BXBX NOVEL Chapter 234 Journey To The Next Location
Chapter 234 Journey To The Next Location
\'I wonder how it would fare against people like Adonis or Chief Warrior Brutus.\'
The way Rey saw it, the Elemental was similar to an A-Tier Monster.
Perhaps a less powerful one, though.
"We\'re done here, but your father mentioned something about a second location." Rey spoke to Asher.
"S-second location…?"
"Yes. The abode of the second person we\'re supposed to be allied with. If they thought to attack this place, it\'s possible that they\'ll go there as well."
Rey could already tell that his entire thing was done as a calculated way to clip the wings of the three Obsidian Councilors who were excluded from Scylla\'s New Order.
\'They attacked our cargo and they attacked this place. It\'s very likely that they\'ll do something against the last family.\'
That was his line of thought.
"A-ah! That\'s true! But isn\'t it a little too late for that now? The place is quite far.\'
By far, Asher meant a few thousand miles.
\'It\'s doable…\' Rey thought to himself while shrugging.
\'I came here from the Capital in minutes. I should be able to make it there within an hour… I think.\'
His Base speed, coupled with stuff his Buffs and Teleportation made him incredibly fast.
\'It\'s a shame I can\'t just teleport there, but I guess it can\'t be helped.\'
Rey decided he would have to travel to various places in the near future in order to have several checkpoints if he wanted to go to a certain place.
"Just show me the place on the map, and tell me important landmarks. I should be able to find my way there." Rey added.
He had studied the maps of the United Human Alliance enough to practically determine the distance between multiple locations.
He had also cross-referenced the Maps with drawings or captured footage of the actual places, so he was also confident that he could spot important landmarks while flying through cities.
In essence… Rey could find his way as long as he knew where he was going.
"O-okay! It\'s in our carriage. Let\'s go there together."
"Alright then."
Rey and Asher returned to the carriage, but not before the former put out the fire that kept on raging all around him.
He also UnSummoned the Grand Fire Elemental since its use was complete.
********
[Minutes Later]
Rey floated in the air—no, more like he sped through it.
His body was properly encased in a stable barrier as he rushed through the vastness of the sky and flew at intense speeds.
He was sure that he had become much faster than an airplane from Earth at the moment, and the fact that he could maintain his speed for such a long distance made him even more satisfied in his abilities.
\'Speaking of abilities, I should probably check out my new Skills now… to pass time.\'
It would still take him about thirty minutes—maybe even more—to reach his destination.
He could do something productive in the meantime.
"Status Window."

\'Hmm? A new Non-Exclusive Skill?\' Rey was surprised to see one there.
"What\'s [Dead Calm]?"
As if waiting for him to ask the question, a System Window opened right in front of Rey, showing him what he wanted to see.

\'Ahh… I see.\'
It had been bothering Rey for some time now, but now he knew the reason why he didn\'t feel any guilt when he killed Anukus.
\'Usually, I get conflicted and hesitant, but…\' This time, Rey intentionally and mercilessly killed him.
And he truly didn\'t feel bad about it.
\'So it\'s because of this Skill. I guess I should be thankful for it.\'
Despite thinking this, Rey couldn\'t help but feel this was merely a shortcut out of dealing with the implications of what he was doing.
He was stronger than his enemies, and they were terrible people.
Killing them had to be justice.
That had been his justification going so far, but what if he encountered a slightly different situation?
What if his enemy wasn\'t pure evil, but they were in his way and he remained the stronger one?
\'This Skill will make me feel nothing even if I kill them…\'
Rey didn\'t like how things would turn out if he kept relying on such an emotional crutch.
For this night, though, he was resolved to keep it on.
There was no room for hesitation.
\'Ah… I didn\'t notice before, but my Stats all rose by 1. Must be because of the [Carnage] Skill.\'
As expected, it was a useful addition to his arsenal.
\'Now, for my new Skills…\' His eyes went to [Doppel], thus causing a new System Panel to appear in front of him.

\'So this is everything I have at my disposal at the moment…\' Rey\'s thoughts trailed.
He had his 34 old Skills and 13 new ones.
\'Out of the thirteen new ones, only three are Passive, leaving ten as Active Skills.\'
He now had to attribute them to his old Skills and their respective categories.
\'But first, I should merge the ones that need to be added to each other.\' Rey could already see a few that fit into this category.
\'[Sever] seems like a really good Skill. I\'ll merge it with the [Claw Attack] that I got from that Dragon.\'
Once Rey did so, the new Skill became [Severing Claw].
\'I should be able to create a lot more slices through the air at the same time, and I\'m sure I can release them at a faster rate.\'
It was still a B-Tier Skill, but the range and power had been greatly increased.
"I\'ll just merge [Warrior\'s Mantle] wirh [Rampage], [Great Protection Cloak], and [Superior Self]."
The result was a A-Tier Skill called [Ascended Self], which increased his Base Stats by five times.
\'This is a crazy boost! I expected a B-Tier Skill, but I\'m not surprised. They must have great synergy.\'
Rey smiled as he looked at the list of Skills he had left and he found his heart racing in excitement. It was finally time for yet another restructuring.
\'Seems I\'ve gotten a lot stronger than expected!\'
