Little Ghost's Awakening?
🕑 Added 2022-08-24 15:14:48 +0000 UTC--- Chapter 85 ---
Hayate sat on the floor with a complicated expression because [Manifestation] is not a simple ability. It's True God's power that shouldn't exist anymore.
It would be much simpler if Luna explained [Manifestation]'s ability, but as she said, it would be better for Hayate to find the limit himself. Also, He doesn't want to bother with that Little Prankster for a moment.
The God of Manifestation can manifest almost everything based on his imagination. This ability downgraded to the profound handle of the Yun Family, leading to the loss of the original qualities.
Hayate watched the "Formless Emperor's Robe." disappear, leaving him with the original shirt and long trousers, but what caught his interest was the dim sword mark on his left arm.
It's similar to Yun Canghai's cyan sword mark, alas longer with more intrinsic lines. An ancient aura comes from it, shining dimply under the room's shadow.
"Heh." Hayate was interested and tried to manifest different kinds of weapons. A spark of golden light burst out of his palm and became a golden sword.
He tried to split the golden sword into pieces and created ten daggers, each having the strength of the Sovereign Realm.
[Profound Handle] has a different color. Red being the lowest and Gold being the highest is a myth in Yun Family.
This bloodline ability has a substantial difference in power output. The red [Profound Handle] can only exert 10% of the wielder's strength.
As for Cyan [Profound Handle] like Yun Canghai could exert 50% of his power, making him a powerhouse in the Illusionary Realm and Patriarch of the Yun Family.
Hayate possessed the gold-colored [Profound Handle], which could exert 100% of his power. There are also more additional abilities, but he has yet to discover them. And He somehow felt there is more color in [Profound Handle].
After an hour, Hayate sighed and commented, "What a troublesome ability."
"Manifestation is indeed an ability akin to cheat, but the energy this skill consumes is outrageous."
"Evolving Scorbunny into Raboot uses 40% of my Primordial Energy, but it's quite understandable because ordinary profound energy won't create such a miracle."
He picked a herb from his drawers and utilized [Manifestation] on it, causing the ginseng to gain a blood-colored hue.
"That uses 10% of my Primordial Energy..." Hayate sighed in defeat. "Well, I obtained 10.000 years old Blood Ginseng in the process, so worth it."
Blood Ginseng is a precious medicine to enhance one's blood quality and vitality. Even in the higher realm, this thing is quite rare.
"Profound Handle..." Jasmine muttered to herself.
After a few moments of searching inside her memories, she watched the sword mark on Hayate's palm with a shocked expression.
"Hayate!" She shouted excitedly.
"I might know something about your Manifestation Ability."
Hayate turned around and returned, "Oh, tell me?"
Jasmine opened her mouth, "In the Divine Realm, there is a clan called Heavenly Handle Yun Clan. They are famous for being a criminal because of losing the Heavenly Profound Treasure, Mirror of Samsara."
"Since you have the Mirror of Samsara, it explains that the Yun Family on this planet is actually from the Divine Realm."
"Where are they right now?" He asked naturally.
Jasmine rocked her head and answered, "Uh, Heavenly Handle Yun Clan are in the Northern Divine Region now and punished by the Burning Moon Realm for a thousand years."
"Well, I don't know anything else besides that."
"H-Hmph, be glad that I gave you this information." Her face radiated with a "Praise me." aura.
"Thank you, Jasmine." Hayate couldn't help but chuckle and patted Jasmine's head gently.
Jasmine released a soft purr full of satisfaction and nudged her head against Hayate's palm even more. Still, a gasp escaped her mouth when realizing what was going on between them.
She shook Hayate's hand off her head and said, "I-I'LL TAKE A NAP! DON'T DO ANYTHING DIRTY BEHIND ME, OKAY!"
Jasmine flopped onto the bed and balled her body around in embarrassment because Hayate's touch was more enjoyable than expected. She also released a cat-like purr.
"How cute," Hayate commented while ordering Raboot to return to his inner universe. He decided to test [Manifestation] and [Profound Handle] more for a few hours.
At night, Little Ghost entered the room with a tray of warm foods and noticed a flickering golden light inside. Her instinct informed her everything was fine.
"Master?" She called for Hayate.
Hayate opened his eyes and said, "Just in time."
"Little Ghost, come here."
She placed the tray on the table and approached Hayate without hesitation. Her eyes behind the blindfold finally notice a glowing golden sword mark on her Master's left arm.
"Here, kneel in front of me." He added, to which she responded with a nod immediately.
Hayate pressed his palm against Little Ghost's head and flowed something into her body, causing extreme changes. Her body was fiery hot.
Little Ghost felt every inch of her body screaming, wanting to break the restraint. Her blindfold loosened and fell onto the floor, revealing her beautiful azure eyes.
Dragon God's Blood inside her body reacted violently, causing an azure dragon tattoo spread to her entire back. Her cultivation exploded through the roof and advanced to the half-step Emperor Profound Realm.
(An: Peak Sky Profound Realm)
Hayate used all his Primordial Energy and noticed Little Ghost's transformation is not as grand as Scorbunny, but then she's a human.
There is no way her body glowed back and forth, growing bigger instantly.
"Right?" Hayate tilted his head, but a bright azure light suddenly escaped Little Ghost's skin. Her body is growing at a fast rate and reached 6 ft height. A head shorter than him.
Little Ghost's black hair gained azure shade, draping over her shoulder to her thin waist. And Her face hasn't changed much besides gaining a more Adult- like appearance now.
Her tight uniform abruptly was shredded a little because of the pair of growing respectable mountains and peaches.
"Mmm~." A pale blue horn on Little Ghost's head.
"How do you feel?" Hayate asked while carefully leaning her onto a chair.
Little Ghost was disorganized and answered, "I felt strong and light. Also, The Dragon God's blood seemed to have become one with me."
Although Little Ghost was experiencing surprising changes, she couldn't really explain it to Hayate very well. It is very sudden and explosive.
Hayate checked Little Ghost's condition by running his profound energy into her, finding vast transformations within her.
First and foremost, she's not a pure human anymore. Dragon God's Blood merged with her heart perfectly, turning it into Dragon's Heart.
The second and last change is the most surprising. A blue energy vortex manifested in Little Ghost's abdomen, spinning vigorously into a blue pearl.
This blue pearl actually was the condensation of Little Ghost's profound energy, Dragon God's Blood, and Hayate's help. An odd source of energy.
(An: The Golden Core)
Hayate pondered about something and asked, "Can you contact a little pearl in your abdomen, Little Ghost."
"I'll try." Little Ghost nodded casually.
Crack!
Her left arm skin cracked like spiderwebs and released gleaming azure scales. "I can feel the pearl but can't control it with my current strength." She said while waving her hand around.
"As for this transformation, It's called 10% Dragonification."
"I see," Hayate mumbled while patting her head. "Sorry, I should have warned you."
Little Ghost panicked and quickly refuted, "NO! It's alright, Master!"
"I'm happy that you give me this newfound power. With it, I can do my duty as your Ghost even better now."
Hayate sighed, "Xun'er, don't push yourself too hard."
Yes, Xun'er is Little Ghost's real name, but Xiao isn't her family name. After all, She's an orphan Hong Guan picked who was starving on the side of the street years ago.
(An: Xun'er is Little Ghost's name)
The young woman leaned on Hayate's chest and pouted, "I'm not pushing myself. Everything will be alright when Master and Mistress are happy."
"Xun'er always thought that way." At least she wanted to repay their help with her servitude forever. She is happy Hong Guan picked her up from the street, feeding and training her to this day.
Hayate pulled her cheeks a little and commented, "It's fine to be angry, it's fine to be happy, it's fine to cry, and it's fine to laugh."
"Xun'er, you're one of my precious family members."
"Remember, Family together is strong."
She teared up a little and wiped them away quickly, lifting her developed body. Her rosy lips parted and met with Hayate's.
"Thank you for everything, Master." Her voice muffled between the kisses.
"I should be the one who says that." Hayate chuckled lightly.
...
A day passed, and Hayate walked out of his workshop with a fresh sensation all over his body.
After becoming the God of Manifestation, he could feel every ounce of profound energy entering his skin and filtered inside his inner universe, becoming Primordial Energy.
It's a slow process but very stable compared to absorbing corrupted Kaiju Core.
Yeah, Hayate has decided to use the "Corrupted." term because these Kaiju have decided to oppose him without the slightest desire to come back.
Hayate stretched and said, "Well, I needed a month to reach full of my Primordial Core."
"Cang Yue is next." A gentle smile appeared on his face.
He entered the Lost Heaven and saw Cang Yue watering down some plants with a sprinkler. "People will be shocked by this scene. The Blue Wind's Princess is watering down plants!" He teased with a chuckle.
Cang Yue shook her head and replied, "My image will be better that way then. I don't have to deal with those pesky nobles for a while."
"So, how is your research?" She asked him.
Hayate grinned and manifested the Formless Emperor's Robe to cover his body.
"Y-You look handsome now." Cang Yue's mouth was wide open.
A tick mark appeared on Hayate's face. He instantly disabled the Formless Emperor's Robe and mumbled, "So I'm not handsome before..."
The Blue Wind Royal Princess couldn't hold her amusement because of her fiance's antics. She placed the sprinkler down and hugged him.
"My fiance is the most handsome man in the universe." She declared proudly.
"Pfft~."
"HAHAHA!"
They laughed heartily and stared at each other's eyes.
Cang Yue decided to give Hayate a morning kiss and said, "I can't imagine a world without you, Hayate."
"That day when we met each other for the time, I felt fate was not so cruel anymore. They took my mother away when I was young and plunged my father into sickness."
"Only you, my fiance, the one who gives me hope at that time."
"At that time, I was..." Hayate's voice lowered.
"You're manipulating me?" Cang Yue giggled. "My naive self is very thankful for that. You awakened me from my soft vision of this world."
She gave him a peck and continued, "I've reached the third stage of Sky Profound Realm."
"It means it's time for that." She winked her eyes playfully.
"Well, Luna told me about your mission, so I'll be waiting in my room."
"I'll be back as fast as possible," Hayate immediately responded with a smile.
.
.
Moon Slaughter Devil Nest.
Chu Yuechan is currently waving her ice sword and defending herself from a sharp claw.
Clank!
BOOM!
A powerful punch toasted her several meters away, but her eyes kept shining in firm belief. "I have to get it." She mumbled while staring at Netherworld Udumbara Flower.
"JUST DIE ALREADY, WOMAN!" An ominous creature roared at her.
Chu Yuechan landed on the destroyed land and wiped the blood from her eyes, smearing it all over her lips.
"I have to do it." Her voice is monotonous.
Under very dim sunlight, Chu Yuechan's cultivation astonishingly reached the 7th stage of Sovereign Profound Realm. She has been living here for months, fighting the Moon Slaughter Devil Sovereign tirelessly.
"I have to keep my promise." She whispered to herself.
Her rag-like clothes don't bother her at all.
Chu Yuechan is on the Moon Slaughter Devil Nest for Netherworld Udumbara Flower.
She would do everything to get it.
Even if her life was on the line, she had to get the flower.
"I have to do it." Her cold eyes are lifeless, but there is a single spark of light.
Hayate's warm images flashed in her mind.
"My life..."
"Everything is for him..."
