17 Near Death (1/2)

_____

Six years ago, the Willorian times began. Aldin was born a year before its beginning, on the 20th of May, Year G99, celebrating 99 years of control for the Gregorians, who were eventually wiped out during the winter of that year by the Willorians, hence, gracing the world with the Willorian Era.

This was information to everyone across the planet, even Nero. The Nobles were apparently told to distribute this information to everyone who lived here, the homeless, those in seclusion and even made it compulsory to teach children of the great Gregorian fall.

Nero highly doubted most of the information. From Earth's knowledge, he knew that the victors of a great war got to rewrite history completely and without diaries and catalogs of those living at the time, no one would really know what exactly happened in, suppose the dark ages.

He also suspected a very unlikely possibility. He had been re-routed through 4-dimensional space to the very beginning of this era because of its suitability.

This was completely different from something like fate, which only had a likelihood to be the case if he were in his own universe. He could be sure that he'd been plucked out of space, from his old reality, into a new one. It was more like reality having to very minutely adjust to him, and placing him at the very first suitable position it could to go back, go back being stable again.

It was the most viable possibility he could think of and he had not an inkling of evidence to support it.

Either way, he was stuck and now had a long journey ahead of him, to ascendence.

To Godhood.

Empty temple lands.

'Uhh, that was unexpected.' Nova quite perplexed, those condensed wind slashes were not in her calculations. In fact, no one would have thought that wind slashes were a possibility with a speed-type weapon, like a scythe that was made to cut through the air, not condense and swish it away.

'...The most likely unaccounted new factor to cause such a phenomenon is the peak-tier basic mana the user inputted previously.' Nova briefly analyzed.

'So, the mana got stored and somehow clumped the air together which the force of the swing accelerated it outwards?'

'Most likely so.'

'...'

”That's SO COOL!” Nero marveled at the weapon's effectiveness in long-ranged combat.

'To achieve such a phenomenon, The scythe has to travel at the speed of 200 m/s, though sudden acceleration reaching 100m/s^2 in 80ms would also suffice.'

”So, I'll try to replicate what you did, just at a slower speed, also just show me a visual path for how my scythe should travel.”

'Copy that'

Nero started slow, he knew he had no need to start fast and end up with a severe mistake stuck in his muscle memory so he would start as slow as he needed to, just to make sure the end result was perfect.

First, he started at 0.2x the speed, then 0.3x, 0.4x and after perfecting his stance and practicing enough, he went at higher speeds.

When Nova had performed the move set, she took a total of 32 seconds to finish. It was tiring if Nero started off at the Nova did, but at a lower speed the moves weren't very energy consuming, so repetition was tiresome.

Neo had finally reached 0.8x when he was finally exhausted.

'Alright, good work. Tomorrow, there'll be a specialist coming, and we need to gain as much from him as we can.'

”Honestly, I wish you could just fight instead of me.” sighed Nero.

'I do too, but I'm not the compatible one here, I'm here for you, my specialization is to take care of you.'

Nova may have a high level of skill in controlling and commanding the body, as well as every kind of analysis there is, but she couldn't implement her result and data with her mind. This is all due to the ever-adapting code, built alongside, that kept her free of detrimental human emotions.

The code was also made to make her absolutely incompetent in thinking for herself, in the unlikely case she took over the host's body and mind.

Without this, she could've easily adapted to become the greatest battle genius, her reflex lag between processing and perception was only 2ms, she had the capability to become the greatest in the world.

”Alright its time to eat juicy magical boars, and sleep a ton.”
