Nameless King

Wain and Gisle discussed a few more things, and then each went about their business. Gisle gave instructions and assembled a team to clean up and take over the immediate area. Wain headed for the exit of the campus.

"Right, I forgot about the souls. I wanted to see what skill and how I could improve." Proclaimed Wain and opened the inventory where there were hundreds of souls.

Most of them belonged to weak zombies and mutated insects. Among these souls was not a single Rare Rated soul. Moreover, all of these souls were Destroyed. Wain did not receive a stat boost, but only a huge amount of Soul Essence.

[You have acquired the Soul Essence of Zombie level 4.]

[You have acquired the Soul Essence of Giant Bee level 3.]

[You have acquired the Soul Essence of Mosquito level 6.]

[You have acquir...]

A moment later, Wain received a colossal amount of Soul Essence. He felt that it would be more than enough to improve some skill.

Then Wain opened the skill improvement menu and was pleasantly surprised by what he saw.

[You can improve a skill - Destruction Sword]

[You can improve the soul - Last Knight]

For starters, Wain wanted to improve the Destruction Sword, a skill he used all the time. Wain was willing to go to great lengths to make this skill an even more deadly weapon than it is now.

Wain decided to improve Destruction Sword, and the next, he felt a huge amount of Soul Essence being redirected into the skill.

[You have used 30% of your total Soul Essence. The Destruction Sword skill is ready to develop. Choose one of two ways]

[Improve Chronicle skill]

[Improve Skill Rating]

Naturally, Wain wanted to improve the Rating of Destruction Sword, because then he had more development options to choose from. And also, in the long run, it was much better than to improve Chronicle, even though the skill has Common Rating.

[You decided to improve the Rating of the skill]

[Choose one of the suggested options]

In the next moment, five different options appeared before Wain. When a person chose to improve the Rating of skill, he was offered at least two options to develop the skill. It could have been three, four, or even five different options. It all depended on the situation.

Also, the number of improvement options offered had nothing to do with the power of the skill itself. A weak skill could have five options, while a strong one had only two, or vice versa.

[Massive Destruction Sword]

[Double Destruction Sword]

[Defensive Destruction Sword]

[Sword of Massacre]

[Plasma Destruction Sword]

'There are quite a few different choices this time. I need to approach this choice as carefully as possible. This skill is one of the main components of my fighting style.' Thought Wain and opened the description of the first skill of the five.

[Massive Destruction Sword (Primary Chronicle, Rare Rating)

This is an enhanced version of the skill - Destruction Sword. The dark sword will become huge enough to be used to cut through entire rocks. Its length will increase up to four meters. To use this skill, you need a lot of strength. Not everyone will lift a sword, which weighs more than two hundred kilograms. Also, the human body must be strong enough to withstand the power of such a weapon.

[It is possible to develop the skill if the following conditions are met -

[Strength and Stamina above 30 points without external factors: 22/30, 21/30]

'Hmm, that's not a bad improvement. Moreover, the conditions for the development of this skill are quite serious. At the moment, I have 24 Status Points. If I want, I can increase Strength and Stamina to 30 points and develop the skill in this direction. But, this skill lacks uniqueness. Moreover, a four-meter sword is too cumbersome a weapon. I think other options would suit me better.' Wain thought and moved on to the next skill.

[Double Destruction Sword (Primary Chronicle, Rare Rating)

This skill allows you to summon two of the same Destruction Sword. However, the swords must be within 20 meters of each other for maximum effectiveness. Otherwise, their power will drop by a factor of three. The range of the skill is 40 meters. Moreover, you need perfect control and prolonged training to use this skill.

[It is possible to develop this skill if the following conditions are met - None]

"What? Does this skill have no conditions to develop? I can get this skill right now, but is it worth it?" Wain pondered.

There were no conditions because using this skill was extremely difficult. Wain wasn't fully used to operating one sword yet, but if there were two, the difficulty would increase many times over. Moreover, he would have to keep an eye on the distance between the swords and make sure they didn't crash into each other. It sounded simple, but it was challenging.

Also, he had to fight, dodge, attack, and counterattack simultaneously. It was as if he would be controlling three people at once.

Wain decided to forgo this option and look at the description of the following skill.

[Defensive Destruction Sword (Primary Chronicle, Rare Rating)

This skill calls for a modified version of the Destruction Sword. The sword becomes larger, and its length reaches three meters. Also, closer to the guard, the blade becomes wider. Thus, the lower half of the sword resembles a shield. Moreover, this part is protected by an additional layer of metal, which can withstand most Primary Chronicle monster attacks.

[It is possible to develop the skill if the following conditions are met -

[Strength, Agility, Vitality, Stamina should be higher than 25 points without taking into account external factors. 22/25, 20/25, 22/25, 21/25]

Wain could use his Status Points and increase the stats to the right values, but he didn't see any point in it. He didn't like the skill. It didn't suit his fighting style. If Wain's weapon of choice were half shield, half sword, he would have to defend himself most of the fight.

Wain was adept at blocking and parrying enemy attacks, but he didn't want to base his fighting style on blind defense. In that case, he would have to wait for a good moment for the enemy to make a mistake and take advantage of it. Wain liked to fight differently.

He preferred to create his own lucky moments and fight fast and active pace. That way, he could overwhelm his enemy with force and destroy him with a barrage of attacks.

"Hmm, those three options weren't bad, but they all look kind of ordinary. I want something more interesting and vivid, and the next option seems to suit me better than the previous one." Mumbled Wain and opened the description of the next skill.
