Bab 42: Aliya, God of War
"But I'm not gonna tell you. It'll discourage the kid and after I tried to liven him up.", Elihim removed his foot on the spear but Rim didn't felt the weight decreased. His whole body was covered in sweat trying to fight out the pain.
Elihim looked at Rin and thought, 'Whoa, I haven't taught that to him yet he doing the basics.', then he glanced towards Aliya, "Don't meddle with this. This only concerns me and my disciple here. We'll solve this problem in a few years without troubling any of you.", Elihim said politely while his tone was still his usual playful tone.
"Only concerns you and your disciple?", Aliya's face darkened, "This is an all-out war that can become massive as the war above heavens yet…", Aliya glared at Elihim, "You say that it only concerns you and your disciple?!! This concerns everyone, even the Omnipotent God!"
"Oh, you're trying to go against me?", Elihim's smile faded into coldness.
"Yes or do you think I can't defeat you Mister God of Knowledge and Wisdom?", Aliya tilted her head without losing the glare.
"Don't say my Godlyhood in sarcasm and I didn't say anything about fighting. I just considered that you may like this kind of war.", Elihim pressed the word "kind" and continued, "Miss God of War.", sarcastically.
Aliya's face went red. This is about a war that may change every world but instead, they are having this conversation. However, as prideful as she is, she just couldn't stand someone messing with her name even if it is another God, "A God of War doesn't mean that I like wars, you idiot!", she thrusted her spear forward.
Elihim didn't stop her but he still pitied Rin, 'Ugh, why is my disciple very unlucky and always meet tortures? But he's really concentrated right now. His mentality may improved more if he can control this pain. If he tolerated it more maybe he can reach the First Stage of Focus.'
"You're disciple may die any moment, you know?", Aliya coldly said as she twist her wrist, she looked at Rin with ger psychopathisc eyes, "This is very serious. We just need to give this kid and those monsters' fury may settle down even if it's a little."
"Okay, I guess, we can go back to our previous talk about fighting.", Elihim's smile widened.
"Some nerves you have. I'm a God of War, strength only second to the God of Destruction among all the Gods yet you challenge me, God of Knowledge and Wisdom?"
"Of course, we can fight here without holding back. Even if I turn out to be defeated then at least I fought valiantly against the God of War, Aliya!", Elihim spread his arms.
Aliya realized something and her eyebrows furrowed, "So that's what you are on about." Even though she is the God of War, she isn't as ruthless as to destroy a whole living world just because of a little fight. Their strength are incomparable to mortals that just from the Godly Energy they are releasing can kill nearby innocent people.
"What? Still wanna fight?", Elihim raised left fist lazily, mocking her.
Aliya could only clenched her fist and asked, "Then what are your plans about this, God of Knowledge and Wisdom?"
"Hahaha, could you stop that? I still have my pride, you know.
"Enough, say what's your plan.", Aliya had a very serious face.
"Hmmm", Elihim looked as if he was in deep thought and for a moment he was silent before continuing, "I'm going to train my disciple until he can take care of himself and refrain those monsters from the Underworld from messing wth others."
"…", Aliya was quiet, waiting for Elihim that what he said was a joke and to tell her the real plan…
But Elihim was serious about that and there are no other plans.
"You serious about that?", Aliya asked dumbfoundedly.
"Yeah, that's about it.", Elihim casually said
"You're mad…", Aliya stared at disbelief. Is the God of Knowledge and Wisdom supposed to be this dumb or just plain crazy? Either way, his plan can just throw itself into the garbage.
"Ahaha, I'm still completely sane."
When Aliya was about to say something, she felt a strange energy coming from the spear. It was strange because it was too weak to be coming from her spear.
She looked and saw Rin who was in a meditation position, his hair was waving as if under the water. The part where the spear was pierced through his body was glowing faint blue light. A Natural Energy.
Aliya's heart almost fell out of her chest when she thought that Rin was forming an Energy Core. As if Elihim knew what Aliya was thinking about, he clarified, "That's not an Energy Core. It's too early for him. He's still not in the First Stage of Focus was yet to be manipulating Natural Energy."
Aliya was a bit relief but also worried. Elihim placed much confidence in his disciple but the disciple in question was not even in the First Stage of Focus.
"Don't worry, he's now entering the it."
"Huh?", Aliya was again surprised since that shouldn't even be possible. She stabbed him on the chest! He should be dying not meditating and increasing his focus stage! Although that was in her mind, she don't want to interrupt the kid. However, Elihim stopped her before she could pull the spear, "Don't, he's practicing how to control his pain while improving his focus and at the same time entering the First Stage of Focus. This is the perfect situation he can be."
Even though Elihim explained, Aliya was still surprised. Feeling pain just improve his focus and the process of leveling up. Not any person could just do that.
Cold sweat emerged from Aliya's forehead as she asked, "Do you plan for him to complete all the marks and transform into a God of Slayer?"
"What? Why? Of course not. He did not even have a single mark, it'll take forever for him to find a God who can be killed.", Elihim scratched his head.
"But.. he already have the mark of a Godslayer…", Aliya furrowed her eyebrows.
