With the double upgrade his 'Eye of Clairvoyance' was able to not only show more accurate stats, and more information, but also the level gap increased to 11.
In addition, it wasn't limited only to the people he could see any more, now as long as they were inside his spirit sense, he was able to see their stats. ??
There seemed to also be an added function of X-ray vision with this upgrade, which was really bendy for him.
Thinking like this, and looking beyond the wall of the private box, Eric was able to see some important people having a business meeting, and beyond them, a couple eating and playing.
What surprised him though was that he didn't seem that just as lines, but like he was close to them, inside the same box they were.
He could only see them though, he couldn't hear a thing they were saying, no without using his spirit sense. But even seeing like this was already great.
Almost that couple playing with each other really piqued his interest and truly made him feel the fire inside him start burning, especially knowing what awaited him tonight.
Recomposing himself, and returning back to his previous task, he started having a look at his last upgraded skill.
'Pure Jade Body' was a defensive skill, and while until now he hadn't fought someone who had been able to hit, or to fight back, he couldn't become complacent and forget his defense.
This was the reason why he decided to upgrade this skill and not his 'slave-seal' ability. While that seemed useful, he had to be alive to use it.
So investing in his defense was the wisest thing to do at this moment, and the upgrade really left him satisfied.
According to the new description, his 'Pure Jade Body' now could block up to 50% of the attack suffered. His defense seemed really good at the moment.
At the moment the upgrade happened he could feel some warm energy entering his body and improving his bones structure, his skin, and his internal organs.
After the energy entered his body it looked like it became part of his body, not just a supportive layer. This was his greatest fear until now.
With his last system, everything seemed like adding one layer over the other but without becoming his. While now he could feel that it became part of him.
Truly worthy of being number one Divine Artifact. This was what Eric was thinking right now. He had had the same feeling with his eyes earlier but thought it was just his illusion.
Now he could finally confirm that this was truly the case. This made him really happy, otherwise, he would have to find a way to change that, and not believe in his system as much.
He also knew that while the system made it easier for him to become strong and helped him, he should also have a back-up plan.
Who knew what might happen in the future, he had to be ready for everything. That was why at the same time he was thinking of a way to prepare himself.
He had yet to think of something useful until now, so he just placed these thoughts to the back of his head, while he turned to look at Akira.
She still seemed to be in a deep thinking state, like she was in a fight of thoughts, about what her future would be. Perhaps the sub-system was also affecting her mental state.
Letting her be, Eric took a look at Kirigaya's sub-system installation and could see that he was close to 100%.
Since Kirigaya already had better stats than Akira, and also a better mental state, and spiritual power, of course, the speed of installation was much faster.
To tell the truth, Eric was stunned when he met Kirigaya at first because he couldn't see past this guy's stats. And even now that his 'Eye of Clairvoyance' had upgraded the situation hadn't changed.
This meant that Kirigay was truly strong, at least he would have to be above level 23. What made Eric curious though was, if the system would place him on level 23 or start from 0.
If he started at 0, then the increase he would have in power would be really great. Especially if he farmed well at some points these days.
But that would be too good to be true, most probably the system would give him his level, which would make the flies' farming useless.
There was also the fact of clearing his body from the impurities and poison, he was sure he might fall a level or two, this way even his foundation would become stable.
Even though the installation speed was fast it would still take around 3 hours or so. Eric didn't want to waste his time there.
Getting up he started writing a letter, and then bringing three potion bottles out of his inventory, and placed them by the letter.
Akira was stunned seeing him bring those three different potion bottles out of thin air, but after everything that was going on, she was getting less and less surprised.
Finishing with that, Eric turned around and said with a grin, as he looked at her body lustily,
Eric:" Let's go we have other things to do."
She wasn't a young girl to get ashamed or to not understand his meaning. But there was a red hue on her face, especially thinking about what happened last time.
There was also another thought in her mind, she didn't know why, but she felt that there would never be another man, besides Eric in her life anymore.
She couldn't understand why, but that thought made her a little happy inside, and put more weight on her desire to live.
Placing these thoughts to the back of her head, and recomposing herself a bit, she approached Eric slowly like a seductress and said licking her lips,
Akira:" I can't wait!"
Eric knew that she was just pretending right now, but it was okay, he still had a long time ahead to make her really feel like that.
So grabbing her by that slender waist, he pulled her towards him, and after giving her a long and deep kiss, he finally gave her time to breathe and said,
Eric:" Well, I can't wait too! So let's hurry back."
With that said, he released her, and then pulling her by the waist he started walking towards the door. He was able to sense her accelerating heartbeat the moment he said those words though.
It seemed like it worked. Satisfied with that he had a self-pleased look on his face, as he got out of the restaurant and left the place.
It seemed like he would have to talk tomorrow to Kirigaya about his plan of expanding the business, and his expectations.
Right now though it was time to have some fun with his little pets, and his new subordinates all together.
As soon as he reached home, Mina immediately jumped on his arms, she had truly been totally tamed by Eric, and she felt like she couldn't live without him playing with her.
On the other hand, Eric didn't mind having a pet that could do everything he asked and also service him. Her past was a bit loose, but now on she was his pet.
It was a long night for all four of them, a big battle of dominance took place, but the end result was just as expected, the three ladies had to fall unconscious at the end.
Eric really enjoyed this night, it had been a long time since he had had fun like this. But from tomorrow morning he had to start working and training even harder.
Thinking like this, Eric finally fell relaxed and fell asleep, but his spirit sense was active all the time.
He didn't trust his little pets at all, as for Akira, he didn't think she would be so stupid as to kill herself before taking her revenge.
In the morning Eric woke up around 6 or 7 o clock, getting out of the entanglement of the bodies around him, he went to brush his teeth, and take a shower.
After the murder he staged in his house the previous day, and also the fact of still not being able to deal with Takeshiba Yuto, he didn't find any reason to go to University.
That was why he had decided to go and meet Kirigaya, confirm that his poison had left his body, and also talk about business.
But looking at his phone he saw that he had a message from Daisuke, apparently, his assignment had been completed.
After the fact that Eric had sent him a message explaining what happened, and being enraged by his daughter's behavior that guy had accepted to give his daughter and the apartment away.
Seeing that Daisuke had an interest in his daughter, and that apartment though, he tried to bargain, and according to Eric's instructions, Daisuke had given him 20.000$ extra.
Reading this message, Eric's face had a dangerous grin, as he sent Daisuke a mental message to not act at the moment.
He still had to prepare something before he acted on that woman and that ex-bother of his. Revenge was a dish served cold, he could wait some time to add the seasoning.
But then he suddenly thought of something if he was able to send mental messages to his slaves, what about his subordinates.
Concentrating on his consciousness sea, he saw that there were 4 small mimicking transparent statues of his slaves and subordinates.
Focusing on Kirigaya's small statue, he said,
Eric:" Call me, I need to talk to you!"
Not long after that, his phone started ringing and it was Kirigaya, which meant that it really worked. Well, at least that made things easier.
So taking the call he said with a serious voice,
Eric:" I am coming to the restaurant, let us meet there."
Hanging up the call, he was remembered of something and immediately changed the phone's SIM card, and couldn't help but show that dangerous grin once again…
