Chapter 1029 Getting Stronger
?-----
The next morning arrived, as I felt my body had grown slightly sore. I think Aquarina did a few too many things last night.
We did almost the same thing we did the other night, and it really felt good… but she's so intense sometimes, and quite rough.
Though, we have yet to touch each other's… most private part yet, I've told her to save that for later because I wanted to start things slowly.
But I really can't take a break with her! I can't imagine how more intense she'll get in the future.
And there she was, sleeping like a little bear…
"Guwah… Sylphy… Shylphy… sowy… don't get mad…"
She was probably dreaming of me reprimanding her or something. Am I that grumpy? I think I am much less grumpy than my mother!
Well, for now I better assess my gains. I've got a few things I want to consume to see how they work. I also have yet to put the fruits inside of my dungeon, so I gotta do that too.
I opened my inventory and took out the items. The small crown-shaped Sunstone and the Elixir with golden and orange colored, bright liquid.
The items were the [Spiritual Sunstone Crown (A+ Grade)] and the [Sunlight Soul Essence Elixir (S Grade)]!
I first decided to consume the Elixir, which seemed to be the easiest of the two. The flavor was sweet and had some sort of carbonated texture.
"It is like orange soda from Earth, isn't it?" Alice giggled.
"Huh?" I didn't know what she was talking about, but I drank it all. "Phew! This was refreshing- Oh?"
FLAAASH!
However, the flavor wasn't the only reward, as I felt a large quantity of Soul Energy and Spiritual Energy rushing across my body at the same time.
"Ooh! This is so much Soul Energy!"
My soul absorbed the Soul Energy as if it had been starving for some, while my Spiritual Heart absorbed the Spiritual Energy.
Ding!
[You've consumed the [Sunlight Soul Essence Elixir (S Grade)], you have gained an immense quantity of Soul Energy, Spiritual Energy, and Sunlight Essence.]
[Your Soul has absorbed the large quantities of Soul Energy! Any wounds or exhaustion have been healed.]
[Your [Psyche]: [Tier 1: Rank 7: God Devouring Abyssal Soul Psyche] has Ranked Up to Tier 1: Rank 9!]
[Your Soul has become larger and much stronger. You can now better resist the pressure of unleashing more of your Mana.]
[Your Spiritual Heart has absorbed the Spiritual Energy, slowly refined its crystalline quality and enhanced its natural pool of essence.]
[Your [Spiritual Heart]: [Tier 1: Rank 1: Rainbow Spirit Heart] has Ranked Up to Tier 1: Rank 3!]
[Your Spiritual Energy reserves have been permanently increased.]
[The power of Spirit Magic has been permanently increased.]
[All of your Contracted Spirits have become stronger.]
"Perfect." I smiled. "Oh, there's more?"
FLUOSH!
I also felt several runes slowly being engraved across my Physique and Magic Circle…
Ding!
[The Sunlight Essence has been assimilated into your Magic Circle and Physique.]
[You gained thousands of Sunlight Runes!]
[Due to the accumulated growth of your Physique and Magic Circle, both have broken through!]
[Your [Magic Circle]: [Tier 6: Rank 2: Spiritual Princess Magic Circle] has Ranked Up to Tier 6: Rank 3!]
[The Power of your Magic Spells have been enhanced permanently. You can conjure more complex spells.]
[You can now conjure [Sunlight Magic]!]
[Your [Physique]: [Tier 6: Rank 2: Divine Yggdragon Princess Physique] has Ranked Up to Tier 6: Rank 3!]
[Your Physical Fitness, Stamina, Endurance, Movement Speed, and Reaction Speed have permanently increased.]
[Your body can now more easily absorb Sunlight for the activation of [Sunshine] and [Blazing Sunshine Ward]!]
[The [Blazing Sunshine Ward: Lv6] [Advanced Fire Magic: Petit Meteor: Lv5] [Fire Magic: Phantom Flames: Lv4] and [Heavenly Sun: Lv7] Skills have Leveled Up!]
"Wow, alright, I got much more than I imagined." I said. "I suppose that leftover Essence from the purified souls was well spent! But we're not quite done yet…"
I looked at the crown-shaped sunstone.
"So how am I supposed to absorb this? Do I munch it down?" I asked Alice.
"You're supposed to hold it on both of your hands and mediate. Imbue your Mana and Spirit Energy into it and then absorb the power the crystal holds-"
FLAAASH!
"Like this?"
Alice opened her eyes wide as she saw me absorb the entire crown in a single second. It wasn't as complicated as she said.
"Y-You're really a genius."
"Eh? Really?"
FLUOSH!
As I absorbed the item, I felt yet another large quantity of power surging into my body…
However, this entire power was instead redirected to a compatible Skill that had already reached max level!
Ding!
[You have absorbed the [Spiritual Sunstone Crown (A+ Grade)] successfully!]
[Spiritual Sunlight Essence is flowing inside of your body.]
[Your Physique, Magic Circle, Psyche, and Spiritual Heart have absorbed the energy completely.]
[Your Spiritual Heart has further developed.]
[Your [Spiritual Heart]: [Tier 1: Rank 3: Rainbow Spirit Heart] has Ranked Up to Tier 1: Rank 4!]
[Your Spiritual Energy reserves have been permanently increased.]
[The power of Spirit Magic has been permanently increased.]
[All of your Contracted Spirits have become stronger.]
[Once you reach Tier 2, it will be possible to engrave inside of your Spiritual Heart with Unique Spiritual Techniques.]
[Spiritual Techniques] are a combination of both Spells and Techniques and can only be conjured using Spiritual Energy in large quantities.]
[However, their power and effects are guaranteed to be much stronger than any spell or technique.]
[Additionally, depending in the growth of your Spiritual Heart, these Spiritual Techniques will be able to further evolve and develop.]
[Based in how many contracted Spirits you had at the beginning of the creation of your Spiritual Heart, you'll get Spiritual Techniques for each one.]
"Amazing! Spiritual Techniques… This is new!" I said. "Alice, do you know something about these?"
"Not much, that's the only basic information that could be dug." She apologized. "Sorry, maybe ask your mother later? For now, look."
She pointed at the system notification that showed up.
Ding!
[The [Fire Magic: Blazing Wall: Lv10] Skill has absorbed the energy within the [Spiritual Sunstone Crown (A+ Grade)] and is compatible for Advanced Skill Evolution.]
[Please choose between these Options for Advanced Skill Evolution…]
