When Adrian heard a thud sound from his back and learned it was from Marlon, he was not surprised because even he would faint from the skill details that he read.

Skill: Void Demolition(Death Energy Half)

Tier: Divine

Type: Synchro Skill

Effect: Commune with the powers of the God of Death, Abbadon, to gather all Death attribute energy in the surroundings and form it into a sphere of astronomical energy. Once sufficient energy has been accumulated, combine this energy to its other half Void Demolition(Life Energy Half). When both halves combine, fire a beam of concentrated null energy in a straight line of about 100 meters and 10 meters wide. This skills deals 10,000% of both users physical and magical damage as true damage. Gains 10% chance to execute enemies under 20% Health Points. Cannot be disrupted when channeling but both users are still vulnerable to damage. Cannot be used when the other half has not been channeled together with the user. Both users must be at least two meters apart in order to cast.

Cooldown: 30 days

Cast Time: 30 minutes

Mana Cost: 90% of Maximum Mana Points of both users and 30% Maximum Health Points of both users.

Restrictions: Obtain Third Status Awakening

Adrian told Marlon to send his skill description if they have similarities but it seems the skill is a bit different. Adrian even slapped Marlon's cheeks to wake him up of his fantasizing of being something like a last boss character that he has been murmuring a few seconds after his collapse.

Skill: Void Demolition(Life Energy Half)

Tier: Divine

Type: Synchro Skill

Effect: Commune with the powers of the Goddess of Life, Gaea, to gather all Life attribute energy in the surroundings and form it into a sphere of astronomical energy. Once sufficient energy has been accumulated, combine this energy to its other half Void Demolition(Death Energy Half). When both halves combine, fire a beam of concentrated null energy in a straight line of about 100 meters and 10 meters wide. This skills deals 10,000% of both users physical and magical damage as true damage. Gains 10% chance to execute enemies under 20% Health Points. Cannot be disrupted when channeling but both users are still vulnerable to damage. Cannot be used when the other half has not been channeled together with the user. Both users must be at least two meters apart in order to cast.

Cooldown: 30 days

Cast Time: 30 minutes

Mana Cost: 90% of Maximum Mana Points of both users and 30% Maximum Health Points of both users.

Restrictions: 150,000 Devotion Stat

Adrian smiled wryly at the skill. The skill might be overpowered and deals true damage but it also came with lots of restrictions. Adrian's restriction is that He should have his third stat awakening while Marlon's was the 150,000 devotion stat that would more or less be attained at the same time as his third stat awakening also. They have a divine tier skill that they are years in the making to even use but nevertheless, the two treated the restriction as a challenge and the even bet each other on who would lift their restriction first.

" Look at me my friend for I will become a grinding machine for the next 30 days.Ha..ha..haa." Adrian declared boldly.

" Well, you need to catch up buddy. I am already ahead of you by twenty levels. Hehe." replied Marlon in a "I am better than you tone".

" I think I'll return first to the Paradox Planes. What are you going to do?" asked Adrian.

" I'll jump straight into investigating the Church of Life and pick up missions along the way. You know two birds, one stone sorta thing." Marlon answered.

" I will probably clear some field monsters and go into dungeons to familiarize myself with my new skills. If you need any help you can call me. I will be sure to show up since I kind of owe you one for helping me here." Adrian said with conviction.

" Don't stress about it dude. What are friends for? I will head out first then I am a bit excited in accomplishing this quest you see. See ya later!" Marlon said while saluting and then heading towards the portal as he disappeared from Adrian's vision.

Before Adrian left he read a few system notifications that he passed by because it did not tell him about his new job class skills or details.

[ Due to your skill Daemos Core that doubles your status point inquisition, you will not have bonus status points that is given during job advancements.]

[Requirements for next Job class advancement shall be given when player reaches level 150.]

Adrian thought that this would happen because double status points in itself is overpowered. He did not get the bonus 100 status points but he did not fret over it. It was only about 30 or so levels that he needed to grind anyway to get them. In the end, he had permanent double stat points while others only get them during job advancements. The locked job class advancement quest was a load off of his mind because he does not want to be pressured in completing it since he has a lot on his plate currently.

Will others of the same race as I am get the same treatment when I unlock the Daemos race? this was the question in Adrian's mind. Adrian was now left inside the boss dungeon and sighed before tearing up one of the teleportation scrolls that he was given.

Adrian and his soulbounds reappeared before the Paradox Planes and he hurried towards the portal site in order to test his new skills to familiarize himself with it. He picked an area that was not infested with other players and was five levels higher than him because he has a new goal and that is to become a greater demon. He looked at the quest that was given to him by Ascalor to see his progress.

●Quest Log●

Awaken the Persona(Ongoing)

Ascalor wants you to become stronger so that you could rise to the top. He sees promise in you so do not fail him.

Clear Condition: Become a Greater Demon

Reward: Epic Spatial magic skillbook

Requirements:

a.) Reach Level 50

b.) Condense your Daemos Core

c.) Defeat Enemies 5 levels higher than you(31/100)

He also has another quest that slipped his mind because he was busy with his class advancement quests. This was a bit urgent due to it being a time limited quest.

●Quest Log●

Ancient Heroes III

The twin gods, Gaea and Abbadon, are pleased that you manage to get one of the three relics used to seal the breach made by the corruptants. Now they want you to find traces of the Undead King and find the group of acolytes that plans to revive him.

Clear Conditions: Find traces of the Undead King and acolytes.

Reward: Weapon Enhancement Stones x10

The quest did not have a time stamp on it but Adrian knows that if someone was faster than him to find the clues and if they manage to find all of it then this quest would be deemed as failed. The dark god that possessed Argent seems to be irrelevant to the Undead King event and is not part of it since it did not trigger this quest. Adrian calmed himself and managed his breath to focus.

" Hooh! Breath in and out." Adrian murmured and then thought to himself, " There is no need to rush. Rushing often leads to mistakes. If the quest vanishes then it means I am not yet good enough and should train even harder to cover what I lack."

Adrian then went to a spatial fracture that lead to a field called Thrall Plateau where there are trolls in the level 40s all the way to level 200 depending on how deep you venture in the field area because it is vast. Adrian used his skill 'Glamour' and polymorphed his soulbounds before jumping straight into the spatial fracture with them.

Meanwhile in a cave somewhere deep inside a mountain, a cocoon made of wriggling tentacles that numbered in about a hundred. A young man that was dressed in a black robe with unknown symbols written on it and the symbols pulses eeriely in red light. He took of his hood revealing his silver colored hair and his eyes with black pupils and red cornea's that made him seem like an absolute villain that must be defeated by humanity. The young man then spoke in a tone that seems like what horror movie directors use when a person is possessed by an entity.

" Look at your pathetic state Vel'drix. It is funny looking at you in that state." the young man said in a mocking tone.

The cocoon seemed to have reacted to the insult and the tentacles vibrated and formed a makeshift mouth but crazily enough, the mouth that formed spewed words.

" You dare mock me when you are just using a proxy to even just speak to me. Who is the weak one here?! When I regain my strength, I will be unstoppable!" the tentacle mouth declared like it was a fact.

" I did not come here to fight. I came here to form an alliance with you since you need help and I need your help. Think about my offer when I return in the following days." the young man uttered and he disappeared with a puff of black smoke.
