My World Traveling System: The Harbinger of Death

-----

After the intense powerup that Frank underwent, he decided to rest for the rest of the day, going to bed and sleeping until the next day.

…The next day, Frank slowly woke up from bed feeling more refreshed while assessing all the information he was getting and slowly assimilating it. The light of the sun crossing through the window felt good and warm over his body, and he now felt more filled with resolve to keep going.

There were a lot of things yet to do, such as the revival of his parents (and the heroes), explaining the people of Westwind about the entire story, exploring Terra, and find the other Gods to convince them to cooperate with him and make an alliance, and also, quite possibly, to assimilate all of Terra into his Divine Realm, though he didn't know how he could do this exactly.

Knock, knock!

"Hm?" Frank noticed that someone was knocking on the door, and realized that Gwendolyn was not at his side, although he had felt that she came to sleep at his side in the middle of the night, she was now gone.

Although he could easily recall where she went through his divine senses, he often chooses to deactivate them, as being all-knowing in such slice of life situations often ruined the special thing about enjoying life.

Suddenly, he was greeted by Gwendolyn, Kamei, and Axitl, who had come to bring him breakfast to his bed like a King.

"Surprise! We brought some breakfast for the King!" said Kamei jokingly.

"Dearie, I was thinking that you would like to eat my pancakes once more, as you've not eaten in a while… So here! I brought you a big pile!" said Gwendolyn, wearing an apron and bringing a large plate with over 20 pancakes covered in syrup, cream, and strawberries.

"Did you slept well, Frank?" asked Axitl rather politely, Frank noticed that she was wearing a cute white dress.

Frank felt rather flustered to be treated like this, but he was thankful, nonetheless.

"Ah… After everything that happened yesterday, I felt too tired, my mind was filled with a lot of things… So I went immediately to sleep, sorry about that," sighed Frank, as he drank a bit of the refreshing and warm herbal tea that Axitl brought to him, it felt good to drink something warm.

Gwendolyn sat at his side, as Kamei and Axitl stood around the bed.

"Well, you did do something rather insane. Not only did you absorbed the Origin Core, but you also fought against the miasma inside of it… Oh, and you also drank the miasma sea… Is your stomach okay?" asked Gwendolyn.

"Yeah, the Gluttony Skill has given me the power to devour anything, even this amount of miasma was assimilated at the end," said Frank.

"You're really something else… I guess we could consider you something like a Chaos God like me at this point, right?" asked Axitl as she ate pancakes.

"In fact… Well, I already have a divinity, as my Mana Core has reached Rank 10," said Frank.

"Ah! Seriously? It was true then… Rank 10 really grants a Divinity!" said Gwendolyn.

"Well, we are Rank 8 ourselves and we got our Pseudo-Divinities," said Kamei.

"It was obvious that you mortals might develop a true one after reaching Rank 10," said Axitl.

Frank was surprised by this news but quickly realized that it was true. The aura that his wife and Kamei were exuding was strong and held a great hint of divinity within them!

Gwendolyn seems to have developed the Pseudo Divinity of Blazing Windstorms, while Kamei the Divinity of Holy Light!

Both of them brought them special Abilities similar to his own Divinity, albeit not as strong, but they clearly enhanced their powers to a great deal!

"Amazing… you girls have really grown stronger… I am quite proud," said Frank.

"It was all thanks to your help," said Gwendolyn while being very grateful for Frank having come into her life.

"Yeah, brother, without your help… I would have never been able to fight for myself, and I would have most likely remained as… a normie," sighed Kamei.

"No, I only gave you the opportunity, but it all depended on you to take it and develop it through your own effort. You two have to accept that your effort is also important in your development, I am pretty sure that I didn't just gift you all those stats you gained slowly through training and more, right? I only gave you the power to get them, but it all depended on your efforts," said Frank.

"Geez, you say such sweet things sometimes…" sighed Gwendolyn, as she kissed Frank on his cheeks.

"Okay, okay! I get it… Don't be so humble… Though that's what I like about you, brother," said Kamei with a cute smile.

"Anyways, in other things… That mysterious girl just woke up today," said Axitl.

"Mysterious girl?" asked Frank.

"The girl you brought from the Origin Core," said Gwendolyn.

"Oh! But she's not really mysterious, she's the Origin Core itself, or well, its Avatar, per se," said Frank.

"So… that girl is literally Terra?" asked Kamei.

"Indeed- Wait, that's a good name for her! Terra," said Frank.

"She has been rather calm, though she is slowly opening to us, she's enjoying breakfast with the rest of the family, the Cathyl and the rest of the kids are doing a good job at making her feel part of the family quickly," said Gwendolyn.

"Hah… I am glad. She had a lonely life, we need to make her happy," said Frank, who had experienced Terra's memories of loneliness, and couldn't help but feel a lot of empathy for her.

"She's still quite a mysterious girl… I mean, from where did she really come from? And what are her true powers? I wonder if she could help you not assimilating Terra into your Divine Realm…" said Axitl.

"So not even you know about her?" asked Frank.

"Nope, she's a total mystery," sighed Axitl while shrugging.

"Perhaps the other Gods might have some more clues?" asked Kamei.

"Well, I got Zudithe and Judith memories, and they didn't know either, I doubt Abraddon and Thineas could, but it is worth a shot to ask them whenever we can," said Frank.

"I see… Oh right! About the scorpion girl…" said Gwendolyn.
