Chapter 14: Rewards and more rewards
-- "Congratulation human! You are the first one on your planet to clear a Peak Rank C Grade Dungeon. You can select 2 rewards";
1. Weapons
2. Armors
3. Auxiliary Items.
4. Energy Pond [Attention using the energy pond requires 1 reward choice and lasts for one hour.]
5. Miscellaneous Items.
6. Techniques
Just as Nova\'s mind received the information, he started searching for what could help him better in the long run.
Firstly, for the first three sections, he already had his Green Inksword, Armor and Pendant.
So he skipped this because the best item there was only of Rank 5. So, instead of wasting a precious reward choice for things he already had, he thought of browsing the other rewards sections.
As Nova was browsing through the list Imperia was looking at him and didn\'t say anything to disturb him. She was curious about what he would choose.
In her mind, the best thing one could get was definitely the energy pond. What best reward was there than an increase in your cultivation?
Finally, after half an hour of browsing Nova opened his eyes and decided on what he would choose.
The Energy Pond was an obvious choice. He could even choose what energy to absorb, and he would take time energy.
Because he could cultivate for 23 hours the space energy in the mountain he will choose time energy, which is a rare resource even in the universe.
For the second reward, he chose a technique called \'Time Regeneration\' or \'Regeneration\' for short. Using a certain portion of his time energy, he could heal all kinds of wounds, even lost limbs.
A bonus effect would be when he\'s cursed because he can reverse time to his body at the moment before the curse would take effect, basically gaining immunity to it.
Of course, it depends on how much time energy he has in his body because at its current state, it\'s almost impossible to regrow a lost limb without using a dozens times his current energy.
After Nova made his choices, he glanced at Imperia.
Seeing her just smiling back at him almost made him forgot to tell her about what he would choose.
"Did you make your choice?" Asked a curious Imperia.
"Yes, I choose the energy pond and a technique called \'Regeneration\'." Nova responded to her earlier question.
Hearing that, she furrowed her brows.
\'Why is that technique here in a low-level dungeon of a barely awakened world? I thought it disappeared for good...\' Still, she just praised him for having such a good vision.
"Oh, I almost forgot what energy you chose for the energy pond?" Once again Imperia asked.
"I had to choose time energy because I didn\'t see a mountain with it on my way here. I can cultivate space energy here for another 23 hours after I use the energy pond." Stated Nova, without much care for her thoughts.
"Wait you can also use time energy?!" Imperia was shocked by Nova\'s answer.
"Well, it\'s because of my Space-Time Bloodline that I can use both space and time energy." Answered Nova, very confident of his answer.
"You have Space-Time Bloodline?! How can that be possible? You tell me honestly, are you from the Space-Time Shrine?" Imperia was doubting him.
"Space-Time Shrine? I\'ve never heard of it. What\'s that?" Nova was a little confused, not knowing about this \'Shrine\'.
"The Space-Time Shrine is one of the 10 leading powers of the universe with numerous Stage 9 powerhouses and millions of Stage 8 ones.
In terms of power, they are definitely top 2 contesting for over millions of years with the Death Shrine." Imperia tried to explain to Nova about the Space-Time Shrine and make him realize how important his bloodline actually is.
Nova was shocked when he heard about those two Shrines, and the power they had.
"Wait, you said your family also had Stage 9 powerhouses?" Only now did Nova caught on to her words.
Imperia felt a little smug and said,"Actually, my Vientienne family is also one of the top 10 forces, we are definitely in the top 5. The Two Shrines, 3 Clans, 4 Families, and 1 Auction House. That\'s the top of the universe."
Waiting for Nova to be shocked about what he heard, Imperia was the one shocked by his demeanor, which completely changed from a few seconds ago his eyes once again changed to a deep gold as she heard him muttering.
"Sometime in the future, I\'ll be going beyond them and stand at the Apex." Nova too, was stunned by what he said and wondered why he did that.
The two remained silent for a while, not knowing what to say.
After this little episode, Nova offered Imperia to heal her with \'Regeneration\' by using the energy pond to replenish his energy.
"Thank you, but no. Use it well to cultivate and break through a higher stage. The world you have been tossed now is one of survival. Remember that. Just because in your world before the Awakening began, you didn\'t strive to step over others or had to fight for resources, now this is a must.
Believe me, now everything will change, especially when you\'ll go to another world. Besides, my family will heal me with a flick of their fingers." Imperia tried to warn Nova about this wild, new world he was in right now.
It was because in most cases humans won\'t die killed by monsters, but by their own greed and ambition that pushed them forward to do unimaginable things to others.
Nova tried his best to engrave these words in his mind and remember them forever. Although it wasn\'t necessary because he felt that the moment he Awakened his Apex Bloodline he would one day stand atop everything in existence, or he will die trying to do so.
"All these things said I have to leave because it seems the dungeon doesn\'t want me here anymore." Just as Imperia said that she slowly started to deconstruct in motes of light.
"Here, take this mask with you it will help with energy absorption and will make others unable to see your Stage clearly. Also, it could change your energy, making others unable to recognize something about you. Remember, my name is Imperia Vientienne. Let\'s meet again in the future Nova."
Hearing that she has to go Nova was a little sad, because he kinda liked her. He felt grateful for the mask, and after making his mind, he activated \'Speeding\'. He was suddenly in front of Imperia, and after seeing her so shocked, he leaned in and kissed her.
"Remember, my name is Nova Calypso Apeiron, and in the future, I will definitely find you again." Nova stood in front of Imperia and decisively declared.
After getting over the shock of having her first kiss stolen, Imperia was once again shocked by finally hearing Nova\'s full name.
"You fuc..." Sadly, her words were completely cut off, as she was transported out of the dungeon.
Nova was a little worried that this sudden outburst of his, would make her mad at him, and affect their relationship in the future.
\'Still, it was worth it to kiss those moist lips. Hopefully, she won\'t take it out on me next time.\'
Thought Nova as he touched his lips, savoring everything about his first kiss.
