Entering Apocalypse in Easy-Mode

257 Another Impossible Feat



He let out a long breath as he gazed up at the sky, which remained filled with the chaotic storm of Mana from his battle with God Kane just a moment ago. 

[You Leveled Up! ]

[You Leveled Up! ]

[You Leveled Up! ]

...

Clyde gets a notification that he has leveled up ten times in total. He grinned. It was natural because he had killed e Celestial.

Clyde looked down and saw the lifeless body of the Celestial, his form mangled and crushed, a testament to the ferocity of the battle. He deactivated [Title] and all of his [Skills]. It was then that Clyde just felt fatigued in his body. However, the fatigue wasn't enough to make him feel weak. If the situation is needed, he can still fight again.

[ Congratulations! You have accomplished an impossible feat! ]

[ Title: Limit Breaker (Lv.1 > Lv.2)

[ You have killed a Celestial. ]

[ New Title Unlocked: The One Who Killed Celestial (Lv.1) ]

[ Title Effect: (+5) all Stats when fighting a Celestial, grants you resistance (Lv.1) against the power and influence of Celestials. ]

Clyde felt once again as another surge of power flowed through his body. He laughed loudly enjoying his victory. But apparently, it wasn't finished, a few seconds later Clyde got another notification saying that he had gotten the power from God Kane.

[ You have killed a God of Light, nature, and creation, Kane. You get his power. ]

[ Your body is still not strong enough to use the full potential of a Celestial power. ]

[ The Celestial power that is in your body can only be used up to 50% ]

'Oh, it wasn't that bad after all.'

Clyde thought that he would only be able to use about ten percent of the Celestial power he got. But it turns out he can use it up to 50% which is a lot considering this is the power of a Celestial.

'Now there is one thing left to do.'

Clyde felt that his stamina, health, and Mana had begun to regenerate due to the new powers he had obtained. Because of that, he felt that he could go back and look for Goddess Pele who had set him up. 

'Can I fly now?'

Clyde tried to make his body float like God Kane. Turns out, he could do that easily almost as if the ability was naturally present in his body.

Clyde flew forward to take God Kane's gold staff which had been broken in half and put it into his Inventory. Then he flew higher to figure out exactly where he was now.

Clyde couldn't find a clue because this place looked different. There were more dense forests surrounding it, unlike Goddess Pele's domain where there were lots of clearings.

So he chose the easier way. He called Goddess Pele directly through his telepathy.

'Take me back to where I am.'

~~~

In her place, Goddess Pele jumped in surprise when she heard Clyde's voice in her head. She had known that God Kane had died at Clyde's hands and she had been crying for a few seconds after realizing that. 

She was also sure that the other Celestials in their respective places also felt the shockwave because of God Kane's death.

After all this time no one had managed to interfere with the Celestials' position as the strongest beings in the multiverses. However, everything changed from now on.

'Did you hear me?'

"Arrghhh!!!"

Goddess Pele groans at her place - in the volcano where she had led Clyde into her trap. She groaned with a pained expression because her head felt like it was being stabbed with hundreds of needles continuously. All of that is happening because Clyde willed it.

'Yes, I-I hear... You... P-Please s-stop...'

The pain stopped, for now. Goddess Pele immediately obeyed her orders before Clyde decided to torture her again.

Moments later, Clyde reappeared at the same spot where he had vanished before. Goddess Pele's gaze met him, taking in his torn and tattered clothes, a visible sign of the intense struggle. Clyde looked at her with a stiff face, he didn't look happy. 

"You set me up," Clyde said in a cold, even voice. It gives chills to Goddess Pele's spine.

Goddess Pele did not answer. She just looked down and hoped Clyde didn't kill her too.

She heard Clyde sigh. Clyde said. "But, it turned out to be a good thing. I managed to kill him and get new powers. So, I can forgive you."

Clyde looked at the Celestial who looked scared in front of him. It made him feel immeasurably satisfied. One of the most powerful beings bowed before him who was originally an ordinary human.

"Do you have another plan to kill me?" Clyde asked. He of course didn't ask that just to get an answer. He asked to confirm that no matter what Goddess Pele thinks hurting him will only end in vain. Even she could have given Clyde new powers like what happened now.

"No," the Goddess replied in a low voice.

"Good." Clyde nodded. "Now show me the path."

Goddess Pele immediately stood up because she didn't want to feel Clyde's torture anymore if she didn't move. The Goddess swallowed her sadness and guilt because she was the one who caused God Kane to be killed to face Clyde.

She walked towards the plain black slab of stone with a stiff face, pressed her hand then channeled her Mana into the stone. Not long after, the stone turned into a white and black vortex.

Clyde could feel another strong source of power from within the vortex. Which makes him sure that this is indeed the path to the Nexus of Creation.

Clyde wanted to step inside immediately but his gut feeling told him that what he would encounter inside was not something he could handle in his current condition. So he decided to retreat for now.

"I'll be back later. Keep the path open," Clyde said in a firm tone to Goddess Pele. "Don't even think about saying anything about what happened to the other Celestials. Shut down access to entry and exit from my domain. Do you understand?"

Goddess Pele nodded.

"And one more thing. You should keep finding out about God Loki and the details of his domain."

After he said that Clyde grabbed his green stone amulet and broke it. Clyde's body split into particles of green light and then disappeared from there.

After Clyde disappeared Goddess Pele slumped to the ground and started weeping. Alone in this volcano lamenting her sadness and guilt.

Clyde reappears in Hammer's private room. This time he was not alone. Hammer was there with Maethion. The two of them seemed to be having small talk, but Clyde's appearance made them jump from their seats together.

"Clydes!" Hammer exclaimed, his eyes wide staring at Clyde's state. "What happened to you?"

Maethion frowned, looking at Clyde through his glasses. 'He looks like he just had a serious fight. I've never seen him battered like this.'

Clyde sighed then threw himself on the last remaining chair in the room. He said. "I've got the path's location and how to access it."

"I think you need to go to the infirmary now, Clyde," Hammer said.

Clyde shook his head. "I'm fine. It's just my clothes are torn and I'm a little tired."

Hammer and Maethion studied Clyde's clothes. Through the holes and tears in his clothes, they could see that there really weren't any wounds on his skin. However, all the armor he was wearing had been destroyed, all leaving a bit of fabric that was at least enough to cover his body.

Something clearly happened. Hammer knew how strong the armor he had created for Clyde was. Seeing all of his armor destroyed indicated that Clyde had just fought a very strong opponent.

"You got the path? How?" Maethion asked.

"I fought the Celestials guarding the path."

It answered all the questions the two of them had about what happened to the armor and clothes. Hearing that made Hammer let out a soft gasp.

"You fought Celestials?!" For Hammer, it was something unimaginable.

However, Maethion didn't feel too shocked by that because he had expected it.

"You beat her? Goddess Pele?" Maethion asked.

Hammer turned with wide eyes at the Elf. Then turned back to Clyde to hear his answer.

"Yes," Clyde answered simply. "I have no choice."

That answer made Hammer even more shocked that he had to sit back down because he couldn't support his own body. Clyde just fought a Celestial and not only that. He also beat her.

Maethion stared at Clyde silently. Her hunch at that time turned out to be correct; Clyde is going to be part of something great. Hell, it's not just great but impossible. To beat a Celestial and come back with the news that he has found the path to the Nexus of Creation by himself is another impossible thing.

'I didn't make a mistake by making him an ally.'

"Alright," Maethion said. "Now you should rest first. After that, we will discuss the next plan."
