Rebirth: Tyrant's New Reality

Arkhen also completed his daily quest as he saw the notification after leaving Hell Springs Hill.

Since it was already 4 AM, both of them went to a good food stall to eat breakfast.

The towns in this world are forever awake because people can stay awake for two or more days depending on their class stages, making their sleeping patterns vary, and making most of the stores and places open 24/7.

While eating, Arkhen suddenly saw Velshi appearing in front of him, the cute ball with big eyes and wings.

'What?'

[Something unfortunate happened with Sierra. She failed at the last moment and will have to redo the 3rd trial again].

'What?! How? I saw that she had a very good set of skills and a superpower acquired from the 2nd trial. Moreover, her combat ability and combat awareness are also top-notch. She is supposed to be the least likely to fail.'

[Yep. It's just…her luck was bad. The last boss had a passive where it would explode after dying. So…Sierra died after killing the last boss because of that passive. She is now redoing the trial in a new random location after reviving].

The system gave each person a different set of locations and monsters in the trial. Moreover, such a deadly passive was something nobody could expect. Even more so for Sierra, Arkhen, and others from the Gravel realm, who had yet to see the exotic powers of higher realms.

'Damn, there are such passives? Gotta be careful after killing monsters as well,' Arkhen thought with a wry smile.

[You can usually sense that because the energy reading becomes chaotic and high even after killing a monster, indicating some kind of power activation after death. As a result, you must remain focused and act quickly to defend yourself.].

…

Days passed as Arkhen and Jeizy continued training and practicing at the Hidden Dragon Den club.

In the next two days, everyone was speechless at Arkhen's way of fighting!

All of his skills failed! He couldn't execute his attacking or defending skills even a single time!

"Man, how long are you going to keep that up?" Gard asked with a wry smile. "Just what are you experimenting?"

"Cough…" Arkhen spat some blood since he failed to block the attack as his defense-type skill, Aegis of Life Conversion, dispersed quickly instead of working because of the chaos force.

He couldn't absorb this attack in his body and turn it into chaos force since he was already nearly full even after using chaos force in the skill.

If he still tried to absorb it and broke the limit of containing chaos force in him, it would result in a dangerous situation according to the description of the passive.

After getting up from the floor with a stubborn expression, he said with fires of determination burning in his eyes, "Continue fighting. I will make this successful no matter what!"

"But what?"

"You don't need to know that. But you will know the result when I finally succeed in properly executing my intended skills."

'I am very close! I feel like I almost grasped that method of properly infusing chaos force into the skills to boost them,' Arkhen thought.

[Yes, my lord. I ran some theories because I faintly know what chaos affinity can do when you make it to higher levels].

'Oh? What did you theorize?'

[My lord. I won't say the theory results because I don't want to limit you. But one thing for sure is that using Chaos Force in tandem with skills and other things will result in…chaotic possibilities and increase your combat prowess]

[But this is a talk of a long, long time later. You are too weak and have yet to make any progress in chaos affinity to see even 1% of the desired result I theorized].

'Hahaha, I am already fired up. But still, thanks].

Arkhen returned his 100% focus on succeeding as time passed.

As dawn approached, Arkhen's body suddenly trembled as he absorbed an attack in his body after failing another skill.

However, that failure finally connected the final dot he needed to succeed!

"Sushina! Be careful with my next attack," Arkhen said with a wide devilish grin as he finally found a way to infuse chaos force in his skill and boost it!

"Be careful? As if you are going to execute it properly," Sushina said as she rolled her eyes. But internally, she thought, 'Is he confident that he succeeded in whatever experiment he was doing?'

Although Sushina said that to Arkhen, she still became more focused. Half a second later, she saw Arkhen waving his hand and felt a familiar energy reading.

She had been sparring with Arkhen for the last many days, so she knew that it was the skill that conjures a demonic hand to grab them. 'This skill? It's the weakest of his skill even when he executed it properly on the first three days when he sparred with us. Everyone could easily break it.'

As expected, a big demonic hand appeared on her right side before attempting to grab her. However, her eyes turned wide in the next second.

"T-This!"

*Swooosh*

The demonic hand's speed and power were increased significantly! The dark purple demonic hand with eccentric patterns on it also had gray-black veins-like patterns now! Such vein-like patterns were not visible before!

"Haha, what do you think now?" Arkhen asked with a laugh.

"Damn, he succeeded!"

"The energy readings I am feeling are way more powerful than before! It's similar to SS-rank skill!"

"Indeed!"

[Daily Quest completed. 100 reality essence gained. 1 shop coupon gained].

'Damn, a shop coupon finally? Now I have four coupons, so I should be able to buy four items,' Arkhen thought as he observed Sushina, who was tightly grasped by his demonic hand.

Sushina burst out her power in raw energy to destroy the demonic hand but couldn't succeed like before! The demonic hand was slightly dispersed but not completely, as it still grasped her tightly.

[A/N: I made a mistake in the past many chapters regarding this demonic hand skill. It's not called <Demonic Grasp>. Instead, it's called <Violent Grasp>. From now on, I'll be using <Violent Grasp>]

[Violent Grasp]

-Effect: Within a 1-kilometer radius, you can conjure a demonic hand of any size (more size, more consumption of primal energy).

-Traits: The people grasped by this demonic hand will have their stats and EP reduced by 10% as long as they are grasped.

The trait of this skill was not working after Arkhen ascended to the 1st realm because this skill was of Gravel Realm standard.

Arkhen had to upgrade it to 1st realm standard, and Velshi told him he could do that after entering the Doom tower.

He had gotten a Doom Key to enter the Doom tower after completing his first main quest and was going to enter the tower after entering the sect.

On the other hand, Sushina managed to break the <Violent Grasp> skill after another second and wryly smiled at Arkhen as she said, "So this was your experiment? I sensed some different kind of power in this skill… Were you trying to use a different type of enhancement force to enhance your skills further?"

"Yep. Now all of my skills are a notch more powerful!" Arkhen said with a laugh, "come on! Attack me. Let's see how much my strongest skill gets a boost with this."

Sushina nodded as she decided to use her most powerful skill as well.

Arkhen used his <Aegis of Life Conversion> and the orbs were now more powerful with chaotic black veins patterns inside them!
