The Rise Of Calamity

Walking out of the woman's office, I walked toward her assistant who was sitting leisurely at a desk with her feet up and a pen in her mouth that she continually chewed on. Eventually, when I got to her desk, I gave her a cold glance that sent a slight shiver down her spine, even though she was technically a while rank above me in power, and a whole mana-heart stage above me when it came to mana.

'I really need to break through to the gaseous stage. At this point, my mana is pathetic and abysmal at best. 2 Years ago, I ran out of mana in less than 5 minutes when fighting against that Grand Knight from the Pride Church, and my mana quantity still hasn't improved since... To add salt to my wounds, the only thing that had improved in the last 2 years was my experience with a multitude of weapons and my control over my different elements...'

I was getting a little agitated, as I would always do when I think of this certain topic. No matter what I do, no matter how long and hard I train, I simply would not get any more mana. Using my breathing technique doesn't work to strengthen my mana heart anymore, nor does eating since both had become insufficient methods.

My breathing technique had reached the 36% point of efficiency, and for now, it is just the second fastest way for me to heal my injuries again my mana, the first obviously being food. Food was simply the most efficient way, even though a lot of the energy is used to break down the food, the food gains some of the remnants and distributed it around my body as nutrients, while the rest goes to my mana heart to fill it up or to heal any wounds that I might have. If none of that is available, it is just dispersed.

Breathing on the other hand distributes the energy with the oxygen I breathe, which is then put into individual blood cells and then distributed around the body the same way oxygen is. However, just like normal humans, some of the energy has to leave and in this case, it is about 64% of it which is simple enough, rejected by my body.

While I thought of all of this, I kept looking at the assistant with the same cold gaze, while at the same time, my mind went on to wonder and think about the plan I had created to make sure that no one can like my identity as Lilith to my identity as Pandora.

"M-Miss Lilith? Do you want something?" The assistant stuttered. Looking at the assistant for a second, I realized what I had been doing and gave a warm smile that reached my eyes, which was the only thing she could see behind my black mask.

The woman in front of me was not bad looking, however, after landing my eyes on the beauty that was my Guildmaster, my eyes did not waver at the sight of her D cup breasts and her luscious blue hair that was held within an elegant ponytail. Her busts were outlined through the suit which made many of the men look at her with lust eminent in their eyes, but I did not take a second glance and said;

"Oh yeah. Red-Head told me to come here and get my new license, communication crystal, and the keys to my new home." I stretched out my open palm while waving my four fingers up and down as if saying 'Give me already'.

The assistant's eyebrow twitched in anger while her whole aura changed after I called her Guildmaster 'Red-Head', yet after looking into my eyes that was mixed with both the affinity of pride and the power of divinity, her anger subdued while sighing helplessly. She didn't like someone calling her Guildmaster by such a stupid nickname, but she felt like she could do nothing in front of me even though she felt like she was much stronger than me.

"I don't have all day" I waved my 4 fingers again in annoyance, making her eye twitch, but this time, she actually moved and gave me three different items

I did not wait another second I disappeared from my space, making the woman sigh in relief before praying to never see me ever again.

***

In the Pheonix's guild booth, a single woman looked down at the paperwork on her desk with a sigh. She had been working extremely hard for the last 2 weeks, and especially today. She had even thought about taking a break.

There had been these guilds opening every fortnight since last summer, and now they were going to stop in a few months that made her even happier. Finally, maybe she would get some sleep or even some relaxation time for herself! Maybe she can even get a boyfriend, since working herself to death was the only thing she could do after her boyfriend had broken up with her, fucked all her fried, and ran away with her best friend.

However, she was quickly thrown out of her daydream when she felt a presence in the room that stood right in front of her. The person has short golden hair that went down to their shoulders, while a terrifying black and gold mask covered her face, showing only her piercing golden eyes from the other side of the mask.

The person has a fur jacket that barely covered her plump ass, while her C-cup breasts were also barely covered by the bandages around them. Her naval and stomach were elegantly shown to the world, not covering up the evidence of extremely slim yet toned abs. They were almost unnoticeable.

"Lilith? You are here!" She showed a small smile, however, I could see right through it.

'A grieving beauty and a heartbroken one. Lady luck is clearly on my side today' A grin formed behind the mask, yet it did not show in my eyes.

"Oh yes. I got my communication crystal" I quickly passed the large palm-sized translucent crystal over to Yuri, who quickly grabbed it while looking at me with a tilted head.

"Did you not synchronize it?" She asked

"Synchro- what?"

*sigh*

"You are supposed to put some of your battle intent and mana inside it. It will then link with your mind and mana, allowing you to use it without the need of it being in your hand, but rather, just close to you." She informed me in a lecturing tone.

"Makes sense" I nodded

"Those who do not have battle aura usually cannot use this, so unless you fought a few dozen battles, I would recommend waiting a b-" before she could say any more, I snatched the crystal back and pushed my battle intent and pure mana inside it.

Yet instead of the expected hue of 5 different colors, a single color came out and polluted the translucent rune-engraved crystal, and that was gold.

'Oh fuck... My divine mana...' I looked at it with a bit of worry, but I did not see a reaction on Yuri's face so I stopped worrying.
