Reincarnated as a World

Ch.93 The Essence of Envy

The Despicable Brother gave himself a cursory glance as he admired his new form. 

Turquoise coloured Feathers that looked like they were carved from ice but alight with viridescent flames, a height of 60 metres and a wingspan of 190 metres, emerald coloured beak and feet with 5 black ominous looking talons, neon green eyes and a crown of flames that looked like it would continue burning even if the World reached the end of its lifespan.

He was absolutely majestic. However, he didn’t have the time to keep ogling himself because he was facing imminent danger.

The Essence of Envy had pushed his cultivation all the way to the brink of the Seeking Beast Realm and he hadn’t even finished digesting a 20th of it. And on top of that, thanks to the torture he had gone through… He was in the eye-boggling 11th Stage of Anatomy Refinement! But, as amazing as all of this was, he was aware of the fact that the Essence of Envy would very soon push his cultivation to the 4th Realm and a Tribulation would come looking for life. Although he was certain he could pass it, he knew that he would soon have company and none of them would play nice. And even if he could defeat all of them, he couldn’t do it if the Tribulation Lights crashed down on his head at the same time.

Yes, he knew all about the Tribulations.

Disregarding the fact that he had been confined in this pitiful cavern before he could even lay his eyes on a single Tribulation, the memories that he gained from those that had been enthralled by his Sin of Envy Awakening… were more than enough knowledge.

The Despicable Brother inwardly grinned as his emotions of ellation bubbled.

“I’m back! And not only that, but I have been chosen by the Sin of Envy itself! Haha! I knew I was destined for greatness! Destined for glory! Oooh the glooory~” The Despicable Brother burst out laughing before launching himself at the hole that the Sin of Envy made in its path to reach him.

…

At this very moment, Chad was racing towards the Despicable Brother’s location with 2 other legendary birds by his side and a flock of them behind. Within this flock were a group of Pure Phoenixes, Ice Phoenixes and Purgatory birds. And by his side was the 9 Flame Queen herself along with a peculiar Ice Phoenix.

They had all united together in hopes that it would be enough to face off against the source of the strange green Energy. But secretly, none of them believed it. Not even him.

He still remembered how frightened he was when the entire sky was filled with nothing but green. Green energy just seemed to be rising from everyone, even him. But most of it seemed to come from huge fogs of green essence that had suddenly appeared around occupied territories. It was as if they were an invisible miasma that had suddenly been revealed, scaring all the residents who were able enough to see it.

But as terrifying as it was, it didn’t stay long and flew off into the air without causing any casualties, so some people thought that that would be the end of it and they proceeded to return to their daily activities. Even if they were still filled with remnant fear and caution, they couldn’t feed themselves and their families if they started slacking. They decided to placate themselves by thinking that no matter what the phenomenon was, it was probably going for someone or something else and not them.

And they were right.

The terrifying bird scream that echoed throughout the World was absolutely terrifying and somehow they knew that it was related to that Green Energy.

Chad and the rest of the hegemon’s of the West Continent felt absolute dread when they realised that the source of all this trouble was in their very own Continent, especially Chad when he felt familiarity in the screamers voice. But since it was coming from their own Continent, they had to deal with it or potentially wait for death.

So here they were. Looking at the most beautiful Phoenix they had ever met.

Green and turquoise icy feathers, green flames and luminous eyes, a height of 60 metres that seemed to be slowly growing and a wingspan of 190. The unknown Phoenix was absolutely spectacular.

And absolutely terrifying.

By Chad’s side, the 9 Flame Queen was currently stunned. She could feel that the daunting aura that was billowing out of the strange Phoenix was similar to hers in nature! Although it mostly felt like something else, she was very familiar with the half Monster/half Beast hybrid energy that she and her descendants had, and it was oozing off of this Phoenix like crazy!

What was the meaning of this?!

“Oh, Chad! Come to join me have you? Lady Nine too! I feel sooo very honoured~” the Phoenix spoke in a sing-song voice, splashing shock into the hearts of all the listeners.

They knew this voice!

The Phoenix, who they were very sure by now was the Despicable Brother, paused when it looked at the Ice Phoenix that was huddled by Chad’s side.

“Who’s this, hmm? Sniff. Oh? Oh dear, Chad. You… could you have been ploughing my daughter? The one I had with your mate? Hahaha, what a dirty degenerate~”

Although Chad couldn’t fully understand all of the silvery words that were being said to him, he still got the gist of it and he was sure that the Despicable Brother was mocking him.

“YOU!-”

“Ah calm down, calm down~ My apologies. But I’m currently quite busy and I must leave as soon as possible. Ah, but worry not. We will most certainly have a proper reunion at a later date. Tata now!” the Despicable said before flapping his wings and turned into a streak of green light that flashed towards the horizon with astonishing speed.

…Everyone was speechless. They couldn’t comprehend what had just happened, and they were worrying about the possible future. The 9 Flame Queen was especially wary, afterall…

The Despicable Brother had just gone off in the direction of the South Continent.

“WAAAAAIT!” Chad screamed as he shot off in the same direction, but the 9 Flame Queen shook her head. The difference in speed was almost overwhelming and there was no way he could catch up.

“Haah…~” the 9 Flame Queen sighed before rounding up the Purgatory Vermillion Birds and returning back to where they came from.
