Odyssey of the Blind God

The power of the Blood Eclipse Moon ability was something that even Nial had yet to discover.

He could only tell that the ability was both a supporting type of ability as well as an attack ability.

Its attacks were not strong but when merged with other means of attack, it would definitely become a powerful lethal force.

However, that was not the most important part. After all, the [Blood Eclipse Moon]'s main power was to devour moonlight and convert it into a type of energy that buffed other abilities and attacks.

Nial could use the darkish crimson energy to merge it with his dark energy, the Essence of Darkness, and even strengthen his black miasma.

Simultaneously, it could enhance the strength of his body and his senses temporarily. This included his mana perception as well!

As long as he was in possession of enough converted moonlight energy, Nial could accelerate the creation process of his sixth and the following three Ancient Origin rings.

This was quite helpful and much more than he had wished for.

In the end, the Blood Eclipse Moon that grew the more moonlight energy it devoured also had other beneficial effects but Nial hadn't studied them yet. The information that had flooded his mind when completing the binding process of the ability was also not very helpful.

He couldn't be sure how big of an influence the Blood Eclipse moon had when released outside his body while he was fighting.

It might even be disadvantageous if his opponent were to destroy the Blood Eclipse Moon, including the tiny grain, that was the essence of his ability.

If that were to be destroyed, his mana core might get damaged, or even worse his ability would get destroyed!

This was just one of the many theories that swarmed through Nial's mind, which was why he believed it might be better not to release the Blood Eclipse moon while fighting. Activating the ability worked without the physical manifestation of the Blood Eclipse moon just as well!

On his way back to the shelter, Nial tested out his new ability. He used the darkish crimson moonlight to insert it in his black miasma.

With [Hodur's Heir] and [Blood Eclipse Moon] activated at the same time, he was drained of some mana but the final result was pretty intense as dark miasma turned crimson.

Sabrina and Hana were willing to become Nial's experimental guinea pigs as they walked through the normal black miasma before they entered the dark crimson miasma.

They felt no big impact at first, but the moment they entered the dark crimson miasma, their heads began to spin and it was near-impossible for them to keep walking straight ahead.

It was as if they had consumed the worst kind of drink to make them lose their balance as it was harder for them to gather enough focus to control mana well.

Nial was quite content with his new ability and he put his search for an ability to rest. In fact, Nial was pretty sure that his biggest struggle would be to find three more abilities that were as powerful as his Innate ability [Mana Sense] the Curse [Hodur's Heir], and his second ability [Blood Eclipse Moon].

This was not only difficult because his abilities were already powerful but especially tricky since he was in possession of the Odyssey seed that gave him control of dark energy, and the ability to create Essences of Darkness.

There was also the Ankh, the Symbol of Life, that was engraved on his Odyssey seed, providing him with more mana and lifeforce, thereby healing his body faster, and allowing him to absorb more mana.

As if that was not enough, the Fairies' Blessing was symbiotic to the Symbol of Life, and their effects overlapped with each other, boosting one another.

Nial advanced much faster than any other human and he could create numerous interesting and powerful runic armaments replacing the need of various abilities.

His confidence in creating various runic armaments that worked as well as the corresponding ability was the reason why Nial wanted to find abilities he couldn't replace with runic armaments.

Unfortunately, this was easier said than done. Thus, he would have to spend quite some time searching for new and suitable abilities in the future.

It was only his fortune that the future was still ahead of him and that he was already extremely powerful and not in desperate need of more abilities.

He could turn his focus to other, and more important things.

"You do realize that buying such a large plot will be enough to write off the entire debt the Heaven's Gates organization owes you, right?" Kristine's voice resounded in his ear all of a sudden, forcing Nial to focus on the people around him.

"Aren't you going over the top? We are talking about one piece of land, not about an entire district…don't tell me the prices of land have skyrocketed that much," Nial said, and he made it look like Kristine was trying to exploit him.

She obviously knew that Nial had no idea about business deals or how to get your money's worth. Thus, she was giving her best for her organization to free itself from the debt it owed to Nial.

"If you keep up that act of yours, I might as well ask for hundreds of tons of ores. You can scrap them together then, while I go to the Elves and take a piece of land from them.

It might even be safer if I were to ask them for some land because I can be sure that their defenses will be much better than what the shelter's defenses will be when higher-ranked dungeons and more dungeons appear," Nial remarked bluntly.

Everyone present knew that the Elves had far more Prometheus-ranked Originals, and with the appearance of more Elves of other sub-races, even the fact that many humans were powerful potential future 'Destroyers' was not of much value anymore.

This was something the Maverick sisters understood pretty well. Kristine grit her teeth and she felt like twisting his neck.

"Then go to your fucking Elves, if you act like that!" She cursed under her breath, but her voice was loud enough for everyone to hear.

"Sis…" Kirlia tried to intervene, worried that the situation might escalate. However, when she looked over to Nial, she could only see him grinning brightly.

This was enough for Kirlia to abandon her plan of mediating and to leave the two most frustrating people in her life alone.

"Just do whatever you guys want…" She threw her hands up in the air as they entered the shelter.

"If you give me the land I want, including all the resources written on the list, and all the permissions mentioned on the backside of the paper, the entire debt will be written off!" Nial said as he willed his mana to throw a piece of paper in Kristine's direction.

Intrigued, Kirlia began to read through the paper as well, just to see a batch of resources that were quite easy to procure.

Both sisters looked at Nial for a few seconds, wondering why he was suddenly being so nice. However, they didn't dare to say anything because they felt weird looking at his smile.

Thus, the sisters ended up turning the page, where they saw a large list of permissions they would have to procure for Nial.

"Guild Creation certificate, trading certificate, special merchant certificate for ability crystals which includes curses and blessings…permission to create your private army….what the hell?" Kirlia mumbled, looking over to Nial, whose expression was carefully neutral.

She felt weird looking at the young man, whose plans seemed to be much more fleshed out and had a larger motive than she had first presumed.

"What the hell are you planning?" Kristine asked, feeling that all the permissions led to only two results.

"Isn't that obvious? I will create an Artisan Guild, and an Organization for Originals," Nial spoke nonchalantly before he made some minor changes to the offered contract.

"Well, precisely both will be a part of the Guild, but I separated them on paper to make managing them later easier."

Not only the Maverick sisters but also Hana and Sabrina looked at Nial in astonishment.

"You… want to open a Guild?" Sabrina blurted out astonished, staring at her brother as if he was an alien.

Nial smiled in response before he nodded his head.

"Do you think I'm not good enough to open a Guild?" He asked, curious about his sister's opinion.

However, Sabrina just shook her head. She was too baffled to answer because it seemed like Nial was serious.

"I like that idea…we need more Artisans, and I feel like your Guild would be different than others…" Hana suddenly said, giving Nial a thumbs up.

Nial's smile widened at the unexpected appreciation and he turned his attention back to Kristine.

"It would be helpful if you can get everything I asked for," He could only say, and Kristine nodded her head after a few moments.

"Because you received a title from the President, you can already register a Guild. As for the land, I can get it as well. The remaining permits will be given to you at a later point, and the same goes for the ores and other ingredients. It should work just fine…I guess…" Kristine said, giving up trying to play around with the fact that Nial didn't know just how much the Heaven's Gates organization owed him.

It was not necessary to fool around anymore and Kristine felt like her sister's disciple. She believed that Nial would lead his Guild in a different way than others, and it might actually be helpful to form a close connection with him.

For sure, it was better to have a powerful ally than an annoying opponent or rival.

Everyone would agree with this, especially in the chaos mankind was about to face in the future.

Nial was happy that Kristine agreed to his requests. He spoke a bit more about the requirements he had for the land and a few other things before he left the four women.

The two masters and disciples had other things to take care of, and Nial was finally alone.

He was exhausted but that was not enough to overpower his overwhelming excitement.

The funds he possessed were not much and most of his 'fortune' had been used up right now. However, the gains he made were definitely worth it.

Nial didn't want to annoy the Elves with his plans to create a Guild. It was obnoxious to request their help every single time something went wrong and it was time for him to start doing things on his own.

There were numerous things he learned from his time outside Jundra and one of the few things was that he had to improve by himself instead of always seeking help from others.

Others may not be able to understand this well but as Runiciers, allowing his creativity to let loose and flourish was extremely important. He may have to learn a lot but it was even more important to experiment a lot as well.

And to achieve this, Nial had asked a young man, who had just recently awoken his Origin, to come to his large workshop.

The young man was missing an arm, and he had no idea why someone with Nial's power and authority had requested him to come to the newly constructed shelter.

He was an ordinary Original, except for the fact that he had awoken his origin not too long ago.

However, to Nial this was more than enough. After all, the success of his experiments and the future of his Guild relied on the young man, and the creations Nial was about to make.
