Chapter 236: The Birth of a True Titan!

Yet strangely...

His outer frame of black-and-white lines remained completely intact.

Luke stared at his remaining body for a moment.

’Seems like I haven’t completely f*cked up.’

Because earlier when breaking through, he noticed one thing.

That he was becoming a titan, but his human bloodline was getting in the way.

Which resulted in his three bloodlines deciding to rewrite his existence, and rather than metamorphosis,

they chose to transform into a pure titan, of course at a lower level.

At the start he panicked, because being another species completely was so unreal for him.

But later he accepted it, since nothing he could do would save him.

And because of that his body was already getting destroyed from the inside.

Which Luke felt at the 8th lightning strike.

In the start he panicked, because he thought this method was crazy.

So after talking with the system and finding that this was done by his titan bloodlines and they had their own ways,

at that time he accepted the result. Fortunately, his current form was reducing his pain to an absurd level.

That was why he used this crazy move, because he was not worried about his body anymore.

So this brought a new question.

Would he die if his body was lost?

The answer was simple....

A BIG NO!

All this time, his body had not been completely rewritten at all, instead it was in the process of erasure, while those black and white lines were like a cocoon.

A cocoon which would start the creation of his new body.

A Real Titan Body!

While his soul would be left behind and become the center of creation.

Even the system agreed upon this, or else he would have done something else, not this risky move.

But now he was facing a glaring issue. So glaring that his creation of a Titan body could literally stop the next moment.

"The Energy...."

"Huge amount of energy."

Yes, his fake Cosmic Heart, or at least a peak Bronze fake Cosmic Heart, did not have sufficient energy for creating a real Titan body.

Which was born at minimum A rank.

Though his one would be lower, but still it didn’t have enough energy to create a B rank body.

RRRRRUUUUMBLE!

Another rumble followed through the sky, as Valtharion was angry at the audacity to strike back.

So the whole dark cloud suddenly changed color and became red.

A crimson red.

Even the lightning running through them turned crimson, and the previous hole also filled up completely.

"Valtharion, scamming me was the last thing you should do." Inside the cocoon, Luke’s half body smiled, or at least tried.

Earlier when he was getting beaten by Valtharion, Luke thought about how to get benefits from it.

Then he remembered the novels in which the MC devours the Tribulation.

Of course, that was totally an absurd idea. But he had all the tools for that.

Sadly, his tools were different. Like Void could devour it, but it would not give anything to Luke.

So he chose to trust Myrkhal.

Or more like, Myrkhal’s bloodline.

Earlier in the temple, those ancient lamps held fire which was powering the runes of the whole temple.

But Myrkhal, just after a few moments, was able to get that same power, even in his weakest form.

The power of those beings or methods which had even imprisoned the Origin Titan.

And the last gift of Myrkhal was also this new titan, which could use that power.

So he was betting that Myrkhal’s bloodline would command the other two bloodlines in a way that all the energy would be used to create his new titan body.

’Then let’s do it.’ Luke thought with determination, and without wasting any more time, he summoned Valzareth, before using Void Step a few times to appear in the center of the Crimson Essence Clouds.

’I hope this much essence will be enough.’ His consciousness scanned the nearby area, where the surrounding lightning was coming toward him like he was prey.

But this time they were wrong.

Since Luke entered here now as a predator.

Then it happened, the void lines tried to expand to devour the huge essence, because it was its nature.

But Myrkhal’s bloodline controlled it, and allowed his white lines to devour them or convert them into energy required for building the body.

Soon his consciousness started getting heavy, because he was about to go into a deep sleep.

Until his body fully formed.

’I hope Theia will save me.’ That thought came into his mind, because earlier he had sent Theia away for two reasons.

First, to stop everyone, and also Aurielle.

Second, to prevent her from making any rash decisions.

Since he was sure she would stop him the moment he tried this suicide move by entering the essence cloud himself.

And now it seemed he had succeeded in both plans.

That was the last thought that came into his mind, before Luke slept for real this time.

Without knowing that the moment he slept, tendrils of white lines from his cocoon came out.

And immediately covered the whole area of 100km essence clouds, which disappeared the next moment.

Then they reverted back into the cocoon, where the previous clear cross lines of black and white had disappeared.

While countless mysterious symbols in pure white color, not of Caelith’s bloodline, but of Myrkhal’s bloodline appeared on the cocoon.

"My liege!" Theia’s expression changed the instant Luke disappeared from her Dream Sight.

She immediately vanished from her position and reappeared at his previous location.

But Luke was nowhere to be seen.

Instead...

The essence clouds had completely dispersed. Floating in the air was a strange cocoon.

Half white.

Half black.

Mysterious symbols continuously revolved around its surface, emitting an ancient and profound aura.

Theia’s emerald eyes narrowed.

"My liege." She could still sense him.

But before she could investigate further, her expression became solemn.

"They’re here." Theia looked around.

Earlier, she had used her Ultimate Ability to temporarily stall the incoming A-Rank beings.
