I'll Surpass The MC

456 Orakha Admits Defeat

'Is this really how it ends?' Gannala frowned as she accessed the information in a Bone Slip delivered by an Empyrean Zinger. 'The Boar King didn't do anything until the end.'

'Virala has been captured by the Brimgan Emperor. I'm not sure what he's planning. But it's not possible to observe what he has up his sleeves anymore.' She then relayed Inala's thoughts to the Empyrean Zinger before her, "Spy on the Boar King. His actions make no sense. I fear he's planning something dangerous."

Gannala released a few hundred more Empyrean Zingers to aid in the operation, ensuring that with such numbers, at least a few would remain alive until Inala's return to the Brimgan Empire.

Following that, she began to make her exit, leaving the Brimgan Empire by making a tunnel through the Lotus Range at the same spot as her entry. She closed the tunnel upon exiting it and headed into the wilds.

Soon, she entered a forest and relied upon Inala's instructions to capture an Enran. Following that, she extracted the Nature Weapon of Tunnel from the body she was inhabiting, stored the Nature Weapon in her stomach biome, and killed the body.

Then, she entered the Enran's body and equipped herself to its Tertiary Nature slot. As she unleashed her influence, the Enran struggled as its mind was gradually overridden by Gannala.

The process concluded after a week as the Enran's mind was fully moulded into Gannala's, allowing her to control the body without issues. After all, the influence was perfect now. Meaning, the moment Gannala has a thought, the influence would make the body perform the necessary action in real time. There wouldn't be any delays.

Tertiary Nature—Cultivator!

The Enran's body morphed into a human, wore a set of clothes, and began to travel through the wilds, equipping a bunch of Satellites and Comets as Spirit Weapons. Moreover, unlike the Satellites and Comets created by regular Enrans, the ones carried by Gannala were infused with Internal Inertial Gravity, making them dozens of times more potent.

Moreover, with Silver Grade strength, the Enran's body had sufficient Prana to take action in a fight without much issues. Its Spirit Container was also robust enough for Gannala to supply Prana into. It was why she picked the Enran.

It was the perfect creature to travel the wilds with. Its Satellites would consciously protect the body from sneak attacks. It was the same as having multiple creatures protecting her. Satellites were economical too.

Moreover, with the Prana generation capabilities of an Empyrean Tusk, having a few dozen Satellites and maintaining their expenditure was extremely simple. For any unforeseen situation, the Comets will come in handy.

Best of all, the Enran was only a Silver Grade Pranic Beast. Hence, even if it barges into a Pranic Beast territory, the retaliation wouldn't be as severe as in the case of a Gold Grade Pranic Beast's intrusion.

Once she obtained the Secondary Nature of Weaponisation, Gannala's plans began to change. Instead of fighting on her own, she could now assume Nature Weapon form and equip herself onto the Nature Slot of someone else.

That way, the target would be able to employ their original Natures, plus her Natures, becoming an absolute powerhouse.

Thereby, the direction of her growth would be to equip herself onto a target and work on influencing and controlling the target with enough speed and efficiency to be effective in a battle against the Boar King, her ultimate goal.

In the future, Gannala intended to equip herself into the Tertiary Nature slots of powerful Mutated Gold Grade Pranic Beasts such as the Millingers. Once she progresses through the Life Stage, Gannala will be able to control more such Pranic Beasts and become an army of powerhouses on her own.

Hence, she planned to gain as much experience as possible. In the original plan, Gannala was supposed to stay in the Brimgan Empire and develop herself as a regular citizen by going to an Academy, studying, and having a social life.

Even after she gained the Secondary Nature of Weaponisation, that plan remained unchanged. But when Virala struck at the Karuta Hill, even though Inala was careful, a lot of mess had happened.

Moreover, Virala had encountered Gannala and Asaeya before. As long as he thinks a bit, he will be able to analyse the entire picture. With his smarts, that was guaranteed. And to prevent being influenced by Gannala, he was bound to make plans for her death.

As long as he reveals anything to the Boar King, Gannala's life will be in danger. It was unknown as to what extent the identity of Loot could veil everything and prevent the Boar King from knowing the truth.

Hence, since there was a considerable risk, Gannala was better off leaving the Brimgan Empire. As long as she hides in a Nature slot, it wouldn't be possible for the Boar King to detect her, especially since he had no idea about Gannala's Prana signature.

Gannala's Prana signature was different from the Supreme Tusk Gannala. So, that was a saving grace.

'Dad, even though it might seem like my thoughts, they are all yours. I'm merely reading your thoughts and making it seem as if they are mine, since I'm allowing them to influence my thought process.' Gannala thought, impressed by the way Inala's mind worked.

Seated in her stomach biome, Inala began to process the current events alongside the arsenal of information at his disposal, making plans accordingly. Even though Gannala had a mind vastly more robust than Inala, she couldn't analyse the full picture as clearly as him.

Her mind was like a car whereas Inala's was like a bicycle. But the difference stemmed from the fact that Inala knew how to ride his cycle at its fastest while Gannala's car moved at a snail's pace, even though it was capable of a lot more.

'Dad can harness the full extent of his capabilities.' Gannala thought in awe as she began to head farther away from the Brimgan Empire, travelling through a route that would lead her to the Dieng Canyon.

From the Dieng Canyon to the Sanrey Plains, and then the Dralh Sea. Finally, she would return to the Brimgan Empire a year before the Second Major Disaster. That was the travel plan. And by the end of these nine years, Inala's preparations would be complete, though the important details of it were hidden from her.

"Hah…!" Orakha floated on the water of a Northern Lake and stared at the sky in a daze, "I'm a retard."

Before he could attack Virala, the latter blew him away casually. The instantaneous response by Virala easily surpassed his plans, making him gloomy, 'Even though I'm strong, I have only been fighting strong Pranic Beasts. I haven't faced anyone as cunning as Virala, that's why I failed to accomplish shit.'

'The same thing happened with Inala at the Guna Caves.' He sighed. The careful plans he had weaved were instantly destroyed by Inala in a matter of seconds. Not only were his plans foiled, but Inala created an opening for Gannala to touch him and access all his memories.

Armed with all of Orakha's memories, Inala was able to play him like a fiddle. Similarly, in today's situation, even though Orakha had a solid plan, Virala was able to instantly think of a counter and remove him from the stage.

'How am I supposed to bridge this gap?' Orakha thought in frustration, 'If things proceed in this fashion, all the Major Treasures would be split between Inala and Virala. These two are just built different.'

"I need to pick up the slack." Gritting his teeth, Orakha got up and stared at the figure of Wittral walking along the shore farther away, 'He is the same Wittral from Sumatra Chronicles. Until now, I have been a frequent customer at his tea house, but despite that, I failed to recognise him. No, I glossed over the possibility just because he's grown hair and a moustache.'

"I'm lacking in many areas." He sighed and got up, returning to Fentan City with slumped shoulders, "I need to become more cunning."
