Chapter 1249 - Forty Years (1/2)
“This day has finally come. Aurora has stepped into our territory…” the red figure said softly with a tint of satisfaction and pride. A gentle smile appeared on her usually-cold face.
The two of them were Han Xiao and Hila. The glowing golden ‘asteroid’ nearby was indeed Aurora, who was going through the last step of transforming into a Beyond Grade A.
The last forty years had left no traces on Hila. Other than her vibe being colder and more distinguished, her appearance did not change at all. To normal Beyond Grade As, this amount of time was equivalent to about six to seven years, and to a special Beyond Grade A like Hila who controlled death, it was but the blink of an eye.
Han Xiao smiled. “If Aurora was accumulating energy on her own, it’d probably take more than a hundred years for her to become a Beyond Grade A. This is even quicker than I expected.”
His appearance did not change much too, but his vibe became more unfathomable.
The army had steadily expanded over the last forty years, and the bonuses of [Proof of Leadership] increased along with it. Through studying Jayz’s treasure trove, Han Xiao already increased his God’s Trait Transformation to a very high level. He was remarkably stronger than forty years prior.
The leek harvesting technique using the Holy Light Particle reduced Aurora’s process of accumulating energy. With her special trait of having no energy limit on top, becoming a Beyond Grade A was just a matter of time for Aurora. The time it took was close to what Han Xiao speculated.
After quite some time, the golden ‘asteroid’ in front of the two of them finally started to shrink. From an enormous cluster of light, it turned into a silhouette, glowing with light gold light all over, giving off a divine vibe like the combination of mothership and holiness.
Aurora’s appearance changed drastically. She became taller, and her face became gorgeously beautiful; she had the face of an angel and the body of a devil. Her entire style turned from adorable to alluring. It was almost like a completely different person.
Seeing this, Han Xiao and Hila flew over to Aurora and sized her up, looking astonished.
“Why do you look different?” Hila compared her height with Aurora and realized Aurora was surprisingly even about fifteen centimeters taller than her.
Han Xiao stared and studied Aurora’s body for a while and made a decisive conclusion. “This must be the second puberty!”
“This is my new ability. I can control the shape of my body now.” Aurora giggled. Her body glowed, and she instantly returned to her normal tiny body shape. “How was that? Was I prettier than you, sis? I can change back anytime.”
Hila tutted, changed the topic, and asked, “What other abilities do you have?”
Aurora performed them right away. All her abilities were enhanced. She did not have to develop her abilities on her own and directly inherited the progress from her predecessor. She instantly acquired many abilities and talents, fully displaying the advantages of being a cheater.
After entering the Beyond Grade A realm, the life energy Aurora could produce every day multiplied by countless times. She basically did not have to worry about not having enough of it at all. Furthermore, she even got an aura. The allies on her side would have a drastically higher regeneration speed if they were within a certain range of her. The range of this aura would even grow as she became stronger.
“Also, I should be able to perfectly produce revival energy now.”
While speaking, Aurora flicked her finger and sent out a cluster of life energy. Hila saw it and released a cluster of death energy too. The two fused together and turned into a cluster of golden-orange revival energy. The strengths of the two types of energy achieved a stable balance.
“Now that you’re a Beyond Grade A, you only have to briefly familiarize with your abilities, and we will be able to use the reviving function of the Underworld,” Hila said.
The seven… oh no, eight Hero Spirit Kings had been doing nothing in the Underworld. Now that Aurora had become a Beyond Grade A, the last piece of the puzzle was found. These Hero Spirits would be able to have combat capabilities.
With the help of the eight Hero Spirit Kings of the Underworld, the two sisters leaped right to the front of the list of the strongest people in the universe. This was the biggest inheritance left by their predecessors. With enough strength to protect herself, the summoning style would become Aurora’s best combat mode.
Han Xiao smiled and said, “You’re a Beyond Grade A now. Do you want to become a deputy army commander like your sister, or do you have other plans?”
Aurora’s eyes spun, and she said with excitement, “I can protect myself now. Does that mean I can act freely?”
“… Technically, yes.” Han Xiao could only nod.
“Then I want to travel alone. Don’t stop me.” Aurora’s tone was filled with anticipation. She had been extremely bored for years. She basically could not go anywhere at all. All she wanted to do now was travel the universe.
Han Xiao and Hila exchanged a look and saw the resignation in each other’s eyes.
Now that Aurora had become a Beyond Grade A, they could no longer arrange everything for her like before. They had to respect her personal will.
However, at least there was no need to worry about her safety. Aurora could solve most accidents with her current capability.
“I’ll approve it, but you have to take a Throne with you,” Hila said with a serious tone.
Aurora was exhilarated. She turned to look at Han Xiao and said, “By the way, I can join the Beyond Grade A Association now, right?”
She had been longing for the Beyond Grade A Association for a very long time. She had heard that all of its members were talented and sweet. She had been wanting to see for herself.
“Okay, I’ll arrange to put you in… Hmm, the presidential election is in two months. Letting you in will increase my chances too.”
Han Xiao did not reject her.
Now that Aurora had grown, she had more than enough power to protect herself. There was no need to continue hiding her. Plus, she did not want to hide either. She was going to join the association sooner or later.
