Dimension Game Empire Chapter 185

The instant that ray of light entered his body, Xia Yan could feel the drastic changes occurring within him. The light flowed into Xia Yan’s consciousness sea, and the mental power that had been depleted due to the use of the Apostle’s Cross Light was revitalized once more.

A continuous stream of newly generated mental power was developed from the depths and converted into magic through processing and refinement.

This was a key to unlocking magical talent.

The Magician’s Certificate could grant the user the method to refine magic power, along with the accompanying development and conversion effects. Its effect was not fixed, but rather related to the user’s own aptitude for magic.

Although Xia Yan did not have the powerful and burly body of an Apostle, the nature of his soul, or rather his status, was gradually approaching that of a higher life form like an ‘Apostle’. The virtual panel calculated it to be sixty-five percent.

The soul and mental power of an Apostle naturally possessed unique qualities.

Otherwise, the Apostle’s unique AT Field would not have been born.

Xia Yan, who had just entered the gate of magic, did not know how strong the potential contained in this soul was, or how efficient the mental power was when refined into magic power.

The only thing he understood was that the amount of magic power he possessed now was definitely not something an ordinary magic apprentice could have.

The vast energy developed from his consciousness gushed out continuously, flowing through his entire body. Magic power rhythmically pulsed through Xia Yan’s body, and a warm feeling emerged throughout his body.

This was transforming Xia Yan’s body, converting it into a form that was compatible with magic power.

The human body itself was not adapted to magic power. Only through special methods of transformation and adaptation could one control magic power and become a magician.

Although Xia Yan had obtained something similar to the ‘Fruit of Life’, which made the nature of his soul increasingly close to that of an Apostle, and his body had been changed along with it.

But in essence, his body was still human.

Immersed in this feeling, Xia Yan had no idea how much time had passed. It was not until the effect of the Magician’s Certificate ended and the warm sensation surrounding his body suddenly stopped that Xia Yan regained his senses with lingering satisfaction.

His mind was a little tired.

This was probably a side effect of each refinement. If he had chosen life force conversion and refinement, his body would have felt sore and weak.

Itsumi, who had arrived on the roof at some point, saw Xia Yan wake up and greeted him with a slight smile. And Ais, who was next to Itsumi, widened her eyes slightly, looking a little surprised, and stared at the strangeness on Xia Yan’s body.

“This is… magic power?”

Xia Yan stretched out his hand, and he could feel an energy within his body. He subconsciously guided this energy, releasing a little bit of it to the surface of his body.

However, even though Xia Yan only guided out a little bit of magic power, the energy in his body seemed to be like a reckless child, suddenly boiling and erupting, surging onto the surface of Xia Yan’s body.

Instantly, a faint blue light emanated from Xia Yan’s entire body.

Puchi—

The floor he was standing on suddenly cracked due to the burst of energy, and the cracks continued to spread across the ground. And the gravel born from the cracks floated up as if defying gravity.

“As expected…”

Xia Yan looked at the overflowing magic power on his body with a wry smile, obviously he could not control this newly generated energy well.

Fortunately, he still had five months to strengthen himself in this game world.

His red eyes flickered slightly, and Xia Yan looked at the setting sun. Under the setting sun, the golden cross that originally stood on the horizon also dissipated, and on the original battlefield, there were now figures of guild members.

They were probably looking for the source of this disturbance.

Night was slowly descending.

“Let’s go, Itsumi, Ais.”

The ‘Collapse Incident’

It had been a month since it happened.

It was a riot that occurred during Orario’s annual Monster Festival.

Because of the extremely terrifying collapse crater and the strange cross beam, all kinds of novel and strange events made the guild and the gods of many Familia feel curious and excited.

Among them, the most notable thing in the riot.

Was the news of the death of three elite adventurers belonging to the 『Loki Familia』.

One Lv.6, one Lv.5 and a very promising new adventurer. Loki Familia, one of the two strongest Familia in Orario, could be said to have suffered a great loss of vitality.

Therefore, there was a lot of noise for a while.

Every day, guild investigators could be seen on the streets, asking people about that day. And many Familia’s adventurers, with bitter smiles, were secretly visiting everywhere. And the members of the Loki Familia looked serious.

“Damn it.”

Loki took a big gulp of wine, sitting in the tavern a little dejectedly. And in front of Loki, sat the black-haired twin-tailed loli goddess, Hestia, who was quite famous in the heavens.

If others saw these two goddesses, who had always had grudges, sitting together so harmoniously, they would definitely be very surprised.

But at this time, Hestia really didn’t have the mood to quarrel with Loki. Although she usually quarreled with Loki, the two had known each other for tens of thousands of years, and their relationship was not something that ordinary enemies could explain.

Moreover, Hestia was not in a good mood either.

The children of the Familia would definitely die earlier than her. Either from old age, or from adventure.

This was something that every god knew.

But seeing Loki being decadent because her children died, Hestia couldn’t help but think of Xia Yan in her own family. At the thought of the scene of the two parting, Hestia couldn’t help but feel depressed and took a few sips of wine.

“God Loki, God Hestia, please don’t drink anymore.”

Ryu’s face showed a helpless expression, looking at the two goddesses. Entrusted by Xia Yan, she naturally took care of the two goddesses who had been coming to the tavern every day recently.

“Although that kind of sad thing happened, please cheer up, Loki-sama.” Ryu tried to encourage her in her own way, she was not good at this kind of thing. Then, the girl looked at Hestia on the side.

“And, Hestia-sama, why are you so decadent?”

“Woo woo…”

Hestia puffed out her cheeks a little aggrievedly, and lay on the table.

Recalling Xia Yan’s actions these days.
