My Power is Upgrading Everything (Rewrite)

--- Chapter 155 ---

Watching the seawater level drop down to the ankle, Huo Yuhao smiled in satisfaction because Khiron did a fantastic job on the drainage system.

It's been two days since the sudden flood attack from the monster race, and the land around Black Pearl Castle is covered in a heavy amount of salt, making vegetation die quickly.

Besides the row of trees around the castle that Rosa had grown, no plants are detected for several thousands of miles down to the open sea. Huo Yuhao felt an unpleasant premonition about this situation but knew that essential resources such as food and medicine weren't a problem.

After all, Huo Yuhao solved the problem with Jungle Dungeon 14 months back. It was the best decision he made to keep the Black Pearl Castle kicking on and alive.

Talking about the problem, they received a call from the Admante Family.

The current family head, Alexandra von Admante, suspiciously questioned Mercedes and Clara's absence repeatedly, telling them to return home within a week.

Even though Huo Yuhao doesn't want to let his pawns away, Alexandra is a peak 9th Class Devil Warrior with insane Devil Force and was "faintly." rumored to have raw potential to reach the legendary 10th Class Realm.

Huo Yuhao hated this feeling, but Alexandra felt more threatening than Ogre King he had fought in the "Great One's trial.". It may be Theomars's instinct to survive that tries to warn him.

He has to become stronger and enslave the other sisters, making it easier for him to defeat Alexandra. That's the only way.

Theomars 4th and 5th sisters are twins. They are 20 years old and have low 9th Class Devil Warrior Realms, including powerful Devil Forces to manipulate heaven and earth. Technically speaking, Weather and Mountain.

If it wasn't for seniority, they could have entered the Karuta Empire's warrior association and become a famous duo.

"Mercy, Clara. Come here." Huo Yuhao commented while chewing on dinosaur jerky.

"Master~!!"

Huo Yuhao glanced at them and continued, "I have important jobs for you two. It's simple and easy enough for you two to accomplish."

"I want you to make Harmonia and Triana interested in visiting me at Black Pearl Castle. Use any possible method without attracting Alexandra von Admante's attention. That bitch's sense is sharp."

"Any possible method..." Mercy mumbled, her red eyes glimmering with amusement.

"Anything?" Clara tilted her head.

Huo Yuhao grinned indifferently and answered, "Yes, Anything."

...

...

Five days passed, and Huo Yuhao finally broke into the low 9th Class Devil Warrior realm with the help of Mercedes and Clara. Dual Cultivating with the lower strength benefited him a lot.

He never experienced this in the homeworld because his cultivation is too high, and his Spirit Energy is way purer than anyone. Theomars von Admante is different, he's talented, but everything was "unfortunately." taken away from him.

Simply put, Theomars doesn't have enough luck like him.

Also, System.

Well, Evo hasn't helped Huo Yuhao much in this Emergency Quest. The system is more like a monitor for him now.

Inside a well-lighted room, Huo Yuhao opened the Fairy King's Canvas and rolled down the scroll, revealing a clean sheet. It's not paper or leather, but something different.

Huo Yuhao activated All-Transforming Ink and watched the liquid dripping from his index finger.

"Tracing..." He closed his eyes and rubbed the ink across the canvas, imagining the most basic 1-dimensional thing.

A line.

"Okay."

He opened his eyes and saw a literal line forming into a solid object, rolling off the canvas. Feeling the confidence building up, Huo Yuhao continued to 2-dimensional objects and 3-dimensional objects.

A square and a cube manifested.

["Tracing." has leveled up]

[Tracing(E)]

"It's working. That means I could apply White Room's artistic knowledge to Tracing." Huo Yuhao sat in the lotus position, recalling his memory as Putra Indra Santoso.

His 29 years' worth of life flashed slowly, making him experience the nostalgia, agony, and happiness he had buried for a while.

Drip!

"Huh?" Huo Yuhao unknowingly cried, touching ink from the corner of his eyes. He tried to wipe it off, but the ink kept pouring out with strange emotion.

He tries to recall something.

Something.

Something important to Putra.

"Mom?" He couldn't remember her face.

Her voice.

Mother's presence with Putra in the past.

All of them seemed to disappear one after another.

"Wait... What's mom's name again?" Huo Yuhao isn't talking about Huo Yun'er. He spoke about Putra's adopted mother from his previous life, the warm-loving woman who saved him from the street and imparted an essential piece to his horrible life.

"Ibu(Mom)..."

"Mukamu(Your face)..."

"Nama mu(Your name)..."

"Suaramu(Your voice)..."

"Aku telah lupa semuanya(I forgot all of them)..."

Huo Yuhao smacked his face on the hard floor and rolled around while screaming. "This can't be?!"

"Why can I remember them??"

"AAAAHHHHH!!"

"Your Highness!" Damian entered the room and looked at the fainted Huo Yuhao on the floor. His face paled beyond belief as he hurriedly checked the young man's condition.

"Your Highness? N-No way, he fell into a coma again."

Damian nervously called for the doctor and watched the check-up, listening to the diagnosis with a solemn look.

"There is nothing wrong with Your Highness." The doctor said while checking Huo Yuhao's pulse. "This is Zero Order. He has used all his inner energy."

"But something is bothering me, butler."

"What's it, doctor?" Damian returned attentively.

The doctor stared at Huo Yuhao and continued, "Your Highness's condition was "actually." once described in the legend. The chosen one with noble blood will cry out Ancient Power and unify Titania Bolos to greatness again."

"This prophecy has been told to every Devil Family, including other empires."

"However, even after more than 30.000 years, the chosen one hadn't appeared until now. One year ago, Your highness awakened royal blood, but something bizarre happened, no? He didn't manifest Ancient Power."

"He could be a late bloomer, overpowered by his Devil Force to control shadow."

"One thing for sure, after he wakes up from this deep slumber, a sign will appear..."

"A sign..." Damian clenched his hand in worry.

"I hope it's not a bad sign."

"Your Highness has suffered too much in his life. I wish he could live and form a healthy relationship with a good girl, becoming a husband and father."

Meanwhile, Huo Yuhao drowned in darkness and felt someone hugging him tightly. It was Titania, caressing his black hair gently.

"You're such a silly person, Theo." Titania smiled weakly.

"Why did you push yourself to this point?"

"My threat is simply a drive to make you stronger. Yet, you used All-Transforming Ink to the extreme and tried to create something out of its realm."

"I don't know what you were imagining..."

"But All-Transforming Ink isn't invincible. So, You cannot create something that doesn't possess substance in your mind." Titania couldn't understand what Huo Yuhao was saying when crying in agony. It's a language she had never heard of, even after living for so long.

Nevertheless, she could feel Huo Yuhao's despair and misery.

As if someone slaughtered his whole family before his very own eyes.

"Well, it's not like you can listen to my voice in this condition." She pulled Huo Yuhao's cheek, stretching it a little. "If only you were born 100.000 years sooner... I wouldn't be this lonely."

"To think Valstrax would obtain such an annoying heir. I bet that even the Nox Emperor couldn't see this future with her eyes."

Titania silently glanced at Huo Yuhao's forehead and pondered something deeply. "Good night, Theo." She kissed him, blushing because that was an embarrassing thing to do.

"Aih, so embarrassing..."

...

...

Huo Yuhao opened his eyes and found himself lying on a cloud. He moved around and saw a massive smoke forming above his head, gathering into this familiar silhouette of a woman.

The silhouette becomes more solid and stops abruptly.

"W-Wait! Show me more!" Huo Yuhao jumped from the cloud, stretching his hand to grab the smoke.

Bam!

Huo Yuhao was "immediately." greeted with a marble floor and the familiar scenery of his bedroom.

"..." Huo Yuhao looked at his hand and caught the Fairy King's Canvas.

[You have re-comprehended numerous skills]

[Art Mastery(A)]

[Perfect Body(S)]

[White Room's Martial Arts(A+)]

[Perfect Control(S)

[Weapon Mastery(A+)]

[Cold-Blooded(SS)]

Huo Yuhao felt numb in his head, making everything around him seem more lackluster than before. He checked the re-comprehended skills and saw nothing wrong with them.

"Mot-!" He mumbled and hissed in pain. An annoying headache appeared out of nowhere, attacking him like an annoying crowd of bees.

Huo Yuhao attempted three more times to call Putra's mother, and the headaches were "instantly." triggered every time. "Fuck..." He cursed while lying down and stared at the ceiling.

"Fuck."

"Fuck."

"Fuck."

"Fucking Hell..."

"Your Highness?" Damian entered the room with a bowl of warm water.

"You finally awake!"

"Thanks, God(Tania)!"

Huo Yuhao sighed in defeat and sat on the floor, leaning against his bed.

"What happened when I fainted, Damian?"

Damian cleared his throat and replied, "First of all, congratulations on your recovery, Your Highness. It's been two weeks since you fell asleep."

"Two weeks." Huo Yuhao couldn't help but frown.

"Have the monster race used this chance to attack us?"

The butler shook his head and added, "No, we haven't detected any monsters in the last 15 days. They have been silent and tame for some reason."

"How weird." Huo Yuhao commented lightly.

"Indeed." Damian nodded in agreement.

After thinking for a while, Huo Yuhao told Damian to prepare a warm bath and meal for him. Even though 9th Class Devil Warrior doesn't need food to survive, he needs to taste something right now.

Dipping himself in the bathtub, Huo Yuhao opened the status window and was surprised for a moment.

"This is..."

"Devil Trigger?" Huo Yuhao touched the system panel.

[Name: Devil Trigger]

[Type: Active/Buff]

[Grade: SS]

[Description: Ignite the Ancient Devil's Blood within your body and trigger True Devilification, increasing all your attributes tremendously for one hour]

[Cooldown: 24 Hours]

Huo Yuhao gently rubbed his chin, curiously wanting to try Devil Trigger here. However, it might cause destruction, and the cooldown is a whole day.

"I'll test it later." He enjoyed the warm water.

"As for the other skills... Pretty self-explanatory."

"White Room's Martial Arts, huh? That's something I haven't heard in a while."

While Huo Yuhao was recovering from a deep sleep, Mercy and Clara faced their older sister with heavy tension in the room. They should have returned to the Admante Family two weeks ago, but the capital ordered them to do an emergency task. It was to help the Merchant Group from the monster wave in the south.

"Take you a while to follow my order..." Alexandra commented indifferently.

Mercy put on a calm facade and replied, "Well, what can we do? Capital's emergency task is rarely to happen, sister."

"Not to mention the monster has three 9th Class on their side."

Clara followed Mercy's lead and added, "We have to fight them for twelve days and recover our inner energy first, 1st sister."

"Is that so?" Alexandra grabbed a cigar, burning it with a match.

"Do you have fun?"

"Pardon?" Clara returned with a confused expression.

Alexandra released a big puff of smoke and asked, "Do you have fun with Theo? You're not dumb, Clara. Stop making me repeat myself."

SWOOSH!

An unimaginable pressure released from Alexandra, making both Mercy and Clara kneel on the floor. They breathed heavily and looked at the woman before them like she was a monster.

"I warned you guys already." She put her legs on the desk.

"Don't touch Theo ever again. We agreed to leave him dying in that castle one year ago."

"Right?" Her voice is piercing their eardrums.

"W-We understand, 1st sister." Mercy and Clara responded. This level of presence is similar to or even higher than their master.

Alexandra swiped her hand and launched both pink-haired sisters outside, closing the door with pure psychokinesis. She killed the cigar by rubbing it on an ashtray, glancing at the picture frame on her desk.

A boy with black hair and brown eyes is smiling happily, hugging Alexandra with such warmth.

"Theo... Why did you stay alive? Why can't you die?"

"Sister is living full of sin already. Please, Don't make me lose control and go there personally to violate you again. Ahh." Alexandra's breathing becomes slightly heavier.
