Against The Gods With An Anime System 108 The Infinity Quests

"Alright Master Su Hengshan, you no longer have to worry about a coup or the Blackwood Stronghold. I am gonna go back to bed and get some sleep. You know what not to do." Said Mesa calmly. Su Hengshan, having completely understood the message, fearfully nodded yes and promised that n.o.body would disturb him.

"But, what about Heimu Qingya? Aren't you going to do anything with him?" Asked Su Hengshan hesitantly.

"Leave him. I want him to remember what happened tonight so he'll know that he shouldn't have any ideas about coming after you again. I'll be gone in a few days anyways, so if he comes back with reinforcements to exact his vengeance on me. Just tell him that I am gone." Said Mesa to Su Hengshan without turning around.

Coming back to his room, he saw Xia Qingyue was still busy refining the energy from the Emperor Awakening Heart Lotus and Su Ling'er was asleep next to her. Looking at Xia Qingyue, it was apparent that she was a good ways done refining the energy.

Deciding to just lie down and catch some sleep, Mesa took off his coat and hung it up before he lied down on the bed and closed his eyes.

"So, I take it you took care of those people." Said Xia Qingyue with her eyes still closed.

"Yeah, all I had to do was use the Gate of Babylon and it was over in an instant. But if you don't mind, I am gonna get some sleep. After everything we've been through today, I am in desperate need for some sleep." Said Mesa as he turned over in his bed and drifted off into dreamland not much later.

The next morning. When Mesa woke up, he looked to next bed over and saw Su Ling'er still sleeping on it, but there was no Xia Qingyue. Getting out of bed, Mesa went to the kitchen to make some breakfast for himself, Xia Qingyue and Su Ling'er. Coming back to the room with a tray that had few plates of bacon and egg sandwiches, a few croissants with some flavored jellies, a pitcher of orange juice with a few cups and a cup of coffee for himself on it. Opening the door, he saw Xia Qingyue sitting there on the bed, patiently waiting for Mesa to return.

"Oh, you're back. I woke up and you were gone. Where did you go?" Asked Mesa as he placed their breakfast on the table.

"I woke up early and you two were still asleep. So I went out for a walk and saw the craters you made yesterday and the blood stains that were still left. According to the talks that I heard from these people, you have made quite the show yesterday and now everyone here fears you more than anything else." Said Xia Qingyue calmly as she sat down at the table and starting eating her breakfast. Pouring some orange juice in a gla.s.s for her, Xia Qingyue drank it with a satisfied look on her face.

"I can also see that you've completely refined that energy from the Emperor Awakening Heart Lotus. I had expected you to be at least level 3 Sky Profound Realm. But to think you have made it all the way to level 3 Emperor Profound Realm. That is quite a surprise." Said Mesa as he looked at Xia Qingyue and measured her eventual strength level after she was done refining the energy within the Emperor Awakening Heart Lotus.

"Yes, I was quite surprised as well. To think I would end up at such a high level." Said Xia Qingyue.

And so, after waking up Su Ling'er for breakfast, all three of them were enjoying the peace and quiet and the delicious taste of their breakfast. In between taking sips of his coffee, Mesa was hounded by Su Ling'er about questions what kind of food it was and why it was so delicious.

After they've had their breakfast, all three of them went for a walk through the woods where Su Ling'er liked to go and play. Whilst they were walking through the forests, they were being followed and the one following them was none other than Su Haoran.

'That b.a.s.t.a.r.d! First he has such a beautiful woman following him around and then he ruins my chances at overthrowing that coward of a father mine and becoming Clan Master myself! I have to find something… anything that I can use against this monster! Maybe, just maybe, I can find something to have him work for me!' Thought Su Haoran desperation.

Back at the group, Mesa and the two girls were just having a stroll through the woods and generally having a nice time. But slowly and without letting Su Ling'er notice her, Xia Qingyue approached Mesa and whispered in his ear: "Mesa, we're being followed."

"I know. I have already dispatched a clone to take care of it." Whispered Mesa back and they went back to their stroll in the woods.

Meanwhile, Su Haoran was still following them and hiding behind a tree. When all of a sudden, an arm grew out of the tree, grabbed Su Haoran by the throat and pushed him up against the tree.

Su h.o.a.ran, who was obviously freaking out, was desperately trying to fight against the arm. Moments later, the rest of Mesa's body started to come out of the tree, much to Su Haoran's horror

"What the f.u.c.k are you?! H-h-how… What?! Just…What?! You are standing right there!" Screeched out Su Haoran, while desperately fighting against clone Mesa's hold on his throat and pointing at where Mesa was walking with Xia Qingyue and Su Ling'er.

"How is not important. What is important is why you are following us? Are you still sad that your carefully planned coup d'état attempt failed because of me and now you're trying to find something you can use against me." Said Mesa causing Su Haoran to go wide-eyed for a moment.

"W-w-what are you talking about?! How dare you accuse me of such heinous crimes." Angrily yelled out Su Haoran.

"Oh G.o.d, I am so not in the mood for this right now." Mumbled Mesa as he looked Su Haoran in the eyes and put him in a genjutsu.

TSUKUYOMI

Waking up, Su Haoran found himself lying on a table with a large light above him, shining down on him. But what was worse, was that he couldn't move his body at all. His eyes were open and he could see, hear and feel everything, but he couldn't move a muscle. And just then, Mesa appears above him, looking down on him and more Mesa's appear around the table looking down on him.

"Well, well, well. Welcome to the operation. Today, I wanna teach you something. Did you know that when doctors perform surgery on people, they use anesthesia on them to put them under, so that they can perform the surgery without the patient feeling any pain or remembering it. The function of an anesthesia is to paralyze the body, turn off consciousness and to stop the formation of memories." Said Mesa to Su Haoran, who wanted to say something but unable to do so.

"But sometimes, somethings go wrong and the anesthesia doesn't work properly. Sometimes, the anesthesia doesn't work on the patients and they feel everything during surgery. But sometimes, it's even worse. Sometimes, the anesthesia only partially works. It paralyzes the body, but it does not turn off consciousness and it does not stop the formation of memories. This is called anesthesia awareness." Said Mesa as to took a scalpel and showed it to Su Haoran.

"Today, we are gonna have to do surgery on you. And as it turns out, the anesthesia didn't do its job and only paralyzed your body without knocking you out. So you are going to be feeling everything today. Consider this your punishment for that failed coup d'état." Said Mesa as he starts cutting into Su Haoran's stomach.

AAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!

Feeling ma.s.sive amounts of pain from Mesa cutting open his stomach, Su Haoran wanted to scream, he wanted to trash and stop him, but nothing. No sounds came out of his mouth and no movements were made by his body. And yet, he felt all the pain.

The other Mesa's also picked up scalpels and start cutting into Su Haoran's body. Others pick up hypodermic needles and starts jamming them into his eyeb.a.l.l.s or his gums or below his nails.

And this went on and on, for what seemed like an eternity. His tongue was cut out, his eyeb.a.l.l.s pierced, his nails ripped off and his intestines pulled out. And Su Haoran was left feeling all the pain and not being able to move. Just when he felt his breath exit his body, did he feel that his nightmare had come to an end. But after he opened his eyes, he was met with something completely different. For instead of the sweet release of death, he was met with something else.

"Welcome back, just in time for the next surgery." Said Mesa looking down on him. And around this Mesa were multiple other Mesa's, all of them holding instruments for surgery and they started cutting into him almost immediately. He just woke up again on the same table, with the same Mesa's looking down on his with their instrument and starting the h.e.l.l all over again and again and again and again.

After what seemed like an eternity of torture, Su Haoran found himself back in the forest with Mesa choking him and pushing him against the tree. He realized that his h.e.l.l, where he had spent an eternity, had only lasted but a mere instant in the real world.

"You… you monster." Su Haoran managed to slip out before he lost consciousness. Dropping his worthless a.s.s on the ground, Mesa was about to leave when he had noticed something.

'Huh, it would seem I have a message that I haven't opened yet.'

['JARVIS, can you open that message for me.']

["Certainly sir. Opening message now…

"I see you have finally noticed this message Ray. I have sent you this message to tell you that I have a big quest planned out for you: 'The Infinity Quest'. This quest is about you gathering the Infinity Stones. As you may have noticed, during that Emergency Quest, you had to contend with a ma.s.sive amount of monsters that were much stronger than you had originally thought. And to make matters worse, you've had to fight the Lich King. Well, I can tell you that it was all a part of the Infinity Quest. Right now, you are in possession of two Infinity Stones, which means you still have four Infinity Quests left. Each one of the Infinity Quest will happen at a random moment in time and will push to the absolute brink of either your body or your insanity or both. But I will throw you a bone and tell you this. I have hidden one of the Infinity Stones in a random place somewhere in this world. But do worry, you are the only person who can find this Infinity Stone. The native people of this universe are incapable of finding it. So this means, you only have three Infinity Quests left. Good luck with that and see you next time."

End of message"]

'Ohh, well that is quite a surprise. I knew that that emergency quest was not something normal, but to think that it was an Infinity Quest. So according to this message, one of the Infinity Stones is hidden somewhere in this world and only I can find it. I hope that thing isn't in some super dangerous place. I am so not in the mood to go fight through another horde of monster again for one of these Infinity Stones. Well, at least this means that I have only three Infinity Quests left. So at least that's better.' Listening to this message really put a smile on Mesa's face, before he disintegrated.

The rest of his time in the Azure Cloud Continent were spent playing with Su Ling'er, making food for her and Xia Qingyue and and just lazing around. 47 hours later, Mesa and Xia Qingyue were standing at the entrance of the Grandwake Clan, with Su Hengshan and Su Ling'er waving them off.

"Big brother Mesa, do you really have to go. Can't you stay just a few more days." Said Su Ling'er with a sad face.

"I am afraid not. I really must go now. But at least we have had a lot of fun, didn't we?" Said Mesa with Su Ling'er nodding to him with a sad face.

"Here take this. This way you'll remember me." Said Mesa and took out the Dragonscale Armour and gave it to her. Su Hengshan eyes went wide when he saw Mesa give his daughter a Sky Profound Armor.

"Brother Mesa, are you certain about this. While I am grateful that you would grant my daughter such a great treasure, are you really certain about this?" Asked Su Hengshan.

"Yeah, why not. Believe it or not, but this thing is not worth anything to me. Which reminds me. Here! Catch!" Said Mesa as he threw a spatial ring at Su Hengshan. Using his Profound Energy to check the contents of the spatial ring, Su Hengshan felt like his body would collapse. For what was inside the spatial ring were 5000 Senzu beans. But what really shocked Su Hengshan were the 10 Tyrant u0026 Sovereign Profound Realm beast cores that were inside.

But before he could say anything, Mesa had cut him off: "I know what you're thinking about and the answer is no. I will not take it back. I literally have thousands of those things stored away, giving a few of those away is no problem for me. So just take them and make sure to make good use of them. But anyways, we're going now. Maybe we'll see each other in the future one day."

After he said his piece, Mesa and Xia Qingyue walked away. Su Ling'er and Su Hengshan were still staring at them. Su Ling'er because she didn't want Mesa to leave and Su Henshan because he couldn't believe what Mesa had given him.

Walking away from the Grandwake Clan, Mesa and Xia Qingyue were silently walking side by side until the s.p.a.ce around them started to distort. After a moment of spatial distortion, they found themselves back at the Heaven Secret Basin Realm, but in a completely different location than they were at when the Evil G.o.d had whisked them away.

"Mesa, are you sure that was a good idea? You know, about giving them those Profound Beast cores. They had already suffered an attempted coup d'état for another treasure. If people find out about those beast cores, they will come after them." Asked Xia Qingyue.

"Don't worry about it. I'll handle it. I can teleport anyways, so I will just dispatch a clone of mine there and make sure that they're secure. Which reminds me. Here! This one is for you and the Frozen Cloud Asgard. But make sure you keep this secret and don't take it out until you're back at the Frozen Cloud Asgard." Said Mesa nonchalantly and threw spatial ring at Xia Qingyue. This spatial ring contained another 5000 Senzu Beans, but this one had hundred Tyrant u0026 Sovereign Profound Beast cores in it.

After everything she had seen and had been told about, Xia Qingyue just gratefully accepted Mesa's gift and stored the spatial ring away in another spatial ring.
