Vengeance of the Returner

Chapter 224: New portal

Because of the culmination of wars, the Chaos mainland had lost its place. The imbalance has given birth to the coexistence of both Regulars and Outlaws. Although there are cities owned by Outlaws and Regulars and divided, they've begun to intrude into each other's territories and the securities aren't reliable as well. 

Also, Lerinare has once again been resurrected upon Nate's return and Saragame is growing as well with Feroz khan's intrusion into the mid-world.

And above all these two monsters didn't enter Theemai or threaten Nix's life and the most plausible cause was Nix's prowess that literally created a wound on a transcendent who they would not possibly defeat. 

In recent days Nix has created a portal into his town. Although it needed to get permission to make a connection he built and the only city that welcomed Theemai was none other than Nazlane where Nagendra was living in.

Their relationship has grown quite good yet, there surely was a distance and Nagendra outright decided to continue building his own company to the top akin To Nix as he saw his strengths and authority over others. 

From Nagendra's view, Nix was a rival. Whilst Nix just sees him as one of those goody-two-shoes transmigrated heroes. Apart from all such, they were friends but, not best friends, just some random buddies who look out for each other and have some fun talk without intruding on each other's business or ideologies.

Nix, who had finished his conversation with Heredia decided to leave for Nazlane to visit the chamber of gods.

The Chamber of Gods is a place that cannot be built so easily. It needs to be built in a place that is trustable and safely protected. A chamber of gods is like a tower that draws out divinity the temple's amasses, it draws out the divinity and focuses it back to the Etherworld.  And the chambers in the Etherworld absorbs the divinity and acts like a cell phone tower by releasing divinity the gods will receive it from them.

These are measures made only because of the law of conservation and they had to exchange the powers to the folks that devote themselves. All in all, it's like networking and a means to maintain balance.

It may sound complicated since they can easily absorb from anywhere. But, the main concept here is maintenance. Although those beings call themselves gods they are still beings similar to other lives.

Nix left his clan house as soon as it became morning after informing his leave to Nazlane. 

He just walked to the teleportation center they've recently built.

He made the portal with the help of the dwarven tech and a few of his alchemists. People from Ruilo Magore had also left with Felishia yet a few decided to settle and those helped in renovating the city to make it safer than many other cities out there in chaos mainland and it was still growing.

The growing crime was a separate thing to worry about for now he had to care of the reward for everything he went through.

He walked towards the newly built tower-like structure. It wasn't exactly towering but, still, it was quite big enough to encompass about a hundred meters in width along and it was about twenty meters high.

There weren't those who trusted the portal service since it was very new to every other portal and its design was practically very different. Apart from that, the process was simple. One needs to put a token inside selecting location selecting device next to a humongous door.

At the moment device only has Nazlane. Upon sliding the token inside the device given from the counter where one should buy the token the door which seemed nothing extraordinary will glow in blue and the bulb that was attached at the top will light green, signaling that the portal is ready to enter.

And Nix opened the door and walked into the rift. And immediately he found himself standing atop of the circular teleportation device. 

The feeling was nothing different from teleporting through any other device. The portal was made in a convenient way that they needn't employ any other person nor keep it active making it more secure than any portal out there.

'Been a while isn't it?'

He uttered looking at Astaroth who was looking at him with a smirk floating by his side as Nix smiled at him.

Nix has been quite locked in his room until his recovery. He was surely injured severely that he needed care and more importantly he wasn't even at the level of fighting a Demigod when he faced Grendon and he is still the same so, if he needed to become powerful he needed this reward and he had quite stopped training since his got injured. 

He descended the platform and slowly walked out of the teleportation center. Unlike Nix's expectation Nazlane seemed to have crumbled down as well. 

It's quite contrary to his town the shops were broken people were living in the streets as though they were hit by poverty. Yet, still there a few that roaming. Probably it's because of the location Nix had teleported to.

The Regulars and citizens of Nazlane protested on letting Theemai get linked to teleport.

'Bruhh... This side of the city seemed to be doomed.'

Nix uttered to Astaroth and gave a gold coin to a random homeless little girl who was pulling Nix's shirt from the back.

[Private ability: Truth eye activaated]

Nix wasn't a saint to help the homeless he just thought he could help at least someone that asked help since he had a quite surplus amount of money rather he was checking for people with potential as he walked.

Soon children surrounded him and begged for coins. He didn't give a copper nor silver coin but a gold coin which caused a commotion making children surround him. Momentarily adults surrounded him as well. Each holding knives and weapons to their liking.

"Mr.Outlaw raise your arms and drop your pouch!"

Said the little girl who he gave a gold coin with a small knife pointed to his abdomen.

NIx smirked at her and looked at Astaroth.

{This is why you should be cautious of you surrounding and think about the impacts of your actions. Are your perhaps dulled down lying on your bed all day whilst banging your women?} 

Astaroth shrugged.

"Well~ Well, I thought you'd see through my idea. Guess you have dulled down from playing games. I'd rather make use of these homeless folks..."

{Hmm, I see... What you are planning but, what are you going to do to these little ones?}

"Nothing..."

He shrugged and swiftly shot his crossbow on a man that was approaching him.

Everyone around him was perplexed and dazed. His mom=vement was quick and casual that they couldn't predict him.

He then opened his pouch and poured down those gold coins on the ground making the crowd's interest collapse as the children began to pick the coins scattered on the muddled ground one by one.

This disruption caused confusion among the bandits that approached him.

"See, I could kill you all but, I want to make it easy."

He said cooly and threw another pouch towards the men.

The men were baffled yet, dropped their weapons and fell on their knees.

"Now we are takin!"

Nix said indifferently with a smirk.

{I see, what you are doing now.}

Astaroth said rubbing his chin with a smile.
