"Are you sure you\'ve understood it?" Alexander asked.

"I understand the fundamentals of sublimation. It\'s enough for now since I\'ve got to return." Souta said as he stood up and stretched his arms.

"So you\'re going to leave this place, now?" Alexander asked as he strode toward the small house.

"Yes, it\'s been three weeks. There\'s still some business that I need to attend to." Souta answered. He had grown stronger while he was here so he thought that it was time to leave.

Alexander entered the house. He came out after a few minutes, carrying a small brown bag. He threw the bag in Souta\'s direction. "Here, it\'s my gift for helping me."

Souta caught the bag and curiously look at the things inside it. Shock filled his face when he saw the things lying inside the bag. He looked back at Alexander and said, "Isn\'t this too much?"

"It\'s fine. You deserved it." Alexander waved his hand. He turned around and pointed at the magic circle on the ground. "If you wish to leave, just activate that spell."

"Got it." Souta nodded. He was a little bit excited as he didn\'t think that Alexander would be this generous. He placed his hand inside the bag and took out a dark apple-shaped fruit. The fruit has the size of his palm and it has flower drawings around it.

This was a legendary grade called Shadow Mixing Fruit. It was quite beneficial to him. It seems that Alexander picked this fruit while thinking about his elemental affinity.

Souta smiled. He didn\'t hesitate and gobbled up the fruit in the next second. Soon, he felt power coursing through his body. His dark element rose sharply, filling up his entire body as he silently activated the [Divine Dark Circulation]. He didn\'t waste any of the benefits of the fruit that it could give him. He maximized it with the help of this technique.

It was outside his expectations. He didn\'t think that the [Divine Dark Circulation] would be able to help him this much. Previously, when he ate the other fruits he could only get roughly sixty percent of its power. But now, the [Divine Dark Circulation] helped him achieve eighty percent which was higher than what he thought. Maybe, it also helped that the Shadow Mixing Fruit was a dark type, compatible with his technique.

Souta\'s dark element grew stronger and stronger. Even his resistance had reached a higher level. Even if he fought another dark element user, he had certain resistance to it so he would be able to fight other creatures of the same element.

He looked at the system and saw that his exp bar was eighty percent filled. He was level 66 right now and was close to reaching level 67.

It took him four hours before he fully used the energy of the Shadow Mixing Fruit.

Souta opened his eyes and breathe out a black gas. His pores had opened up, releasing the same black gas. When he clenched his fist, the black gas disappeared.

"I\'ve grown stronger once again."

He smiled and checked the bag once again. He took out another fruit. This time, the fruit only had the size of his thumb and it had a pure snow-white color.

Really... Alexander really chose the perfect fruit for him to consume. Fruit with other elements was basically useless to him since he didn\'t have those elements. The fruit could multiply his elemental power but since he didn\'t have those elemental affinities what\'s there to multiply?

Fruit that could let him gain another affinity? Those things were rare even for a legendary grade.

The other legendary grade could raise his resistance to other elements. Some of it could boost his physical strength, speed, and sometimes increased energy capacity. There were even legendary grades that could give him weird abilities. But Souta still preferred the fruit that could raise his dark and light elemental power.

Souta place the white fruit back inside the bag. He would consume it once he gained the [Divine Light Circulation] to maximize the benefits that he would receive.

"Legendary grades are so good. This one raises my dark element higher than before. The last one I consumed helped me boost my light element to Force. I even had resistance to space and time thanks to the legendary grades that I gained from the living labyrinth."

The resistance he had didn\'t show much since the space and time elements were rare. Although he didn\'t have any affinity with these two elements, using his elemental power to change form he could alter these two albeit weaker. So despite having a talent, he couldn\'t use it to reach the level of [Element Drive]. Only affinity could achieve it.

Souta looked at the other things inside the bag. Alexander was really generous as there were two dark grade artifacts inside. It was worth it to befriend this guy.

He wondered if he helped Alexander in the future what items would he get.

Aside from the two dark grade artifacts, there were two books. One was for sublimation and the other one was for forbidden spells. It was incredible that he couldn\'t help but raise the corner of his lips.

\'Saya, what do you think?\' He asked.

\'About what?\' Saya asked in return.

\'It\'s possible, right? I\'ve even practiced it and achieved a considerable success.\' Souta said.

\'I can\'t believe it... Just be careful and think about the ends of it. If not, you will be stuck once again. I guess for now, there\'s no problem... It\'s just that you can hardly...\' Saya didn\'t finish her sentence but Souta know what she wanted to say.

\'Yeah, that\'s why I\'ll refrain from it... For now...\' Souta said to her in a serious tone to assure her. There was nothing he could do. From his understanding, this was the better result that he could produce for now.

There\'s still a long way to go.

Souta shook his head and walked toward the magic circle. He looked at the small house and said, "Alexander! I\'ll go now! If you want, you can come with me for a while! I\'ll treat you to a brothel! Eat all you can!"

"Shut up!! Just leave this place!!" Alexander\'s voice resounded.

Souta smiled wryly and shook his head. Two of them grew closer in the past fifteen days and Alexander even help him train his combat prowess.

"Fifteen days alone without seeing a woman... Sigh... I will visit a brothel."

Souta stepped inside the magic circle and used his energy to activate it. He grabbed his face first and changed his appearance.

A light engulfed him and his body disappeared without a trace.

Ohm!

Souta reappeared at the entrance, the tunnel between the Imperium and Multiple Elements Realm. The bridge where the creator of the realm folded the space and connected it to the main world.

He stretched his arms and yawned. Suddenly, he stopped and noticed almost fifty people in the air with murderous gazes.

Souta ignored them and walked away. But before he could walk far a series of energy spheres were hurled before him. He stopped walking and the energy spheres crashed in front of him causing several small explosions. Despite the small explosions, the power it possessed was strong.

He turned his head and looked coldly at the people in the air. "What is the meaning of this? I didn\'t know any of you, right? So why are you bothering me?"

A middle-aged man stepped forward and said, "You came from the ancient ruins, right? Tell me, everything that happened inside or else..."

"Or else what? You will kill me?" Souta laughed at the middle-aged man\'s words. He didn\'t expect that he would meet a clown as soon as he came out of the Multiple Elements Realm.

"Dude, stop with your joke! Go away while I\'m in the good mood! I still need to visit a brothel!" Souta waved his hand and shooed them away.

He then continued to walk. He didn\'t want to bother himself with these people. It was pointless. Plus, he was in a good mood since Alexander gave him a lot of stuff that he could use.

"Go." The middle-aged man said in a cold tone.

The next moment, dozens of energy beams including elemental attacks were hurled at Souta. The fluctuations of energy rose as the beams exploded causing the ground to shake heavily as if a powerful earthquake hit the area.

"Capture him and heal him. We\'ll interrogate him later." The middle-aged man said. He glanced at the smoke and turned around.

The smoke slowly dissipated and everyone saw that Souta was still standing without a single scratch on his body.

"Hey, can you stop this kind of shit while I\'m still kind?" Souta said in a plain tone.

The middle-aged man was shocked. He opened his eyes widely as he didn\'t think that this guy could escape that barrage of attacks unscathed.

"It seems that I need to do this myself." He said to himself as his mana flared up. He charged forward as he quickly zoomed the distance between him and Souta.
