Against The Gods With An Anime System

Chapter 104 - A Trip to Another Place

(A.N.: Enjoy this chapter and don't forget to vote for me. This chapter is 95% the same as the one that I deleted, but I have replaced the nerf I did on my MC with a... pseudo-nerf so to speak. What that entails, you will have to see for yourselves. Turns out that after reading your comments and seeing how much you hated it, I realized that I went a step too far. So with this rewrite, I hope I will have satisfied you all.)

"Yes. I am from another universe. I died in my own universe and reincarnated in this universe."

Looking at him, Xia Qingyue remained silent and didn't move a single muscle as she let this information sink in. After a while she started looking at with a 'What are you talking about?' look on her face. Realizing that she didn't believe him, which was to expected, Mesa continued with his story: "You see, the reason I know so much about everything is that after my death and subsequent reincarnation, I was endowed with knowledge about this universe and some knowledge about the multiverse. So that why I know about the God's Realm existence and why no one else on this planet knows about it. And about that Lich King. He too was from another world. How he got here is something I have no idea. But at least we won't have to worry about him anymore."

And so Mesa went on explaining about himself. He told her about his life in America and his death and subsequent resurrection on the Blue Pole Star. When she asked him about the Hidden Leaf Village and why he lied about that. He told her that he didn't technically lie, for when he reincarnated into this universe, for some unknown reason, he was in this and had inherited its memories from the Hidden Leaf Village. And so, they talked about everything. He told her about Earth and all the different countries, languages and cultures. He told her about how there was no Profound Energy on Earth but that humanity had managed to conquer the planet with nothing but ingenuity and the will to explore the laws of nature. He also talked about his powers and treasure and how they work and where they came from, except for the Infinity Gauntlet and the Infinity Stones. But what he didn't mention was the One Above All, JARVIS, Jasmine and Ophis.

'Seeing as how I was freaking out when I first met Ophis and Jasmine had a nervous breakdown, introducing Ophis to Xia Qingyue will probably end up with her dropping dead on the spot.' Thought Mesa to himself as he finished telling his story to Xia Qingyue and answering her questions.

"So, now that I have told you everything and answered all your questions, it's time for you to uphold your end of the deal." Said Mesa as he stood up.

"So, what should I do then?" Asked Xia Qingyue.

"Just open your mouth and stick out your tongue. I will place my finger upon your tongue and place the curse seal." Said Mesa with Xia Qingyue doing as he told her. Placing his left index finger on her tongue, Mesa activates the curse seal.

CURSE MARK: CURSED TONGUE ERADICATION SEAL

Feeling a burning feeling on her tongue, Mesa quickly takes his finger of her tongue and gives her a mirror. Looking at her tongue in the mirror, Xia Qingyue sees the curse mark in the form of three solid lines and two broken lines running from the back of her tongue to the tip.

"Sorry about all this, but you have to understand that I must take these extreme measures in order to safeguard my secrets." Said Mesa to which Xia Qingyue nodded understandably.

"Mesa, is it still possible to talk about everything we have talked about today if it is only between the two of us? Everything you've told me is so fascinating and I wanna know more about Earth." Asked Xia Qingyue curiously.

"Of course. That curse seal just prevents you from speaking about this to everyone, except me and those who I approve of. We can always talk about this at any time without any problems with just the two of us." Said Mesa, before he put Xia Qingyue into a genjutsu and had her go to sleep, for he didn't want her see what he would do next.

Sitting back on Vimana's throne, Mesa accessed JARVIS to see which Infinity Stone he would get for completing the Emergency Quest.

["Congratulation sir for completing Emergency Quest. You have been awarded with the Evil God's Water Seed & 1 Infinity Stone (Randomly Chosen)"]

['Alright JARVIS, give me my quest rewards.']

["Very well sir."]

Holding out his hands, two light appear in front of Mesa. A moment later when the lights had died down, two objects fell in his hands. In his right hand was a small blue marble and his right hand was a scepter with a long golden handle and a black fitting which held a blue gem encircled with silver blades.

'Well, well, well. Looks like I got the Mind Stone.' Thought Mesa as he looked at the scepter with a smile on his face. Ripping off the silver bladed that encased the blue gem within the scepter, Mesa takes out the blue gem and crushes it between his hands. Looking at what was left, he saw a shining yellow gem with the remains the blue gem, the Mind Stone. Picking up the Mind Stone, he manifested the Infinity Gauntlet once more and brought it to the socket on the back of the hand. Holding the Mind Stone above the back hand socket, it was slowly being attracted towards it, before it slammed into it and lodging itself in the Infinity Gauntlet.

Closing his eyes, Mesa feels like his mind is suddenly expanded and feeling a sense of true enlightenment. He knew that this was the Mind Stone at work and granting him unlimited mental powers and the psionic powers like telepathy and telekinesis. And now that he had both the Power Stone and the Mind Stone, he could now access all mind and dreams of every person in this universe without them being able to stop him or even notice him.

But just as he wanted to try and use the Mind Stone, he gets assaulted by a sudden bout of exhaustion and could barely keep his eyes open. After a futile struggle to stay awake, he fell asleep while he sat on the throne. Vimana in the meantime, stayed airborne camouflaged while Mesa and Xia Qingyue were asleep on top of it.

When he woke up, Mesa noticed that he was sitting at a table inside a completely white void. Looking around to get a sense of where he was, he soon notices that on the side of the table sat the One Above All himself. Obviously freaked out at meeting the One Above All again, Mesa tried to bow before him, but noticed that he couldn't move his body.

"Don't bother with that Ray. I have brought you here for some serious business." Said the One Above All as he held up his hand.

"Do you remember back when you put that Power Stone inside the Infinity Gauntlet and you were wondering why it boosted your power so little. You've asked JARVIS about it and he said that he was limiting its power. After that he said you could use the Power Stone to boost yourself and use all its other powers, but at a cost." Said the One Above All seriously.

"Y-y-yes. I remember. B-b-but what cost could that be?" Said Mesa nervously.

"This is the cost. For so recklessly endangering your own life by using the Power Stone like that, you will go on a mandatory training camp. You thought you could use the Power Stone without any problems and get stronger, but that is not the case. I may have given you that Infinity Stone, but it doesn't mean you can just use it like that and endanger your own life. So your punishment will be that you will have to train really hard in order to to be able to use the Power Stone safetely. After you have left that Heaven Secret Basin Realm place and go back to the Mighty Heavenly Sword Villa, you will have to go and find a place where you can train on your own. And until that time, active use of both the Mind Stone and the Power Stone are sealed away and any other future Infinity Stone, but the passive effects of the Infinity Stones remain active. You will be training very hard every day, until you you can use the Power Stone safetely. If you decide to ignore this, then I will seal away all your powers until you go on this training camp." Said the One Above All.

I know that I have used the Power Stone recklessly and endangered my own life, but I had to do it in order to defeat all those monsters that were coming for me." Said Mesa desperately pleading his case.

"Yes, that may be so. But when you went up against the Lich King you didn't have that problem anymore, did you. You figured out that if you used the Power Stone by putting the same amount power into boosting your own strength and at the same time into Avalon and your instant healing powers, that you could use it safely. But even then you knew that it was just a temporary solution and that you couldn't do it forever. You knew that you had to train your body in order to handle its immense power. So consider this your incentive to train. The training that you will have to do doesn't entail a lot of that cultivation. This training will be you going through a lot of physical training. How you want to do it is up to you." Said the One Above All.

Hearing all this, Mesa was dismayed, but at least he wasn't thrown into the deep end with concrete shoes on. At least he hadn't lost his strength that he worked so hard for to get. And he already knew the perfect cover-up he could use to go on his secluded training camp. He knew he had to train his body a lot in order to handle the immense power of the Power Stone, but he always thought he would come around to doing that one day. But for things to turn out like this was unexpected. But at least with the Mind Stone and the Power Stone in hand, he could severely shorten the training time. Since he could use the Power Stone to create many Shadow Clones to shorten training time and with the Mind Stone he could summon as many Shadow Clones as he wanted.

"So, it's time for you to return. I will, just this one time, restore all the damage your body has sustained because of your reckless use of the Power Stone. And FYI, you can use the Mind Stone just one time and only to access the last vestiges of the Evil God's consciousness that he left in that water seed. Outside of that, you can't use the Mind Stone, not until you have completed your training and you can safetely use the Power Stone. So, with that out of the way, it is time for you to leave." Said the One Above All as he snapped his fingers and everything went dark. Waking up, Mesa saw he was still sitting on the throne. After checking his body and seeing that he really was healed up, he decided to see if he could use the Power Stone. But as he had expected, it was unusable right now.

"…<deep breath>… Guess there's nothing that I can do about it, except doing as the One Above All told me to." Mumbled Mesa to himself as he held the Evil God's Water Seed in his left hand and clenched his right hand into a fist, activating the Mind Stone.

Feeling something within the Evil God's Water Seed, Mesa uses the Mind Stone and draws it out until it he hears a voice in his head.

"You're only an ordinary human. Yet you possess an extraordinary fortune and fate. Your experiences tell me that you're a qualified successor. You have inherited my powers, which means… Wait a second. You don't have my powers! How are you able to contact my last remaining vestige of my conscious without inheriting the legacy of my powers that I left behind?" Said the voice inside Mesa's head belonging to the Evil God.

"Ohh it's very simple. I went around the problem of having to have inherited your legacy by using the Mind Stone, one of the six Infinity Stones." Said Mesa nonchalantly.

"Mind Stone? Infinity Stones? What are those? There is no way an ordinary human like you, or even another God could go around having to have inherited my legacy in order for me to contact you." Said the Evil God incredulously.

"How I did that is not important. All you need to know is that I used an Infinity Stone to contact you. So how about you use the last bits of your power and send me over to the continent above the place where your daughter is sealed inside that world of darkness. I'll try and help her get out of there." Said Mesa, much to the distress of the Evil God.

"H-h-how do you know that?! Nobody but me knows about that!" Said the Evil God.

"Simple, I have used the Mind Stone to read your mind. And just in case you say that that is not possible, let me put it to you this way. Using the Mind Stone, I can literally read ANYONE'S mind. It doesn't matter what kind countermeasure they have in place to counteract other people reading their mind or if they even notice it in the first place. So with that out of the way, let's get back to business. I know you have sealed one half of your daughter's soul inside that world of darkness and the other half inside the Primordial Profound Ark. Luckily for you, I possess the Sky Poison Pearl, so I can cure your daughter who is on the Primordial Profound Ark of that poison she is suffering from. As for your daughter that is stuck inside that world of darkness, I can get her out of there. All I would need is the Soul Stone and then I can break the soul bond you have placed on her to bind her to that place and take her out of there." Said Mesa, much to the disbelief of the Evil God.

"But… that is not possible! You are just an ordinary human and one who is only at level 7 Emperor Profound Realm. What can you do against all those who are stronger than you and want to suppress you?!" Said the Evil God.

"Fine than. If you don't believe me, just look at my memories and see for yourself." Said Mesa as he relaxed his mind and allowed the Evil God to look into it. A few minutes later, the Evil God exited his mind and Mesa could feel that it was really shaken up.

"So, now that you have been through my memories. Have you seen the One Above All?" Said Mesa.

"…yes." Said the Evil God in a small voice.

"And you have also seen that one of my best friends is Ophis, the Infinite Dragon God, who is as strong as the Ancestral God and is journeying with me now, right?"

"…yes." Said the Evil God in a small voice.

"So, do you have anything more to say to that?"

"But-but the laws of the Heavens…." Said the Evil God in a desperate attempt to hold on to how he thought the universe worked.

"Can go f.u.c.k themselves." Said Mesa

"So, how's about you send me to that continent and I will take care of the rest myself. You can leave the fate of your daughters in my hands. Once I have the Primordial Profound Ark and the Space Stone and the Reality Stone, I will recreate Disney Land and Six Flags and all other theme parks on it and make sure they have all the fun in the world." Said Mesa.

"…Ok. I guess if I had to leave their fate in the hands of anyone, yours would be the best." Said the Evil God as he felt the distort around himself. Putting Articuno back in the tattoo on his right hand, he picked up Xia Qingyue in a princess carry and waited for them to be taken away.

"Remember, you can only stay there for 48 hours. After that, you will be f.o.r.c.i.b.l.y taken back here. And thank you for doing this for me." Said the Evil God as Mesa felt his presence fade away from his mind. And after that the world faded away and he found himself in a lush green forest.
