Kapitel 14: Origin
Aurum had no idea on how to obtain information about its origin. He just got all of his skills (except for Rampage) from the system itself. Of course, it was possible to use books to know about its origins, but Dmitri just didn't say it. Aurum, who is quite troubled, immediately asked the system for it's help.
"System, how do I know the origins of these skills and abilities?"
[DING! The System is lacking information. Host needs to absorb all information from the books.]
"Holy f*ck! If I knew that this System needs me to read, I would have learned how to read perfectly! Don't you have any way to solve this for me?"
[DING! Host can buy from the store a Fruit of Knowledge. However, CP is currently insufficient. Host needs to gather 100,000,000 CP to unlock this feature. Otherwise, you can depend on your luck when you are opening your gifts.]
"Oh yeah! I totally forgot that I still got them gifts! Thanks for the reminder, System!"
[....]
Aurum got the feeling that the System was looking down at him like he is a helpless kid. However, he just brushed off this thought immediately. He knew that if he even bothered to think like that, then he would be mentally exhausted immediately. Moreover, the Combat System had analyzed his total memory, so he can't really refute any words from it.
He didn't waste any more time openin those rare gifts that has been sitting in his System for almost two weeks already. He activated Blessings I and opened the gifts.
[DING! Opening gifts in three seconds...

"Gah! Only 8,000,000 CP?! Why didn't you make it 100,000,000 in one shot?" Aurum's thoughts leaked out and said it out loud.
"Huh? CP? 100,000,000 in one shot? What do you mean young master?" Dmitri was confused.
"No, it's nothing"
Of course Aurum couldn't tell Dmitri that he has a System inside him. If he did, Dmitri would look at him as if he's a lunatic.
Aurum was dissatisfied when he saw that he needed 2 million more CP to get the Fruit of Knowledge. However, he was pretty happy when he saw those skills and abilities that was given to him. Especially the Stealth and Blink skill. With these at his disposal, he won't need to worry about escaping when a strong enemy tries to pursue and kill him.
"Hey Dmitri... Do you know who Azazel is?" Aurum, who doesn't know where to get some information about his skills and abilities, asked Dmitri.
"Azazel? Hmm... that name sounds familiar..." Dmitri rubbed his chin while trying to remember.
"Can you give me more details if you can?" he added.
"I really don't know if its either male or female, its only that its a name of a demon. That's all I can recall, is the information I gave enough?"
"Well as far as I know, Azazel is a demon who showed up on Earth many years ago," Aurum said.
"Ah! Right, right, right. Actually, Azazel is not a demon, but a fallen angel. He defied the Almighty One and sympathized the Almighty One's enemy, Satan. He was then cast down to Earth and became well-known among the fallen angels. He then made a group of fallen angels who rebelled against Him and called it Grigori. This was the cause why humans are able to use black magic and some witchcraft at that era. This was also the prelude towards the Great War. Now that I think about it, it's that god's fault why all of this happened," Dmitri explained to him.
"Hmm... that's an interesting information. Then do you have any information about the Thunder God's Wrath?" Aurum asked another one.
"Thunder God's Wrath? That skill is only available to Zeus and Takemikazuchi... Why would you want to know about it?" Dmitri asked skeptically.
"Oh you know, just curious about our opponents. You know there's a saying 'know thy enemy, know thyself', right?" Aurum answered quickly.
Dmitri was still having doubts on his words, but still gave him information.
"Before the humans owned the land, the past overlords of the earth, excluding the gods, are the dragons. Zeus and Takemikazuchi ruled the same element but was in different factions. They would always fight on who is better at using their elements. One day, the humans had enough at the dragon's tyranny and they called out to the both of them. However, they didn't respond to the humans. Instead, they kept fighting each other until both of them got tired. When the dragons saw this, they thought that they found the chance to go and kill two of the gods but sadly, they attacked them when the tension was at its peak. Both of the Thunder gods was furious that it almost brought Gochihr*. Seventy-five percent of the dragon's population was annihilated from the face of the planet after facing their wrath. At the Great War, Takemikazuchi was betrayed by Zeus and was sealed by him," Dmitri rambled.
Dmitri's explanation to Aurum really didn't go well. Aurum didn't understand most of it. So he asked him an alternative.
"Dmitri, you lived for millions of years, yeah? If that's the case, do you, perhaps, have some books relating to those things that I mentioned earlier? I want to know who are my potential enemies and potential allies in the future."
"I don't really recommend showing you the books that we gathered but if you insist, I won't stop you young master" Dmitri replied.
"Why is that?"
"Well, I think you would only understand when see it for yourself," Dmitri didn't bother explaining it to him further.
======================================================
At the god's realm, many gods and goddesses are in a turmoil right now. When Aurum was still unconscious, he exuded a terrifying aura which was meant to be the conqueror of realms. They only knew a few people who had such aura and that is those from the upper world who descended. Now that Aurum has the same aura, they could not remain calm anymore. Many gods and goddesses didn't bother to show any kind of respect at the moment and chose to go inside the conference chamber even if they were not allowed to.
"What are we supposed to do now?"
"That kid is going to massacre us!"
"We are not going to sit down and do nothing from this forth on!"
Many of them voiced their opinion openly without any regards to what punishment may come unto them. The three major gods cannot do anything in this situation anymore. They were also terrified when Zeus, Odin, and the Almighty One saw how the ridiculous the growth of Aurum is.
"SILENCE!" the three of them exclaimed.
Instantly, nobody dared to talk and silence permeated throughout the chamber.
"Since things has developed this way, we must kill him ourselves. Is that what you're thinking?" Zeus asked.
The minor gods didn't say anything but just nodded.
"Well, we could do that but we must not lower ourselves to get that brat. All of us can descend and let the humans see us. After that we could just announce to them that Aurum is a heretic, and must be killed or else he will destroy the world using his evil power," Odin supported the other minor gods.
"My fellow gods, are you forgetting something? My faction is currently the largest religion spread throughout the earth. I can let my archangel Michael descend and tell the humans that Aurum is the spawn of Satan himself. That way it would be more convincing than to say that he can end the world by himself," the Almighty One grinned.
Many gods and goddesses were instantly relieved when they heard that the Almighty One was supporting them too.
"Heh! That's a good move right there! Not only would you let humans kill Aurum, you would also increase the hatred of humans to Lucifer. However, my faction and Zeus' faction should also send someone to tell the humans. That way almost all humans would hunt him down!" Odin smirked.
"Then it's decided! I will send Hermes to deliver the message to the humans," Zeus said.
"Then I'll send Hermond to do the same too," Odin added.
================================================
Back in the mortal realm, every single human was living their lives to the fullest. They would go to work, eat in a restaurant, go on a date with their loved ones, etc. However, when they saw that the clouds was beginning to turn dark, they suddenly had a bad feeling.
"Look! Something strange is going on to the clouds!" someone said.
As soon as someone said that, everyone in the vicinity looked up at the sky. What they saw astonished them, for they saw a huge angel carrying a rapier at his waist, slowly descending. Instantly, every devout believer of went down on their knees. They were all singing praises to the Almighty One and asking for forgiveness for all their sins.
"It's Saint Michael!"
"The messenger of God has descended!"
All of the people from the church remembered that there was an ancient prophecy saying that an angel of God will descend when the end of the world is coming. Suddenly, their train of thought was broken when archangel Michael spoke.
"Greetings devout believers of God. I am archangel Michael, a messenger of God. The Almighty One told me to give you a warning, the spawn of Satan has surfaced. The spawn of Satan is planning to end the humanity and bring hell on Earth. Fortunately, the spawn of Satan still hasn't matured enough."
All of the people who were listening trembled. They shuddered in fear at the thought that the spawn of Satan will massacre all of them 'till nobody is left alive. They all were silent until the Pope of the church spoke.
"Archangel Michael, I am the current Pope of the church, may I ask what is the name of the spawn of Satan?"
"Aurum Est. His name is Aurum Est. One week ago, you must have felt that the earth and the sky was being shaken off. That was the sign that he is awakening. We shall not let this spawn of evil do what he want. Justice will prevail!"
"What do we do to stop him?" someone asked from the crowd.
"Do what's necessary... God will forgive the sins of those who stop this madness!" he replied.
==================================================
On another place at the human realm, Hermes descended to earth without even trying to suppress his divinity. Many people were similarly shocked to see that the messenger God went down to earth.
"O great and almighty Hermes! To what do we owe Olympus honor?" a high priest immediately asked with a hint of reverence.
"My father, Zeus, told me to tell you that a human, Aurum Est, is trying to release the Kraken and the titans. We must not let Ogyges befall unto humans, thus he told me to we warn you right away," Hermes replied.
For the people here, the titans and the Kraken were the most hated beings in the planet. They were skeptical if it really existed, but now that a god told them personally, they have no choice but to believe in it. All people immediately paled when they heard that Aurum was going to unleash them unto earth. They all heard legends on how the Kraken and the titans almost destroyed earth multiple times. The high priest immediately ordered to mobilize all of their people to search for Aurum.
"I want you to find him and offer his blood and soul to our gods!" he exclaimed.
=======================================================
On another side of the world, Hermond, like the others, also descended to the human realm. Everything was chaotic when they heard that a human named Aurum Est is going to unleash Ragnarok.
"To the one who kills this human, Odin will grant you the honor to visit Aesir and become his subordinate there!" Hermond declared.
Instantly, the people who were initially scared were now fired up. They now have their motivation as they thought of going to the rumored Aesir.
====================================================
Aurum, who just became a wanted criminal world wide, was still ignorant about the fact that the whole world is going to find and kill him. Both Dmitri and Aurum were just standing in front of a abandoned library. The library gave off a feeling that no person should be allowed to step inside. When Aurum was about to open the library, Dmitri stopped him.
"Aurum, the moment you enter this door, you will unveil all the secrets that the gods hid. You will know the origin of everything and you will find whatever information you need in this library. However, this comes with a heavy price. The price would be half of your current power and every word you utter of the contents in this library to humans, it will take a portion of your soul until none is left. Do you still want to go inside?" Dmitri warned him seriously.
"Yeah. Just let me go inside already, alright? Trust me." Aurum replied impatiently.
Dmitri didn't say anything else to Aurum. He already said what needs to be said and the latter already knew about the consequences. Dmitri immediately started chanting in a language that he doesn't know of. When he did, the library began to glow brightly and exuded a terrifying pressure. Aurum felt that something was pushing him down and can't stop thinking that this is going to be the end.
"What the f*ck is going on, Dmitri?!" Aurum asked.
Dmitri didn't answer Aurum and just kept on chanting. Constantly, the pressure that it exudes gradually increases that it might just break him apart.
For fifteen whole minutes, he would have been dead if not for his Unyielding Will. When Dmitri stopped chanting, Aurum's Unyielding Will increased to level X. Dmitri immediately sat down and breathed heavily.
"Haa... haa... Aurum... I'm afraid I can't enter the library with you. All Celestial Beings are not allowed to see the secrets that the gods kept," Dmitri said while exhausted.
Aurum was just about to ask what kind of place the library is when he heard a system notification.
[DING! Congratulations to the Host for finding the Index Librorum Prohibitorum.
Host received 10,000,000 (10,000,000 CP)]
"Index Librorum Prohibitorum? Why does this name sounds so familiar?'" he inwardly thought.
