Chapter 15 - Mysterious book

Body cultivation generally means strengthening one's own mortal body. This cultivation path has many advantages as the warrior can jump to fight upper ranks and can become invincible in its own realm compared to ordinary cultivators.

At later stages of body cultivation, the body can become as hard as a Divine Artifact or Inferno artifacts.

In a hall, a handsome man with long black hair, rough skin with an athletic build, Diamond face with straight black eyes, eyebrows like an eagle, was standing in front of the white beard old man.

"Kritos, today you look very excited; what happened? Did you get a girlfriend?" Lakhan said.

"No, no, grandpa, I believe in love after marriage, and with my talent and cultivation, it's challenging to get a girl who truly loves me," calmly kritos said.

He knows that he can't live an ordinary life. His younger brother gave him this life by sacrificing himself.

He has to take revenge first and exterminate the demon race from this world; there is no time for some lovey-dovey love in his life.

As Lakhan heard his words, he denies kritos words by moving his hand.

"There is, my boy, someday you will meet her," After a pause, he continues, "You know at your age, there was a girl whom I love, yes she was your grandmother."

A tear comes out from Lakhan's eyes, remembering his young life and a beautiful girl beside him.

Kritos's maternal grandmother died from an illness when Radha was five years old.

"Grandpa, it's ok, now I am with you, don't try to recall the past; it will only give you pain," said kritos while putting his hands on his grandfather's face trying to remove tears from his eyes.

"Haha, I know, but sometimes I remember her, forget about it, tell me, why are you here? Do you need anything,"

Awkwardly kritos said," I had reached a limit in my body; without some technique, it will difficult to increase my powers. Can I get access to go on the 4th floor of the clan tower,"

It is shocking for even Lakhan that kritos reached this degree in his mortal body.

"Yes, you can go anywhere, my boy."

He then took a badge from his pocket and gave kritos.

"With this, you are free to go anywhere in the clan tower, even in the treasure section, consider it is a gift from your grandfather," with a chuckle Lakhan said.

Kritos was stunned; he doesn't know the true value of this badge, but it must be the highest-ranking badge, allowing someone to visit the treasure section floor.

"Thank you so much, grandpa; I will never forget your kindness," kritos said.

After some time, kritos decided to take his leave from the hall and to visit the Tower.

When he was leaving, Lakhan said, "Boy, remember, due to your soul beast absence, you can only cultivate your body up to the peak of the mortal realm after that; it will only give you pain, without any success."

After leaving the clan hall, he decided to take some break and rest in the shadow of a nearby tree.

It was the grisma Ritu, and the sun was at his peak.

(Author note: Grisma Ritu: Sanskrit word, which means the hot season(summer season))

"Let's go; the sun has gone for the launch," kritos said, seeing the sun hid behind the clouds.

Dwivedi Tower, Dwivedi clan, Rewa city

"So many guards, it is nearly impossible to enter without a clan badge," kritos thought.

Kritos passed away from the guard by seeing the badge; they don't know which level of authority this badge holds, but certainly, only someone high rank in the clan can get this type of badge.

He enters the warehouse; presently, there were many members of the dwivedi clan present on the ground floor.

When the nearby clan member notices him, they thought, "why he comes here, this place is not for cripples."

But they stayed silent; after all, he was the clan head's favorite grandson. What will happen to them if he tells his grandfather about them, saying such harsh words directly to him.

He started to climb the stairs to go upstairs.

"What a lucky fellow," said a middle-aged man with some jealousy.

"Unfortunately, he is cripple; he must be trying to see some mortal cultivation technique,"

"Yeah, unfortunately, the god cursed him with a cripple body; I had watched his determination and will," said an old man having one stick in his hand for support.

4th floor, Dwivedi tower

A middle-aged man checked his badge and said," Welcome, young master, you can take anything from here."

The middle-aged man was the caretaker of floor 4, having the cultivation of rank 3 Foundation warrior and the strongest subordinate of uncle Karan.

After greeting him, kritos entered the 4th floor to take a look at the body cultivation techniques.

"Iron body cultivation: A simple body cultivation technique to make the body hard like iron,"

After reading it for 15 minutes, he said, "Not suitable for me; I need something which can increase my stats in one month,"

Most body cultivation techniques are hard to cultivate; it takes much longer time than QI cultivation, and the higher level of body cultivation are legends to ordinary folks. So, Rarely, someone cultivates with the body.

4 hours later,

"Fuck, I am going to become crazy. Even after reading 16 books, I did not find a single book that satisfies my requirement."

He laid down his body on the floor for rest; suddenly, he saw a rusty book. Unknowingly he approaches there.

"What the fuck, why there was a book with the half pages missing." kritos mumbled.

He moves his hand to see what is written in this book, but unexpectedly he heard a voice,

[Ding...]

[Sensing death law]

[Error...]

[System can't recognize this character]

[System will shut down for 1 hour to learn this language]

"What?"

"System, are you there? Tell me, what is death law?"

There was no response from the system; he understands now, the system has undergone a shutdown for 1 hour to learn this mysterious character.

There was an eye-catching word on the cover of the book, D҉ e҉ a҉ t҉ h҉ g҉ o҉ d҉ s҉ h҉ I҉ v҉ a҉
