Hero of Darkness

a prideful face when he showed these abilities to Elric & expected a face of awe & worship was left speechless.
These were the goddam Divine Abilities for G.O.D. ’s sake.

Author : See what I did there.
Lol

And this guy was complaining how they were inconvenient & only useful for certain situations with no flexible uses.
He had indirectly flipped a middle finger to G.O.D.
himself who once presented all these abilities to all his Summons that came before Elric.
G.O.D.
for the first time in his billions of years of existence felt like crying.
Elric was basically kicking him in the face over and over.
And each time, the intensity was increasing more than before.
Even Kravel gave G.O.D.
a look full of pity.

[Why don ’t you create your own Divine Abilities then ?] G.O.D.
could only retort in his mind.
Saying it out loud would only diminish his image as an almighty God who was triggered just by few words of a dead man ’s soul.

Just as he was about to speak, Elric turned his gaze to the 3 dark monoliths and started checking them out.

Ability Absorption.

Dimensional Law.

Synthesis.

Just as the information about these 3 Divine Abilities was fully processed by Elric ’s mind..
He was out of words.
He read through them and an expression of puzzlement appeared on his face.

The Abilities had details on them such as

Divine Ability: Ability Absorption

Allows the owner of the Divine ability to absorb the physical and magical abilities of the targeted being without any complications or side effects to the owner.
However, the owner will still have to follow through with the restrictions & terms of use for these individual abilities.

Condition: The target whose abilities are to be absorbed must be dead before using this ability on them.
Otherwise, the Absorption will be a failure.
And the target must not have been dead for too long and the physical body must be in a shape enough to completely extract these abilities should they entail having something such as Blood requirements or body parts.
There will be a failure if the target ’s body is destroyed beyond measure or the required quantity needed for ability absorption is inadequate.

Then he read the 2nd Divine Ability

Divine Ability: Dimensional Law

The owner of this Divine Ability has access to all the space & void around them.
They can open the void & enter it without any harm to the physical body.
Also allows a part of the body to be placed inside the void at the same time while the rest of the body exists in the real world without harming the original body.
The distance of travel & time user can stay inside the Void increases with the increase in Mastery of the law.

Condition: The owner must be extremely efficient in the Space & Time law.
Space & Time magic is not related to this ability.
Divine Ability is only accessible when the owner has met the prerequisite conditions.

Then he moved to the 3rd Divine Ability

Divine Ability: Synthesis

Allows the owner to recreate two different Physical Abilities and Magic Skills to form a new Variant based on the working principles of the abilities & skills in the synthesis procedure.
Abilities created will have no side effects on the owner ’s body or mental condition.
This ability can also be used to create creatures by mixing different sets of beings and abilities.

Condition: Certain levels of prerequisite conditions such as physical ability & skills required for the process must be met before synthesis can be done.

The strength & specialty of the creatures created will depend upon the base subjects they were experimented with.

Elric was out of words again.
These 3 abilities were something he did not expect to be here on the list.
He understood why his predecessors didn ’t choose these 3 Divine Abilities even once.

The required conditions for them were indeed very troublesome and hard to achieve.
But Elric was different from all of them.
Unlike those who came before him, they were all either great tacticians, great leaders, or generals of their respective countries and their era.
But none of them had the experience of being an Otaku, a Nerd & a Geek.
So naturally, they found these 3 abilities extremely useless and hard to cultivate.
From a normal person ’s perspective, all of these were not worth choosing at all.

As they needed a lot of time to be perfected and definitely a lot of time would be wasted just to meet the perquisites of these divine abilities.

For example, they will always have to kill someone or a monster to absorb their abilities.
They will have to learn and understand Space & Time Law which was easier said than done.
And Synthesis ability will surely have a lot of restrictions upon it when trying to merge two different abilities & creatures as well.

So in the long run, these 3 Divine Abilities would give them more trouble, waste their time which would hinder their path to becoming stronger and even make things complicated as they will have to do their research and spend a lot of time on it as well.
So these abilities were the worst options available.

But in the next minute, Elric looked at God of Darkness & said, ”I want them.
I want all 3 of them. ”

To his decision, both G.O.D.
& Kravel looked at him together and shouted,

”ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR GODDAMM MIND?! ”
