Wei Jun looked at the Orc chieftain, who was emitting dark smoke from its body. The power emitting from it was once again of darkness, not Death. But the closest sub-elent of the Death elent was darkness so compared to other branches of the the Death elent, the power of darkness was very strong.
[If we're talking in the sense of the orc]
[Then what he'd have is the dark aura]
[Its defense would be double]
[While its attack power would be imnse as well]
[That's what the power of darkness is]
[It enhances the power of an individual at the cost of sothing]
Wei Jun's ears suddenly perked up as he heard the last point of the system. 'What do you an by a cost?'
[It's as if you've heard]
[For so it's their life force]
[For so it's their sanity]
[But unlike witchcraft, where an alternate source of life can be provided such as a sacrifice]
[In the case of the elent of darkness]
[It must be sothing the user possesses for themself]
[In return, the cost is very less and the power is very high]
Wei Jun more or less understood what the system explained. If Wei Jun were to put it into simpler words, the orc was currently using so sort of sacrifice, his very own being, to increase its power drastically.
'Then am I too...?' Wei Jun asked but he didn't complete his sentence because the system interrupted him.
[No]
[What you wield is death]
[Death has no price but one]
[You reap]
Wei Jun's eyes widened as the system said that but before he could dive into it, the orc spoke once again and the system translated it for him.
[I am stronger than you]
[Surrender, and I shall end you with honor]
Wei Jun heard the orc's words through the system and scoffed. Although he was interested in his own matter, he wasn't so imrsed in ignoring the orc who had now beco more powerful and could end him without much effort.
[It's right, you know]
[It is stronger than you]
'So what?' Wei Jun asked before he added, "What good is honor if you're dead?"
Wei Jun decided to reach down deep into his abdon and reached for the Death Qi core. When he always used it, the Death Qi activated and moved according to his whims, almost like the skills of the system but there were no Death Qi specific skills in the system.
If he were to use the Death whips, he'd just have to think about it and they'd appear on his hands without even a second's delay.
However, he did it today after he witnessed the flow of the Orc's aura. He had noticed it before when he witnessed the flow of Guardian's mana through his heart, but the mana of Guardian was in a little disarray due to it being outside his body, however, the aura of the orc before him was perfectly stabilized.
As if it followed every whim of it but not only that, it was in perfect control, along with too low of a consumption. Wei Jun knew that if the plan was to tire the orc out by making him use too much power of darkness for an extended period of ti, then it was a losing battle.
Wei Jun was sure he'd die before that
[You'll definitely die before that]
'Thanks for the confirmation.'
Wei Jun sighed and reached deep down into his core.
As he touched the Death Qi core, he felt a sudden push back but he imdiately gathered himself before his consciousness could exit the core. He imdiately went back in because he was low on ti and felt it.
The resistance.
The resistance from the Death Qi core was massive. It was as if it was saying that Wei Jun was free to use it, but he was not allowed to control it. However, Wei Jun was not there to control it. He was simply there to bond with it.
"Oi," Wei Jun said out loud, looking at the orc while his mind was deep down into the Death Qi core as he said, "Let's beco one."
Beco one. He had felt it before when he assimilated with the Yang Qi. The feeling of powerful addiction was the greatest problem with that thod but he rembered how the yang Qi assimilated into his body.
He tried the sa, only with Death Qi this ti. It had happened before too, when he accidentally did so and gained one stat each in his physical stats but the risk associated with that was that he would be becoming death itself.
He would be branded as an evil cultivator and be hunted for life. However, there was a slight hope that there was a solution to that as well. What if he didn't assimilate with it permanently but for a short amount of ti?
Like the skill [Qi empowernt] but different than that. Like sothing more than that. Sothing more...
"Chaotic."
As if the Death Qi could understand his words perfectly, it moved in a manner that wasn't stable in the least. Not like it usually moved when Wei Jun activated skills, but it moved as if it was out to destroy everything.
"Let there be chaos." Wei Jun said before his eyes went dark and his power reached another level.
[You have triggered the state of Berserk]
[Warning]
[The state of berserk has been deed unethical and forbidden by the laws of nature]
[The longer the user remains in the state of Berserk]
[The more there will be the risk of ntal capability loss]
Wei Jun could feel his head going mad, filled with thoughts to destroy everything in his path he didn't take one step forward even when the orc had finished saying whatever it had to say and jumped at Wei Jun, intent on killing him.
"Oi." Wei Jun said, his tone calm as ever even when his head was on a rampage, "I said I'll work with you, never said I'll work for you."
[The user's ntal resistance has proven to be too strong]
[The effects of the berserk state would drastically decrease]
[An unbelievable achievent]
[You have gained the title 'One who resisted the laws']
[Error]
[A title contained with such a power cannot be assimilated with the user as a higher class status with a strong class already exists]
[The title will be assimilated with the class 'Invader']
[You have gained a new skill]
[Berserk]
[Tier: SSS]
[Description: Not many can suppress their emotions when it goes against their nature
Is it because the skill is faulty or the user is a robot?
The user can be called the oddball in that sense then
A skill created specifically for the user as the user has proven to be the first of his kind]
[Effect(s):
Attack 100
Defense 100]
[Cost: 5000 Death Qi]
[Disadvantage: For every second the skill is in use, -1 HP]
[Cooldown: 24 hours]
"Gah!!!"

"Excuse , Doctor Jas." A woman dressed in a nurse outfit knocked on the door of a man and after getting permission from the man, she entered and inford him of her reason for coming, "Soone is here to see you. She addresses herself as Doctor Marlene Quinn."
"Doctor Quinn?" The man surnad Jas, Doctor Jas to be precise asked before he added, "British? Is she sent by Johnathan?"
"She didn't say." The nurse replied.
"Hmm..." Kevin Jas, a renowned cardiologist, a doctor of many talents and skills far beyond any other doctor, even many, many doctors combined. Such a man was known throughout the world and it wasn't strange for doctors to visit and consult with him on various aspects.
The problem was that he had never heard of soone going by that na. Even when he racked his brain, no one by the na ca up.
"Send her in," Kevin said and closed his laptop. The nurse nodded and left, and after about ten minutes, the door knocked once again and once Kevin gave the permission, the door opened to reveal a young woman of exquisite beauty.
Her beauty would have chard any man but Kevin wasn't just any man. He could see beyond that beauty and he sighed as he asked, "Is there a reason you wish to see , Doctor Quinn?"
He didn't bother wasting ti with pleasantries or anything else. Even before she properly stepped inside the office, Kevin posed the question, stopping her in her tracks. She looked at Kevin and said in her exquisite British accent, "Hello, Mister Jas. I know it may co off as rude but..."
Since Kevin had gotten straight to the point, Marlene did so as well and said, "I'm here to discuss a patient of yours."
"Who?" A frown appeared on Kevin's face but he didn't show any further hostility except for the frown.
Marlene smiled and took another step inside the office, her expression calm and serene as she replied, "Damien. Damien Smith."
