Chapter 18 - Blue crescent moon physique

I was shocked, watching this scene. All the Spirit and ghosts are now kneeling with their head touching on the ground.

"Sure, I am in the hell; he must be some sort of god," kritos sigh.

As the weird man rested his hand on my shoulder, a sudden current pass-through my shoulder to my whole body.

"ahh, w-what, are you doing?" kritos cried out.

Again, my consciousness starts fading, but this time, it was different.

With a smile on his face, the man said," You are cursed, my child."

"What?"

Ignoring my question, he said, "remember it is not in the stars to hold our destiny but in ourselves."

"What with destiny, can you tell me," I asked him.

"You will find it when you realize the right path. Does the walker choose the path, or the path the walker?" After saying that, he disappeared from my sights.

Like a vortex, my head starts spinning.

*****Normal POV******

In a dark room, a boy is sleeping on the floor. Abruptly, his eyes start to open one by one.

He mumbled, "where am I? I can't remember how long I've been lying here."

After a while of looking around and checking his body, he cheerfully said," I am alive."

"That man, This must be the work of him. If I ever meet him, I will surely repay his favor 100 folds." kritos declare.

Suddenly he heard a warm voice,

Kritos was shocked by seeing his status; his mouth was wide open.

"What a sudden increase in the status; I also got a new ability," he thought

"System, why is my new ability is locked," kritos asked

[Ding...]

[Recommended host to increase body cultivation or get the blue crescent moon devil bloodline( SS Rank) to unlock this ability]

"Good system, you played well. Giving me B rank talent and asking for SS rank bloodline, am I joke to you," Kritos said with a blank face.

[Ding...]

[Certainly not host, you deserve it.]

Ignoring the insult, kritos said," Nevermind, I will try to increase my body cultivation. Anyway, I'm in the peak mortal stage."

The light of dawn seeped into the kritos room. He rubbed his bleary eyes and walked to the window. There was a pearly glow in the sky.

"I'd been unconscious for the whole night. ahh, a new record."

Shifting his gaze from the window, he walked to the door and opened it.

"I feel like I haven't eaten food for centuries."

He walked down the stairs, shouting, "Mom, where are you? I need breakfast."

"Go, first wash your hand and mouth, then I will prepare something for you," Radha said.

"Ok, mother."

Wiping sweat from his face in front of the bathroom mirror, he accidentally saw his body; there was not much of a change in his body other than an increase in height.

After a moment later, a towel in his hand, kritos comes into the dining room while washing his hair. His father was busy with his work, so he was not there.

Sitting in the chair, he started eating breakfast while his mother was preparing for more stock.

Without batting an eye, he starts eating the food like a glutton; his mother was shocked by the sudden increase in the diet; she thought," perhaps he is working hard and requires more energy,"

After devouring all the food, he starts practicing martial arts in the yard while experiencing an increase in power.

"Amazing, I'm two times stronger than yesterday," kritos thought.

"With this strength, it'll be easy for me to kill normal monsters in the outer region of the forest."

After exercising his body, he made preparations for his little adventure in the forest.

Nameless forest

With a knife in his right hand, kritos begin his slaughter; it was difficult for rank 0 normal monster to withstand kritos assault.

He heard many systems prompt, and he couldn't prevent himself from laughing like a hyena.

Sitting on the top of a tree branch, a boy was giggling. "Haha, I am rich now, can't hold myself from staring at it many times," kritos said.

"According to the mysterious book, I need many unique ingredients and pills to further increase my body cultivation after the breakthrough of the mortal stage realm. Without money and alchemist talent, it would be tough," kritos thought

With a smile on his excited face, he opens the "Talent creation" tag from the menu."

[Ding...]

[Talent creation]

As he said, a text type field opens in his mind where he can tell which type of talent he would create.

"Haha, let's see what I can create with this amount of SP."
