In the Green Beast Forest, the Hobgoblin stood up with a grim expression. "He died... What would happen now?"
At this very moment, he suddenly felt his soul begin to quiver. A change began to take place. The Hobgoblin was startled. In just a few moments, a dark light that could swallow everything enveloped him. In the end, the dark light receded revealing a young man.
Dylan looked at his hands and feet. He actually resurrected on the body of the Hobgoblin!
However, he replaced the Hobgoblin and returned to his previous human form. Essentially, everything he had previously, such as his levels and skills, were retained.
'It seems it's another application of my split soul. As expected of Black skill. It's not that simple. I can resurrect to the bodies my soul fragments seizes whilst also transforming them into my original human form. Doesn't this mean I'm like Orochimaru or Voldemort? Fuck! This is a pseudo immortality!

...
Dylan let out a sigh of relief. 'Fortunately, the level didn't regress, and my panel was unchanged.'
Then, on the soul fragments panel. Due to the death of Berserker Deer and him replacing the Hobgoblin. They essentially entered unused state.
'Don't worry you two! I will surely find better bodies for you guys.' Dylan felt a bit uncomfortable at the death of the Berserker Deer.
As for him occupying the Hobgoblin's body. He must say that it feels like he kicked his soul fragment out of his house and replaced him as the owner. Then, he renovated it as his own. Isn't this the behavior of a mongrel? Unfortunately, there's no choice. At least, he had another chance at life and his strength was fully retained!
He can only say sorry for his Hobgoblin in his heart.
In the end, Dylan couldn't help but replay the scene of his death. The image of the terrifying young man that made him immobilized and made him explode effortlessly replayed in his mind. A sense of dread appeared in his heart.
Damn it! It was a one-shot kill! That was the suppression of a major realm! After all, that young man, or should he say old foggy on a young man's body, was at the peak ceiling of the Noble Realm. There was no suspense of the result.
Even Orochi, with his various lifesaving skills, might have to accept death in front of that person.
'It seems my speed of casting spatial dominion for escape is too slow in the eyes of those who had far exceeded my strength.'
'Luckily, it's not without gain. My soul fragment managed to seize the body of that terrifying future heaven genius!' Dylan smiled. 'Under the protection of that 9th Grade Noble Realm Expert. He would be able to grow more smoothly.'
With a sigh, Dylan glanced at his panel once again and saw three extra things. In the skill section, the Hobgoblin's Goblin Horde Control and level 4 throwing skill appeared. Just one level more will reach the maximum level! Although it's only evaluated white, the power of level 4 skill is undeniably strong. As for Goblin Horde control, its practicality was something other skills wouldn't be able to replace.
Following that, under the innate talent. There was the addition of the blue innate talent "Vigorous Body"
Vigorous Body (Blue)- As a human, your physique is comparable to the average demons and demon beasts. An innately strong physique compared to most populations. Your skin, flesh, and bones are tough as steel. The hidden potential in your body is high and you're far more efficient at practicing body techniques.
'This is a good talent. Anything that can enhance the body is a windfall!' Exhilarated, Dylan clenched his fist. 'Demons and beasts are known in the game to have an advantage of powerful physical body than humans. Though, dragons are the ones that really stood at the peak of physical path.'
With the addition of a Vigorous Body, a transformation took place in Dylan's body. Every cell began to rot and reborn, becoming robust and compact.
The creak of bones echoed in the cave, which attracted the attention of the goblins. But they didn't dare to get near Dylan.
In the end, Dylan let out a beastly roar on his throat which shook the entire area. A strong aura of explosiveness came out of his body.
At this moment, Dylan opened his eyes and felt his entire body had undergone a great change!
Every aspect, such as skin toughness, the quantity of muscle fibers, and the strength of tendons and bones, everything was enhanced!
He had a feeling that he could punch a hole in the sky. But he also knew that this was just an illusion brought by a rapid increase in the strength of his physical body.
'Innate talents are really a good thing. Now, I can finally rest assured that my body isn't a weak link anymore.'
'It's just evaluated blue now. What if it's a purple body innate talent instead? How powerful would it be?'
*Ding!*
[You can now upgrade your innate talents!]
Dylan, who was just rejoicing with the gains, was suddenly startled. '???'
Then he looked at the goblins that were looking at him viciously. He used his Goblin Horde Control.
The goblins bowed at Dylan fearfully quite instantly.
"It seems when the Hobgoblin died. They were released out of the skill's control. I need to use the skill to them again. What a pain in the ass.'
Then, he communicated with the game system. 'What do you mean by an upgrade? Do you mean white innate talent can now be upgraded to blue, purple, and so on? If so, how?'
[Affirmative! You can now obtain upgrade points by defeating creatures. You can receive 1 upgrade point by defeating creatures with purple innate talent. If they had 2 purple, then it would become two points, and so on. On the other hand, you can receive 10 points for those with gold innate talent. If they had two gold innate talents, they would receive 20 points, and so on. Do you understand?]
