Villain With The Strongest System

Almost as soon as he reached the origin realm, he felt disoriented and as if his gut were wrenching, however, this time he did not puke his guts out, as he was purposefully traveling on an empty stomach.

'Too strong…F***, the mana density of this realm is too strong' Rocky cursed as he struggled back to his feet.

"Back so soon?" Asked the familiar guide of the Origin Realm, as Epita, the three eyed demoness welcomed Rocky with a big smile on her face.

'Oh gosh, not her again' Rocky thought, as he did not like the deceitful demoness one bit, however, concealing his emotions he nodded towards her in acknowledgement.

"I'm here for the second tier promotion test-" Rocky said in a controlled tone, as he tried to put on the tough act.

Although he was feeling dizzy from the sudden change in environment, he tried to put on a brave face in front of Epita as he felt instinctively apprehensive in showing a weak side to that demon.

Epita sized Rocky up, glancing at the imperceivable projection of the massive purple knight warrior behind him, as she tried to ensure that Rocky still had the backing of Gemini before treating him with any ounce of respect.

Unfortunately for her, Rocky seemed to be still heavily favored by Gemini, evident by the size of his guardian figure behind him, as Epita understood that if she tried to mess with Rocky even slightly, she would be cut down to shreds by the wrath of Gemini.

While Rocky could not perceive the divine essence and the chaos energy yet, which made him oblivious to the protection he had. Epita was very much aware of it and hence treated Rocky with extreme care and respect.

"Well, what's the hurry? You're back here after a few months. Chat with me for a while first, tell me about the outside world" Epita said, trying to strike a conversation with Rocky as she felt genuinely bored in this realm all alone and wanted to know about the events of the outside world.

Understanding her nature better now and knowing full well that she would become grumpy if he refused her request, Rocky decided to indulge her for a bit as he saw no harm in talking to her for a while.

"Alright, I might not be fully up-to-date on the latest events in the tower, so what I can share might not seem as engaging to someone of your stature, since it's all news of what happens in the lower floors.

However, I'll tell you what I do know…" Rocky said, as he indulged Epita and her curiosity for a while and told her about the attack principal Liam launched on floor 21 and how the Olympian forces are in disorder over it.

While floors below 60 held little worth for Epita, and the events Rocky shared being genuinely too low level to capture her interest,she enjoyed listening to the drama nonetheless as by the end of his story, her mood had brightened significantly.

"Hahaha, so the foolish Champion Of Poseidon's elder brother is foolish too… hahaha" Epita said, chuckling out loud as she found the whole incident extremely entertaining.

Having been a floor master herself long ago, she knew the challenges that came alongside being a floor master and found Perseus's actions as being laughable.

It was clear to her that the boy was too green to properly manage a floor as he did not have the far-sightedness to realize the consequences of his actions, a quality that was a must for anyone to become a good floor master.

"Well, you have entertained me well today, Champion of Gemini. Therefore, I shall reward you accordingly." Epita said, as she pointed towards their immediate surroundings, trying to get Rocky to notice what was different about his starting point today compared to his last visit to the Origin Realm.

"Look around... Do you see how you're in the dense forest this time and not in the clearing where you started last time?" she asked as Rocky glanced around, noticing the pool where he had taken a dive to clear his first tier promotion test being not too far behind him as he nodded in understanding.

"Yes, whenever you return to the Origin Realm, you start from where you left off last with the end goal being for you to make your way to the Origin Palace" Epita said, pointing somewhere deep into the forest as Rocky recalled the image of the massive palace that he saw the first time he entered the origin realm and nodded his head.

That palace looked like it was a few mountain ranges away, but nothing too crazy either as Rocky felt like he could reach the palace on foot in about 20 days maximum if he hiked at a moderate pace.

"Everytime that you return to this Origin Realm, you will have to slowly make your way towards the palace and your next test location until you finally reach the palace gates when you're ready to attempt your floor 90 promotion test" Epita explained as she shared invaluable knowledge about the workings of the Origin Realm with Rocky.

"While your first promotion test was easy and only needed you to take the test, from your second promotion test onwards, the promotion exam will be divided into two parts.

Firstly, you will need to make your way to the next promotion test site which will be riddled with countless dangers.

And then you will need to attempt the promotion test itself, which can also end your life if you can't take it" Epita said, as she grinned evilly at the ruthless nature of the origin realm.
