Odyssey of the Blind God

The Dojo master was shocked when he heard what Nial had achieved easily.

It didn't take him much effort to break through Khain's natural mind protection and to force him to surrender after recently binding a new ability.

"What is the name of the ability you bound? Is it related to submission?" The Dojo Master was bewildered but Nial only shrugged his shoulders.

In Nial's opinion, it was quite obvious what ability he bound to his mana core but it would be funnier to make others question if it was truly [Mental Control] or something else.

Seeing that Nial didn't answer, the Dojo Master was a little dumbfounded, especially after the human Original had already told him a lot about his body's secrets. However, it was not as if he could force Nial to speak, which was also why he turned silent.

"I would like to continue to test my ability. If there is nothing else for me to do here, I will take your leave," Nial said with a faint smile on his lips and the Dojo Master nodded his head before he turned his attention to Khain.

The young Valxian required some treatment to make sure that his mind wouldn't sustain any injuries after what had happened.

Meanwhile, Nial left the pagoda with Ryu by his side.

"Let's see how powerful my new ability truly is!" Nial stated as he swung himself on Ryu's back. The wingless Gryphon chirped out in joy and he rushed to the Guild hall while Nial spent some time taking a look at all the missions in the Guild's mission catalog.

When they reached the Guild hall, the receptionist who was already accustomed to Nial's unique requests greeted him.

"How may I help you today, Sir?" He asked with a bright smile on his face.

"I want to complete the C-rank Mission [Territorial Domain Conquest], and all the 148 missions that are located in the same territory!" Nial answered confidently and his words made the receptionist's bright smile fade in an instant.

"You want to accept all these missions...Sir? Are you sure?" The receptionist asked after a minute of silence and Nial answered him with a nod.

"I know about the Guild hall's rules as well. If I fail to finish the missions in the given time, I will have to pay a small fee for failing my task, so don't worry about that. I will complete all missions quickly enough!" He assured the nervous-looking receptionist after a while when he noticed that the young man wasn't moving a single inch.

"That...is not the problem Sir...I don't want to be responsible if something were to happen to you...are you sure that you want to take these missions, Sir?" the young receptionist asked again, his voice filled with concern.

Nial understood what the young man was so worried about but Nial made a simple gesture of waving his hand off to make it seem as if there was nothing to worry about.

"I will take care of myself, don't worry!" He said with an air of confidence, and the receptionist nodded his head meekly as he followed Nial's order to accept 149 Missions at once.

"Please take care of yourself," The young receptionist said after completing the formalities. Nial smiled in response before he turned around to leave the Alliance City for a few days.

It was time for him to start conquering a small territory that was crowded with dungeon beasts, dungeon portals, and certain existences that should have been taken care of much earlier already; Undeads!

Nial accepted all the missions especially since there were Undeads. He wanted to test something, which is why he traveled with Ryu for three days until they reached the region where all 149 Missions were to be completed.

Taking a deep breath, he tried to steady his nerves and a reeking stench filled his nose. Nial wrinkled his nose in disgust before his expression changed once again.

"Let's see how strong [Dominion] truly is!" He said and Ryu chirped out as he shot toward a group of Ghouls at the Mirae rank.

Some of the Ghouls were human-like and were walking on two feet while the rest were mostly walking on four or six feet. Nial ignored all of this as he activated [Dominion] by using his dark energy as an energy supply instead of mana.

He tested something and wanted to see if everything would work according to his plan.

"You guys, enter the Kilav cliffs, bring me Juvaline corals and 1000 Origin-ranked Piolar Fishes without infesting them!" Nial ordered as his eyes turned pitch-black before they began to glow eerily.

The Ghouls had just charged in Nial's direction to attack him when they froze in place. It took them a few seconds to turn around but once they had done that they headed straight to the dungeon portal he had spoken about.

"Ah, and bring me all the Essence crystals and special things you find in the Kilav cliffs dungeon!" Nial added as an afterthought when he perceived a change in the mana around their heads.

It was not difficult for him to tell that [Dominion] altered the thoughts and behavior of the Ghouls. This was pretty interesting and exactly what Nial had wished to happen.

When he spread out his range of perception and his [Mana Sense] he began to lick his lips when he sensed just how many suitable targets there were in a range of 50 kilometers for him to choose from.

The territory he was supposed to clean of all their overpopulating dungeon beasts and the various dungeon breaks that occurred around that location was several hundred kilometers in length and width. Thus, nobody really wanted to accept this mission, especially if most of the dungeon monsters around were either at the Origin or Mirae rank rather than the Prometheus rank.

It wouldn't be useful for any Original at the Deux, let alone Keltian rank to travel a day to waste more than a week to clean up a territory if they weren't capable of using large-scale attacks just to earn a few million contribution points.

They could earn much more in a shorter time when advancing to the Keltian rank!

Furthermore, the corpses, Origin crystals, and other drops of most dungeon beasts at the lower ranks were rather...weak, to put it simply. Thus, they wouldn't make up for the 'little' compensation one could get from conquering the surrounding region.

Nial's plan was a little different than others would attempt. He was ready to use the monsters all around him to complete his missions while he would continue using [Dominion] with his dark energy to force all monsters up to the Peak of the Prometheus rank to heed his commands.

And once their missions were completed, he would let all of them loose and force them to fight one another until none of them would be left alive. Afterward, he could do a clean sweep of the battlefield by storing the bodies of the deceased, receive the rewards for completing the missions and rake humongous extra profits for selling millions of bodies.

That was what Nial had in mind and controlling Undeads was, by far, the easiest way to achieve everything he wanted to attain. They were tireless and near-mindless existences that could be controlled rather easily.

How could Nial not be interested in gaining control over Undeads now that he was in possession of such a powerful ability as [Dominion]. It was perfect for the given situation and Nial exerted it while shrouding everything with his mana as if it was his domain.

"Pay heed to my commands from now on!" Nial spoke in an imposing manner and all the dungeon beasts looked in his direction whether they wanted to or not.

Once Nial figured that everything worked out as he had hoped for, he began to order around the dungeon beasts.

Their intelligence was not at a high level, which was why they followed his orders without any issues. However, that made it also a little bit more difficult for him to make them fulfill his wish.

There was no way that they would understand complex orders. This was also why Nial thought about giving them easy orders such as,

"Go pluck all the flowers you can find in the Wildfire forest," instead of "Harvest 10 Livansran flowers inside the Wildfire forest dungeon!"

The former would end up in him receiving a truckload of flowers but that was no problem because Nial could simply sort them neatly once he stored everything inside his spatial ring. All he would need was a little bit of patience.

This would make things a lot easier, especially since he could order around hundreds of dungeon beasts with a single use of his ability as long as they were not too intelligent or their mind fortified to block Nial's domination.

"That's how I like it!"
