Chapter 1045: 1045
According to Luke, the rebellion had already started, which meant that the hybrids were heading toward the city . Seven creatures in the sixth rank and thousands of weaker ones were resurfacing from the sea's depths and marching toward the continent at that exact moment .
Noah had lost a few weeks to return to the hunters' guild, but the invaders needed months to break through the defensive measures . The only variable was how close they were to the landmass in the first place .
Even with his strong body, Noah needed a bit more than two months to reach the dimensional tunnel . He would take less if he had his movement technique, but he had yet to spend an extended period focusing on improving his spells and martial arts .
Everything had happened too quickly after he came out of the chrysalis, and problems had piled up, leaving him no time to focus on adapting his battle prowess to his new power . However, Noah had a long trip in front of him, and he could use that period to improve .
The dark star in his chest began to spin faster as if understanding his intentions . His thoughts turned into instincts that his mind processed far faster than usual . Then, the light of the Divine Deduction technique shone on the sea inside his sphere, quickening his thinking speed even more .
Noah couldn't put into words what he felt when both his body and his divine technique worked together to improve his mind's capabilities . The world in his eyes changed color, and he began to see arrays of laws rather than matter .
However, Noah didn't want to enhance his awareness as a whole . The entirety of his mind began to focus on the modified version of the Merging spell and reviewed its structure to look for possible improvements .
The thinking speed that his body could reach on its own was incredible, but nothing could match the effects of the Divine Deduction technique when mental energy in the sixth rank fueled its shining lines .
Noah understood aspects of the Merging spell's diagram that he had never even thought of looking for before . His mind generated the feelings that had led to those lines, recreating the original reasoning behind the ability .
After understanding its origin, Noah could create different lines through his will . Instead of transforming a spell with rank 5 potential into a sixth rank technique, Noah focused on its core and expanded it according to his needs .
It wasn't a modification nor an improvement . Noah took someone else's idea and made it grow on a path that suited his needs, avoiding the original limits that the creator had been unable to cross .
Noah's mind tested different dispositions while improving the new diagram . A spell brewed directly above the mental sea, and he couldn't put into words the countless thoughts that surged inside him .
Noah munched pieces of the Hydras' bodies as his flight continued . He didn't feel hungry, but he enjoyed sensing his body improving . Moreover, his dark sphere redirected part of the nutrients to quicken the production of mental energy .
Once Noah set his mind into something, his body would do anything to improve the functions related to his project . It was as if his dark star was a sentient automaton made of his instincts and desires .
A month passed, and the lump of darkness eventually became a vast lake that had strange fabric . Its shape became blurry even inside Noah's mental sphere, but an intense sharpness filled the ethereal area .
