Chapter 174: Farewell, My Lovely Skills~

...….

....

..

'Did I die for real now?'

As my consciousness gradually came back, a dark void of nothingness greeted my vision.

Even though the feeling of having no fleshy body made me slightly uncomfortable, but since this isn't my first time, I can handle it just fine.

'Not the first time… wait! What is this feeling?!'

In the beginning, when I feeling déjà vu while seeing the familiar situation, I began to recall something in my memory.

But, before I could successfully recall it, something strange happens in this dark void as it also began to affect my consciousness.

At the same time with the void which was beginning to tremble, some unknown energy gradually gathered in this place.

As this strange situation happened for a seemingly a long time, the darkness in the void suddenly being sucked, as a bright blue crystal gradually formed in the core part of this weird place!

Zaazazzazaza~~

[Brat! Stop daydreaming!! Do you want to truly die?!!!] *???

When I looked at the blue crystal mesmerizingly, all of sudden, a familiar old voice suddenly echoed.

'Fenrir?! Is that you?!

W-what did you said just now? Die? Did I not dead yet?'

[Stupid brat! If you not doing something about your swelling soul crystal, maybe your existence truly disappears and you can die for real then!] *Fenrir

And so, the voice echoed once again, replying to the question inside my thought.

Even though I could hear his voice, but when I observed the surrounding void, I failed to find Fenrir whereabout.

'It seems he can't show up himself for some reason…

Tte-

This is not the time to think about the useless thing! Fenrir?! What do you mean by soul crystal?! Is that blue crystal that suddenly formed just now is my soul crystal? Why it looks more like a magic stone of a monster?'

[Listen, Kid.

I don't have much time to communicate with you in this place, so please follow the instruction that I about to tell you now!

You can doubt me and ignore it, it's up to you, but if you want to stay alive you better listen to what I about to say!

Just forged this in mind, If you die, I who was still residing in your soul will die together with you…

So just think that all the favor that I about to give you now is for my own sake!] *Fenrir

Judging from the seriousness of Fenrir words, it seems I'm 

in a bad situation right now.

At this moment, I began to hesitate if I should hear what that Old wolf about to say or not.

However, as the clock continues to tick, my hesitation didn't last for a long time!

When I observe the mysterious blue crystal that is still swelling and keeps growing as it keeps sucking the darkness in the void in madness, an eerie foreboding feeling suddenly growing inside me.

I didn't know it for sure, but I could tell that all Fenrir told me about the blue crystal as my soul crystal in danger is true.

'Fenrir, tell me what is my current situation, and why this thing suddenly happens inside this strange void?!'

[the place you're in is not an ordinary void, it was your sea of consciousness!

I don't know what kind of bad luck curse that haunts you, but you're now evolving in the wrong time and place! 

If this thing happens outside of the dungeon, the system that was installed in your being will help you assist to make you evolve smoothly,

but since your body right now was out of reach from the system authority area, thus this situation happen!] *Fenrir

'Sea of consciousness? Evolving…. Right! the familiar feeling when I successfully behead gorgon and about to lose my consciousness before! That is the feeling of level up to max level and progress on changing into a high tier job?!

So, I already reached a max level before I know it..'

[Anyway, all this thing happen partly is your fault too!

You're abusing your cheat skill too much, copying skill here and there recklessly.

Just so you know, by you copying a skill, it's mean that you use your soul strength as a bargain, as you contain that mentioned copied skill temporarily with your soul capacity as the cost.

However, there's always a limit to anything.

With so many skills that you already gathered, now your soul power almost full to the brim!

And I don't know what kind of reward did you get outside, but right now, something from outside giving you enormous strength that your soul failed to handle, if it continues like this, your sea of consciousness will surely wrecked and cause you to die and disappeared forever!!] *Fenrir

'Then, what should I do?!'

[There's no other choice, right now you have to evolve fully into a full Immortal…

But there must be some sacrifice to be made…

if it was the usual, your formed soul crystal should be formed when a mortal changed into the highest level job known Grandmaster or Grandmagus to crystalize their power.

But as your power already reached that level a long time ago, like I just said before, if it continues formed uncontrollably like this it will only swell up wildly before it explodes after failing to crystalize the nonsense power and status you have that was coming from the enormous number of your skills and titles…] *Fenrir

[Please listen carefully here, Right now, you have to absorb that enormous energy from the countless skill and titles you have, changing it into raw soul power to strengthened your crystal!

By doing this, your crystal will change into a god seed…] *Fenrir

'That sounds ridiculously too good to be true…

So, what is the price?'

[You will lose those skills forever…

But I think, losing it, in exchange for turning yourself into a god is a good bargain.

Looking at your property, you have a great affinity with thunder.

So don't worry, at least you still have some ability to make you survive outside.

Anyway, when you turned into a god, you basically became omnipotent in front of the mortal outside, but of course, you can't interfere and slaughter them as you please, if you do that there are some negative karmic points you will accumulate, and if you accumulate it too much, you might end up by getting some terrible curse in return.

That's how the balance system of this Universe work] *Fenrir

'Damn it! how can I bear to lose those skills?! Especially the Absolute copy and Online Shopping skills! Is there no other way?!'

[This brat! Stop blabbering and complaining and just do as I said!! I don't have much time to communicate with you like this!

Is not like when you turned into a god, you will become strengthless or anything!

If you're lucky, maybe you can get some more useful and powerful ability rather than those useless mortal skills that only can be used at the mortal realm inside the God and Goddess system authority area!!] 

Hesitated for a while, I ended up sighing in defeat and decided to listen to Fenrir.

'it's partly my fault that I ended up in this situation… it couldn't be helped then…'

[Now, follow my instruction, concentrate and focus on your soul crystal...

And so, Fenrir began to guide me step by step.

With his help, I began to control my soul crystal and rummaging the energy from the accumulated skills and titles in my sea of consciousness.

If I want to describe it more clearly, these accumulated skills and titles look a lot like bubbles that floating around in my sea of consciousness as they connecting into each other like a neuron system.

The difference is, unlike bubbles, the one contained inside was collected energy rather than just air.

Changing them into soul energy actually is not that hard.

What I need to do just disintegrated them with the authority power that my soul crystal begins to form.

Destroying them one by one, I began to absorb them and strengthened my still swelling soul crystal.

As the soul power from the skills keeps accumulated, the swelled soul crystal began to stabilize and gradually became clearer.

The previous blue muddy color gradually became brighter as it changed to be more transparent.

Inside the soul crystal, a spark of lightning energy suddenly began to come out as it ignited.

Bzzt! Bzzzzzazazaz!

The small lightning, little by little started growing, and gradually enveloped the transparent blue crystal with it.

...

.....

... now, the last two skills remain, I know you have some kind of sentimental value with them… but you have to let it go now] *Fenrir

At this time, hearing what Fenrir said, I began to reminiscent about my memory of when I first coming into this world.

When I was still have nothing, these two skills are the one originally accompanied me in my journey here.

Absolute Copy and Online shopping skills.

You two…

….

..

....

As the two skills began to disintegrate,

'As Expected, I can't! sorry, Fenrir! I don't want to destroy these two skills!'

[This crazy brat!!! Are you out of your mind?!! 

sigh…

there's nothing I can do then...

I also began to out of time to interfere with your sea of consciousness like this.

farewell~

I don't expect that I can communicate with you in a short time like this, maybe there's more chance that we both can meet each other once again....] *Fenrir

As Fenrir's voices gradually disappear to the end of his words, I began to stop the process of disintegration of the last two skills left inside my sea of consciousness midway!

When I thought the skills will not be destroyed and started to recover as they used to be, all of a sudden, something that made me flabbergasted suddenly happen!

Bzaazazazazaza!

As the void began to tremble, all of a sudden a serene lightning energy who just sparking around on my soul crystal suddenly creating havoc!

Bzaaa!!!

Like a tongue of a frog who tried to get its prey, two blue lightning suddenly strikes the two skills that I previously trying to destroy!

Engulfed by the blue bolts of lightning, I can feel the two accumulated energy that was forming the skills, began to tremble as the shell that keeps it together suddenly began to have a big crack on it!

Judging by the strength of the lightning strikes, a terrible possibility suddenly appeared in my thought,

Crack!!

As the two shells began to split, it's suddenly shining brightly, seemingly trying to explode.

'NOOOOOO!!!!!!'

….

...

…

However, just as I'm still seeing this scene, all of a sudden, my consciousness begin to start leaving this place, which made me powerless and could only scream in agony!
