Chapter 19: Creation Magic.

"I have no idea who you are, nor why you chose to fight this far. Nor do I intend to force my dreams of the death of the gods upon you. I simply wanted to know you to know what we fought for and died for... As a reward for listening to me, I will give you my strength. How you use it is entirely up to you. I can only pray that you do not use it for evil. That's all I have to say. Thank you for listening to the end. May the 'blessings' of the gods never reach you". Just as he finished speaking, the hologram body that spoke, pulverized and disappeared into thin air.

At the same time, Nader felt something scratching at his mental defense, knowing it would not endanger him, he silently let it enter inside his mind.

The next instant, he felt some kind of information creep into his mind with a rather unsettling tingle.

When he finished the recharge, his eyes lit up. He realized the content of the information that entered his mind was a magic spell called <Creation Magic>.

With a sigh, Nader shook his head and turned around to go back to where Yue was, who was looking at him with a worried expression.

"Nader... are you all right?" Worried, Yue took his hand.

"Of course, but man, that was a great story."

"Mmm... What do you plan to do after hearing everything?".

"Oh, being honest, I won't do anything. After all, other people's sleep is none of my business. Besides, I don't even know the beings of this world, much less would I enter a war to save their asses. Anyway, we will leave this world sooner or later. As for God, they wanted so much dead... Well, I think I'll end up fighting him since after killing him, he'll give me a lot of upgrades to go to the next world."

"And you, what do you think about it, Yue?"

Even though he already knew the answer his little vampire would give, he still wanted to hear it come out of her mouth.

She, like him, had been betrayed, but unlike him, who was betrayed by strangers, she was betrayed by her own family. She had given all of herself to save her kingdom, yet she was cruelly stripped of her throne and thrown to her fate at the bottom of the abyss.

Just as he thought, Yue shook her little head and squeezed tighter to Nader's arm.

"I will always stay by your side... wherever you go, I will go with you... if you wish to go to hell itself, I will throw myself behind you". She answered her with a soft smile on her face.

To her, Nader was everything, so she didn't impose on others either. Nader would always be her home.

"Umm... I see."

Nader's smile was so beautiful that Yue had to calm her heart so that it wouldn't come out of her mouth. However, Nader's next action made her heartbeat at speeds never before reached.

Nader grabbed her slender waist and lifted her without warning. Yue instinctively hugged him by the neck and locked her leg around his waist. Without waiting, Nader kissed the shy golden vampire as she fully immersed herself in the pleasurable kiss.

The two lovebirds completely ignored the existence of the boisterous bunny they decided to call Yuki.

********

A few hours ago, the three mighty existences had entered through the double door.

What they had found behind it had astonished them.

A huge, bright room as if they were on the surface is bathed in sunlight. Which, in this case, was not necessarily sunlight, but rather was a giant ball that was hanging from the ceiling.

This crystal-like ball illuminated and transmitted the sensation of warmth as if it were sunlight itself.

In this room, they had found everything an existence needed to survive without the need to worry about going to the surface in search of survival supplies.

There were trees, gardens that only needed seeds to grow vegetables, rivers that cascaded in waterfalls through the cracks in the wall with fish living inside, and others.

From this amazing sight, both Nader and Yue speculated that this was actually the lair of the creator of this labyrinth, and at the same time, the end of the floor.

And on top of all this, they had discovered a beautiful three-story house in the center of this sprawling room.

On the second floor was a fairly normal room: it contained a bed, sofas, carpets decorating the floor, tables and chairs.

In the other room on this same floor, there was a dining room that had everything you would find in a kitchen.

But the most incredible thing was that all the furniture, floors and even the walls were clean and without any dust settled on them, it was as if someone was living in this room. However, they had inspected the room with their senses and had not found any living thing apart from them.

Behind the house they had found something that had left them quite satisfied; a small pool about two meters in diameter; in the center was a lion's head with a magic circle behind its neck.

Yue had imbued her mana into it because Nader did not use mana. Then, hot water had gushed out of the lion's mouth, perfect for the two of them to bathe in after they had inspected the entire house.

However, on the second floor, Nader had needed to teleport inside the two rooms because the doors were locked with keyless locks.

The first room was a library containing all kinds of knowledge about the age of the gods.

In that room, they had also found construction plans, a map of this house, and even, the personal diary of the creator of this labyrinth.

On the other hand, in the second room which was a workshop, all kinds of ores, tools, etc. were piled up. Nader had kept everything in the workshop in his Storage, as he thought they would come in handy if he learned metallurgy.

With all that done, they had gone up to the third and top floor. When they had entered, they had been greeted by a human skeleton reclining in a chair in the corner of the room.

On the other hand, the one that had most interested Nader and Yue was undoubtedly the large magic circle that easily encompassed the entire third-floor room.

Nader had left Yue and Yuki outside the magic circle in case something unforeseen happened, and he had entered it.

He had been greeted by flashbacks of when he had first stepped into the abyss of this labyrinth.

After the magic circle gathered all the necessary information, Nader was greeted by a hologram that had the figure of a man who had been left behind in the age of the gods. The hologram was indeed one of the seven liberators and one of the creators of the labyrinth: Oscar Orcus.

Then began a programmed speech by Orcus telling the story of the age of the gods.

How they discovered the evil plot of the gods, and how they found the home of the gods: Asgard.

However, these gods interrupted their plans and turned all their followers of the different races against the liberators.

Basically, it was the same thing Nader had speculated.

After all the speech had ended, Nader had received the magic of the age of the gods: [Creation Magic].

Nader's thought was simple: 'Get everything that could be useful. And he discovered that the magic of the age of the gods was more useful and more powerful than he originally believed.

Of course, when Nader had begun to delve into this labyrinth, he already knew that deep down there was some kind of legacy. However, he thought that at best, it would only strengthen him a little, but the magic he received changed his thoughts and strengthened his resolve to conquer the other mazes.

Although he could not use the newly obtained magic now, he only needed to learn metallurgy skill and merge it with the magic of creation to be able to use it, perhaps even more powerful than it was originally.

*******

"Whew, this is amazing, how many years has it been since I last took a bath?" Nader sighed pleasantly as he laid his body down in the warm water they had discovered earlier.

At this point, he was completely naked, leaving his perfect muscles glistening in full view under the moonlight that was reflected by the crystal ball hanging from the ceiling.

Apparently, it also had a similar function to how day and night worked on the surface.

"It's been a long time since I checked my statuses" he muttered and opened his status panel.

"Not bad at all... although most of my skills and techniques are quite different from what I used before" Nader muttered.

Even though he said that he wasn't complaining about his skills and techniques being different from his past life, instead, he was quite satisfied with his current evolution, after all, each of his skills and techniques right now is the fusions of other skills to create a completely new and powerful one.

"Exile, eh? Although I don't know what he means by Limbo, it's pretty clear that it's a place of purging souls..." muttered Nader and sighed.

A few hours ago, he had obtained this ability after experimenting with his Law of Death, but even he didn't expect such a result as to exile the soul from his enemy's body.

"Heh, I pity my enemies who will have to experience this ability." He said and thought that this was quite a terrifying ability.

If he thought about it from one side, the Exile skill is a perfect skill for torture, since as he knew, the soul damage received is tens of times more painful than the maximum pain of the physical body.

*Squeak* the sudden sound of the door opening, cut off Nader's train of thought and brought him back to reality.

He withdrew his gaze from the artificial moon and fixed his eyes on the incoming figure.

Indeed, it was Yue.

At this moment, she was completely naked, which left no hidden corner for Nader's imagination.
