“You dare!” John growled, glaring coldly at Elsa.
The women close to him were his greatest weakness, and he would never allow anyone to harm them.
Elsa remained calm, holding the Divine Path technique manual in her hand. She waved it lightly and once again offered it to him. “Care to give it a try?” she asked.
“Fine, you win,” John exhaled deeply, reluctantly accepting the manual. He had no choice but to comply for now.
Looking at the introduction to the Divine Path technique, John didn’t rush to begin. Instead, he asked curiously, “If I cultivate this technique and you control me, how can I break free from it?”
“Oh? You’re thinking of escaping my control?” Elsa’s expression turned playful as she stared at him.
John replied calmly, “It’s nice to have hope. Otherwise, I might as well be dead.”
He had his doubts about the method Tony and Ben had told him for breaking the Divine Path control.
He could learn the technique, but only if there was a way to break Elsa’s hold over him.
“I’ll tell you, though it won’t make a difference. You’ll never escape my control,” Elsa said, eyeing him without the slightest hint of concern. “Breaking the Divine Path control is simple –just kill me. But do you think you’re capable of that?”
John frowned. That wasn’t realistic at all. He wasn’t even close to Elsa’s level of strength, and once under her control, defeating her would become even more impossible.
“Is there any other way?” he pressed further.
“There is,” Elsa nodded. “It’s much simpler. All you have to do is surpass my Divine Path level and Divinity value.”
As expected, her explanation was different from what Tony and Ben had told him. Divinity alone wasn’t enough. To break free from the Divine Path control, the technique’s level also had to surpass that of the controller.
John asked, “What level is your Divine Path, and how much is your Divinity?”
Elsa glanced at him, her face full of disdain. “Level 1011, Divinity 1081 points.”
“That high?” John was shocked. He had killed countless angels and Plundered their Divinity, yet he had only accumulated 337 points.
Growing impatient, Elsa coldly threatened, “I’ve told you everything you need to know. Now, start cultivating the Divine Path immediately, or I’ll kill Star Dust.”
John frowned. Over the past few days, he had killed numerous magical beasts and angels, amassing over 120,000 skill points and skill stones. Based on the skill point requirements for upgrading a high-tier technique, he could easily raise the Divine Path to surpass Elsa’s level of 1011.
But the Divinity value couldn’t be Plundered so easily.
Right now, hunting more angels wasn’t an option for him.
Still, Elsa was threatening Tracy, and John had no choice but to comply.
“Let’s hope you keep your word,” he sighed, decisively taking the manual and beginning to learn the technique.
Elsa smiled in satisfaction. “Don’t worry. From now on, you’re mine. I won’t let anything happen to you.”
[You have learned the Divine Path technique. Current level: 1. Divinity +1. Upgrade requires 10 skill points.]
A notification appeared before John, but he wasn’t paying attention to Elsa’s words.
He was elated.
The Divine Path technique could increase Divinity!
John glanced at the smug Elsa, thinking to himself that soon enough, she would pay the price for her arrogance.
He had more than enough skill points to raise the Divine Path technique beyond level 1011, surpassing Elsa, and his Divinity value would also exceed hers.
At that moment, Elsa handed him 100 skill stones and said, “Hurry up and level the technique to 10. I don’t usually part with these so easily. Don’t make me regret my generosity.”
Skill stones are valuable?
John was speechless. To him, these few skill stones were nothing special.
He could easily kill a few bosses and Plunder 100 skill points, plus get skill stones from their drops.
Still, he didn’t refuse. He absorbed the skill stones immediately and began upgrading the Divine Path technique.
[You’ve consumed 10 skill points. Divine Path technique raised to level 2. Divinity +1.]
…
[You’ve consumed 10 skill points. Divine Path technique raised to level 10. Divinity +1.]
John stopped at level 10, not raising it further. He wanted to see what Elsa planned to do now that she had control over him.
From his research, he knew that the Divine Path could control his body, but it couldn’t control his soul or consciousness.
This meant that although John couldn’t move his body, he could still use his mind to spend skill points and continue upgrading the technique.
In other words, he could break free from Elsa’s control whenever he wanted.
“Good boy,” Elsa said with a satisfied smile. The hostility in her eyes faded as she gazed at John, slowly undoing her clothes. Her pure white gown slipped off her shoulders, revealing smooth, pale skin and a voluptuous figure.
John was stunned, involuntarily swallowing hard. It took him a moment to process what was happening, and he blurted out in disbelief, “You’re controlling me… for this?”
He couldn’t help but wonder-was his charm really that powerful? Powerful enough to make an angel willingly offer herself?
“From now on, you’re my plaything, my slave. You’ll serve me completely!” Elsa’s voice was soft, but her eyes blazed with intensity as she used the Divine Path to control John, slowly stripping him of his equipment.
Gulp! Elsa swallowed nervously, her body trembling slightly as her eyes were drawn to the impressive sight between his legs.
John couldn’t control his body, but natural reactions like this were beyond his influence.
Whoosh!
A ripple of Spatial Power brought John directly in front of Elsa, her three pairs of large, white wings wrapping around them both.
Looking at the beautiful woman just inches away, John found himself unsure whether to resist
or not.
Soft, sweet lips pressed against his, and Elsa kissed him passionately, her breath quickening. The air of divinity and nobility she once exuded was gone, replaced by unrestrained desire. John was speechless. Though his body was under Elsa’s control, he was still able to speak. “Isn’t this a bit strange for you?” he asked. “It’s like you’re… making love to yourself.” Elsa broke the kiss, glaring coldly at him. “I’m interested in your body. Your mind is irrelevant. Defy me again, and I’ll turn you into a mindless puppet!”
As Elsa kissed him again, her delicate hand wrapped around John’s hardened length. She hesitated several times but ultimately didn’t dare to let him enter.
John’s desire burned intensely, but with no control over his body, he couldn’t release the
tension building inside him.
Taking a deep breath, he focused his mind and continued to spend skill points to level up the
Divine Path technique.
[You’ve consumed 10 skill points. Divine Path technique raised to level 20. Divinity +1.]
[You’ve consumed 100 skill points. Divine Path technique raised to level 101. Divinity +1.]
[You’ve consumed 1,000 skill points. Divine Path technique raised to level 1,000. Divinity +1.]
[New skill unlocked: Divine Path Control.]
[Divine Path Control: A technique skill that allows you to control anyone cultivating the Divine Path, provided their level and Divinity are lower than yours.]
…
As the notifications flashed, John raised the Divine Path to level 1,000 and unlocked a skill-
Divine Path Control.
Now, he fully understood how Elsa had been able to control him.
At that moment, John could clearly sense Elsa’s Divine Path level and Divinity value.
She hadn’t lied: her Divine Path was at level 1021, and her Divinity was at 1081 points. But now, John’s Divinity had soared to 1337 points, far surpassing hers.
Elsa could no longer control him so easily, though she was too lost in her emotions to realize
it. Her breathing was rapid, her wings wrapped tightly around John, and her long, smooth legs straddled him. She tried multiple times to take him inside her but kept pulling back out of fear
of the pain.
John had a feeling that once his Divine Path surpassed level 1011, he’d be able to turn the
tables and control her instead.
Suppressing his desires and the temptation to reclaim control of his body, John focused again
and continued leveling up.
—
[You’ve consumed 1,000 skill points. Divine Path technique raised to level 1031. Divinity +1.]
The notifications kept coming, and John used up all his skill points, raising his Divine Path to
level 1031, surpassing Elsa.
His Divinity had now reached 1368 points, leaving her far behind.
“Why is it so big?” Elsa panted, her eyes brimming with tears. She desperately wanted to take John inside her, but every time she tried, the pain made her stop.
“I’ll help you with that,” John’s voice suddenly rang out, filled with amusement. He regained control and, with strong hands, gripped her slender waist, pulling her down hard. “Ah!” Elsa cried out in pain, tears streaming down her cheeks as her body trembled. A deep red stain appeared on the sheets beneath her.
“You bastard!” Elsa winced in pain, her brow furrowed as she cursed angrily, her voice cold.
“Human, you’re just my plaything. If you dare be so reckless again, I’ll turn you into a mindless puppet!”
“Is that so?” John’s gaze turned just as cold. With a sharp thrust, he drove himself even
deeper. “Ugh!” Elsa moaned in pain, her body quivering as the strange sensation almost overwhelmed her.
The agony kept her grounded, though. Determined to teach John a lesson, she activated the
Divine Path technique, intending to regain control over him.
But in the next moment, her expression changed drastically. She stared at John in shock. “W-
what’s happening? How is your Divine Path level and Divinity value so high? Are you… a descendant of the gods?”
“Descendant of the gods?” John raised an eyebrow, uninterested in her question. He
tightened his grip on her, his voice cold. “Now, you have two choices: sign a soul
contract with me and become my plaything, or die.”
“Hmph, I’d rather die!” Elsa’s eyes, once filled with desire, turned back to their usual cold and
divine demeanor.
A surge of immense light power gathered around her as she lifted her hand to strike at John.
But the next second, she froze in place, the gathered light power dissolving instantly. Her eyes widened in terror as she glared at John. “Human, release me!” she shouted, her voice
trembling with fear.
Now under the control of John’s Divine Path, Elsa could feel everything happening around her but was powerless to move her body. Panic gripped her heart.
John gently lifted her chin, exposing her slender, pale neck.
“Don’t worry,” he said calmly, “I’ll grant your wish.”
Elsa’s panic grew, and she quickly begged, “Godslayer, let me go! I’ll lift the Divine Path from
you and Star Dust, and I’ll no longer be your enemy.”
John smirked with disdain. “Do you really think I need that?”
Elsa opened her mouth to say something more, but her words were cut off as John captured
her lips.
Her lips parted in shock, and John’s tongue slid into her mouth, intertwining with hers as he deepened the kiss.
