Chapter 246 The Thirteenth Member Of The Apocalypse [Part 3] "Since the maximum Core that someone who is about to become a Rookie is a Rank 5 Monster, why did you choose Arundel's Core?" Thirteen asked calmly. "Do you want me to die perhaps?" "Of course not." Metatron chuckled. "In fact, I genuinely wish to help you, Thirteen. After all, you have so many restrictions placed on your body. I find you truly pitiful, you know?" Hearing those words, a frown appeared on the seven-year-old's face. He didn't know how the Metatron knew about the restrictions placed in his body. "I may only be a residual Will of my True Self, but remember this, Thirteen. In this world, I stand above the Celestials and Fiends," Metatron said. "You can even say that I am the being that is closest to becoming God. Because of this, I am able to see the restrictions on your body just by looking at you. "Since you will stay as a Rookie for life, wouldn't it be a shame if you didn't get Arundel's Core and gain a fraction of his power?" Metatron was like a devil tempting Thirteen to sell his soul to him in exchange for something good. But the boy knew that the being in front of him was worse than a Devil. However, he also knew how devils operated because one of his hosts was an Arch Devil in the past. "Don't worry, I will not do anything bad to you," Metatron stated. "In fact, I very much support you. After all, you're just like me, don't you think? Both of us hate Fate. So, why don't I help you absorb this Majin Core that belonged to a Prince? "Also, I will give you one more bonus. After you successfully absorb this core, I will allow you to choose one skill that belongs to Arundel and make it your power." "That won't happen," Thirteen shook his head. "I am unable to learn any skills." "Correction, Thirteen." Metatron wagged his finger in front of the boy, shaking it left and right. "You're unable to learn skills the normal way. But with my help, you will be able to learn one of Arundel's powers. Didn't I tell you? I am the closest to becoming a God in this world. "If The One can bestow skills upon you, I can easily do the same. The fun part is that your restrictions can't do anything?about it. Do you want me to tell you why?" Thirteen nodded. "It's because whoever placed those restrictions on you broke the rules of the world," Metatron explained. "Because of this, the power restricting you is stretched very thin. If that restriction were to try rejecting a skill given to you by someone extremely powerful, what do you think would happen?" "The restrictions would collapse," Thirteen answered in a heartbeat. Metatron nodded. "That's right. So, the moment your restrictions refuse this skill, it will reach its limit and shatter into countless pieces. This will allow you to break free from the hold of a God who thought that they could shackle those who wished to fight against Fate." Thirteen's expression became serious because according to his calculations, Metatron was right. Thirteen read the information of the skills and abilities in front of him for several minutes, taking time to understand the pros and cons for using them. Arundel possessed many skills, so it took a while for Thirteen to read all of them. Metatron, who seemed to be happy to have someone to talk to, waited patiently for Thirteen to finish choosing. In the end, the boy decided to choose Arundel's Signature move, which was called "Disintegrator." That was the same ability that he used to completely erase the Golden Bolt that Thirteen had specially prepared for him. ——————————————— < Congratulations! You have learned the skill, Disintegrator! > < Disintegrator > — Once a week, you will be able to use the skill that can completely disintegrate anything you touch, leaving nothing behind. — You can only disintegrate living creatures that are of the same Rank, or weaker than you. — You are able to disintegrate any inorganic object, regardless of their Rank. — Golem constructs, or any other artificially created life forms will also be disintegrated by this ability, regardless of their rank. ——————————————— A faint smile appeared on Thirteen's face. Although this skill could only be used once a week and was ineffective against living creatures who were stronger than him, it was still very useful because he could use it in many ways. Metatron also grinned. The boy didn't disappoint him and chose Arundel's strongest skill. "Well, then. You can now choose two more items from Arundel's collection," Metatron crossed his arms over his chest. "After that, I will let you pick one item from the Treasury of the Apocalypse. So, be sure to choose only the best, okay?" Thirteen didn't need Metatron to say that to him. Even now, he was busy checking all of Arundel's possessions, looking for things that he or his subordinates could use, which would help them greatly when they arrived on the Main Continent of Solterra.
