Chapter 466: John Ericks ambition (2/2)
Following the greeting to the King's Teacher, the younger members of the Royal Family bowed toward Ezequiel while the rest clasped their hands.
The Supreme Neo-Demon nodded to the youths before responding the courtesy to the King, Queen, Crown Prince, and Second Prince.
Before saying anything, Zatiel raised his finger and began to write runic lines in the sky. His dexterity and skill drew awe in the hearts of the younger princes and princesses.
However, John Erick Rebellion adopted a solemn aura and took a deep breath before focusing every fraction of his mind on the rune forming in the sky.
Zatiel finished the rune in a couple of minutes. Although it was magnificent, everybody felt that something was missing, but they could not figure out what.
The only one who understood the rune was the King. He gathered piercing energy in his finger before sending several slashes that destroyed almost a third of the rune Zatiel made.
While those actions surprised the others, they made the Neo-Demon smile.
What John Erick destroyed were flaws Zatiel deliberately placed in the rune. Any Rank 5 Animax Soul Runemaster should be able to detect them, but the King's decisiveness was what pleased the Neo-Demon.
Due to Zatiel mastery over the Ultimate Rune Path, even if others Animax Soul Runemaster found the mistakes, their first instincts would be that they were wrong and would hesitate to remade the rune.
John Erick Rebellion immediately remodeling the rune showed confidence in his skills that were born of hard work and dedication.
Once he erased the flaws, the King took out a Rank 6 Devil Lord's True Soul from his space ring and crushed it before using the soul force to create new runic lines.
Although John Erick's Animax Soul Runemaster's skills were inferior to those of Zatiel, they were still impressive, and in a matter of minutes, he finished the rune.
Following that, the rune glowed with a powerful light before transforming into a small rainbow-colored egg.
The egg flew on its own toward Zatiel, and after inspecting it, he spoke to the King.
”Good, you completed a Rank 6 Animax Soul Rune. Although it was a relatively easy one, your skills needed to be high enough to display 100% success with those of Rank 5, so you passed.”
A prideful light appeared in John Erick's eyes when he heard those words. He worked non-stop for the past decade to fulfill Zatiel's task, achieving it with time to spare.
”Keep practicing on your own until your abilities allow you to create Peak Rank 6 Animax Soul Runes. I will then solve all your doubts and assist you in breaking to Rank 7.”
Although he tried to contain it, John Erick's face showed the immense ambition and excitement in his heart. He reached the Peak Rank 6 in his cultivation long ago and could easily perform his ascension and become a Being of Laws. Still, he has been delaying things for the chance to achieve something extraordinary.
He was an undefeatable entity within the Magi World and a mighty Soul Law Domain capable of facing weak Rank 7 life forms.
However, John Erick knew he would only be above average compared with other Being of Laws if he ascended right now. After all, what Rank 7 life form was not a great genius?
The King did not fear the competition or the danger he would face after ascending to a higher stage. On the contrary, he was already tired of peace and sought those challenges, but his goal was not Rank 8 but the highest level of the Prima Universe. For that, he needed to establish a foundation capable of growing his Inner Law Dimension into a real universe.
