Chapter 1080: Fusing Skills
-----
The next morning arrived uneventfully. The barrier was strong and so were my familiars, any attempt at attacking us at night was immediately dwarfed and stopped, even when two Draconic Generals had showed up, they were killed by Bestellen, Ruby, Blood, and the Elven Knights quite quickly, only adding more units to my Abyssal Vampiric Undead Familiar army.
"Everyone! Come eat breakfast already, it's ready!" Erika and Elizabeth called for everyone else to walk downstairs to the dining room, the two of them decided to cook breakfast for a change.
A lot of scrambled eggs, fried bacon, freshly baked bread, pancakes, waffles, fruit and cakes were placed over the table, there were even cookies from their secret stash of snacks, they were quite generous today.
"Eat up everyone, today we gotta continue after all!" Erika said.
"A good day can only start with a full stomach," Elizabeth agreed.
"Woah, thank you girls!" Alberta said, eating the cookies and then other things. "Everything's tasty!"
"Been a while since I ate scrambled eggs with bacon, good stuff," Erdrich said, happily devouring his plate with some toasts covered on butter. "Aren't you eating anything, buddy?"
"I don't… particularly enjoy eating meat," Elfriedden sighed. "Neither eggs…"
"Oh right, we got a lot of fruit here, and cakes, you can eat those right?" Erika wondered.
"I suppose I'll have to eat a few sugary meals this time around," Elfriedden said. "Let us hope I don't gain any weight…"
"Weight? I doubt so, you got the physique of a walking scarecrow dude, hahaha!" laughed Chris.
"What?! How dare you! It has taken be a while to sculpt my physique in what it is now!" Elfriedden complained, feeling completely attacked with those words.
"Now, now, there's no need to stay the day like this, guys…" Eric sighed. "Let's enjoy our meals! We are not even halfway through our journey. So hurry and eat!"
He was quite bossy today.
As everyone enjoyed their meals, I looked at the Soul Flames I had accumulated so far. We've been killing thousands after thousands of foes, so naturally the amount of Soul Flames accumulated was huge.
Although I let those that could absorb them also take their share, which were Erika, Chris, Alberta, and Erdrich as they had the compatibility with the Fire Holy Spirit Authority Blessing, I still had a huge amount of these Flames.
Soul Flames were separate from the Soul itself, an extension of it formed through my authority, the leftover power, stats, or even skills from foes remain in these Soul Flames. I harvest them before turning something into an Abyssal Vampiric Undead, maximum efficiency.
Although so far I've only used it to permanently gain stats, recently the Authority Title reached a high enough level to unlock the ability of a random chance to obtain a skill that belonged to the wielder of the Soul Flame absorbed.
[Available Soul Flames: 36.839]
Chapter Stay:
[Do you wish to absorb the Soul Flames?]
[Yes] [No]
I pressed [Yes] without hesitating, I wanted to get stronger for the Trial after all, I knew there would be some devious things waiting for me. It can't be too easy after all, right? Or it wouldn't be called a "filter" if that wasn't the case.
FLUOSH!
Thousands after thousands of Soul Flames were absorbed all at once, originating mostly from either the lizardmen or the draconic beasts, some of them came from the draconic generals as well.
My soul grew stronger, my magic circle spun rapidly, enhancing my magic power, and my physique was further reinforced, becoming tougher.
Ding!
[You have absorbed 36.839 Soul Flames!]
[You gained +40.000 HP.]
[You gained +50.000 MP.]
[You gained +30.000 Strength, Agility, and Vitality.]
[You gained +35.000 Intelligence and Dexterity.]
[You gained +15.000 Spirit.]
[You gained +10.000 Divinity.]
[You have successfully absorbed the Soul Flames, absorbing some of the Skills that once belonged to the original owners of these Soul Flames.]
[You learned the Skills: [Draconic Lizardman Weapon Arts: Lv1] [Draconic General's Commanding Roar: Lv1] [Lesser Dragon Tongue Magic: Lv1]
Well, these are definitely just fodder to be fused into better Skills, without a doubt.
Though…
Ding!
[A Skill has been detected to be very similar to another you already possess!]
[Do you wish to fuse [Lesser Dragon Tongue Magic: Lv1] into your [Divine Dragon Tongue: Lv4] Skill?]
[Yes] [No]
"Huh… Fine."
FLASH!
Both Skills combined together within the very core of my existence, they were indeed very similar, and when they combined together…
Ding!
[Congratulations! You have combined the [Lesser Dragon Tongue Magic: Lv1] and [Divine Dragon Tongue: Lv4] Skills into the [Divine Dragon Tongue Magic Authority: Lv1]!]
[You have manifested the [Developing Divinity: Dragon Tongue]!]
[You gained +5.000 Divinity Stat.]
My Dragon Tongue was already very powerful, but now it became Magic and Authority, and even a Divinity? Looks like whatever power Fafnir lend to these generals is now mine, and it further improved my already very strong Dragon Tongue, hilarious.
So it might work as both a stronger manifestation of Magic, and also an Authority by itself… Perhaps with this I could compare to Fafnir's own Dragon Tongue, right?
Because if his own is as strong as mine, with his tremendous power and mana, it won't be an easy fight.

A Special and powerful Divine Skill that only the most Ancient of Dragons can learn and develop. Since Ancient Times that Dragons have not only held incredibly physical might, but an understanding and power over magic like no others within the Realm of Mortals.
Merely by saying words, magic will simply materialize, completely leaving obsolete the necessity of utilizing Magic Circles. Simply say a word and its meaning will materialize. The more complicated the meanings, the more Mana will be required. The higher the skill level, the faster the conjuration time becomes and the more complicated the runes can become.

Additionally, grants the ability to conjure Fusion Magic with mere word commands that could be much more complicated otherwise, and facilitates the usage of Divinity Abilities in combination with Dragon Tongue's instant conjuration by creating an {Dragon Tongue Authority Domain} which spreads a Domain where your Magic Power is absolute within 100 meters around you, enhancing the Power and Effects of all Magic by 1000%.
you can conjure several spells at the same time by talking with many Voices, which increase based on Skill Level. Number of Voices: 2. Mana cost increases proportionally to the scale of the spells.

A pretty good update, I would say. Now that I am done with this, I should use those other items I had obtained from Mammon's Treasure Chest, yes, all those demonic items. They looked rather interesting.
Yeah, there.
[Cursed Archdemon of Greed Blood Elixir (Celestial Grade)] x10
[Demonic Skill Evolution Scroll: Mammon's Soul Fragment (Celestial Grade)] x1
[Demonic Skill Fusion Ticket (Legendary Grade)] x2
[Demonic Skill Evolution Ticket (Legendary Grade)] x2
"Hmm…"
I grabbed the Elixirs, looking at their contents.
Was it truly Mammon's Blood?
Well, let's drink it anyways.
