Noah could only grit his teeth at that point, there was no way out of this one.
"What exactly is your goal in life?", the figure said, relieving Noah of it's aura.
Straightening his position, Noah stared at the black figure, that still had shimmering motes of lights, in it's body.
"I want to be strong", his voice rang out.
"That's not a definite goal. Everyone wants to get strong, but there has to be a reason for getting stronger, if not you'll fail, when you hit the slightest wall on that journey", the figure countered.
Noah furrowed his brows, and began pondering. 'I want to get stronger, but for what?', he said in his mind. It seemed the figure had managed to get him serious.
"What do I want the power for?. Proctect myself?. Definitely, but is that enough?. I currently have no family here, so I don't want it to proctect any loved ones--', Noah said inwardly. His mind, in turmoil as he kept on searching for the answer.
Then it dawned on him, 'I dont have a goal!!', he said inwardly. his thoughts reflecting on his face.
Shaking it's head the voice of the figure rang out, "Without a goal you cannot achieve higher realms, that is what the cultivation journey is", it said.
Noah only gazed at it, as different thoughts ran through his mind.
"It seems my time is up. Your presence is fading, the world doesn't consider my presence necessary". The figure eventually said.
Noah could only stare at it, when a pillar of darkness fell from the sky, enveloping the figure, while sending dark winds around, which caused the ground to crack badly. Though it's voice still rang out.
"Get a goal, get stronger, and entertain me. Fare well, see you in one year".
At that point the pillar spun rapidly, sending even more of its black winds everywhere. Noah's Instincts screamed at him to dodge them. He had to cast 'Energy barrier' multiple times, since only a small whiff of the black wind could shatter his defensive spells.
Eventually the pillar stopped spinning, and immediately shot back into the sky, relieving the environment of it's destructive power.
Immediately that happened, Noah heard a shattering sound. Then did he realize that, he hadn't been able to see or hear the outside world!.
Glancing at the damaged roof that was beginning to fall apart, Noah stared at his palms, he had alot of thinking to do.
"One year uh..." he muttered.
As spark's accumulated on his body, the eye sockets in the black helmet of Muliix, shone with orange radiance. Then he moved
A sonic boom resounded in the environment, as Noah broke the sound barrier..... or rather that was supposed to happen.
Coming to an abrupt stop, Noah glanced at his environment, his eyes wide open from surprise. You may be asking yourself, 'why his he surprised?'.
Well that would be none other than because he found that, the environment wasn't troubled by his movement!.
When Noah takes off in his usual acceleration, he goes all the way from 0 to Mach 10. Which means that for an instant, 'Sound' could still reach him, though after that he hears nothing.
But usually, the only sound he heard was kind of like a 'pop' sound, which was when he shattered the sound barrier, but this time he heard nothing, as though the sound barrier wasn't troubled by his stupendous speed.
'What the hell', He shouted in his mind.
Stomping his foot on the ground, Noah saw that is cracked, but there was something amiss. The effect of his stomp, felt weaker, though it actually wasn't.
With the urge to understand what was happening, Noah ran. Once again he heard nothing, Even the wind wasn't blowing past his face, the environment didn't notice his passage, the world didn't care about his actions!.
At this point, Noah was already outside of the city, all he had to do was run past the guards, he had the idea of running on walls but he wasn't sure he could do that.
The guards at the gate felt nothing, the wind wasn't reacting to him, so all that saw was a flash of light.
Zooming through the forest, many ideas ran through his mind, but eventually he concluded that the bracelet was the cause of the strange lack of reaction from the world.
The bracelet didn't just remove his presence, it made him almost like a ghost. He could still affect the physical environment, like his stomp had shown earlier, but some of the effects of his activities were either non-existent or reduced.
Different rules governed Cregar, so the things that were considered impossible on Earth had to be different.
Noah now understood, the reason why it was a unique grade bracelet, the effects of its ability was crazy. Alhough he didn't really understand how the grading of items worked.
The idea of becoming an assassin, crossed Noah's mind, if his targets, couldn't sense him, with his speed, they were as good as dead. Although he dropped it, there were other things he could do with the bracelets effect.
Like hunting, though it was similar to assassination, just that he was killing magical beasts, Instead of humans.
Suddenly, not having a solid goal seemed okay, after all he could climb the ranks of strength, without much disturbance from other stronger experts. But when he thought of the time limit, he couldn't help but heave a heavy sigh.
'How strong, should I get, tier four, tier five, can I even reach six', Noah questioned himself.
'The whole thing about goals, I'll just postpone it, who knows, maybe I'll find someone that would make me want to get stronger. Maybe a girlfriend', Noah thought, laughing at the last part.
He had been in a few relationships in his past life, but they mostly never ended well. He was either too busy, or the girl only wanted him for money, since at that time he was financially Independent, and stable.
Thinking about that topic, Noah recalled that he had never slept with a girl. 'I died a fu*king virgin', he thought laughing heavily at the truth.
He had wanted to wait until, he found the girl that he would spend the rest of his life with, but that didn't end well, it had been hard, but he had managed to abstain. Until he died!.
Coming to a stop, after he had gone an incredible distance away from the wall, Noah sat beside a tree.
Glancing at the bracelet, Noah wondered if it could camofladge itself, since he didn't want people asking him what it was for.
And to his pleasure, the bracelets sliver colour began to fade and change, until it took the colour of his skin, then it kind of merged with his skin. Though the process didn't hurt.
Nodding his head approvingly. Noah thought of multiple topics. Like what his mission was as the heir of the 'god of speed', there had to be a reason for it all, no one would do such a thing without an important reason, maybe there was, Someone or something he had to fight, he didn't understand. "Is tier six even the highest level of power?". he muttered.
"What level do I need to reach, to attain the level of a 'god', he continued. "Is there like a supreme god somewhere?",
"How many world's exist, can I travel to another world without dying?". This were the thoughts that filled his mind, but unfortunately he currently had no answers for them.
"I just have to get immensely strong", Noah concluded while standing up. He wasn't sure why, but he could feel some sort of excitement welling up in his being, there were many things he had to do, and find, and it excited him beyond reason.
"This is seriously going to be fun!".
