Spending Spree
In the large branch where he was laying, Alex was excited as he wanted his future enemies to feel despair because of his newly attained power. Alex closed his eyes and took a deep breath.
He opened his eyes and smiled as he already organized his thoughts.
"To continuously increase my magic stats, I don't need to turn off my sharingan but I'll make my Mangekyo a hidden trump card, just in case."
With such thought, the Mangekyō rotated and reverted back into a three comma like pattern. As soon as he stood up, Alex suddenly felt something ominous.
Looking at the direction of the 17th floor, Alex muttered.
"For some reason, I don't feel comfortable about it. It felt like a challenging fight is about to come."
Alex didn't know the exact words to explain this but it might be his intuition warning him. Closing his eyes, Alex came into a simple conclusion.
"Well if something bad is about to come, I think it would be better if I prepare myself. I might be just paranoid but its better to be prepared."
Alex thought as a system message appeared in front of his eyes.
[Legendary skills required 20 skill points and 1,000,000 points to upgrade. Proceed?]
As he could feel that a crises was about to come even though he wasn't so sure, Alex decided to strengthen himself. Alex knew that no matter what or how worse was the crises that was about to come, it doesn't matter if you're strong enough to overcome it. As he still had many points, Alex proceeded.
Of course, his choice was his Dragon Heart.
He's already stronger than an average level 2. What if he adds to increase the level of Dragon Heart to that? Alex was internally going round in circles with excitement.
[The level of Dragon Heart has risen.]
Alex could feel every cell in his body being filled and strengthened. It was also at that moment that a flash of light emitted from his body, creating a small pillar of golden light.
His heart beat fiercely and contracted in focus. Although his heart was already strong enough, the sudden increase in level made the tremendous power to leak out from him. The Dragon's Heart was indeed an incredibly strong substance.
If not for his Perfect Status Immunity, his vessel could not contain the pure energy from the Dragon Heart, he would explode and die on the spot.
However, it did not happen.
Also as time went by, the pain would become a little bearable and his internal circuitry started to circulate his magical energy to a point where he could move again.
Then the pain will became weak enough, to make Alex raised himself up. Fortunately, Alex wasn't suffering from any pain which he treated as a blessing. Trusting his Perfect Status Immunity, it seemed to do the job as expected.
Alex, who raised his body, examined his condition with a perplexed face.

[Ruler of Fire]
Rating: Legendary
[This title is one of the reasons that dragons are said to rule over the elements. Dragons with this titles are said to be fierce like a raging fire.
* Absolute control over all fire properties.
* Immunity to all fire type attacks.]
Alex felt like his body was floating. It was an effect of increasing the level of his dragon heart. He felt like he was going to fly up in the sky. However that wasn't the end.
[Dragon Words]
Rating: Legendary
[Dragons are the master of magic. Power dwells within the words themselves. Reinforces the user's words with the user's mana, which compels the listeners to act or be acted upon based on those words. Anyone unaware of how to defend against the words would be helpless against the user's words.

* When used, Magic consumption will be tripled.]
[ Permanently doubles the efficiency of magic. ]
The efficiency that was amplified by 6 times by the level 2 Dragon Heart when using magic was doubled.
'Crazy.'
In addition, even the magic power exceeded the capabilities of a normal level 3. If you look only at his magical power, it was a level that could be trusted that he was a level 4 magician. Comparing him to the others, it wasn't normal.
Overall, Alex was very satisfied. With Mangekyō and the upgraded Dragon Heart, he was much more stronger than his previous self just a moment ago
Alex was imagining how strong he would became in the future. With the system, he might became the strongest existence, greatly surpassing his previous self before he became a forgotten god.
Speaking about the strongest, a sudden thought came into mind. Alex became curious about the most expensive merchandize in the system. If it was the most expensive, then it was guaranteed to be the best among the rest and the most strongest.
Browsing out of curiosity, Alex speedily scrolled the shop function until he reached the last item listed in the last page.
[ Black King's Legacy ]
[ Price: 999,999,999,999,999 Points. ]
Looking at the points required to buy it, he was greatly surprised. Staring at the amount, this was totally impossible to buy and he was sure of it as he couldn't imagine that he could save that amount.
"Well its the best anyway, so what can I do."
Alex dejectedly murmured. If Alex remembered correctly...Black King was a forgotten god like him. However Black King was a special existence. Alex couldn't really remember many details about the Black King but he was certain about one thing, he was a being that possessed absolutely gigantic amounts of power superior to the gods or any beings that came into existence.
The exact details are unknown, but his name and very existence was turned into a forbidden subject and all mention of him was forbidden by an oath.
Knowing that this was totally out of his reach, Alex returned to the section of legendary rated skills he had saw earlier. He looked at his remaining points and he still had 18,505,000 points.
It may still be a lot but when he saw the amount of the Black King's Legacy, Alex sighed as it wasn't even at 1% of it. Looking at his points and all the legendary skills that he could buy, Alex murmured.
"Maybe I should buy 1 legendary skill for the last time."
His eyes scanned all the list.
"Well every skill is so good and I can't decide on what skill I should buy."
Alex was left in an internal dilemma. All of the skills were into his liking and he was tempted to buy anything but in the end, he could only choose one.
He also doubted whether he should really buy anything and instead just save his points for future uses.
"Well in can't be helped."
As he couldn't choose anything, Alex sighed and decided to randomly buy a legendary skill with closed eyes. This might be foolish of him but all of the legendary skills were top notch so there would still be no regret.
[ Gluttonous King, Beelzebuth ]
[ Price: 18,500,000 Points. ]
Randomly pressing his fingers with his eyes closed, Alex gulped as he was somewhat tensed on what he had bought.
[ You have purchased the skill 'Gluttonous King, Beelzebuth'. ]
[ The skill, 'Gluttonous King, Beelzebuth' has been obtained. ]
Thinking that he had pressed already, Alex slowly opened his eyes and was shocked on what he had witnessed.
