SSS Ranked Beast Tamer: My EP increases with girls

"There was a time when we were able to track Exus’ location, but the fellow that got sent after him was killed," Erin said, her voice tinged with a hint of regret. The mention of the fellow’s fate seemed to bring a moment of solemnity to the conversation.

"Moreover, his sacrifice was worth the information we got to learn in return," Erin continued, her expression turning determined. "We discovered that Exus was using his powers in a way that hurt humans in every world, even though to him, he call it test. So we decided to create the system."

"The system was created to give whoever comes across it a power similar to Exus’," Erin explained, her eyes locked onto Dave’s. "The person would be human but would have a god-level power. And the criteria were to find someone innocent, so the system wouldn’t fall into the hands of someone like Exus."

"To make this easier and void of suspicions, we attached the system to one of the meteors that would be sent to Earth by Exus," Erin revealed, her words painting a picture of careful planning. "And luckily, we discovered that in every world, he always gives a part of his powers to three humans. He would choose an evil and a good person, so as to have fun watching them fight against each other. Evil against good. And it’s always two evil against one good."

"Fortunately, you were picked," Erin said, a hint of satisfaction in her voice. "But we can’t just give you all the powers at the same time. So we decided to evaluate who had ended up with the system. And so far from my evaluations, I can say you’re a good person." Erin’s gaze seemed to bore into Dave’s soul, as if searching for any hidden truths.

The weight of Erin’s words settled upon Dave, and he felt a sense of wonder at the complexity of the situation. He was part of a much larger plan, one that spanned worlds and involved gods. The realization was both exhilarating and daunting.

"During our first ever experiment, the person we initially picked wasn’t lucky enough to activate all three powers, but somehow, you were able to," Erin said, a hint of surprise still evident in her voice. "You unlocked the first stage to godship." The words hung in the air, filled with implication.

"First stage to godship?" Dave repeated, his curiosity piqued. Erin’s expression turned enigmatic, and she seemed reluctant to elaborate. "More details won’t be revealed about that yet," she said, her voice firm but gentle. "But what we want you to know now is, you have to take down Exus at all costs. With powers almost similar to his, we’re counting on you to triumph and do what we as gods have failed to do."

Dave’s eyes narrowed, his mind racing with the weight of the task ahead. "And once I succeed, what will happen next?" he asked, his voice laced with determination.

Erin’s response was straightforward. "The apocalypse will end, everything will get back to normal. And there will be no more killings on earth."

For a moment, Dave thought about everything that had been said. The gods, all-powerful and ancient, had failed to take down one of their own. Now, they were relying on him, a human, to complete the task. The irony was not lost on him.
