Chapter 325 Clearing the Miasma

"Anyway. Don't worry about those things, for now focus on getting stronger, or perhaps learning ways to get stronger faster," Aisha spoke as she changed the topic. I wanted to continue asking more, but looking at her face, I decided not to pursue anymore.

"Anything more?" Aisha asked as she looked at me, and I pondered before asking," Is there any way to recreate the essence of this planet?"

"Recreating the essence, huh? Well. Bring me to the core of the planet and I will do it for you," she answered before pondering a little as she added,'' try clearing the miasma first. That would be the first step to create an essence.

"Hmmm... all right. Anything else I should be careful of?" I asked, and she pondered a bit before her eyes widened as she turned at me." One more thing. There will be a lot of monsters that will start attacking you as soon as you clear the miasma. Kill all of them as fast as you can. If you are late, they will end up creating more miasma by destroying everything."

She explained it in a bit more detail, telling me the reasons and the methods of ways to kill them and stuff.

I asked a few more questions to her about this and that, and once I was sure that I knew everything, I decided that there was nothing more for me to know anymore.

"If that's all, I will return to train your girlfriends," she spoke as she went back to teach them. I looked at her with a curious mind, my eyes wondering exactly who she was. To help me while asking for nothing in return.

'She isn't even curious about me,' I sighed as I looked at her. An oddball.... She was a good person... a strong, good person.

I thought a bit about it before putting it to the back of my mind, since right now, I needed to clear the quest. I concentrated on that.

And using [Warp] again, I vanished from there before reaching the Miasma as I began clearing the Miasma slowly and slowly. While it was time consuming in the beginning, perhaps because I was getting used to it, I started becoming more fluid in the energy conversion process. I wasn't just converting it into elemental energy, but in other forms as well.

Some of the miasma was easily convertible to Aura, while others were easy to change into elemental form. There were a bit more energy types, but I knew little about them. Though just with this much knowledge, my speed increased at least 2 to 3 times.

'Hmmm?'

I saw a bunch of flying monsters coming towards my way as fast as they could. Some were griffin-like, but more of a half dark body, while the others were insect-like. A few birds and wyverns were also there, with their eyes burning red and black.

-Krrreeeeee!!!!

They shouted as they reached close to me. Though before they could attack me,

"[Ground Zero: First Slash]" I mumbled as I slashed them apart in one slash, before moving to the next wave of monsters.

[Warp!]

[Ground Zero: First Slash!]

"Hmmm... let's see..." I then rummaged my system to try out a bunch of skills that I bought from [Shop].

[Oblivion Zone (Level 10) (Rare)!]

[Description: By the Gods of Space, the young porter of the Gods was granted the ability to hold things together so that he will have an ease in travel between the two worlds. This skill was then diluted by a number of times before it was given to the lower world.

Effects: Allows the user to create a ball of vacuum that attracts all things towards it for a limited amount of time.

Time Points Required: 20,000

Time of Effect: 30 seconds!

Cooldown: 2 minutes!

Note: A backlash will occur after the skill ends, making the zone throw out everything at once!]

I chose this skill to start with since its application was usable right now. It would increase the efficiency of hunting the monsters faster.

First is to use the skill to bring all the monsters together.

[Oblivion Zone!]

A ball of space formed in front of me, as it began absorbing all the air, including the miasma into it. It would have been good if it didn't throw out everything in the end.

The monsters began falling into the hole, forming an enormous ball that was trying to escape the vacuum as much as it could. Though it was a kind of futile?

[Origin Zero: First Slash!]

I used the slash gain, cutting all the monsters inside the hole at once. All the monsters vanished, giving me tons of experience points before I looked at the miasma trapped in the vacuum right there.

'Hmmm...' I gave it a thought before moving close to the vacuum that was filled with only miasma now. The next wave of monsters was too far, so I changed the energy signature for now.

I began using my skills on the dense miasma, but sadly, rather than being faster, it was actually slower than before. Hmmm. I guess I won't be getting any faster than this.

And with no further ado, I began changing more miasma into normal energy. At this point it wasn't visible but the normal energy, as I said, was increasing in amount slowly and slowly. Let's say it was about a percent of the whole miasma? But it surely was..

Now the energy that was converted was also slowly fighting to change the other miasma into natural form, though it was falling badly and some part of the natural energy was returning to miasma form as well.

It was a bad thing at this level... but if the energy were to increase over 50%, the elemental energy will take over, making the entire planet heal itself automatically. But that's a thing that I would discover a little later than now.

For the time being, I was simply clearing the miasma one step at a time. Because of my infinite energy, I didn't lack any stamina or conversion energy that stopped me from working.

And before I knew it, hours and days passed with me simply clearing the Miasma.

While I was cleaning it here, Aarick was also eating away the miasma at an almost equal rate to mine. We were both engrossed in the work, which continued for a few more days before the conversion process became automatic on its own.

More like the amount of energy increased so much that the miasma was losing to it and converting back into its natural form on its own.

It was around that time; I met Aarick once again, as we both crossed paths while clearing the Miasma. He wasn't just eating away the miasma but passing the power to Diaspora as well, accordingly she would benefit more from the power than Aarick himself.

"Seems like you really didn't run away," I joked as I smiled at him, making him smirk at me before adding," a man can't back down, can he?"

I smiled before I began clearing the miasma again and so did he... and before we knew it; we ended up changing the energy nature of the entire planet.

Something that was deemed either impossible or simply a waste of time by many.
