Chapter 8 World Building part 1
I sat on my grand throne in contemplation. My eleven prisoners knelt before me without any restraint watching me. They learned early on their captivity how I valued silence. Peter who happened to be a defiant mutinous trash talker is floating in a corner as an example. I removed his arms, legs and mouth at my will. Of course it's just temporary, I will give it back. I don't have any intention of killing or absorbing any one of them. Unless they gave me a reason to do so, which I explicitly explained to them. Right now I need silence to ponder.
I reflected on the things that happened. I'm beginning to understand my skill classification. To my dismay, I'm not a hard hitter.
My domain spell is godlike in strength but it is limited in my shadow realm. And it's not easy to capture my opponents openly unless they belong to the dark race. I have a fix for that but it's not for open warfare.
My Split or what I now called Sunder Skill is superb but limited to how many I can manage effectively at the same time. I learned I can manage five or Six outside of combat, and a maximum of three for fighting.
What dismayed me is that sixty percent of my power is compromised by that cursed Thorn of Ra.
My main is sleeping and recuperating. I lost twenty percent of my life when One and Two died. My main is in charge of regenerating my life force, and keeping the PAIN away from me. I learned from my Princess that sleeping can heal me for one percent per one week of continuous sleep. Or I can absorb ten souls to cure one percent of my lost life. I prefer sleeping at the moment. My power bank will serve as an emergency back up.
I'm sitting at my fifteen percent power. My other five percent has been sundered to five avatars with one percent of my life each. They are now roaming in this realm spying for knowledge and opportunity.
My Shadow Shift is my main way of mobility. I can travel from one place to another through my Shadow Realm. The foremost reason my spies are roaming the Ancient Realm now. Apparently I can only shadow shift to places that I'm familiar with. Without my spies the only place that I can enter the Ancient Realm is through the summoning ground which is now heavily guarded by the last time I checked. The fool Silas thought it's my only point of access, I can use that to my advantage.
My Avatar on the other hand is a Tank Support build. The good thing is that I recently discovered that my Avatar can change its appearance and disguise. which is very important in spying.
This brings me back to my skillset classification. I'm not a Hard Hitter. I'm a Tanker Support Buffer which is right now a great disadvantage for me. It means I can't fight my opponents openly. My class type will also dictate the way I will start my World Building. I have to shift to stealth and subversion.
