Lingling.
A month has passed since Vahn gave such a name to Chaos, who was with her.
Thanks to being a companion animal of battle god, Lingling naturally took on a position like a kind of mascot among the Plutonian.
“Lingling, I mean it’s kind of cute.”
As Jin took a bite of the Cakto and said, Lingling, which was on Vahn’s shoulder, suddenly exposed its fangs.
[So, are you dissatisfied?]
Still, Jin and Lingling often quarreled. In fact, there is no resentment left for each other, though.
"Dissatisfied? I just thought sister battle god has an unexpected side.”
[Huh! It's surprising that Vahn took me. You don't like it, right?]
“You interpreting it wrong again. I'm just amazed that the sister battle god prefer cute names like that...….”
[I don't like you.]
“Ha, is that so? I don't like you very much either."
[Are you going to try it!?]
“Enough, both of you.”
[Mya mya!]
Vahn and Shuri, who were listening, shook their heads. They've been watching Jin and Lingling fight like this for a month now, whenever they run into each other.
“Sorry, sister battle god.”
[Okay, Vahn.]
“And Lingling. Brother Jin is right. Why do you always misinterpret Brother Jin's words?”
[Why does Vahn always take his side?]
“Because you did something wrong.”
[Hmm…… If only Vahn said so. I’m sorry?]
Jin shrugged his shoulders, and Lingling clung to Vahn’s cheek, giving a sullen look.
“Brother Jin didn’t do anything well either. Lingling has just started living in group, so there are many things he lacks. So even if he make some mistakes, Brother Jin should understand.”
Merong, Merong! Lingling teased Jin by sticking out his tongue and pulling under his eyes, but Jin swallowed a laugh and stayed still.
Lingling was beaten up by Vahn every time that happened.
Bang!
[Ha!]
Lingling clutched his forehead for a moment, then rubbed his body against Vahn’s cheek again.
'Anyway, he is very fond of the sister battle god. This guy was that terrible chaos...… I just can't get used to it.'
Jin thought it was very nice to see Vahn and Lingling living together.
“Then, since you seem to have had enough rest, let’s start training again.”
Vahn and Jin sat down facing each other.
After deciding to accept LingLing, they are practicing ‘battle god fusion’ every day.
Naturally, battle god fusion was stabilising at a rapid pace unlike before.
Now the two of them can control their 'coordination'. Jin losing consciousness and Vahn being exhausted due to an battle god fusion has completely disappeared.
It was thanks to Lingling voluntarily becoming a link between the two.
Whoa-!
As the two's illuminating hearts shone, Vahn’s energy began to flow to Jin.
Adding Vahn’s power to the already reached 10-star aura did not actually have a dramatic 'reveal' effect. According to Vahn, it's because Jin is still in a state where he can't even handle his own power properly.
Only the size his power has reached 10-stars, but Jin was not able to produce that much efficiency because he did not have control over his power unique to a first-class superhuman.
“We need to know exactly how much power Brother Jin can handle. So focus.”
“Yes, sister battle god.”
Vahn’s method is similar to Luna's mind eye training in the past.
Just like when awakening his mind eye, Jin is “recognising” his own aura with his eyes closed.
It was like swimming in the sea. It was a task to form the image of sea of power into his mind and find out its size.
How far can you go and where is the end?
As always, Jin was completing the process faster than Vahn expected.
Eventually, as Jin narrowed his brows, Vahn gave a satisfied smile.
“Did you find out?”
"Yes. As the sister battle god said, it's very clear that it's really different from the end. This is the end. And beyond...… I can see the sea that seems to embody the power of the sister battle god. In between, there is the energy of darkness.”
The dark energy belonged to Lingling. That energy was a passageway connecting the powers of Jin and Vahn, and also served as a kind of safety device.
Lingling's will is preventing the two people's powers from mixing excessively.
Without it, Jin and Vahn has no choice but to have problems, just like when the battle god fusion had been manifested before.
“Now that we have reached this point, the control of battle god fusion is no different from being completed.”
“…… Right now, my vessel is not enough, so even if I synchronised with sister battle god, I cannot generate more power than the total amount of my strength.”
When Lingling deprived his strength, Jin felt his entire body filled with Vahn’s energy. At that time, Jin's vessel was empty, but not now. There was no room for Vahn’s strength to intervene.
However, the battle god fusion was a transcendent for two reasons.
“Now, as long as you are with me, you never gets tired.”
In the state of battle god fusion, the power of Vahn added whenever Jin's energy is drained. It means that he can always have the maximum amount of strength.
If the 'mirror' gave Jin divine mana at the time of the Sword Emperor castle war, Vahn gave him infinite aura and lightning energy.
But there was something else that really surprised him.
“Yes, on top of that, the experience, senses, and eyes of the sister battle god are being added…….”
Jin, who had been talking until there, suddenly shuddered. It was because the shudder ran down his spine.
Just now, Jin accurately recognized the maximum level of his strength, and recognized the connection point of the lingling and the strength of Vahn beyond it.
Thanks to the progress Jin had made in one month, the battle god fusion was showing a different level of synchronisation than before.
The result is the sharing of experiences, senses, and eyes of Vahn.
[T/L: Here eyes means vision or things that Vahn sees with her Battle god powers. You can under it like how Chiron sees world while different from Jin.]
Everything Vahn had accumulated through her battle god experience was seeping into Jin’s brain.
Like Boras shared his experience through memory transfer blacksmithing technique, Valeria's recording magic, and Solderet’s recording device.
If they are succession, what Jin is experiencing now is a literal 'fusion'.
In other words, Jin was no different from being Vahn.
‘I guess this is how a blind person feels when he open his eyes…….’
Even the sight of the training ground, which was familiar like home, looked completely different.
Jin could recognize all of it, which walls were weak, which land was hard, and how colorful the wind was flowing.
The feeling of contemplating the world as a god rather than a human being. Jin shuddered at the feeling.
Even far away from the training ground, the breathing of the other siblings outside was clearly conveyed.
'Is that mean sister battle god usually lived with this feeling?'
The current Jin could not maintain that state for long. Even if he just stayed still, information and sensations that were difficult to handle were being transmitted, and just processing them made him out of breath.
Jin felt as if he was reborn when he experienced first battle god fusion. That was nothing compared to now.
The light that dyed the hearts of the two became weaker. Before Jin gets tired of it, Vahn canceled the battle god fusion.
"Huh."
Jin couldn't help but put on a bewildered expression, like someone who had witnessed a miracle that no one would believe. He had barely suppressed his terribly sorry feelings.
It feels like the world has returned to an achromatic color as soon as the battle god fusion is lifted.
The ground and wind at the training ground were no longer conveyed accurately and perfectly, and the breathing of the siblings could not be felt. The feeling of becoming a god disappeared as if it were a dream.
“You look quite shocked, Brother Jin.”
“Not quite like that. Just now...… I felt like I had reached the realm of genesis knight without any effort.”
“It is wrong to say that there was no effort. In the first place, my senses were conveyed to that extent because Brother Jin has his own skills.”
Just as Jin felt Vahn’s feelings, Vahn also felt Jin's feelings intact.
“…… That much? Are you saying that wasn't all there was?"
At that, Vahn smiled softly and replied:
“Brother Jin, I am a battle god.”
[Yes, my Vahn is a battle god! You poor bastard, I think it's an honor!]
[Mya, mya mya?]
At Lingling's reaction, Shuri screamed as if she was proud of Jin, but Jin couldn't get out of his shock for a while. He just realized that the ‘Vahn’ he had experienced wasn’t everything.
‘How strong is the sister battle god……?'
At the time of the first training in the past, the day when Jin was able to share battle god fusion. Even then, Jin felt Vahn like a huge wall, and it has always been that way ever since.
But now, it’s stronger than ever, seemed the furthest away.
“You will be able to step into the same realm as me. If you couldn't, you wouldn't even be able to accept my senses at all.”
Vahn do not speak empty words. Jin silently nodded his head. Jin doesn't know when it will be, but if she said that, it meant he could definitely reach it.
“The senses may be gone, but the memories will remain, Brother Jin.”
“Yes, sister battle god.”
Even though it seemed like the world had returned to achromatic colors, Jin vividly remembered the sensations he experienced during the fusion.
“We will proceed with training through that sense. In other words, you learn how to fight like me. Also, let’s do it at the same time by increasing the duration of the fusion.”
There is no training in the world that can grow someone faster than that. Jin was so sure.
[If you want to increase the time, it would be better to behave good towards me.]
“Uh-huh, Lingling.”
[Huh.]
“When brother Jin’s skills reach a certain level, from then on, he will start sparring again with the battle king siblings. The first opponent is brother 12th battle king.”
12th battle king, Teto. The reason Vahn singled out Teto as Jin’s first opponent was because he is the weakest of the battle king.
Vahn was looking forward to seeing Jin defeat the battle kings one by one in order of combat power.
"All right."
Lingling.
A month has passed since Vahn gave such a name to Chaos, who was with her.
Thanks to being a companion animal of battle god, Lingling naturally took on a position like a kind of mascot among the Plutonian.
