Chapter 378 Calamity
"Ahhh another opportunity to inflate her ego" Seth grumbled within as he could only stay mum in the face of Rias's question.
Anyways it was better to stay silent than to open his mouth and speak nonsense.
Seeing set silent, Rias smirked.
"Not surprising, you're from a lower world, such complex matters are above you."
Speaking these words, Rias hoped to get a reaction out of Seth but no satisfying reaction came to his face as his eyes only stayed on the object she had sent hovering before him.
"If you're done trying to soothe your poor ego with deluded thoughts that you're better than me, then start talking about the types of qi, I have important things to do."
Just like Seth, Rias showed no reaction to Seth's words, but one didn't have to see an expression on her face to know she was peeved at Seth's blatant dissing of her.
With Rias being the one who wanted something from Seth, she couldn't refuse to speak, but that was only for now, she expected that after her next sentences, she and Seth would either be on level terms or she would have the upper hand.
Crossing her leg over the other, Rias peered into Seth's eyes and spoke.
"Mortal and Immortal qi.
The qi you have in your world and that which currently circulates through you is mortal qi, it is found in most lower worlds.
Thigh there are few worlds not in the immortal realm that contain immortal qi, immortal qi is most prominently found in worlds in the immortal worlds.
After the mortal levels of mortal cultivation, you have the calamity levels and immortal levels.
The calamity level and immortal levels are the cultivation levels of the immortal realm, and for a perfect transition into the calamity level, one needs to cultivate with immortal qi."
"Do you understand me?"
"Yes, and how many levels are there in calamity," Seth asked, this was the first time he was hearing the name of his cultivation level and his curiosity was burning.
With such a question, there was no way Rias was going to miss the opportunity to look down on Seth, and not hiding her disdain at his ignorance Rias spoke.
"There are 7 levels of calamity, and unlike with your mortal stages, there are no gaseous, liquids or solid stages, all that there is to advancing through calamity levels is comprehension."
"Hmm, would you like to know what level you are at?" Rias asked, throwing Seth a lazy glance like she was about to do him a favour.
"Sure," Seth said without hesitation.
"Level 2 calamity cultivator."
Hearing Rias's words, Seth went thinking about Minuha's words on when one truly ascended from being a mortal and comparing it with Rias's recent words, it would seem that one needed to truly first comprehend the first stage of a law before they could ascend from the mortal level.
"What calamity level are you at," Seth asked.
"That's too complicated for you, I've answered enough of your question, it's time for you to begin speaking."
"You haven't told me what this thing in front of me is."
"It's an immortal qi stone" Rias snarled.
"Oh, "Seth said reaching out and grabbing the stone, his soul sense passing over it.
"So what should I tell you," Seth asked while looking at the stone in his hand.
"How you increased your cultivation so fast, what treasure did you encounter, and most importantly how did you become a vampire."
"And why should I tell you?"
That Rias knew he was a vampire didn't surprise Seth as she had watched both he and Aimy feeding, and so if he combined that with the knowledge that she was from the immortal realm, then it was only normal she easily figured out he was a vampire as even Minuha who had been stuck in Egaroth all her life could deduce his nature."
Rias gritted her teeth at Seth's question as at this point she knew that there was no way Seth was so dumb that he couldn't connect the dots, she knew that he a just messing with her.
"If you tell me what I want to knee, I'll give you tons of these qi stones. You're returning to your world, where there is only mortal qi, without these stones, you won't be able to cultivate and would only stagnate."
"So just qi stones, that's all you're offering me for a method to help you quickly become powerful, become a powerhouse.
You're being stingy Rias."
Seth's words had Rias stay silent for a while and then she waved her hand, a hill of qi stone appearing beside Seth, one which he had to raise his head to be able to see the top, and Seth had to say he was impressed but that wasn't enough.
"In addition to that, I'll come to take you to an immortal world 40 years from now, and you can be sure I'll abide by my words," Rias said, a by-now common white piece of paper appearing in her hand.
"For 40 years, that's long, and these qi stones are too small, add two more heaps."
With these words, Seth kept quiet and relaxed on his throne.
Seeing that Seth wouldn't bulge, Rias waved her hand once more, this time three more heaps appearing beside Seth, and then she looked at the surprised Seth with a smirk.
Surrounded on all sides with heaps of immortal qi stones, it was inevitable that Seth soon began absorbing the leaking qi and he couldn't help but shiver.
The few bits of qi that entered Seth's made him feel like a man who hadn't eaten in 7 days and had just been presented with an appetizing meal, wanting him to just abandon everything and begin cultivating.
With narrowed eyes, Seth waved his hands and all the stone around him disappeared.
Warily, he watched Rias's reaction, feeling confused when he noticed her attention was focused on the space ring he had just stuffed all the qi stones into.
"Impressive that you have a space ring from the immortal realm."
"Ahhh thanks, but now I have the qi stones with me, is there still any reason for me to bother with you."
