Hero of Darkness

Chapter 342 New Skills

Kahn revealed his intentions to the rogue subordinate and placed his hands on the corpse of the semi-saint bearkin who was killed by Kahn this very day.

”Such a shame to let go of a great specimen.
I could ’ve kept him to fuse with Jugram. ” spoke Kahn with a helpless expression.

”Can ’t we use his body, my lord? ” asked Ronin who stood behind him.

”Sadly, no.
He belongs to a powerful clan from the capital and they would want to bury him with tradition and stuff even if they discard him away in the eyes of the normal public.

After all, there are only two hundred semi-saints in the whole empire.
Even their bodies are precious for many people. ” he explained why he couldn ’t keep the bearkin to create a new ally or mix with any subordinate either.

Unlike Solomon, Kahn had killed this commander in front of two hundred million people.
So naturally, he would have to keep the body intact.

”But that doesn ’t mean I can ’t salvage what I can afford to. ” spoke Kahn with a light grin.

”Absorb! ”

Soon, the Ability Absorption divine ability started its work.
It was the 2nd time he was using it on a semi-saint.

As the procedure finally ended after just 20 minutes, the system started notifying Kahn in his head.

[The host has acquired the following physical skills and abilities :

Berserker Charge (S Rank) (Active) : Allows the user to generate 3 times extra momentum and attack strength when charging in a single direction for 200 meters without being interrupted to deliver critical strikes.

–

Reaper Storm (SS Rank) (Active) (Upgradeable) :

Using this skill will allow the host to create an aura storm to pull all the enemies in 300 meter radius towards himself, which is incredibly useful to get any physical and melee class enemies in your attack range.

This ability serves as a top-tier crowd control skill for the Berserker class.

–

Death ’s Embrace (SS Rank) (Active) (Upgradable) :

Amplifies both damage and armor penetration against enemies by 50% for 10 minutes.

–

Following are the magical skills & abilities :

Berserker Wrath (S Rank) (Passive) :

Grants the host a 30% speed increase coupled with 15% higher damage against enemies in 100 meters radius.

–

Gravity Well (S Rank) (Active) :

This skill is especially useful in close-range combat.
It allows the host to trap enemies and make them immobile for 10 seconds in a 30 meter radius.] spoke the system in its usual lifeless and robotic voice.

”Good.
As expected of a seasoned warrior and a semi-saint. ” spoke Kahn.

Some of these skills were exactly what the bearkin used during their battle when Kahn went to arrest him.
Just that Kahn was simply too strong because the Hero of Darkness title was in effect so they didn ’t make any difference back then.

But before Kahn could rejoice, the system ’s voice resounded in his mind once again.

[Following are the merged skills and abilities using the Synthesis divine ability :

Marauder King (SSS Rank) (Active) (Upgradable) :

Allows the host to ignore 80% of the enemy ’s defense and any magical barrier created using spells, formation or an artifact while using a greatsword, giantsword or a battleaxe weapon.

–

Wrath of Vajra (SSS Rank) (Passive) (Upgradable) :

The host will constantly receive a 10% buff in attack strength and skills damage output with every hundred enemies killed.

The total buff received can be stacked as the battle progresses and collective damage output can rise up to 500% at maximum.] notified the system.

Shocked!

Kahn was completely flabbergasted by hearing the results of the merged skills.

Because just like the Sword King & Sword Battlemaster skill these two abilities were insanely OP.

Both Marauder King & Wrath of Vajra skills were extremely compatible in a large-scale battle.

And most importantly, Kahn could use the first one for three different weapons of choice.

While the second was a passive skill which was active all the time.

This made Kahn even a bigger powerhouse than before.

Because the Sword King skill was applicable only for swords while the Sword Battlemaster worked only on the swords of the enemies in a battle.
They were limited in terms of flexibility.

But both the newly merged skills had a vast range of applications because even now..
Kahn could fight 3 thousand people at once given his levels and skills.

However, if we were to factor in these two new skills now even fighting ten thousand people at once wasn ’t impossible.
All he had to do was stay alive and kill more enemies as the battle progressed.

Similar to how Jugram, the berserker subordinate became stronger as the battle went by because of his unique rank variant species called the Chaos Demon Wrath of Vajra would allow Kahn to do the same.

Wrath of Vajra was undoubtedly his biggest buff skill as far as real battle involving numerous enemies like an army was concerned.

Marauder King skill was simply a slaughtering skill as he would be able to bypass their defenses regardless of their origins such as barriers made from spells or artifacts.

If he used his darkness elemental attacks paired with these two new skills..
He ’d be a literal nightmare for the enemy side.

Kahn was certain that both these new SSS Rank skills were also comparable to legitimate Saint Rank skills given how both Sword King & Sword Battlemaster were considered the same while being of the same rank as these two.

After nearly a year of his previous battle with Arkham & Solomon, Kahn had finally received a huge boost in strength and two new OP skills.

Both of these were needed for the future battles he was going to have as the new sovereign of this fiefdom.

”System, use the Impartation Skill and impart all the new skills and abilities to Jugram and Blackwall. ” commended Kahn.

Because these new skills were usable by both the Guardian Knight & Hell Berserker subordinate who could use both Battleaxe & Giantsword weapons.

Kahn at the moment was extremely ecstatic because the results were already good.

But again, the system had a surprise for him.

[The system detects a big source of world energy in the core of the subject Aswala Bhaloo.
The host is advised to eat its core.]

”NANI?! ”

Shouted Kahn in surprise.
Because unlike Solomon..
This bearkin had amassed a lot of world energy in his core.

”System, how is that possible? ” asked Kahn in a puzzled tone.

[Because the individual named Solomon Elfenheim was below level hundred and the being in front of the host is above level 150.
World Energy can only be saturated in a core of a being after crossing level 150 first.] explained the system.

”Ah, I see.
No wonder I was able to only sense World Energy after eating that elf bastard ’s core.
He was simply too weak compared to this guy. ” spoke Kahn as he got the gist of the whole scenario.

He looked at the glimmering gray core with covetous eyes and his gaze shifted to the half-dried corpse of the bearkin.

Kahn then spoke in a greedy voice..

”I guess this was the biggest reward of them all. ”
