The Bored Immortal

"Blessing me?" Viktor found it a bit surreal, but he saw what happened in Umilia's memories. He wondered if he got chosen because his past self was proficient in using Void Force.

But then he looked at the two long swords dug into the floor and instinctively pulled them out, letting out a metallic echo that made the others hold their breath.

"These swords…can I take them?" Viktor asked with a glazed look as he felt his soul resonating with these two swords. It was like meeting a long-lost lover. They also looked eerily similar to the swords he had in his past, which he had seen in the fragments of memories he received as a vision.

There were mystical black engravings on it, which he could surprisingly read and understand,

[ Everything will collapse into the Void…The power of the Void can only exist in a place where there is no darkness nor light, no heaven nor hell, no chaos nor order…Reach that place, and you shall become one with the Void…]

These words were exactly the same ones that echoed in his head right before he died. But if these swords felt so familiar to him, how come the Nameless Knight had these swords? Could it be…'Nah, that can't be right…How could I…' Viktor was confused about a lot of things, especially after looking at these swords.

"Those are the Divine Voidbringers. So, of course, they are yours since they have deemed you worthy already. Dark Phoenix was mistaken about a very important thing," Chief Tamo said with a subtle smile that pulled the attention of the others, including Aelita.

"What was that?" Viktor asked with one of his brows raised.

Chief Tamo raised the Void Ring and said, "He thought the Void Ring was the treasure that was suppressing odic force. But the truth couldn't be further since it was actually the Divine Voidbringers that were suppressing odic force in this entire place."

Aelita's lips parted in surprise as she never expected the true, powerful treasure to be hidden within the statue of the Nameless Knight.

"So this ring is fake?" Viktor asked and wondered if this was the reason why nothing happened when Taya wore it. But then, how come Dark Phoenix managed to use his flames after wearing it?

Chief Tamo shook his head with a smile and said, "No. The Void Ring is an ancient treasure as well, but it is only meant to complement the one who wields the Divine Voidbringers. In your case, if you wear this ring while wielding those divine swords, then you can use your odic force without getting suppressed by your own blades. This was how Dark Phoenix managed to use his dark flames, though he seemed to misunderstand what it was really doing. That is why you have to take this ring."

Viktor was astonished since by using these swords and wearing the ring, he could practically be unstoppable against any odic force user. He can simply suppress them while using his Void or Odic force to easily defeat them.

He nodded and received the ring from Chief Tamo before slowly sliding it onto his finger.

"So with all these powerful treasures…no odic force user stands a chance against me?" Viktor asked as he caressed the ring.

Chief Tamo squinted his eyes as he said, "The Divine Voidbringers doesn't always suppress odic force on its own. Only the one who wields them can activate their power. Why don't you give it a try and see for yourself?" He asked with a respectful bow.

Viktor pulled together his brows as he lifted both the swords completely and felt they were quite heavier than any other sword he had picked up in his life.

He could feel Umilia's odic force, which meant his Divine Voidbringers' special power of suppressing odic force wasn't active.

He closed his eyes and channeled his Void Force into the swords and could feel a subtle, strong vibration coming from both swords.

Umilia grimaced slightly as she saw the dark purple swords beginning to slowly glow and could feel her odic force staggering as if in fear of something.

Taya saw Umilia acting a bit strange and looked on with a stupefied look after imagining how dangerous Viktor can be to those who use odic force now that he can suppress others like this.

"Nngh…" Viktor grunted as drops of sweat trickled down his temple. He couldn't believe how taxing it seemed to keep feeding these hungry swords. Just a few seconds passed, and he was already feeling like most of his energy was sucked out.

"Haaa! I couldn't hold on longer…" Viktor panted as suddenly the Voidbringers turned into dark purple mist and seeped into his body.

It was only a few seconds, and yet he was already feeling exhausted. He could only wonder how much power the Nameless Knight imbued in these swords to cause suppression over the entire temple for all these centuries.

"The swords…where did it go…" Viktor was surprised upon seeing them turn into a mist and go inside his body.

"The divine swords, you can only manifest them as long as you have enough void force in your body," Chief Tamo said after seeing his confused look, making Viktor nod in understanding.

However, after seeing Viktor draw the divine power of the swords before getting tired, Chief Tamo couldn't help but comment, "Your prowess is…Magnificent…As expected from the Chosen One. There is no need to be disheartened. In a battle, even just a second can turn the tables. Yet you managed to feed your power to these divine swords for a few seconds. None of us would ever even dream of such feats…No mortal would dare to…" Chief Tamo said with an overwhelmed look, as even he couldn't fathom the heights this man could reach.

Viktor softly chuckled, feeling that this old man was probably overdoing it a bit with the praises, but he had no idea that Chief Tamo's shock wasn't unfounded.

"Wait…where did Death Queen go? She almost…" Viktor narrowed his eyes as he looked around. He wanted to teach her a lesson after what she tried to do to his woman.

Umilia sighed with a disappointed look as she looked at the last place Death Queen was seen falling, "She escaped…She must have taken advantage of the distraction Dark Phoenix caused to run away. This could be bad, especially since Dark Phoenix isn't dead as well."
