Reborn as God: The strongest system

Esdras returned back and comforted Celine, soon she went back to sleep and Esdras left the room. He climbed up one of the few towers that remained intact in the fortress.

At that very high peak he felt a refreshing breeze blowing on him, bringing him a sense of peace.

He had consumed three Origin points, two in the first divination and one in the second. This was a costly ability.

Especially since Origin points were very hard to acquire, and he still didn't figure out a way to get many of them, except for clearing dungeons.

He may even has to be the first to clear the dungeon in order to get anything. This was a hard currency.

To be honest, he wanted to define the future of the world to verify the truth.

But he was actually apprehensive of the backlash after all, if even a monster like that, was it scared of it, and someone like him probably wouldn't be able to withstand it.

So he decided to hold on for a bit. Instead, he decided do use eight points to increase his talent. The better his talent, the faster he would be able to grow.

With a thought the screen that only he could see flashed and a message appeared.

[Error! Unqualified actions cannot be approved.]

[Further enhancement is only possible after absorbing one or more divine shards.]

Esdras was dismayed, to think that he would face such a letdown. So, for some reason, his talent could not be upgraded above level three without absorbing the next divine shard.

But the problem was, he did not even know where the next divine shard was.

However, now that he could use divination not only could he figured out where the divine shard was hidden he could also figure out the best time to take it.

Divination was such a powerful ability.

The problem was the amount of origin point this would cost, what is it worth it to use his few remaining points on this?

He's talent was already good right now it was just that he was lacking time and resources, i.e spells. That being the case he still would prefer to know where the shard was.

But perhaps he should wait on it, it was not an easy decision. It was because not all divinations cost the same amount someone more costly than others.

So instead of using any more origin points he decided to hold onto them until he made up his mind.

Seeing that he was highly dependent on dungeons he figured that he should create some kind of organization to seek out dungeons out there.

He only found this one by complete accident, finding dungeons that are scattered throughout the world will be extremely difficult, especially since he had to learn spells and to perform duties for the magic tower.

There was another way that you could check up on that pharaoh's claims without using any origin points. There was another tab in the system, which indicated the level of the world.

The first time he checked it, the world was at level 2.5 which he found odd back then. This time it look like this:

Arandos, world level: 2.6

It had indeed increased, this was proof that the level of the world was actually increasing. It was indeed, as that pharaoh said. At least about this part.

However, it was still 2.5 just a month ago and it increased right now of all times? Was that a coincidence?

He could not help but remember that he was the one who discovered and cleared the first dungeon in Arandos. For some reason that felt to him like a trigger. And he was the one who pulled it.

He also remembered one of the messages that he got when he cleared the dungeon, it said: the mirror are merging.

And the pharaoh said that the shadow realm in the spirit realm we're considered the mirrors of the material world. This meant that he accelerated the arrival of the apocalypse himself.

He could not be sure of anything else, after all, the best lies always had some bits and pieces of truth, mixed into them. However, he was still ignorant and lacked a lot of information.

He could imagine just how easy it would be to trick him. It was no different than the thousands and hundreds of thousands of scammers that manage to scam tourist.

He had to level the playing field in order to actually protect himself. And he knew just how to attempt doing that. Although he was not sure what he could get out of it, but it was a start at least.

Next, he turned his attention to another trait that was previously grayed out, Memory slots. He did not know when he was able to use this memory slot precisely, but if he had to guess that it was probably when he became a rank 2 being.

Finally, he gathered his courage and focused his mind on the memory slot. And suddenly a lot of information was injected into his mind.

There was a lot of general information about the universe, and material worlds, the planes of existence, the great void and the great powers that collide with one another all the time.

He also understood why the pharaoh use the word mortal so much, it was, because in the classifications of the great worlds. Beings of ranks 1-4 are consider mortals.

Beings of rank 5 and 6 were considered Higher beings, creatures that have shared that mortal coil and deserve to rule over lesser beings. Rank 5 was called the realm of lords.

He did not get much information about the ranks after that.

But he didn't get a lot of information about the levels of the worlds how they were classified, and the huge problem that was facing him right now.

The shekels of the divine shard. There was a rank limit put on him according to the amount of divine shards he had.

And right now because he had one divine shard, his limit was rank 3. If he wanted to increase his limit, he needed to absorb another divine shard.
