Chapter 1550 Anti-Mold Is Overpowered
-----
The sight of seeing all the animals fully healed, having evolved into Holy Light-type Monsters of Rank 3, and suddenly surrounding Benladra, bowing their heads to her was… Incredible. It seemed to still have some sort of ability similar to the Mold.
But unlike the Mold, which can parasitize living beings, absorb corpses and replicate their body parts into chimeric abominations, and so on, the Anti-Mold does it very differently. It can heal wounds and enhance the power and health of a living being. To the point it can even forcefully evolve them.
However, this evolution seems limited to the Anti-Mold's own element of Holy Light, Life, and most likely even Heaven elements. It is fantastic. If we could employ this on Divine Monster, couldn't we have our own army of Holy Beasts capable of fighting off the Demons to an extent, much better than any Divine Monster?
But that all depends on my daughter's Anti-Mold limits. We have to keep making her practice and find out everything this power can achieve.
"Isn't this amazing? She can even evolve and make the monsters she healed and evolved her loyal allies." Benladann gasped.
"And I can't feel any sort of parasitism within them…" Miranda said. "It is truly as if they were given a new form and all, the monsters become loyal out of eternal gratitude."
"It is really like the opposite of Mold." I nodded. "But is that everything there is to it? I feel like we can find more. Let's keep practicing and training, everyone."
Like that, we continued practicing with Benladra. We ended spending the entire day and the next one constantly practicing. Because we were all so strong already, and Gods, we didn't really need to sleep that much unless we were too exhausted from battles. So we kept awake all this time.
And from all the training and practice, I think we've finally figured out most of what the Anti-Mold is capable of. And how it reacts to Divine Power too. Which ends up making all of its former abilities become even stronger. And its component become much tougher too.
Anyways, the abilities of the Anti-Mold we've found out, which we believe are all primary and basic abilities are:
Capable of healing wounds based on Mana and Divine Power input.
It is also capable of fuse with a host permanently and temporarily boost their stats and create a Holy Aura around them, giving them temporary Holy Light Elemental Affinity.
It can also permanently merge with a target whose wounds are too deep, or whom Benladra commands to assimilate with. In such case, it will heal exhaustion, stamina, sickness, purify any impurities, and could even evolve a target, if they're weak enough or compatible enough.
The Anti-Mold can also protect targets from danger. Based on Mana and Divine Power, it can harden to the point of being as hard as divine metal. Benladra has been learning how to use this for offense and defense.
It can purify and destroy Miasma and Chaos, and other impure and "bad" essences. It works even against Demonic Energy too, but it requires extra Mana and Divine Power to work properly.
Much like the Mold, it can act on its own as if it were its own sort of entity. It expands around, absorbing impurities as it advances. However, unlike the Mold, because it is not predatory, it dies off very quickly unless Benladra gives it a constant supply of Mana and Divine Power. So it is much more exhausting to use than Mold.
"But it's really amazing all the things it can do!" Said Benladann. "If she trains it enough, she could become several times stronger and also have much more utility in battle with it."
"It could even be what could truly kill the inhabitants of the Chaotic Realm for real…" Miranda thought. "Isn't it? After all, it can purify chaos and miasma to the extent it makes it disappear. Imagine dropping enough of this in their Realm, they would all die as it expands."
"That's a rather unsettling thing to think about though…" Benladann sighed. "Well, if possible, I would prefer to make them our friends first than to kill them."
"Yeah, I mean. Of course." Miranda nodded. "But just talking won't work all the time and just trying to assimilate them either. Sometimes, we might end up fighting whoever that [Chaos] girl on Pandemonium's memories was. And if she's as powerful as him. The only solution to stop her from destroying everything is killing her…"
"I-I… Well, I guess." Benladann sighed, looking at Benladra practice her Anti-Mold with Kate, who was playing around with her using her Technomancy.
"She's not wrong I suppose." I nodded. "But let's not think about that for now. The important thing is to help her develop such abilities. I think they would be extremely useful against Pandemonium… It is a bit shameless of me, but I might depend on Benladra, and her Anti-Mold and Heaven Magic more than I would ever want to."
"It's not like she would mind." Benladann patted my shoulders with her giant scaled claws. We were in the Chaos Dragon Realm because both of them were still cultivating inside of it. So we were all on our giant dragon forms.
"Well, I guess we have to do this as family." I smiled. "Though, I still need to continue growing stronger myself. I'll be on my way now. Back to the Divine Realm. I need to continue training my Demonic Energy resistance."
"Are you going to continue eating demon meat?" Wondered Miranda.
"Yes, I'll be eating it raw though, it is much faster than cooked. Though, it comes with the terrible agony of having my throat melted as I do, but it is more efficient and quicker." I laughed.
"I-I don't think that's something to just laugh about, dear." Benladann sighed.
"He always tries to make things seem less serious than they are, so we don't worry." Miranda said. "Well, be on your way then! Train harder to protect me and Benladann! And we'll work harder here so we can protect you back."
"Thank you. See ya for dinner then."
As I stepped out of the Draconic Records, a pile of demon corpses greeted me.
"Gluttony, I bet you're really happy now, aren't you?"
