Chapter 238: Golden Beach (1/2)

Ed's destination was the south-eastern continent. At least, that's the last place his grandfather contacted them from. He thought about ways to find him and settled for the simplest one. Sweep through the whole continent until a green dot is found.

Since every second was precious, Ed decided not to travel by ship. Instead, he activated his dimension and Berserk skill. His plan? To fly the whole distance between the continents. This was only possible for him, as he used his dimension to half the time needed, while his Berserk skill allowed him to have more leeway with his KI.

Ed left Emilia and Bella with his companions to sightsee. He noticed how Bella was fidgety and nervous and guessed how it must be related to meeting her grandfather for the first time. He knew it, as he was also feeling nervous. The last time the prince met his grandfather was ten years ago, and even those memories seemed hazy.

His grandfather who lived for over 100 years and helped put an end to Blood sect. How would he react to Ed and Bella? Will he notice anything about Ed? All sorts of questions popped into Ed's head as he flew over the sea. The smell of salt invaded his nose as a golden aura surrounded his body.

'System, what will be my chances of beating someone at Immortal Establishment level 10?' in order to pass the time, Ed checked in with the system. He thought about the impending war and compared it with the Bloody war. He thought about how he only won thanks to acquiring Parallel thinking prior to that war. If he wasn't so lucky every time, how would he keep winning?

[70% chance when fighting a normal cultivator. However, if you're fighting someone with Harald's innate talent, less than 5%.] Ed fell into deep thinking after listening to the system.

'Anyway around it,' Ed wanted to be absolutely sure of his next choices.

[Unless something unnatural happens to you, yet, no way.]

'What do you mean, 'unnatural'?'

[Unless you activate some unknown power that I don't know you have. Aka, some mc power.]

Ed looked ahead of him with a 'are you serious face'. 'What mc power', he thought to himself.

'So, what are my choices? I doubt I can raise my cultivation all that higher, and I can only fight on so many levels higher than me'

[You've been gaining a steady amount of Gacha tickets. You have 70 of them right now, so that should count for something. But, since you plan on getting more, you only have two options, which are related to each other.]

'I'm listening.' Ed decreased his flight speed and focused on the advice of his system.

[First, kill a Mythical grade, or higher, monster and make it your avatar. Second, get a Mythical grade monster, skill, or item. From now on, I reckon things won't be as simple as they had been. You've been lucky when fighting Alexander and Harald since they had no Avatar souls. If they did, you wouldn't have won.]
