MMORPG: Rise of the Primordial Godsmith

Chapter 1724 1724: Skills of a Rank 5 (3)

ʼI remember Valyr used to have a skill that allowed him to cast something called [Memento Mori] back then.ʼ

ʼ…Not gonna lie, I wonʼt be surprised if a spell with ʼDeathʼ literally in its name would do a better job than [Memento Mori] ever did.ʼ

Of course, even though he knew how much of an effect the fourth spell would have on the battlefield if he were to cast it, Ataraxia understood that casting the spells in order would allow it to have the greatest effect.

Aside from the fact that each spell increased the amount of damage the subsequent spell dealt by a certain amount, each spell also seemed to cover a certain field in combat.

From what he could tell, [1st Omen: Famine] and [2nd Omen: Pestilence] were spells that mostly focused on reducing the opposing sideʼs advantage as much as possible through an insane amount of debuffs.

On the other hand, [3rd Omen: War] and [4th Omen: Death] were spells purely made to deal an insane amount of damage.

However, even though that was their primary goal, the two spells still had differences among them, with the former giving him greater control over the damage he could deal.

Plus, if he aimed to use the latter spell as the attack that would end it all, he could use [3rd Omen: War] as a catalyst of sorts in order to make sure that it would be able to dish out as much as damage as possible.

Then again, even in the possibility that the opposing side remained standing after being hit by [4th Omen: Death] with full force, he could still rely on Deathʼs Judgment possibly taking effect, which looked to be an instant death debuff from what he had read.

ʼIf the fourth spell on the list is already this powerful, I can only imagine how much more powerful the next spell on the list is,ʼ said Ataraxia to himself, briefly glancing at the spell named [5th Omen: Apocalypse].

Though his common sense told him that a spell with the word ʼApocalypseʼ attached would be able to unleash damage far greater than ʼDeathʼ could ever achieve, the young man was forced to shelf his thoughts on the spell for the meantime.

After all, the only Intent he had related to the Arcane concept had not reached the level of a Force yet.

ʼWith that out of the way, that only leaves [Descent of the Arcane Supreme].ʼ

As he brought up the description of the only skill he had yet to look at, Ataraxia could not help but feel like the skill was similar to one of the skills his other self often used.

ʼBoth of them start with the word ʼDescent,ʼ he muttered to himself as the idea came to mind. ʼBoth of them also have something to do with an incredibly powerful entity.ʼ

ʼ…It would be great if that were the case,ʼ he continued, letting out a soft sigh as he began to read through the skillʼs description. ʼBecause if it was, then the gap between our full strengths could be closed to some degree.ʼ

ʼOf course, it will never be fully bridged as long those shards exist.ʼ

ʼBut if weʼre talking about going all out while staying at the same rank, then it would be possible for me to…ʼ

ʼTo…ʼ

ʼ…ʼ

ʼ…huh.ʼ

…

While Ataraxia was going through his notifications from the ascension, Valyr faintly let out a chuckle as he began to go through his own list of notifications.

Ding!

[Your species ʼPrime Azure Origin | True Defier of Fate (4th Unsealing)ʼ has been changed to ʼPrime Azure Origin | True Defier of Fate (5th Unsealing)ʼ.]

[As you have transitioned to a higher-level species, you have gained +56 VIT, +56 STR, +53 AGI, +110 DEX, +107 INT, +50 WIS, +59 PER, and +33 LUK.]

[Your class ʼThe First Blacksmith (Ancient+ — Growth)ʼ has been improved to adapt to Rank 5 standards.]

[You have gained +7 VIT, +7 STR, +7 AGI, +19 DEX, +19 INT, +7 WIS, +7 PER, and +1 LUK.]

[Your subclass ʼFour Paths Azure Warlord (Epic)ʼ has been improved to adapt to Rank 5 standards.]

[You have gained +6 VIT, +6 STR, +9 AGI, +11 DEX, and +11 INT.]

[Your subclass ʼMystic Rune Alchemist (Common)ʼ has been improved to adapt to Rank 5 standards.]

[You have gained +2 VIT, +3 INT, +3 WIS and +4 PER.]

[You have gained 9 unassigned stat points.]

Unsurprisingly, just like his other self, the first set of notifications he received from the system were made up of improvements to his stats, with a great portion of it coming from the evolution of his species.

Though, unlike his other self, the stats he obtained from his species evolution was only half as effective. After all, the elixirs he consumed in the past werenʼt as powerful as the ones Ataraxia did.

Fortunately, he had a second subclass to compensate, which he felt would begin to truly shine once he upgraded it to its highest rarity.

ʼSpeaking of which, I should pay a visit to the Mystic Plane after Iʼm done with my plans,ʼ thought Valyr to himself, being reminded that it had been a while since he last visited Mystia and Marcus.

While briefly pondering over what heʼd do while he was there, the young man shifted his attention towards the next set of notifications from the system… which surprisingly had something to do with one of his racial skills.

[You have ascended to a higher class rank.]

[Recalculating your total base stats…]

[Converting a portion of your base stats into Points of Aspiration…]

[You currently have 927 Points of Aspiration.]

[Due to this change, all currently allocated Points of Aspiration have been removed. You can reallocate your Points of Aspiration at any time.]

ʼThatʼs quite a large jump,ʼ he muttered to himself, remembering that he only had over 500 Points of Aspiration in the past.

With over 900 Points of Aspiration under his belt, it was now possible for him to boost all of his stats by over a hundred points each if he wanted.

But then again, considering how effective each point was, Valyr showed no hesitation in allocating all of it onto DEX for the meantime, immediately feeling his Attack stat go up by a large amount as he moved onto the next set of notifications.

ʼAdvanced-level advancements and Legacies…ʼ

Though he already had an idea of what heʼd do for his Legacy, the young man showed more interest towards the fact that he could now unlock Advanced-level advancements.

After all, that meant that he could now cash in the agreement he had made with Elder Alvin in the past.

Aside from that, the fact that he was now Rank 5 also gave him access to what he felt were the two most important advancements one needed to unlock as a blacksmith.

ʼ…Iʼll save those advancements for later,ʼ said Valyr to himself, tossing the notifications aside as he looked at the last couple of notifications that remained.

ʼNow then…ʼ

ʼWhat kind of skills did I get, exactly?ʼ
