"Damn! What kind of broken skillset is this?! Skill Evolution [EX]?! Who in the Heavens made this thing?!" Hereswith complained as she browsed through the skills that were listed in Lux's Soul Book.
A second later, she complained once again after seeing Lux's special body constitution. The beautiful elf thought she misread the information on the Soul Book, but after reading it thrice, she found out that what she saw was indeed a reality.
"What kind of broken body constitution is this Immortal Dragon's Conqueror's Legacy?! You can even spit Dragon's Breath?!" Hereswith asked again. "If I had this when I was alive, I would have fried those d*cks from the Divine Army of Light. They wouldn't have been able to kill me! You **** why do you have these **** abilities that defy all logic!"
Lux, who was doing push-ups while Hereswith was sitting on his back, didn't know what to say.
The first thing that the beautiful Elf demanded of him was to see his Soul Book so that she would better understand what he was capable of.
However, after seeing its contents, Hereswith once again showered Lux with curses and spittle that were flying in every direction.
"Life is so unfair," Hereswith said before spanking Lux's bum, making the Half-Elf cry out in pain. "You are unfair! What have you been eating and drinking all your life? You little c*nt! I want that too!"
Eiko, who was eating some peanuts at the side, looked up at the beautiful Elf that was hurting her Papa and frowned.
"Grandmaster, please don't speak vulgarities in front of Eiko," Lux said as he endured the physical and emotional damage from the beautiful Elf who was sitting on his back. "She's still young and there's a high chance that she will start to imitate you."
"Oh, no, we don't want that happening," Hereswith replied before looking at the Baby Slime. "Eiko, sweetheart, girls shouldn't say vulgar words or shout profanities, okay? I'm just doing this because your Papa is a **** who needs to get his **** in the right place. Don't imitate me, okay?"
"Un!" Eiko nodded.
However, whether she truly understood what Hereswith told her or not was another matter.
A few minutes later, Hereswith closed Lux's Soul Book and gave a very long and deep sigh.
"Maybe it's because you have these skills that you were allowed to become a Heaven's Necromancer," Hereswith said. "Even though my skills are stronger than yours, the potential that you possess is higher. Those **** Gods. Why can't they just give me a break?!"
Although the time he spent with Hereswith was rather short, Lux believed that he had an inkling as to why the beautiful Elf couldn't become a Heaven's Necromancer.
'The Heavens might have blacklisted her from this Profession because of her curse-filled mouth,' Lux thought.
Hereswith looked like a literal Goddess, and he was sure that everyone who saw her for the first time would think the same way.
However, all of them would have their image of her shattered, just like what happened to him, the moment she opened her mouth to start hurtling vulgarities at the pitiful soul that happened to be in front of her.
In fact, Lux was quite impressed by how his Master, Gaap, was able to survive becoming Hereswith's disciple. The time he spent with Gaap was longer, but he never heard his Master curse the same way that Hereswith did.
"Master, I have a question?" Lux asked. "What does push-up have to do with my training?"
"It doesn't," Hereswith replied. "I just need you to stay put for a bit while I read your Soul Book."
Although Lux's Necromancer Training hadn't started, he already felt like giving up.
"Well then, let me see your Named Creatures, as well as the members of your Covenant," Hereswith ordered. "We are Necromancers. The stronger our subordinates are, the stronger we are. Only third-rate Necromancers focus on the quantity of their summons. They are the types that the more Undead they can summon, the stronger their army is.
"However, even an army numbered in tens of thousands would instantly turn to dust when faced with a handful of High-Ranking Rankers, which the Divine Army of Light use to hunt those who practice our profession."
Lux nodded his head in understanding and summoned all of the main combatants of his army.
Diablo, Ishtar, Pazuzu, Orion, Asmodeus, Lazarus, Bedivere, Zagan, Revon, ALL-MITE, Shax, Draven, and King Leoric.
Hereswith narrowed her gaze as she looked at Lux's strongest fighters and nodded her head in approval.
"Not bad for an Initiate," Hereswith stated. "With this lineup, you will be able to hold your ground against a High-Ranker. Now, show me the bulk of your main army and the things that they can do."
With a wave of his hand, Lux summoned his Skeleton Gangbangers, Skeleton Arcane Archers, Liches, Steel Golems, and Plague Wing Gargoyles.
After showing his summons, Lux ordered his Skeleton Gangbangers and the Steel Golems to merge, forming two Hecatoncheires that towered over their figures.
"You get a passing grade," Hereswith commented after seeing Lux's main army. "So your clones as well as that Archlich over there could summon this army as well, right?"
"Yes," Lux replied. "My clones, including Eiko's and Asmodeus' clones, can summon an Undead Army as well."
Hereswith clicked her tongue in annoyance before scratching her hair.
Due to his strong sense of hearing, Lux was able to hear Hereswith mutter 'Unfair C*nt', under her breath, but he simply pretended that he didn't hear anything.
"Since all of them are already here, I will impart to them a skill that they must master as soon as possible," Hereswith stated. "This skill is called Death God's Aura. This is a skill that I invented after combining the two skills, Unholy Aura, and Holy Aura. Since you are a Heaven's Necromancer, you need to master this skill as well."
Hereswith snapped her fingers, and several beams of light shot out from her forehead. These lights flew toward Lux's and his subordinates' foreheads, allowing them to directly learn the skill that she was intended to impart to them.
< Skill Evolution [EX] detected a new Skill. >
– Since the skill Death God's Aura is a Legacy Skill, it will automatically be upgraded to Death God's Aura [EX]
— Your Named Creatures, as well as the members of your Necromancer's Covenant will also learn the upgraded version of this skill.
< Death God's Aura [EX] >
— Increase your attack and defense by 100%
— Increase your movement and attack speed by 100%
— 100% Resistance to Dark, Necrotic, Holy, Life, and Divine Magic
— You are immune to the effects of Fear and Intimidation.
— Wild Undead Monsters that aren't under someone's control will not take the initiative to attack you.
The added bonus of the Death God's Aura [EX] was good, but that wasn't all. Lux had a special title that was called Lord of Death's Army.
Similar to Death God's Aura, this special buff also increased the attack, and defense of his Army, making them stronger than regular Undead.
< Lord of Death's Army >
(Profession Exclusive Title)
– Increase the Physical and Magical Damage of Lux Von Kaizer's Named Creatures by 100%
– Increase the Physical and Magical Damage of Lux Von Kaizer's Necromancer Covenant by 100%
– Increase the Physical and Magical Damage of Lux Von Kaizer's Summons by 50%
– All creatures under Lux Von Kaizer's Command will have a 100% Increase in Defense.
Simply put, Eiko, Lux's Named Creatures, as well as the members of his Covenant, had a 200% increase in their attacks and defense after the two skills were combined. They also had a 100% increased movement and attack speed buff which would further improve their performance in battle.
Although this wasn't as broken as Aina's two Unique Skills, it was still good and made Lux's subordinates stronger than ever before.
"…. This Skill Evolution [EX] skill is truly disgusting," Hereswith complained after seeing the changes in Lux's Soul Book. "It took me five years to learn this skill. However, not only did you learn it right away, you even have the upgraded version. Hey, Lux, can I slap you?"
Hereswith gave Lux a very sweet smile while motioning for him to come closer to her.
Since the Half-Elf wasn't a masochist, he firmly shook his head and said, "Sorry, but I'll pass."
Even so, that wasn't enough to save him from getting kicked in the bum by the furious High-Elf, who once again hurled a storm of expletives at him while constantly complaining about how unfair and how broken his abilities were.
