Chapter 1912: Saint

"The other two races are the slime race and the ogres. The slime race has a special body that can dissolve almost everything, while the ogres are known for their strength.

"The dragon race is the strongest, but at the same time, they have the lowest population. On the other hand, the elven race might also have a low population, but they become equal to dragons through their research.

"Humans adapt to the situation and populate half the world. Nevertheless, the relationship between the races seems to be complicated, so I won’t go to that point.

"Instead, I will tell you about their strength. They’re fighting using their own race’s characteristics. For the dragon race, they’re born with energy and a strong body. With such a high affinity, they’re basically the strongest after they’re born. Once they learn how to wield their power, no one can stop them.

"On the other hand, the elves are using power similar to humans. This power is called Transmutation. It’s the ability to change one matter into a different one. This must be the reason I found a synthetic material that I couldn’t recognize."

Nathan frowned. "What do you mean by changing one matter to another? Do you mean they can turn gold into diamonds?"

Machina shook her head. "No. The essence is combining items, similar to forging, but halfway to creation. They’re combining their energy, which contains the element, with original materials from this world. It will then create something entirely different due to the element their energy contains."

"The humans here are born with elements?" Nathan crossed his arms.

"I’m afraid so. All I know is that the humans here will undergo a baptism that will show their element and affinity. The higher their affinity is, the stronger they will become."

"I guess affinity is like the absorption rate." Nathna nodded in understanding. "What about the classifications?"

"Everyone is using this power. In fact, even the dragon race and the slime race are using them due to their convenience as well as their power. Hence, they divide this stage into 7 realms.

"They are Apprentice, Elite, Master, Grandmaster, King, Saint, and God."

Nathan looked down, contemplating. "It’s definitely similar to what I know, but it’s stronger than I expected. That captain is a master, but his strength is comparable to an arcane class summoner. So, the grandmaster should be similar to a world class summoner.

"Transmutation Grandmaster will be something like world class summoners, while the king level is the one with the power of rules. Once you establish your divine body, you will reach the saint level. True Gods level are Transmutation Gods in this world."

"From what this book tells me, that possibility is most likely. There’s no direct information about them, so we might have to search for a different book." Machina nodded.

"..." Nathan looked up, contemplating. "If that’s the case, we really need to be extra careful in this world. We don’t want a conflict with this world. I don’t think this library has information about outer space. So, I will ask you to find a book about the gods or the world’s map."

"Understood." Machina nodded.

She began scanning again, while Nathan continued his search, wondering if there was anything else he wanted to know.

Meanwhile, Flora and the others had left the mansion.

While it was true that they had their respective missions, they mainly went around to buy stuff. Of course, they had to sell a few items that looked acceptable. Luna or Iris could easily make an item they could sell, so it wasn’t exactly hard for them to gain enough money.

On the other hand, Lord Golzok traveled at his fastest speed to reach another city. He rushed toward the big church and shouted, "Is the saint here?"

"!!!"

"How dare you disturb the saint?!"

"I am Lord Golzok from Esteban Castle. I have an important matter to report to the saint!" Lord Golzok shouted, struggling to break free from the knights that were guarding the place.

They couldn’t just allow him to make a ruckus here, but all of a sudden, the atmosphere turned warmer. The light in the church lit up.

"May I know why you’re searching for me?"

"!!!" Lord Golzok raised his head, finding a young man with blond hair. He was wearing a white gown as he descended from the air.

Lord Golzok lowered his head. "I’d like to ask if Saint Sven knows about a group of saints or possibly gods traveling in the lower plane?"

As soon as he heard it, the saint fell silent. "Explain."

"Not long ago, my knights took down a group of aliens, but they ended up encountering a group of people. Then, an alpha class alien appeared all of a sudden. My men tried to retreat, but one of the people in the group stood forward and cut the alien with just a single stroke.

"It was so fast and sharp that even my knight, who was a transmutation master, couldn’t see its trajectory. The only thing he knew was that the elite class alien along with the lower-level aliens died with just one stroke.

"However, he had suspicion that the leader of the group was the strongest due to him having a disciple, not the woman who killed the alien.

"I couldn’t probe their strength, but because there are six of them, I believe that they’re quite noticeable, so I’d like to ask for the saint’s guidance."

"..." The saint frowned. "Hmm? Are they in your castle?"

"Yes."

"What do they want?"

"I don’t know yet. For the time being, the leader wanted to get into the library, but that was all."

"Are you sure you’re not lying to me?"

"With my name on the line, I haven’t told you a single lie."

"Are they in your castle?"

"Yes. I’ve invited him for dinner. I need to go back as quickly as possible to not raise any suspicion."

"You fool. The moment you left your castle, they would have felt it. Don’t underestimate the saints."

"!!!" Lord Golzok turned pale.

"Go back first. I will ask the other saints to come, and we’ll visit your territory. For now, show no hostility. Also, are they humans?"

"They appear to be human." He nodded.

"All right. You handle the situation there. I will go there as soon as possible."

"Understood."
