Chapter 779 Divine Dragon Marks
-----
Drake happily smiled as he was embraced by his wife and his daughter. A feeling of warmth that he had been missing for a while quickly encompassed his body, as he suddenly realized that Benladann and Benladra had slightly changed. Somehow within their bodies there was a lot of divine essence spreading across. He didn't really know what could had happened to them, but through closer inspection, he noticed that their Dragon Marks had evolved into Divine Dragon Marks, which were equal to Divine Protections! As he was now a God, the Dragon Marks of everybody seemed to have become Divine Protections, granting great bonuses to others' stats, magic, and abilities.
However, there was no time for him to inspect this into detail, as Benladann quickly began to kiss him all over his face. Already over the floor, his wife and his daughter didn't seem to let go of him at all. He laughed a bit, as they were acting like spoiled girls, and he hugged them with his arms, rubbing his face over theirs.
"I love you two so much…" He sighed. Benladann and Benladra looked back at Drake while slowly crying. Mother and daughter were quite alike despite the age difference between the two… Or maybe Benladann was being overly childish.
"You slept for like five days! We were dead worried!" Said Benladann.
"Papa!" Cried Benladra.
"I am sorry… I was undergoing some changes within my soul… It seems that I had awakened something that made me kind of… a God." He said. "Since I was reincarnated that I had a Unique Skill I never told you about… It was named [God] but it was sealed. After I was able to absorb divine power from those divine flames, it suddenly unsealed itself and gave me more power than I could have ever bargained for…"
"W-Wow… So that happened… You kept it a secret from me?" Sighed Benladann. "Dummy!" Benladann furiously karate chopped Drake's head. But her hand ended hurting at the end.
"O-Ouch!"
"Don't do that, I am now kind of a God… so I am even more durable than before, be more careful dear." Said Drake, healing Benladann's hand with a gust of cooling winds.
"Baba!" Benladra seemed to be still quite emotional, as Drake hugged her and held her on his arms like the spoiled little princess she always has been, and he kissed her forehead and cheeks.
"Sorry… Papa is back." He said. "Has Benladra behaved? Have you been a good girl?"
Benladra who had difficulties speaking nodded rapidly and happily, she had been a good girl it seems.
"Not really…" Said Benladann. "Little Benladra had been rather pesky lately. Each time we were having lunch she wasn't eating her vegetables… And she also threw the food in the floor several times. I mean, I get it, she was sad because you were in comatose but still!" Benladann quickly began to reprimand her daughter. It has been hard to keep her at bay by herself without the help of Drake. She had quickly realized that Drake was a big help in raising the little girl, as the two took turns to take care of her each day.
Drake was surprised Benladra, who was such a cute and nice girl had been misbehaving this way lately, as he looked at her with a bit of disappointment clear on his face. Benladra alarmedly moved her face away from him, while pouting and blushing a bit.
"Benladra… Well, maybe she was sad because I was gone… For now you better eat your vegetables, okay?" He asked. "I'll help you."
"Oway…" Benladra hugged Drake's chest and rubbed her face on his clothes.
"Drakeeeee!"
And then, everybody else outside the room entered into Drake and Benladann's room, slamming the door open… At the end Drake had to explain the same thing he did to his wife and daughter to everybody else present. It was a long conversation that included the opinions of many. While also talking with everybody, he noticed that each person's Dragon Mark had indeed become a Divine Dragon Mark that carried his Divine Protection.
Each Dragon Mark usually gave the person a new Element altogether, but aside from the new Elemental Affinity it gave to each person, it carried new effects, something called [Jobs]. Each person was able to suddenly acquire a [Job] after the Dragon Marks upgraded to Divine Dragon Marks, and each of these Jobs were just like in games, giving them special Skills related to them, which each person suddenly developed and knew how to use.
The Job Skills could also Level Up, something new that nobody knew about. Some constantly used these Skills and heard strange voices inside of their minds saying each Skill leveled up, granting greater proficiency and power using such Skills… And the worst of all, or the best of all in other perspective, was that the jobs could level up as well! It was as if Drake's Divine Protection made people suddenly become game-like characters and acquire supernatural capabilities beyond this world itself.
Benladann had acquired the [Chaos Sorceress Queen] Job, which granted her special Passive and Active Skills strengthening her Magical Power the most, something she was slightly lacking compared to her Physical Strength. She barely had it at Level 3 currently as she had only been slaying monsters to hunt and eat these last five days more than anything. Meanwhile, Benladra's Job was [Heavenly Dragon Saint], and it also seemed to grant her great power over her primary element, but it was Level 1 for obvious reasons, as she had been kept inside and not allowed to slay monsters or anything like that.
Sadly, Drake was the only one without this power, but his System was way greater in that regard than the Divine Dragon Marks anyways, and within the Divine Abilities he could acquire, there were greater versions of many of the Skills people acquired through their new [Jobs]. Nonetheless, he was happy he could help everybody grow stronger on their own unique ways, as each [Job] suited the person's fighting style or way of working.
