Chapter 672 - Noland Trix (1/2)
”I guess you didn't tell me because it wouldn't have mattered...” Nik smiled in understanding. Right now, he had returned to his spiritual world. Instead of a single dragon 'gif' totem, another one was added. A cruel-looking viper slithered around his body and playfully entangled with the dragon. The ground was equally divided in red and purple. Beneath the ground was an icy hell. Above the ground was a beautiful starry sky with unimaginable stars.
He sat lazily on the ground while stroking Lilith, whose blade body lay atop Nik's lap. She would 'hum' as the sword would tremble every time. Nik's hand even reached out for the hilt of the sword and gave her a soothing massage while inquiring Sky and others, including Lilith herself. Pure's icy blue 'parrot' body flapped about and played idly while Asmodeus continued to chase Pure down with her raised slimy tendrils. Sky, meanwhile, nestled on Nik's head. Her cute, bat-like physique leaned down on his head and nuzzled.
”I'm not worried, really,” Nik replied with a smile.
”Really?” Sky inquired with a dubious tone. If someone just found out that almost everything except his spiritual world had been marked with enemy forces to be used at the right time, any sane person would feel quite scared and nervous. That was the reason why Asmodeus kept this secret with Sky. The two of them were adept in the matters of various energies thanks to their interests. Even Asmodeus slowed down in chasing Pure as her blob of a body 'turned' towards Nik.
”Yeah... I'll remove as many marks as I can but I feel like there will be plenty that I wouldn't be able to remove due to the sheer difference in level. However... why not shift these marks to someone else? Or something else for that matter. If I cannot remove them, can I not try to change the targets of these marks? I now hold the initiative in this matter. Purification and absorption. That is the ability of my beyonder bloodline aside from their investigation methods,” Nik smiled as a viper formed of red mist appeared behind Nik and poured crimson venom over Nik.
The venom didn't affect Sky who was on top of Nik passed through her spiritual avatar before entering Nik's body. In the real world, instantly, an absorption force erupted from the gates of his spiritual world and absorbed a total of 123 seals and curses!
Even then, two marks remained. They glimmered with power and resisted Nik's action of absorbing them. Just like Khooni's, these were Mirage's and Nirdai's methods.

However, Nik didn't continue the futile act and let out a sigh of relief. Just a single wave of comprehension had actually allowed him to understand his bloodline and finally gain the full support of the abilities of a beyonder/ravager bloodline with another ability now stating in his information.
[Devour: A+
Use: The ability to devour to expand and restore energy reserves.]
Nik closed his eyes to feel the effects of using this ability for the first time.
They weren't great.
Considering that these marks were supplied by superior beings like Nirdai and Mirage, Nik felt that he would have earned big time but the results were disappointing. However, before he could change the direction of his thoughts, the two marks left by Mirage and Nirdai began acting and started marking Nik's entirety once again.
Sensing this, Asmodeus and Sky were tongue-tied.
Meanwhile, Nik couldn't help but smile widely.
”This... ordinarily, devour techniques shouldn't work against seals and curses. Instead, they absorb natural forces of the world but...” Asmodeus' voice sounded a little hasty as Nik snickered, ”But beyonder bloodline isn't from this world. It has the ability to unravel almost every method of the world due to differences in origin. I can devour the seals but not the three main methods left by the trio ancestors. This means that Newton's explanation left out many considerable points regarding the strength of the person itself when considering the beyonder bloodline. Hah! But continuous regeneration of seals means... free energy baby!”
Nik guffawed while Sky sighed with emotion. These forms of 'lucky' encounter may be hard to come across for others, but she had been with Kaal for a considerable time. She knew that such fortune was just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to Chaotic soul. For all she knew, the chaotic soul might have repelled a meteor without the group's knowledge!
After all, Luck has been one of the most distinguished and mysterious concepts of the world.
Even though the supply of energy from the curses and seals was quite low, but with continuous absorption, he would eventually reach the rank 4 stage in his reserves, too.
However, with the innate nature of the bloodline, Nik couldn't use [Devour: A+] on every form of energy or items. Some will get purified and the things that aren't purified, those will get absorbed. In a sense, this provided Nik with quite a neat form of defense!
”Alright... I'll focus on reaching rank 5 within the month itself. Loki's intel on an alien army more than willing to screw up the planet should be true enough. But now that I've sided with Loki, there's no reason to let go of Shield and Wakanda, too... hehe, such juicy resources but none to protect...”
Nik always had the thought of looting the organization and the kingdom. He had also made plans for the Hydra! If he wouldn't go out of his way to fill his pockets, that would be simply weird. But in Hydra's case, Nik was willing to be patient. Their experiments had no moral compass and he desired to see the results. Meanwhile, Shield surely had a way to create sentient bots, like robo Director Fury. Wakanda... Nik didn't even need to mention it. Just that amazing panther statue had incited his greed!
