Infinite Mana In The Apocalypse (WN)
chapter-441

"Senior Sister, they've already given you a title of Grandmaster?"

Noah's gaze was steady as the girl in front of the door looked to be slightly taken aback as she saw him because at this moment, he had made it so that when he opened the door, he was standing in front of her with a fresh towel wrapped around his waist, another white towel on his hands as he dried his hair damp as if he has just taken a shower.

Athena looked at him as she shook her head with a smiling expression and replied.

"I've long since passed 100,000 Fate Lines, it was long overdue. I wanted to come tease my little Junior Brother about how he was lagging behind and take you with me to spar, but you don't seem all that down."

Noah smiled as he looked at where they were standing, having an expression of not wanting to be impolite as he invited Athena in.

"Please, come in and have a seat. Tell me of the perks you have now that you can be called a Grandmaster."

The expansive dwelling Noah was in could be considered an entire house, having a wide living room area and a few other separate rooms. Athena came in and sat at the exquisitely designed table as she replied.

"Not that many perks and just more responsibilities. It's just a title that many Celestials have, even the Special Existences and other beings with Noble fates that we will be facing soon holding the same title as many of them have achieved more than 100,000 lines of fate. By the way...Junior Brother Crixus, are you just expecting me to ignore the fact that you only have a towel wrapped around you this entire time we've been talking? What exactly are you trying to pull off?"

The eyes of the War Princess squinted carefully as she asked, Noah laughing as he waved his hands and changed to plain white clothing.

"I thought I would catch Senior Sister off guard by showing her something she rarely sees, but you seem as impassive as ever."

"Oh, did you expect me to jump on you the moment you took your shirt off?"

Athena replied teasingly as she looked towards Noah, this not being the first time that the senior brother and sister were bantering, their time spent together the past few weeks being abundant.

"Maybe not with my shirt, but what if I cook for you again?"

Noah asked with a smile as he went towards the kitchen and waved his hands, taking out behemoth meat that was filled with essence while looking towards the senior sister that was now looking at him with shining eyes. His food had been the one thing that caused her to speedily open up to him, being something that she never tasted before! A conflicting look appeared on her face, but not for a long as her eyes quickly regained their normal valiant look.

"Hmph, I came over here to ask you to go spar with me to celebrate my ascension to a Grandmaster, but it seems all you want to do is play around."

Noah's eyes shone the moment he heard these words, the things he foresaw playing in the proper direction as he moved in right away.

"What if we did play around, Senior Sister?"

OOOM!

Silently, essence moved as Noah activated a skill he had not utilized since he first received it, dipping his hands into one of the Seven Deadly Sins available to him- the Sin of L.u.s.t! He had never used this skill before, and even using it now on this War Princess wasn't something he would normally do, but he had to move things along as he set up the sequence of events to possibly control this being in the future.

The skill he used at this moment was the last listed ability under the Sin of L.u.s.t, it was [L.u.s.t Inducement]!

[L.u.s.t Inducement] - The user can increase the l.u.s.t other beings feel. This will make it easier for the user to manipulate said being.

Noah's eyes shone red as they glanced towards the War Princess that reflected a similar color briefly, her strict demeanor changing as she looked towards Noah and the behemoth meat ready to be cooked on the table. She seemed to think for a bit before she replied.

"I'll only stay for the food. No funny business, little junior brother."

At these words, Noah only smiled as he lit up a fire and began roasting the essence filled meat. If there was an analogy to describe what had just happened at this moment, it would be akin to a fish taking the bait, and now he was just reeling it in as on this day, he planned to initiate a scheme to bring this being with a Noble Fate under his heel.

His gaze was looking forward to a distant future when he could manipulate her as he wished to deal a decisive blow or even multiple of them in the coming war!

As his main body schemed in the Sanctum, Noah's clone was shattering the sound barrier atop Draco as they shot off in another direction that [Treasure Hunter] pointed him towards.

The mystical Celestial Realm continued to reflect on his eyes as he went forward, passing numerous Behemoths below him and finding very little flying Behemoths, these being more common near the regions where Elite Behemoths resided.

He even came across a particular Exploration Party from one of the Prime Worlds that looked to the skies in shock after hearing a booming sound, only finding embers of flames left behind.

A few hours passed in this manner, the gaze of the clone continuing to watch the golden arrow that led him to an unknown location in the Celestial Realm, where it finally began to vibrate when they neared an area filled with raging rivers, as well as an enormous waterfall that smashed down to hard blue rocks.

Draco slowed down and eventually came to a stop as the golden arrow from the Spiritual World pointed down towards the waterfall below them, the young dragon being sent away yet again as Noah began to shoot down towards this waterfall.

He couldn't feel the presence of any beasts, the only sound he heard being the roaring waves of crashing water. The rapidly vibrating arrow led him right in front of the waterfall and pointed forward, his gaze remaining firm as he floated towards it and pierced the rapid waters.

SHAAA!

A crystal blue covered his eyes as he passed through the water, his senses observing there was actually a hidden location behind this waterfall!

No beast of human was in sight as he passed through, coming into a blue glittering cavern that sn.a.k.e.d forward. The golden arrow from the Spiritual World continued to vibrate faster as he went further in, the hidden space opening up in front of his eyes until he came into a much wider clearing where a pool of extremely crystalline blue water peacefully laid. Near this mystical pool of water, an ancient pedestal that held a huge blue crystal could be seen.

Noah smiled as his eyes landed on the pedestal, but in front of his gaze, it was shockingly two descriptions that came up, one from the essence-abundant pool of water, and the other from the pedestal!
