Power

As Eredeti looked towards one of the bug souls he slowly floated over it. As if it was yielding itself it slowly lowered, as Eredeti touched his hand on it he could see the vague and unclear memories. It was as if a heavy fog clouded its mind however Eredeti didn't care for its memories instead he hungered for its power. Although it was a very small amount Eredeti didn't mind, what could he expect from a low level insect. As Eredeti felt the power fluctuations he slowly guided it towards himself as the center and it worked! He could feel the low amount of power transferring to himself as if it was refreshing and soothing. Eredeti felt the power within himself increase although miniscule and low it was still enough to satisfy him.

Eredeti looked at the announcement in awe with a face full of satisfaction as he looked at the other souls greedily. 'It worked! It really worked, now lets take a look at the skills'

------------------------------------

-Durable carapace

-A carapace able to receive small form of attacks

Eredeti looked at these newly acquired skills with a sense of excitement, however when he saw Hive follower he was bit disappointed. 'This seems pretty useless' As Eredeti wondered what he should do with this rather worthless skill he heard a ring sound.

-----------------------------------------

-Sacrifice skill Hive mind for increased mana reserves?

-----------------------------------------

'What! I can do that?' Eredeti didn't even need to ponder on this and immediately agreed to the prompt.

'This seems extremely useful' Eredeti thought as he grabbed his imaginary chin in satisfaction. Eredeti had no regrets sacrificing the ant soul and immediately looked towards the other Chimaera souls with greed. Eredeti immediately went over and grabbed another soul one after another he absorbed all their power all though mid way he felt a sudden migraine as his soul devouring increased. Eredeti however chose to ignore it for now and continued on his rampage of sacrificing all the souls he had left to strengthen himself even further. After a while Eredeti finally calmed down and floated there with satisfaction feeling the new found power surging through him.

However the orange light he saw was slightly larger but not by much making him a little confused on what exactly makes it grow larger. While absorbing the souls he also noticed that the amount of stats he was receiving every time was slightly decreasing every time only increasing when he absorbed the higher quality souls. 'I Honestly expected more skills, but what can a couple of bugs who have little to no conscious have' Eredeti thought disappointed. Eredeti decided to directly sacrifice all of the Hive mind skills for he had no use for such a thing.

- int + 9

'I guess it's time to leave this place for now' Eredeti said to himself as he returned to his body.

When Eredeti woke up he looked around and saw he was still in the bedroom he slowly got up and yawned, Eredeti then walked to the window and opened up the rather large curtains as he looked up in the sky he saw the sun still high in the sky. Eredeti then walked to the side of the bed and started to slowly put on his armor, making him look like a knight of the kingdom of Zoldivolk. The first thing he did was to first check his status

Eredeti looked at it shocked although he had saw all the stats he received it still came to a shock to him that he got so much stronger so easily. 'Now lets see what these new skills can do shall we' Eredeti thought to himself as a flash of a sinister grin appeared on his face. However Eredeti wasn't dumb he wasn't going to try his new skills in the room he was granted although it was in a mess currently at least it wasn't destroyed. So Eredeti decided to once again visit the barracks as he quickly left his room and hurried along. This time not a single knight stopped him although it was still bright outside he thought someone would ask him of his plans or destination. However everyone who some him naturally assumed he was a knight from his gear and no one ever expected him to be Eredeti. As Eredeti reached his destination he walked in and saw a few knights casually drinking and eating while talking as no one payed him much mind. He walked out to the courtyard to see numerous knights practicing and a few of them sparing with a few even using magic along their sword swings. All of these knights looked pretty strong in Eredeti's eyes as a slight thought appeared in his mind 'Why don't I ask for a spar?'. 'Hmm I guess I can ask for one after I've finished my experimentation' Eredeti thought as he walked to a corner of the court yard that was relatively empty.

He slowly activated his first skill Leap as he felt a sudden burst of energy enter his legs and as Eredeti felt the sudden burst he stomped on the ground making a small dent on the ground as he swept forward nearly 20 meters crossing nearly a quarter of the court yard. Of course his movement wasn't unnoticed as the knights nearby saw him nearly disappear into a flash and stopped a little far away. Although the skill leap wasn't uncommon however this was only one of the few times they have seen someone leap so far away as the only other times they've seen such a thing was only when a high ranking knight would use it making the knights who saw this instantly think that it was a high ranking knight who was currently training.

As the knights looked in awe Eredeti turned back around and used leap once again appearing at his original position. 'Oops although Kanied told me not to expose my powers I just can't seem to listen to him when I need to try out all these new abilities, But it should be fine after all their are no shadows to hide in the middle of the day right?' Eredeti thought to himself as the nearby knights slowly walked over towards him. Eredeti heard them clapping a few times as one of them walked up to him "That was rather an impressive display of power your lordship" The knight said 'Lordship?' Eredeti thought. "Please pay me no heed I am simply refreshing my mind and body. I apologize If I bother any of your sessions". "Please your lordship there is no need to apoligize we weren't bothered by you at all, instead it has improved my tenacity to improve further more." The knight said

"Oh if that is the case then continue on with your training maybe this influence of mine will lead you to greater heights" Eredeti said. The knight who was speaking with him took off his silver and blue helmet placed it in between his arms and placed his hand in the air "Your lordship, My name is Alex Xardar, May I know of yours?" The knight with blue eyes and sweaty blonde hair said. "Of course, you may call me Eredeti" Eredeti replied as he took the knights hand and shook it. "Thank you, Sir Eredeti now if you would excuse me I must continue with my spar, with this sudden inspiration I must train even harder to achieve greater heights" Alex said. "Of course Alex as I must also refine myself further" Eredeti said as they walked the opposite way of each other.

After the short encounter with the knight Eredeti prepared his next skill slash as he walked up to a straw dummy and activated it he felt his mana covering his sword similar to wrath yet different. As he slashed a slight crescent shape was left as the straw doll supported with a thick wooden post was slashed in 2. As he looked at the dummy with satisfaction and realized that although wrath weapons would increase the general ability of an weapon slash would increase its sharpness and infuse it with mana to cause a more clean and deeper cut as if the mana would guide the sword and cause adverse effects to the one who was striked with it.

As Eredeti realized this he wondered something 'What would happen if I applied my mana attribute into it instead of using just pure mana?' however before he could continue he felt a strange presence and immediately felt like he was being watched. 'It seems Kanied was right however if someone was watching me before why couldn't I sense them? Is it because of the increase in my stats?' Eredeti could only question himself. As Eredeti stopped using his magic and abilities and instead decided to just practice purely the sword to familiarize himself with the sword form he learned not too recently.
