Lux slowly opened his eyes, slowly regaining his senses.
He could feel great power coursing through his body, a sensation he had never felt before, making him sigh due to how pleasant it felt.
The Half-Elf was supposed to only become an E-Ranker, but due to his Profession, which triggered an otherworldly phenomenon, all of his stats were raised to unprecedented levels.
Right now, Lux had the strength of a D-Ranker, which allowed him to jump to the next stage after his breakthrough.
However, just as soon as he was about to check his Soul Book, a series of notifications flashed in front of his eyes, which gave him a pleasant surprise.
< The requirements for the evolution of your Named Creatures have been met. >
< Their Evolution will now begin! >
Diablo, Ishtar, Pazuzu, Orion, Asmodeus, Lazarus, and Draven all materialized in front of Lux.
These were the Named Creatures that were not part of his Covenant, but the majority of them had accompanied the Half-Elf since he was just a beginner.
Unlike the members of his Covenant who were already powerful, Diablo and the others had yet to reach their full potential.
But now that Lux had become a Ranker, they could now undergo their next breakthrough. This would grant them the power they rightfully deserved as their Master's swords and shields, which they would use against those who wish to harm their Master.
A minute later, the golden threads that were wrapped around the bodies of his subordinates ripped apart, revealing new and more powerful forms.
At this exact moment, several rows of text appeared in front of the Half-Elf, telling him that his subordinates had successfully completed their evolution.
< Since you have granted them their names, so will you grant your Progenitor Powers upon them as well. The stats of your Named Creatures, with the exception of the members of your Covenant, will now have the same number of combined Stat Points that you do. >
< Congratulations! Your First Born, Diablo, has evolved into Death Sovereign! >
< Congratulations! Your Second Born, Ishtar, has evolved into War Goddess! >
< Congratulations! Your Third Born, Pazuzu, has evolved to Divine Guardian! >
< Congratulations! Your Fourth Born, Orion, has evolved into Ancient Adamantine Golem! >
< Congratulations! Your Fifth Born, Asmodeus, has evolved into Lich King! >
< Congratulations! Your Sixth Born, Lazarus, has evolved into Ancient Flame Skull! >
< Congratulations, Your Seventh Born, Draven, has evolved into Shadow Sovereign! >
While they were still hovering in the air, all of them knelt in front of Lux, paying their homage to their Lord and Master.
A moment later, several beams of light landed beside his seven subordinates, showing the members of his Covenant, including General Garret who was supposed to help manage the building process of Lux's town in the Outer Reaches.
Something had called out to him from the horizon, so he answered its call. The next moment, he found himself staring at Lux, whose aura was that of a Ranker.
With a single glance, Garret quickly figured that Lux had managed to successfully become a Ranker. However, he also felt that the Half-Elf was far stronger than the other Low-Rankers that he had seen in the past.
This made him wonder what kind of blessings he received from the world.
Bedivere, who was the first member of Lux's Covenant, looked at his Liege with a smile on his face before kneeling to pay his respect to his Lord and Master.
Garret, Zagan, Revon, ALL-MITE, and King Leoric did the same, placing their right fists over their chest as a gesture to honor the person that they all served.
"""We of your Legion swore to protect you. While we live, none shall defeat you!"""
Lux gave his Named Creatures and members of his Covenant a nod of acknowledgment before making a gesture for all of them to stand.
"Rise, brave men, and women of my Legion," Lux said. "Going forward, I feel that we will be facing greater challenges than we've ever faced in the past. Stronger opponents who will definitely push us to our limits. For the sake of my mission, I ask that all of you continue to stand by my side.
"Swords may break and shields may shatter, but no matter what happens, I know that your resolve and determination will never waver. No words need to be spoken between us all. For what we strive for is one for all."
Lux smiled for he knew that wherever he went, his trusted subordinates would always be there for him.
Just as he thought that everything had calmed down, several rows of text appeared in front of him again, making him wonder if the World had decided to give him the greatest blessing ever.
< Your Special Body Constitution, Immortal Dragon Conqueror's Legacy has received two Rank Upgrades, raising its Rating to C+ >

< Your Skeleton Arcane Archers will now evolve into Nightstalkers. >
< Your Steel Golems will now evolve into Jade Golems. >
< Your Liches will now evolve into Lich Revenants. >
< The Blessings of the World has officially ended. >
After reading the last row of text that appeared in front of him, Lux felt as if he could single-handedly clear the previous missions in the Sacred Dungeon on his own.
With the army under his command, it would be very easy for him to overcome any enemy army unless they had dozens of High Rankers or a Saint among their ranks.
Lorelei, who was observing Lux and his subordinates with a solemn gaze, finally understood that the Half-Elf hadn't fought her using his full power.
Deep inside, she felt both frustrated and relieved because her opponent didn't take her too seriously when they were engaged in a duel.
However, there was only one problem.
Their duel had ended before a winner could be decided.
But Lorelei knew that if Dracul hadn't interfered in their battle so that he could kill Lux, the winner of their duel would have definitely been the Half-Elf, who seemed to have become more charming and handsome after finishing his breakthrough.
