I Have Seven Dragon Souls In a cultivation world - Chapter 152
For some strange reason, they seemed to not dislike each other upon contact. In fact, up until now, the relationship between Dante and Klent could actually have been said to be quite good.
But that was all until Dante found something strange with Klent’s sword.
That realisation seemed to flick a switch between the both of them and soon, the true feeling of hate and disgust upon seeing another child of heaven was felt
But this fact only goes to show how powerful the effects being a child of heaven can have. As soon as The effect kicked in, it merely took a few days before the relationship between the deteriorated to the point of conflict.
No matter if it was now or in the future, eventually the children of heaven will have to fight against each other to determine who will bear the full load of heaven’s will!
As all this information was pouring into the heads of Dante and Klent, they just stared blankly into the sky
The state only lasted for a few seconds before they quickly regained the light in their eyes.
Dante and Klent just looked at each other with a much calmer gaze.
The initial hot-blooded anger had now died down considerably.
Now that they knew what was going on they were much calmer.
But just become they were calmer didn’t mean that the animosity between them had gone away. On the contrary, now they knew what was truly at stake, the fights were only going to be much more vicious from here on.
Everyone knew that a calm enemy was always much more of a threat than an angry one, so the calm state of Klent and Dante only went to show the true plots flying through their minds.
Dante just turned toward Klent as he smiled coldly.
“Unfortunately my friend, it seems like it’s not appropriate to continue our discussion here any longer,” said Dante
“How about we continue our discussion in a place where we won’t be interrupted next time?”
“Hahaha!” Laughed Klent
“Dante, it’s almost as if you can read my mind. I was also thinking the same thing.”
“Meet me outside near the beast forest. there we can continue our discussion without any annoying interruptions” said Klent.
hearing Klent’s suggestion, Dante just put a cold smile on his face
“Well, I guess I’ll meet you there then.” Replied Dante
If you could look at them from the outside, the smiles and the warm atmosphere could fool you into thinking that this was simply a common arrangement between friends, but behind their seemingly kind smiles, warm gestured were dark and cruel intentions.
This was the start of the showdown between Dante and Kent ever since they had realised their new titles,
It was the start of the showdown between the Children of Heaven!
…
Hours had passed since Dante and Klent’s confrontation on the training ground.
The sun in the sky above the capital had now set causing a wave of darkness to spread across the whole city.
But even with the overbearing darkness, there were still countless people active in the vicinity near the capital and one such person was Dante.
After taking a short ride out of the capital to the edge of the beast forest, Dante decided to get out there.
Dante had decided to make the rest of the journey on foot.
As Dante was making his way through the forest he wasn’t just idle.
he was constantly plotting and revising the plans he had come up with to deal with his current situation.
But despite Dante’s seemingly paranoid planning, he really wasn’t afraid at all.
Although he and Klent could be said to be quite similar in cultivation realms, he also knew that he was leagues ahead of Klent when it came to pure combat strength.
The disparity between them and Dante’s faith in his strength brought him at least some comfort.
The only problem was that despite Dante’s confidence in himself, he still couldn’t shake off this uncomfortable feeling he was getting.
His instincts were constantly being agitated and telling him that someone, or at least something, was definitely watching him.
But despite Dante’s constant searching and scanning, he could never truly spot something off around him. It was almost like he was being stalked by a ghost!
All of a sudden, as Dante was thinking about this, the feeling he felt of being watched suddenly spiked again, causing Dante to look up to the sky in confusion.
But to Dante’s horror, for a brief second, he could have sworn that he saw a faint golden eye staring down on him from above.
but after rubbing his eyes, the image in the sky was simply nowhere to be seen.
seeing that there was no definite conclusion to be made, Dante just gave up trying to find the source of this sensation.
He simply just chalked it up to his nerves and paranoia after finding out his position as child of Heaven.
However, What Dante didn’t know was that his instincts were actually correct.
Dante was in fact being watched by something in the sky, or more correctly, he was being watched by the heavens themselves!
It was impossible for the Heavens to not be interested in the fight between two of its own chosen people.
For the heavens, each of its chosen children was a heavy investment on the heavens part, requiring the right circumstances, ridiculous amounts of blessings and talent being personally granted by it.
It didn’t make sense for you to invest lots of money and effort into something and to not even bother with its results. And the heavens viewed its chosen children in the exact same way.
So a fight between its chosen would be the easiest way for the Heavens to see if its investments had paid off and in the end regardless of who won or lost, the heavens would be the true winners as at the end of the day the winner would still be serving the purpose of the heavens.
besides even if we ignore all this, there was still a factor that made the heavens interested in watching this fight.
And this simple fact is that the greatest anomaly of the children of heaven would be involved in this fight.
You see, for a child of heaven to be chosen, the heavens must have had a direct path of involvement in their creation.
This could be something as simple as boosting the chosen person’s talent upon their birth, or it could be causing a strange mutation to develop, granting them a special physique.
some times it could even be as arbitrary as just increasing their fortune to allow for more fortuitous encounters during their life.
but the fact remains, that no matter the Child of heaven, in order to at least be called a ‘child of heaven’, you would have at least have been chosen by the heavens themselves.
But this fact only made the situation with the anomaly so alarming.
If normal heavens children could be said to be people chosen by heaven, then the only way the heavens could explain the situation around this anomaly would be to say that it had chosen himself!
An analogy would be to think of the heavens as a baker.
The heavens children are all chosen individuals that had been granted cakes by this baker, with these ‘cakes’ being the various gifts and blessing the heavens could grant to an individual.
This anomaly had come out of nowhere barged into its kitchen, forcefully took the ingredients from the baker and made a cake before gifting it to itself!
And of course, this so-called ‘anomaly’ was none other than our very own protagonist,
Dante Kinsman.
Even right now, just the thought of what happened alone was extremely ridiculous!
The heavens could still remember the feeling of the rules of the world swirling and some being extracted to form something even the heavens themselves weren’t sure of.
At first, the Heavens was outraged at this new development and restricted some of the blessings unique to children of Heaven on Dante.
In fact, the heavens had tried at least twice to exterminate the walking anomaly that was Dante Kinsman.
But after repetitive failures, the heavens had a different idea, as long as Dante was still a child of heaven, then he had to at least follow the basic rules set meaning that he could still also be used for that….
