Chapter 306 - The Mantle (1/2)
After an unknown amount of time, Evan had finally dealt with all the demons and angels. This battle seemed endless to him. He killed demons and angels time after time, after which they revived and increased in number. They were like immortal hydra. But, even such a creature had its limit.
In total, Evan killed over a million angels and demons. He used a wide variety of techniques to exterminate them. Over time, he even began to run out of imagination. After all, this fight was not difficult. His opponents didn't stand a chance of even hurting Evan.
The biggest problem with this fight was that it was drawn out and boring. Evan froze them, burned them, tore them apart, crushed them. It was impossible to list all the ways he killed them.
”Eh, it's finally over. I hope I didn't go through the ordeal too long.” Mumbled Evan.
It seemed to him that at least ten hours had passed. But, in the real world, no more than ten seconds had passed. That was the difference between the two worlds. However, this kind of thing only happened when Evan was going through this ordeal. It was one of the effects of his power that changed the rules of space.
Evan waved his hand, and the same gray door with purple edges appeared in front of him. When Evan saw it again, he realized that it was very similar in color to the chaos energy his body was emitting. In a mighty Splash, his energy was not only gray but also purple.
He opened the door and walked through it. Simultaneously, all the magic circles over the pool were destroyed, and Evan slowly emerged from the dark water. He was a mage and was at the stage - Three-Pointed Star, so he had no problem holding his breath for more than an hour. This was no problem for him.
”So, how did I do?” Evan realized that Hugo couldn't see what happened in that space. But, he was sure Hugo had his own ways of knowing how well Evan had performed.
”Top notch.” Hugo calmly replied and wrote something down in his notebook.
Evan didn't see it, but Hugo, next to Evan's name, wrote just one letter, ”S.” It was the highest score a contestant could get at all. This meant that no matter how difficult or important the mission, Evan could take part in it. There were no barriers for him, and his potential was challenging to determine.
Hugo had once been rated the same way. Moreover, most of the members of the Demonic Tree in Castle Rave had a grade - ”S.”
Evan smiled, he liked that Demonic Tree didn't restrict the actions of its full members in any way, except for one exception. If he got a low grade, he would be denied some assignments for safety reasons. In some ways, this restricted his actions, but it was logical and fair in other ways. But, Evan wasn't willing to accept even that compromise. So when he learned that he had received the top score, he was pleased.
”Now I'm a full member of Demonic Tree. Right?” Evan asked. It was actually a rhetorical question.
Hugo smiled, and his spatial ring glowed. A red robe of ebony appeared in his hands, which he handed to Evan.
