I Can Upgrade My Talent In Everything-Chapter 458 - 458 The Path to Godhood

458 The Path to Godhood

“Just wait for a few hours and my friend would bring Aoi here. For the time being, let’s talk about your life as Fein’s neighbor.” Lucius smirked.

“Father!” Sofia puffed her cheeks. She didn’t like being teased when Fein was around her.

Fein, on the other hand, just pretended to be deaf and watched the father-and-daughter interaction. He doesn’t want to disturb their time since he would take Sofia on an adventure and it would be a long time before the two would see each other again. ‘It seems I have to put that app on agenda. With video calls, it would improve the experience of communication on cellphones.’

The only problem was the internet connection. The internet source in his base could only cover the entire South, not the entire continent. He still had to improve the antenna so that it would reach every part of the continent. To do that, he needs to create a satellite! ‘Damn, I really need to make my organization functional as soon as possible.’

Satellites would help immensely as they could project waves or frequency to cover the entire world.

If his organization, the ‘Eye of the Dark Nights’, started to work and expand, acquiring resources would become easier.

Just like that, half an hour passed with Lucius and Sofia talking about just anything, including Sofia’s childhood. Fein would just listen and would add a few words from time to time to contribute to their conversation.

“By the way, Zohan told me that you know what happened during the successive Great Wars? Can you tell me the details about it? I have been curious for a while now.” With an expression of inquiry on his face, Fein decided to ask while he had the opportunity.

Zohan told him that Lucius knew something about the First Great War, Second Great War, and Third Great War. After all, Lucius had lived for nearly a thousand years.

.....

‘Oh, damn!’ Fein’s eyes widened as he realized something. ‘I should have just asked Zero. That damned guy is literally two thousand years old.’

“Ohhh... Zohan told you about the Great Wars?” The smile on Lucius’ face visibly faded as he heard the word Great War and his expression turned serious.

‘What? The Great War? What is that?’ Sofia became curious as well. She knew her father very well.

When Lucius was serious, then the matter isn’t something to take lightly. A thing that could make Lucius serious sometimes involved secrets.

“Yeah, but he didn’t know the details about the first and second great wars, so he suggested that I should ask you instead.” Fein spread his arms helplessly.

“That’s it...” Lucius nodded with understanding. “Let me tell you then.”

Lucius put his arms on his back and turn around. His eyes deepened as he tried to remember the details of the war that were still fresh in his mind.

“First of all, the First Great War isn’t really a war. But a genocide! Under one being’s will, the two races disappeared. You should know about them from the history books you read in our library last time. Yes, they are the titans and the devils. The reason for their demise was because of the Lord of the Gods.” Lucius spoke with a dark timbre in his voice.

‘So the First Great War isn’t actually about humans? But who’s this Lord of the Gods? Sounds big deal and powerful,’ Fein contemplated. f𝔯ℯe𝓌ℯ𝐛𝒏𝐨ѵel.c𝚘𝐦

At first, Fein thought that the First Great War was about the war between different countries. He didn’t expect that it was related to the three first races on the continent that he had read in the history book.

As he remembered. Gods won the battle and beat the devils and the titans. But the Gods had to retreat as the battle also weakened them greatly, so they went into hiding and they didn’t make an appearance ever since.

“As you know, gods are just a myth now, as they had long disappeared. No one knew where they hid. But the currently accepted theory is that they went outside the continent. As you know, the outside continent also remains a mystery for centuries.” Lucius smiled.

“How about the Lord of Gods? It’s the first time I’ve heard about him?” Fein’s eyebrow was raised.

“As his name pertained, he is the leader, the chief, and the strongest among the gods. His decree is like a divine gospel, even to the powerful gods. Right, father?” Sofia turned her head to her father.

“Actually, you’re only half right.” Lucius chuckled. “Yeah, he’s the leader, but he is not the most powerful. Well, he is the most powerful, not until his son was born. So, you are technically half-right. The leader of the gods has various names, but he is most well known by the name Fersukiel. He holds absolute power over the domain of death and lightning... As for his son, Luci... It is said that Luci could understand the four laws of elements to a very advanced level. Fein here might know what I’m talking about.”

“Law of Elements?” Sofia asked with doubt.

Suddenly, Fein realized something. “Do you mean the law of elements? The principle behind things? I certainly understood them. What about them?”

“So you had really sensed the laws? Something I have attempted for a long time now, but I can still sense them. What’s more, understand them?” Lucius had an expression of regret.

“What’s with these laws of elements?” Sofia asked impatiently.

Fein stared at Lucius, also waiting for his explanation. He wants to see what Lucius, who had lived for a long time, knew about the laws.

“Well, understanding the laws is the key to attaining godhood. Once a man achieves a high enough understanding, he can obtain godhood. You know, a god can’t be considered a god without godhood. Of course, these are all secret information that explorers had unveiled from the ruins and other historical places suspected related to the gods.”

Lucius took a deep breath for a while, then continued.

“Back to the topic. Once one reached a high level of comprehension of law, he will be baptized by the laws and turn into a god. The leader of the Gods had two godheads, which were the lighting and death, while his son has four.”
