Chapter 809 - Men, World, Order (1/2)
After a while, Theo finally raised his head and opened his eyes. ”Magic Bullet prevents me from using another skill since, unlike normal bullets, I don't shoot those Magic Bullets simply because it's the core of the God Killing Spear.
”However, if I sacrifice the Magic Bullets, I can use Death Avatar. It's true that the God Killing Spear won't be as powerful as before, but I can add versatility and momentum into it. I can throw that spear or have the Death Avatar wield it.”
Hel smiled. ”That's basically how it is. Your Control will continuously grow, and making other forms will improve your Control too. So, I want you to be ready to remove your Magic Bullet.”
”Understood.” Theo agreed with her advice since it was understandable. ”Now that I think about it, my Magic Bullet might be more suitable to be removed than the Illusion Construct. Even though my Illusion Construct can be replaced by Illusion Manipulation, the latter can only affect a target. I need to release more power to affect multiple targets. Meanwhile, Illusion Construct will appear in everyone's eyes without the need to influence them.”
”Your choice. Moving on to the third piece of advice…” Hel raised three fingers. ”I'm going to explain something about Order to you.”
”Yes. This is what I've been waiting for.” Theo smiled.
”No need to be that excited.” Hel released her power and formed three black figures on her palm. The figures were none other than a doll, a bridge, and a ball. ”These three represent people, Order, and the world.”
Theo's expression turned serious as he listened attentively, not wanting to leave a single detail.
”The world releases its power in the form of Order. It gives birth to everything you need such as life, death, soul, plants, soil, and so on.
”However, the world can't create all this stuff on their own. They are only the source, not the means. What should they do in order to create a world suitable for living?” Hel asked.
Theo pointed at the doll. ”Us.”
”Yes. They're using us to create a suitable place. Unlike other people, their job is the hardest and bound by many rules. However, they still receive the recognition worthy of their job… We call them God or Goddess of Creation. The mother or father of all. They're the primordial being, the beginning of an era.”
Suddenly, the doll and the ball stuck to the bridge as Hel explained, ”After the world is created, there will be people in charge of maintaining the balance of the world, so they don't collapse.
”They are those who hold Authority. As expected, no matter how powerful they are, they won't be able to handle the Creator's burden. So, they require more people to maintain it… The degraded version of Authority… We call them Order.
”Still, no matter what we call them, they're still a bridge that connects us to the world itself.
”When you possess an Order or Authority, that means the world has entrusted you with the task to maintain the balance of this world, making sure it's not destroyed.
”Just like in the goblin incident, you need to do what your grandfather did too if you have an Order in the future. Of course, the world doesn't assign you a task without giving a proper reward.
”The energy from the world is flowing through the bridge, and in this bridge, they're being contaminated with your Order, making your own Magic Power associated with the Order.
”Even though I said it was contaminated, there's nothing but benefits… For example, I have Death Authority and my Magic Power turns into Death Magic Power. It reinforces my power by several folds.
”It's better for you to experience the difference in power between the normal Magic Power and 'Order' Magic Power. Also, you're able to alter your Order… Hmm, how should I say this… You have the ability to alter the law of this world yourself.
