Cosmic Peak

Aren opened the scroll, and right after opening it, the scrolls shined and disappeared before he received a flood of memories in his brain on how to use it and information about the skill along with headache and pain.

<Demonic Grasp>

-Skill level: 1 (Max: 5)

-Skill rank: SSS

-Cost: 95 spirit energy per seed.

-Effect: Using this skill, you can create a seed that you can control. Once it hits an enemy, it will explode to deal damage and release two demonic vines to impair the enemy. Impaired enemies will have difficulty controlling their spirit energy.

-Note: You can use multiple seeds for more damage and better impairment. You can either form vines around the target or connect the vines to the ground to make the enemy trapped in one spot.

-As the vines are of the demonic element, their attack power will increase if the user has the demonic affinity.

Aren looked at the skill information and felt that this skill would enhance his combat power by not small but a large margin considering his battle style.

"That 95 spirit energy cost...It should be 190 spirit energy cost. However, due to Armalist Force Enhancement on my spirit core, all skill's costs are halved," Aren muttered before he remembered that his control of spirit energy is also level 2 due to that, and that might help him do more circulation of pattern in all his meridians so that he can progress faster in Demon Yakum's spinergy method.

Afterward, Athan took out another scroll and opened it.

The same thing happened as the scroll shined and disappeared before Athan received an ability that he could use by consuming spirit energy and also an intense headache.

Skills require manipulation of spirit energy through their meridians to release them. However, abilities are like their body parts. Like how Athan can move his hands, walk, etc. He can use abilities that easily as well. The application of this ability seems to be infused in his brain, so he just needs to think about it to use it by consuming spirit energy.

<Demonic Flame, Zarkhel>

-Demonic Flame, Zarkhel: A dark blue flame that can cause freeze externally but causes burns after freezing to inflict damage. Lowers physical and energy defense by a certain margin. Weak against Angelic energy.

-Rank: SSS

-Cost: 10 spirit energy per second.

-Effect: Once activated, all of your attacks will be laced with Demonic Flame: Zarkhel.

-Current level: 1 ( lowers physical and energy defense by 360.)

-Note: To increase the level of this ability, the user needs to have Demonic Affinity.

-Note 2: You can increase spirit energy consumption per second to inflict more burning damage. However, that will not increase the effect of freezing and lowering the enemy's physical and energy defense.

"Hmmm... I can use both skills to full potential only if I have the so-called demonic affinity, which I don't have," Aren muttered before he looked around and walked towards a boulder.

After arriving in front of the boulder, he activated <Demonic Flame, Zarkhel> and touched the boulder.

Right as he touched the boulder, a dark blue flame materialized from his hand as well and attacked the boulder before freezing it.

Aren could see blue flamy sparks inside the frozen surface of the boulder as they burned the boulder before melting and destroying it in two seconds.

"Not bad...," Aren nodded before he took out the last reward.

Mark of Yakum.

This item looked baffling because it was a black card with "Yakum" written on it in golden fonts.

[Mark of Yakum]

-Showing this card to any active demonic post or any demonic temple will allow you to go through a demonic trial from which you can acquire Demonic affinity and other rewards upon passing the trial.

-You will get a discount of 20% on all items you buy from any stores of demon factions.

"So I have a chance to get Demonic Affinity. Hmmm...it looks like my next destination after completing that fraud quest is to find a demonic post or a demonic temple," Aren thought with narrowed eyes. To become stronger, he will do anything as long as his conscience allows it.

He then took out the map before hopping on his sword and started flying towards the Blood-spring valley.

Quest, Find the lost sons has been accepted.]

<Objective>

-->Fine the elder's two sons who didn't return home after going to Blood-Spring valley.

<Reward>

-->5000 exp.

-->10,000 gold.

-->Family heirloom of Fulas family.

The old man who gave this quest said that he would post this updated quest if he didn't get any news from Aren after three days, and Aren still had one and a half-day before that deadline.

Aren knows that the quest is suspicious, and that's why he is planning just sneakily to check out the Blood-spring valley.

While flying, he took out the broken hammer and started repairing it as well.
