All arms have ratified all the vessels present, it was time for the partial awakening of each of the arms, Liam then starts to speak, "its time to draw power from your arms, first of all, you need to know of some histories, your sacred arms originally aren't meant to have any power within them, but because they were crafted from the blood of some gods over time they absorbed power from the Err stones, presently we have no Err stones, so the awakening would only be partial, you can then release the full potent of the sacred arm you wield, first things first, pick up your sacred arm and sense the power that runs in it."
The candidates did so, the fairy already understood the power and so was ready for the next step, Gaius also looked like he was ready for the next step, Toda on the other hand didn't understand what Liam meant, he looked at the sword and then he went to his interface, he selected skill, he scrolled through with his eyes and then he saw a skill, 'Insight', he selected the skill to know more on the skill, 'insight a skill that gives a clear vision and a precise description of the magical presence around,' Toda smiled saying it was just the one he needed, Toda then decided to purchase the skill, a message popped up, 'purchase common skill( insight) for 7cp,' Toda purchased the skill and decided to use it. "Use common skill(INSIGHT )." A message then appeared 'reading magical presence of precise target--------' another message then appeared, 'reading complete, capacity gauged, magical estimation— 70%, Destructive Class—Catastrophe.' After seeing this Toda froze in shock, seeing the immense aura gushing out of the sword he was scared so was everyone else after understanding the weapons.Liam then started talking again, "I like the look on your faces right now, it means you understand the power you'll be charged with controlling, one wrong move and anyone of you here can level an entire kingdom, three catastrophe class Arms and four calamity class is no ordinary weapon, originally the first step was for you to understand its might, now to connect you to the arms, as you know inside each and every one of the this weapon is a magical power even greater than you, to wield this power you have to be careful, first of all I'm guessing most of you here know how to use the link skill which lets you push out your magic like a thread, it'll be the magic we'll be using, first of all use link to push out you magic, once you're all done we'll proceed." The whole group except Toda understood what Liam said and were already at it, Toda on the other hand didn't know the skill, he went to his interface and saw the skill that Liam spoke of, but the skill was in a basic class, Toda had a thought of purchasing the skill and then a message appeared, 'purchase basic skill link for 3cp' Toda accepted, "use basic skill (LINK)." Toda could feel the magic coursing through his vein and flowing out of his palm, every else was also ready, Liam then spoke again, "you all look ready, now with your other hand release the seal on the sacred arms with the skill shatter, which is also a basic skill, after you do that, the magic in will gush out and will try overwhelm you have to keep the flow relaxed or two things could happen, either you get possessed by the massive intake or you die, all you have to do is keep the flow relaxed until the magic from the arms gets absorbed into you." After hearing this, all the candidates started the process, Toda searched his skill bank for the shatter skill, but he couldn't find it, he then surfed for an identical skill, then he came across a skill, (Force Activation), he selected the skill to know more about it, 'unique skill (Force Activation) a skill that awakens a dormant magical power and also dispels seals.' Toda smiled saying it was exactly what he wanted, he purchase the skill with 10cp, "use Unique skill (Force Activation)." Immediately Toda's hand glowed and suddenly the weapon glowed, drawing attention to him, after that an abnormal presence could be felt, everyone except the fairy and Gaius stopped to look at Toda, suddenly magic thread larger than Toda's gushed out of Eros, immediately they connected the magical presence could be seen eating up Toda's magic, it got larger and larger and then Liam told him to relax the flow, Toda then thought since his magic is connected with that of Eros, he could control the flow with impact scale, "Use Unique skill(IMPACT SCALE) output—10%."After the command the wave and flow of magic could be seen reduced, though it was reduced it wasn't reduced to a thread form it was still gushing showing that 10% from Eros was a great deal of magic, but Toda wasn't bothered because he could handle the flow at 10%, when he calmed the flow he drew the magic from Eros into him, when it got into him he felt immense power and then he got a notification, 'celestial mana absorbed, Mp, Hp and Cp increment has began, summation will be complete in 20,50,70---' Toda then got another message, 'Your status has now increased,HP—5000MP—6000CP—400You have also acquired new skills.'Everyone in the class experienced a lot of changes and was all in shock how metal hold powers beyond their peers, Liam then spoke, "by the looks on your faces you have all noticed the surge of power within you, let me simply explain this power boost, the catastrophe class arms triple your whole stat, while the calamity class doubles it, you can confirm this at the guild, the power boost will remain as far as your connection with these arms remain, but once it is cut you will return to the way it is, but if you keep levelling yourself up while the connection remains it will be added to your normal stat, for every 1000 stat gained you have 3000 for catastrophe and 2000 for calamity, and finally our deal of the day, after this you can all go home and prepare for moving out in 10days, for creating a connection with your arms, you have gain five skills for now, (Awaken, Activate, release, unbound and Call), you all know what the awaken is used for, the activate skill will set your arm in combat mode, use the release after you have gotten your Err stones to unleash your arms true potential, unbound will put a seal back on your arms and the call will draw your arms to you no matter where you are, now try the awakening this last skill and we'll call it a day."Toda saw the skill Liam spoke of, tried awakening his arm but it was a no show, he then looked at others and they were all wording out as though they were talking to their arms, Toda then tried it, while holding the hilt, he put the other hand on the blade and worded, "Sacred Arm EROS awaken."The sword glowed and then it was as though it shed, revealing a black coloured blade a golden hilt with a dragons head on it, on one side of the blade 'EROS of lust' was inscribed, while on the other side 'OATHBREAKER' was inscribed everyone's arm was awakened successfully, Liam dismissed them with the message of them meeting in 10days, when they got out night had fallen, Toda was contemplating where he'd sleep and then Gaius comes dragging him home with him.It was day again, with Toda waking in the Henmer Manor house, he couldn't help but think on all the happenings of yesterday, being the new skills he had gained just from unlocking a sacred arm, he thought how important basic and common skills were, while thinking about it he remembers he hasn't still used any magic, he went to the skill option, he selected the magic section, he saw some skills but when he selects them, a message popped up, 'skill cannot be used at the moment, connection has not been established yet.' Toda didn't understand what it meant by connection wasn't established since he already obtained his spirits he should be ready to use magic, he decided he'd ask Gaius about it.Gaius on the other hand came out of his room already dressed up, he asked the maids to prepare a fast breakfast saying they'll be heading somewhere; Toda was heading down from his room when he heard Gaius say they were going out, he walked up to him and asked where they were headed, Gaius smirked,
Richard flaunts his hands saying, “Come at me when you’re ready.” Igon takes offence after the statement was made, he rushed at the prince and slashed his scythe, while the scythe was landing Richard took a back flip, he landed and taunted Igon with a bold yet annoying laugh, “Hahahaha, was that you at your prime, you couldn’t even best an undead skeleton with that move, i would like to try out my skills on you, but i won’t fight you with a heavy weapon, I’ll hold back and reduce the size.” Igon took up his scythe and smirked, “You really want to see me at my prime, I’ll give you a tip, sacred arm Hades, special skill one, Hells Blaze.” After that call, Igon swooped down his scythe, with the swoop came a wave of black flames, Richard looked shocked, he threw his axe in the air, stretches his hands, “Prince of ice, your presence comes with a chill, he who stands in front of the dammed, i summon the Doors to hell, COCYTUS, god of rivers grant me your power.”A weird presence could be
Both women got into the circle to start their combat training, before they began a strange man entered the cathedral, Richard recognized him and walked towards him, “My prince, i greet you, i bare you all message from the emperor, he summons all heroes to the imperial kingdom, immediately, a coach has been provided for your journey, it’ll take you two days to get to the imperial kingdom, the king asks that we leave now.” The party stood amazed, an audience with the Emperor of Khetis was no joke, they halted the ladies before their bout, Gaius laughed hard saying he was really looking forward to Elayne fight, Richard on the other hand was happy the match never held, the party left for Khetis with the messenger from the empire. One day passed and they stopped at an inn in a fief of one of the nobles in the empire, while they were there, they handled their basic necessities, Gaius and Richard went to check the perimeters of the fief, Toda and the rest stay back resting, day broke again
After being dismissed from the selection, everyone went their ways, the heroes sent out their party telling them to meet up the day of departure, they intended using their remaining days in the empire to rest up, Toda on the other hand had gone through a lot, he thought how he landed into a game finding out it was in fact real life, and the fact that he could die with the most fatal of attacks landed, then witnessing the power Gaius and the others displayed during their training, he told the team to meet up the following day. It was day and Toda was ready to head out, he was stepping out of the castle when he encountered Gaius, he was about avoiding him, then Gaius spoke, “you heading out to train?.” Gaius asked smiling at Toda, Toda couldn’t avoid the question but he didn’t reply, “You’re a strong man Toda if not the strongest around, you just have to believe in yourself and let out that power, don’t over work yourself and I’m here if you need anything.” Gaius said as
After the delegation, Toda told his party to train anyway they deem fit, he left the group, moving alone he remembers the advice Gaius gave on conversing with his spirit, he stumbles upon a lake, he remembers that his first encounter with a spirit started with a lake and if he could recreate the scenario he might be able to converse with one of his. He walks up to the lake draws his blade, cuts his hand and drops blood into the wave suddenly the echo of the blood drop could be heard repeatedly, he closes his eyes and just thought of spirits, he didn’t know what they looked like at first, he then thought on the shapes of the orbs that entered his being, he could differentiate magical waves by their colours thanks to his appraisal skill, he thought of the first two to emerge from the lake, a green and a red, immediately he had those thought, he could hear two voices, a male and a female, the female spoke.“I have been summoned here by you.” Toda looked for who is talking, he c
“Master, what happened, we felt an immense magical presence, are you okay.” Audrey said with worry written all over his face, Toda thought in his mind, ‘is all this worry for me or for their safety, i know i gave a big speech on trust, but come on you can’t just be this loyal all of a sudden.’ Toda smiled to Audrey, “Sorry if i startled you all, i was trying out a little magic, i didn’t know it be that intense, besides you’re all supposed to be training.” The whole party had the same stare on their faces, they all laughed it out and turned back to go train, Toda was still feeling weak, he then got a message.-----------------------[NOTE][Magic section unlocked][All Magical Skills Obtained Can Now Be Used] [New skill acquired, special/spontaneous skill—(hyper-instinctive skill enhancement)]-----------------------Toda thought on the name of the skill, he knew what spontaneous meant but he didn’t understand what the skill did, he opened his interface and selected the skill w
Toda opened his eyes and it was day, but he felt somewhat weird, he knew where he passed out, but he found himself in a handmade tent, he stood and found that his injuries were all healed up, he thought to himself, 'I can't believe I'm all healed up, with my mp still depleted my Self— Regen skill can't really do much work for me, not forgetting what am i doing in a tent, i passed out beside the lake.' Nana stepped into the tent, "master Toda, you're awake already, we were worried out of our minds, you and Audrey went all out, not even sparing the other." Toda laughed and said, "Well what can i say, i owe you all this much, and you'll have to be strong to help me on my quest, I'll make a date for you and i soon enough." Nana was as red as a strawberry after hearing the word date, while they were talking, Hunter and Milara walked in, "Master, you're awake!" Hunter screamed the moment he saw Toda, Milara on the other hand seemed as though she'd kill Toda if they were left alone,
They all ate and were filled up, Toda had asked Nana to heal up the injured knights, after they rested he called for them, "look, i don't have many things to ask you, seeing that you're healing and need time to rest up, just three questions, the first is, How'd you get tangled up in this, where are the rest of the holy knights and finally, what is that being controlling them." One of the knights stood up, he walked over to Toda and knelt down, "I thank you sir for saving us, you see, as the holy knights were summoned by his highness, 20 knights were put in charge of the holy church to protect it's holy relics, but not quite long after the knights left, a man appeared at the church claiming to be a priest of a kingdom far east of Khetis, he said he needed to see our priest who was on a self journey to sanctuary, we tried to reason with the man but it was fruitless, he kept on insisting, one of the knights who was present ran out of patience and threatened to kill the man,
