Under the stares of wonder, envy, and curiosity of everybody, Zatiel flies back to the place Sophia and Ezequiel were, before deactivating Overload, his spells, and his True Name. He sits down and started to meditate as he took a cube of food from his ring and devoured at an impressive speed.Sophia and Ezequiel sit beside him, guarding him with eyes full of love and admiration respectively.
Although despite looking a little tired, Zatiel seems perfectly fine, like if he was in his top condition even after the fight, but the truth was all the opposite, as he currently had less than five percent of his energy left.
Runic sets are able to give the user amazing abilities, but the more powerful they are, the greater is the burden they put on the body. A Rank 1 Magus at the Master level should be able to use a Peak-Rank 1 runic set, and even then, it would be only for a short time, but Overload was a High-Rank 2 runic set, so the amount of vitality and energy it needed was something no Rank 1 should be able to achieve, even if we are talking about races like t.i.tans and Dragons.
It was thanks to Natux, the double source of energy in his two hearts, his advantages as a Neo-Demon and the incredible boost to his vitality that his Law Bloodline gives him, that Zatiel was able to meet the requirement to activate Overload. And when he did, the amount of energy it remained on his body was so little, that he could only use his Rank Spell and Innate Spells, as any other would drain him in seconds.
Feiner also returns to his subordinates, instead of remaining in the sky with the other Rank 2.
The Rank 1 werewolves were healing from the damage that Sophia spell had made to their bodies, and in their faces, there was immense regret, as they understood that the person they offended can kill all of them with a movement of his sword, and by the att.i.tude he had displayed, it was obvious he would not let them go. Although all of this happened due to them following the order of the old man, they did not dare to reproach him, as that will spell ruin for the three.
The Rank 2 Werewolf was healing his injuries as he channeled the regenerative abilities of his race and his powerful physique, and as he felt the pain of his injuries the hate on his face was more and more clear, but there was also fear, as he knew that if the Magus had not interfered he would have die.
The condition of Fenier was much worse than Zatiel. Due to the fact his arm was destroyed, he would have to use a great amount of vitality and energy to regenerate it, but before that, he would need to expel the energy that surrounded his injuries and that stops them from healing. The worst part wasn"t the damage to his body, but the one on his consciousness, as it would affect his overall power and it would take a lot of time to heal since he didn"t have the pills for that. All of this would make his task in the caves and encounter with the members of Dynasty truly dangerous.
´Useless piece of s.h.i.+t, I will make sure you pay for putting me in this situation. Had you informed me that that b.a.s.t.a.r.d had a Runic Set, all would have been different,´ Feiner was looking at Nimir, and he was pulling all the blame of his defeat on him.
Nimir felt the stare and animosity of the old man, but ignores him as he has bigger problems. He had disregarded Heinz"s direct order, as he thought that even if there was some type of punishment, it would be nothing serious as he was a Rank 2 Elementium Magus, but now everything was different. He was smart enough to know that the abilities that Zatiel displayed made him incredibly valuable for any group, way more than him, of course, he would never openly admit those thoughts.
Exactly an hour after Zatiel sit down and he had devoured his third cube of food, someone walked in his direction. It was the Rank 3 Magus and he carried a friendly expression as he approached the trio.
Ezequiel and Sophia have been extremely vigilant as Zatiel had informed them about his condition, and they make sure that no one approaches them. But they understood that distance was nothing to a Rank 3 lifeform, so they remained still and let him get closer without interference.
Zatiel opens his eyes and looks at the man, before standing up, but even now he keeps one of his minds working in replenis.h.i.+ng his energy.
"If your energy has restored to a decent level, I hope we can discuss something," The man was speaking in a tone you would give to an equal, a great display of respect considering his ident.i.ty.
Zatiel look at him for a moment before nodding, as for the fact he was able to see his condition, the perception of a Rank 3 was greatly developed due to their need of seeing past the natural energies of the world and perceive their essence, so detecting his condition by just looking at him was something normal.
"I am Grigori and young friend must be Zatiel Daybreak, I have heard of your works as a runemaster, but seeing your skills today, I must say they were highly underrated. I will go straight to the point, I was hoping to obtain your runic set for one of my descendants, of course, I will pay handsomely."
When Gregori saw the Runic Set that Zatiel displayed, and the amazing increase in power it was able to provide, he was fascinated by it. Although it will be useless for him, he has lived a long life and had a great number of descendants, one of them had displayed an immense talent, and since it was his family it was worth expend a great number of resources.
"I won"t do that," Zatiel response was immediate as he turns down the Magus.
As soon as he heard those words, the expression of the Grigori become distant. He knows that Runic Sets are special and difficult to get, but he had shown respect to Zatiel and was willing to pay a great price for it yet he was rejected without thinking twice.
Everybody was focused on the conversation between the Magus and Zatiel, and when they heard about the request of Grigori, their faces filled whit envy at the chance of forming a relations.h.i.+p with someone so powerful. But when Zatiel reject him, most of them showed smiles, especially Nimir and Feiner
Zatiel saw those expressions, but he only sneered at them, before focusing once again in the Magus, that was about to leave.
"Hear me. Overload was a runic set I develope and it was meant to increase mostly physical attributes, the only reason I was able to display such an immense increase in power was that it was meant to compliment me and the special characteristics of my Path. If someone else were to have it inscribed it on his body, only activating it would be difficult as they would most likely pa.s.s out or be injured due to the depleting in vitality, and even if they manage to use it, displaying 25% of his power would be the best scenario."
When Gregori hears that statement, he remained silent and started to a.s.sess Zatiel"s words. Although him lying to avoid selling the rune was an option, after a couple of moments, he confirmed the truth, as he indeed felt a great increase in the vitality of the young man before the runic set was activated, and after, he was exhausted.
"Ahhh, thanks for explaining it to me and increasing my knowledge. A runic set with those characteristics is indeed not suitable," Although it seems like the business was a failure Grigori expression was again friendly as he talks to Zatiell.
Zatiel look at the man for a moment and after some calculations, he spoke, "If you want, I could create a specially made runic set for your descendant,"
"Are you able to do that?" Grigori was surprised. His knowledge about runic sets may not be much but he knows the difficulty of creating one, especially if it is made specifically for someone.
"As long the individual is in Rank 1, I have complete access to his path technique and I can realize a full a.s.sessment of his body and energy, I should be able to do it. But it will take a great amount of time, and it will be very expensive, even for someone like you," By this point, Zatiel runemaster abilities were so high that he could perform any Rank 1 runes, and in his memories, there were several runic sets that could work as an inspiration.
The only reason Zateil didn"t create a set for Sophia and Ezequiel, was that a rank 1 runic set would not be very helpful for the duo and that he spent almost all his wealth in Overload.

"Don"t worry about the price, the resources my family has saved will surprise you. When the expedition is over we will come to visit you, and we will provide you with everything you need."
Grigori smile at Zatiel, when suddenly he looked at the distance, before speaking again.
"The ones we were waiting have arrived. Are you in conditions to leave or you need more rest?"
Zatiel closes his eyes and after a.s.sessing his condition he noded.
"Let"s go."
