Chapter 2088 Recording
"That's not fair!" Kentucky couldn't help but complain as he felt his own Domain Power decreasing by a lot.
Roan reappeared after using the Shadow Air and the Enhancement ability far from where the Blade Feather hit his afterimage. "It has nothing to do with me if all the idiots insist on clashing Domains against each other. I would rather make them weaker, like you." Right after, he disappeared again.
From there on, Kentucky had to basically rely on his immense defense and the use of his Dark and Light Divine Armor, which greatly improved it. Nonetheless, it was basically trying to cover the sun with a spider web. His injuries increase little by little, forcing him even more on the back step. "Alright, alright, I admit defeat."
Roan's Death World immediately disappeared, allowing Kentucky's Kawa Blade Domain to work normally again. Well, it didn't matter since Kentucky retrieved his Domain as well, ending the battle. "Sigh... fortunately, not everyone is like you."
Roan put his White Scythe away. "Try not to be so overconfident next time." It was basically a lesson to Kentucky. If Roan wished to, he could have finished that battle faster. However, that would force him to try to actively kill Kentucky. Killing someone is always easier than defeating them. You have no need to hold back.
"Your Death World has truly become fearsome," said Rean when Roan returned to his side. "Seems like our combo will work as expected."
Roan nodded. "That's why we followed this route. Since I can't get rid of you, I might as well try to make use of your abilities."
Rean didn't even want to rebuke those words and focused on the Soul Gem Orb. "Forget it. Let's buy the upgrades first before we go out."
Without wasting time, the twins touched the Soul Gem Orb and got the reward list open for them. Their initial idea was to buy the fusion of three energies, Soul Power, Divine Origin Energy, and Stelar Energy. That would cost them 1000000 Destiny Points. However, they quickly noticed that a new option appeared after the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm finished upgrading to level 5.
[Time Acceleration - 1000000 Destiny Points]
"What?!" Rean and Roan were taken aback. "It's the thing Hex, Sister Orb, and I have been working on!"
Sister Orb immediately confirmed. [Yes, it is definitely the same. While the three of us worked on Hex's runes, I've been inputting them into the system while it was offline. After that, we could work on it after the system was back online. The idea was to have the system create a new reward related to time. It worked... I just didn't expect it would work this fast.]
Roan didn't care how it worked, only the outcome. "Then answer me straight. How much faster will time become if we buy this thing? From what I can see, there doesn't seem to be a level for this upgrade, which means it is already the option's final form."
[You are correct. Now that the system is back online, I can tell how it works. Basically, the amount of time acceleration depends exclusively on how much Divine Energy the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm can use. Simply put, the more Divine Stones you dedicate to the function, the faster time can become. Rank Seven Divine Stones have Divine Origin Energy inside them, so the effects are even better.]
The twins nodded, already expecting something like that. "This is good. We just so happen to have a lot of Rank Four Divine Stones lying around. How much faster can time become with them?"
[That... I don't know. The information isn't available since the system itself hasn't used the ability. You will have to give it a try. It might be a hundred times, a thousand times, ten thousand times. But it might as well be two times, half a time, or even lower.]
The twins looked at each other and reached a dilemma. The Energy Fusion Option costs a million points, but so does the time acceleration. If they buy one of them, they will be short 200000 Destiny Points for the other. Who knows when they will receive another quest now that Destiny Points don't come randomly...
However, their minds cleared up a few moments later as they understood that the choice was obvious. "What use will be there if we aren't alive? For now, returning to the Realm of Gods and searching for the next fragment takes priority. In that case, the fusion of three energies will definitely give us a great boost in power. Besides, if we recover the Universe Foundation Fragment from the Floating Islands of Time in the Minokawas' territory, we will get enough Destiny Points to buy the Time Acceleration."
[I have no complaints to make about this choice.] Sister Orb also agreed that staying alive was the best. [It's another layer of security for us all.]
The twins once again sent their order into the Soul Gem Orb.
[All Energies and Conversion Upgrades Fusion - Only one level available - 1000000 Destiny Points]
[Confirm Purchase?]
"Yes!" The twins instantly answered.
[Destiny Points: 1833215]
[Purchased confirmed, initiating the upgrade.]
Right after, the twins' bodies suddenly felt extremely hot. Well, not only the twins but so did Celis and Kentucky, who were now connected to Rean and Roan. When the twins fused Divine Energy and Soul Power together, Celis and Kentucky also got the benefits. This time, it wasn't different.
Inside their bodies, new meridians that didn't exist before began to take form. They connected every inch of their bodies, Dantians/demon cores, and the brain where the soul lived, creating a new type of cycle between the three. Well, none of them could tell, though. That's because all four of them were contorting like worms on the ground due to the pain.
"Holy shit! Just kill me already!" Kentucky couldn't help but scream. Too bad no one would do such a thing for him.
[Oh yea... quite a satisfying view. I better record it while I can. I wonder what Calina and Qia will think of it.]
"Fuck you!" All four of them still had the energy to curse Sister Orb, though.
