I Am Genie-Chapter 81: The Strongest Level One
Both Leo and Iris only needed to hear a little to understand the ’system’ was a type of support ability to help Michael get familiar quickly no matter which world he went to.
Of course they were sure it also had many limits. If not, Michael wouldn’t be this weak right now.
"Is that ’sleeping’ status a type of seal?"
Leo wondered. He was pretty curious about the ability that made Dragon God ’disappear’ from the world for tens of thousands of years. If later he really ran into that ability, he didn’t know how to deal with it properly.
"You don’t need to worry about that ability that much. It’s a bit annoying but it’s not invincible. Back then I got sealed just because I had used up too much energy fighting before that."
Even though she was sealed for tens of thousands of years, Iris was still quite confident when mentioning that ability. In a normal situation, there was no way that ability could seal her.
Of course, that was only in a fight where neither side was going all out. If that god existed and was willing to go all out to trade lives with her, that was a different story.
"But why do you call it sleeping?"
Michael was also very confused. A seal and sleep—how could they be seen as the same thing?
"That ability is like putting me into a sleep. Plus, it’s the type that forces you to sleep, even if your consciousness is awake, you still can’t open your eyes or move. If it wasn’t because I have no limit on lifespan, I definitely would have been forced to ’sleep’ until I died."
Iris didn’t intend to keep these things as personal secrets, so she directly said it all.
Michael and Leo, hearing this, felt this ability was a bit... gentle? Even if you had to die, dying while asleep wasn’t really a bad experience. At least compared to being beaten to death, it was extremely humane.
"At first I also thought it was strange. Sun God and Sea God weren’t ’gentle’ to this level. Letting an enemy sleep until their lifespan or energy runs out before dying, no matter how you look at it, is very merciful. The process doesn’t hurt, I also felt pretty comfortable."
Speaking of it, she actually wanted to ’sleep’ like that again. There weren’t any dragons left. She didn’t have anything to do anyway, so going to sleep wasn’t so bad.
"If you want to sleep, then why did you come out here? Also, looking at your state, you must have voluntarily given up your god-level power, right?"
Michael felt extremely confused. If he had strength like hers, he wouldn’t throw it away to start over from scratch. Unless there was some extremely special reason.
"It was Heaven who ’told’ me that all the gods would meet again soon. Anyway, it’s a rare event, so I shouldn’t be missing, right? So I threw away that old body and created this current body to live in human form. In terms of age, my human body compared to you guys has almost no difference."
Iris explained this reason, making Michael and Leo freeze. Heaven can talk directly? The way she said it sounded kind of weird.
"Does Heaven talk directly to gods?" Leo wondered.
"Not really. An important premonition suddenly appearing in a god’s heart is ninety-nine percent because of Heaven." Iris shook her head.
The existence of Heaven was hard for non-gods to understand. Even for gods, it wasn’t certain they had talked directly with Heaven the way two humans talked to each other.
"Wait, your age isn’t different from us, so you’re also just level one or around there?"
Michael widened his eyes in shock. Being the same level but able to fight one against two and win. This was way too excessive. They were both gods, why was this world so unfair to him?
"Ha ha ha, that’s right, I’m at level one. Logically my level would be higher but I spent quite a lot of time learning how to use this new body proficiently."
Iris smirked, from deep within her eyes radiated the ultimate arrogance. When she created this body, she tried to make it the best she could, so of course it was strong.
"Then where does your strength come from? There’s no way at the same rank the difference is this huge."
Michael felt this world shouldn’t be this unbalanced. His strength compared to Leo’s difference was mainly due to technique, not pure power. If he mastered how to use energy, he wasn’t much worse than Leo.
Iris used her hand to hit Michael hard on the head. Her gaze was like she was looking at a hopeless idiot, making him angry but unable to say anything.
"It’s true that at high levels, such a big gap won’t appear, but right now it’s level one. My dragon form has muscles that can be called maximum muscles. My human body is also the strongest type this world allows.
Moreover, I have top-tier energy technique and also hold a part of the power of the Seven-Hued Celestial Dragon Spear. With that many advantages, dealing with a brat like you is incredibly easy, isn’t it?"
Michael couldn’t argue. If you asked who in the history of the entire continent was the strongest person at level one, you could completely confirm it was the person right in front of him.
Energy techniques are extremely hard to train. It was precisely because Leo had that technique that Michael had no way to win.
Furthermore, controlling energy well enough could counter a domain. This exact reason made Leo’s Chaotic World domain useless against Iris.
"So you should still learn from her. One day you’ll get stronger." Leo stood to the side encouraging.
"Yeah... Huh???"
Michael just nodded when his whole body froze. He did want to get stronger but he didn’t want to be abused.
Although when Leo trained him he also made him ’almost die’ quite a few times, at least Leo actually wanted to train him seriously.
As for Iris... No need to know if she trained seriously or not, but she would definitely think of enough tricks to mess with Michael.
"Ha ha ha ha... Leo is right. You really have to learn from me properly. So don’t be a useless piece that makes gods like us lose face because of you."
Iris saw Michael’s face darken and burst out laughing. She quite liked looking at his expressions. Most especially watching him get angry but not daring to do anything to her.
