Twin Reincarnation: Epics Of The Worldline

Chapter 226 226 New abilities

[Lucy's POV: ]

"Anna, can you go see where that bastard went? Please bring him back when you fine him. He's not even answering to my words anymore."

[[ Okay~! ]]

She flew ahead at her request with another cheerful smile and I looked back at the status messages popping up before me.

"He is mass hunting El. Isnt't that good for us?"

"Tsk. Bastard. Fucking bastard…"

"Haaaa. You care about him too much, El."

There was a very good advantage of having a familiar, the masters obtained some bonus experience points when the familiars hunts the creatures all by themselves. And, since she and I were in a party with the exp. distribution set on equal, I was getting experience points just by walking around the place.

'We had entered this ant nest and there sure used to be a lot of ants present in here when we were outside however, after she pissed Cary off and he came in here, he indiscriminately slaughtered everything that existed in here.

He did not need to see his target to kill them, he was teh ruler of Mana and every being possessed Mana. He can tell what kind and type of creature was present in his range along with their power levels. He was amazing when it came to his things even though he was useless in my kitchen.

He was just too strong even with his stats fallen to what they currently were. He was the best weapon of chaos if I said so myself. And she had pissed off a force of nature like him.

Perhaps only the boss monster of this dungeon will be able to deal with him now…

'Not that we can let him kill that bitch. We need content. We were streaming right now.'

But since Anna went after him, I know she will bring him back. She could do anything she wanted, including calming down a dragonlord and forcefully bringing him here against his will.

He might be amazing, but she was far better than him when it came to everything other than pure destruction and chaos… and perhaps a few other thingsl.

[Ding!]

[Level up!]

[You are now (Level-120).]

"Oh, would you look at this?"

We were already (Level-119) when we entered this structure, but we hit the next level after only walking for a few minutes. How amazing was this~?

"Don't be happy like that, bastard. I feel uneasy."

"Haha, I told you he will be fine-"

-Ba-dum!

My heart suddenly started beating faster as soon as an uneasy feeling clouded my heart.

"W-what is…"

It got painful, my heart was almost burning with this strange pain, and I can tell El was feeling the same kind of pain.

"Aghhhh!"

Soon, it escalated to so much more that by the time Anna was back with Cary trapped in a bubble of fire, the two of us were laying flat on the ground, a cloud shrouding our face with only a blue status windows present before our eyes.

============

[Ding!]

[Level requirements reached.]

[A new ability is blooming in Innate Skill: Red crown.]

[Innate skill: Red crown is attempting its First Awakening!]

============

Every part was my body was aching, especially my heart and mind.

It felt like all the Mana in my body was going to explode at any moment, it was getting difficult to even breath, but thanks to a familiar warmth, we were able to fight against this strange pain.

This was the first time in this life that we were feeling something so strange. Something that was caused by innate factions instead of some outside influence.

Perhaps our innate skills that were evolving into something new were doing this, or perhaps it was something entire else…

Perhaps we were receiving the heavenly punishment for killing so many of these ants, or, perhaps something unthinkable had happened.

I did not know…

All I could think of right now, was the pain that I was enduring. And, if I was feeling bad, I wondered just what kind of pain she might be enduring with that weaker mental body of hers.

Was she alright?

Was she crying?

What was she doing right now?

Questions continued passing through my mind, but, the pain continued…

*

[ "Hehe… ▼▼▼▼ he is ▼▼▼ right? Hehe, and look, her eyes ▼▼▼▼ just like you~." ]

I don't know what happened to me after we passed out in the ant nest.

[ "His eyes ▼▼▼ grandfather. But he looks more like you ▼▼▼▼▼▼" ]

Or, I don't know what was happening to me at the moment.

[ "They are made for each other ▼▼▼▼." ]

[ "Strong, healthy, special… ▼▼▼ bastards. ▼▼▼▼ ▼▼▼ ▼ ▼▼▼▼ fucking bastards." ]

I was hearing some strange voices that felt strangely familiar for some reason, even though they were talking in some unknown language.

I could feel them, the warmth they had.

I could see a faint outline of two figures however… that was it.

[ "Darling, can't we ▼▼▼▼" ]

One of the voices was undoubtedly female, however, it possessed a kind of power that was difficult to put into tangible words.

[ "▼▼▼▼ we can not ▼▼▼." ]

The other voice, it was difficult to describe as male or female. It almost felt like the voice of that ethereal almighty that a devotee prayed to hear for their entire lifetimes.

It was strange… everything was strange… what is happening here?!

[ "This is the only ▼▼▼▼." ]

[ "…" ]

That strange voice said something and, the other voice did not reply to him.

They just stayed silent for a moment, and, after a while, I felt a strand touch on my forehead.

A strange touch…

Perhaps touch of lips? It was weird. Very weird…

But for some reason, it all seemed familiar.

As if… as if…

[Ding!]

-Oooooooooong!

My vision blurred again, the little sensations I was feeling were gone as well, and so was my consciousness…

[ "You are ▼▼▼. Never forget that…" ]

*

[ "Looks like they are regaining consciousness! Anna, go-" ]

[ "Already on it!" ]

Hearing that voice was enough for me to know I had returned to where I was before all that happened.

[ "Free them first you dummy!" ]

[ "One is doing what one needs to do!" ]

I still couldn't move my body, but, it was perhaps the result of the restrictions Anna might have used to examine us and keep our bodies safe.

She was very thorough with what she did, so, I had no doubt she had taken care of everything perfectly after we lost consciousness this time as well.

But, what was going on right now? Why can't I see anything?

Perhaps there was something wrapped around my eyes… wait, something like a cloth or bandage or something was wrapped all around my head right now!

[ "Anna! What is happening?!" ]

[[ Ahhhh! Master!!! Master is finally awake!! ]]

Finally?

What did she mean by that?

[[ Just a moment, master! One is getting you two out of that thing! ]]

She was doing something, I can hear things happening around me now that my senses were slowly coming back.

But, what were they doing right now?

[[ Masterrrrrrrr! ]]

Anna removed the things wrapped around me soon and before even giving me any moment to stabilise, my little familiar hugged me tightly.

"Haaaaa…"

I could see this place was pretty much the same as we had left it, so not long should have passed. There were still fresh corpses here as well so, things weren't out of place yet.

We entered the dungeon at dawn, so, this seems to be evening or something, which is good.

El was right beside me as well, sitting there with Cary hugging her the same way my Anna was doing.

The two of them seemed to be a little too worried about this whole thing when there was no need to.

We were pretty fine, nothing really seemd to have changed in us at all.

We were feeling out of strength, certainly, but perhaps it was because of the energy that was used in that weird process that we felt like this.

However, the energy and strength on one side, my eyes seems to have improved. I can almost see the details of Anna's feathers that I couldn't perceive before.

This was… quite pretty as well. I never knew Anna had such nice feathers.

[ "Lucy…" ]

El called me with her voice sounding weak.

She looked pretty and fine though so, there didn't seem to be anything to worry about this… wait.

[ "Three weeks have passed, bastard." ]

[ "Fuck… look at your crown skill." ]

[ "I already did. This is fucked up." ]

I did not realise this before but now that i was looking it closely, the corpses around us were too fresh, as if they had been dealt with no more than a few minutes ago.

The markings were the same so it was obvious Cary killed them, but, the things he killed were the elite Devilants instead of the normal ones that filled this place before we lost consciousness.

I knew something was a mess here, but, three weeks in this dungeon where time flowed weirdly?

And above all else…
