Rebirth: Tyrant's New Reality

'Aquatic Dark Bubbles!' Sierra executed her SSS rank skill of Dark and Water affinity as five dark watery bubbles of big watermelon-sized conjured and shot toward a group of butterflies flapping their wings to produce golden motes.

Those golden motes were affecting Sierra and Meya mentally and making them dizzy, so Sierra quickly attacked with her <Aquatic Dark Bubbles> skill.

The five bubbles shot towards the group of butterflies before bursting with a potent explosion that created black ink-like substances and drenched all butterflies.

Most of the butterflies died quickly as they melted into dark goo because of the potent dark elemental power.

The butterflies who were out of the range managed to stay alive. However, they were killed by Meya's new weapon and skill combo. Her new weapon was an exquisite dark green hand fan with golden patterns!

Meya waved her hand-fan as a powerful gust of green wind materialized since she executed her skill through her weapon for a boost.

The powerful gusts of winds with sharp wind waves in them shredded the remaining butterflies.

"This is too easy… All beasts are dying with one attack. Let's just use wide-area attacks to kill them quickly," Meya said.

"True. Only that single dream beast we encountered at first was as powerful as a peak 5th-grade dire beast. The rest we encountered are not as powerful," Sierra nodded before she suddenly smiled and said, "let me handle the rest. I got a perfect skill for constant wide area damage."

After saying that, Sierra closed her eye for a moment before opening them just as fast and raising both of her hands.

Her energy readings significantly increased as dark clouds started forming on top of her. It was a unique pitch-black dark cloud with deep blue patterns in them. At the center of the cloud was an eye-shaped symbol.

'Now, I just need to do a little bit of modification,' Sierra thought as she changed the formation of her skill slightly.

Meya saw the cloud becoming five meters in diameter before deep blue tentacles started producing from the cloud!

A total of ten deep blue tentacles wiggled around with black motes sparkling inside each of them.

"Woah, what kind of skill is this?" Meya was startled.

Sierra proudly grinned in said, "It's an EX+ rank skill that I created. Moreover, it's a very versatile skill because It has three modes of execution, and I can modify it based on those three modes.

"In this modified mode of execution, those ten meters tentacles can go up to 20 meters and will attack whoever I intend to. I just need to look at the target, and the tentacles will attack. I can also set it such that the tentacles will attack every living being around me automatically."

"EX+?! Wow," Meya was shocked and awed. "What's the name of the skill?"

"Abyssal Olden Gaze," Sierra said with a smile and pointed at the eye on the cloud, "that eye is the core part of the skill. Anyway, the current mode of this skill is Abyssal Rampage. It's for wide-area attacks.

Mind you, I just modified it in such a way for the first time, haha. The real Abyssal Rampage is actually a bit different, as it's a one-time wide-area attack. But I modified it to constant low-potency attacks so that we can kill dream beasts quicker."

'It seems that sister Sierra is a battle maniac,' Meya internally chuckled. Hehe, I can learn much from her regarding combat skills.'

"Let's go and see how this skill goes. I also executed like this for the first time," Sierra said with a hint of excitement in her eyes as she flew forward toward the next island.

After arriving at the next floating island, Sierra quickly found a few groups of dream beasts of various types.

'Bam,' Sierra looked at a group of monkeys opening their mouths towards her as they released golden energy bullets.

However, the tentacles in the cloud shot toward the monkeys the moment her gaze landed on them.

The incoming golden energy bullets were wiped out as the tentacles blocked them while shooting toward the monkeys.

*Smash! Smash! Smash! Smash! Smash!*

The deep blue tentacles with dark motes in them slammed in absolute power as all beasts died!

'Next!' Sierra turned her head to the right as six vultures were flying towards her with bloodthirsty red eyes.

But the moment her gaze landed on them, the rampaging tentacles squashed all those flying beasts.

The moment tentacles touched them, the powerful force and effect of the tentacles melted the vultures after they were smacked far away due to the impact.

"Wow, this skill is indeed very good for constantly killing weaker beasts in a large area," Meya's eyes shined as she saw the power and effectiveness of Sierra's skill.

…

On the other hand, Arkhen visited the mission hall in the central peak of the sect. He wanted to enter the doomed tower, but he had to wait until Sierra and Meya finished their tasks. So meanwhile, he decided to check out the mission hall.

"Hello, senior Arkhen!"

"Greetings, senior Arkhen! How are you?"

"Senior Arkhen, are you here to pick up a mission?"

Arkhen wryly smiled as he greeted each group of disciples who greeted him and answered them.

Of course, not all disciples were that excited.

As Arkhen neared the big central round desk, he saw a group of four disciples looking in their late twenties murmuring something while looking at him.

Arkhen didn't bother with that and asked the lady behind the desk, "Hi, can you tell me what is the highest level of missions I can take?"

"Hello, Arkhen. As you are a core disciple, you can take max-rank missions. Max rank of missions is 5-star. However, there exists another rank of mission that requires certain conditions to accept. They are called Special-rank missions."

After saying that, she took out a crystal and continued, "Here, there are currently seventeen 5-star missions available and three special-rank skills," said the beautiful girl behind the table. Her name was Chiwan. She looked in her late twenties and had light green long hair.

She gave Arkhen the crystal that produced a misty hologram with seventeen 5-star missions and three special-rank missions listed.

[Suspicious Activity Detection near Poison Flair Valley (5-star)]

[Squash the unrest rising in villages near Serpent Mountain (5-star)]

…

"You can expand on the details of the missions by touching them," Chiwan said.

Arkhen nodded as he touched a mission he felt he could finish quickly.

[Bring three beast cores of Vajra Prism Rhinos (5-star)]

Arkhen expanded that mission and saw its details, location, and other details of Vajra Prism Rhinos.

'Velshi. How long it will take for Sierra and Meya to destroy the Dream Fragment.'

[With their current speed, they will be done in an hour or two max].

'Hmm…' Arkhen thought for a moment before asking miss Chiwan, "how long it will take for me to arrive at this place where I can find Vajra Prism Rhinos?"

Chiwan wryly smiled and said, "The location is near the border of our sect's territory and Dark Shadow Tower. To put it simply, there's a small territory between both borders, and these Vajra Prism Rhinos are located there. Not many core disciples accept missions there because members of Dark Shadow Tower also go there for their missions."

"Hmm? Does this mean that core disciples here are weaker than core members of Dark Shadow Tower?" Arkhen asked as he raised his eyebrows.
