"Oooh, I finally got it!" I celebrated.
Not only was my Cooking Skill at Level 7 by now but I even got an Apprentice Chef Skill at Level 7 already! Isn't it pretty amazing? My cooking tasted so good perhaps because of this. Well, I am also pretty good at cooking, I cannot keep denying the fact.
After our al, we decided to take a break while I watched over the faraway Ants colonies. They were all Abyssal Ants, slowly farming Miasmic Crystals, Demonite, and eating it. Ant Queens should be there as well, I suppose. Unless there's the sa Ant Queen as before, in such case, it would be the final boss again.
Well, if things repeat themselves, I'll simply do the sa and absorb the Fragnt of the Evil God while taking over the Dungeon Core. It shouldn't be such a complicated task all things considered. But for now, I decided to rest, leaving everyone else to sleep too.
Ti went by slowly, as I concentrated my power into my soul, making it move around more and more. Each ti I leveled up, I was able to sense this "Aether" better. It was a special Soul Essence, the more I moved it around, the better it reacted to .
"Hmm… You're getting better at controlling Aether, though you'll need more power to utilize it properly." Tyr showed up at my side.
"Oh, you've been spying or what?" I sighed.
"It's nothing like that! I am rely saying that." Sighed Tyr. "But controlling Aether at the level you're doing so is very rare, well done."
"Huh, I don't think I need your praise…" I said while trying to ignore him.
"Tche! Don't get so cocky now. You barely know any Aether or Mana Circulation Techniques." He sighed.
"Techniques?" I asked.
"It is sothing we use to maintain this power within our bodies and reinforce it over ti… But you need at least 200 Aether if you want to learn any of them." Tyr said.
"Co on teach sothing!" I complained.
"Don't get cocky! If you overuse Aether too much, your soul might end up being destroyed." Said Tyr.
"Eeeh? Is that the only thing? Then I doubt that's a problem, I've had my soul destroyed a couple of tis already, I just regenerate it back, no biggie." I laughed.
"Huh… You're awfully confident… Fine." He laughed. "But don't bla if your soul's destroyed…"
Tyr suddenly inserted into my head so sort of strange knowledge. It felt a bit disgusting when he did it, but I had no other choice but to accept his knowledge. In an instant, I learned the right ways to move Mana and Aether correctly, and I even was able to comprehend sothing called… Elental Law.
The depth of darkness, the cycle of death, decomposition, turning back to the soil, and being reborn… The darkness that fills the void, and the light that illuminates it… Woah, this is pretty deep. But I think comprehending Laws is like understanding the elent you use a bit more.
"Then I can manipulated Aether and Mana of my Elent like this?" I wondered, as Aether and Mana erged from my soul, waving around with gray, black, and dark blue colors, so hints of purple and red could be seen as well.
The energies fluctuated rapidly all around, beautifully so. It was as if a fla was burning inside of my soul, energizing my very being and turning it more… real. It was strange, yet I felt like I was slightly connected with the cosmos, maybe only a bit more.
I felt like I could keep pushing so more, adding more and more power into this fla, as it kept flickering and growing larger… But then, an enormous pain reached my soul!
CRACK!
And then it began to shatter! Just like Tyr said, this was the worst!
Ouch! Ouch! Okay, I'll stop!
I quickly stopped before getting shattered. It was hurting more than usual as well, as if a "deeper" part of my own self conscious was being destroyed.
I better not play around too much. I guess I owe him an apology… But now that he's looking at with eyes wide open, I don't know what to say.
"Y-You…" He muttered in surprise. "Incredible, were you able to light then Ember of Divinity?"
"Ember of what?" I asked while raising an eyebrow. "Ah, this little fla? Wait, it wasn't taphorical?!"
"T-This is… To think a being of such a low level could attain it… Your Unique Skills and… that Ultimate Skill too, must be the ones granting you such insane Soul Resiliency and Soul Vitality to be able to do this…" Tyr was surprised.
"Can you explain what you're talking about please?" I asked him "politely". "Also can you stop calling a "low level being" it is very rude!"
"Well but you're sothing like a low level being…" Said Tyr. "And the Ember of Divinity is the fla inside your soul, it is very small but you've sohow forced your way into having one…"
"Ember of Divinity? Is that what gods have?" I wondered.
"No…" Tyr said. "It is rely a stage of tamorphosis; it eventually evolves into… sothing else." Tyr said mysteriously. "Ah, I can't rember anything more than that, but don't play around with it too much. It might completely destroy you."
"Huh? That bad?!"
