Chapter 11 - Celestials

[You have angered a celestial!]

Another system notification appears

[You have lost favourability with a celestial]

"Errr okay" says Arthur as he looks confused.

"I'm sorry about that, but it's..". He doesn't get to finish his sentence as he gets teleported into a different realm.

He appears in a dark lair and as he looks around he sees pillars faintly and looks down at his feet to see a red carpet. 

CLICK

He hears it come from infront of him and fire torches on either side of him start to get lighted. It begins behind him and works forward.

"Do you not know whose presence you stand in?" says a voice.

Arthurs whole body is flung to the ground.

"I'mmm sorry for killing the Wolven." he says as the words barely get out.

The king says "Huh" sounding rather perplexed. 

"How did you receive my power?" he says as he sits in the throne. Arthur can barely see or speak.

Arthur sees a system message right infront of his face.

Arthur gets released from the king's ability and goes into auto pandering mode.

He gets down on one knee and says "I apologize my liege for not knowing I was in the Prescence of a great deity."

"I learnt this ability from copying another human". "I apologize for doing so" says Arthur.

Arthur is a skilled panderer as it was a unique survival tool he had.

"What is your name mortal?" asks the king. 

"Arthur Aldridge sire" he replies.

A fierce killing intent is released from the king and he starts to choke. He tries to get words out but can't.

The king calms himself down and whispers to himself "If he learnt it from someone else then that means that bastard got in contact with a mortal." as he has his hand on his chin.

"Who did you learn this ability from?" asks the king and now Arthur changes. Fierce eyes of a tiger as he tries to pierce the king.

The king smiles and understands him. "Here have this, but the rest you have to learn yourself".

[You have unlocked master of exodus]

[Skill: Dismantle]

[The ultimate counter with increased power per strike]

"Woah!" "Thank you sire" says Arthur with a fat ugly grin on his face.

"I will be watching you!" says the king as Arthur disappears from the throne room. "I will erase you from existence this time you bastard" says the king with a violent tone. His anger alone shakes the foundation of the area.

Arthur gets sent back to rift and he feels the wound on his arm that he forgot about and screams and writhes in pain. He drags his body like a slug on the ground to drain the corpse of the alpha. He reattaches his arm but is not completely healed. 

With one arm, he starts to take apart the corpse and hears something behind him. Arthur jumps up into a tree as he sees the 2 goblins walk up and get closer to the wolf carcass. "They must be scouts" he thinks to himself.

As the goblins communicate with one another, Arthur stands there in-between them and in one swing cuts both of their heads off while his left arm is dangling. Arthur tries his best butchering all the corpses and leaves, while storing all of the carcasses and mana cores inside of his inventory.

Arthur returns to the cave and walks past the projection. He sees Mia still asleep and drops to the ground next to her. "Long day" he says as he sighs.

He stays on the floor for several minutes before bringing out her phone and recording a video of himself sending her a message and giving her an update.

He goes into his pod and prepares the regen shot. "Hopefully i'll see you soon Mo..." He feels asleep as the regen shot registers.
