Chapter 769 [Fate]
-----
"Not an option? Why?" Asked Drake.
"Since you became a reincarnated soul in here that you already began to help at breaking [Fate]" Sighed the fox woman. "[Fate] is not some sort of thing you hit and break, it is a force of nature, every single reincarnated person is unique as they cannot be easily controlled by [Fate] in fact, as they grow stronger they emit waves that distort the essence of [Fate], the stronger reincarnated people grow in this world, the weaker [Fate] grows." She said with a smile. "As you can see, me and a few other Venerables were reincarnated people, we managed to distort Fate a lot with each one of us… But it was clearly not enough."
"I see… It is not something I can easily ignore I guess, it kind of sucks that my entire family is made of reincarnated people then…" Said Drake. "Me, my wife, and my daughter, we are all reincarnated souls. This means that we are already destroying Fate without realizing?"
"Yes! In fact your family is very special because of that! Many Venerables have their eyes on you, Drake. Some want your powers and others want to ally you… Luckily, I am not so greedy, kon~ I want you to be my ally, after all you befriended my little Dream Clone and completed the first part of my Inheritance! Now that you've gotten this powerful godly soul and all, I am sure you can breeze through the Inheritance and get to the core of it."
"The core of it…? What will I find there?" Asked Drake. "I am confused about this whole thing to be honest."
"You already got a Dream-Attribute Mana Core, right? Well, there are a few other prizes, such as special artifacts I created that will grant you special dream abilities. The last Prize is… Dream Attribute Divine Enlightenment and Dream Divinity."
"D-Dream Divinity and Enlightenment…? So I'll become a Dream God if I get it?" Asked Drake in surprise.
"Yes, that's the whole point of inheritances, dummy." Laughed the mischievous Fox woman. "We give the one that completes our powers so they can keep on our legacy and attempt to fulfill our dreams as well…"
"But don't you plan to resurrect?" Asked Drake.
"That's a whole different matter… Don't worry about it. The inheritance and my resurrection are separate…" She said. "A bit, if you complete the Inheritance, it will be easier for me to resurrect."
"Hm, are you not planning to resurrect on my body and hijack it, or something, right?" Asked Drake while being rather suspicious about this entire thing.
"Ohoho! So sharp!" She giggled. "But don't worry, maybe I would do it if I were more chaotic evil such as the Venerable of Blood, his intentions are to take over his descendant body and soul, but that's not my intention. What I currently plan to do is different… I will reconstruct a new body out of Dreams, a stronger body than my previous life. A Pure Realm Reality Seeker Physique is my plan! I've practiced by creating Dream Clones before, and the set-up is done, I just need [Fate] to be weakened enough and for you to complete my Inheritance!"
"I see… This is a bit… Am I being forced into this situation, aren't I? I guess I really don't have many choices in what to do. I either help you and make a Venerable my ally or… I stay alone against the other dangerous Venerables… It is better to stay with you, but that would mean I have to trust you…" Sighed Drake.
"Come on, I've saved your life, right? And I've given you my Inheritance for you complete as well!" She said. "I am someone you should trust… Also, you're incredibly unique as an existence, your Unique Skills… have given you powers the other Venerables have been seeking for generations. If Oberon learns about your true powers he'll become more aggressive with his search for you. You're not only a True Immortal, but you're a God through Unique Skills. If he could extract them from you, he would finally attain what he had been seeking for so long… And if he manages to do the same with Benladann, your wife, he'll be able to assimilate chaos, something he always have wanted. With that, he'll be able to dominate the world and beyond…"
"…" Drake remained in silence as he contemplated the dangerousness of his powers, and how much others might desire them. But he also had strength, an incredible amount of power. He felt slightly confident that he wouldn't be beaten so easily now. He wasn't going to cower in fear, and was still going to explore the world and enjoy life with his family, he was going to abuse these powers others desired to crush his foes.
"Hm, I see some resolve in your face." Said the Dream Venerable. "There are other Venerables that might or might not become your allies. Ask Belle about their Inheritances or the Dungeons they left behind, if you can find them and explore them, you can strengthen yourself even more with the powers they left behind, and perhaps even find more of them as your allies, but remember that not all of them will do so even if you complete their inheritances…"
"I understand…" Said Drake. "And fine, let's become allies."
"Good! I am glad you finally accepted, I was thinking that you're such a stubborn man, it was really a pain to try to convince you, seriously!" She said. "But now that things are done, shall we become closer? Fufu… Don't worry, this is a dream so its not like you would be cheating on your wife." Suddenly, the Dream Fox Venerable seductively walked towards Drake, hugging him, and embracing his chest with her own, her large breasts began to press over his chest, and her beautiful face, with those enchanting golden eyes and her red lips made for a deadly combination that no man could ever resist…
Would Drake be able to resist the temptation?
