Noah sat cross-legged in the middle of a large hall, his gleaming crimson eyes seemed to be concentrated doing something.
Hundreds of floating crimson-red flames of phantasmal nature floated around him, like red-colored will-o-wisps, they surrounded and seemed to move and do whatever he told me to.
This was the power of Blood Soul Mender, after Noah gave a drop of blood to a soul, it would suddenly obey him.
He was able to do whatever he wanted with these Souls, and after having to feed his Soul Weapon excessively with A-Rank Magic Materials he got from the Guilds he had conquered, he began to feed it, Blood Souls.
Noah now didn't simply need to kill monsters to bring forth souls, he had become capable of seeing them float everywhere, the natural souls of all living beings who had died around the area where he lived which had yet to enter the transmigration cycle.
He called upon them with his Aura, captured them, gave them his blood, and then tamed every single Soul.
And then, he mercilessly used them as materials, feeding them to his Soul Weapon, until it finally managed to reach A-Rank.
The large, crimson-colored metallic bone claw-like gauntlet evolved, changing in shape and becoming bigger and monstrous.
Noah glanced at its status as he equipped it, a malicious grin blossoming from his lips.
…
[Abyssal Blood Demon Bone Claw (A-Rank)] [Soul Weapon]
[Attack Power: 1200]
[Durability: 1200]
[Mana Capacity: 1200]
[Skill(s): [Soul Weapon: - (A)], [Consecutive Blood Slash: - (A)], [Super Self-Regeneration: - (A)], [Blood Domain: - (A)], [Soul Devour: - (A)], [Monstrous Blood Hydra Emperor: - (A)], [Magic Circle Recreation: - (A)], [Magic Circle Registration: - (A)], [Independent Weapon: - (A)]
…
After reaching A-Rank, the weapon gained 1200 in all stats, becoming undoubtedly stronger.
Additionally, all Skills evolved as well, reaching A-Rank, matching with the weapon's Rank.
Soul Weapons would usually not have matching grades with their Skills like this, but Noah's weapon was an exception, of course…
Some of its Skills have improved more than others, although the weapon had yet to acquire the Indestructible Skill that Excalibur possesses, any crack or damage that it could have would quickly regenerate as long as Noah infused Mana into the Soul Weapon.
Aside from this, there was the Blood Domain Skill, which let Noah summoned a Domain of Blood 10 meters around him, with this, he was able to receive a large enhancement to all his Blood-related Skills, Spells, and more.
Additionally, the weapon's Soul Eating Skill became Soul Devour, and it had the power to damage souls as well, just like Noah. By coupling such power with Noah's Soul Devour, he was able to effectively increase the power he could exert against souls, and devour them even easier.
The old Sea Snake Emperor Skill that summoned a giant sea snake made of blood evolved many times until it became capable of summoning many hydra heads from each of the bone claw's fingers, which could be released as many snakes made of blood, or to attack at the spot, or even to wrap something with the giant heads, the possibilities were many.
The weapon had also evolved with Noah's new necessities and proficiency in magic, and it gained the ability to recreate previously registered magic circles, being up to 5, which made it so Noah could conjure spells immediately and without creating magic circles beforehand as long as he registered the magic circle.
And lastly, it gained the power of an Independent Weapon, which could attack and cast Skills by itself indecently of Noah's control over it, virtually making it so he could attack automatically in battle, giving him the chance to do other things with his minds.
"It is outstanding. You and I have gone through a lot…" said Noah, seeing the bone claw as his companion.
Afterward, he summoned a large black and red-colored sword, Excalibur, and compared its stats and Skills with the Bone Claw…
…
[Corrupted Excalibur (S-Rank)] [Soul Weapon]
[Attack Power: 2400]
[Durability: 2400]
[Mana Capacity: 2400]
[Skill(s): [Soul Weapon: - (S)], [Corrupted Divine Soul: - (S)], [Indestructible: - (S)], [Skill Sharing: Wielder: - (S)], [Corrupted Holy Light Beam: - (S)], [Corrupted Holy Light Barrier: - (S)], [Corrupted Holy Light Slash: - (S)], [Corrupted Hero's Blessing: - (S)], [Independent Weapon: - (S)], [Levitation: - (S)], [Telekinesis: - (S)], [Wielder's Call: - (S)], [Corrupted Dark Space Storage: - (S)]
…
"You still have a long way to go, it seems…" thought Noah, as he admired the blade's power.
Excalibur had several abilities that it included within it, although it was a soul Weapon made before the System Existed, after Noah ate its soul, it quickly became part of his System.
One of such Abilities is being an indestructible blade, incapable of being destroyed nor shattered… However, Noah thought that there could be levels of power above S-Rank that could still damage nonetheless and that this "indestructibility" was only held within the blade's rank.
Additionally, the Blade had the power to think and move independently, alongside sharing all of Noah's Skills but with their strength reduced by 50%, however, it was not as swift and accustomed to his Skills as Noah, it could still use the majority of them quite well, becoming a deadly companion that could easily break through anything.
The blade also had three Attack-type Skills which would unleash whenever Noah moved the blade, depending on the pose and attack, a Slash of corrupted holy light, a barrier, or a beam could be generated, the beam was the strongest attack that Excalibur could do, which had enough power to easily pierce a mountain and leave an enormous hole in the middle… however, it costed exorbitant amounts of Mana and would leave Noah completely emptied of it.
The Blade also granted Noah the Hero's Blessing, which changed to Corrupted Hero's Blessing, giving him greater growth potential, and increasing the speed of development of his magic and all other kinds of abilities, even within the System.
Excalibur was able to fly and hover using Levitate, and it could also use Telekinesis to move objects or its own Aura, forming sharp, spear-shaped projectiles.
And last but not least, Excalibur had the power of storing itself within a different space when it was not needed through the Corrupted Dark Space Storage Skill, and also be summoned to the side of his wielder (Noah) through the "Wilder's Calling" Skill, making it even more convenient as a weapon.
Excalibur still lacked Skills that the Blood Claw didn't have, but because it could use most of Noah's Skills with a 50% reduction into their power, it was even more capable.
Noah equipped each weapon in each of his hands, although he often used Excalibur in midair, controlling it through the weapon's Telekinesis.
It has been three days since Noah maxed his Skill Tree of Level IV Noble-born Vampire Count, and he was getting ready to travel to the new Dungeons with his group.
He quickly flew down below to the large hall where his subordinates greeted him, alongside them, there were dozens of more Vampiric Undead all kneeling before his presence. They were all the members of Noah's Guild, and these were not even all, but a fraction of the total amount, the strongest ones he had gathered here.
Everyone was looking at the news before, over a large led screen in the middle of the hall.
In the news, the reporter spoke about the many Gates that had emerged just a few hours ago all around the world…
