Ouuuuch huh, I leveled up a bunch of times. But still: ouuuuuch!
I lay there, groaning in pain. My entire body ached. It was the worst pain I had ever felt well, actually, that wasnt true. I had felt worse pain before. Like when I used [Manifestation of the Old Gods] for the first time.
I couldnt move for a whole day back then!
The pain I felt right now was quite similar. I raised my head, looking towards Daniel and Edithe. My companions were huddled over me with worried looks on their faces. I tried to give them the best reassuring smile I could, only to wince.
Im fine ouch.
Edithe sighed, walking over to me. She helped me up and carried me on her shoulder as she sighed.
Dont force yourself, Salvos. You did a good job. Im amazed you were able to defeat that Primeval Demon by yourself.
Well, I didnt do it alone. I had Helena Warshade and Orgaf with me! But yep, I did great, didnt I?
I tried to laugh. And I did. But it hurt, so I grimaced in-between every other breath. I looked back towards Ertos as Edithe brought me to a [Healing Mage]. The dome encapsulating the perimeter of the city was gone the [Archarachne]s Grand Skill ended the moment it died.
The entire sphere collapsed, and the web untangled itself. The crimson threads faded away into specks of red dust, taken by the wind. The horde of [Aranea] accompanying it was dead. And so was the [Wildmaster Fiend] manipulating them and the army of Legions surrounding the city.
We had won. Ertos had been taken back. I glanced towards the adventurer army. Mori Gladius, Faith El, and Crocus Merryster led them into the city. They marched past the broken, crumbling walls of Ertos as Helena Warshade and Orgaf waited on the other side.
Even with the [Archarachne]s Grand Skill coming to an end, the sub-ritual didnt return. It had been interrupted when the wild Primeval Demon created its domain, cutting off the giant pillar of light that reached for the sky. And the pillar was still gone. There was no rift in space I could see with my eyes, nor were there any abrasions in this plane I could detect with my spatial senses.
The ground was still made of the familiar white rock that pervaded the Netherworld. However, when I looked up, I could see the blood-red sky slowly fading away.
You really did a good job.
Daniel walked up next to me, helping me from the other side. I flinched from the touch at first, but welcomed his assistance. The [Hero] gave me a nod.
I was worried for you. I was afraid you wouldnt be able to do it without our help. I shouldnt have doubted you or your Grand Skills.
I smiled back in return.
It was only one of my Grand Skills that helped. The other is still on cooldown.
Wait, howd you conjure up your Divine Essence, then?
Daniel blinked. Edithe peered at me curiously as well. I explained.
Well, I guess all that training with [Manifestation of the Old Gods] has finally paid off. I can use my Divine Essence even without a Skill now, even if its
I gestured at myself. Edithe and Daniel exchanged a glance. They spoke at the same time.
Right.
I shook my head as I finished.
Anyway, I knew [Radiant Slash] wasnt enough to defeat the [Archarachne]. So I infused my Divine Essence into the attack just for a little bit to deal the final blow.
I was also pretty sure that maybe [Wisdom of the Old Gods] had something to do with it. Previously, I thought that the General Skill only gave me a boost to my [Wisdom], but now I realized it better attuned me with my own divinity. If I had to guess, it was the reason why I had even been able to use [Manifestation of the Old Gods] in the first place. And now, I pushed it beyond its limits, even going as far as to level it up twice, to use Divine Radiant Slash to win the fight.
While I was glad it worked out in the end, I wasnt going to grow reliant on this ability. It was more of a last-ditch effort than anything due to the severe repercussions that came from using it. Honestly, it would just be better to wait for my [Divine Essence of the Daeva Cambion] Grand Skill to recover rather than risking my life with this maneuver. It worked out this time, but in the future, if I somehow failed, Id be dead.
Just rest for now.
Youll probably be out of commission for the next few hours.
Daniel and Edithe had said as they brought me to a [Healing Mage]. I tried to protest.
Wait, cant you guys just give me a healing potion? What am I supposed to do here?
The [Healing Mage] cleared his throat as he looked over me.
Unfortunately, Ms Salvos
My name is Salvos.
I glared at him. The [Healing Mage] nodded.
Right Salvos, a healing potion will only worsen your condition. The problem isnt the physical damage youve taken. In fact, it almost seems like your wounds are already healing. A result of a healing Skill?
He raised a brow at me, and I nodded.
I have [Rest] and [Weaker Regeneration].
Right, right. And added on top of that is a natural heightened recovery rate thanks to your [Vitality] at your level, then most of your injuries should be gone by the end of the hour. But the problem is the damage youve incurred is to your soul itself. It is the equivalent of suffering from mana poisoning, but with your essence.
Huh
I blinked a few times. Edithe and Daniel nodded, walking out of the tent.
You heard the man!
See you later, Salvos!
I watched them go.
Wait, what am I supposed to do until Im fully recovered?
I asked, but they were already gone. The [Healing Mage] shrugged.
Sleep?
He suggested. And I glared at him.
Absolutely not!
--
In the end, I decided to have a nice hearty meal while being treated by the healers. They had fetched me rations and someone even found a fancy dish that had been stored away in a Dimensional Storage Box. I rejected it all. They were disgusting.
Instead, I chomped down on the raw remains of an [Aranea] as the other wounded folks in the large tent stared at me with wide eyes.
Delicious. Nothing like eating your enemies after beating them!
I also decided to distribute all the Stat Points and Secondary Skill Points I had gained from leveling up. Unfortunately, I couldnt distribute my primary Skill Points since all my Skills were already maxed out.
But I was getting close to Level 150. I just had to level up three more times, and that was it. I could finally become a Primeval Demon!
I was incredibly excited for the options that would be made available. Although I wondered if there would even be that many options in the first place. I remembered hitting Level 100 for the first time after that duel with that cheater Zix. I had only been given three options to choose from.
Three.
It wasnt a lot. And I had a feeling that this time, I wasnt suddenly going to get four evolutionary options.
Well, whatever it was, I hoped it would be good.
I ended up expending most of my Stat Points on [Vitality], [Strength], and [Endurance]. And as for my Secondary Skills, I split most of my focus on [Draconic Fury], [Passive - Weaker Regeneration], and [Passive - Master of Material Manipulation].
By the time I was done eating and dealing with my Status, I had mostly recovered. So I got up and left the large tent, sweeping my gaze over the ruins of Ertos.
Alright, now to see whats going on out there.
