Chapter 40 First demon - Lich
Chapter 40 First demon - Lich
[Changes has been made to your skills and status.]
Xander's vision was blurry and his head hurt. All sound around him reverberated in his head as he moved. He heard the sound of sand crunching under his palms and the sound of his breathing.
All of a sudden all the impulses stopped. Xander no longer heard all the echoes of sands and movements and his hearing became clear.
"What the hell happened? The power of my arcana was limited in this place." He recalled.
"And what changes is this system talking about?" He said as he brought up his status screen.

"Woah. I'm almost twice as strong as I was before." Xander said as he scrolled on the screen in amusement.
"What about the description?" Xander said as he tapped his new skill.

[(New talent) - awaken: you have the ability to Revive the dead for as long as you want as long as you have mana]
"WHAT!!" Xander exclaimed as he saw how much his skills changed just because his arcana awakened fully. He even got a new talent!
"This is... the full ability of my arcana." He said, still bewildered.
Xander finally calmed down and smiled. The smile soon spread into a grin.
"I'm the boss of this place." Xander then turned around and went back to where there was a single bone of the reaper on the floor.
"I've been saving my ability because of the limited use but now... there's no need to worry about anything." Xander said and placed his hand on the bone.
Immediately, he felt something flow from his hand into the bone which was Mana and a screen popped up in front of him.
[Do you wish to demonify, level 51 reaper? <YES> <NO>
Cost: 500 Mana points.]
Xander pressed yes without any hesitation and then, red streams of energy flowed from his hand and surrounded the bone of the reaper. The previously shattered green gem and all the dust from the surroundings swirled and came together like a tornado.
A little sand tornado formed in front of him and in the next second Xander smirked.
The sand tornado stopped and the reaper stood in front of him. He could notice the changes in the body as it looked familiar to the reaper.
The scythe now had a red blade and the gem behind it's rib cages was now glowing crimson red. The fiery eyes of the reaper were now red.
*Ding!*

"No wonder the reaper never got tired even though it moved slower than me. It'sStamina is... far higher than mine." Xander said as he looked at the creature's Stamina which was 500.
"Lich. I fought some of those in other games." Xander said as his eyes went to the skills, Talents and gears.
'I wonder if...' Xander's hand went to the skills button and the screen extended.

Xander nodded in satisfaction. "With the skills and superior Stamina of the reaper I wouldn't even have to do anything and just let it kill monsters for me."
Xander then furrowed his brows as he saw that the reaper also had the skill 'Reaper's spirit'.
"Can you talk?" Xander looked at the lich and said.
"Yes, my lord." The voice of the lich sounded ominous and dreary.
"If you had the skill before why didn't you use it?" Xander asked as he thought that it was something relating to the mist.
"I was trapped here, unable to leave the mist by a magic object. And if it was destroyed I would too since the mist had control of me." The lich had it's head down which made Xander chest out in pride.
"So you had to protect it to protect yourself." Xander nodded as he looked within the tunnels where the mist was coming from.
"Come on... let's go check it out." Xander said and turned around. The reaper walking behind him made him feel powerful.
'So I can now see in the dark too.' Xander thought as he was able to see every detail of the tunnels. It was as if a bright light shone all over the place.
Soon, Xander saw a pillar with red runes running on the body. Xander could see the red aura in the air leading him here so he walked up to to alter.
It looked extremely similar to the one he is looking for now, that means there is something good that.
'I didn't check out that first alter so I won't miss this one.' Xander thought as he placed hisbhand on the alter.
