GodKing Of Life - Chapter 11

“Hmm” A boy could be seen mumbling in his sleep on a bed made of grass and a blanket made of leaves.

The boy was probably having a nice dream with the expression on his face.​​

His face was adorned with a big smile and a small trickle of drool coming from the tip of his mouth.

His right leg had fallen off the bed and so had his right arm.

Seeing his innocence in his sleep, one might mistake him for a cute little vulnerable child.

And yet he was not a child and no longer vulnerable, but a Phoenix on the path to divinity.

But seeing his nonchalance would make anyone relaxed and hypnotized by his cute and beautiful face.

Irresistible, one would want to look at him and pinch him forever.

The cave didn’t make a single sound, neither did the birds, the light gusts of wind from before had ceased and the water from the waterfall still flowed, sounding like a melody.

The glow emitted by the crystals had faded a little and was no longer as bright and dazzling as before despite the fact that it still lit up the cave.

But the light did not bother Shin who was sleeping because the cave tree under which he slept protected him from any unwanted light.

Even Shin did not make any snoring or other noises, he just slept peacefully and showed it well.

——————————————————

After a few minutes of silence that seemed eternal, it was finally broken by Shin’s awakening.

“Hmm” Shin’s eyes opened gently but easily thanks to the shadow cast by the tree.

Having opened his eyes completely, he rubbed his eyes to awaken himself completely while sitting down.

“Aaah” He stretched out his arms to push a waking yawn.

“For a first night outside, it was pretty good,” said Shin.

Contrary to what he thought before going to bed, he hadn’t felt any fresh air coming from the wind and the room temperature was neither too cold nor too hot.

And then there was this grass bed that was a comfortable insolent compared to all the beds he had ever seen in his life.

The blanket although it was made of leaves was also pleasant, not scratchy and gave him a pleasant temperature.

“A Divine Realm huh…” Shin thought back to the dream he had just woken up from.

Finally it was not a dream but he was able to access the Divine Realm through dreams so well…

At least now the future problem of the house is solved.

“Now, the next goal is training.”

Shin exclaimed as his smile disappeared and his eyes became serious. He couldn’t laugh about training because it was a very important part of the training.

He needed perfect control over his body and his abilities as well as experience in combat if he was not to suffer undesirable consequences.

“But before that”

Shin’s serious face disappeared as he got up from his bed and walked towards the pond.

By the way, Shin’s bed did not disappear but and remained always in the same place without having moved a grass.

‘Will it stay forever?’

Dissipating this thought from his head, Shin arrived in front of the lake and began to take off his clothes one by one.

“A good bath will not be refused”

Since he had arrived, Shin hadn’t washed and despite the fact that he didn’t stink and didn’t sweat due to enormous efforts, he would always feel bad for not washing.

The water was a perfect temperature, pleasant like a hot spring, but it was not.

But Shin didn’t think much because he was in a state of infinite happiness right now. He took full advantage of this divine feeling.

After 1 hour of pure relaxation, Shin finally decided to take a real bath.

“System, could I have some soap please”

[Of course.]

A soap appeared in Shin’s hands.

An oval soap that gave off an intoxicating scent and invaded his nose with a sweet scent of delicate, aromatic exotic fruit.

All this mixed with his natural male body odor could drive a woman crazy and addicted to this smell like a drug.

“Is it free?”

“Nice” Shin was happy that it was free, he expected it to be paid for.

Points saved even if he wasn’t interested in it for the moment.

After finishing washing himself properly to be all clean, Shin came out of the pond and bent down to pick up his clothes when he saw them on the ground.

“More dishcloths than clothes without being mean”

Shin did not want to be disrespectful but the clothes he had been torn from everywhere and did not even make his size.

“System, you would not have clothes to sell?” Shin by asking knew that he was going to have to spend his points for the first time.

It hurt him a little to spend them on just clothes but he didn’t have much choice, he wasn’t going to go nȧkėd outside.

Of course host, as a parting gift, a pair of clothes was randomly chosen for you].

“Thank you” Shin replied politely but deep down he was praying for clothes that would fit him well and that wouldn’t look too ugly or weird.

He wasn’t picky but who would want to have ugly or weird clothes when you have a system that can give you so much.

While he was praying deep inside him, his body was suddenly illuminated with a white light that dazzled Shin who closed his eyes.

Shin felt a weight on his body again and the light seemed to be gone so he opened his eyes.

When Shin opened his eyes, he could see that he was now wearing new clothes.

“Wow” When Shin saw his new clothes, he was surprised and relieved.

He was wearing a plain white shirt with a folded collar that cut into a V-shape at the bottom of the shirt and a nice gold tie that was not too flashy. He had a rather basic gray-black pants but well cut with plain white shoes just as basic.

But the most flashy and beautiful was his jacket over his shirt.

It was a beautiful jacket in a beautiful emerald green that blended perfectly with his eyes with beautiful golden streaks.

(ibb.co/vL0GFDF about the same but with the colors said before)

Shin was not at all disappointed with these clothes and did not expect as much when he asked for nice clothes.

At this point, it would be difficult to say that he was ordinary.

His clothes were magnificent and of a masterful quality. People would surely take him for a person of royalty or even divine roots.

“It’s almost too much” Shin thought of taking a cape or a piece of clothing to hide in but quickly abandoned the idea.

“Now that the bath is over, training can begin”

Shin started walking towards the exit until he asked himself a question.

“I wanted to start with my Phoenix transformation but maybe I should do it in the cave.”

He didn’t know how big he was going to be and if he was too big, the risk of being attracted and seen would be increased.

But at the same time if he was too big, he would destroy the cave and die in the most stupid way.

Shin doubted that his size was so big that he could destroy the cave since it could accommodate several ȧduŀt dragons flying in it, but he did not want to take any risks.

After all, he is not a normal Phoenix but a Phoenix God which could make a pretty big difference in size.

Reflecting, Shin stayed on his first idea and took the step towards the exit.

Crossing the long corridor, Shin arrived outside the cave to admire the landscape.

He could see that it was daylight and looking at the sun, it was around 12 o’clock.

A sunny day to start training.

Thinking that it was 12 o’clock, Shin noticed something unusual about him.

“Why am I not hungry?” It was strange for Shin because when he came into this world, it was daylight and now that he woke up, it was 12 o’clock.

So he concluded that he slept for about a whole day.

And even after spending a whole day without eating, he wasn’t hungry.

Host, if you are not hungry it is because your lineage of the God of Life feeds your body with everything it needs. But this does not prevent the host from eating].

Shin was a little sad when he heard this news.

It meant that he would no longer feel the pŀėȧsurė of eating!

Shin cried tears inside and was disgusted.

After several minutes of intense crying, Shin recovered.

He walked to the edge of the mountain and lowered his gaze to see how high he was.

“Ahah, I had forgotten” Shin jubilated ironically forgetting that he was at a height that could have given his predecessor a heart attack.

“Now I’m a Phoenix so there shouldn’t be a problem” He reassured himself that he was a Phoenix and that at worst if he had to break his legs, it would regenerate even though the pain would still be there.

Taking his courage in both hands, Shin crouched down and jumped straight after without any hesitation.

He descended at a fast speed and soon reached the ground.

BOOM

A loud and deep thud could be heard at Shin’s landing causing a big cloud of dust.

As if to see Shin’s condition, the wind blew and dispersed the dust cloud to allow Shin’s silhouette to be seen.

Shin was in a totally normal and relaxed position with his hands in his pockets and his body completely straight.

“Shin found it nice to feel the wind on his face.

He hadn’t found it nice when he jumped up to the mountain since he was more busy screaming for his life than enjoying the wind.

He smiled at the result of the fall. He had nothing, no scratches, nothing broken, and he didn’t have heavy or soft legs.

With this fall, the jump to the mountain and the damage he did due to the excitement, he was now safe and more confident in his strength.

In addition, he had a possible comparison of his strength in this world, further increasing his confidence in his strength.

But Shin knew that he should not become arrogant for all that, he may have been strong but he was not at the top.

He then went to the lakeshore and finally asked the system for the thing he most wanted.

“How do I turn into a Phoenix?” The excitement and impatience could be heard in his voice and seen on his face.

[You just have to think about it and want it].

Shin closed his eyes and went into a kind of trance of absolute concentration.

He felt his body, his heart beating and his blood flowing.

In this absolute concentration, he imagined the image of a Phoenix, an enormous, majestic and divine bird with feathers of fire.

Shin began to feel a pleasant warmth from his body, to expand and dissolve into what seemed to be flames.

His arms, legs, head, entire body became flames and changed into inhuman and different limbs.

Throughout the whole process, Shin felt no pain but felt alive and free, natural as if he had never been in his real body before.

When the process was over, Shin slowly opened his eyes.

His eyes opened as he pulsed with divine power and great wisdom.

“ROAR” Shin roared a roar full of power that did not sound like a dragon roar but more like a high-pitched, magical song.

This melodious roar was not meant to frighten anyone so there was no intention behind it and therefore the animals around were only slightly shaking in reaction to a creature superior to you.

But the aura emanating from Shin, though powerful, was also soothing, wise, noble and beautiful making the animals less frightened and for many admiring the creature.

Shin felt free and powerful enough to defeat any enemy. But he knew that he had gone up only one step, putting him in Rank A (middle).

And yet with only 1 more step, there was already a big enough gap so he couldn’t imagine with 1 Rank.

Shin also knew that it was normal that he was physically stronger given the size of his body. It was like the dragons, he was more powerful in their true form than in human form.

Shin looked down to realize that he was flying right now at a height of tens of meters from the ground.

Seeing this, he thought that he could try to train by flying as high as possible.

Shin who was still stagnant in the air gave a shot of wings to propel himself in the air and climb even higher.

His wingstroke despite the fact that he was tens of meters from the ground created shock waves on the ground causing waves at the lakes and a wind surge that toppled the trees on all sides.

Shin gave 2 wing strokes and with only these two strokes he flew through the clouds creating a trail of green flames behind him.

Shin, above the clouds, stopped in his run.

“I was thinking about training but it already seems natural and easy”.

Shin was surprised to find that with only two wing strokes, he already knew how to fly perfectly as if he had always done it.

“By the way, my flames are green isn’t it” Shin had noticed the trail of flames behind him and was a little surprised to see them green.

For some reason, he expected it but it still felt weird after all the Phoenix he knew was a red/yellow/orange color, the color of a standard flame.

[That’s correct host]

“I wonder what I look like” Asking himself this question, Shin looked through the clouds at the lake below.

He wanted his appearance so he decided to go back down to see his reflection through the lake.

Shin leaned forward and flapped his wings again to propel himself at breakneck speed towards the lake.

Shin’s speed plus the fact that he was going in the direction of the wind increased his speed, making him reach an insane speed.

In several seconds, Shin was already almost on the ground as he was about to crash to the ground.

But a few meters before crashing, Shin gave a shot of wings in the direction of the ground powerful enough to lift himself up but not too much to destroy nothing.

The wingstroke created a gust of wind that allowed him to reposition himself normally.

Shin took a little height to be able to see himself completely in the lake, moved towards it and put his glance there.

He saw there a huge bird with green feathers that seemed all soft. Shades of green could be seen all over its body, the tips of its wings, its tail and along its back radiated beautiful green flames.

It was accompanied by huge talons, and at the tip of its tail were braided feathers adding to the beauty of the creature.

A heavenly creature, majestic, full of wisdom and power.

/ In an unknown place /

A woman in her early 20s with long scarlet red hair reaching down her lower back with a braid on the left side of her hair.

She was at the edge of a window when she felt a great power towards a forest in the distance and a great roar resembling a beautiful song.

When she turned her gaze to the direction where she felt this power and roar, she saw a trail of green flames moving towards the clouds.

“What was that roar? And those green flames, they did not come from a dragon. What kind of creature is that?” the woman said in a second state, thinking back to that beautiful song she heard and that beautiful trail of green flames.

/ In another unknown place /

“That power and that roar… I don’t know of any creature that could do it…” Said a huge, inhuman but more draconian figure as she saw the trail of flames and power radiating far away from him.
