Re-Awakening: I Ascend with a Legendary class

Almond and Lily found themselves in a mystical blank space with complete whiteness.

[ Entry of inferior dimensional lifeform detected. ]

[ Activating conversion sequence of tenth dimensional drive. ]

Almond and Lily suddenly felt their bodies disperse into strange geometric cubes, oozing light in all directions.

’This…’

They were together and could feel each other, but their perceived appearance was no longer human.

’What is going on?’

’How strange.’

[ You may modify your appearance to your imagination. Once created, this will become your true appearance. ]

Almond and Lily saw a window in front of them with their appearance.

Almond appeared with shoulder-length wavy black hair, a six-foot lean, muscled frame with an ultimate T-form, empowered by his supreme golden, honey-glistered eyes. Circular black pupils expanded with dark gold sparks, like infinite stars.

On the other hand, Lily appeared slender and poised, with a perfect figure and proportions. Her long silver-blue hair flowed down her back with faint prismatic hints. Her pale skin looked calm and unreal, while her achromatic eyes held countless micro-sparks of hourglass-shaped motes, with a soft, rotating glow pupil in the middle.

’Nah. No need to change anything.’

’Yep.’

[ Lifeform assets quantified. Please distribute your base stats. ]

Almond and Lily both received a window showing some stats.

[Name]

[Lifeform: Perishable]

[Stats: 100]

— Pulse: 0/0

— Constitution: 0

— Arihanta: 0

— Will: 0

’Interesting.’ Almond raised his eyebrows.

Lily blinked, curious. ’What is Arihanta?’

[ Arihanta means destruction, potential, and creation. This stat determines the comprehensive output value of your lifeform. ]

’What does Will do?’ Almond asked.

[ Will determines your comprehensive resistance and comprehensive boost of everything. Will also determines the speed of comprehensive progression. ]

Lily asked next. ’What about Constitution?’

[ Constitution determines the complexity, efficiency, and toughness of your body. ]

’And Pulse seems like the energy of our lifeforms,’ Almond thought.

[ Pulse is your lifeform’s consumable energy that you produce every second. It is affected by Arihanta, as the comprehensive potency and capacity of Pulse depend on it. ]

Now that Almond and Lily knew everything, they distributed the stat points.

Equally.

[Stats: 0 ]

— Pulse: 340/340

— Constitution: 33

— Arihanta: 34

— Will: 33

Right as they finished distribution, a new window popped up.

[ You have five potential deck manifestations, but you can only manifest one right now. If you want more, you must progress and elevate your lifeform. ]

Almond and Lily saw their True Concepts.

Both of them had five True Concepts.

However, they did not need to think much, as they naturally chose their strongest True Concepts.

Almond chose Grim-Fated Blade, previously known as Grim-Fated Cut.

On the other hand, Lily chose Dreadspire Nexus.

[ Deck manifestation initialized. ]

[ Guide ]

— A deck is the expression of your lifeform, and it grows with your experience, insights, and inspiration.

— Decks start with limited slots of cards and can be expanded. Cards can be acquired or manifested to add to the deck. Cards can be removed at your will. Once any card is removed from a deck, it will be destroyed permanently.

— Deck Example:

[ Basic Warrior Deck ]

Rank: Tier-1 (Rank determines the total card slots of your deck. Requires experience to rank up.)

Card Draw: 10 Pulse per star of the card.

Card Pile: [4/4 – Inspiration: 0 – Insight: 0]

Cleave | 1-star Leap | 1-star Brave Roar | 1-star Summon: Mighty Sword | 2-star

[ Inspiration: New card manifestation. ]

[ Insight: Card evolution. ]

[ Cards can be instantly used with your thoughts. Two types of instantaneous actions occur when you use a card, depending on the card.

Body Action, requiring coordination of your constitutional body to execute the action. Mind Action, requiring sequencing of your Arihanta to execute the action.

Performing the action with less than 100 percent proficiency when using a card will decrease the output potency of the card. ]

’So… we will be using cards as our means of battle?’ Lily was not expecting that.

’Seems like it. I wonder what kind of decks our True Concepts will manifest into.’

[ Decks manifested. ]

’Here they are.’

Both of them saw a card in their consciousness.

Almond saw a dark gold card with a plated crimson pattern shaped into a blade with a grim aura, as if it sought to sever fate itself and rewrite reality.

[ Throne of Grimlord’s Blade Deck ]

Rank: Tier-1 (Exp: 0%)

Card Draw: 10 Pulse per star of the card.

Card Pile: [1/4 – Inspiration: 0 – Insight: 0]

Grimblade Creation (2-star)

[ Grimblade Creation ]

Quality: 2-star

Effect:

— You can target any inanimate object and transform it into a Grimblade with unique properties that depend on the object.

— If a Grimblade is destroyed, it will sever its fate of destruction and instead evolve. This only happens once per Grimblade.

On the other hand, Lily saw a deep obsidian card unfold in her mind, its surface etched with cathedral-like spires rising inward instead of outward. Veins of muted violet light pulsed between the structures, converging into a central nexus that felt vast, patient, and hungry. It radiated a dreadful inevitability.

[ Empress of Eternal Dread Deck ]

Rank: Tier-1 (Exp: 0%)

Card Draw: 10 Pulse per star of the card.

Card Pile: [1/4 – Inspiration: 0 – Insight: 0]

Dreadspire’s Call (2-star)

[ Dreadgate Spawn ]

Quality: 2-star

Effect:

— Upon using this card, you can summon a Dreadgate at any location you physically touch. The gate will absorb all types of energy in the surroundings to generate Dreadlings.

— Dreadlings can teleport to you no matter their location upon your call. If dead, they can be respawned by consuming Pulse.

— Feeding magical resources into a Dreadgate will generate stronger Dreadlings.

— Dreadling Legion: 0/10

’This is interesting, Lily. It seems we will have to create more cards based on experience.’

’Yeah. I want to experience this new world already.’

[ After ten seconds, you will be transported to a novice area in the True Reality Chasm. ]

Almond and Lily looked at each other.

’So this other side is called the True Reality Chasm,’ Almond fell into thought.

’The name… it is implying something.’

’Yeah. The chasm that we have to climb to reach the True Reality, perhaps.’

’We will do it.’ Lily’s resolve radiated toward Almond. ’We will not stop until we are at the true pinnacle.’

Almond smiled. ’Of course. I want to see the highest peak with you and etch our thrones there.’

’That’s my darling. You know what I want.’

’Let’s have kids once we establish our clan.’

’Really?’

’Yep.’

’Then we better get strong. I bet our kids will also be crazy strong.’

Almond chuckled. ’No doubt about that.’
