Bro, I'm not an Undead!

Chapter 1249: Forging The Strongest...(4)

The giant glowing seed was connected to the throngs of Ju`wtte and Levin. It was now added to the fusion process.

"Now what?" Skullius asked the phantoms. He felt exhausted, even though he was just a

consciousness.

"It's time for the skills," a phantom said. "And for this part, we'll need the genuine Divine energy within the Fallen Reincarnator's Shadow and the Creeds stowed within our original soul."

Skullius had questions, but he drew towards him the Fallen Reincarnator's Shadow and his souls.

Skullius first checked the bow spear.

He had used up its 50 million units of genuine Divine energy all at once during his battle with his alter by creating a Rule that allowed him to see through his possessed self's antics. Some of the energy had regenerated: there were currently 456,990 units of Divine energy.

The phantoms deemed it good enough for what they hoped to do.

Skullius then checked in with his original soul.

Since his alter had reached the Incandescent Stage, he had been able to generate Creeds with his soul. They appeared as beautiful crystal gems swimming within it. Because of his Masterpieces, which gave him roughly one creed per individual, depending on whether they were an expert or a common person, the number of Creeds amassed was absurd!

Skullius clicked his tongue.

He already knew roughly how many Creeds he had after acquiring his alter's memories. 3,320,003 Creeds!

Common folk made into Masterpieces didn't count for much. Roughly three or four of them equated to one Creed earned. If this hadn't been the case, Skullius would have gotten a lot more Creeds.

"What are we going to use these Creeds for?" he asked the phantoms.

"There are skills we need to modify and automatic systems we need to create. For now, though, add half of the genuine Divine energy into the seed."

Skullius had the Fallen Reincarnator's Shadow transfer half of its energy into the seed, as he was told. The potent golden energy gave the seed a brighter radiance.

"Good! Now, let's take those two mana skills the guidance field wanted to fuse and mutate before. It will be better to get them out of the way," a phantom said.

Skullius dragged [Mana All-Father] and [Sorcery of Essence] close to him. They were connected by strokes of Levin and Ju`wtte that were eager to mix the two abilities together. "Add a hundred units of Divine energy and then allow them to merge."

Skullius did so. The potent golden energy coated the two skills and then he allowed them to meet in the middle. Ju`wtte and Levin sparked violently where the skills met.

['Sorcery of Essence' and 'Mana All-Father' have begun the process of fusion. Processing...] "Good. Now, follow this blueprint we made. Attach together the strings of Ju`wtte and Levin exactly the way it's shown," a phantom said.

The blueprint it was referring to was not physical. It was rather a mental image it passed to Skullius.

"Huh?" Skullius was confused. "What is this? What are you trying to do with [Greatest Antiphon of Malignance], [Benevolent Melanoid Prince], [Infinite Sword God: Primordial Sword] and [Greatest Celestial Counterfeit]? Are you trying to merge them? Is that a good idea? And why are you adding the essence of Grand Fire, Integral Time and all these other... WHAT IS THIS?! You want me to add all the remaining Null EXP too?!"

"Your pea brain wouldn't understand. Just do it!"

Skullius mumbled irritably.

He was very anxious at this point.

He was losing some faith in his phantoms.

Weren't they getting a bit too creative?

In the end, Skullius did everything as the phantoms said - reluctantly. He connected the skills depicted on the mental image along with certain essences he had high affinities with. He then added the last of the billions of the Null Exp he had left, though after several moments of hesitation.

The blueprint the phantoms had made reminded him of the great masterpiece of mana and Null Life Essence instructions he had crafted in order to give Baddan a new technique before leaving on the voyage to Edagon.

But what was this? Was this something similar?

It was especially curious that the phantoms had added [Greatest Celestial Counterfeit] - the skill responsible for giving him a flesh form - to this mix. What was that all about?

It took Skullius twenty minutes to fully map out the blueprint with Levin, Ju`wtte, mana and Null Life Essence - as was described.

"Good. Now connect Caxellac's soul to the Fallen Reincarnator's Shadow and Warmoth's Spine, and add them to the mix as well. Make sure they are part of the fusion process."

"What?!" Skullius cried. "What the... That doesn't make any-"

"Skullius, my dear. After we are done, after this is all complete, you will be kowtowing to us several times a day. I promise. But for now, just listen to us, will you?"

"Get your vague ass on it!"

The phantoms once again pushed Skullius without giving him much of an explanation.

He sighed.

Why was he adding his two best weapons? He couldn't see the vision. How would this help? He did it anyway, however. Soon both his Transcendent weapons (the Spine had been elevated to this grade through the merigold Ju`wtte during his battle with his alter) to the fusion

process.

"Now, for the last piece. Create these three Creeds," a phantom said and sent a mental image of the Creeds Skullius was to actualise. They were rather lengthy and had extreme detail to

them. They might have been chapters from a book.

Reading through them, Skullius' nearly fainted.

He didn't even know how he would go about asking his phantoms what had possessed them to think of these ideas.

However, by reading the Creeds, Skullius got a clearer idea of the end goal; not the entire

goal, but at least a third of it.

"You guys really thought ahead. Way ahead," he said, and his phantoms laughed.

The first Creed Skullius had to make was the simplest.

It essentially duplicated all of Skullius' skills and abilities. Once Skullius made the Creed,

copies of the original skills were made away from the fusion process.

The other Creeds were hard to describe succinctly and were rather broad.

Each cost Skullius more than 200,000 Creeds to actualise.

Immediately after he spoke them into existence, the magical structure he had been forced to create with the skills, essences, Null experience and weapons became one small blot of

radiant light that was fed into the seed.

The seed turned from its golden shade to an ashen one at once.

skullius felt uneasy.

What they were creating here... was it safe?

"Good, good!" a phantom said eerily and sent Skullius a mental image of skills that were to be modified before the fusion. "We are going to do something else with the new affinities we acquired, as well as the Seeds of the Fruit of World Myths: Limitless Paradox, Seramoro, Melding Stitches and Delight's Pursuit. It's hard to use them without the Phantasmic Retainers, but that's only for a mortal body. Our body won't be so mortal. We will have all the

leeway to use the Seeds as we please!"

Skullius shuddered at this.

He quickly began modifying the skills he was shown as he had been told.

That's right.

From here on out, he really wasn't going to be mortal anymore.
