Chapter 471 Growing Stronger With Blackie And Naming The Skeletons
—–
FLUOOSH!
As Elayne prepared a small meal to eat with Blackie and Rose, she absorbed Gustaf’s enormous Magic Crystal. It had so much Mana that even after having been shattered, it held an immense power. If she were to absorb it all, wouldn’t it feel like a slight waste?
Such a powerful Magic Crystal could also be used to make quite the wonderful equipment. The thing is, Elayne didn’t seem to care, she was easily predicting only edgy-looking items would come out of fusing it with other equipment.
However, much like an enormous meal, she was unable to eat it entirely, and had to devour it by small bites slowly. Nonetheless, she was feeling slightly greedy, and only left a few smaller fragments, she used one of these fragments each for the three skeleton’s evolutions, left a big chunk for Blackie to eat when he were to wake up, and then the other for Rose.
As the stew she was making using Great Tusk meat and other vegetables she grew in Arcadia’s farm, she finished her powerup. The mysterious voice spoke into her mind once more, gracefully telling her how strong she had grown.
[You have absorbed a tremendous quantity of high-quality Mana, Nether has been purified.]
[Hundreds of new Spiritual Runes have been inscribed within the Magic Circle.]
[Your Magic Circle has improved from Tier 2 Rank 1 to Tier 2 Rank 5.]
[Several New Spells have been created: [Wide-Area Exorcism] [Light Blade] [Light Arrow] [Sunshine Veil] [Light Spirit Call] [Nature’s Domain] [Terrain Dominion]…]
[Your Magic Power has improved tremendously.]
[Your body can now acquire a Physique.]
“It’s done!” Elayne felt like she was overflowing with power.
Jumping four Ranks in just a few seconds was insane, and she felt she needed as much power as she could if she wanted to complete the Dungeon anyways. She had also made sure to engrave several spells that would come in useful in fighting Undead.
“Phew, with this it should be enough, though getting myself a second weapon might be a thing I should consider now, Irene you’re strong but changing your shape really tires me out.” Sighed Elayne.
“Geez, how can you say that when we slain that baddie so amazingly?! Geez girl!” Sighed Irene while feeling slightly sad. “Well, how about you give me more upgrades then?”
“Hmmm, there’s nothing in materials that could be used, and the magic crystal is not compatible with you, sorry- Oh, look at this though.”
Elayne grabbed a gigantic Black Axe, which was the weapon Gustaf was using. It was already a Magic Weapon and seemed to have the Dark and Death Elements, when Mana was imbued into it, the giant axe would generate a powerful Phantasmal Flames Aura that could even deal damage to a target’s soul.
“Wait are you serious?! Don’t replace me with that!” Irene complained.
“Geez I am not replacing you with anything.” Elayne sighed. “Fine, I won’t use anything else, but I’ll save it just in case.”
She quickly saved the Axe inside her Inventory, while she noticed the three skeletons looking at the weapon with admiration.
“Boss can’t we use it though?”
“It is just fitting for us!”
“Also you have yet to name us…”
“Right…” Elayne sighed. “Well, for now use the Wooden Swords I can create for you, they’re specifically made to deal with Undead. I’ve personally enchanted them with Spirits and also used a Potential Cube in each one of them.”
“Aww…”
“B-But the big axe…” 𝐞𝐨𝘃𝐞𝐥.
“Aw man…”
They were rather disappointed.
“Well, maybe if you behave well I could give it to you guys one day.” Elayne said. “Anyways, if you don’t remember your names then… You’re Skellington, Skellrus, and Skullosus.”
[You have named your Familiars Skellington, Skellrus, and Skullosus]
[Their Hidden Potential is now Fully Unlocked.]
[Further Evolution Options are now available upon growing strong enough.]
[The Ability to digest Magic Crystals is now possible for their growth.]
FLAAASH!
All three of them began to overflow with magical power, just by being named they had unlocked a great deal of power.
“Uuuoh! A-Amazing! Oi, this is great!”
“Holy shit! Boss you’re the best milf ever!”
“These names are just like what we are. You’re so smart with your naming sense!”
Elayne started to giggle a bit at their comedic responses. It seems that with these wacky skeletons around she won’t have much time to feel down.
“Cronch, crunch, nom…”
However, the sound of crunching something echoed around the camp, as Elayne realized little Blackie had woken up and was snacking on his reward. He ate the whole thing completely and then started overflowing with the power he had acquired.
“Blackie, you’re awake!”
“Meoow!”
FLUOOOSH!
Out of the blue, Blackie gained a few gray stripes around his tail, and then a tiny black horn growing on his forehead. His claws had also become red.
[Familiar: Blackie has evolved into Tier 2: Rank 4 Demonic Shadow Black Cat.]
[Magical Power capacity has greatly improved.]
[Physical Capabilities have greatly improved.]
[New Spells and Abilities have been learned: [Shadow Embodiment], [Shadow Transformation], [Shadow Fusion], [Demon Aura], [Bloody Claws]…]
“Oooh, you got much stronger, dear! Congrats!” Elayne was tremendously happy, seeing her little black cat turn out this OP was a nice thing to behold. She quickly held him like she usually did and caressed his little head, while Blackie started purring and rubbing his face on hers.
The three skeletons were watching filled with envy, as Blackie sometimes gave them a cocky smile.
“T-That damn cat, he’s got the boss love all for himself!”
“Not fair! Please spoil me too boss!”
“I never thought I would be envious of a cat in his whole life- I mean death!”
As they made so much noise, Rose slowly woke up.
“Nnngh- Ah! W-What happened? Huh?! W-Where is… that big guy?” Wondered Rose. “Huh?! Skeletons?!”
“Rose! I am glad you’re alright. These… guys are my new familiars. Please just… ignore their dumb words. They’re useful though.” Elayne said apologetically.
“O-Oh, that’s… interesting. Nonetheless, it seems we won… Sniff.” Rose began smelling something tasty. “Oh, are you preparing food? It smells so good…”
“Oh, so you can eat normal food too? Then let’s eat right away, it is ready.” Elayne said with a smile.
While Elayne and Rose were taking a small break before continuing their search, Rita and Mark weren’t having it so easy, as both were fighting powerful Mid-Bosses…
