The Extra's Odyssey-Chapter 217 Eternal
Reabsorbing my soul core a string of notifications appeared.
Ding!
[User can now use [Iridescence] ]
[Rating: 9.8/10 --> Rating: 10/10]
Ding!
[Rating has reached the upper limit! Evolution conditions are now available!] 𝒇𝗿𝙚ℯ𝑤ℯ𝑏𝒏𝑜ѵe𝙡.c𝐨m
"I see... so I had to regain my soul core for the evolution condition to be revealed."
Nodding my head, I removed the notifications.
"I'll check the evolution conditions later. First I need to..."
'Kill the Abomination.'
Judging from the past actions of the monster, it must have left something to regenerate in case it lost to me and...
'There is no system notification about its death.'
Before moving I rechecked the amount of time I had left in my [Self Enchantment].

======
[Time Remaining a�" 02:46 minutes]
Durability stat increases came from [Unbreakable] enchantment of [Fragment of Eternity] while the increase in Ether stat came from the fact that the ore was inside my ether core.
As for the absurd stat increase, it was because an Overlord is not restricted by the System.
'2 minutes. It should be enough.'
Phzzzzt- (x51)
Cc...raack- (x25)
"Third Technique: Folding"
The air vibrated from the huge amount of ether that was being moved. The weapons began being absorbed into the God-Killing Spear and refining it.
'I need to destroy Floor 14.'
The only way to completely kill the Abomination was to eradicate it.
Unfortunately, as an Iota-rank I didn't have enough firepower to destroy a pocket dimension.
'Well, calling myself Iota-rank is too late.'
Below everything in several kilometers area was demolished to bits. It was almost like an apocalypse had descended. The God-Killing Spears were the cause of over 90% of the destruction from my side.
And this was how I was planning to destroy this Floor.
------
God-Killing Spear
- Completion Rate: 2%
- For every 1 meter covered +1% damage
- Contains Essence of Destruction
------
When the completion rate reached 2%, I was able to comprehend a bit about the strange ability of the God-Killing Spear.
Shiiiing-
Suddenly, 9 black beams shot out from different corners of Floor 14.
"You are coming out already?"
[Enchantment: Light]
Fwosh-
A subtle glow covered the sword I was standing upon and it shot towards the sky at breakneck speed.
Kreeeeech-
A grey sea began emerging from the ground while the black beams continued to shoot.
I kept dodging while changing weapons.
[Time Remaining a�" 01:15 minute]
I had assimilated almost 30 constellations into the Spear, leaving less than half remaining.
KREEEEEEECCHHH-
As if the Abomination understood my intent, the grey sea turned into a typhoon.
The hurricane grew in size and nearly reached the sky. Grey droplets shot out from the spiral and spread in all directions.
[Golden Turtle]
Bang-!
Just as I summoned the golden shield, the surrounding droplets grew spikes all over themselves. In a few seconds, the sky was filled with flails with only the spikes balls.
The Abomination roared again, the world shook as the mighty hurricane bellowed. The black beams coming out of the hurricane tried to skewer me without rest.
[Time Remaining a�" 00:30 seconds]
"It's done!"
Flying several hundred kilometers above the ground, the God-Killing Spear was now 80 meters long. The colossal Spear was emitting the essence of destruction. Waves of energy were rushing out from it, slamming into the smaller weapons and even me, almost throwing me off my feet by its force.
The hurricane began changing shape, but before it could, I threw the Spear.
FWOOOOOSSH-
"[Multiply] !"
It was only thanks to [Eternal Mode] that I had enough ether to use many large-scale attacks consecutively.
The five giant Spears covered in purple energy tore through the mist and struck the ground around the grey hurricane.
BOOOOOOOMMMMMMMM!!!!!
A massive mushroom cloud formed. The ground shook, and a shockwave slammed into the surroundings, sending trees flying in all directions.
Fissures ran through the sky as the fabric of space began to be 'destroyed'. The essence of destruction had been used on such a scale that it was able to tear holes in the pocket dimension. While the power of eternity corroded the hurricane.
KREEEEEeeeecccchhh-
A second after the explosion, the sound of the rain hitting the earth was replaced with a dull roar.
What emerged from the hole created by the blast was a gigantic beam of black light.
I nimbly dodged the black beam by shooting the weapon in another direction. I could tell, this was the last attack of the dying monstrosity. Turning around, I saw the boundary of Floor 14 being eaten by the final attack of the Abomination.
"So it's over."
I felt a sense of satisfaction at the fact that I had finally killed an Abomination.
At the same time, the essence of destruction seeped deep into the ground.
The world began crumbling down, and darkness obscured my vision.
Ding!

-(Past || Administrator and Raikou meeting; Location: ???)-
"Dammit...What have we done....?"
Raikou spoke as we witnessed Nathan's transformation on the TV inside the room.
In front of him was a girl who appeared to be no older than 20.
"He became an... Overlord"
Both of them shuddered as the word 'Overlord' came out.
Administrator's brows creased and she muttered to herself.
"If I knew this was possible, then I would've killed the Abomination myself!"
"What are the chances?" Raikou interrupted. "What are the chances that he'll come out of this alive?"
"I... I don't know." Administrator massaged her brows. "A newly born Overlord shouldn't be a very high-level threat. They only have System restrictions removed but...."
She looked at Nathan, who was flying on God-Killing Spear before continuing.
"He has 'that' art."
"[Armory of Eridu], the first art to be created and the reason why 'One person one art' Law was implemented." Raikou's voice was grim. "The one art that showed that hard work could defeat talent."
"Dammit! If I knew his 'Seed of Chaos' would bloom here, I wouldn't have messed with his trial. At least that way he would have no way to defeat the Abomination."
Administrator had bent rules as much as she was allowed to eliminate the threat known as Devil's successor.
Ultimately, she sighed.
"We can only hope that the Abomination kills him now."
Both of them watched the events unfold when Nathan stepped on Floor 14.
After reaching the Floor, he didn't engage and first carried Susan to a safe place. Making sure she was far away from the battlefield, Nathan created a layer of [Chaos] energy to stay undetected and observed the battle between Leon and Abomination.
Throughout the battle, Leon was on the back foot because the Abomination knew about his techniques and he could harm it.
"Leonidas, his art is on the verge of completion." Administrator commented.
"Indeed, at this rate, as long as Lord gains enlightenment, he should be able to complete his art and receive a grade worthy of it."
The art Leon was practicing in this life was created by a human. At first, Raikou was planning on teaching Leon techniques from his past life, but when he found that his new art could interfere with the fabric of reality, he was left baffled and, he decided to let continue Leon practice the [Genesis Style].
When it seemed Leon was about to be defeated, the [Miracle] performed by Lark finally showed effect and a summoning circle appeared beneath Leon.
"Who is summoning, Lord?"
"...."
Administrator didn't answer. It would breach the Tower rules.
A subtle change occurred in Administrator's gaze when Leon snatched Nathan's soul core. 'Why is he such a busybody? He is creating problems for himself.'
Administrator noticed the Abomination leaving a small piece of itself in Nathan's soul core. The monster knew that as the Child of Destiny, Leon might escape at the last second and thus left a way to kill him.
However, she didn't tell this to Raikou.
Finally, they witness Nathan's battle with the Abomination.
"What....? First King was already too powerful, but he is even stronger than him at Iota-rank."
Even though Nathan was an enemy, Raikou couldn't help but praise him after watching his prowess.
"What are his stats?"
"I don't know." Administrator shook her head. "I can't check his status anymore."
They watched in anticipation when Nathan killed the Abomination once. Knowing that the Abomination wasn't yet defeated, they hoped that Nathan would make a careless mistake.
But it seemed Nathan also noticed how no notification about the monster's death came.
"It doesn't matter either way. Why is he fighting this hard? Even with him gaining the ability to nullify protection of chaos, the Abomination won't die until he kills every part of it."
Raikou didn't understand. For what reason was Nathan trying so hard? Was it enough for him to bet his life even though he just came back from maws of death?"
However, both of them stopped thinking about such thoughts and color drained their faces.
"H-he can't be... He is trying to destroy Floor 14!!"
Administrator almost punched the TV in anger however, Raikou held her back.
Letting aside the problem of how an Iota-rank was hoping to destroy a pocket dimension, it would cause her a lot of trouble if she had to build an entire floor from scratch.
"Please...please fail"
She helplessly watched as her hopes were smashed to smithereens along with Floor 14.
"Dammit... I shouldn't have helped with your business!"
Defeated, she could only divert her anger towards Raikou.
