The Power of Fusion was incredible, it didn't only allow me to combine items, but also skill effects, and even spells and skills together into even larger and devastating powers.

lightsΝοvel With that, I was able to conjure one of my most famous spells of my previous life, the [Blood Snake Demon God: Jormungandr]! I had only used it a couple of times against true behemoths.

Its effects were truly devastating and huge, summoning an enormous storm of crimson clouds and then bringing forth four of these gigantic snakes that can block most magic attacks, while draining away all the blood and energy of a target…

"Perhaps it was a bit of an overkill…" I sighed, sitting over the giant Hydra's corpse as I checked my Grimoire.

Ding!

[All your Stats have increased. You Earned Bonus Stat Points and Skill Points.]

[New Spiritual Energy and Mana is flowing across your body!]

[Your Mana has increased by +3000]

[Your Intelligence has increased by +2000]

[Your Spirit has increased by +80]

Not only I was four levels from reaching Max Level, but my Spirit Orb had finally reached Peak Stage, giving me yet another bonus to Mana, Intelligence, and Spirit Stats.

"The higher my Spirit Stat becomes, the stronger my Spirits grow too." I said to myself, checking my Spiritual Mana Aura emerging from my body. "All my Stats had grown a lot… How is everyone else?"

"Fine…" Elfriedden sighed. "Ugh, can't we take a break already? We are almost at the end!"

"I-I'm exhausted…" Eric was resting over the floor.

"I am not that tired, but I suppose we should rest for now before confronting the final boss, master." Eleanora had already gone back to her normal form.

"I suppose you're not wrong." I nodded, my form having already returned to normal several minutes ago. "So? How was that spell? Did that bring you back some memories?"

"Fufu, it was fantastic." She whispered to my ears. "It made me remember that time you destroyed the Calamity of Planet Zerzerian and were praised as a God by the inhabitants, hehe."

"Oh… I do recall a bit of that…" I felt a bit embarrassed. "It makes me wonder how these people are doing…"

"Well, I'm sure that not that bad? You freed the entire Universe from the Demons, even if you were defeated, they were all Sealed except Lucifer, if they ever began a new invasion, it would take them a long while to fight back, especially if we take into consideration all the allies you left behind and strengthened before that final battle." Eleanora spoke to me through telepathy.

"Right…" I nodded. "Let's hope for the best for them. Eventually, if I ever get the ability to do so, I might go to the stars, and see how the Universe out there is going… Though, to be honest, I already want to retire and just stay in Spiritias and form a family with my beautiful mistresses."lightsnovel

"Fufu, you've surely changed from back then… You would have never said something like that before, master…" Eleanora giggled a bit, blushing as I grabbed her hips and carried her to my side.

"I guess I've finally stopped being a fool." I gently caressed her beautiful face, looking directly into her crimson eyes, and giving her a small kiss in her lips. "Simply giving you a glance fills me with motivation to do anything. What a wondrous feeling this is…"

"M-Master…" Eleanora smiled, as she hugged me tightly and then started giving me many more kisses. "I love you! Mooch, mooch, mooch!"

"Wait, Elenora- Ahh!"

I guess I was the one that walked directly into that…

After that embarrassing moment, I stored the boss corpse and the rest of the monster carcasses inside my Grimoire and walked to the surface once more, gathering with my friends and the rest of my Vampires.

We decided to set up a camp and cook something to eat before moving on. There was a lot of new meats, and even the Black Flame-enhanced meat was delicious and not poisonous. Despite looking rather suspicious, it didn't had Miasma inside or anything after Hendrick checked it and purified it with his poison manipulating abilities.

Because of that, we decided to cook a big feast before the big battle against the last boss, which is said to be the hardest bosses in the entire city… Not only because of how strong the Red Dragon can be, but because he's surrounded by an army of around four hundred monsters too.

He doesn't fight alone at all, that's for sure… And if we add the Black Flame mutation into the equation, he'll be even deadlier. We can't take it easy and just walk downstairs while being so exhausted.

Luckily, Eleanora, Erika, and Elizabeth decided to cook this time, leaving me to rest as a "reward" for defeating the boss like I did… It was really quite the overkill.

The three of them were quite good at cooking already, although Elizabeth was the best because she learned many skills in the church, Eleanora was good, and Erika… was quite clumsy, but she was getting there.

I decided to still cook with them because I couldn't just see them do all the work, and I taught them a few of my recipes, although it was quite hard to cook when all three of them were constantly asking for my attention, and sneaking kisses on me.

And as the food was being prepared, I escaped them for a few minutes to assess something that Hendrick had prepared for me.

"It's done, master, I've prepared you all the biggest and juiciest Dragon Hearts, feast to your heart's content!" He laughed.

In front of me, there was a small table with several Dragon Hearts, extracted from all the Bosses we fought and defeated.

One of the requirements to enhance my Dragon Connection's power was to devour Dragon Hearts. But eating the mobs' hearts didn't work at all for me, neither eating their meat nor drinking their blood like with Erika.

My way of growing my Dragon Powers was different, and these hearts were the only way I could grow it at a quick pace, because despite how powerful I might seem, I need all the strength possible to confront the chaos going on in Elfriedden's continent.

After all, I might have to fight Fafnir, someone that is said to be an Evil Dragon God equal or stronger than S Rank Monsters… I cannot falter. This dungeon is just a small warmup for the real challenge that is coming in the future.

And that's without even including the possibility of another Archdemon Vessel being involved in the entire chaos happening there…

"Then, I'll begin."

Without hesitating, I started eating the giant raw hearts one after another.

THUMP! THUMP!

My heart already started beating faster, draconic power surging from it! It was beginning to absorb the energies and transform.

Finally… it's here!

Ding!

[You've learned the [Dragon Heart: Lv1] Skill!]

FLAAASH!
