Rebirth: Tyrant's New Reality

Arkhen woke up after three hours of rest, fully refreshed and recovered.

"We thought to let you sleep more since you were exhausted and didn't wake you up when Beinard came here," Azela said with a smile.

"Don't tell me you were massaging my head the entire time?" Arkhen asked as he saw Aleza still sitting on him with her hands on his forehead.

"Yep. But you had a comfortable sleep, so I guess it was worth it," Azela said with a cute smile as she kissed Arkhen before getting off him.

"Thanks," Arkhen with a smile as he laughed happily.

"Arkhen," Emily said before she pointed at the small hologram display in front of her. "They said that if you can kill one person out of those four, you can become an elder level member of the alliance."

"Oh? That sounds easy," Arkhen said with a surprised expression as he stood up and walked towards the hologram display.

'Velshi, who among those four is the nearest, and how many reality points it will take to teleport right behind that person so I can do a quick assassination?'

[My lord. All four of them are in a neighboring galaxy right now. The distance between them is not much if we consider it on a large scale. It will take 1.9 million reality points to teleport beside the nearest person and 2.1 million reality points to teleport beside the furthest person out of those four].

'Hmm… So the full trip, including returning will cost 3.8 million reality points,' Arkhen thought as he looked at his remaining reality points.

[Reality Points: 4,600,570]

'Alright, let's do it,' Arkhen said with a grin.

"Girls, return to the ship while I go finish the task," Arkhen said as teleported both Azela and Emily back into the spaceship before he also disappeared.

…

Inside a giant spaceship traveling in space, Arkhen appeared in the main central control room of the spaceship, right behind a middle-aged human male sitting on a throne-like seat.

There were also many people sitting in front of this middle-aged man in a section as they were facing advanced computers and multiple hologram displays.

Arkhen was not planning the waste time, so the moment he appeared, he waved his right hand, which had already turned into Dragon Blade.

He slashed at his fastest speed and reaction possible while conjuring a Slaughter Blade as a long dark red energy blade extended from the Dragon Blade.

Just to make it sure and quick, Arkhen even strained his core and went over the limit to use 15,000 EP and expended 500,000 chi energy in this single Slaughter Blade's conjuration that was in tandem with Dragon Blade.

Behind Arkhen, there were some guards wearing metal armor and laser rifle standing, so they quickly noticed a person appearing behind their Grand Admiral's throne. However, everything happened too fast.

They saw Arkhen appearing and pointed their arms at him, but Arkhen's right hand already made a slashing motion as it cut the head of the Grand Admiral.

[2 reality points gained]

A faint spark of energy also appeared around Admiral, indicating that he sensed the danger and wanted to use a skill to defend himself. Alas, he was late.

'Velshi, put his head inside the inventory.'

*BOOM…*

Since the conjured Slaughter Blade was long, it also cut the spaceship.

Moreover, Arkhen rotated his hand fully to entirely cut the spaceship's front as the head of the spaceship separated from its body. The people at the front panicked as they quickly used their flying-wing skills to float in space and covered themselves in the barriers.

"He killed our admiral!"

"Attack!"

*Brrrrrrrr…*

The soldiers behind Arkhen started firing from the energy-driven rifles as they spent their energies shooting max-powered energy bullets towards Arkhen.

But Arkhen quickly covered himself in multiple force-fields.

*BOOOM….*

A second later, Arkhen used the bloodline ability that he had never used before, the <Hyacinth Prison>. Naturally, he also didn't hold back on his energy to use this bloodline ability!

A giant starry plant-green barrier appeared in space and covered the entire spaceship, while Arkhen flew and passed through the prison barrier easily since it was his bloodline ability and he could quickly get out.

A second after he went out, Arkhen triggered the true nature of the ability. The starry purple barrier suddenly bloomed with dark starry purple flowers from inside, creating a sort of layer inside the barrier that was full of flowers.

<Hyacinth Prison>

-Effect: After trapping a certain area in a barrier prison, it will bloom Hyacinth flowers inside that will absorb all attacks the people trapped inside use to break the prison. At a certain point after reaching the limit, the flowers will explode with greater intensity, causing destruction inside the prison barrier, which will also result in the prison barrier shattering into pieces.

Indeed, the people trapped inside started attacking from inside to break out of the prison. They hurled various attacks at the flowers inside the barrier to break the prison. Alas…

*Booooom!!!*

All flowers exploded since they were connected! A chain explosion started as all flowers burst with intense starry energy blasts spreading in the entire barrier.

Arkhen started hearing notifications about gaining reality points as many people died inside.

He didn't plan to stay here after the prison barrier exploded as he flew far using his Purple-Star wings. His flight control and speed were actually faster and better in space.

After two minutes, Arkhen saw no energy ripples around and quickly decided to teleport back into the room before he got attacked.

If he got attacked, it would prevent him from teleporting.

'Velshi, time to return.

…

After Arkhen handed over the Grand Admiral's head to Beinard and the Alliance Heads also confirmed the news through other means, they readily gave elder-level membership to Arkhen.

[Congratulations, you have completed the Side Quest: Lord's Mount]

[The flying Mount Selection Box has been added to the inventory]

Arkhen didn't open the mount selection box in a hurry since he also wanted to get other things from them. He decided to open the box after entering the 1st realm.

"Ready the essence pools for three people. Three portions of Primal Essence, one portion of Chi essence, and one portion of Mana essence," Arkhen said to Beinard.

"Alright, we'll prepare that in thirty minutes and call you," Beinard said with a polite smile before he left the room.

On the other hand, Arkhen teleported Emily and Azela back into the room.

After ten minutes, the three of them went into a chamber with a total of five pools.

"Here, three primal essence pools, one chi essence pool, and one mana essence pool," Beinard said with a smile. "You can absorb the essence and refine your cores to the limit as these pools are connected to big reserves of essences."

The chamber had other 3 meters radius pool-shaped holes everywhere, but the rest of them were empty.

"Let's enter," Arkhen said as he dived inside the Primal essence pools.

Emily and Azela also entered the primal essence pools since both of them had Primal energy cores. Arkhen also decided to make his primal core reach the peak of refinement first.

'Velshi, how is this essence collected?'

[My lord. Each planet has a set amount of various essences in its core. After entering the core, you can collect the essences. However, if a large quantity of essence is taken at once, it causes the planets to enter into a certain stasis state that weakens the circulation of essences in the atmosphere of that planet].

[The planets can only return to their normal state after some time of recovery from the universe. Though if a planet's core gets damaged somehow by taking a large quantity of essence to squash the chance of that planet's recovery, it starts the countdown of that planet towards its death].

'I see...' Arkhen nodded internally before he grinned, ' I remember you saying that 1st realm has a completely unique world structure…haha, I can't wait to reach there.'

[Yes, my lord. You can look forward to the 1st realm. You will be surprised, pleasantly and unpleasantly both].

...

It took three days for Arkhen to refine all of his cores to the peak refinement. Azela and Emily took a day since they only had to refine one core each.

[Congratualtions, my lord. You have completed the maximum possible refinement of your cores. To break past the 100,000 EP and enter the true path of power. You must ascend to the 1st realm and continue your adventure in the grand world of the Nine Realms].
