Chapter 21 - 2 Weeks From Meeting - Status Screen

Five months passed in a flash for Ash and Vaeloria who were inside of the Ever-Calm Haven. During this time the two rarely talked and kept their distance from one another. Well, it was primarily Vaeloria who did this and Ash only respected her decisions. However, that was just for now because he had finally found a fix to her problem.

Currently standing inside the lesser chamber with a satisfied grin on his face, was Ash as his messy dual colored hair shimmered under the soft light. He was shirtless showcasing his chiseled abs and biceps. In front of him was his status panel and on it showed all the progress he had made during these 18 months.

---Newly Gained Skills and Talents---

[Eternal Craving |Paradox + Lust + Phoenix Fire| - A single spoken word becomes an undying flame that burns away all past loyalties and rebirths every listener as someone who has desired Ash across countless lives. Works on any being below SS rank. Range is 1,000km]

[Crown of Dawn |Cinderlight + Lust + Dream| - The user's gentle torch-glow spreads for 400km. Every soul that sees the light permanently surrenders a piece of their core; the fragments condense into a living crown of warm flame that amplifies his presence and charm.]

[Lunar Apotheosis |Lunar + Phoenix Fire + Illusion| - Silver rebirth-flames sweep the battlefield. Victims burn to ash in perfect illusionary moons, then rise reborn with silver eyes and absolute devotion, believing Ash is their only god.]

[Genesis Reforge |Paradox + Lust + Phoenix Fire + Dream| - Gives user the ability to sever Paths/vows for a willingly target. 

The User will then be able rewrite or change nine of the words present in the vow.]

--Talents

[Abyssal Crescent |Derives from Abyssal Selene Bloodline| - (Passive) Every time moonlight (natural or summoned) touch Ash's skin, his wounds close instantly, severed limbs regrow in seconds, and fatal injuries are rewound to the moment before impact.]

[Myriad Throne Covenant |Derives from Eternal Bloodline of Bonds| - (Passive) - Every being who has ever formed a bond with Ash (Nia, Vaeloria, future allies/concubines) becomes a living "throne" in his soul.

The user gains 10 % Existence Level each time they reach a new major rank.

If any bonded dies, the user can instantly revive them at full power once, no matter the state of the corpse (once-per-bonded lifetime).]

[Absolute Collapse |Derives from Singularity Genesis Physique| -The User chooses a point within 1,000 km and snaps his fingers. Everything within a chosen radius (max 500 km) is instantly and perfectly collapsed into a true gravitational singularity the size of a grain of rice.

-Time inside the radius freezes for 9 seconds from an outside perspective.

-Living beings experience those 9 seconds as nine years of perfect, crushing darkness while their existence is compressed layer by layer.

When the singularity implodes, one of two things happens (User decides):

-Total erasure: nothing, not even souls or records, ever existed there.

-Controlled release: the collapsed mass/energy explodes outward as a directed nova under Ash's complete command.]

"Shit, not even I realized just how much I truly gained. This isn't even counting the sword technique of Vaeloria either." He said in satisfaction. Though it was a lot, it meant he was strong. Before this all started, he was just a weak ant amongst thousands of kingdoms.

Now however he was nothing more than a walking calamity. 

A beautiful monster. And now it was finally to put his plan into action and take the world of Elaris by storm. However, before that he had a fox to help and finally make his. 

In not just body and soul, but in mind too

With this in mind he finally left the training hall heading for Vaeloria.
