"I've been single for half my life, and now I finally have a daughter to take care of. What a pity, what a joyous occasion …"
* Boom! * * Boom! *
I really wanted to say that, but if the background was a sea of flames and I could hear explosions, then I might as well forget about it.
"It's a pity, but congratulate my sister! Isn't this girl getting too excited? "
Should I say that Cavendish and I were worthy of being twins? Our bloodlines didn't clash at all, and under Amelia's guidance, the blood exchange went quite smoothly. There were no adverse reactions that I had expected. There weren't even any allergic reactions or reactions that would normally occur with a normal blood transfusion.
Currently, a third of Grimm's bloodline had already been infused with my bloodline.
And when I faintly sensed that mystical bloodline connection, I used my will to cancel the demonization and give Glina her freedom. Glina, who had been demonized for so many years, finally took off her blindfold and walked out of her binding armor without any qualms.
Of course, it was impossible for a tumor that had already worsened to disappear naturally. Under the current conditions, it was impossible for the demonized portion to disappear. However, this girl with different-colored eyes wasn't someone who cared about others' gazes. As long as her demonic eyes weren't shining with that dim yellow evil light from the Chaos Abyss that constantly dragged her soul into Chaos, she was quite willing to take off her blindfold and show off her youthful vigor under the sunlight.
"… You're just too energetic. I only told you to clean up the rubble, not to level it."
A new city, a new street, and a new plan. Since I intended to create a mega city, then the rubble left behind by the battle would have to be cleaned up.
Originally, I had intended to be an expert in construction and slowly clean up the rubble, but Glina, who still didn't want to return to Antoon, volunteered to give this task to her. Considering that this would save me some money, I naturally didn't refuse.
Considering her past history, I had expected that she would go overboard. But since the rubble was already in ruins, going overboard would be fine. This would also allow her to vent some of the energy that she had recently gone overboard. However, it was evident that I had still underestimated her.
The old mechanical parts on the battlefield became raw materials. With her status as the Queen of Sleuweir, the remaining energy furnaces of the abandoned Titan Giants were used as raw materials. One by one, the powerful fixed point bombs were built, forming a tight explosive network. Then …
Boom!
I pressed the red button for detonation, and half of the city was sent flying into the sky. The tremendous explosion destroyed all the glass windows. The demolition that would have taken two months was completed in a single day. From a certain standpoint, I had once again underestimated Grimm's fanaticism towards explosions.
Alright, I'll admit defeat. At least it's better to find trouble with the building than with me.
From a certain standpoint, this ritual was the equivalent of establishing the strongest blood relationship possible. I didn't know how to deal with this new "adopted daughter" that suddenly appeared. It was likely that Grimm didn't know how to deal with his new "father" either.
Previously, Antoon would occasionally call me "adopted father" or something like that, and most of it was just a joke. But now, she didn't say anything at all. It was likely that she didn't even know what to call me.
"… Perhaps your way of expressing your feelings is rather unique. Even if you can't normally hug me or act spoiled, don't you think using an exploding alarm clock to wake me up is a bit too much? Waking up every day is a race against my life. If I'm any slower, I'll die, you bastard."
By the way, I should mention that after that incident, I received my System's belated "blessing" as usual.
[A daughter who isn't related to you by blood calls you father, and you're still an old virgin. You meet all the requirements. Congratulations on obtaining the achievement "Being a Happy Father" and the honorary title "King of Spare Tires". After equipping this title, it will be easier for you to obtain sympathy from women and "friendship" from men.]
This was actually quite pitiful, but as always, my System added insult to injury at lightning speed.
[— Actually, you can consider going one step further. Gather seven daughters who aren't related to you by blood and still maintain their virginity. Then, you can complete the task of raising beautiful girls. Depending on how well you complete this task, you can obtain the three epic achievements of "Being a Happy Father Lover", "Legendary King of Fathers", and "Veteran Nanny Father". Finally, you can obtain the epic title of "You're the Ultimate Good Man". This will greatly increase your friendship with women (and also greatly increase the difficulty of obtaining love). Of course, if you plan on going down the path of being a demon, don't hesitate. I still have the Onibaba series of titles that I guarantee will be powerful enough.]
"… Wahhh, I'm not the King of Spare Tires! I don't want to be a Father God!"
At that time, even I, who had long since become numb to the fact that my System had been scammed for so many years, could only helplessly lie on the ground with tears in my eyes.
[The System added insult to injury: Actually, you've basically completed this achievement. Renée, Glina, Eliza, and Anne, not to mention that it's impossible for your physical body to reach adulthood in the short term … Stop struggling. You can't resist fate. Looking at it from a different perspective, being a Legend Father God is actually quite awesome. At least, at least … Fine, the System can't find anything good about it, so I'll just directly express my sympathy and condolences to you. So many naughty children. Father God, you've worked hard.]
Where should I start commenting from? Should I start from when even the damned System admitted that it was intentionally adding insult to injury? Or should I start from when I became a Legend Father? Or should I start from when the System was so pitiful that it couldn't bear to continue commenting and instead turned around to express sympathy?
By the way, I also received another achievement on that day …
[You voluntarily ate highly poisonous food and didn't die. Congratulations to the host for obtaining the achievement 'Hungry Don't Care What You Eat.' After equipping this achievement, your appetite will be doubled, and your resistance to poison and disgusting food will be slightly increased. This series of achievements also includes' Food God – Nothing Taboo ',' We'll Eat Anything With Four Legs Apart From Chairs', 'Stargazing is So Delicious', and so on. After completing all of these, you will receive the Epic achievement 'The Man Who Stands at the Top of the Food Chain' and the Legend title 'Bay – Devourer of the Void'. Actually, with Amelia here, you could have easily achieved this.]
"Keep up the good work? Heh heh, after eating those things, I really did see the River Styx. Those bastards even said to me, 'You're here again? How long do you intend to stay here for? ' The next time I eat those things, I'll really be staying here forever! "
Fine then, let's forget about the past. Right now, the most important thing was to find someone to take revenge on.
"You're such a scammer!"
When half of the entire city went up into the sky, as the person in charge of this project, I finally managed to get rid of all the complaints and documents and deal with a large number of accidents caused by being frightened. I angrily went to find Glinna to take revenge, but the result was that before I could even complain to her face, I discovered an unexpected battle.
In an empty area, Renée and Glinna were currently fighting. Sword energy was everywhere, and explosions were everywhere. Judging from the power of the battle, it was obvious that both of them were serious.
Unlike before, the Demon Prince's bestowment was no simple one. The highest-quality Chaos Transformation gave Renée far too much power. Cavendish was worried that his descended body would mysteriously die, so he directly gave Renée a large amount of combat experience that came from her instincts. Her bug-like Soul Imprint also gave her a comprehensive increase in power. The current Renée was one of the top even among veteran Legend rank individuals.
Although she was still unable to release sword energy, Roland's Sacred Sword sliced through the air like a silver dragon. Every time she attacked, she would have the power to collapse the heavens. Her sword pressure and aura were like an ever-increasing gravity that suppressed her opponent's ability to move.
Actually, as the battle progressed, her Seal of Infinite Courage was being activated. Her power level was indeed increasing.
After the bloody battle on that snowy night, the current Knight Princess seemed to have finally obtained the Sacred Sword's recognition.
"She's even formed her own combat style? It seems that she won't be far from becoming completely independent. "
I had personally taught Renée. Although Cavendish had interfered, her growth was still within expectations. However, I was completely unable to understand Glina.
What astonished me the most was that although it seemed like Renée was in control of the battle with her Sacred Sword, and Glina had less and less space to dodge, she was actually the one in control of the battle's tempo.
Although Glina was petite and nimble without her heavy armor, she was still born with tremendous strength. She wielded a weapon in each hand. Her halberd moved like the wind, while her sword moved like lightning. They didn't interfere with each other and worked together as if they were two weapon masters working together.
"She's still only at the Gold rank? But … "
Suddenly, Glina's skirt slid down, and a round goblin grenade dropped down. The lit fuse was about to run out. Renée paused in surprise for a moment before hurriedly jumping back. However, the fuse had run out, and nothing happened.
* Boom! *
The gunpowder from Glina's Grenade Palm dissipated along with the smoke. After putting some distance between them, Glina unhesitatingly tossed away her heavy melee weapons. Now, it was time for her to use firepower. She would toss out all her muskets and explosives.
I suddenly discovered that although Glina was stuck at the Gold rank, she was definitely no ordinary Gold rank. She had reached the Master (Gold) level in both long and short weapons. She was also a Master in Engineering, and her overall strength far surpassed that of a Legend. She also had excellent piloting skills. She was a rare all-rounder.
The most important part was that she had plenty of combat experience. In front of the experienced Glina, Renée was still nothing more than a rookie. Glina completely predicted Renée's movements and attacked first, suppressing her at every turn.
Renée's attacks were relatively simple and direct, while Glina's attacks were numerous and didn't need to be repeated. Once one side figured out the other's trump cards, Glina began to use her full strength, and the battle began to turn around.
"Under normal circumstances, Glina would definitely win, but Renée has that … In the end, Renée will definitely win!"
As expected, Renée seemed to notice that I had arrived. Perhaps it was because she was unable to accept the pressure, but in the end, she still raised her Sacred Sword.
"Return, kings!"
Alright, there was no need to say anything else. The kings of Valkyrie descended, and Glina was instantly sent flying by three sword energies. The battle was over. Renée had won, and Glina was left to sulk.
That's right, three sword energies instead of one. After that battle, Roland's Sacred Sword completed its transformation into a God Equipment. There weren't many other changes, but the limit of summoning three kings of Valkyrie per day had been changed.
"You can summon four Valkyrie per day, at most three at a time. If you go all out and summon twelve kings of Valkyrie at once … you're such a scoundrel."
Renée dispelled Valkyrie, while Glina ran over to my side. Before I could even complain, she reached out her hand.
"It's mine."
I didn't know whether to laugh or cry. It turned out that Glina was quite displeased that she lost. She felt that it was unfair of me to give the Sacred Sword to Renée, so she was trying to make up for it.
"Ha, you can only blame your weapon if you can't win. How impatient."
"In that case, Renée, throw down your Sacred Sword, and we'll fight again."
"Hmph, why wouldn't I use the God Equipment I have? If you're displeased, go ask Roland for his God Equipment …"
As she said that, she began to laugh. God Equipment was something that could only be found by luck. Even she didn't believe that Roland had any more.
"I do have some, and I was just about to give it to you."
As I said such inconceivable words, I stuffed a black dagger into Glina's hands.
"I'll give this God Equipment to protect you, but you definitely can't let anyone know about it, and you definitely can't use it to harm your friends. Otherwise, you'll regret it."
…
[Felix's Remorse. Dagger. God Equipment.]
[Attack power: 1-3. Choose one of the following four special effects for each attack. The dagger's blade will be infused with the corresponding light.]
[Divine Right. Nature's End: Anyone struck by this dagger will be infused with aging poison. No matter if it's a living creature or a plant, even if it's a rock, it will reach the end of its lifespan in advance (green light).]
[Divine Right. Life Distortion: When this effect is activated, the target will be infused with a strange hormone, causing them to mutate for a short period of time, changing their form and species. There is a 10% chance that it will be a beneficial mutation, causing them to become even stronger. There is a 30% chance that it will be a harmful mutation, causing them to become weaker. The rest is an insignificant mutation. (red light).]
[Divine Right. Poison God's Hatred: When this effect is activated, the target will be infused with an incurable mixture of poisons, causing them to fall into eternal slumber (black light).]
[Divine Right. Felix's Redemption: When this effect is activated, the target will be infused with an antidote. All three of the above effects will be dispelled. However, the prerequisite for this is that the first three effects must be activated.]
[There's a line of yellow words on the back of the dagger: My dagger is covered in fatal poison! Lick … ah, it's poisonous!]
This was an ordinary-looking black iron dagger. It was so simple and unadorned that even a novice thief wouldn't be interested in it. However, it was indeed a God Equipment.
Felix, who had devoured the Forest Guardian God's divine power, had immediately died as soon as he ascended to the Divine Throne. The divine power he left behind had been transformed by the System into this poisonous dagger, which was also the greatest spoil of victory in this Divine War.
I had done experiments before. When the green light's Natural End effect was activated, plants would instantly die, while animals would become middle-aged with one slash, old with two slashes, and die of old age with three slashes.
The red light's mutation was even worse. There was a normal chance of a mutation occurring, which was a complete mutation of a species. I personally witnessed a mutated white rabbit swallow a wild boar in one gulp. The black light, which was the most fatal of all, was simple. One slash and the target would fall into eternal slumber.
As for the only antidote, White Redemption, it required at least three sacrifices in order to be used. It required at least three lives to save one person.
"As expected of a God Equipment, but …"
"What's the meaning of this attack power that's even weaker than a fruit knife's? In order to inject poison into the dagger, it should at least break the skin. How can such a blunt knife cut through my defense? "
I lightly sliced my arm with this dagger, but I didn't feel anything at all. My Titan Body was directly immune to this bit of damage. And if I didn't see any blood, this God Equipment dagger would be no different from a fruit knife.
Normally speaking, powerful SemiGod Equipment and God Equipment would all have very troublesome side effects. Perhaps this blunt knife itself was a type of limitation, which was why this God Equipment had such a troublesome God Equipment Curse attached to it.
However, its sharpness, which couldn't even pierce through leather armor, limited its usage.
"There's no need to think about direct combat, but it's a good item for sneak attacks. If it's Glina, she should be able to use it to its fullest potential. "
Glina kept nodding her head after obtaining the God Equipment dagger. Her icy little face finally started to smile, and that instant pure smile was incredibly cute. She then turned around and started showing off to Renée, as if she had obtained some important victory.
However, this wasn't the time to be wasting time. I had more important matters to attend to.
"Get ready. The disaster relief team has already been assembled. Let's go to the elves together!"
