Owner of Twilight Intuition – Chapter 183

‘Is it because my race changed?’

However, the gray skin could be sufficiently covered with armor, so it didn’t seem to be a problem.

‘By the way, a skill that brings you back to life even after you die……’

Also known as Fallen Body.

This skill, obtained from the Demon King, was a skill that allowed you to be resurrected as a demon race when you died.

In a way, you got one more life.

Therefore, just looking at this, it was a very good skill.

Unfortunately, there was also a drawback. The drawback was that once you turned into a demon, you couldn’t use your existing skills.

That didn’t mean you only fought with normal attacks.

Uniquely, you could use the Demon’s Power, and it could be registered in Fallen Body, so there was no need to replace existing skills.

If I had to replace existing skills, I would have deleted it immediately, regardless of whether it was an A-rank skill or not.

Anyway, there were a total of 6 Demon’s Powers that I registered.

[A-rank Demon King’s Power (Fallen Body)] (LV1)

[A-rank Demon’s Power (Demon Sword Summoning)] (LV1)

[A-rank Demon’s Power (Blood Revenge)] (LV1)

[B-rank Demon’s Power (Black Flame)] (LV1)

[B-rank Demon’s Power (Life Absorption)] (LV1)

[C-rank Demon’s Power (Body Explosion)] (LV1)

Three of these powers were acquired by me, and the remaining three were purchased yesterday from the Cash Transaction Window.

Actually, I thought that since many demons appeared in the subjugation request, many skill books would have been uploaded, but unexpectedly, only a few skill books were uploaded.

I guess they either acquired it themselves or didn’t register it in the Real-Time Auction House.

‘I wish I could have acquired all 10 if possible.’

In fact, the number of powers that could be registered in Fallen Body was around 10.

“Detailed Information.”

[A-rank Fallen Body Effect] (LV1+2)

━Automatically activates upon death.

━Race temporarily changes to Demon.

━Demon’s Power can be used.

━Health & Magic Power increased by 12,000.

━Health & Magic Power recovery speed 120 per second.

━All stats except for basic stats are converted to Fallen Stats.

━Existing skills cannot be used.

━Vulnerable to Faith-based skills.

━Registered Demon’s Power (6/10).

━Duration 30 minutes.

‘I guess it would be good to check the registered Demon’s Power too?’

It would be a waste to let the skill rot since I’ve already acquired it.

Besides, if I die, I have to fight in this state, and if I don’t even know what kind of skill it is, there’s a high chance I’ll die again without the satisfaction of being resurrected.

‘Even after reading the explanation, it’s not as good as actually using it.’

Fortunately, since the place I was currently in was the Tower of Darkness, I could use the acquired Dark Power if I went up to the next floor.

“Ah, before that, I should equip my gear first.”

Since I would die with all my equipment equipped in actual combat, it was better to equip it to get used to it a little.

In addition, I was curious about my stats after equipping all my gear.

“Status Information Window.”

After equipping all my gear, I opened the Status Information Window to check my stats.

[Name: Rudin]

[Title: Hero of the Present World]

[Level: 99]

[Fame: 6054]

[Guild: Emperor]

[Health: 28040/28040]

[Magic Power: 24010/24010]

[Stamina: 100.0%]

[Defense: 4418] [Magic Defense: 2980]

[Stats] (All +20%)

[Attribute Resistance: All Attributes (3%), Light (-30%), Darkness (30%), Water (49%), Lightning (2%)]

[Acquired Skills: 6/10]

“Huh?”

Why are my health and magic power so high?

Actually, I expected my health and magic power to be low because all stats except for basic stats were converted to Fallen Stats, but at this level, there was no difference.

‘What’s the cause?’

It did increase by 10,000 due to the skill effect in Fallen Body, but that alone wasn’t enough.

It seemed like the answer would be in the Fallen Stat, so to find out properly, I raised the message window and looked for information related to Fallen.

“Ah, I found it.”

[Ding!~ A new stat ‘Fallen’ has been created. Fallen is also the unique power possessed by demons. As Fallen increases, it has a positive effect on health and magic power, and it also strengthens the power used by demons.]

“So, the Fallen Stat is affecting it.”

Indeed, when I took out the weapons Black Despair and Death from my item window, I could see my health and magic power increasing.

After checking, I found out that it didn’t increase by 10 like health and magic power, but by 5.

Well, it’s good that it increases.

“Going up.”

[Going up to the 27th floor.]

After roughly finishing the confirmation, I went up to the next floor to use the Demon’s Power.

Although the floor was low and it might not be helpful, I could still see how much damage it dealt.

Moreover, since the Tower of Darkness didn’t give skill experience except for experience points, I decided to be satisfied with that and used the skills one by one as soon as I went up to the 27th floor.

“Skill Use. Demon Sword Summoning.”

Fwoosh!-

At the same time, three swords appeared around me and circled around.

I thought it was a skill that summoned weapons because it was called Demon Sword Summoning, but it was rather closer to a summon.

“Can I give them commands?”

With my muttering, the monster on the 27th floor, the Orc Warrior, rushed towards me with a ferocious face.

“Hmm, attack.”

As soon as my command was given, the three demon swords flew towards the Orc at high speed.

The demon swords that flew towards the Orc performed appropriate attacks, stabbing or slashing around, but unexpectedly, their movements weren’t stiff and rather natural.

Is it an unexpectedly amazing skill?

It’s not unreasonable to think so since it’s an A-rank skill.

Moreover, the damage was also excellent, as the Orc, which was cut once or twice, disappeared immediately. To check the damage, I opened the Detailed Information and soon found out that the Fallen Stat was also added to the demon sword’s attack power.

Since my current Fallen Stat was over 1700, the demon sword’s attack power also had 1700 added.

It’s still lacking compared to my attack power.

‘But it’s not bad.’

The Fallen Stat can be increased by changing weapons and cloaks.

Thinking that the demon sword’s attack power would also increase, I decided to try using the remaining skills.

*　*　*

“Hmm.”

Afterward, I used all the remaining skills, including Demon Sword Summoning, and learned how to utilize them. After 30 minutes, I turned back into a human.

As expected, I couldn’t use the Demon’s Power after turning back into a human.

‘What should I do now?’

I could leave the Tower of Darkness and start leveling up my skills in earnest.

It definitely wasn’t a bad choice, but I shook my head and decided to finish something else first.

‘No, let’s go to the Church of Light first.’

Wanting to know how to use the Divine Contribution Points I had earned, I set my next destination as the Church of Light and left the Tower of Darkness.

Since the Church of Light was located all over the continent, it didn’t matter where I went, but I headed to the Church of Light in the Karzen Kingdom where Nayra was. Since I hadn’t returned to the Harpe Empire yet, I was able to arrive just now.

‘Nayra will be there, right?’

Since she said she would be waiting at the Church of Light last time, there was a high chance she would be there.

With that thought in mind, I arrived at the Church of Light and saw an NPC running somewhere after spotting me. After waiting for a while, as expected, Nayra appeared.

“Welcome, Rudin-nim.”

“……You look well.”

She gave a faint smile at my reply.

“Yes. More importantly, Archbishop Celestina-nim has granted you access to the Church’s Treasure Vault for a year.”

‘The Church’s Treasure Vault?’

Come to think of it, there was such a thing in the quest reward details.

That I could use the Church’s Treasure Vault.

Besides, since I completed the quest, it was not strange that those words came out.

“Would you like to see it?”

“Yes, I’d like to.”

“Alright. Please follow me.”

I nodded and followed Nayra, who led me to a staircase leading down to the basement.

It took longer than I thought because we had to open the door installed at the entrance to the basement, go down the stairs, open another locked door, and finally open the door to what I presumed to be the Treasure Vault. But as soon as I entered the Treasure Vault, I saw various items.

From potions to equipment, skill books, scrolls, and more.

“It’s an exceptional case to reveal the Church’s Treasure Vault to others. Conversely, it means that what Rudin-nim has done is that significant.”

“Ah…… is that so?”

Well, catching the Demon King can’t be said to be easy.

Now, I could even summon Ust and catch most raid bosses.

Even then, the Demon King was barely caught by joining forces with dozens of guilds, so it was truly a quest with insane difficulty.

Maybe if I had fought alone, I would have struggled against the four highest-ranking demons?

“Also, considering Rudin-nim’s contribution, you will be able to take at least one of most of the items here.”

The contribution mentioned here probably refers to Divine Contribution Points.

In addition, judging from the fact that it mentioned Divine Contribution Points, it seemed like I had to pay those points to take the items here.

Since I already knew that other players purchased Faith skill books with Divine Contribution Points, it wasn’t strange.

‘In other words, it’s a Luxury Shop that can be used with Divine Contribution Points.’

“Please take your time and look around. I will explain it to you.”

Then it would be rather uncomfortable.

Anyway, as I looked around, I was surprised to find that most of them were rare items.

Moreover, since some items were unique, I briefly thought of the Luxury Shop, but I had to immediately change my mind.

Even if you went down to the 2nd floor of the Luxury Shop, all the items were magic grade.

‘It’s definitely worthy of being called a Treasure Vault.’

The problem was the price. No, the Divine Contribution Points, should I say?

I looked at the shield with a white background and a magnificent golden pattern.

Although the color didn’t match the bluish-black color of the armor I was currently wearing, I was still a bit greedy because it was a unique shield.

[Dawn’s Shield] (Unique)

Description: A rare treasure meticulously crafted by the Church of Light. This shield, made by gathering fragments of sacred light that are now nowhere to be found, is not an exaggeration to say that it is the only one in the world. Although it is not a sacred object because it does not contain the power of the God of Light, the fragments of sacred light are most responsive to the power of the Church of Light, so it has been designated as a Church treasure.
