Dark Ruler - Chapter94

Sherlock looked at the light beam that descended from the sky and enveloped Enoya.

Zayen's expression did not change in the slightest, but in fact, he was already clenching his fists, and his expression was solemn and serious.

Jenn knew that this choice was a gamble for him and Enoya.

In the Dungeon System, a hero had two chances to evolve.

When they reached a certain level, they would evolve to the next stage.

As a result, their strength would also increase greatly. For those low-level hero units, if they were lucky, they might be able to awaken the hidden bloodline or power in their bodies. From there, they would be like carps leaping through the dragon's gate, obtaining powerful strength and skills in one fell swoop.

Of course, most of the time, these evolutions were fruitless.

The probability of a low-level hero becoming a Gold or above unit was similar to a beggar becoming a millionaire by winning the lottery.

If it was in the game, any gamer would scoff at Jenn's choice.

Enoya was only a Silver unit. Even if she was lucky, she would only evolve to Gold.

The higher the level of a card, the more EXP it would require for later evolution. This was especially true in the real world where NPCs could not be respawned at will. It was basically impossible to continuously farm monsters on the map to gain EXP like in the game.

Rather than wasting such a valuable item on a Silver unit, it was better to upgrade a higher level unit.

But Zayen knew that if they followed the normal method, it was unlikely that Anoa would be able to level up to the point of evolution.

Her duty was as an adjutant, and it could be said that she was the one who assisted Zayen in managing and monitoring the entire Dungeon.

Hence, unless it was necessary, Enoya couldn't go out to battle like the other heroes.

It would be difficult for her to obtain sufficient Experience Points to evolve.

If Sherlock wanted Enoya to evolve, this was the best opportunity.

And to Zayen, it was also a promise.

The light beam gradually dimmed.

It wasn't because the light had dissipated, but because darkness was gradually surging out from the pillar of light, replacing the light.

The air began to turn chilly, and even the magical torch that illuminated the study room trembled in the chilly wind. Shortly after, the white light beam turned incomparably pitch-black.

Sensing this wonderful power, Zayen raised his head, crossed his arms in front of him, and carefully stared ahead.

"Hoo …"

Along with an almost inaudible sound, the condensed black light suddenly scattered downwards as if it had melted into a water-like substance and flowed to the ground. Then, it quickly disappeared into the gaps between the stone slabs.

Enoya's figure once again appeared in front of Zayen.

At first glance, she didn't seem to have changed. However, upon closer inspection, her dress was more luxurious, and she exuded an elegant aura.

In the past, Enoya gave people the impression that she was a noble young lady. But now, as long as she walked out, it wouldn't be surprising for people to think that she was a princess.

The pitch-black, tight-fitting dress perfectly outlined the girl's figure and graceful curves. The dark red, blood-like lines formed a beautiful pattern on the black background.

Even under the illumination of the magical flames, the lace at the hem of the skirt remained dim and lusterless.

However, this dimness formed a sharp contrast, like the pitch-black color on a white paper. Not only did it not lose its color, but it also became more dazzling.

However, what caught Jenn's attention the most was Enoya's skin.

In the past, Enoya's skin was ashen, which was the color of a dead person.

Although Zayen was not very used to it at first, it was no problem after he got used to it.

On the contrary, he felt that it should be considered Enoya's unique charm.

That kind of beauty shrouded in death, as long as one carefully savored it, one would be amazed.

But now, that ashen complexion had completely disappeared. The young lady's skin was still white and delicate, but it had lost the cold, stiff feeling of death. Instead, it had a bit of fresh vitality.

But it was also because of this that Enoya's body had a unique charm that wasn't there before. It was as though the boundary between life and death was clearly expressed in her body.

Her fair skin, enchanting eyes, slightly upturned lips, and exquisite facial features seemed to have transformed into the most magical and beautiful creation of the Creator.

It was as if they had become the most magical and beautiful creation of the Creator at this moment. Just looking at them made one unable to help but praise the beauty of life.

Just looking at Enoya's smile would make people feel as if they were standing on a grassy hillside, looking down at the azure lake, the emerald forest, and the singing birds. Their moods were as carefree as ever.

But where there is light, there must be a shadow.

In the shadow of the long blonde hair, at the bottom of the pair of blood-red eyes, what Jenn saw was cold, merciless death.

It was like seeing the falling leaves and knowing the arrival of autumn. The ruthlessness in the darkness was the end of all life. It was like standing on a graveyard full of graves and looking at the scattered coffins and bones. It was inevitable to understand an inescapable truth.

Whether rich or poor, powerful or weak, noble or lowly, they all had the same end.

But the most eye-catching thing was the updated information on Enoya.

[Netherworld Warrior Concubine – Enoya Arqunis (Gold SR)]

[Soul Tomb: Ability to create Soul Prism]

"Phew …"

Seeing this, Jenn breathed a long sigh of relief.

She had jumped from Silver to Gold SR. Although she was still a little worse than Pattilina, Enoya was not the main combat unit, and having such power was already powerful enough.

Especially that [There is a certain chance to ignore defense and launch an instant death attack], it was simply a killer weapon.

This meant that when Enoya fought with the enemy, even if the enemy was fully armed with a hundred layers of magic defense, it was possible that Enoya could kill them with a light touch.

Although according to the system's usual behavior, this probability might be less than 1%, it was better than nothing.

But what caught Jenn's attention the most was Enoya's new special skill [Soul Tomb] – the ability to create Soul Prism.

Soul Prism!!

Looking at these four words, Zayen's body almost trembled, and trembled again and again.

For the Main Material Plane, the Soul Prism was a very strange thing. Perhaps many knowledgeable mages did not know what it was.

But for the residents of the Demon Realm, the Soul Prism was an expensive existence comparable to diamonds and platinum on the Main Material Plane. If anyone absorbed the Soul Prism, they could obtain all the power and knowledge of the soul itself.

In fact, to put it bluntly, the Legendary Star that Jenn obtained before was also a kind of Soul Prism from a certain point of view.

But the Soul Prism was not something that anyone could create. Generally speaking, only high-level Demons had such an ability.

Although Jenn was the son of the Demon King, he did not learn how to create the Soul Prism because his own strength was not strong.

The previous Legendary Star was made after the system automatically extracted Gustav's soul after Jenn completed the mission. It had nothing to do with Jenn himself.

Besides, the Soul Prism did not mean that any kind of soul could be used to make it. It was like using clay to make pottery; the difference between good clay and poor clay was huge.

The most important condition to make the Soul Prism was that the other party must be strong. Secondly, he must have very strong emotions.

Perhaps it was love, or hatred.

But no matter which one it was, these intense emotions were the best seasoning for the Demons.

Because the conditions to create the Soul Prism were very harsh, and most of the Demon Kings had high standards, there were not many Soul Prism in the Demon Realm, and the price was quite expensive.

Jenn was sure that if he could get three to five Gustav-level Soul Prism for auction, the wealth he would get would be enough for him to hire an army of Demons that was no less than his siblings.

"Enoya, how do you feel?"

At the thought of this, Jenn was also quite emotional. He looked at the young lady in front of him and asked with concern.

Upon hearing Jenn's question, Enoya looked at her hands, closed her eyes, and pondered for a moment before answering.

"It's strange, Master … I feel like a lot of knowledge that I didn't have before emerged in my head … No, I feel like this knowledge has always been in my head, but I forgot about it before. Now, it's like I'm recalling it.

And I can feel that I'm stronger than before … "

Enoya said, extending her hand. Shortly after, on her slender fingertips, lightning flickered and jumped. At the next moment, it condensed into a long scythe.

Arcs of light constantly emerged from the scythe, carrying an incomparably strong chill of death.

"Good."

Looking at this scene, Jenn nodded in satisfaction, stood up, and gazed at Enoya.

"But practice is the only standard to test the truth …"

"I understand, Master."

Upon hearing Jenn's words, Enoya blinked and revealed a playful smile.

"I will entertain the dark-skinned guests from afar."
