Chapter 39 The Princess isn't in this castle.
We finally managed to get back home and after face palming and being reminded by everyone that Lili already had a space expanded bag, I just stuffed the loot in the padded bag into Lili's space bag and we started to make our way back home to get our falna's updated.
As I was thinking about killing the Goliath, I deadpanned seeing a new listing inside my quests which were to kill five Goliaths. 'Let's be honest, the Goliath down here only spawns once every two weeks and if we were to hog it there would be issues.' I thought ruefully dismissing the missions from my mind.
The crafting Familia's would have our heads as Goliath drops are simply the most popular high-end materials as there's only two Families who can even go after the later bosses without losing members which were the Loki and Freya Familia, but God knows what's happening with Freya's remnants.
Soon enough we stopped by the guild as we left the dungeon and sold most of the monster stones. and drops we received from the weaker monster's we killed on the way as we didnt really need them anymore. I was noticing there was diminishing returns as I kept fusing the same materials into our weapons and gear, so it was better to just sell and buy other materials.
I decided it was best for us to get our falna's updated before I tried my project and both Goddess's who were excited to see our results agreed and before I knew it Freya pulled my shirt off, while Hestia sat behind me and started working on my Falna as Freya watched over her shoulder.
Both Goddess could see the inner workings of my adventures and where commentating on it with the standard. "Oohs and Ahhs." The one bad thing about having what amounted to your wife updating your life story was her being able to see me be slapped around in the dungeon as Hestia was so empathetic, she would always get mopey if she saw I got hurt in the dungeon even if it was promptly healed up with a potion.
"Ok jake you got a lot of options for Development Abilities but most of them we can easily cross out" Hestia spoke as the light behind me dimmed a bit as we started discussing my options.
"What's it lookin like?" I questioned.
"Well, you got the standard options Mage, Hunter, Abnormal Resistance, and a few crafting ones but those aren't really needed with your fusing ability." Hmm she is pretty spot on as all I need is a simple potion and with a large barrel of water and some magic stones, I can fuse them into a much higher quality of elixir to fill an entire barrel worth.
"But I think you should get Spirit Healing which will give a decent regeneration to your mind so you can use magic more often." Hestia continued and frankly I heavily agreed as the further I go the more I will want to use my magic items and if I can have a large pool of mind, I will need a fast-regenerating pool to accent it.
Sadly, the Mage Development will only make my spells much more efficient which won't affect my items magic use...
"Let's go with Spirit Healing." I said firmly to Hestia as it seemed like the best option at the moment as the crafting ones were literally useless basically right now and only Abnormal Resistance kind of piqued my interest as being poisoned was never any fun at all, but I had plenty of fused antidotes to cure any poisoning.
Finally, I could feel Hestia pushing against my back as she pulled off a piece of paper containing the details of my falna.
Hestia came around to my front and lifted my chin to give me a deep kiss and smiled happily. "Congratulations for reaching level two Jake!" She grinned and then patted me on my knee. "Ok I got to go update the other's Falna's."
After spending some time with Freya and Syr just talking and making sure Freya was going alright I went outside where a large pile of materials, with the most important materials being the Goliath drops and a pile of Adamantine, A precious metal that had to be mined in the deeper floors thus being extremely expensive due to not only its powerful magical abilities but the fact only level threes and up actually had the strength to mine the dungeon walls to get the ore.
I looked at the pile of probably forty million valis worth of materials and begged every god within the heavens and every Random Omnipotent Being watching to bless me as I started to fuse the pile of materials.
"Holy shit I've broken the world..." I grinned staring through the magic glasses at its stats.
It was a large metal plate exactly five meters wide caved in slightly towards the middle with large billowing flames dancing at times up to ten meters high from a serene pile of glowing ashes and coals, but the most important part was the wrought iron lantern with glass windows glowing even brighter than the flames surrounding it.
Final Ember's Dying Flame- By sacrificing a piece of flesh to the flames you will link yourself to the flame. Linking to the flame allows one to reborn of the flames after one hundred years of the world's karma being burnt away after death. One may use lanterns made within the flames to teleport between one another.
I grimaced a bit at the whole burning for a century of mind destroying agony getting the ties to the world burnt away as I am guessing it's to get rid of any claim's heaven may have on my soul and to make sure if there's a World Will, or something it won't try to deny my existence or worse.
