DIVINE SKIN OF THE DARK ANGEL
"Maybe it's the wrong constellation", Ratatouille told me.
"What constellation should I use then?" I asked him.
"You will also need an offering, a magical artifact to complete the empowerment", Meera reminded me.
Meera reminded me about the necessary ingredient that I need to cast my bone empowerment on my templar skills.
"Damnit, I don't have any artifacts or offerings", I said to them.
"Arrggghhhhhh"
The overflow of magic from the Skins of the Lord was now destroying my magical heart.
"You must think of something quick", Meera told me.
Then I thought of something.
I focused my bone empowerment on another magical skill of mine, the Royal Nyx Body augmentation magic. This was the magical skill that granted me passive magical body armor.
"Now, it is the turn for the offering", I said to myself.
I directed my mind to the veins from the Skins of the Lord. Suddenly, they connected to my thoughts and rushed into my bone realm.
To my surprise, once inside my bone realm, the Skins of the Lord transferred their magical essences and nourished the empowerment arraye. The empowerment arraye in turn empowered my Royal Nyx Body Augmentation magic.
"Are you successful?" Meera asked me.
"Yes, a part of the excess magic from the Skins of the Lord has entered my bone realm", I told them.
"Arrrggghhhhh"
However, despite that, the power of the Dark Angel's skin still overflowed my body.
"It is not enough, even my bone magic cannot contain the divine magic of the Skins of the Lord", I told them.
"You have one more magic source, your soul", Meera told me.
I have awakened my soul magic and developed a soul realm. However, my soul realm was overtaken by the nascent soul of the Dark Angel.
"How can I use my soul magic? I've already lost it to the Dark Angel", I asked them.
"Just bloody suck the excess magic into the soul realm", Ratatouille told me suddenly.
There was only one more thing that I could do. I summoned the Dark Vortex.
"Dark Vortex"
Suddenly, Dark Vortex was summoned in my body. As the vortex opened its dark maw to draw in its offering, suddenly the excess magic from my Skins of the Lord rushed into the vortex.
The magic that entered the Dark Vortex would reach my soul realm that was now harboring the soul of the Dark Angel. To my surprise the magic of the Skins of the Lord nourished the soul in the realm.
Eventually, the excess magic from the release of the Skins of the Lord was fully absorbed and contained.
I fell to the ground unconscious.

"Incarnate, you have obtained my divine skin", the voice of the Dark Angel said to me.
"The damn skin almost killed me. If I have known that you can absorb its magic, I wouldn't claim the Skins of the Lord", I told the soul of the Dark Angel in my soul realm.
"I am the soul of the Dark Angel. I cannot reclaim my divine body, you must accept the Skins of the Lord for me, although the magic from its fusion into you will benefit me", the Dark Angel told me.
"What does the Skins of the Lord do?" I asked the Dark Angel.
"The Skins of the Lord is the magic essence of my divine skin. It is indestructible by mortal means", he told me.
"Really, if the Skins of the Lord is on me now, my body will become indestructible?" I asked him.
"The Skins of the Lord is indestructible although it might not protect the rest of your body that is not divine and its magic is not comparable to before, when I possessed it, it is now merely a fragment of its former magic", he replied to me.
"Well, it should be good enough for most mortals I guess", I said to him.
"Mortals are not what you should be worried about. The battles ahead will not be easy and reclaiming my skin is the first of many steps", the Dark Angel said to me.
"Nothing is ever easy", I said to him.

"What happened to you?" Meera asked me.
"I guess my magical heart broke again after receiving the fusion surplus magic from the Skins of the Lord and my soul realm too", I told her.
"That is cause for celebrations", Meera said to me.
"Being alive is cause for celebrations", I told her.
"How many levels did you promote this time?" Ratatouille asked me.
"Both my Templar and Soul magic are at Uranus Tier Level 6. I've increased five levels by the magic of the Skins of the Lord", I replied to him.
"At the rate you are improving your magic, soon the whole of the Ten-Kingdoms will not be your match in power", Ratatouille said to me.
"My enemies are not just mortals. To defeat those divine beings, my magic is still far from enough", I replied to him.
"Don't worry, we will prevail in the end", Meera said to me.
"Shall we leave this damn place now?" Ratatouille asked me.
"Yes, but before that I must recall my Malevolent Slaves", I said to him.
I recalled my Malevolent Slaves and soon they returned to me. But to my surprise, Alpha spoke to me.
"Master, we bring new souls", Alpha said to me to my surprise.
"Really, you manage to recruit souls without the Dark Vortex scaring them", I said to Alpha.
"The Dark Vortex is summon", Alpha said to me.
"Damnit, I forgot. I did summon the Dark Vortex earlier. It didn't go around stealing souls this time, but I guess its presence is enough to scare the souls to join us", I said to them.
"At the rate you are taking in Malevolent Slaves, you will soon have an army of them", Ratatouille said to me.
"Master, you will need an army during the Battle of Armageddon", Meera informed me.
"Fine, Alpha, gather as many souls as you can", I commanded my first Malevolent Slave.
"We should leave this realm now", I said to them.
"Erm… we should get dressed first", Meera told me and reminded me.
"Damn", I replied to her when she came to hug me one more time.
"Go get a room", Ratatouille said to us.
