Back to Damien and Flint.
The duo had just finished up their individual training, and were ready to move out at the evening of the eighth day.
It was also the time where Flint would have his Rematch with the Realm Guardian, and prove himself. His strength had increased greatly now that he was a god.

He viewed his Template again, and was impressed at how great it was. And how much changes had occurred throughout the past day.
First, he was now a god, and could use Divine power. But miraculously, his Divine power was almost infinite. It was what had shocked Damien a few hours back.
According to him, he was disappointed for once, and thought Flint would have Infinite Divine power. The Flint he knew back then was like that, with infinite reserves.
But the current Flint was not aware of that, and was temporarily despondent because of those words. Temporarily, though.
Next would be the Divinity tab, as well as the Law tab. These were exclusive to gods, especially the Divinity tab. It meant the overall authority he would weild as a god.
Unfortunately, he had none... for now.
Then his Sub-Class. It finally leveled up, which was also the reason he became a god. His overall level surpassed 85.
And speaking about levels, he had asked about them to Damien a moment ago. And the response he received was as such, "Becoming a god would require billions of Life Essence at minimum. Which is unfortunate, as most people could not collect that much Life Essence in their entire life."
"But if one is lucky to have a Sub-Class, they could use it to Level up, and become a god. The main requirement is to be above level 85... Regardless if whether it's the addition of two numbers, or more." He paused for Flint to absorb the knowledge, and then continued.
"But the required need for Worldly Essence still remains. Yet that could also be easily delt with, as long as one could nourish themselves with Divine Crystals... which we will find some, if we are lucky."
"Or by absorbing the core of a god, which is possible for us, and our optimum path right now. The other problem about this path is that, to Level up a Sub-Class, it would require 1000% more Life Essence than usual."
"And that includes the effects of having a higher grade Class. Which is why it took you, 800 units of Life Essence just to Level up to Level 1, while it's normally just 10 units for ordinary Classes." He concluded at that.
"Ah... I see now. That makes more sense. So if I don't have enough Life Essence, I can just level up through the Sub-Class, which has lower requirements at low levels." Flint nodded heavily, but Damien doubted if he understood the whole matter.
Flint also realized that his lie was not bought, and hurriedly changed the topic. "Haha, by the way, just as you said, my stats did increase due to keeping my [Power Body] mastered Unique Ability active."
"..."
Damien did not responded but nodded in response. As Flint said, for mortals, raising strength was easy but hard. Easy because it was possible, yet hard because it was arduous.
But once a loophole is found, it becomes easy. Activating a Unique or mastered Unique Ability active for 24 hours, could effectively increase their stats by 0,1%.
And including the Realm Stage effects, it would increase by 49 times, becoming 4,9% per day. Hence why Flint's stats increased by almost fifty times in just a week of doing so.
But as he was a god now, the effects would be halved. And the stronger he became, the less effective it would be on him. Plus, potential was a limit factor to how much one could mess up with this loophole.
'Unfortunately, only those with Mana surpassing two trillion units at minimum, could do such nigh-impossible training.' Flint thought in disappointment.
But unfortunately, he was unaware that even being able to last an hour, would still benefit a person. Take Damien for example, his strength increased by 0,5 every time he did so for two and a half hours.
And since he could now easily replenish his Mana in just hours, he could repeat this five more times, hence it was an increase of 2,5% every day for him.
And his Mana was constantly increasing. It was only about due time that his strength increased beyond his greatest heights.
And finally, he had bought Cryz Stones from Damien. Each at either 10 Mana Stones, or 5 Mana Crystals. He bought them for his people, especially those with lower ranked Classes.
"Alright, time to move out!!" He said in enthusiasm, pushing himself off the ground with his flames. 'I feel closer to the fire now. Like... I am actually fire, and it's also me.'
Flint thought to himself. He felt so much power coursing through his veins at all times. Especially so, when his Unique Abilities, [Supernatural Strength], [Power Body] and [Hell Flame Physiology] were constantly active.
His entire being was converted into flames. Like the very personification of Fire. And his base stats were increased greatly as well.
'I feel like I can carry the world on my palm...' He thought as Damien unfurled his Wings of Endless Ash. He also wore the Gray Mask, his visage being cloaked by gray ashes and gray mist.
Both resembling devils from different departments of hell. One blazing with battle intent, and the other dripping with extreme apathy. "Let's depart." And with that, they took off.
They both flew at speeds terrifying times beyond what they usually flew at. Flint being able to now last longer when flying at light speed, and even slightly surpassing Damien with his boost.
Thus it did not take then even a minute to return back to the cave they had entered. "Back here, huh? Feels like it's been ages, but it's only been a week or so."
Flint commented, and Damien nodded. They then sunk in together, and in seconds, reached the secret passage that led directly into the Newborn Realm.
Damien then gave a brief warning, "There is a high chance Virgil is still in there. So when the battle starts, always be on your toes." Flint heavily nodded. "Yeah. I know."
Damien then wore the Devil's Gown, and equipped "Devil's Shadow", one of its Abilities. With his current Mana, he would last even longer.
The cost was so negligible that, he could stay invisible even to the eyes of minor deities for over a day. And he, just need a few hours. "Now go." His voice drifted within the air.
"..."
And since also Flint could not see through him, he felt weirded out. Like talking to a ghost. But he responded nonetheless. "Roger" and went into the secret tunnel.
Damien then watched as Flint flew into the secret tunnel, and he, himself, walked idly within. He was thinking about something.
A topic that kept him busy the past week. Class Creation. Now that that had experience at creating one, he was wondering if it was possible to create another one.
Of course, the mere idea itself was preposterous. But Damien had come up with an idea the past week.
Since the Cryz Stones could bring out fusion of things, wouldn't that work for Classes as well? Like, fusing two Lesser Divine Classes, to obtain a Greater Divine Class?
For one, he has the "Knight Inheritance", and he knew other places with unique "Inheritances" as well. If he could bond them with a Realm each, elevating them to Divine, and fusing them, would he...
"..."
Unfortunately, even if he was curious, he currently had no resources. And it would take time to collect them. Right now, he just wanted to be done, and go home.
'Or instead of wasting time, I could just find hidden Supreme Divine Classes, and fuse them to obtain a Hidden Class of my own. As for finding two Hidden Classes... clearly absurd.' He thought to himself.
The battle was also about to begin.
