Scarlet
I find myself feeling odd when awareness returns to me. Kind of like how it used to feel when youre really groggy after having slept for waaaay too long.
But Im not really given very long to think about whats going on or push past my grogginess, because soon enough a wave of System Messages appear in my vision.
{Level 2500 Dragon defeated and devoured.}
{Three thousand Skill Points are awarded for defeating a legendary creature.}
{Two thousand Skill Points are awarded for reforming your reality after its almost completely erased.}
{One thousand Skill Points are awarded for more than five mythic skills.}
{Five hundred Skill Points are awarded for dying more than once and reforming.}
{Five hundred Skill Points are awarded for killing a creature of two hundred and fifty or more levels above you without help.}
To my surprise, the messages about points continue on and on and on until I eventually end up with over ten thousand Skill Points. Then the level-up messages begin to flow.
{Congrats, you have leveled up to level 2214. Ten Free Points have been awarded to you and your stats have been updated.}
{Congrats, you have leveled up to level 2321. Ten Free Points have been awarded to you and your stats have been updated.}
And finally, after the level-up messages, the universal and regular notifications start appearing.
Starting with an achievement-locked mythic skill that Ive been wanting to have for quite a while now.

I blink at that as the people around me talk, but I still feel too groggy to really pay attention to what theyre doing. Then the next one appears.
System Notice
User has completed all of the necessary achievements in order to unlock a Mythic Skill.
The achievements they have completed include the following:

A faint smile stretches across my face as I instinctively open my Skill Store and purchase both of the mythic skills. Then I go ahead and check the next notifications.
Stolen from its rightful place, this narrative is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings.
System Notice
User has completed all of the necessary achievements in order to obtain a Title-Bearing [REDACTED] Skill.
The achievements they have completed include the following:
Reach Class V while under twenty-five years of age.
Defeat a being two hundred and fifty levels above you without any assistance.
Have the Apex Predator Skill.
Defeat a being two hundred and fifty levels above you with or without assistance.
By having slain a dragon.
As this is a Title-Bearing [REDACTED] Skill, you will be given the skill at no charge.
So many notifications so sleepy
Rejoice, user Scarlet Art Asger de Archeron, for you have earned the Transcendent Skill known as Dragon Slayer. And along with it, you have been assigned the Title of Dragon Slayer!
This skill is a direct upgrade of the skill Apex Predator and will replace the skill. However, the user shall retain the Title Apex Predator.
Dragon Slayer:
It grants the user a 100% boost in stats when fighting a creature at a higher level than themselves by at least fifty levels. It grants the user a 75% boost in stats when fighting a creature at a higher level than themselves by at least ten levels. It grants the user a permanent 50% boost in stats no matter who they are fighting.
These bonuses do not stack together with each other.
All hail the Dragon Slayer.
Dragon Slayer?
I suddenly feel a rush of power entering my body, making my eyes shoot open as I wake up fully. Most likely the result of my new transcendent skill?
Whats a transcendent skill?
Wait, it said it was one of those redacted skills, or, rather, a new one. So I guess the redacted word was transcendent.
Another notification appears, making my eyes narrow slightly, now fully awake.
System Notice
User has completed all of the necessary achievements in order to obtain a Title-Bearing [REDACTED] Skill.
The achievements they have completed include the following:
Reach Class IV while under twenty years old.
Defeat a being one hundred and fifty levels above you without any assistance.
Reach Class IV within a year of having been initiated into the System.
By being the descendant of the Demon King who is the original etcher of the skill Blood Domain or having obtained an inferior version of the skill yourself.
By having both blood magic and null magic or being descendant from a user with them that has etched their skills.
By defeating a Class V being while still not being Class V yourself.
By having the mythic skill Blood Domain.
As this is a Title-Bearing [REDACTED] Skill, you will be given the skill at no charge.
Now thats the one I remember seeing before. And I was right about it being an upgrade to Blood Domain.
Rejoice, user Scarlet Art Asger de Archeron, for you have earned the Transcendent Skill known as Ruler of Blood. And along with it, you have been assigned the Title of Ruler of Blood!
This skill is a direct upgrade of the skill Blood Domain and will replace the skill.
Ruler of Blood:
It grants the user perfect control over all blood, whether it be the creation, erasure, manifestation, or manipulation of it.
All blood will be under your control.
All hail the Ruler of Blood.
And immediately after getting that terrifying skill, I feel a sense of awareness of everything around me. And along with it, an understanding of all the blood in everyone. Every last person nearby.
I feel like I can create blood at will. Real blood. Not just manifested blood.
I can also erase the blood or manipulate the blood of anyone near me. Although I can also tell that some of their blood is harder to mess with than others.
Like the Demon King who I now realize is still holding my hand, with Leonidas holding my other hand, Amelia hugging my head, and Allen and Cynthia both with a hand on one of my legs each. All of whom are crying, not even saying anything anymore while theyre doing it.
A smile stretches across my face at the sight, and I tighten my grip a little on Leonidas and Arkazs hands as the universal notifications finally start coming in.
One after another, all the way till it ends up hitting around a dozen fucking notifications.
Probably spammed everyone and confused the tournament competitors during their compe..ti..tion
I stiffen up as I remember the competition, only for Arkaz who apparently calmed down at some point during the notification spam to say, Youve missed four rounds of the competition, and your fae missed two.
That calms me down a little.
Better four than the rest of the tournament.
It also means that I wasnt unconscious for as long as I expected I would be.
I feel very conflicted about having missed the competitions, but eventually I settle down again at the thought that I should hopefully be able to oh, wait, these arent combat competitions. So my new powers wont matter
Fuck.
Well, rest in peace my points
Congrats on the three thousand points you got for killing the dragon by the way, Leonidas suddenly says, making my head snap towards him as my eyes widen.
Huh?
