After wearing the ring, I smiled faintly as I felt the power of its effects being enhanced. When I finally calmed myself from what I saw with the Holy Spirits, I looked into the ring.

[Description]

An incredible Holy Magic Ring made using the incredible element of Orichalcum, blessed by the holy spirits to be one of the strongest in the world of Spiritias. Forged by the power of the Holy Spirits and a blessed Blacksmith, it contains the ability to protect the wielder from demons and also to enhance their power against them. A special ring designed to fight demons by the church of the Holy Spirits. It can only be worn by those that are chosen by the rings.

The Ring has now been enhanced by the power of the Holy Spirits, raising its Grade from Lesser Mythical to Mythical, all Bonus Stats and Ability Effects have been enhanced accordingly.

-----

And not only that, but the very Grimoire has changed. Its red color had not changed, but it now gained golden decorations over its entire body, and the red gem in the middle was shattered, as a new gem, glowing with yellow light emerged from within. Its pages fluttered, showing the new changes.

[The Grimoire has been completely purified by the power of the Holy Spirits!]

[You gained the [Blessing of the Twelve Holy Spirits]!]

[Affinity to all Elements has increased]

[The power of your Spirits and Familiars has been enhanced]

[You can now summon +1 Spirit with each Spirit Orb Rank]

[You can now Learn Skills faster]

[The Level of the [Hard Worker: Lv6] Skill has been increased to Level 10!]

-----

[Hard Worker: Lv10]

Skill Proficiency: --/--

A special Skill that only those that endlessly work hard can acquire. Skill Requirements to unlock the Skill to be exchanged for Skill Points has been filled. Learnable only through Skill Points.

Increases Skill Proficiency and Experience Points earned by +200%. The harder you work, the more payback you will receive, but the greater the challenge will become.

-----

Not only was I given the privilege of summoning an extra Spirit with each Spirit Rank, meaning I can not only summon one of Asmodeus ancient allies, but two now, but I was also given the Hard Worker Skill at Level 10? They really intervened more than I imagined.

I guess that seeing how many things they had gifted to me in my birthday, I cannot really try to go against these bastards now. Allies are allies at the end. My major motivation in this world was to destroy the invading demons and the towers from the beginning anyways, our goals… merely aligned.

[You acquired the [Holy Spirit's Chosen: Lv1] Title Skill!]

And above all, there was this new Title Skill… It made me feel slightly disgusted, as I hated the "chosen" and "hero" tropes that these kind of worlds always have. But I guess I really have no choice if I want to kill Lucifer one day.

-----

[Holy Spirit's Chosen: Lv1]

Skill Proficiency: 0/10000

A Title only given to those who have been Blessed by all Twelve Holy Spirits. A chosen one is given the Affinity to all the elements the Holy Spirits possess, while acquiring several new enhancements. Increases Stats by +10% with each Skill Level (invisible buff), Elemental Magic Damage now gains the Spiritual Element added, HP, MP, Spiritual Essence, Soul Essence, and Ki recover naturally at thrice the speed. Skills can be learned more swiftly. Skill Proficiency and EXP earned is enhanced by +20% with each Skill Level…. Amongst many other boosts. To raise the level of this Title, defeat the enemies of the Holy Spirits, demons.

-----

This is exactly what I needed. They were right, with this boost, the curse of Lucifer is almost completely cancelled. And the higher the level rises, the more boosts I'll have on top of canceling Lucifer's blessing debuff altogether…

"You look kind of different… Blake, are you alright?" Wondered Erika behind me.

"Yeah, it is as if there's… something. I don't really know." Said Eric.

"Yeah, and did his ring just glowed brightly?" Asked Chris.

-n0ve1、com "Ah, I guess that must have meant I got the approval of the Holy Spirits." I said with a smile.

"I-I guess…" Said Elizabeth, narrowing her eyes at me. "Though there's something…"

It would be better to not tell them about this, it might take too much of a fuss if I were revealed I was given their blessings.

"Anyways, thanks a lot for your gifts guys." I said. "Let's enjoy the food mom and dad made for everyone!"

Acting slightly merrily, I quickly convinced everyone to forget what they saw. Although knowing them, they might end up annoying me over it eventually. Nonetheless, we continued celebrating not only my birthday but our departure towards a new life, filled with new opportunities. The beginning of a new journey, perhaps.

Minutes became hours, and hours went by like the wind. These moments of warmth and happiness were treasured inside of my heart, yet still, the sense of danger that the Holy Spirits gave to me over Lucifer couldn't be easily shaken away.

Perhaps thanks to that interaction, now, more than ever, I felt the motivation to move forward. This adventurer's academy is directly connected with dungeons, my primary source of EXP, and I've also learned that certain classes even go into expeditions to the Demon Tower, my primary target…
