Undying Warlord

[Corpses of two Snowwhite Isolation Cheetahs(No Essence Crystal) will be sacrificed to the Fragment of Sun God Valgard’s Divinity, execute the task?]

When he received this notification, Dilan’s mind blanked out for a moment.

He subconsciously agreed to it but didn’t feel like watching the process of the sacrifice itself.

‘Sun God…Fragment of a Divinity…what the hell?!?’

Dilan felt that his sight blurred for a moment but he regained his senses quickly.

Even if he had expected the Sun temple to be something special, especially the miniature Sun, he would have never expected to encounter something related to real Gods, let alone so early.

Not even a month had passed since the Primordial Ascension but he was already encountering the Divinity of the Sun God.

‘So the miniature Sun is the Fragment of the Sun God Valgard’s Divinity? That…is crazy….’

Dilan tried to get more information from the system but it didn’t provide him with anything.

This was quite sad as he wanted to figure out if his Divine occupation was something similar to a Divinity.

‘What does a Divinity of a God even mean? Does it have to be an object like the Miniature Sun, can it be living beings, weapons, all kinds of inanimate objects, abilities, or something else?’

It was only obvious for Dilan to be confused.

That was why he frowned deeply, feeling that he knew way too little about the world Milarn had turned into.

‘I don’t even know how the Sun temple had appeared out of nowhere, so how should I know something about divinities?!’_-.

Dilan suppressed a sigh of frustration before he turned back to the hunters.

When he turned around, Dilan noticed that another group of Lion-men and Hawk-men had arrived next to the hunters.

They were clothed in beautiful garments, and expensive accessories, which made it seem as if they belonged to a royal household. Following the first batch of noble-clothed Lion-men and Hawk-men, Dilan felt distinct pressure of powerful existences.

Instinctively he knew that the four Hawk-men in the back were much stronger than he was.

Their equipment radiated a distinct sensation of danger as well. Thus, Dilan felt like stepping back. Yet, instead of allowing his mentality to be affected by the guards, he overcame it and began to smile gently.

Bowing faintly, he wanted to step aside to allow the noble-clothed female Lions to step toward the sacrificial podium.

However, instead of moving, they glanced at him and didn’t do anything.

This felt odd to him and he was unsure of what to do next when a noble-clothed child stepped forward.

With both of its hands, it was carefully carrying a cushion while approaching Dilan.

On top of the cushion, an ability crystal was placed.

Dilan’s interest was attracted almost immediately because the situation felt a little bit weird to him.

Yet, the moment he saw the information about the ability crystal, his eyes widened in surprise.

“Is that for real?” He blurted out, clearly baffled.

Without a second thought, he looked at the noble-clothed female Lions, not sure what the hell was going on.

But even if he was not sure what was going on, he had yet to be attacked by the powerful Hawk-men, which he deemed as a great sign.

Thus, he thought about something which led him to take action almost immediately.

Dilan first pointed at the ability crystal with his index finger before he pointed at himself. This was his way of asking if the ability crystal was for him.

Seeing this, the female Lions slowly nodded their heads before gesturing with their hands to signal him to go ahead.

Carefully taking the ability crystal from the cushion, Dilan studied every movement of the beings opposite him.

They didn’t move at all and looked at him in anticipation.

‘If they want me to absorb it, why not!’ Dilan thought though he was unable to hide his bright smile.

But it was only obvious for him to smile brightly right now. After all, the ability crystal in his hand was extremely valuable!

[Language comprehension(Passive)] Tier-1 ★

One new language can be learned instantaneously! Understanding of foreign languages increases drastically. The more languages the host hears and the more he studies foreign languages, the easier it will be for the host to learn a new language!

Not wanting to hesitate any longer, Dilan absorbed the ability crystal.

It crumbled in his hand a moment later, while his mind was filled with various information.

For a moment, the sensation was great because Dilan could tell that he was learning more about the three languages he already knew about.

Other than that, it felt like he was able to comprehend the ancient-sounding language the two foreign races had communicated in a while earlier.

However, the more time passed, the more information flooded his mind. The sensation terrified Dilan after more than two minutes had passed. Dilan was not sure if his head would explode at any moment, which was why he groaned in pain while holding his head.

Without hesitation, Dilan used up 10 units of mana to activate his Origin ability [Regeneration].

This made the process of learning a new ability more bearable. However, Dilan had never felt so much pain while binding an ability to himself.

Thus, he was not even able to pay attention to the others around him as he was panting heavily while simultaneously trying to adapt to the sensation.

‘Is it because I have learned a Tier-1 ability…or because [Language comprehension] is just like that?`

Dilan had no idea but if he were to think about it for a short time, he should have been confused why the six hunters weren’t able to understand them if the noble-clothed female Lion was in possession of an ability such as [Language comprehension]!

If he was allowed to learn such an ability, the hunters should have learned this ability as well.

However, that was not the case because of a simple reason- The hunters’ mental strength, and innate comprehension was too low to meet the secret requirements to learn the [Language comprehension]

They wouldn’t be able to overcome the pressure and pain of receiving the devastating amount of information caused to their mind.

The noble-clothed female Lion certainly didn’t plan on killing Dilan by providing him the opportunity to learn the Language comprehension ability.

Rather, she wanted to know how powerful the race that lived on the planet they had infiltrated was.

Other than that, the only way to communicate with each other was for someone with the Language comprehension ability to learn his first language instantaneously.

The noble-clothed Lion-men and Hawk-men had all already learned the Language comprehension ability but they had also learned their first language already.

It would take several weeks for them to get to know the human language, provided that they were in constant touch with a human.

Thus, to communicate without any barriers, they needed Dilan to be able to speak in their language and understand them perfectly.

Through this, the noble-clothed female Lion was able to gain all the benefits, while slowly getting to know whether Dilan was a strong or weak individual of his race.

‘If he is stronger than the average, their race may be as strong as ours, but if he is weaker than the average, we may be annihilated the moment a stronger one appears!’

This was one of the many thoughts on the mind of the female Lion as she had ordered one of their young ones to procure one of the exceedingly rare Language comprehension abilities.

Procuring information was the most important right now, not the value of a single ability crystal!

The female Lion expected Dilan to survive. From the looks of it, he would require, at least, 6 hours before the pain would ebb and he would have learned everything.

His speed was twice as fast as she had learned [Language comprehension]. Thus, it was only obvious for her to be slightly nervous.

Yet, the moment Dilan stood up after merely five minutes had passed since he had absorbed the ability from the ability crystal, it was as if everyone froze in place.

‘He..is already done? That cannot be… Five minutes is way too less of a duration…Maybe he can suppress the pain but hasn’t adjusted to the flood of information yet?’

Trying to calm her mind, the female Lion cleared her throat before she began to speak in the seemingly incomprehensible and ancient-sounding language.

“Greetings esteemed guest of this wonderful planet. I welcome you into the first Basic Temple the Sun God Valgard transported to this wonderful place…the planet Milarn!”

The Lioness was intentionally using words that sounded extremely difficult in her language. She didn’t believe that the weak being in front of her was being truthful to them.

‘Reveal your true self! Show me that you have yet to adapt to the language that was planted in your head!!’

She sounded desperate but that was only obvious. Even if Dilan were to be extremely fast and stronger than the average, possibly even a prodigy of his race, if it was true that he had spent only five minutes to learn and adapt to [Language comprehension], even his race’s average existence should have a much higher mental strength than the average Ligrav!

“How do you know that this planet is called Milarn?”

After using his Origin ability several times in succession, the pain in his head had finally dissipated. Unfortunately, it took him five whole minutes to adjust to the massive flood of information that swept into his mind.

Thus, he could only stand up when he had arranged everything.

Dilan even accidentally forgot to be formal as he began to speak in the ancient-sounding language he had just learned.

He was just expressing his suspicion as the Lioness shouldn’t have been able to know Milarn’s name…except…

‘Was the notification about the Divine Inheritance and the Universe’s Faith not only sent to everyone on Milarn…but to the entire Universe?…NO that cannot be possible…or can it?’

Dilan was unsure if he had missed out on some important pieces of information, however, he could tell that the situation became even more complicated all of a sudden!

‘What a mess…’
