Genetic Ascension novel Chapter 2221

Sylas sat and stared at the Quest for a long while.

It had only taken him less than two years to reach his current level, and he had even had to overcome the Summoning first before he could really start steamrolling to higher levels of power.

But even if he managed to keep up this same level of pace, at this rate, it would take him probably 10 times that amount of time before he managed to be as untouchable on the Demi-God Plane as he had been on the Mortal Plane.

As though that assessment wasn't already bad enough, that was just a measure of being untouchable in the Skai Heaven. Whether or not Sylas had actually been untouchable in the other Heavens, Heavens that would surely be his enemies this time if he wanted to clear this quest, wasn't up for debate.

He wasn't.

Even their B-tiers had a chance of being somewhat dangerous to him depending on their talent, let alone their A-tiers.

Even Sylas' 20 year assessment was assuming that he found ways to continue to accelerate his rate of growth like he had back on the Mortal Plane as well. And it also factored in ensuring that he managed to claim all the secrets of the Sanctum himself as well, expunging the influence of Rhykan and taking all the rewards.

But the timeline he had for doing that was already about a year alone, how was he going to grow strong enough to wipe out a Clan like this in a year?

Could he just use the system again?

There was no way that the system would allow him to clear a Demerit Quest using its power. Even it couldn't possibly be that stupid.

Plus, if the system had already labeled Sylas' targets as Sin Clans, that was to say that it was already aware of their misdeeds.

Usually, Sylas destroyed people with the system by making the system acknowledge their wrongdoings. But if the system was already aware enough to label them Sin Clans, then Sylas wouldn't be telling it anything it didn't already know.

Which by extension also meant that the only reason those Clans weren't destroyed already was because of other worries the system had or, in the case of the Demons… That it couldn't overextend itself and do it.

Sylas continued to read the description of the Quest over and over again, slowly coming to a realization.

The system here… was angry with him.

And it wasn't livid because he had wiped out the Efivara, it couldn't care less about something like that. In fact, to the system, the Efivara were practically a parasite to the world.

They jumped from world to world, laying waste and destroying things the system had spent millions, billions, sometimes in rare instances trillions of years nurturing.

These weren't a Clan of people that the system would ever give Sylas a Demerit for destroying. In fact, the Merit Reward seemed a lot more aligned with it in this case.

The real reason Sylas was receiving this Quest was because the system was angry that he had separated from it, and yet here he was accepting its rewards.

It couldn't learn from Sylas like it had in the past, it couldn't continue to perfect the Path of Will through his insights and breakthroughs. And because of that, it was furious.

Then, to top it all off, Sylas didn't respect it at all while taking its rewards without blinking an eye. Of course it was furious.
