coughed dryly to get rid of the creepy feeling. No way his Shea can be scary, he won't ever believe it.

"Really!? Did Leo-san really impregnate Remia-san? Then why was I denied when I asked for a child?"

"Shea, calm down. We have more pressing matters at hand. We have our whole lives ahead of us to create a family."

She released her iron grip as her fake smile turned genuine. "Yeah, I'm sorry. I'll go out and blow off some steam from training!"

He nodded and opened a gate for her to return.

"Goshujin-sama, this one can call the tribe for reinforcements. We might be able to do something."

Seeing the worried expression on her face, a sudden thought of spoiling her entered his mind. Shaking his head sideways to clear that thought, he answered,

"I disagree, thanks for the offer though. Anyways, it's time for me to get serious. Fuck those idiots! I'll be sure to screw their asses if they decide to show up!"

"Master, I need orders."

"Tomorrow, you'll take Tio, Irene and Eri to clear Orcus Labyrinth to level up. Do not let your guard down at any second and don't hesitate to call me if you need any help. Understood?"

"Yes, Master. I'll be sure to protect them."

"Alright, I'll be training for an hour before heading to Miledi's Labyrinth."

After informing Eri and others, Leo opened a gate to the Gruen desert.

He blinked his eyes in surprise. Is this status really mine? His stats improved to a whole different level and his race was now shown as Monster with two ?? Did I finally stop being human? he thought in amusement. Not only that, his innate Avenger also evolved into Wrath and the description of the new Innate Hollow Saint sounded so cheesy but he could relate to it.

While he was contemplating over his life, he couldn't come to hate anything. In fact, even his hate for his parents murderers and Ehit died down. He had finally let go all of his past and embraced his new life.

'I can control my own wrath… the hopeless battle now appears more fun. I will still prepare to my best, a fight to the death. If those kids think they can come and try to boss me around, they got a thing coming for them.'

A cold gleam flashed in his eyes as his lips twisted in a vicious smile.

(It's good that you are not despairing. Increases your rank in my books.)

'Haha, so you are falling for me now?'

After silencing Jen, he opened the skill fusion menu and lines of text appeared in his vision.

He pressed on the confirm then another menu popped up. Struggling to hide the excitement threatening to show up on his face.

[Are you sure you want to fuse the skills for 40000SP]

[YES] [NO]

He tapped the Yes button, he had 1,895,000 SP thanks to Hearst. His adorable Valkyrie wife always sneaks away to kill monsters when he doesn't pay attention.

[Skill fusion in process…]

[Skill is too powerful for a normal skill]

[Finding suitable innate ability for the user… Complete]

[Innate ability 'Warlord's Territory' acquired]

[Warlord's Territory] (A)

Consumes mana to create a territory around the user. The reach is decided by the amount of mana consumed.

Domain of Perception (Passive skill) : Ability to sense any thermal fluctuation, mana and predict attacks in the territory.

Transference (Active skill) : Ability to feel any presence and transmit thoughts to them in the territory.

Oppression (Active skill) : Weakens the strength of enemies. The effect is based on the enemy's strength and quantity of mana consumed.

Touch of Death (Active skill) : Grants instant death to anyone weaker than the user.

He couldn't find any words for this innate. Today was just full of surprises. He closed his eyes and expanded his mana in a sphere of 10 meters. Finding nothing, he pushed his mana to 20 meters, 30 meters… further and further, only stopping at 1000 meters, his current limit.

Just as he willed, an overwhelming amount of information directly entered his brain. Heat signatures of hundreds of monsters, mana signature of a random monster fighting another along with the future directions of every single life in his territory. He reflexively activated the Rift walk skill to cope with the strain this innate put on his mind.

His overheated mind cooled down and he began moving his consciousness in his territory. He turned off the prediction for now and observed the fight of worm monsters. The worm celebrated its victory by eating the dead prey. At that moment, its body trembled visibly. Without any signs of injury, it collapsed on the corpse of another worm.

This power is a bit overwhelming... To kill anyone weaker than me in a radius of 1km.

He shook his head and pondered over which skills to fuse next.
