My Power is Upgrading Everything (Rewrite)

Chapter 41: Dragon Nest (6/6)

--- Chapter 41 ---

A new continent, a place far away from the Douluo Continent and hidden with natural tall rock seas around it. It's a remote place that shouldn't get discovered in the current era, but Dragon Nest did anyway.

Three years ago, Huo Yuhao used Laplace and immediately teleported Dragon Nest to this place with his spatial manipulation and wormholes, bypassing the new continent's natural protection. And They immediately were greeted with a cold gesture from the Water Behemoth, which is pretty understandable.

This place has seven beast lords and no humans since Spirit Beast killed them all 10.000 years ago. A place where natural survival of the fittest was set in stone by the lords, separated into seven domains that were roughly bigger than every continent in Huo Yuhao's previous life combined.

Huo Yuhao has defeated six beast lords after settling down on the new continent for three years. It led the last beast lord, the Auspicious Monarch, to finally find her way to Dragon Nest's land. This creature is known to be the strongest of the seven beast lords.

...

...

Huo Yuhao currently stood on the Dragon Nest's East Border, Bali's Outpost. He's in his black hoodie, facing the strongest creature on this continent with a smile on his face. No ounce of fear but excitement is coming from him.

[Name: Auspicious Monarch]

[Type: Divine-Blooded Spirit Beast]

[Age: 696.696 years old]

[Description: Auspicious Beast is a Mythical Qilin that possesses the Divine Blood of all five Auspicious Beasts, having natural power over fundamental elements and laws that exceed her ancestors. She was the fated-to-be ultimate creature that stands on the Apex of all Spirit Beasts]

The Auspicious Monarch stood before Huo Yuhao. A beautiful horse-looking beast with pure white eyes and majestic green scales all over her body. She possessed a fin on the back of her slender blue-furred legs and a fiery, almost fish-like tail. A pair of majestic black antlers arose proudly above her mane-covered head, with adorable deer ears twitching because of the morning wind.

"Take you quite a while to come here, Auspicious Monarch." Huo Yuhao commented casually. "I thought you wouldn't accept my invitation after three years. After all, you're the only one who doesn't threaten us when coming to this continent."

The Auspicious Monarch blew the morning wind gently with her puff and stared at Huo Yuhao calmly. She had been watching this very human child for three years, and every single of his actions was bizarre and simply out of the norm.

"Human, your actions so far were amazing." She opened her mouth slightly.

"This continent was never meant to be discovered until the second wave of god ascended to heaven. My mothers told me to wait and remain alive until the day of freedom fell to this world. They are telling me myths about humans as a creature."

"Humans are weak, and that's a fact, but their potential, emotion, and wickedness are the ones that drove everything beyond others' expectation. My mothers told me to be wary of everything, especially the greed of humans."

"However, I realized greed has different meanings for every living individual. Is it wrong to be greedy, so your family can eat well? Yes, obviously. So your family can eat well, right?"

"Is it wrong to be greedy on the path of getting more powerful? Yes, obviously. Still, that greed is the fuel to become stronger than anyone else. An ego that was born inside everyone's heart, burning with passion and longing for hope."

The Auspicious Monarch walked using the air below her feet like a flatform and approached Huo Yuhao, staring at the blue-haired teenager with pure white eyes.

"Human, your greed is endless. Yet, is that wrong?"

Huo Yuhao smirked and replied, "No. My greed is endless, and nothing can change it. After all, I promise to reach the top when I arrive in this world."

"Then, let's have a battle of wits." The last beast lord continued while closing her eyes. "Using our powers against each other will only destroy this beautiful land. And I don't want to see that happen. You can decide the game that favors you."

"Oh, Cheating is allowed."

"Are you sure?" Huo Yuhao tilted his head in confusion.

[Name: Dice]

[Type: Extra Skill]

[Grade: SSS]

[Description: A magical dice that could offset the mortal's fate and nullifies incoming damage when activated. Rolling various numbers would change how much damage was received by the user or even cancel the enemy's attack]

"You're putting yourself in a bad situation, you know."

"Especially against a person like me."

[SSS Rank Luck]

[Innate Effect: +55% Luck]

The Auspicious Monarch nodded and responded, "I have a strong belief in my heart."

"Well then." Huo Yuhao amusingly shrugged while lifting his left hand. "Let's settle this with Rock-Paper Scissors."

"This is a simple game where you throw your hand in the shape of a rock, scissors, and paper."

"Rock wins over scissors."

"Paper wins over rock."

"Scissors win over the paper."

"When the same hand signal actually was used, it is considered a tie, and play resumes until there is a clear winner. Simple, right?"

"The game is simpler than my simple life. But Hand? What a dilemma." The Auspicious Monarch frowned while looking at her front leg. She looked at Huo Yuhao and sighed, releasing a blinding light from her body.

Huo Yuhao squinted his eyes slightly and saw a beautiful woman appear before him. She's over 180 cm with a bountiful body and pale blue-colored hair that fades into a darker shade at the end, in a green-scaled dress with inner stocking-like black fabric covering her skin. There are antlers on top of her head and adorable deer ears on the side.

"I haven't used this form for 100 years." She opened her eyes unhurriedly, revealing her white-colored pupil with a yellowish shade. "Please bear it for a moment, Human."

Meanwhile, Huo Yuhao was speechless because this was his first time seeing a spirit beast turning into a human. He knew this was possible as he had also read Douluo Dalu's series in the past.

"Damn..." He mumbled to himself, having an astonished look on his face.

The Auspicious Monarch shook her head for a moment and stretched her human body adorably, bouncing some of her assets around cluelessly. Huo Yuhao coughed a few times and looked at her respectfully.

After five minutes of stretching, the Auspicious Monarch nodded her head because everything seemed alright. There is nothing wrong with her human form. "Let's start." She said with a resolution.

Huo Yuhao smiled and replied, "Let's go."

[Rolling Dice...]

[You have rolled 6]

"Rock..."

"Paper..."

"Scissors!"

...

...

Naga's Den, Huo Yuhao's house.

"And that's how I got the Auspicious Monarch here." Huo Yuhao said while introducing the last beast lord to his family. He watched their expression turn into a full-blown shock.

"Eh?! New cult- I mean member?!"

"ANOTHER WOMAN? HAO'ER!"

"As expected of my disciple, winning a war with a simple throw of the hand. Truly amazing."

Huo Yuhao sat on the sofa and swallowed a porridge made by Huo Yun'er, pouring the motherly breakfast slowly. He glanced at the kitchen and saw them confronting the Auspicious Monarch like she was a new kid in the block.

"Their reactions are more amazing than mine." Huo Yuhao wryly commented while hearing Evo's monotonous voice.

"Oh?" Huo Yuhao gazed at the system panel with disbelief as a wall of text rapidly appeared in front of him. He scanned through all of them and dropped his spoon on the floor.

"What the fuck..."

Huo Yuhao leaned on the sofa and began to laugh wildly like a madman. He covered his face while a sense of achievement bloomed in his heart after three years of hard work.

"Haa... Naga, I made it."
