Bro, I'm not an Undead!

Chapter 1258: The Order Welcomes A Worthy Master! (2)

Susu'k could hardly believe it.

His attention was wholly attracted to the Second Layer, and as of a few seconds ago, this wasn't by his own will. He was drawn there forcefully.

Something had changed about his master's successor.

The bastard had reached Divinity just now, but there was something else, something unsettling. The giant Strawler had witnessed many beings reaching Divinity in the Null Verse. Even though the progression and nature of Divinity within the Null Verse could be different from the outside world, as his master often theorised, he couldn't imagine that outsiders could make him feel the way he was feeling right now.

Skullius was not an outsider - he was a Null Lifeform - but he progressed by the established system of this reality for sure, as the first Null Life bearer.

If this was the case, his ascent past mortality couldn't have been... shouldn't have been seemed so.... frightening.

It shouldn't have managed to coerce Susu'k into believing that he was already a rival of his master just now!

It didn't make any sense!

'What did he do?!' Susu'k thought. He felt a sense of panic that he could hardly stifle or understand.

As he gazed into the Second Layer, he saw the dark seed within it, almost insignificant- looking save for the waves of chaotic Amras leaking from it, shake violently and then crack. CRACK!

Susu'k gulped.

CRACK!

Susu'k's body twitched.

The dark seed exploded and the sophisticated existence it had been forming and perfecting started to take shape.

Before Susu'k knew it, he was diving down towards the Second Layer at top speed. In no time at all, the Strawler streaked through the viscous atmosphere to reach Skullius' forming body. Susu'k then stood with his head hung low, waiting with baited breath.

He wouldn't dare idle in the Third Layer when his new master - who had grown way more monstrous than he imagined, and in less than half the time he expected - was establishing himself in his full authority.

All too suddenly, Susu'k had lost his right to casually defy this master.

Of course, said new master didn't know that Susu'k was here. The guidance field was still spelling out his boons from Divinity, the resounding successful of each of his phantoms' machinations and more unexpected benefits.

[Primary existence, Default Body, 'Hybrid Warmoth' awakens...]

Skullius felt himself obtain a tangible form.

He felt refreshed and calm, unnaturally so.

He took a breath.

At once, it was as though all his faculties were activated. They brimmed to life.

He felt his arms, legs, torso and head.

He felt especially light, but at the same, it was as though an otherworldly weight was exerted on the world around him from his body.

Skullius could see everything despite noticing that he was yet to open his eyes. He wasn't employing any sensing technique, but everything was so vivid around him. He could sense everything in the Empyrean Hatcher. Heck, he could sense everything in the Bosom, the Treasury and the Pestilent Vault!

Everything was focused on him.

A refreshing sort of energy that was both familiar and unfamiliar suddenly thrummed from

Skullius.

It felt like genuine Divine energy, but also different. It felt personal and leagues richer.

Oddly, it wasn't contained in a core, and it wasn't stowed in his body, as he could feel with his singular, massive mana core.

There... there was something that Skullius had other than a body and a soul now.

It was hard to place a finger where it was exactly. It seemed like some vague boundary between the soul and body. Quite honestly, it took Skullius some effort to sense it at all. The skill required to perceive this space reminded him of the sensation he felt when he attempted

Mortal Binding.

Was that practise specifically so that he would be able to perceive this odd space?

In any case, the Exora Amras he had received, which, through the effects of the modified seed,

had been bumped up three times to the Beginner Sage Affluent, was stored in this odd space. It slowly revolved in place like a pool of cool water, bright and crystal-like. Hints of white and

blue were prevalent in it.

Skullius found this interesting.

Very interesting.

Exora Amras was the fuel for all exercisable powers outside a world: Andori, Physiques and

Parlous Natures and more.

Fascinating indeed.

Skullius opened his eyes. freewebnøvel.com

They still did not perceive a thing. They were blind.

He smiled. He could have chosen to use a Creed to restore his sight, but he didn't bother. That would be a waste of two or three Creeds.

He disregarded Susu'k and began wondering how he should take a look at himself to ascertain

the appearance of his new Hybrid Warmoth form.

'Ah. Of course,' Skullius thought.

His soul moved out of his body seamlessly. Despite how small and battered it was, it looked tangible with a blue-ish texture. Pretty gems, Creeds, shone within it, giving it a wondrous, dreamlike appearance. It had some defined features, but its face was oddly... distorted.

Skullius felt over it.

'I suppose I will have to claim the other missing piece for my soul to get fully defined,' he thought. 'With Doom Factor 2 approaching, I imagine this really is the case.'

Skullius drifted from his body.

He tilted his head and smiled.

His body reacted the same way, as though it had a mind of its own.

"Well, you look good," Skullius said, stroking his chin and analysing all his physical features.
