Chapter 118: Gifts after Gifts

Kahn was still finding it hard to digest all the information he received from the system. This was something that even exceeded the previously gained S Rank abilities and skills.

"System.. Tell me the list again." spoke Kahn.

[The host has acquired the following abilities & skills :

Damage Reserve (S Rank) (PASSIVE) :

Allows the host to store the damage received from the physical and magical attacks and expel it in the form of aura burst.

Note : The host will be put under a weakened state for 10 minutes after the activation time ends.] listed the system again.

Every single one of these skills was a S Rank skill. And the majority were made to completely dominate the opponent.

Only now did Kahn understood how strong the demonkin clan head was. If not for 3 peak grandmaster assassins fighting against him together and using that Domain Artifact which also restricted the target's movement speed.. None of them would've managed to kill him.

Although Kahn did not see the fight with his own eyes, he could already imagine how intense and ground-shattering the battle must have been. He was lucky to not get caught in the crosshairs.

But this was just a book of the cover. The real treats were the new merged abilities.

"System, show me the merged abilities again."

[Following are the merged skills and abilities :

Sword Lord (S Rank) (PASSIVE) (Upgradable) :

Allows the host to create 12 swords made up of chaotic aura. Each sword can be moved and manipulated as per the user's will. The host can also use the Darkness element to create these swords.

Note : The current effective range is 100 meter radius.

Defense Shatter (S Rank) (ACTIVE) (Upgradable) :

Allow the host to bypass 50% of Defense of any defensive Equipment, Armor or skill.

Bladestorm (S Rank) (ACTIVE) (Upgradable) :

This skill is a combination of Rising Wind and Aura Blade.

Allows the host to create mana blades and launch them in a spiral and forward-moving attack for 30 meter radius. The host can also use the Shadow Blades as part of this attack.

Dark Lightning Strike (S Rank) (ACTIVE) (Upgradable) :

Combination of Darkblade & Lighting Flash.

Allows the host to merge lightning and Darkness element, two of the most destructive elements in the world in a single attack. The current range is 100 meters.

Note : This skill requires the host to slowly mix and balance these elements together and launch them as one merged attack. The efficiency and range will increase in the host's Mastery of this skill and increase in level and rank.]

Kahn's brain had been fried at this point.

The amount of OP skills he just gained were too damn high.

These skills were far more powerful than any of his offensive skills related to weapons he had so far. Even the Darkblade skill, his most effective long-range offensive skill paled in comparison.

He went from an Expert to a goddamm Sage.

Given the skills and abilities he just gained.. Kahn had already surpassed thousands of other Intermediate Grandmasters.

Sword Lord had just given him 12 Extra swords to use in a fight. And they could be made using the Darkness element as well. Which already had so much destructive and penetrative force to it.

In the future, if he managed to upgrade it.. Maybe he would be able to wield and control hundreds or even thousands of swords just like Byakuya Kuchiki from Bleach manga & anime.

Defense Shatter was without a doubt, the most critical strike attack he ever had.

Bladestorm was more like an upgraded and multiplied version of Darkblade. Because he could use multiple shadow blades in a tornado wave-type attack. Far deadlier and covered more area.

Dark Lighting Strike was the strongest one-shot skill he had. It was like his own version of Getsugatenshou just like Ichigo Kurosaki, the protagonist of Bleach.

And if he upgraded it even furthermore.. It could compete even against Sesshomaru's Demonic Strike from InuYasha anime, who could destroy hundreds and even a thousand demons with a single strike of his sword.

This was too much to process for a single night. Kahn then took out the core of this clan head and ate it. It was bigger compared to the Assassin's core.

Ding! Ding! Ding!

Multiple level up notifications rang in his head and the orange aura of the Demonkin erupted out of Kahn's body. It took Kahn a whole minute to subdue and assimilate this remaining consciousness as part of his own.

[Congratulations to the host for breaking through to Peak Grandmaster Rank!

Congratulations to the host for breaking through Grandmaster rank for Swordsmanship and Sword skills.

All sword skills and abilities will have a 50% increase in their damage output and effectiveness.

War Dominance has reached to Stage 3.]

Kahn felt a sudden sense of tranquility in his body. His sense sharpening and becoming even more accurate than before.

For the first time.. He could sense a faint energy in his surrounding. This energy felt like it was part of the nature itself and Kahn finally tapped into knowing its existence. This force was completely different than mana.

World Energy!

This was exactly the world energy that God of Darkness once mentioned to Kahn when he was in his soul form as Elric. Till this point, he only knew about the Mana and use it to raise his level by eating the cores and ores that were made from mana itself. But he still hadn't felt or came to know anything about the World Energy.

"Maybe after breaking through the Saint Rank, I'll be able to feel it more clearly." spoke Kahn.

Now all that remained for him was to check his new levels and stats. And also the contents of their space rings of course.

In a single night, Kahn went from Master League to the Champions League.

The Koi fish had become... a Dragon.
