I am an Eldritch Entity

In a secluded corner of the headquarter of the Human Federation. There was a room, with an entrance which was hidden.

It was one of the secret rooms of the headquarters used only in emergency situations or highly secretive operations.

"Do you feel nervous?"

A middle aged woman could be seen talking to a red haired man. It was Sander, who was polishing his blade.

"Kind of, you should know the risks of this the most, Commander Elise."

It turns out the middle aged woman was Commander Elise, the disciple of Dr. Kirchoff, who had carried out the purge when the Cosmic Limit rose from one to two.

The middle aged woman replied indifferently.

"I know the risks, that is why I volunteered last time, and this time again. But I don’t know what Dr. Kirchoff saw in you that he agreed to let you be the one to purge this time instead of me."

Sander didn’t offer any words of explanation, but continued polishing his blade.

It was his way of calming his nerves.

A few minutes later, two more people arrived. One was an old woman, and the other was a middle aged man, who had a laptop with its screen opened in his hand.

The man spoke.

"We’ve locked onto all our targets. Only target number three and nine are confirmed to possess a Mystical Artifact. Target number four, seven and thirteen are suspected to possess one.

"All the information regarding them has been passed to you. Make sure to complete the mission without fail."

Sander nodded with utmost seriousness. The two before him were the Co-founders of the Human Federation, with that man being the one who had just returned from a secret realm.

His name was Morris, while the old woman’s name was Margaret.

Margaret handed Sander a bag.

"Your resources. Start your breakthrough."

Morris sat down on a nearby chair as he typed on his laptop while chuckling.

"It’s a good thing that the Ravencroft and Mage Outer Domain incident delayed your purge. It enabled me to be able to take part in this big thing."

While taking out a blue colored pill carefully from a glass box, Sander raised an eyebrow in Morris’ direction and asked.

"Are you talking with Guardian Sol again? You seem to have taken a liking to him."

Morris looked up from his laptop at Sander and answered with a smile.

"If someone heard you without context they’d think I am gay."

This time the old woman, Margaret, pitched in.

"I mean, it really was weird how you two became close friends so quickly. And from what I heard, it was you who always invited him to a battle, discuss new skills or simply to have some coffee.

"Anyone would find you weird to be honest. Say, did something happen to you in the secret realm?"

Morris just looked at everyone in disdain.

"Everyone here has their minds in the gutter. Can’t I appreciate a rising star? Can I not form good connections with him while he is still growing?

"I also helped that young lad Kron from the Academy. Now what? Are you going to say I am a child predator?"

Commander Elise raised up her hand and spoke with an indifferent look.

"Can you all quieten down? This is not the time to chit chat, take it seriously guys."

She then turned to Sander.

"Can you stop wasting time?"

Sander dutifully sat cross legged and popped the pill in his mouth.

Being a disciple of Dr. Kirchoff, Commander Elise was one of the most senior members of the Federation. Paired up with her position of a Commander, almost no one dared to cross paths with her.

Sander certainly didn’t want to be on her bad side.

Soon, everyone felt Sander’s aura rising.

Sander was already on stage nine of the Infernal Acolyte realm, which was the second level of the Demon power system.

The first level of the Demon power system was called Blood initiate.

Everyone present already had knowledge of the third level of the Demon power system. It was called Fiend.

Margaret had a few items ready in her hand as she gazed at Sander’s rapidly rising aura.

Part of the reason they were here was to swiftly provide assistance to Sander in case he failed to breakthrough, or if the Cosmic Limit didn’t increase despite his breakthrough.

The latter would be the worst situation. They weren’t sure if the means provided by Dr. Kirchoff would be able to save him if the Cosmic Limit didn’t increase.

They had seen how a few people of the Eight Outer Domains directly ended up dying because their level was higher than the one allowed by the Cosmic Limit.

Not even a moment had passed since they stepped on earth did they straight up die without any resistance.

Finally, Sander’s aura transformed. It changed qualitatively.

It wasn’t a quantitative change like going from one stage to another. It was an increase in the realm.

Sander had stepped into the Fiend realm of the Demon pathway, the first third level existence of humanity.

Without wasting any time, he stood up and left through the hidden exit with a blade in his hand.

He didn’t celebrate, he had better ideas on how to go about it.

There was a pin drop silence in the room as everyone felt the ceiling of power increase. It was an instinctual feeling for people like them who stood almost at the peak.

Although they weren’t at stage nine like Sander, all the people in the room were either stage eight or seven, not too far.

They clearly felt the ceiling of power becoming higher, no longer feeling as constrained.

Commander Elise suddenly felt her phone vibrate briefly.

Taking it out, she saw that her mentor Dr. Kirchoff had finally replied to her.

A few days ago, she had asked him why Sander was chosen instead of her.

She opened the communication app and read his message.

Dr Kirchoff: "Sander’s ability is far more suited to this task than yours.

"The lesser teammates he has around him, the stronger he grows.

"The more enemies he is facing, the stronger he grows.

"The longer the fight drags on, the stronger he grows."

Elise’s eyes widened subtly.

No wonder no one knew of Sander’s ability. It’s best kept hidden.

There was another message from her mentor.

"Don’t worry, this purge will be successful."

Or will it?
