Chapter 777 Unparalleled Control

Nevertheless, after recovering 20% of his soul force, the potency of the Soul Rejuvenating Water greatly reduced but did not cease; his soul force continued to recover at a 50% increase of his normal rate.

Although it didn\'t seem like much, a near-instant 20% soul force recovery was definitely a lifesaver.

Vaan suspected the Soul Rejuvenating Water would be valuable, but the effects were more miraculous than he anticipated, greatly increasing its value.

To think that Hecate still had many more of it...

Vaan couldn\'t help but feel even more curious about her background. If she wasn\'t some powerful Potioneer, her background must be truly impressive.

"Did you make this Soul Rejuvenating Water yourself, Lady Hecate?" Vaan inquired.

"You\'ll find out if you visit my territory, Sir Vaan," Hecate vaguely replied, reminding him to visit her Dreamdust Territory again.

Vaan could see that Hecate really wanted him to visit her territory. He helplessly shook his head, knowing he would only get all his answers once he went there.

"Where did you want to explore? That asteroid field?" Hecate guessed after a brief look around for points of interest.

Nevertheless, rather than calling the asteroid field a point of interest, it was THE only point of interest. Given their present location, there was nothing else out in the star system to explore besides that.

"That\'s right," Vaan nodded.

"That asteroid field looks quite far," Hecate knitted her brows, saying, "Although my stellar-traveling ability is quite fast, it should be inferior to your spatial-displacing ability in terms of distance covered over time."

"I\'ll have to trouble you to take me along with your spatial-displacing ability, Sir Vaan. In return, I\'ll protect you should we face any danger in that asteroid field," Hecate suggested.

Vaan found her suggestion very agreeable since her powerful strength was the reason he accepted her company in the first place.

"That\'s fine with me," Vaan nodded and said, "Well then, please excuse my discourtesy."

Shortly after, Vaan held Hecate\'s slim waist and shifted them through space together, covering a couple hundred thousand kilometers in an instant.

"T-This is..."

Hecate was immediately astounded by the rapid change in space as they covered huge distances.

She had already anticipated that Vaan would be proficient in the Spatial Law, but she still underestimated him. It\'s not that she underestimated his comprehension, but she greatly underestimated his control.

Although she had not comprehended the Spatial Law to an acceptable level, she still knew much about it.

As such, she quickly found out that the distance they covered in an instant had far exceeded the limit of Second-stage Divine-rank Spatial Law. In fact, this kind of huge leap was most likely on par with the spatial ability of a Rank 7 Divine Being.

After all, a spatial user couldn\'t leap into a space they couldn\'t have sensed beforehand. It had to be within the range of their spatial sense, something that grew along with their increase in comprehension of the Spatial Law.

Hecate couldn\'t understand how there could be such a huge disparity in distance covered.

Since she didn\'t understand it, she had to figure it out.

After Vaan shuttled them through space the same way another hundred times, Hecate finally understood what was going on with his absurd distance coverage.

Spatial user\'s spatial senses were normally like a spherical domain with themselves at its center. It was also inside this spherical domain that they could manipulate space according to their will.

However, Vaan could alter his spherical-shape sense into a more linear form, maximizing his distance coverage in a singular direction.

Although Hecate grasped the concept, she still found it unbelievable.

After all, the demand for control was so high that she didn\'t think it was possible—at least, that would have been the case had she not witnessed Vaan repeatedly pulling it off.

Even Soul Masters wouldn\'t necessarily have this kind of heaven-defying control ability.

After all, increasing the distance coverage by a couple of folds would have already been very impressive. However, Vaan was leaping at tenfold to twentyfold the normal distance for the spatial users of his comprehension level.

His level of control was simply in a realm of its own; it was unparalleled in the world.

…

Back in the Great Ratholos Empire\'s imperial capital, the Vampire Lords were having second thoughts over time as they waited.

Although they had been greatly intimidated by Hecate\'s divine aura previously, most of them had never heard or seen her before.

When they learned that she had only assumed the position of Great Devil around 10,000 years ago and was only 20,000-odd years old, their faith in her quickly dropped. They didn\'t believe she was as experienced as their Blood Ancestor and wouldn\'t be his match.

This thought was further strengthened when they found out she specialized in illusions.

Nevertheless, their growing flame of rebellion was quickly and thoroughly extinguished when the three Vampiress Lords and Nine Dreamcatchers arrived twenty minutes after Hecate\'s departure.

They were all shocked by the high cultivation of the Nine Dreamcatchers and found it hard to keep up with the present times.

The Dark Fairy Race wasn\'t so powerful 700,000 years ago.

…

In the Red Dragon Clan\'s temporary camp, Ophelia suddenly stood with a smile and announced, "Everyone, Lady Hecate has successfully met up with Sir Vaan and slain the villainous Abaddon together. The sinister Great Devil is no more."

"Truly? That\'s great!" Henrietta quickly rejoiced along with everyone else presently gathered.

However, Victoria didn\'t miss the chance to tease her despite everyone else displaying similar joy.

"Hennie, do you know you look like an ecstatic wife after learning her dear husband will be returning home victoriously and safely?"

"W-W-What kind of nonsense are you spewing, Victoria?!" Henrietta shrieked like a cat that had gotten her tail stepped on before furiously responding with a flushed face, "I\'m just overjoyed that we have won against a Great Devil! This is a joyous occasion!"

"Sheesh, if you know I\'m spewing nonsense, then treat it as such. There\'s no need to overreact like that, right? Kekeke," Victoria chuckled and smiled like a sly fox.

Henrietta immediately felt like a fish bone got stuck in her throat; she was unable to retort.

At the same time, everyone gave weird looks, making her wish to disappear on the spot.
