I'll Surpass The MC

438 Incident Nature Reflection

"I don't know if this Loot guy is Inala's scheme or if such a character truly exists." Virala muttered, "If it's the former, then Gannala and Asaeya are living in disguise. But if it's the latter, then both of them have been brainwashed to follow Loot's arrangements. Either way, Gannala's influence on me is dangerous."

"So, she needs to die."

He was also angry about Gannala gaining all his information, not to mention obtaining Weaponisation itself. As long as she was alive, he would never gain an advantage over Inala.

Thinking as such, Virala began to change his plans, 'I need to do something before I'm destroyed by the Boar King. At this rate, he'll continue to chase after me. I won't have a moment's rest.'

As Virala continued to look through the study, he came across two pieces of information that shocked him. First of all, there was the Mammoth Ancestor's severed tusk lying beside Karuta Hill. And present within it was something called the Dance of Annihilation.

As long as one uses the Bone Slip Skill while touching it, they'll gain the Dance of Annihilation, 'The Boar King expresses here how it was a pain to endure such a volume of information. He got a headache as a result. If anyone not him tries the same, their head will explode.'

The Boar King then transferred it to Yarsha Zahara, since it was useless to him. She had used the information in the Dance of Annihilation to further the creation of her cultivation technique, which was why she noted down the information.

All the documents in the study room were a result of her research and were created for the Boar King to access and give pointers when he arrived. He only stays for a limited time at Fentan City every time he comes, so Yarsha Zahara made a habit of recording everything of value so that she doesn't miss anything to inform him.

"Isn't this something made precisely for my use?" Virala nodded and got ready to leave. He wasn't leaving simply to fetch the Dance of Annihilation. There was a second, stronger reason behind it, which was the fact that the Boar King was hiding at the Varahan Mansion, meditating deep underground.

Virala hadn't sensed him because the Boar King under Varahan Mansion didn't have any Natures of Internal Inertial Gravity in his Astral Chart.

At first, it seemed like the Boar King had hidden this body at the Varahan Mansion sneakily to prepare for Loot. But if that had been the case, then he should have been actively using his detection ability to find Loot.

If that happened, he would have sensed Virala when he entered the carriage—that entered the Varahan Mansion—as an orb and remained a few minutes in that state. That was when it was the easiest to sense his position.

For a Boar King that managed to detect him from tens of thousands of kilometres away, finding him from such proximity should have been a piece of cake. The fact that he hadn't found Virala meant that the Boar King was busy doing something else, something that needed him to split his body despite the risks it would pose.

The various Natures present in his Astral Chart influence his body to a tremendous extent. So, the moment a body is split, it would be impossible to fuse without causing an implosion, because, in a few seconds, the influence would pile up and make them too different—mentally and physically—to be stacked upon each other ever again.

So, after whatever the Boar King wanted was done, the body under the Varahan Mansion would be disposed of. Only he knew what he was up to. No one else knew of his existence there. Even Yarsha Zahara only knew that he was hiding a body there. Nothing else. She didn't know his hiding spot.

Virala knew about this because of the note left behind by the Boar King, which stated the timings at which he would be able to meet her. 'The closest date is in three days.'

'If I do well, I'll be able to take advantage of Yarsha Zahara. That's the only way in which I can achieve all my objectives.' He memorised the dates and picked a time period with a gap of more than ten months between the meetup times.

He then unleashed copious amounts of influence on Brana, ensuring that he wouldn't remember any of this and would forget it as a dream. But that wasn't all. For the next three days, Brana would be gathering intelligence on Virala's behalf.

And once Virala enters his body, the influence would surge. Brana would then iterate everything that happens through an Information Slip. With the Spirit Weapon of Glove Slip, they had means for information transfer on a large scale.

'I'll turn a few servants into spies too. But as I haven't been in their bodies for too long, I can't influence their actions much.' Virala thought, 'It's for the best if I don't expect much from them.'

Brana was at the Spirit Stage and didn't have a Nature. Hence, influencing him was the easiest. Besides, Virala was in his body for close to three days. That was enough for his Mystic Grade Nature to influence Brana enough.

Of course, the influence was merely temporary and would wear off in a few days. When that happens, Brana would notice the oddity and might even reveal everything that happened to Yarsha. 'I must enter him before that happens.'

Before he left, Virala looked through everything in the study, finally accessing the information about Yarsha herself, "Sumatra Gold? Such a mysterious mineral exists?"

Upon seeing how it's produced, he was stunned, 'So, that's why her Nature is at the Mystic Grade. She's building a Human Avatar out of Sumatra Gold.'

Virala read through her experimental notes, getting details of her abilities as he sighed in relief, "Thank goodness I didn't try to enter her. Otherwise, I wouldn't have even known how I was fucked."

Primary Nature—Incident Nature Reflection!

"Hahahaha, man…" Virala didn't know what to say as he could only laugh in desperation, "What a broken ability."

Once he cleaned the study of all his traces, Virala made Brana exit through the same tunnel as before. As Brana walked through the corridor, an orb jumped out of his body when he passed by a servant and entered his body.

By hopping from one body to another, Virala eventually reached the guards at the Varahan Mansion's gate. Following that, he used an excuse to walk a bit and patted a stranger, using the contact to enter his body.

"What was that about?" One of the guards asked upon seeing the guard's actions.

"I thought it was someone I knew." The guard smiled awkwardly, thinking, 'Strange, why did I wish to meet that person in the first place?'

The influence on him was to make him meet that stranger, nothing more, nothing less. Unless he wished, Virala wouldn't generate any influence on the target whose body he entered. As long as he had equipped the Nature Weapon of Leech, he could ensure the target wouldn't even sense one of their Nature slots getting filled.

The stranger continued to walk as Virala continued to jump bodies. Soon, he entered the body of a girl headed to the Karuta Hill, on a date with her boyfriend.

An hour after he left the Varahan Mansion, a carriage entered it as Wittral and Yarsha Zahara got down in a hurry, having purchased a bunch of Spirit Weapons meant for a variety of purposes, ready to deal with Loot in case they found him possessing someone.

"It took us too long to make preparations." Yarsha Zahara expressed her tension, "Let's hurry."

"Yes," Wittral nodded and followed after her.
