Reborn as God: The strongest system

Esdras and Celine sneaked out of town in the cover of the darkness and arrived at a secluded hill, hidden by thick trees and overgrown bushes.

Celine didn't know why they were coming here. Esdras told her it was important and so she followed.

Esdras used a small flame floating above his head to illuminate the way, it was an imitation of the spell [spark].

"What are we here for? It's too gloomy and cold," Celine looked around and rubbed her shoulders.

"Well, this is why I brought blankets," Esdras chuckled and opened his storage ring to take several blankets. He started laying some of them on the cold ground so they could be at easy when he heard Celine audibly gasping.

Eh?

"H-how did you do that? Taking it out of nowhere?" Celine pointed with her mouth in the shape of an O.

Oh, he didn't tell her about this before did he?

"It's one of the magic items I got from a dungeon, I will tell you all about it later." Esdras had no time explain now but he did tell her about the basic summery.

"Oh, like the amulet you gave me?" Celine looked at her chest, she was gesturing to her amulet.

"Yes, now sit and relax." Esdras pointed on the blankets.

"Okay."

"Alright, now then, we came here to advance to the True mage realm. You will go first." Esdras casually said.

"M-me, what?… Esdras you know that it isn't easy to breakthrough, it's even harder for us with dual elements. We need to get back to the tower to get mana stones. Actually miss Lydia gave me five mana stones for when that time comes, you can have some of them."

Esdras thought about it, and it made perfect sense. Those who deal with the more elements need more money to transform not one but two elemental sigils.

That was twice the amount of mana needed technically, but that was not actually true, the amount of mana was more than double.

After all filling up the sigils was not enough it needs to cause a transformation.

"Oh? It's mana stones we need? Cool, here," Esdras directly, took out ten mana stones and gave them to her on on the spot.

Celine had a dumb look on her face, and then it changed to her normal expression. Seeing her like that he feels like she wasn't going to show him anymore funny expressions of shock.

This disappointed him a little.

Celine was already on the verge of a breakthrough for sometime now the only thing stopping her was the lack of mana stones and since that problem was already solved it was now time to just do it.

Esdras placed the mana stones around her in a circle, and she took a moment to clear her thoughts and enter meditation.

Are after a few moments, the stones started to glow responding to her meditation, and great amounts of energy started flowing from the stones to her.

Esdras was using two of the Spy eyes to keep a careful watch over the surroundings. After all he knew his normal senses won't work against someone like Ilundar.

Suddenly there was a slight reverberation coming from Celine's direction, she was sweating and then started levitating.

Was this supposed to happen?

The energy converged and exploded slightly, Celine went back down into the lotus position and mana sprang forth from within her like a tidal wave.

Several minutes later the light dimmed and she opened her eyes which dispelled the energy and Esdras's eyes widened.

He did hear that one could become better looking after advancing, the further one went on the path of magic more their bodies will become perfect.

Of course what most people really cared about. Was the increase lifespan at the Great mage level and beyond.

But of course, who wouldn't want to look better? That was still one of the attractions of mages. 𝑓𝓇𝑒𝑒𝚠e𝘣𝓷𝘰ѵe𝑙.com

Celine was already a great beauty in his opinion, but now she looked even better, her face and her skin, her bodies proportions, and figure even improved.

When she stood up, he realized that she became taller as well.

"I did it, Esdras!" She cheered. I want to him for a hug.

Esdras opened his hands wide, and hugged her, smiling from ear to ear. He was really happy for her.

" amazing, well done." Esdras praised wholeheartedly. This is when an idea came to him, what if she became stronger than the queen of dusk before he was taken completely?

Would the queen still be able to hold onto her true soul fragment? It was worth a try at least.

"How do I look?" Celine suddenly struck a pose with her hand on her hips and her body arching to the back slightly. 𝒇𝑟𝐞𝐞w𝐞𝑏𝙣𝑜vℯl.co𝑚

However, Esdras had a mischievous look flashing in his eyes, " what do you mean? How do you look? You look the same as usual."

"What?" Celine asked in shock. And started touching her face and body worriedly. "D-do I really look at the same? What I heard—"

"Okay now, you can't believe everything you hear." Esdras clicked his tongue. But his lips curled up which gave him way.

"Y-you! That was a mean prank." Celine protested while frowning. "I won't do it tonight!" She declared looking upset.

Esdras knew he fucked up, he hurriedly wrapped his hands around her and smiled, "I didn't mean that, I was just shocked silly by your beauty."

"That won't work on me!" Celine looked away.

Esdras pulled her face back, "come on, I was smitten, you know that. I actually wanted to take you right now, right here but held back."

"Really?" Celine finally looked at him seeming flattered.

"Of course, here let me apologize to you," saying this he leaned in and Celine cutely closed her eyes, their lips met.

The kiss was pure at first but it soon turned naughty, with tongues intwined and saliva exchanged.

Esdras pulled away and said, "let me apologize to you some more later okay? Now, it's my turn."
