Back when Rey was on the verge of death—facing an enemy he could never hope to beat, the System had to determine the best course of action for him.
He had a lot of good Skills—useful ones even.
His Necromancy, Shapeshifting, Flight, and a bunch of really useful Skills that would co in handy in several important scenarios.
But… none of them would ensure his survival.
Not even the Divine Beast Summon, or any of the other overpowered Skills in his arsenal.
As such, during the assimilation process done by the [Divine rger] interface, it automatically selected the results that would lead to its host's best interests.
An outco that would ensure undisputed victory on the part of Rey Skylar.
It was due to this that the 15 Skills were ford.
[Divine Weapon Creation] used the [Divine Blade Summon] as well as Rey's other Skills, such as [Grand Enchanted Weapon Summon], [Grand Item Equip], and a bunch of others for true compatibility.
Then, [Perfect Divine Magic] rged all of Rey's Active Magic-related Skills and combined them with the [Divine Elental Magic] to form an ultimate Magic-Based Skill.
[Divine Power Ascension] and [Divine Magic Supremacy] were already present in his arsenal, so they weren't tampered with. Perhaps they would have beco perfected, but there weren't enough Skills with direct compatibility to them that would ensure a success.
As for the [Perfect Divine Ray] and [Perfect Domain Of The Divine] Skills, the opposite was true. While they were already in the Divine Tier, using a lot of highly compatible Skills—offensive Skills for the forr, and Spatial Skills, like [Grand Inventory] and [Absolute Spatial Domain] even sacrificing [Grand Elental Summon] for the latter—these new Skills was created.
[Perfect Divine Defense] had a similar story, while lower Tier Skills were promoted by adding a bunch of Skills to the mix. Examples of those were [Perfect Divine Resistance], [Perfect Divine Regeneration], [Perfect Divine Appraisal], and [Perfect Divine Martial Supremacy].
New Skills were also ford from scratch, using the rest of the Skills, as well as the current experiences as a threshold for their growth.
New Skills, like [Perfect Divine Immortality], [Perfect Divine Growth], [Perfect Divine Form], and [Perfect Divine Adaptability] would ensure that the host—Rey Skylar—would not perish as long as his Soul was still kept intact.
He could also continuously grow without a ceiling.
All of this was done by the [Divine rger] before it downgraded back to its previous Status. The leftover essence of the Skills were fed to [Sacrifice], and were in turn churned out as Stat Points for Rey to use at his disposal.
This would improve his much lacking base Stats, once again ensuring he wouldn't suffer needless pain and humiliation in a battle of re Stats with most entities.
Since Rey could not cast [Doppel] on himself, there was no way to recover the [Divine rger] Skill, and with [The Unknown Box] Skill gone—a part of its essence even fed to [Sacrifice], he would never have access to it again.
Perhaps if he kept using [rger], a natural evolution could occur, but the chances of that were very slim.
That said, was there really any need for concern?
At this point, Rey Skylar possessed fifteen SS-Tier Skills all to himself, breaking the record among the natives of H'Trae for one with most Divine-Tier Skills.
A new Class was inevitably going to awaken within him, and his power would soar even higher than ever.
Perhaps this was providence; a reward for his suffering.
Whatever case this would be, it only ant one thing—especially to the Beast that Rey currently faced.
—Rey's divine victory.
***********
"Where do I begin?" Rey muttered as he watched Dagon throw a flurry of punches towards Rey, trying his hardest to reach him.
The cracks that appeared all over the dull-colored barrier didn't make Rey anxious. Instead, he moved closer to Dagon and undid the barrier.
That very instant—
~WHUUUUUM!~
—Dagon threw its most powerful blow yet towards Rey, hitting his head in a powerful burst of impact.
~BOOOOOOOM!~
Rey's neck easily twisted, and his entire flash beca mangled from the blow. However, in just a mont, it all reverted back to normal.
"Ahhh! So this is immortality! I should have definitely died from that!" Rey grinned excitedly, not even feeling an ounce of the pain that should have coursed through his body.
Most people would have cried out at the horror, but Rey felt none of those things.
He didn't feel anything about the corpses that littered his sight, nor about the horrors that he had just experienced. He didn't rember the two Familiars who perished for his sake, neither did he rember the people he swore to save.
Right here and now, the only thing that filled Rey's mind was power.
"More… what more can I do?!" He bellowed out, staring at Dagon with wide eyes.
"GRRRRRRRR!"
The Beast tried to slash at Reyy with its claws, but an invisible surge of wind sent it flying high into the sky—much faster than it could even process.
"Hahaha! Co on! Try harder!" Rey laughed, his eyes now bloodshot like one who teetered at the edge of insanity.
"I'm right here!"
Upon hearing what felt like taunts, Dagon roared, sending mighty waves of power crashing into the air around him. It kicked the air behind it and charged towards Rey like an unstoppable teor. However, as soon as Rey slightly raised his hand, Dagon ceased motion—almost as if he was stuck in a single fra of ti.
No… that wasn't right.
"Interesting! So if I keep swapping out zones using my Domain, I can create a seemingly infinite distance between myself and you. It's the weirdness of space, but what are you going to do now? You can't reach , ri—?"
"GRRRRAAAAAA!!!" Dagon's Null Art burned even brighter as its silver scales shattered apart, revealing a muscled mass of pure white skin.
It broke through the seemingly infinite distance, bypassing what should have been impossible.
All of this was simply due to its ability to nullify the effects of Rey's Skills.
"A-ah, I see. No good, huh?"
~BOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!~
As Dagon crashed on the ground where Rey was supposed to be, the lad was already floating in the air, his arms stretched forward as he stared down at Dagon with cold eyes.
"Maybe if I master it a little more. Or if I have better Stats… that won't happen again.
Dagon growled in desperation, raising its head up as it opened its large maw, preparing to fire an intense blast at Rey.
"You know… it's funny…"
~BOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!~
The azure blast was sent forth, causing everything around to vibrate at an abnormal rate.
Dagon began to sink into the collapsing earth, as it was unable to handle the full feedback of the power the Beast exuded.
Still, even with such an overwhelming output, the barrier that surrounded Rey was able to fully deflect it.
"I used to look at you with fear and horror. The pain and despair from back then… why don't I feel any of it?"
Several golden sparks appeared all around Rey, and in a flash, several golden blades—Divine Weapons—were sent flying towards Dagon.
Faster than blurs, they charged at the Divine Beast, impaling it on all sides of its body.
Its arms, legs, stomach, chest, and even neck; all of them were impaled with these swords, breaking apart the very ground that Dagon stood on to create a gaping hole in the ground.
"Have you beco so weak… or have I transford into sothing strong?" As Rey said this, he turned his palm towards his face and keenly gazed upon it.
Then, sothing began to form in front of the outstretched palm.
It was a combination of all the colors imaginable to man, coalesced into a blank fabric of untold destruction.
"GRRRRRIIIIIAAAAAAAA!!!" Dagon kicked the air behind it so that it wouldn't fall into the massive crater beneath it. With its sheer willpower and contracting muscles alone, it sent all the Divine Blades that were lodged into it flying away.
The light kept forming on Rey's palm. It was so small, yet all of the lights in the heavens seed to vanish, and everything for miles seed to shiver in response to the power being ford.
Even the almighty Dagon—invincible Divine Beast of old—was not immune to this.
Its instincts, which had told it several tis to kill Rey and everything in sight began to say sothing else.
'RUN! RUN AS FAST AS YOU CAN!'
Dagon obeyed its instincts and began to flee. Like a wild beast of the forest, it went on all fours and began to run away.
Its claws scratched the surface of the earth, creating marks that propelled it even further away from the enemy.
'T-TAR! KILL THE TAR AND ESCAPE!' Dagon made its way to the Royal Estate, hoping to eliminate the Tar and undo its summoning. How it knew that was immaterial.
It was all instinct.
The mont it leaped forward, hoping to swiftly accomplish its mission, a figure was already waiting for him ahead.
It was Rey, and right now, his palm was wide open… with the fingers pointed at Dagon.
With an expressionless face, and a stoic tone, his voice erged.
"[Perfect Divine Ray]."
~BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM!!!~
