The indomitable black panther flies against the wall and snarls in pain. Ren just notes how much stronger he got from this training. He never thought evolving from scratch would be this much fun.
Ren - Hihihi, I love, I love that hot feeling. And I still have a lot of challenges ahead of me.
The black panther breaks out of the wall and rushes at Ren. Immediately she starts throwing several slashes with her pointed claws. Ren just dodged the blows easily smiling.
Ren - Hi hi hi hi hi hi hi hi!!!
Ren seemed to be dancing and playing with that fight. After a while Ren got bored and the panther got tired.
Ren - What? Are you exhausted yet? Only that? I think I'll get this over with, soon.
Ren grabs the panther's paw with one hand and says:
Ren - For my evolution die!
Black Panther - ROARR!
SPLASH!!!!!!
Ren punches the panther in the belly, leaving a large hole in it and ending the fight.
System - Floor 25 boss has been killed, player stats have been increased, new skill points unlocked, item and spell crafting ability unlocked, current skill level increased.
Ren - And that's it, I think that's it for today, I'm going to my room, it's late.
Arriving at the room, Ren is excited to have acquired new skills.
Ren - HA HA HA HA HA! I ACHIEVED! I'M ONE MORE STEP CLOSE TO COMPLETING THIS TOWER!
Karen - Congratulations Ren Alatar I see you managed to defeat the black panther, the A rank monster.
Ren - Yes, at first it was difficult, but then I ascended as a shadow knight. Soon after I felt stronger and able to face more enemies.
Karen - This is proof that tower training is being effective. If you keep going at this rate, in a little while you'll be much stronger than you are now, but Ren, didn't you have something to do?
Ren - The truth was almost forgotten, I'm going to distribute my skill points and then I'm going to use my crafting skill to create my equipment.
Ren then distributed his skill points and then said:
Ren - Crafting Room!
Ren was teleported to a room full of torches with shadow fire, it had different types of materials that made a person rich in an instant. In the middle of the room there was a throne where whoever sat down could start creating whatever he wanted.
Ren - Karen are you there?
....
Ren - Hmm, I understand. It seems that inside rooms created by my spells the system cannot interfere with what I do. So I think it's time to start forging my equipment.
Ren sat on the throne, shortly after a huge screen full of armor and weapon options appeared in front of Ren.
Ren - Wow, this is amazing. Hmm, let me see this katana. Create!
The katana appeared in Ren's hands
Ren - WHAT! Out of nowhere and so fast?! Hmmm, it means that I can get any weapon that is available in the store, but that's not what I want, I want to create my own items. Let me see the creation option.
On the creation page, there were options for what Ren could create: Armor, swords, spears, bow and arrow, staves, etc. But the armor option was a symbol of restriction.
Ren - What is this? Hmmm, I understand that because I am a shadow knight I can only create and use armor suitable for a knight, that is, armor for assassins and other classes I cannot create. So I'm going to start with the armor so I don't have to worry later.
Ren selected the option to create an armor and soon after several types of customization options appeared, Ren chose a black armor to match his evil power. Then he started dictating the attributes.
Ren - Resistance against magic attacks X, resistance against melee attacks X, resistance against slashing attacks X, immunity to poisons, shadow boots to be able to move faster and heartsteel to not fear the enemy no matter how strong he is. Create!
The armor appears in front of Ren and shortly after Ren started to wear it.
Ren - Wow this is spectacular, thanks to the magic it feels like I'm not even wearing armor and it's actually quite light but it's as strong as steel. Now the sword.
Ren selects the sword option and starts customizing his sword.
Ren - This time I'm going to create the best sword in the world, I don't want a sword like the dark dragon slayer before. The other sword was very good, but it was still weak, thanks to Hercules it didn't break but it cracked so I couldn't use it against him. I want a longsword, with a black scabbard and hilt, one thinner and faster but with the strongest material ever found. I just customized everything now the attributes. Range increased by 80% with this I can cast spells with swords up to kilometers away; 20% increased lethality, 1000% increased magic damage and 1000% magic strength using not only 6 Yggdrasil petals but 30; sword sharpening increased by 50%; stunning damage XIV and to finalize the weapon's enchantment ability with any type of magic of any element. This time I will take it seriously, if I want to rule this world I need a sword that can be my partner, a reliable companion. Finally a name for the sword. Hmmm.... I think I already know, even after losing her I'm still dependent on her, right? No, I think this time I'm going to own her. CREATE!!!!!
System - The player's ultimate weapon was created, the name assigned to it is Laila.
