Chapter 1884: Choosing Stars & New Skills
?
The list was big, and the most expensive was also the most tempting to choose, but at the end I went for the one that provided the greatest specialization on attack power, what I truly desired.
[List of Astral Guardians you can choose for your Subss.]
[Guardian of the Cardinal Stars (Bonus To All Stats, Strengthens All ss Skills)] [Price]: [30.000.000 Score Points.]
[Chaos-Seeking Demonic Star (Overpowering Attack Power Bonus, Defense Ignoration, Destructive Performance)] [Price]: [25.000.000 Score Points.]
[Goat Mother Of Life And Protection (Greater Healing, Wards, and Barriers)] [Price]: [20.000.000 Score Points.]
[Tyrant of the Blood Sea (Strengthens Blood Element And Evolves It)] [Price]: [20.000.000 Score Points.]
[Neverendingly Curious Librarian (Grants Great Knowledge and Wisdom)] [Price]: [10.000.000 Score Points.]
[You have chosen the Astral Guardian: {Chaos-Seeking Demonic Star}!]
[You have paid 25.000.000 Score Points.]n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
[Remaining Score Points: 5.000.000.]
With just five million score points left, Andromeda said I could further strengthen whatever Subss I get with a new Subss Component.
And then, I saw another message.
It was him... or her.
[The Astral Guardian {Chaos-Seeking Demonic Star} res at you.]
[He says that your Subss is ready.]
"Oh? Is it?"
FLASH!
I suddenly felt a sudden ray of power reach me from somewhere and nowhere at the same time, impacting my body with immense force.
BOOOM!
Instead of hurting me though, it spread this new energy and power through my entire body. Which took the form as more of this "armor" I had seen before.
This time, this "armor" had the shape of gloves... ck and red colored gloves with red jewels embedded on them shaped as eyes.
The gloves also had long, ck ws...
Ding!
[You have unlocked a Subss through your Contract with the Astral Guardian: {Chaos- Seeking Demonic Star}!]
[You obtained the [Chaotic Alchemist: ] Subss!]
[Before obtaining a ss Skill, it is possible to spend your remaining Score Points and fuse the Subss with two more Subss Components, this will Rank Up your Subss even further.]
[Do you wish the Components to be disyed? They will also be provided by your Astral Guardian.]
Chaotic Alchemist, huh? That one I didn''t expect, what does it do?
Well, I''ll find outter.
"Alright."
I nodded, quickly epting, and then, a new list appeared.
Ding!
[You have decided to exchange 5.000.000 Score Points into Ranking Up your Subss by choosing two Stars!]
[Current Subss]: [Chaotic Alchemist: *]
[Your Astral Guardian is generating the Subss Components...]
[Generation Complete.]
[Each Subss Component belongs to your Astral Guardian''s Neb of Stars, being smaller Astral Guardians themselves.]
[Divine Weapon Creator: **] [Star]: {Merciful Demon of Cmity}
[Demonic Armor Maker: **] [Star]: {Starry-Eyed Specter}
[Soul Equipment Forger: **] [Star]: {Deste Maiden of the Nile}
[Spirit Synthesist: **] [Star]: {Fallen Spirit of Enlightenment}
"These are some weird names..."
So apparently Stars were what served Astral Guardians, they weren''t quite Astral Guardians themselves, so it makes sense they offer weaker powers.
Butbined with their main master''s Subss, something strong could be born, I hope.
"What should I choose?"
Andromeda watched the options.
"Definitely Soul Equipment Forger, so you can gain bonuses when making Soul Equipment, which is very important," she said.
"You''re right..." I nodded. "Alright, on the bag already. What else... we can pick another one."
Andromeda analyzed it again.
"It now depends on what you want. More Divine Weapons? Make a powerful Demonic Armor with tricks and curses and stuff? Or perhaps fuse your Spirit Creation Ability into the mix?"
she wondered.
"Mix Spirits into it?" I wondered. "Hmm..."
Divine Weapons, Demonic Armor, Spirit Synthesist...
It''s a hard choice between the three, but depending on this, things could drastically change.
I have to carefully consider everything.
Divine Weapons would offer me more attack power, which is what I want.
Soul Weapons... could be created, perhaps in masse?
Then there''s Demonic Armor, more protection from having my soul destroyed.
Though, I''ve got a lot of ways now, so I guess it is not as necessary.
Then there''s... Spirit Synthesist.
Add Spirits of all Elements and Shapes, of all Forms and Powers.
They had been rather weak recently, so I haven''t used them as much as before.
But with this, Spirit Creation could get a well-deserved boost.
"Alright, I''ll follow your suggestion, dear."
I nodded, selecting the two I had decided to merge into my new Subss.
Ding! [You have chosen the Subss Components: [Soul Equipment Forger: **] [Star]: {Deste Maiden Of the Nile} and [Spirit Synthesist: **] [Star]: {Fallen Spirit of Enlightenment}!]
[These two Stars have now be tied to your Sponsorship with the Astral Guardian: {Chaos-Seeking Demonic Star}!]
[Your Subss has Ranked Up and Evolved into: [Spirit Soul Equipment Forging Chaotic
Alchemist: ***]!]
[You learned the Active Skill: [Chaotic Spirit Soul Alchemy: ***: Level 1/100]!]
[The Level of your ss and Subss are shared, meaning that you don''t need to level them
up separately.]
[You gained +10.000.000 to All Stats!]
"It''s finally done... At least this part." I sighed in relief, feeling the new power dwelling within me. "I never expected this process to end up being this long, but I''m grateful it''s
over."
"Yeah, now the only thing left is using the three items," said Andromeda. "And you must use them now because you won''t be able to use them outside, as I had stated previously, Drake."
"Alright, I know, I know, I''ll use them now and-"
[The Star {Deste Maiden of the Nile} has noticed you''ve chosen her.]
[She''s very surprised... And grateful.]
[The Star {Fallen Spirit of Enlightenment} greets you with a gentle wave of his hand.]
[He says that their Astral Guardian might be a bit scary at times, but that they''re just all bark
and no bite.]
"Oh they send messages?" I wondered. "Ah, is that so? And I thought he was intimidating, I guess there''s nothing worry about then! Haha!"
[The Astral Guardian {Chaos-Seeking Demonic Star} screams!]
[He says that you mustn''t listen to his foolish Stars! They''re all immature brats!]
"Oh really?"
As Iughed, I quickly nced at the three items that I had obtained through the trial as
"bonus rewards".
