Amon, The Legendary Overlord
chapter-198

[Congratulations to the new Champion of [Secret Realm, Kohana Toreninguki] - [Photo of Amon fighting with a scythe in hand] He is the first Champion in a thousand years!]

Those words floated alongside Amon's photo in front of everyone who remained in the Secret Realm, Kohana Toreninguki. Also, the text was written in an ancient language, and almost nobody knew what was written, however, it was easy to deduce.

The same students from the Golden Phoenix University, whom Amon's group had bumped into a little while ago, saw the message and were baffled. Norman Lecter, the leader of their group, was in his second year and was very close to creating his second Genetic Factor. Being idolized by many, he was for the first time in a long time envious and jealous of someone.

"How could he be..." Norman said quietly in shock.

The students beside him saw Norman's expression and understood that they weren't the only ones surprised. Even the genius Norman Lecter was green with envy. Of course, they didn't dare to make fun of him. After all, at the end of the day they still had to go back to the same university together. To stand against the genius of their university was to ask to suffer a lot afterward.

"He must be cheating!" one of their group screamed. Maybe in his mind, someone 'fearful' like Amon didn't deserve to be revered.

Of course, they didn't understand what was written, however, it was easy to deduce. Even the dumbest of their group understood after seeing some ancient written letters that they couldn't read, along with the image of Amon fighting while holding a created scythe power.

"Yes, he must be cheating to win the Secret Realm's grand prize!"

Maybe that was the trigger and a way for them to rationalize things. Only then did it make sense for Amon to be the highlight of the Secret Kingdom.

Norman Lecter was no fool. He knew that it was practically impossible to cheat in this Secret Realm. It was no wonder after so many years, even when it was said that even Overlord Rank beings were not able to do something like this. So, there must be some requirements, such as age and time restriction, among other things of which they were unaware. After all, there was no book with the rules to become the winner of the Secret Kingdom and win the grand prize.

Norman Lecter then said, "Let's go out and let Jordan know. Does he not have enmity with this boy? While we don't accept being Jordan's lackeys, we might well gain a few things in our favor if we reveal this!"

"Yes, that is a good idea!" Everyone agreed, or almost everyone, as some felt that this type of action was hypocritical and completely low. Of course it was, but even if they thought so, because it was Norman Lecter who said it, they didn't dare think it out loud and only reluctantly agreed.

Soon after, one by one, they began to use their return crystals.

Meanwhile, Amon, who had finished killing most of the demon cats, saw two lights flashing in front of him. He also saw the message and was able to read it, as he had learned several ancient languages ​​from his grandparents, this one among them.

"Newest Champion in a thousand years?" Amon muttered.

"Amon, are you able to understand this written language from ancient times as well?" Mabel asked in total surprise.

She had to study a lot to learn this ancient language. She was only able to learn anything from it thanks to her grandmother, but what about Amon? How did he manage to learn this ancient script?

"Mm," Amon nodded. He didn't turn around but instead reached out with an unoccupied hand and picked up what was flashing in front of him.

There were two totems - one with the appearance of an eagle measuring 30 cm and another with the appearance of a golden Buddha also measuring 30 cm. Amon saw that behind each totem, there was an open slot with enough space to imbed something inside. He automatically thought of genetic cores.

"Let's kill the rest of these demon cats and see about it later, Amon," Ariel said. She wore a rare serious expression.

Mabel was the same.

Maisa and Julia understood something, and so did Barbara. If that kind of message had appeared to everyone, they could be in danger if they were found while fighting. Someone might want to attack them, wanting to kill them and get whatever Amon had gained for becoming the Champion of the Secret Realm Kohana Toreninguki.

Putting away the two totems, Amon returned to gripping his scythe with both hands and slicing through the demon cats more efficiently. He used lightning breath, and even now that the air became surrounded with lightning elements because of his powers, Amon was able to breathe this air and become calmer and even stronger.

The girls at some point also started using their breathing spells they had gotten before. With that, although it was difficult to use while fighting, they were getting more proficient at it as time passed.

One thing they learned over their time spent in the Secret Realm Kohana Toreninguki was that being under the increased gravity made it more difficult to move; they felt as if they were wearing super heavy clothes. Of course, there were some benefits, and one of those was forcing them to learn their Breathing Spells faster. Another was the ease of opening their pores and being able to improve their genetics even while they were fighting. Some of their group had even gone up 5 levels while fighting.

When saying 5 levels, it was not just by opening blank genes. If one was counting opening blank genes they had all gained at least 7, but the 5 levels were gained entirely by filling blank genes with elementary genes.

No wonder this Secret Realm of Kohana Toreninguki was created to train its people, or at least that's what most of them deduced. If they ever had the chance to be under this gravity again to train, there was no doubt that they would continue to improve.

Almost an hour later Amon and the girls finished killing all the demon cats and dismantling them. At the same time, they sat down on the ground and began to meditate, while Amon kept watch.

They expended a lot of energy, and if they didn't stop to refuel now, they might not be able to get away when they left the Secret Realm Kohana Toreninguki.

They had talked and came to the understanding that the message had most likely reached everyone, and since no one has appeared before them so far, it means that they might be waiting for them outside.

"Amon, we have to be very careful when we go out," Mabel said as a warning and suggested, "My grandmother must be waiting outside, and when we come out, let us run towards her, seeking her protection."

Mabel was the first to finish meditating. She had elemental genetic runes which made her much faster at recharging her power.

"I know." Amon understood the gravity of the situation, no pun intended. Out of greed, people might do anything. If before some students who were geniuses of a good university still wanted to kill them for a little benefit, it was easy to predict that if someone discovered that Amon had something good or deduced that he had gained something useful by achieving something that nobody had in many years, it was not hard to deduce that they would get greedy and come for it.
