Looking at her stats, Neo couldn't help but be shocked, but his mind calmed down. Having such a big show during evolution was worth these changes in stats.
Ignoring her talents, which can be called top tiers among top tiers, the thing that shocked Neo the most was her skills.
Final Transcendence, a skill owned by all those in Transcendent rank wasn't a surprise for him. If she didn't get the skill then it would have been a surprise.
Battle Eye of Stars and Star Enhancement both reached top rank, surpassing 90% of the creatures in this continent.
Then there is Stella's Starry Sky Swordsmanship, a king-rank skill almost reaching the ceiling of the lord's continent.
Learning such a powerful skill at such a low rank, it seems he had underestimated her understanding and IQ.
As for her stats, well her true stats, it was comparable to a Top(High) tier among the races but now it has reached the peak of the top tier.
So her current stats are equal to a pure dragon of the same rank, this is an unheard-of feat as a pure dragon is born at King Of Mortal rank at the least.
Stella called out softly, hearing her voice woke him from his thoughts. Looking at the charming face of Stella he couldn't help but smile.
Gently patting her head he started to speak.
"How can your strength not be satisfactory?"
"You truly are the best My Cute Stella."
Hearing his words Stella's face became red again as she looked toward the ground, seeing her shy look warmed his heard as he continued to pat her head.
"With you here, I have at least a 1% chance of reaching Divine Lord Rank.."
Neo spoke his voice this time a little more seriously, the 1% chance isn't pessimistic though but can be considered the most optimistic one.
In the thousands of years of Human Lordship, there have been many who created their race. Most of them faded in history but some had managed to etch their name in the history of lordship.
There were few among them who had managed to control the entire lord continent, destroying 90% of the other lord, having so many resources that person still failed to reach the Divine Lord Rank.
In fact, he choosing to walk this path could be considered suicide. Although he will try his best to fight against fate he still has some fear in his heart.
Fear that he will fail like those who came before him, he fears to sadden Yulan's heart the only person who he could say to have loved back home.
Now a new fear has been added, the fear of taking Stella into this road to abyss and failing her trust in him.
Suddenly he heard Stella's should as her soft body hugged him, feeling her touch and seeing her sweet smell calmed his restless heart.
"My Dearest Lord, No matter what troubles you, I shall destroy it for you!"
Stella's muffled but determined voice reached Neo's ears, like a hot knife cutting through butter it tore through all his negative thoughts.
With Stella's presence, his mind seems to have become open, he seems to see all the flaws that plague his body.
He took a step, a step on the path of Transcendent, but as he looked up there was only darkness with no path ahead.
"So please use me as your sharpest sword and tear a path ahead!"
Stella's voice resounded in his mind again, in the path filled with pure darkness a burst of light appeared.
The figure of Stella with her gentle smile that was only available to him appeared, her golden eyes turned like that of a starry sky.
She stood next to him and she held his hand, as their hands touched a sword made of starlight appeared in Stella's hands.
Looking at the pathless road ahead she slashed out as a path was cut open, but darkness seemed to devour this path as it started to crumble.
Neo looked at his side, he saw the figure of Stella smiling at him, her body seemed to turn into starlight as they were absorbed by Neo.
"Stella, My Cutest and Sharpest sword, cut a path ahead for me."
He spoke instinctively as a sword appeared in his hand, in the pure space of darkness it became his only light.
He could feel the presence of Stella from this sword as he seemed to understand something, his eyes started to change as they turned to look like the starry sky.
He felt overwhelming power fill his body as he swung the sword with full force, a dazzling sword light burst out as a path was carved in darkness.
A path looked over by a starry sky up above radiating all the Love Stella has for him.
Saying that softly he took a step forward as he walked into the carved path.
In the real world, Stella tightly hugged her lord, she could sense the darkness and troubles trying to devour her lord.
She spoke every word with great passion as she was trying to reassure her dearest lord, assure him that she was here.
He seems to have heard as the darkness in his heart starts to face away, she looked up as an aura of transcendence rose from his figure.
A white glow surrounded her lord as she felt a familiarity in this white glow, so much so that her hugging didn't affect his evolution.
After a while, the transcendent light faded away as Neo opened his eyes. His eyes which were originally light blue seem to have taken a deeper shade.
Seeing Stella looking at his face when hugging him a gentle smile appeared on his face, he bent his head down as he kissed her on her forehead.
"Thank you, My Cutest and Strongest Sword~"
Neo spoke but Stella's ears didn't hear it as her mind had crashed out due to the kiss Neo had given her.
In the shouting side of the central Eastern region a battle was happening, a battle of four angels against a single beastman.
The angels were four-winged each reaching the Transcendent(Top) rank but their opponent was an Awakened Beastman reaching the Ascension(Low) rank.
They were clashing in the sky as with the help of an angel army the four angels were barely able to handle the opponent.
Baron, the chief of the nearby hundred beast alliance had an ugly face now, although in this battle non had an upper hand but that was the most troubling part for him.
The angels and these lords were stronger than he had thought, even his greatest overestimation seems to be an underestimation.
The large gap that exists between the Ascension rank and the Transcendent rank was somehow being made up for.
Plus he also had to focus his eyes on Yaman, he felt a faint sense of fear when he looked at him, not because of Yaman's strength but due to an item he was holding.
As he was thinking of whether to escape or continue this battle, a shocking phenomenon happened, a pillar of light connecting the sky and the earth appeared above the eastern region.
The angels also stopped as their attention turned toward the pillar of light, all of them started it in silence.
Yaman also watched this with shocked eyes as he looked at such a celestial phenomenon.
An aura of transcendence rose from this pillar as all the two wings of angels fell from the sky like flies. Even Yaman who hadn't reached Transcendent Rank looked at this with cold sweat dripping down his face.
Even with the protection of the All Heaven System, he felt a sense of suffocation.
"Star of Beginning..."
An ancient voice was heard as Yaman seemed to somewhat understand what this pillar meant, this made his face gloomy as he knew a troubled time was coming.
It was too quick, so quick that it appeared at the beginning of the growth of a lord.
After a while the pillar of light faded away, and Baron looked at the sky with a solemn face, turning his attention to the lord he gave him a deep look before flying away.
It seems it's time to get serious, he now properly understood the horror of the lord and also understood that he couldn't let them grow any longer.
"It's time for the alliance of the Thousand Beast tribe Alliance and the Human Cities."
He muttered as he faded away in the distance, Yaman didn't stop him as he walked inside the Lord's house.
