Loser's redo: Transmigration in a novel

Thinking for a second, Zick took out the space shuttle, which was in the shape of a jet though flat.

This was the flying device that he brought from the dragon clan's main world. It cost him a hefty amount of the clan's contribution points. 

Thankfully, Zick had a large number of contribution points. He got a lot after agreeing to become a disciple of the fifth supreme elder. He brought some weapon he could use or he could give to his subordinate along the way too.

Arianell and Aurel got on the shuttle and sat beside Zick. At once, they rocketed forward at a speed unprecedented in the past

'It stands up to its reputation in the end. I can feel my divinity consumed in a slightly large amount, but it is nothing to fret over.' Zick was overall satisfied with this new traveling device.

"Father, I feel that I will ascend to godhood if I absorb a world core now." Arianell looked straight into Zick's eyes.

Hearing her voice, surprise passed through Zick's face. He didn't think it would be this soon, it seemed like Arianell experienced a huge advancement recently. 

"Okay." Zick decided to give a low-rank world core to her with no hesitation. He was very much looking forward to Arianell's power-up.

Holding the world core, Arianell stared at Zick with confusion. 

Looking at her, Zick understood what she wanted to know immediately. 

"There isn't any particular process while ascending to the god rank. Your quasi-divinity will evolve by itself after you absorb the world core." Zick explained patiently. 

That was what happened to Zick too, he had easily broken through after absorbing the world's core. 

The only requirement was to have no foreign substance present in the body, besides the one originating from a higher form of energy and the soul. 

Arianell nodded her head quickly and looked at the world core closely. Slowly, divinity left the core and traveled to her body, affecting the quasi-divinity. 

Aurel tapped at Arianell's back, at once accelerating the time around her. Within three seconds, the process was completed. 

Aurel's time manipulation was really a cheat, it made many things very convenient.

Feeling the changes in Arianell's presence, Zick was sure that she had ascended to the god rank. She was in the same rank as him now, though it wouldn't be long before he became a great god. 

"Hmm?" Suddenly, Zick felt an inexplicable burning pain in his palm. To a normal person, this pain would have made them scream and roll around on the floor, but to Zick, it was no different than a bug bite. 

Zick was very used to pain that even many gods could not compare to him. It was all thanks to his regenerative power, which made him fight in a self-destructive manner. 

Zick closely looked at his palm, a mark began appearing upon it, with a faint familiar presence being released from it. 

'It's Arianell's presence...What exactly is this?' 

Sending his divinity into it, Zick felt Arianell's very being. 

'This...If I use this, I can kill her with a simple thought.' Zick looked at Arianell with confusion. 

Suddenly, Arianell hugged Zick tightly, she had grown up, but her actions had not changed. But still, there was a strange sensation in her hug, it was as if she wouldn't ever let go of him. 

"What exactly did you experience while ascending to god rank?" Zick was keen to understand that something happened. 

"I had a dream and in it, Father died," Arianell said in simple words, but they carried heavy emotions with them. 

Zick wanted to think of it as nothing, but couldn't help but be cautious. 

Aurel, as if it was unfair for only Arianell to hug Zick, she embraced him from the side too, enjoying the warmth. 

"Tell me in detail." Zick seriously spoke, not pushing away both of them. 

"It was 100 years from now, I don't know how, but Father died." Arianell hugged Zick tighter saying this. 

'Now, what nonsense is this? Sigh...It's 100 years later, so I will just have to accelerate all of my current plans so that I can change whatever happened then.' Zick still decided resolutely. He was never the kind of person who took chances. 

Communicating using the device the dragon clan gave, Zick asked what exactly was the meaning of the strange mark in his palm. 

He soon received a reply. 

'I see, so when a dragon pledges their life or loves another, as a sign they give their soul mark to the partner. It is only possible once they become a god, huh?' Zick got a basic understanding by reading the reply. 

"Ah...stop crying now, you have grown up compared to before." Zick flicked the tears off Arianell's cheek. It was really a surprise to see her crying after such a long time. 

Calming Arianell down, Zick decided to let her sleep in his lap for a while to relax. 

'Is the dream she saw true? She seems to have experienced it more vividly than I thought. Only that would explain her reaction.' Zick softly patted Arianell's head, while thinking nonstop. 

One thing after another sprung itself onto Zick, making him feel tired. 

'No point in thinking about it. I should take a rest too.' Zick began cultivating his divinity core, training was resting for him!

Time went by quickly, after flying in the endless space for who knows how long, Arianell woke up.

Feeling a soft feeling touching her cheek, Arianell was immediately sure it was Zick's thigh. She began acting like she was asleep like nothing. 

"You can't fool me, get up now." Zick tapped on Arianell's cheek. 

Opening her eyes, Arianell unwillingly got off Zick's thigh. 

"You seem alright now, let's see what you are capable of now. Can you teleport with the two of us to the dream world?" Zick questioned with interest. 

Closing her eyes, Arianell began feeling the limit of her power and its range. Her space element divinity had a violet form, appearing extremely beutiful.

"It's possible." Arianell revealed a rare smile.
