The golden network of the Essences he had comprehended were now extracted, and the runic constellations and hieroglyphs engraved on the Heart of Darkness transformed, turning it into a Divinity.
The Heart of Darkness thumped loudly, releasing faint shockwaves that splattered into Nial's face. He kept his heart and excitement under control, took a deep breath, and continued with the alteration of the Heart of Darkness.
Before completing the Cursed Divine Ability, he had to progress the transformation of the Divinity a little. That was what Nial had finally achieved after a long time had passed. The Heart of Darkness was a little bit smaller than before, with crimson and golden lines of intricate patterns covering the black and silver heart. The inside of the Heart of Darkness was filled with golden and crimson lines that could be found wherever Nial's senses reached.
The inside of the Heart of Darkness was overflowing with the runic constellations and hieroglyphs that had been dissected from the replications of his Ability Stigmas and the Essences of the God-grade materials he had used and absorbed. In the center of the Heart of Darkness, a blackish-silver vortex with crimson and golden currents flashing through to the surface could be seen. In the midst of the vortex, a Stigma had formed.
The Stigma showed the darkness, with golden veins spreading through its body and crimson eyes that looked like bright shining crystals. The darkness was non-corporeal and it had only one task…to devour!
Nial's Cursed Divine Ability had been formed and the process of its creation had been completed. The Cursed Divine Ability 'Devour' came into existence, and his Heart of Darkness was transforming according to the Influence of the Cursed Divine Ability.
The Heart of Darkness was slowly but steadily turning into Nial's Cursed Divinity. He didn't even bother about the creation of a storage room for Cursed Divine energy. After all, he couldn't care less about this type of energy. He had something much better!
He expanded the storage of dark energy inside the Heart of Darkness and created the possibility to create Cursed Dark energy, which he could store in his Sea of Darkness and his Cursed Divinity.
After the Cursed Divine Abiltiy had been completed, it took Nial a while before the Heart of Darkness finished its transformation as well.
It turned into the Cursed Divinity, Heart of Gluttony, and would grow stronger according to the power it had devoured and amassed.
Nial had yet to retrieve the Cursed Divinity and attach it to his body, where it belonged, but he could already tell that his strength would increase by leaps and bounds.
He had yet to unseal the Heart of Gluttony but the power that oozed out of the heart was already enough to show that the Cursed Divinity was a product like there was no other!
Nial was not too sure how much time passed since he started the creation of his Cursed Divinity, but he could feel that his Devils were still alive, indicating to him that everything was fine. If there were to be a big problem, he would feel it.
Thus, he was able to keep his calm and finish his ascension to godhood without encountering any problems. The Heart of Gluttony was retrieved inside his body. Nial sat down cross-legged and he re-connected the Heart of Gluttony slowly back to his body.
No matter what, the Heart of Gluttony was a part of his body. It had been inside his body for much longer than a century and it would remain inside him for a much longer period.
The compatibility rate with the Heart of Gluttony was a perfect 100%. There was no sign of his body attempting to repulse the Cursed Divinity. On the contrary, his body was actively trying to reach out to the Heart of Gluttony to reattach it back to it. Nial supported this by initiating the connection procedure.
This alone was already enough to cause power and vigor to sweep through his entire body. Nial could already feel that his strength was increasing. In fact, it was not only his speed. The circulation speed of his dark energy accelerated manyfold, his speed increased, his body became more resilient and his perception of the energies around him increased even further. His Innate Ability, Mana Sense, had been bound to the Odyssey seed in the past.
His Odyssey seed had evolved to the Heart of Darkness before it was used as the fundamental part of his Cursed Divinity. The Heart of Darkness turned into the Cursed Divinity, the Heart of Gluttony.
As for the Innate Ability Mana Sense, it evolved as well after becoming part of Nial's Cursed Divinity.
His Mana Sense became the Mana Domain, allowing him to spread his mana much further than ever before even without the use of Mana. Using Mana in the range of his control was extremely easy. But controlling dark energy was even easier.
However, the Heart of Gluttony had yet to be unsealed. Nial noticed major changes inside his body, yet the true power of the Heart of Gluttony had not even been unsealed.
If he was already feeling extremely powerful and possibly strong enough to fight some weaker Gods, right now, what kind of strength would he unleash once his Cursed Divinity was unsealed?
Nial created the Heart of Gluttony with the Cursed Divine Ability Devour in order to grow stronger at a ridiculous speed as well. He would grow stronger much faster than everyone, with the goal to refine his Cursed Divinity rapidly. Devour would provide the necessary energy to achieve this, and the storage of the Cursed Divinity, the Heart of Darkness, would become storage for all the energy that would consistently refine the Divinity and temper Nial's entire being, whether it was his body, mind or soul!
Sitting down cross-legged, time passed eerily slowly. Nial focused on the unsealing process of the Heart of Gluttony.
It had been fully attached to his body and was already working tirelessly to enhance his strength drastically. Nial had yet to find out how much stronger he had become, but the enhancement was definitely extremely high.
He was about to get much stronger.
He was about to officially advance to the realm of Gods!
He was a God!
