…

"Yin, go investigate the kingdom once again. Call all of the other shadow corps back and bring the air corps so they can have experience with an actual mission. Avoid killing anybody as this is just recon… no point in revealing ourselves now…."

"As you wish," Yin says while sinking into the shadows beside me.

As I see Yin disappear, I shift my eyes back to the status screen in front of me.

Finally, the final skill that I've been the most interested in…

[Throne World: Purgatory]

[This throne world takes place between heaven and hell where the souls of monsters are allowed to rest. This skill is almost impossible to receive if you assimilate skills as you need to meet other requirements, such as being a ruler over a group of monsters and needing 200 or more for your stats.

Upon activating this skill, a dark plane is spread beneath you. It goes on for infinity so reaching the edges are impossible, but in the real world, your throne room is really only 50 meters wide and not allowing any entrance from the outside.

Every monster that you had killed in your lifetime rests its soul within this throne room, and you can sacrifice them to kill anybody you deem a threat inside purgatory. And as mortal bodies don't trap the souls, they can't take damage from anything physical or mental as the opposing threat needs a soul-damaging skill to kill the monsters.

If you encounter somebody with a soul-damaging skill and force them into the throneworld, you better release them as the souls of the monsters are connected to you. So if their attack kills one of the monsters, your own soul will take damage.

Enough damage to the soul causes mana to die within your body, poisoning you. And even if you survive from dead mana circulating within your body, you will die from extensive soul damage, which can kill your body, eventually leading to real death.]

"Well… that's not that good. Does this mean I can't use this throne world against stronger beings? Though I can [Inspect] them, what if they have a skill that doesn't seem like a soul damaging skill… but it ends up being one?" I mutter to myself as I scroll my eyes just a bit farther downward.

I guess inspecting this divine mark, and divinity trait won't hurt…

[Divine Mark]

[This body modification is given to anybody who has received a divinity trait. This mark normally wraps around the neck but doesn't do anything even if you activate the body modification.

The mark is usually used to identify candidates of becoming a great spirit, allowing your presence to become more noticeable by the already existing great spirits.]

Huh… so it's not that special…

[Divinity Trait: Forbidden Magic]

[This divinity trait allows you to ascend into the great spirit of forbidden magic with 1 another variant path that can lead you to ascend into an even greater spirit.

This body modification pushes your proficiency with forbidden magic to the max, allowing you to learn forbidden magic instead of getting them from Nether or Aether stones.

Finally, you now have the privilege of sensing anybody with forbidden magic, and just by eating or drinking anything from their body, you can absorb their skills. But, the being that you want to absorb skills from must be dead.

*****

Additional Information:

Due to requirements being met, privileges have been turned into [Forbidden Magic: ******] due to already having the existing skill.]

I see… so that's why my skill evolved. Maybe I was supposed to get that original skill from this divinity trait, but since I already had it, it just evolved… now I'm more curious as to why I had this skill since the beginning.

Oh yeah, I should probably [Inspect] the blanked skill and title again…

[Forbidden Magic: ******]

[Partial Information: You can absorb the skills of any being that you either ingest or partially ingest.

Evolve more to discover other features and reveal the rest of the name.]

…

[Blessed by the ********* Spirit of *************]

[Partial Information: You have been blessed by one of the greatest spirits to ever exist. This title serves no purpose besides warding off potential threats caused by other great spirits.

Evolve more to reveal the rest of the name.]

Okay, well, that's not that helpful, but I guess I'll take it.

I should also [Inspect] my divinity domain as I think I have a good grasp on what it does, but there might be some other features that I'm missing… yeah, I should start inspecting my other skills again… I guess I'm not as good as I thought… is this what they call naivety… Nah, that's not possible. There's no way… I've always thought of the best process and never left out a thought that could benefit or potentially harm me.

tsk

[Divinity Domain (.05/100)]

[This domain is given to anybody with a divinity trait. When you activate a skill related to your divinity trait while this skill is turned on, it will react to it, causing the skill to be absorbed into the domain, filling your entire body and outside your body with the skill, but only in if the skill level is high enough.]

Oh, I get it now. So just like with running a skill through a weapon to get the full mastery, this is basically running a skill through your body, causing your body to take on the attribute and skill… literally becoming the embodiment of your divinity… interesting.

My smile grows wide as I turn over on my hammock while planting my feet firmly on the ground.

After stretching my limbs a bit, I then turned my head to my daughters, who continued to struggle with their sets of 100 as I increased the weight of their scythes once again.

With the amount of weight on both of their scythes, they might as well be holding pillars of concrete… but since they're monsters, they can hold things even heavier than that.

To a normal human, just judging from their appearance and how much they're struggling, they might assume the scythes weigh about 80 to 90 pounds… but in reality, they weigh about 250 pounds.

"Okay, girls, it's time for lunch, so set your weapons down,"

"Huh, we get to eat lunch without training?"

"Yep, I'm in a good mood right now, so how about we have our lunch right here… Maids! Bring the lunch here and a blanket that we can sit on!" I shout towards the inside of the castle.

I immediately get a response full of footsteps that resounded through my castle.

We were going to have a picnic.

Tump Tump Tump

A maid comes up to me, bowing deeply with a question I knew they would eventually ask.

"May we work together with Yin and the assassin corps on relaying information?"
