Chapter 133: Disgustingly Strong
While Erea was heading towards her own secluded training room, a discussion was happening between an Inanimate and an Animate inside a white space who knows where was placed.
…
“Why didn’t you tell me earlier then?” Aurus could not help but become angry at Kevin as he glossed over the advantages that having a clone would give. If he had heard of these advantages back then when he was told that he was going to fall in great danager, then he might’ve created a clone then and there. No, wait, he didn’t have FP to do so.
“Well, don’t blame me.” Kevin could not help but sigh. He then explained his own thought process to Aurus, making sure he understood bit by bit. “Back then, when you were still a weaker Inanimate, I told you that you would fall under a great danger, right?”
“Yeah, you did,” Aurus replied in agreement. How could he refute something that had happened?
“My expectation was that you would make sure to boost up your energy levels as fast as possible and make sure to trigger the skill before falling into danger. Ain’t that the first thing one does when he or she hears something like that, even if the person who said it was quite skeptical?” Kevin lightly frowned as he continued explaining his thought process.
“…” After hearing such things, Aurus could not help but become silent. Kevin was quite right on this one, it was basically common sense at this point! If someone were to blame, it would be Aurus and his actions.
As he continued to remain silent, he started to ponder over the actions he had done over the course of finishing the inheritance up till now. It was then that he realized.
“I’ve become distracted,” he could not help but mutter to himself. Ever since he left the inheritance, the thought of making the clone was always on his mind, but it seemed that it was always hindered from happening. With such an obvious coincidence like that, he could not help but ask himself, “Why though?”
Eventually, he looked back at Kevin and let out a sigh. “I’m sorry for not following your words, Kevin. I tried boosting up my energy level as fast as possible, but hey, at least I’ve achieved an energy level that surpasses the requirements, right?”
Kevin could not help but blink a few times as a serious expression was plastered on his face.
“We’ll see.”
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Not long after saying that, he raised both of his hands up and waved them around, forming a structure out of mana before directing it towards Aurus.
Weeenngggg….
As the structure passed through Aurus’ body, Aurus felt like he was going through a metal detector, getting the feeling of having all of his secrets exposed, something along the lines. Thankfully, it was only for a short while as the mana structure returned to Kevin and dispersed into motes of mana, being absorbed by him and interpreted into tangible information.
A few seconds later, all of the information from the structure was processed, prompting Kevin to say to Aurus, “Well, your claim of having more energy than required is correct. The amount of energy you have is more than enough to cast their spell, around two to three times than more than usual. Let me take a guess and say that it costs 2500 points of energy to cast the skill?”
“Yes, that would be correct,” Aurus responded and agreed with what Kevin said.
“How much energy points do you have at the moment?” With Aurus confirming his guess, Kevin then asked this question, making Aurus figuratively scratch his head.
“Hmm…let me see…” Aurus said, bringing up his own status screen.
Ding!
It did not take long for the status screen to pop up, but the numbers written on his screen was enough to make Aurus scream “Wait…WHAT THE FUCK?!”

“Impossible…” Aurus could not believe it, nor could he digest the fact that he had these stats. With his current stats, he could already fight against X-grade Inanimates boosted by alliances evenly, and he could even possibly win against them. “How did I get this strong…”
Although he was still astounded as to how he had gotten this strong compared to the last time he checked his status screen, he eventually accepted the fact that he had a lot of skills and stuff that boosted his stats, Allies and Titles being a good part of how his stats had inflated so much.
Of course, Kevin could sense the shock from the tone of Aurus’ voice, prompting him to ask, “What’s wrong?”
Hearing Kevin ask him if he was okay, Aurus could not help but become a bit flustered as he forgot that Kevin was also with him. He figuratively cleared his throat and regained his composure as he answered, “Oh, it’s nothing. It’s just that…”
Just as he was about to tell Kevin that nothing was wrong at all, a question popped in his mind, causing him to go silent for a bit before asking, “Kevin, you do know about the grades of an Inanimate, right?”
“Yeah, I do. C, B, A, S, and X. What about it?” Kevin was perplexed for a bit, only to answer normally afterwards.
After hearing Kevin’s answer, he then asked, “Can you see how much health…or durability in this case, does an Inanimate have before they die? If so, how much do X-grade Inanimates normally have?”
The two questions Aurus asked caused Kevin to ponder in silence a bit. It took him a while to collect his thoughts before responding, “I do have my ways in finding about the lifespan of an Inanimate, yes. Normally, their lifespan would be at around 20 to 30 points in Animate terms, 20 thousand to 30 thousand in Inanimate terms.”
“I see…” Aurus was then enlightened about the average strength of X-grade Inanimate beings, with 40 to 50 thousand being a decent estimate for those that joined an alliance. After realizing that he had over twice as much health than those normal X-grade Inanimates, he could not help but curse to himself, “I’m strong. Disgustingly strong. It’s so fucking disgusting.”
Eventually, he got over this and then said how much energy points he had to Kevin, of course, energy points being FP (Flux Points).
“According to my system, I have 5804 points,” Aurus said to Kevin.
“5804 eh?” Although Kevin was somewhat surprised at Aurus obtaining a big amount of energy, this amount was not enough to astound him. He had seen other entities obtain even more energy than Aurus, but he still had a feeling that Aurus was special.
“5000 and close to a thousand points is enough to allow your clone to change existence levels, and even allow you to change its appearance however you want. Since you’re pumping it with a lot of tour energy, it’s a given that it’ll end up very strong, which is beneficial for the resonance thing I talked about earlier,” Kevin explained to Aurus one more time about the clone.
“The only downside to it as that it takes a while for the clone to be created, but it would be ready to go a week from now at the very most,” Kevin also added, wanting to make sure Aurus remembered this part very well.
“Can only be ready a week from now at most…” Although a week seemed like a long time for Aurus, he did not mind it at all as he planned to boost his stats up to prepare for the inevitable fight between Chonk and his alliance. “That’s fine by me.”
“Alright then.” Kevin nodded as he left a few words of concern not long after. “Before we part ways, make sure that your clone is at a place near where you are so the resonance skill is always in effect.”
“Yep, I got it,” Aurus responded.
Whoosh!
And with that, Kevin’s silhouette started to gradually fade from the white space as fragments of the white space were gradually being replaced by the void. Eventually, Aurus’ body started to fade as well as more and more fragments of the space turned into void until…
Pop!
The white space was gone, bringing Aurus back to where he previously was, the room filled with tons and tons of skill books within the Tempest Cliff Inheritance he owned.
He looked around for a bit and made sure that he was at the inheritance, before making his way back to the green jade hall, and then out of the inheritance back to the alliance.
…
Since the alliance was also located within the Tempest Cliff, it only took over 15 minutes for Aurus to arrive at the alliance’s hall once more. As he landed on the hall’s floor, he could not help but sigh as the aura surrounding him turned serious.
“I have to create a clone and grind my skills up to a considerable level before being worthy of a fight against an Animate,” Aurus said to himself, recalling the powers of an Animate in ISE.
Whenever Inanimate players tried to fight against Animate players, it would normally takes tens to hundreds of high-leveled Inanimate players to critically wound the Animate, not even kill it.
Although his stats seemed to surpass normal X-grade Inanimates, it was still not enough to bridge the gap in terms of conbat power. He still had to evolve to X-grade to do just that.
With those three goals in mind, Aurus stood at the center of the hall in place as he channeled all of his energy towards the outside of the body.
Weeeengggg…
A few seconds later, a bright green energy started to envelope his body, forming a green sphere that was multiple times wider than Aurus’ length.
After he made sure that he had squeeze all of his Flux Points from his body, he then said two words, forcing all of the energy he channeled outwards to gather into a dense green sphere.
Whoosh!
“[Spirit Clone]!”
