< Black Sun >

Rating - ?????

Proficiency - 0.01%

Legend has it that in a time when the Forgotten god was consumed by rage, he unleashed his fury upon the scorching sun. The cataclysmic aftermath resulted in the complete devouring of the sun god's radiant aura, leading to the formation of a pitch-black sun. It is said that only when the sun god humbled himself and begged for mercy did the forgotten god retract his wrath.

The believers of the forgotten god, witnessing this spectacle, were awestruck by his immense power. They bestowed upon this power the ability to materialize as a weapon engulfed in lethal black energy, thus giving birth to the formidable force known as the 'Black Sun,' causing the host's weapon to materialize a deadly black energy.

Effect: This skill dramatically amplifies the host's attack power.

The forgotten god, an enigmatic figure, expressed his emotions through the art of dance. Whether he was experiencing joy, anger, sorrow, or surprise, he channeled his innermost feelings into graceful movements. As his followers witnessed his transcendent dance, they too began to imitate his steps and bestowed upon it the name of the "Dance of the Death God."

Effects: This extraordinary technique taps into the user's subconscious, responding to intense emotions and automatically triggering the dance of the death god. Depending on the specific emotion experienced, various effects manifest within the host.

Whenever the host feels strong emotions, the technique will activate automatically and the host will start the dance of death god.

Depending upon the emotion that the host feels, different effects will occur.

Anger - Strength of the host will increase temporarily.

< Death's Embrace >

Proficiency - 0.02%

The forgotten god, once the ruler of death, has vanished without a trace. His loyal followers now wander the world, burdened by a curse that binds them to an existence devoid of true release. As the chosen Apostle of the Forgotten god, it falls upon you to grant them the gift of a dignified death, relieving them of their undeserved suffering.

Effect: The power of Death's Embrace awakens automatically when the demise of a follower of the Forgotten god is detected within the host's vicinity. Depending on the followers' desires to continue their service to the forgotten god or not, their souls are either absorbed or allowed to pass on to the afterlife.

"What in the world are these skills?" I pondered as I delved into the description of each ability, one by one. The uniqueness of these skills both fascinated and perplexed me, urging me to explore their depths.

The Dance of the Death God, in particular, caught my attention. The notion of starting a dance based on one's emotions was captivating yet unnerving.

"What does it mean by starting a dance….?"

Images of myself dancing like a marionette, controlled by unseen forces, sent shivers down my spine.

"...."

But despite my apprehension, the potential behind this technique was undeniable.

Depending upon my emotions, I could experience an enormous surge in power according to what the artifact displayed about the technique's description.

Just the surge in power of the technique when suppressed to 1-star, that I experienced in the exile was so strong that my body collapsed not being able to withstand the pressure.

But what if I could endure it?

The thought of it made me excited.

Although it is a little concerning that some of my stats would decrease in certain conditions, it was something that is acceptable when considering all the other positive effects.

On the other hand, the Black Sun skill resonated deeply with me. Although I had yet to unlock its full potential, the mere thought of increasing my attack power filled me with hope. The fact that it was a rare 5-star skill only intensified my anticipation. I could only imagine the immense scale of power waiting to be unleashed.

As for the third skill, Death's Embrace, I couldn't fully comprehend its implications. What did it mean to grant someone a true death? The concept eluded me for now, and I chose to set it aside temporarily, focusing on the skills that resonated more strongly with me.

Overwhelmed by the revelations before me, I decided to assess my own progress. With trepidation, I opened my status page to examine the changes that had occurred within me

"Am I seeing things again?" I questioned, my eyes widening in disbelief. The stats had skyrocketed from the depths of a two-star knight to a Pseudo 3-star knight, all in the span of a single day. It was an astonishing leap in power.

The realm of Pseudo rank stood as a transitional phase between lower and higher ranks, where an individual possessed strength surpassing that of a lower rank yet fell short of the standards of a higher rank. This state of limbo was commonly observed during the transition from two-star to three-star, hinging on the acquisition and mastery of Aura.

In my case, despite not having mastered Aura, my physical abilities had long surpassed those of an ordinary two-star knight. The sudden surge in power was both bewildering and exhilarating. It made me question if I had already caught up to my former self.

"Could it be that I have already surpassed my past life?" The realization struck me like a thunderbolt. In my previous life, I had achieved the rank of a four-star knight, but my strength and prowess were confined to the peak of a two-star knight with only arm. Now, in this new existence, I had already surpassed the limitations of my former self.

And In a sense, I am more powerful than I was previously. The amalgamation of my past experiences and the addition of these extraordinary skills had elevated me to heights I had never thought possible.

The regret that had gnawed at my heart, stemming from the loss of 260 ranks, dissipated like morning mist in the face of the rising sun as I once again perused my status, taking in the exhilarating details.

The feeling of empowerment, of being promoted to a higher realm, washed over me like a cool breeze on a scorching day.

"Getting stronger feels amazing!"

It was a feeling that would get an individual addicted!

Anyway as I finished reading through all the unread notifications and my status, I concentrated on the things that has to be done in the future.

Soon, the academy is going to conduct an event that is exclusive to the top 100 freshmen rankers and I had to find a way to get into the event.

It was very important event that I couldn't miss. It was the whole reason why I choose a ineffective weapon like a magic powered gun which had clear limitations as one of my weapons.

It is to obtain 'that' weapon.

A Weapon which would help to negate the fundamental flaw with the magic powered guns, that is to increase the attack power of the gun based on the magic power injected into to it.
