Chapter 603: [603] Frigid Lineage.
Affinities: Frost (SUPREME), Chaos (SUPREME), Space (Exceptional) [Gravity], Shadow(Exceptional), Darkness (Exceptional), Death(?).
His affinities...not only had they grown, but they also seemed different. Foremost, His frost affinity had gained a different color. Previously, the (SUPREME) part of it was always written in pale white, but now it shone like gold. His chaos and space affinities were the same. There were three new additions, those being darkness, shadow, and death.
Darkness and Shadow were of the exceptional grade, the same as his spatial affinity, They had no special colors...but death... Death was different.
Not only was it the only one that no grade, not even primordial. But it was the one that seemed incredibly out of place in the system window.
It was not only glitching, expanding and contracting, but it seemed out to be constrained, struggling to break free. It was strange seeing the normally stable status window fail to contain it.
It seemed...the affinity of death didn't like how the system portrayed things, or something else entirely.
He moved on, focusing on the other things. He had gotten two new titles, [Son of Lanesha, Supreme of Frost] and [Prince of Lanekia, Home of frost dragons.]
They were pretty self-explanatory. Alan found it nice to be prince of a planet many times larger than Earth. It just rang a good bell in his brain.
Next, he focused on the new abilities he gained. He focused on the [Frost walker] first.
[Frost Walker]
[Description: Allows its wielder to traverse any surface as though it were solid ice, regardless of its composition. The ability coats the ground beneath their feet with a shimmering layer of frost, rendering it frictionless and enhancing speed and agility. They can effortlessly slide across terrain, scale vertical surfaces, and perform gravity-defying leaps with grace. This power also grants control over cold temperatures, enabling the creation of icy pathways or freezing adversaries on contact. This is the ability that gave Lanesha her name, The Frigid Queen. Your power in a frigid domain is unmatched.]
"Damn."
He shivered when he almost muttered the dragon's name. Cursing to himself, he vowed to never say the Supreme of Darkness's name at all. He felt terrified, and another unknown feeling emerged in him, closely linked to reluctance, hesitation... But it was not like the one back on the planet Lanesha invited him too. It was more like...fear or wariness.
Shaking his head, he inspected the one belonging to shadows. It had a similar name to Frostwalker.
[Shadow Walker]
[Description: Grants its possessor the uncanny ability to meld seamlessly with shadows and darkness. By stepping into areas of dim light or darkness, they become virtually invisible and intangible, allowing them to move undetected and bypass physical barriers. This power extends their senses, enabling them to perceive the world through shadows and sense the presence of others nearby. A shadow walker also manipulate shadows to obscure or deceive foes, creating illusions or distractions. The Master of this ability, Supreme of Shadows, Kulak was adept at infiltration, espionage, and swift, silent strikes from the veil of darkness.]
The ability was great, but...useless to him. Not only did he have the perfect camouflage that was his Spatial Distortion, but he also was not suited for assassination. Or rather didn't really have as much of an experience with it.
He preferred to be direct, and the fighting style he was taught was meant to be direct in facing his opponents, not attacking them from behind. Assassination...was simply not his forte.
He also knew Kazikato had this very ability, he had been told about it before. It suited Kazikato more than Alan, but it still didn't mean he would neglect it...
He would probably find a way or two to make it useful.
'I feel like I'm missing something.'
He felt as if he was missing something when he read the ability, but unable to pinpoint it, he figured better to ask Kazikato later. He focused on the final ability he had gained...the one
related to Ariel herself.
[Death.]
That was the name...
