148 Ten Towers Formation (1/2)

Zatiel did not think too much about the way the trio was looking at him. His actions may be impressive in their eyes, but in his mind, they were simple invasion tactics and they could not compare to the plans and schemes of his previous life.

Now that he had given them all the information about the forces currently occupying this world, and battle that had happened between them, Zatiel advanced to the next subject.

”How long until the three of you get rid of the restrictive pressure of the world?”

Heinz, Zitra, and Totto understood that before they are able to use their full power, the invasion could not continue, as just a single Soul Forging existence of the Heavenly race could stop all the rest of the fighting force that came from the Magi World.

The trio closed their eyes and focus their consciousness on the invisible chains around their bodies and the power they currently have.

On individuals at Rank 4, the power they could display under the world restrictive pressure was around twenty percent, and the amount of time it takes to get rid of it varies depending on their powers.

Fifteen minutes later, Heinz opened his eyes and after making some calculations he spoke.

”It will take two months for me to be able to use my full strength again.” Heinz could feel the power of the shackles around him and the immense quantity of them.

”For me, it will be approximately a month and two weeks” Zitra spoke immediately after Heinz.

When Zatiel hears the two of them he frowned. What they just gave him was the normal time that a Rank 4 life form will need to overcome the restrictive pressure of the world by increasing their proficiency on the natural energies to defeat it.

He knows that as Rank 4 individuals they have a faster way to do it, but it seems that the duo has no knowledge about it.

As he was thinking, Totto's voice broke his concentration.

”For me, it will only be a week.”

The time he will need was almost a fourth of the time that will take to Zitra despite the shackles in the two being around the same.

Neither Heinz nor Zitra were surprised by his answer but Zatiel looks at the old man and his eyes narrowed.

Totto knew that he had raised the curiosity of Zatiel. If it was any other individual beneath Rank 4, he would not feel the need to explain himself but now he spoke immediately.

”I have information about a method to increase my affinity with this world, but I got it as part of a deal and I made an oath, so I can't share it.”

After hearing Totto's explanation, Zatiel noded. The type of oaths powerful enough to bound a Rank 4 life form is special and breaking them could carry severe consequences.

Zatiel started to think about how to handle this situation.

Actually the method to improve their speed was no very difficult and he could explain it with ease, but he was hoping that all of them would already have it, to save himself some trouble.

He had no problem sharing it with Heinz, but he had no relation with the woman. As for helping her due to her beauty, that was just stupidity in his mind.

In the end, though, he chose to share it with the three of them. Right now the Heavenly race is hurt and their attention is focused on the demonic horde, but that will not remain like that for a long time, so they need to act fast.

”I will tell you a way to speed up the process so pay attention. Instead of using the natural energies to increase your attunement with the world, you should focus on the laws.”

Zatiel's words surprised the trio, especially Totto, as he had to pay a great price for the information that was coming from his mouth.

”All the laws are present in the universe, and the core of each one of them is constant, but the way they manifest themselves in some worlds change due to some particularities in the origins of these ones. That is why in some world, the use of anything related to fire is greatly intensified while water is weakened.

Use the laws that you had comprehended and focus on the small change that you feel between the laws of this world and the Magi World. By understanding that difference, your laws will become stronger and the restrictive pressure will be weakened quickly.”
