Will of chaos

Chapter 184 Cap 183: The Course Of The Days(Chapter Preview)

It's been a week since Ivan and Lyra joined us, in addition to resting another day we went to the Dungeon of the Great Serpent the other days, this was Carlos' request.

It seems that the dungeons are with a lot of monsters, not only that but also the monsters from the deepest floors of the dungeon are spread across the floors, this happened because of the wave of monsters and needs adventurers to kill these monsters to get everything back to normal.

Because of this the novice and lower-ranked adventurers are being sent to the forest to kill the surviving monsters from the monster wave, meanwhile, the Grade -C and up adventurer groups have been sent to explore the dungeons and kill all the monsters by the path.

Another thing that happened is that my entire party went straight up to Grade C and I moved up to Grade -B, it seems that this took into account how I command my party during the monster wave and my final plan that allowed me to kill one large number of Snakemans.

Other than these things I trained to get used to my new status which had a surprising increase, not only I but everyone had similar problems, I also made Ivan and Lyra participate in the training, it would serve to get to know us better and also to help Lyra in her self. control of your strength.

Normally Lyra is a cute and smart girl, but she sucks at controlling her new body, so every time she goes for a hug or shakes someone's hand she runs the risk of broken bones, so she's been training.

Ivan showed that he had many books in the secret room where he spent the last twenty years, the people who were happiest with that were Érica, Irina, and Nira because they knew exactly how much those books on advanced magic, ancient magic, elemental magic, alchemy, necromancy, and dark magic really count.

Another thing that happened is that we were able to sell the swords that Anton has been making out of the materials we could, but I used all the money we could get on Ivan's disguise and concealment item, also on a concealment item for Lyra.

At first, I was afraid Ivan and Lyra would be recognized by someone, but it was unnecessary to worry, Ivan said he could change his appearance a little by manipulating the green energy that created his spectral body so he was unrecognizable, Ivan also told us that the appearance Lyra's is very different from her former appearance.

Kira said that for the past three days there has been someone watching the people in the mansion every time they go shopping, sell something or go on a mission, I gave it the task to find out who this person is spying on us and who is behind it.

The clothes Tânia was making for Lyra were also ready, she also made some clothes for Ivan.

During this week we managed to go to the 35th floor of the Great Serpent Dungeon, from what Kira and Diana told me I managed to get all the bloodlines of all the monsters with the exception of the Dungeon Boss who is on the 55th floor.

During the monster wave, I found it difficult to let all that blood go to waste, but now I got almost all the bloodlines in this dungeon, I also took this week to start the bloodline synthesis.

I ended up discovering that synthesizing strains inside my body is something horrible, my blood starts to boil and run at high speed through my body as it spins, one of the worst problems is that the synthesis of strains takes ten minutes, unlike the synthesis of skills which is almost instantaneous and I don't suffer from this pain, the pain it caused me was so great that I am almost reaching the maximum level of my pain resistance skill.

It seems like letting someone around with a HP potion was really the best idea, because after the lineage synthesis my body gets pretty sore with damaged veins, arteries, and organs.

Every time I did the lineage synthesis it was like going through a torture section, I couldn't let the girls see me like that, so I learned a spell that isolates sound inside a room, that's a non-elemental spell, I did too that the person keeping an eye on me was Ivan or Irius, they were the only ones who understood that this was the type of training I needed to do.

Irius always seemed worried about me, at first he almost interfered several times in the synthesis, but somehow I managed to push him away, after a while he managed to resist the urge to stop me, Ivan on the other hand never tried to stop me or interfere with the synthesis.

The father and daughter duo were surprised when I spoke of my power to acquire the skills and bloodlines of those I devour, when they learned that I had the unique ability of [ Synthesis: 1 ] and was using it to fuse skills and bloodlines, they were even more surprised.

In my conversations with Ivan, he said he never tried to interfere with what I was doing because he was able to see the strong will in my eyes as he resisted the pain of the lineage synthesis, he said it would be disrespectful to try to stop someone as determined as I was grateful for what he said.

Soon another two weeks passed and I'm close to evolving again, but each time I need more EXP, during these two weeks I've changed jobs several times, I've been training many of my skills, many have already reached the maximum level, but few evolved.

Without understanding the reason why my abilities didn't evolve, I went to ask the oldest and wisest members of the mansion, who are Freya and Ivan, they both explained to me that to evolve an ability it's not always enough just to reach its maximum level, sometimes you need to a certain job needs to evolve or needs to fulfill some personal requirement, it varies from person to person so they said they couldn't help me with it, they said that sooner or later it will end up happening.

I have already completed the Great Serpent Dungeon along with everyone except the top floor where the Dungeon Boss is Diana got the information from the Guild that the Boss Monster was a Basilisk, it has hard scales, it has poison in its fangs, it can drop a breath attack that sends a cloud of poison in front of him over a long distance, he also has a petrification ability in his eyes and his strength and speed are very high.

From the description I could see that I had no chance of fighting a creature like that, it was already difficult to fight the deepest monsters in the Dungeon that were Grade A monsters, you had to fight with everything you had and still fight together my group, even some and the others were hurt several times, if it hadn't been for our recovery skills and for having Irina who healed us countless times we wouldn't have been able to do that, that's when I realized that the most important member of the group was Irina.

As I wouldn't face Basilisk I was starting to think about trying the next dungeon which was the Blood Dungeon, but then I thought about resting a few more days as I was close to evolving again which was faster than I expected.

I decided that everyone should rest a few more days, during which time I would think about what we should do next, while I thought I concentrated on learning, even more, spells, during difficult fights I realized how much a wide variety of spells can help in different situations.

Another thing that happened every day during the night before bed was me helping Layla to harmonize the mansion's miasma, in fact, almost all the work was done by her, all I had to do was send all my mana to her and she did the rest, after three weeks Layla said she had done 70% of the work, thanks to my Affinity with the dark element I could feel this element becoming even stronger and purer around me in the miasma, but other than that I felt no difference.

Those weeks were a little busy, but I was happy to have so many people around to help me with all these tasks, Lyra spent all that time in her alchemy lab where she created and studied various potions, almost every potion I used in Dungeon or after synthesizing the strains were made by her.

We were selling less and fewer materials to the Guild as Anton, Tania and Lyra kept a lot of them, but it's paying off as Nira with Ivan's help started selling to the Trade Guild and we are earning much higher profits now and at almost no expense as we get all the materials ourselves.

Life has been difficult but so much fun, so many exciting things happening, the feeling of getting stronger, seeing my mates getting stronger and for the first time enjoying this world like a fantasy world should be on my mind.

But I knew it wouldn't last forever, life isn't just about fun, something will always happen that will stop you from flying through the clouds and smack your face into the wall called reality, I knew this would happen more sooner or later, especially when Kira informed me that the person watching us was the Prince of Cartoza's maid, but luckily he left Valen town yesterday, it seems he's heading to the capital of Trigan which made me very happy for finally have one less worry.
