Immortality System: The Last Human's Transmigration

Chapter 56 Humanity's Inheritance



"Awaken, and you shall never truly die again."

*BOOOM*

The winds instantly picked up again. The mana in the air became visible due to the increase in its concentration, creating a dazzling yet destructive cyclone of mana.

I could hear the winds howl around me loud enough to cause blood to trickle out of my ears.

The mana in the air was so thick that it made breathing hard and the air felt like a dense gas entering my lungs and weighing me down.

It felt like my lungs were made out of the densest metal on earth, barely expanding and contracting when I tried to breathe.

\'Ah... Crap... I can\'t... Breath.\' I struggled to even think was the cyclone slowly ripped the air out of my lungs and forcibly contracted them.

Unbeknownst to me, my heart had flared up with blood energy and slowly burned the mana around me, turning it red in the process. This only increased in speed as the blood energy expanded further, before finally, the blood energy had its grasp on every particle of mana that entered the cyclone.

From a distance, one would only see an enormous tempest rising from the ground, and going up to the clouds and sky, uprooting dozens if not hundreds of trees in the process.

Every creature that saw this display began to run in the other direction. However, there was only one creature that recognized the energy, making them look towards the area with widened eyes.

Blanca, the white snake was looking in the direction of the cyclone while shivering in fear. It knew the energy it was feeling and could remember it ever since her first encounter with what she considered to be a "Complete monster."

To this day, she still got nightmares of the things she saw when she had looked into my eyes.

A crimson sky filled to the brim with red objects that seemed to peer into her very soul.

Shrill screams resounded for thousands of meters while faces appeared within the cyclone, each one screaming in what seemed like pain, anguish, and suffering.

In the center, I felt my consciousness start to fade while my feet slowly lifted off the ground, rising up and eventually reaching the center in height.

The clouds thundered with crimson lightning bolts shooting down from the skies, obliterating everything and anything in its wake.

It looked like the start of an apocalypse. An apocalypse that would awaken from the depths of the earth and incinerate everything within its path.

[Energy insufficient]

[Large-scale system intervention required]

[117.9 billion souls have chosen to assist the immortal\'s awakening]

[1 Immortality token sacrificed]

Barely opening my eyes, I watched as countless hands pushed through the red cyclone and pointed their palms towards me.

Some of their palms shone with a dim light barely brighter than the blood cyclone around me, while others shone with enough light to blond the sun itself.

I couldn\'t understand what was happening or why it was happening. Wasn\'t this kind of random? Wasn\'t this kind of over the top? My bloodline had already changed from a lesser human to an awakened human, so why did I have to awaken again?

Those were all the questions that ran through my mind, yet not one of them was answered. Instead, I could only help but raise more and more questions until finally.

[Body reconstruction]

I felt my muscles and organs tear apart, my tissues being torn and destroyed while my cells were ripped into smaller insignificant segments of what they used to be.

My vision had already turned red but just a second later, I watched as everything turned black and the familiar void once again consumed me.

I once again felt light, as if I could move anywhere and everywhere at the same time within this void.

It was a space filled with billions of red stars that I could see in the distance, yet while I tried and even felt capable of moving to them to see them up close, I would never get past a certain point, as if the stars themselves were running away.

I sat within this void for countless... I didn\'t even know how long I had been there. It was as if time was moving quickly, yet at the same time extremely slow.

It was a sensation that made me feel old and young at the same time, something I was almost certain no other human being has ever felt in their lifetime.

Eventually, the lights in the distance began to dim one by one, burning out and disappearing before my very eyes. I watched them leave and I watched them flare up for what seemed like the last time...

This was the case for all but one of these stars.

That star only grew brighter. Its light pierced through the void and lightening up like a supernova.

It was only then that my eyes widened, as two things appeared before me and caused my nonexistent heart to quicken and beat loudly in my ears.

It was a part of large crimson hands that appeared before me, the pressure they emanated more menacing than anything I had ever felt before. More menacing than the pressure I felt from that blood elf I had met before my first death.

"Long ago, use humans lost the ability to use magic..."

I was left dumbstruck.

This thing appeared out of nowhere just to tell me a story!?

"However, you shall not suffer the same fate as those who went astray. Those who chose their measly technology over infinite power..." The \'hands\' continued

I didn\'t know where the sound of its voice was coming from, but for now, I didn\'t have the leisure to question it.

"As humanity\'s last, you shall be given an advantage above all."

\'Could have sworn being immortal was quite the advantage, but I\'m not here to complain.\'

Contemplating its words for a few seconds, I did not waver and continued to watch the suspended hands.

After a moment of silence, I felt my patience run low. Fortunately, the hands began to speak again from god knows where the sound came from. I was just hoping that it wouldn\'t be from where I was imagining it to come from, otherwise, it would be slightly awkward.

"I hope we meet again someday, so don\'t die on us... You are our last hope after all." A faint chuckle could be heard in its voice causing me to widen my eyes a little.

"Our?" I asked, confused by the wording, yet before I could get my answer, I loud and mind-rattling \'ding\' entered my mind, causing me to wince in pain and look at the screen that had appeared in front of me.

[Your actions and existence have been recognized]

[You have been deemed a worthy successor]

[Would you like to receive the Human race\'s inheritance?]

[Yes] [No]
