I had glanced into my Status and found a lot of juicy stuff to enjoy from it. First of all, I ended up spending an awfully large amount of ti doing absolutely nothing, which ended up making my party get exasperated.
“Maria, why are you standing there doing nothing?” Asked Lucifer.
“AH! I was checking out my Status….” I said.
“But hurry up!” Said Lucifer.
“Don’t hurry, Master!” Said Partner while furrowing her eyebrows back at Lucifer.
The Dragon sighed and simply ignored her.
“Ugh, do whatever you want then,” He grumbled.
Anyways, ignoring the grumpy dragon, a large number of my Skills reached max level and evolved. Before this, my Dark Sphere had stayed at Lv10, but for so reason, it awakened now.
I’ve heard from sowhere that Skills need special conditions to awaken… like undergoing special trials, challenges, and more. Perhaps this entire thing was one? Or well, maybe the experience points pushed the Skills to awaken forcefully at the end.
I ended up laughing at the end, so it makes the winner, despite having been a complete bastard and asshole throughout this fight.
Anyways, the Skills that awakened in the end were…
The [Shadow Sneak: Lv10] Skill beca the [Shadow Transportation: Lv1] Skill. This one skill was a direct upgrade to it. Shadow Sneak lets beco one with the shadows and travel through them as if I were swimming through them. I can transport through shadows even faster with this new upgrade, perhaps several tis as fast. It seems that I can even do so short-range teleportation through shadows within my vicinity, but nothing too crazy like going to the other side of the world yet.
The [Magic Damage Resistance: Lv10] Skill beca the [Greater Magic Damage Resistance: Lv1] Skill. This was a direct and flat increase, granting even more resistance to magic damage, and I am a magic tank.
The [Ghost Touch: Lv10] Skill beca the [Phantasmal Grasp: Lv1] Skill. Now, this was interesting. The Phantasmal Grasp was upgraded to allow to grasp souls even more easily than Ghost Touch, which was usually a fear-inducing skill that doesn’t do much unless you get creative with it. Oh yeah, Phantasmal Grasp is the ability I used to pull out souls from near-dying bodies.
The [Lesser Curse: Lv10] Skill beca the [Greater Curse: Lv1] Skill. Now my curse had beco more potent and cannot be easily resisted through Resistance Skills, although Immunities will always work against them. Also, spells that dispel curses beco not so effective.
The [Life Drain: Lv10] Skill beca the [Life Absorption: Lv1] Skill. A greater version of Life Drain that lets directly absorb the life out of soone at a fast pace. It increases its speed when I touch them. If I could use it on soone not so strong, I could drain them out and leave them like dry mummies in an instant.
The [Dark Sphere: Lv10] Skill beca the [Dark Sun: Lv1] Skill. Now this one was great, the Dark Sphere of the beginnings had now beco a Dark Sun, and its size is around 3 to 10 ters. I can adjust it to my liking… and well, 3 ters is an imnse attack if it’s just a ball of darkness… But that’s not exactly it. This thing is not just a ball of obscurity now, it is a Sun for sothing, and well, it is because it is now covered with Black Flas, which are like so kind of advanced form of Phantom Fla that can consu life, mana, and even souls rapidly, and is very hard to turn off unless light magic is used… so this attack had indeed beco deadly beyond belief.
The [Dark Gale: Lv10] Skill beca the [Dark Storm: Lv1] Skill. Instead of a gale of dark winds that can cut through stuff, I can generate a storm out of these dark winds and throw it at soone, slicing through their bodies with the power of darkness and even cursing them in the process. I have beco a monster through and through.
The [Stealth: Lv10] Skill beca the [Masterful Stealth: Lv1] Skill. Lastly, Masterful Stealth is just what you expected, a Masterful way of using Stealth… Yep, that’s it.
What? It’s just a better Stealth!
“And done… I got many Skills awakened, so I was taking a look at them,” I said.
We were currently moving back to the caravan at a steady and slow pace. We had grabbed all the corpses and cleansed the scene of the cri by burning it all with fire courtesy of a new pair of friends, and then we moved forward.
I had plans with the corpse of Catarina and the Vampires, including the corpses of all the other guys. They were, of course, becoming my Undead servants, and I’ve even caught all their souls and have resisted the impulse of eating them up just because I am an amazingly benevolent woman.
Oh, and about the two new buddies we got… well, it could be said it is two rejected Vampires that were more like the victims in all of this. Their boss was really an asshole, to be honest…
“Maria, are you okay? Are your feet not sore? Let carry you,”
“I can do it too, Silvio! Please, Maria…”
Two handso-looking ghosts made entirely out of blazing red fire looked at charmingly, and they wanted to carry for so reason…
“Ugh, no guys, I am fine as I am,” I said.
“And who do you think you are?! If there is soone that would carry her, it is of course ! Not so puny forr vampires,” Said Lucifer.
“What? That would be , not you! I am Master’s favorite!” Said Partner.
“F-Favorite?!” Exclaid Eraldine in shock.
“C-Calm down… Nobody is my favorite. I love you all equally,” I said.
“W-What? Then you don’t love enough…?” Asked Partner.
“Eh? No, I an…!” I muttered.
“You three! Stop at once! Maria requires a bit of personal space,” Said Silvio.
“Indeed!” Said Francesco.
“Who are you now?! her bodyguards?!” Shouted Partner while raising an eyebrow.
