Chapter 1605 Grandmaster Eren



Chapter 1605 Grandmaster Eren

A Grandmaster Ranked breakthrough was initiated when the world of Anfang was in chaos.

Eren had practically skipped toiling his years away stuck in the Master Rank.

The emotions tied to the Seven Sins that Eren's soul was compelled to nurture after coming into contact with his divine throne had a profound impact.

This connection resonated with his current vessel, enabling him to break through numerous Elemental Attainment barriers all at once.

As Eren advanced in his Ranking Journey, progress became increasingly challenging. His path was so vast that an average Ranker would struggle to advance beyond the Adept Rank even with centuries of preparation.

Eren's multiple Elemental Attainments signified the potential for numerous barriers in his path. Under normal circumstances, achieving a breakthrough into the Grandmaster Rank would have taken Eren at least seven centuries even with his demonic Abilities added into the equation.

However, when Eren ceased being an ordinary Ranker, stepping into the world of the divine, all those Elemental Attainment barriers disappeared. The rapidity of this change dumbfounded Layla and Eliza.

Suddenly, Eren's B-Rank mana core collapsed from within, generating mana storms in his vicinity. Despite the existing calamities, the Elemental Attainment manifestations caused by Eren further added to the chaos of the world.

Eren swiftly formed a new mana core within him, absorbing A-Rank mana that belonged to the Grandmaster Ranked entities.

This marked the fastest-ranking breakthrough in Eren's life. Despite Alephee having forewarned him, he found it hard to accept that he had truly become a Grandmaster Ranker.

"Miss Timeless… she was correct in her speculation," Eren mumbled to himself while glancing at Alephee. She was occupied with managing the Soul Seed Insertion Array Formation he had entrusted to her. Though focused on her task, Eren sensed her happiness for his breakthrough.

'You, me, and Reen. We'll celebrate this breakthrough of mine in due time. So just bear with it for a while, will you?'

Eren conveyed to Alephee through their Soul Space connection, prompting her to look at him and nod with a smile. Surveying the surroundings, he noticed that his foes and allies had departed to attend to their own concerns.

'Hmm. I don't blame them,' the butcher ruminated, observing the signs of widespread destruction. He sensed that the repercussions of his actions would gradually unfold, altering Anfang's destiny despite the Sages' attempts to control the situation with their S-Ranked powers.

Experiencing the newfound powers of a Grandmaster Ranker coursing through his mana circuits, Eren raised his hands before him, reflecting on the sensation of touching the divine throne in the Celestial Court.

"This power. I can make use of it."

ƈοm Eren's emerald green eyes sparkled with determination as he sensed his soul's different reaction to the world around him. It was as if he had been looking at things while his eyesight was compromised. And then suddenly, he was given the right eye gear to compensate for his deformity.

He felt a surge of wrathful emotions emanating from afar as if he had become a beacon for various sentiments, particularly those tied to the seven sins. Only now did she understand why Beelzebubs had focused on cultivating the emotions of Gluttony and Demonmir had focused on eliciting anger and wrath from those who met him.

Although his body was mortal, Eren's soul had touched the divine, placing him beyond the classification of a regular Ranker. His interaction with mana had transformed, enabling him to wield and cast spells with improved range and efficiency, influenced not only by his recently attained Grandmaster Rank but also by his status as a demi-god.

"Time to deal with those two."

Eren muttered to himself, observing the situation within the secondary Birdcage Barrier created by Eliza and Demonmir. With a snap of his fingers, the already deteriorated isolation barrier consumed the Enderflames and Demonmir's Elemental manifestations, vanishing into thin air.

As the dust settled, Eren witnessed the outcome he anticipated. Eliza had thrust her sword into Demonmir's heart, albeit at the cost of her left arm.

The battle between Eliza and Demonmir concluded, marking Eliza's victory. Was it her victory to claim though? Even the victor herself asked this question to herself.

***

Eliza had heightened the potential of her spells and attacks, displaying a newfound determination while fighting Demonmir. She had unlocked her bloodline completely, transforming into a dragonoid to gain an advantage in the battle against him.

Similarly, pushed to his limits, Demonmir experienced personal growth during the battle with Eliza. For the first time, he accessed the dormant potential of his draconic bloodline, assuming the form of a dragonoid.

Despite Demonmir's newfound power, Eliza's greater experience and control over her bloodline abilities allowed her to dominate the fight. She cornered Demonmir, pushing him into a state of desperation with each passing moment. She even made use of the Birdcage Barrier against the man, giving her the advantage she needed against him.

Finally, driven to the brink, Demonmir succumbed to his anger, deciding to unleash Samael's soul fragment to eliminate Eliza, despite the risk of being suppressed by Anfang World's Will.

Just as Demonmir aimed to activate his demon soul fragment, an unforeseen event occurred. Eren disrupted the World-Encompassing Array Formation, causing such significant chaos that it affected the very essence of the time and space fabric of the entire world.

Subsequently, the manifestation of Anfang World Will emerged before Eren, imposing a suppression that neither he nor Eliza could overcome. To add to this, a higher entity exploited Eren's disruption in the divine array formation soon after, descending upon Anfang and severing Demonmir's connection with the Demon Prince of Wrath with her mere presence alone.

As a result, Demonmir failed to ignite his demon soul fragment, as Samael's consciousness remained dormant within him, hindering his use of demonic powers to their maximum potential.

The pill of regret always tasted a bit bitter to swallow. Demonmir acknowledged that he should have taken Eliza seriously from the beginning, using all available means to eliminate her.

But now? He was as helpless as Reen was during the Lazarus Project.
