Primordial Soul's Rebirth

As the changes were happening outside of the gate, the same was happening inside the gate.

The explosion that happened inside the gate was so big that the structure of the whole gate had changed.

The tree, rocks, or the large volcano, none of them could be seen anywhere, much less the monsters. The only thing that could be seen was a vast expanse of plain land, with nothing over it.

If one were to try looking around, then they could look at anyone, no matter how far apart they are standing, after all, there was nothing stopping their line of sight.

But the point was that no one was looking at that as right now they were too happy to even think about something.

If raiders outside the gate, who didn't even experience the shockwave of mana from close could experience so many changes and get their ranks up, then what about those who were at the epicenter of the shockwave?

Well, those guys were just too shocked to even speak, that's what the guys in the epicenter of the shockwave were doing.

When the beasts exploded into a mass of mana, Alex had already shielded them all with windshields, but that didn't stop mana from entering, it just stopped the shockwave.

So, when the mana hit them, the raiders felt their bodies being revitalized, they felt like their bodies were being massaged by expert hands.

It lasted quite long as well, but when it ended and they finally came out of that euphoric state, they started realizing what had happened.

When they felt the power in their body, they all exchanged dumbfounded gazes, even Frank, Alice, Ann, and Noctura were dumbfounded.

Everyone then turned towards Alex, only to find him standing there, looking at them with a smile.

'So, it's finally the right time you said huh…?' Alex spoke inwardly with a smile.

[Yes, now you can break through this world's limit, and you won't face any restrictions.]

Alex just smiled as he heard her words.

He could also feel the restriction that was there in the atmosphere, stopping him from breaking through to the next rank dissipating slowly.

Alex had already reached EX-rank a month after activating his bloodline, but he stopped his progress, or it would be better to say that he stored his progress and saved it for later use.

Sophia had told him that if he breaks through to the next rank, then he will have to face some restrictions.

Now those restrictions can't stop Alex, not at all, but those restrictions will still be there every time, and that's something Alex found annoying.

So, Sophia advised him to wait for a while and not forcefully break the limit.

'How long is this 'while' by the way?' This was what Alex had asked.

[Well, I can't tell you, but I'm sure you'll know when the time is right.]

Alex smiled as he remembered those words.

From the information he got from the system, he knew some things about worlds.

One of those was that every world had a limit, and if someone with power above that limit arrives in that world then their powers are suppressed, but still, that only works if the power difference is small.

If the intruder had the power to destroy the world itself, then what restriction would even work on them?

Alex then looked towards the raiders who had their faces beaming with happiness as they got a huge power up.

He could see that the A-rank raiders were already S-rank peak, while Frank was now SS-rank. Alice had already entered SSS-rank with her power around mid SSS-rank.

But the one who surprised Alex most or better way to say it would be the one who had the most improvement was Ann.

She had entered SSS-rank from the peak S-rank, and although it was just the lowest SSS-ranking stats, she was still SSS-rank.

One had to know that a single S-ranker can handle 10 to 20 A-rankers, a single SS-ranker could defeat 10 to 20 S-rankers with ease, and an SSS-ranker can take care of 20 to 30 SS-rankers, not including special cases.

So even if Ann had just entered SSS-rank, she was still strong enough to take care of around 20 SS-rank raiders, which might not even be the total number of SS-rankers in the world right now.

Even after the upgrade, the highest number of raiders who could've entered the SS rank was probably 10, and they were the top 10 raiders in the world.

"I feel strong…." Maggie unknowingly voiced out her thoughts as she looked at her clenched fist.

But then she found everyone looking at her and she realized her mistake.

She lowered her head in embarrassment.

"Yes, all of us had grown stronger, much stronger than what we were before entering the gate," Alice spoke with a smile making everyone turn to her.

Maggie just secretly thanked Alice for saving her from embarrassment, but she listened to what Alice was saying seriously.

"We came in with the mission of scouting the gate, but we weren't satisfied with just being someone's scouting dogs so we decided to raid the gate," Alice spoke as she balled her fist.

"Now we have cleared the gate alone, without anyone's help and we have grown stronger, much stronger than any other guild could even hope for," Alice continued as she could see the raiders' eyes burning with fire.

"We are the first guild to ever clear an S-rank gate alone!

And if that's not enough then we cleared a Special S-ranked gate!

How's that? Is there any guild out there that can do the same???"

Alice raised her voice.

""NO!!""

The raiders' replied in unison without even a second delay.

"Is there any guild that has 24 S-rank raiders out there?!" Alice shouted, but before the raiders could reply Alex spoke.

"25."

"Huh?" everyone turned towards Alex with a confused look.

"I said 25 S-rank raiders," Alex spoke as he moved his hand placing it on top of Noctura's head, finally making her visible to everyone.

Noctura had also received a power-up as she was just a B-ranker but now she is a low S-ranker.

Although it was a good boost and it looked like two ranks up's just like, the difference between her two ranks and Ann's two ranks was not something to be compared.

But Noctura still had a huge increase in her strength and with the power she had right now, she might be able to kill an SS-ranker if and only if she were to attack first.

Alice just smiled as she looked at Noctura.

How could she forget to count her cute little friend?

"Is there any guild that has 25 S-rank raiders out there?!" Alice asked again.

""NO!"" The raiders replied with happy smiles on their faces.

The serious mood was already destroyed, now the mood had turned cheerful, but they didn't blame Alex for that as it was better.

"Then is there still any guild who can claim to be Rank 1, if not us?!"

Alice exclaimed.

""NO!!""

The raiders shouted.

"Then let us go and tell the world that we the Crimson Lotus are the one and only guild in this world who could be called rank 1!"

Alice commanded as Alex slowly landed them on the ground.

"YEAH!"

The raiders shouted in unison.

Alex also just smiled as he thought, 'It's finally time to reveal some of my powers to the world huh'.
