Kapitel 8: [8] Development II
Several months have passed since I settled in this snowy forest. I don't know when the winter will end, but according to Ciel's prediction, summer will arrive next month.
The Central Continent, northern region. This forest is close to human territory if I head east. Although I could go there, I chose to stay after considering the dangers. I'm not foolish enough to wander the outside world armed only with cheats without knowing how to use them properly. Many dangers come not just from monsters but also from humans. I have to think logically—even in another world, many people are evil, especially with magic that can create super villains.
My goal is not to settle in one place but to wander and understand this world from my perspective while spreading the teachings of the Bible. Even now, I have written several parts of the book. The paper is made from wood fibers that I crafted myself, and the ink from charcoal I processed. Although not as good as the original, it is still quite acceptable.
With Ciel's help, I could make everything. After all, Ciel is the crystallization of Raphael's power, which means he knows the contents of the Bible despite many revisions due to human interference. He directed me to modify it to fit this world. I did this because this world is not only inhabited by humans. If I copied the entire contents of the Bible from Earth, there might be controversy, making humans arrogant.
I don't want that to happen, even though it feels heavy. My goal is to wander while spreading this relatively new religion.
I set down the pen made from bird feathers into the ink bottle and looked at my precious writing. Since it is not yet in book form, it remains several pieces of paper. Nevertheless, I am grateful.
After finishing writing, I tidied up my study table and moved to a small prayer room I made. There, a cross hangs on the wall.
"I am grateful for the blessings You bestowed upon me today, Father," I said sincerely, joining my hands in prayer with a peaceful heart.
In this moment, I truly felt what tranquility is. When I was still a human on Earth, my life was filled with competition among people always striving to be the best. I was too focused on pursuing worldly achievements that I forgot my goal became empty after my beloved mother passed away. It felt so empty, as if my entire being had been uprooted.
However, after being given guidance and transmigrating to another world, I do not waste my life chasing the world anymore. Now, I have a more noble and meaningful purpose.
"I pray to the Father in heaven to guide this lost sheep towards the path of glory," I ended my prayer. I opened my eyes and gazed at the wooden cross hanging on the wall, with sunlight streaming through the window, giving a sense of peace and hope.
Standing from my prayer position, I turned to leave the room while grabbing the fur jacket hanging by the door.
...
[You are expending too much of your power], Ciel scolded me as I tested a new spear technique I had created.
"Oh, come on, I know that!" I yelled while dodging the fierce bite of a wolf.
My eyes warily scanned the surroundings. There were eight wolves, and their leader was behind them, observing and giving commands with sharp, cunning eyes.
"It's really hard when they come in packs like this!" I muttered, maintaining a defensive stance. My feet were shoulder-width apart, holding the spear with my right hand above my right shoulder while my left hand gripped the middle of the spear shaft.
[If that's the case, you need to move quickly because the characteristic of Invisible Wolves is that they can disappear], Ciel reminded me.
After Ciel's warning, I sensed something odd behind me—a sharp intuition indicating another Invisible Wolf approaching. Quickly, I swung my spear while stepping back, slashing the neck of the invisible wolf with precision.
[Also, the name of the technique you created sounds strange, Glory Heaven Spear Technique. You would be ridiculed if that were known on Earth].
My forehead twitched at the subtle mockery, "Thanks for that useless compliment," I retorted.
GRRRAAAAWW!!
The wolf leader roared loudly, signaling its subordinates to attack me simultaneously, even activating their invisibility ability.
'Damn...'
[Use Gabriel's Miracle]
"I know that!"
Activating Gabriel's ability and applying it to my vision allowed me to see them, like thermal goggles detecting heat.
Heaven Glory Spear Technique is a complex spear fighting style that harnesses the user's spiritual essence to unleash powerful attacks infused with holy power. This technique demands unwavering faith, unyielding focus, and mastery of spear fighting fundamentals. A technique I created under Ciel's guidance. Heaven Glory Spear Technique encompasses a series of powerful offensive maneuvers designed to overwhelm opponents. These attacks are not just physical; they are imbued with divine energy, making them incredibly potent and capable of inflicting significant damage.
The core of the technique lies in the infusion of Holy Energy, which can be interpreted as divine or spiritual power permeating the universe and harnessed by individuals through faith, training, and specific techniques. It is a powerful energy that can manifest in various forms.
Heaven Glory Spear Technique - Whirlwind of Heaven
A spinning attack that turns the spear into a vortex of divine energy, shredding any defenses and scattering the wolves attacking me simultaneously, their bodies being diced into several pieces, leaving a trail of golden light around me.
The four remaining wolves, including their leader, paused for a moment, witnessing my eyes glowing gold thanks to Gabriel's Blessing.
"What? If you don't come at me, then I'll come to you!" I shouted with determination.
I stomped the ground with my enhanced strength.
Heaven Glory Spear Technique - Radiant Impale
With a rapid forward thrust, I released a wave of glowing divine energy, piercing through the wolves' bodies like a cannon, shattering them into pieces.
The other wolves, realizing their leader was instantly killed, trembled in fear. Without hesitation, I used the technique again.
Radiant Impale - three times in a row.
I maneuvered among several trees, wielding my spear with speed and precision like a side character using only one technique. Each movement flowed with grace and power, resulting in devastating bursts of energy.
"Fiuh, that went smoothly as usual," I said, wiping the sweat from my forehead, surveying the slightly wrecked and chaotic surroundings due to my spear technique. "Hey, what score did I get?"
[20 Points], Ciel replied.
"Eh!? Isn't that too little!" I protested.
[Wake up, your technique needs refinement, and your control of holy energy must be more delicate. Your spear technique should be more than just creating some air blasts and making wind], Ciel explained firmly.
"Hey, that's harsh!" I retorted, feeling a bit offended.
I took a deep breath, realizing that even though I had mastered the basics of this technique, there was still much to learn and perfect. The four remaining wolves now lay lifeless, and I stood in the midst of the chaos I had created with my spear.
"Alright," I replied with a slight pout, realizing that guidance alone was not enough to refine my technique further. This meant I needed enlightenment from someone experienced.
"Ciel-sensei, may I ask you something?" I asked while turning, leaving the snowy forest with the two dead wolves that would be my lunch.
[Go ahead], Ciel answered in a cold, mechanical tone.
My steps felt heavy as the thick snow made my feet sink with each step on this snowy plain.
"Could you teach me the human language later? Although I understand what they say, I cannot speak their language well. This makes conversations one-sided. Besides, I don't intend to stay in this forest forever."
Ciel paused for a moment, then replied calmly, [Of course, I can teach you the human language. Understanding and speaking their language will be crucial when you decide to leave this forest and interact with others. I will guide you, as always].
The corners of my mouth lifted, my eyes sparkled as I chuckled. "I knew I could count on you," I replied with confidence.
