Chapter 152 - 152: Going Through the Heavenly Tribulation Part 4 (2/2)
After finishing the digestion of all the essence of Darkness, Theo didn't level up, which surprised him a lot. ”I thought it was too easy before… after all, I've already made it to the 11th Layer of the Apprentice Wizard Kingdom.” Looking up at the sky and seeing another Tribulation forming once again, Theo muttered, ”And it looks like it's not over yet.”
Theo imagined that this would be the last one, guessing with the logic that it was 2 of lightning, 2 of fire, and now it had been one of Darkness, so only one more was left. Well, at least that's what he thought. He really didn't know if that was how it would really work.
”Okay, I don't have any time to waste, I still need to use the last two Pills before I reach the Wizard Kingdom.” Theo thought and took the Fire Pill that refines 60% of the body.
Wasting no time, he brought it to his mouth and swallowed. Gritting his teeth, he endured the pain coursing through his body as it was beginning to be refined by the Pill. But the pain he was feeling couldn't even compare to what he suffered from using on a Heavenly Tribulation, so he was holding on quite well, relatively.
All this time, Theo was still wearing his level 5 armour. Although he didn't necessarily need it right now, he was still wearing it because in the unlikely event of something interfering, somehow, he might end up getting hit by the Tribulation.
It was also because while devouring the Heavenly Tribulation, Theo was always at full Mana. He was even able to continually maintain his illusions.
Sighing as the effects of the Pill passed, Theo knew his time was short. Although he was happy with the improvement that the Fire Pill brought to his body, he soon took the Water Pill into his mouth and began to digest it.
If before, he was in constant pain and torment from the flames that were purifying him, now Theo was in a state of pure ecstasy. It was as if all the bad things in his body were being washed away… well, that description wasn't far from the truth. Theo's body quickly became drenched with the impurities that came out of his pores. It was all thanks to the Pills. Theo then used on himself as he looked up at the sky, watching the gigantic Black Mammoth form.
This Black Mammoth was at least 4 times larger than the Dark Wolf. ”Although it's a bit big, didn't I use on the Faux Heavenly Fire Dragon that was even bigger than this Mammoth? I'm sure I'll be fine…” Theo muttered.
Throughout all of this, the girls and children from the orphanage could only see the illusions showing a Tribulation of Faux Heavenly Fire that Theo was supposedly undergoing. He knew that now more than ever, it was essential to hide his real skills.
It was because he firmly believed that since they were vigilant of him before, just knowing that he had gone through a supposed ”Heavenly Tribulation” to go to the ”Spiritual Kingdom,” there was a good chance of them trying to observe him more closely. Well, at least as long as he couldn't get a technique or skill that can guarantee a perfect disguise from people. He thought it was the best course of action.
In fact, he wasn't actually changing the Heavenly Tribulation that much for them. He was just disguising it, making it look like he was battling the Heavenly Tribulation with his body while wearing level 5 armour instead of devouring it.
[Congratulations! Your Ability has reached Level 7]
While many thoughts were going through his head, Theo received some excellent news. ”That's great, now I can do even more things with this ability.” Theo murmured in his heart.
