46 ez

(A.n: sorry for last week i was too lazy to do anything)

I calmed down considerably and started thinking logically 'while i have little to no idea what my soul dying does it doesn't seem to be a negative thing since it doesn't feel like my adaptation is even trying to fight that change since i could feel when my adaptation strengthened my soul. Plus i can feel that my death aura has become slightly stronger and it even hurts me slightly less when i use it'.

I sigh 'this will become complicated. Now the question is should i tell this to rin? Hmm maybe later since he doesn't have any knowledge on souls or death at the moment since his practical memories got turned into a learning multiplier'.

I started walking inside the castle i wonder around for about an hour before i come a room that was guarded by the most powerful demons i saw in this place as of yet but they were still quite easy to kill.

Walking into the middle of the room i observe a crystal that had a small red worm creature trapped inside.

[Sealing crystal: a crystal specifically made to seal creatures of immense evil inside. This crystal is currently sealing a sealing worm.]

[Sealing worm: an alchemical worm made to contain a great amount of evil. If it were to die said evil shall take form]

After observing this i also could see many unknown enchantments but i could tell all of them were meant for sealing or trapping things.

I sent a message to rin.

[Connor: I think i found a way to summon wall of flesh]

[Rin: alright teleport me]

Soon rin appeared from a portal and i could tell that his mana has become like 50% purer.

Rin looked at the crystal and the worm inside before saying "so we have to destroy this and the boss will spawn?"

I shrugged with a slight smirk and said "well my instincts are telling me that something like that should happen"

Rin sighed while putting one of his hands behind his head while saying "i hate doing things based on instinct but 99 out of 100 times your instincts are right from what i observed"

"Alright is there anything you want to do before we start the fight?" I asked while activating my abilities.

"Everything is ready" rin said taking out his sword white sword that seemed to radiate even more holy energy then a few hours ago which made it have this white aura around it, basically the opposite aura that my blade exudes so i observe it since it also looked a bit different as it had one additional symbol carved on to its handle.

[Holy sword shirohi (10% unsealed):

A sword made from vurinite that has been infused with high amounts of holy energy. This sword was engraved with special runes that purify negative energy and consumes holy energy to grow stronger. This blade was later sealed by an necromancer demi-god after being severely hurt by it. This sword enhances any fire, holy, light and healing magic by 25% (when fully unsealed: 250%). Epic]

Huh last time i looked at it it only said that it was a great sword sword for killing unholy/corrupted entities.

"Alright i don't know how this ability will effect you but this is what will happen-" i started explaining how my 1 minute trial worked.

"I see but i think it won't work on me or anyone else in your party so let's start" rin said and i nodded as i started the trial but i didn't have to since i found out that i could turn back time by one minute as long as the cooldown was done but activating it beforehand makes it good since if i had my timing off and used it at 63 seconds it could be a problem.

Taking the crystal with the worm inside my hand used my death aura on it which quickly melted and killed the worm inside.

50 seconds left

As soon as the worm died a great amount of negative mana erupted into the ambient air.

Soon we saw that out of the empty space lumps of flesh began to appear and in a few moments we were surrounded by walls of flesh that had eyes and mouths all over itself and they were screaming as if they were in constant torture.

[Arch angel of seals (corrupted, extremely weakened, sealed):

The last hope to seal away great amounts of evil, this archangel was used as the last seal to protect the universe from great amounts of negative energy but due to being used as a seal for so long it was corrupted by the energies but due to it's holy nature instead of being strengthened it was weakened to the point of not even being able to use a fraction of a fraction of its original power.]

20 seconds remaining.

Me and rin nodded at eachother and started off with our strongest attack to see what it would do since this will be all reversed.

I used my signature lightning strike from me and my ring while rin used a holy spell that looked like a spear made from light.

I used my synthesis to quickly fuse the spear and lighting which created a spear made out of white lightning and as it flew towards our enemy, wall of flesh also cast giant fireballs of soul fire that rin dodged with some trouble while i effortlessly teleported away from the attacks.

Quickly our holy lightning spear pierced one of its eyes and i managed to see for but a moment a crystal inside the eye shatter and wall of flesh let out a scream as it's whole body seemed to turn slightly grey.

17 seconds remaining

"Eyes, weakness" i yelled out to rin who nodded and jumped to one of the eyes and cut it in half which made him see the crystal being shattered.

I teleported close to one of the eyes and a tentacle tried to smack me away but i just ignored it as i shot out another lightning bolt this time powered by only 2k mana and to my surprise it managed to destroy the crystal so i teleported and the tentacle missed.

Next i did the same thing as last time but with only 1.5k mana but now it didn't destroy the crystal so i next started using my sword and to my surprise it was quite easy to cut the eyes.

10 seconds remaining

Now i just started testing out different spells and saw that this thing seemed to have a weakness towards light, lightning, water and the holy element.

The time turned back and we were looking at the crystal with a worm inside it.

"So do you remember?" I asked rin who nodded and told me "those fireballs are dangerous and hurt the soul itself so i say i stay at range while you teleport around and use spells and your sword to deal damage and take his attention since it would be lethal for me to take on even one soul attack"

"Yeah i agree it would be quite bad for you to have to prestige back" i said and we waited for my cooldown to go away so that incase we failed to kill it or one of us died i would turn back time.

As soon as wall of flesh appeared the both of us send a barrage of spells at its eyes destroying half of them.

My mana was almost empty so i took out my sword and turned my left hand into a sword-like appendage while i teleported to the eyes and started cutting them to pieces while rin shot holy spears at wall of flesh.

It was a bit anticlimactic but after 2 minutes of fighting and basically no injuries the last eye was destroyed and wall of flesh turned into stone and crumbled to dust leaving behind only one item.

[Mana crystal (corrupted): a crystal made of only corrupted mana. Epic]

I of course took it into my inventory and soon the mana in the air got denser and denser.

We looked around and a sudden pulse of mana shot out and and we could see that it was destroying the surroundings and space seemed to distort bend and cracks started appearing all around us and a notification sounded in our systems.

[Forcefully destroying current game world, you and your companion/s will be thrown into the waiting room]

As i heard that i also could see that the cracks in space became black and started sucking everything like a black hole.

As i blinked i only saw white as i looked around and i also found rin looking around as well.

"Huh what's this waiting room" i asked my system.

[Basically an empty game save where there is nothing]

"I see well might as well see my rewards, oh since we are on rewards rin did you gain anything?" I asked rin while looking at my notifications.

"Yes i got the title archangel slayer and quite a bit of score for my next prestige and i even got a small amount of prestige points i can use now to upgrade anything i would want" rin said excitedly while assigning his talent points into something.

"What will you use them on?" I asked as i looked at the same title the both of us got.

[Archangel slayer:it is 50% more effective to use fear against holy creatures, evil/negative creatures feel 50% more respect towards you]

"Well i increased my talent for research and crafting" rin said while closing the system windows and i started looking at my rewards.

[Opening loot bags...]

[Book on sealing magic (500% sealing magic learning speed until it becomes tier 3, 200% learning speed until tier 4), 2 milion coins]

I guess sealing magic will be good later on and i basically doubled my net worth which is good i guess? 'By the way if i go and kill the ender dragon i should be able to get a bonus for that quest right?' i thought with a slight smile.

[Sadly it seems like you had to kill them both in the same starting world for you to be able to complete that but now you can only get the reward for killing wall of flesh]

'damn, alright give me the rewards' i thought with a slight frown from the unfortunate news.

[Rewards: +10 holy affinity, random system card (copy card)]

'let me guess it let's me copy any power, skill or ability?'

[Yes and no for example you won't be able to copy rin's prestige system or any of its abilities but besides systems or their powers you can copy anything that is a perk, skill or racial ability]

'So can't i copy rin's regression talent?'

[No that was a byproduct of his system or at least that's what i think since the card can't respond to that talent or maybe the talent is too good but i think it's the former]

'ugh well i can live with that now i have to hope for some good world where i could copy a great power' sighing i continue 'what is the next world options?'.

[1. Eldritch contract online (A.n: made up world)

2. Mr.krabs overdoses on ketamine

3. Martial paradise (made up)]

I let out a short laugh and said "well it would be interesting to see a cracked out version of bikini bottom tell me about the first and second option".

Rin was a bit weirded out but i didn't elaborate even after 10 seconds of silence for the fun of it.

"Whatever..." Rin said while rolling his eyes as he started going over some papers from his inventory and started writing in them.

'so tell me about option 1 and 2'.

[The first one is about gaining power from contracts made by eldritch abominations...(A.n: there was a longer explanation of this game but connor wouldn't choose any world with eldritch abominations at least for now)

Martial paradise is a a modern world in the year 2023 with martial arts and knowledge on how to use Qi. One day all over the world square pillars size of the Eiffel tower made of an unknown material started falling down from the sky and all over the world 20% of people got a notification "you have the potential. Link established you are now a tower participant" and then below their status option a new one appeared {martial tower} which let them teleport to the tower where they could either buy techniques and items from the tower for martial points which could be either gained by fighting in the arena floor where you could either fight monsters or other tower participants. After three years other people who were not yet tower participants started getting notifications about becoming a participant.

That's the lore i got and don't worry, you will automatically become a tower participant as long as you put it into your bio when entering the world.]

'by the way can i create a bio for rin?'

[Yes]

'good' "hey rin do you know of any person with a good special skill or talent?" I asked rin who put the papers back in his inventory and looked at me with a raised eyebrow before saying "you got one of those copy cards?"

"Yes" i replied
