Chapter 17 – A Breathtaking New World
"I... received a blessing from a goddess?" I whispered softly.
My eyes were fixed on the words in my status—Blessing of the Goddess of Life and Death – Persephone.
"So... gods really do exist?" I murmured, almost like I was talking to myself.
In my mind, that voice echoed again. Gentle, cold, and calming. The voice that reached out to me just before I lost consciousness.
Was that... Persephone's voice?
I didn't know. But one thing was certain—this blessing gave me new power.The Death Element.A power that felt so profound. Not just the power to kill, but something that brushed the edge between life and death.
I took a deep breath and sat up. My body still felt strange. Not weak, but as if I had evolved too far from my original form. I felt more refined, more agile, and stronger than ever before.
My eyes scanned my surroundings.
Trees, Bushes,Soil and the gentle breeze rustling the leaves.
I was in the forest.
No cars, buildings and no sign of human presence.
