de have acquired Abyssal Blade] Silva felt a surge of power flow through his body as he held that blade; it was like nothing he had ever seen before. The system didn't say anything else about the blade; it didn't tell Silva that he had gained additional stats or anything else, but Silva knew that by holding the sword, he was at the very least ten times stronger. "System, why are there no notifications or messages in the details of this sword?" Silva asked. [Current system level is incapable of calculating the value of this sword or giving even an approximate level.] [System requires an update to be able to understand this blade. Do you wish to update your system for a million SP?] Silva had never known that the system was capable of even upgrading, but today he discovered it was, but the price was half of all the SP he had. He felt the upgrade would be useful; the system might be a cold boss over his life, but it had helped him reach where he was currently. It only made sense to upgrade it to get a better experience. "Alright, upgrade the system," Silva said. [System upgrade has begun; it will finish in forty-eight hours.] [All base system activities will be turned off; you can still access your inventory.] The system upgrade began soon after, and the system went off for the first time since he had gotten it. Silva gazed at the sword in his hands with his eyes glowing in anticipation. "So this was the goal: to get the sword that belonged to the dark dragon. Finally, I have finished what I came to this academy to do," Silva said and started walking slowly. "What is the next step? I can't continue to hide the fact that I am also a demon king candidate. I have reached a level where I should not be bothered by humans anymore. I should show myself for what's to come, and what better place to do that than the Elite competition," Silva said as he walked through the corridors. "Why not simply rise your labyrinth out of the ground and turn it into a city? You have resources and all that anyone would need," Mind Two suddenly spoke. "You asked Dawn to create a mercenary group, so let's use that group as the first connection to the human world after you announce yourself. We may be strong now, but we must be cautious. The best course of action will be to lay claim to the labyrinth and the extensions of the fields and other forests that surround the labyrinth. You will declare them your lands and tell the kingdom that if they choose to fight against you, you will go into battle with them. But you must show them your military strength to let them know what they are up against. You have completed the task of the goddess for now. Rather than go around crazily, it would be best for you to simply create your own kingdom and home and grow your resources with the help of the system. Silva, on the other hand, already had what he would wear. Ever since he came to the library, he had seen armor that he loved. It was a light armor made of dark dragon scales and Orichalcum, one of the strongest metals in their world. It shrunk and expanded using very high-end magical technology. There was also the cape; the cape was made of pure scales that had been tempered by dragon's breath for years and beaten into a fine material. Very light and flexible, yet almost indestructible, it had a very nice engraving in the heart—the sideways head of a dragon made of dark purple. The whole outfit came to fit his new sword; it was perfect. Silva wore the armor and hung the sword at his hip. He allowed his horns to grow out to complete the look and let his dragon eyes glow. He was finished in his getup, and now it was time to wait for Dawn and Elsa. After a few more minutes of waiting, Dawn walked out wearing a new black and silver armor. Her mighty sword was hung on her back; she looked like the kind of warrior men wouldn't mind getting killed by. Her curves were perfectly matched by the armor, and all her assets; Silva couldn't help but swallow. "You look great," he said, getting his head out of the gutter. She blushed in response and looked away immediately. Silva gave her a slight smile and then headed for the door; it was time for him to meet the guests. The door opened, and he walked out with Dawn and Elsa behind him. It was like the world entered slow motion as they passed. Everyone stood in the throne room, watching in confusion as Silva walked out. Fay, his father, both his mothers, Aaron, Sage, Leah, Michael, Mike, Quin, Roxy and Lia. All of them were there, confused at what was going on. They had all been going about their day when they were suddenly sucked into portals. They appeared here and were surrounded by powerful beings that could kill them easily, so they quietly waited for what was to come. But then, after waiting for so long, they all saw the one person they were all familiar with. Or was he not the one? Was it some different person that looked oddly similar to Silva? But was such a resemblance even possible? Those who knew Silva from Ribest saw Dawn behind him, and they all knew for sure that it was Silva. The others who had seen his growth spurt knew exactly what he looked like currently, so they knew it was him. But the air around him was so serious; they always knew Silva was far from normal, but it was because of anything serious. But right now, he was exuding a certain pressure that made all of them hold their breaths while looking at him walk to the throne.
