Chapter 1073 Spirit Beasts And God Sparks

The castle hall fell silent for a while.

Nira Nightshade took her time to choose her words carefully before speaking up.

"The establishments of Anfang still decided to heed God Vulcan's suggestions for the greater good. They thought that their misery would end once the continent-encompassing array was formed.

However, they eventually found out that things were not as simple as God Vulcan had them believe. It turned out that he was using sacrificial energy to create God Sparks."

Nira sighed and shook her head before continuing.

"The world of Anfang is not what you'd call a top-tier world.

The chances of it developing a God Spark naturally are close to zero. Therefore, God Vulcan used the sacrificial energy as a catalyst to create the possibilities for God Sparks to exist.

Various Spirit Beasts were born into the land of Anfang as a result of God Vulcan's way of playing god. These Spirit Beasts were the manifestations of the World Will and the various elemental laws it has.

The God Vulcan's followers were joyful about the results. They started chanting his name even louder, calling his deeds "the miracles of a god."

The Sage Archer flashed a cunning smile as she spoke her next words with a tinge of fervor.

"You know why they were joyful? That's because Spirit Beasts can turn into God Sparks."

An eerie atmosphere started to spread.

Nira Nightshade looked at Eren intently. And the latter knew at that time why the Sage was cooperating with him so much. She expected a hefty reward for her information.

? She had sniffed out the existence of something special Eren had in his possession. Eren's voice turned grim as he said his next words with a tinge of suppressed anger injected into them.

"My Spirit Beast!

You want my Spirit Beast in return for the information. You want to cultivate a God Spark for yourself."

Eren deduced Nira Nightshade's intentions and asked her to confirm them openly. His voice was cold and callous and his aura started having a bit of bloodlust.

Nira Nightshade was stunned by Eren's boldness. But she smiled and ignored Eren's feeble protest. It didn't bother her that a mere C-ranker was angry at her for demanding something precious.

She knew Eren wouldn't understand what he had in his possession. Not really. Hence, she expected him to turn angry at her "request."

Nira Nightshade assumed that she needed to make Eren understand that what he had wasn't useful for him now.

She smiled brightly at Eren before speaking further.

"That's right.

The Spirit Beasts are incredibly difficult to find in any world, Eren. Only one of the thousands of worlds would have them. Can you imagine such a disparity?

Even if you know that a particular world has them, finding the Spirit Beast is extremely difficult. Making them show themselves in your presence is even more so.

Can you imagine the difficulty level of finding a Spirit Beast now? Multiply that level by 100 and it still wouldn't give you the exact picture of how difficult it is."

Nira's crimson eyes shone with a tinge of greed as she continued.

"I'm telling you all this to make you understand the true danger you are in by carrying something like a Spirit Beast with you. The rarity of a Spirit Beast makes it extremely sought-after by all the strong individuals in and outside of Anfang.

You are basically painting a target on your back by possessing a conscious fragment of the World's Will. Especially with your current ranking status.

The Spirit Beasts can't die as long as the worlds that birthed them continue to exist. However, they can't be captured or claimed so easily. One needs extreme luck and talent to get their hands on a Spirit Beast.

Show of force doesn't work on a Spirit Beast. It'll just vanish into thin air if the owner dies. And it can't be taken away from the owner if he doesn't hand it over willingly.

However, rankers like me just need to press the right buttons to get you to yield to our wishes. Don't you want your city to prosper so that it can support your growth? Don't you want more information about the past to make sense of the present?"

Nira Nightshade's threats were subtle and on point. She didn't try to antagonize Eren directly. But her words implied that she wanted Eren's Spirit Beast under any condition. That she was willing to go to any length to get it.

Eren wanted to say something to Nira Nightshade at that time. Her overwhelming soul sense shut him up before she addressed the issue he was about to raise.

"Yes, my soul sense powers are special. I admit that Spirit Beasts can't be detected easily by everyone. Even Sages would find it nearly impossible to detect something like that on you.

However, one thing you should never do is underestimate Sages. They all have their own ways of getting the truth out of you. If normal ways don't work, they'll just do something extreme. Which makes them even more dangerous."

Nira Nightshade walked close to Eren and grabbed his jaw with her ghostly hands. The Sage's apparition was almost as tall as Eren, allowing them to look into each other's eyes.

Nira Nightshade got extremely close to him before whispering her next set of words.

"I am doing you a favor, Eren.

You don't even have any use for the Spirit Beast at your current rank, do you? However, you'll have to face the danger of being targeted by people like me once the information gets out. What will you do at that time?

I'll give you all the information you need. Plus, I'll give you my entire legacy. I'll even put in a good word for you. It is enough for you to live like royalty within the borders of Anfang for as long as you want to stay here.

All in exchange for the Spirit Beast you have. You have to agree to hand it over willingly before we proceed any further.

Tell me, Eren Elijah Idril. Do you agree with my offer?"
