Chapter 6 - Throne thief.

[Mana Amplifier: This skill boosts the potency of magical abilities. Spells cast under the effect of Mana Amplifier are significantly stronger and consume less mana.

Soul Snatcher: This skill allows you to capture and store the souls of defeated enemies.

Weapon Assimilation: This skill allows you to absorb weapons and integrate their properties into your body.

Curse Resistance: You're highly resistant to curses.]

'Well that's quite the skill to be honest, so basically, I can capture souls of other creatures?'.

[Correct?]

'That's way too overpowered. Why do I feel like there's a condition to this.'

[There is. If the soul is not weakened, it makes it difficult, and the user's body has to be in a stationary motion, with no strength to fight back.]

'Ahh, see now that makes sense.. carry on'.

[Blade Mastery: This skill grants you expertise in using bladed weapons.

Aimbot: This skill allows you to execute perfect precision with ranged attacks, ensuring that your strikes are accurate and on target.

'Hmm…'.

Vine Bind: Lumin can summon vines from the ground to entangle and restrain his enemies.

Soul Bind: Lumin can bind the souls of defeated enemies to himself.]

'Oh good you're done.' The Blop moved closer to the skeleton.

[There are a few skills that could be merged, would you like me to proceed?]

'Uhn uhn.' The Blop replied, jumping around the throne as if looking for something.

[Merging the skill Soul Snatcher, Soul Bind, and Beast summoning.]

[You have gained a new Ultimate skill, Soul Dominion.]

[Soul Dominion: Grants you the power to dominate, strengthen, and control the souls of those he acquired, binded or summoned.]

'Eh? That's actually quite helpful no? Hehe, I can already think of things I can do with that, even for the four Blops I have with me.'

Finally, Lumin stopped in front of the throne, its tentacles helping it to find its way right on the seat of the throne.

'Oh hell yeah, this is what I'm talking about. This seat has an irritable amount of aura to it. Even now I feel like I'm the one incharge of this room. Hahah, amazing. I'm definitely taking this throne with me."

It leaped down from the chair.

[Predator.]

And just like that, the throne was consumed by his skill, resting somewhere inside the Blop's pocket space.

[You have successfully devoured a material>]

[No necessary skill was gained.]

'Tsk! I wasn't counting on the skills anyway. Well, business here is done, Let Us Get oF heRe".

Just as The Blop turned around to exit the room, he suddenly sensed a new type of energy appear behind him.

Turning around slowly, he noticed the two skeletons standing beside the throne had started to move.

Their eyes glowing red and their body oozing with dark energy.

'Shit! Why are they still alive? Aren't they supposed to be dead?!' The Blop leaped back.

[They are dead.]

[Transferring your mana into the room activated their defensive mechanism. It only took them for them to assimilate the mana.]

'Oh great, perfect. What are the chances they won't attack me since I was the one that awakened them? I doubt…'.

Vrrom!

A speeding arrow charged towards The Blop.

He was quick to counter, shaping its body into a donut shape so the arrow could speed through him.

Just to his left, was another skeleton, in its hand a bow with a magic arrow forming anytime it pulled the string.

'Tsk! There's more! About seven more!' He could tell due to its mana sense. 'Fine, I'll consume them all!!!'.

Switching its legs to that of an insect, the Blop launched itself forward, its body charging towards the two skeletons in front of it.

[Predator!]

The golden mist rushed from its body, but in the blink of an eye, the skeleton had used the mana around it to create a barrier.

Rather than Predator consuming the skeleton, it was digesting the magic energy around the Skeleton.

'Eh?'.

Smash -!

The Blop's body was split into two the moment the second skeleton sliced it with its blade.

Almost instantly, The Blop was able to attach itself in mid air before landing on the ground and instantly taking to its heels.

'Ahh, why didn't that work?!' Lumin yelled as he ran around the room, the skeleton monsters chasing him around.

[It did work, but not on your intended target. These Skeletons have a warrior instinct.]

'Oh yeah good, thanks for the confidence.'

The Blop suddenly stopped, its legs slided against the ground as he faced the closest skeleton he could find.

Lightning surged from its body and stroked the skeleton, its body completely scattering into pieces.

Immediately, he turned to the next Skeleton, who was already launching its own attack with a spear.

The Blop leaped up, mimicking its shape in a low manner and then grabbing the blade on the ground.

With one hand, he managed to slice the head of the skeleton and the spear together.

This kept going for a few minutes, the Blop using its skills to murder every single skeleton that was in the room with it. Not a single one was able to damage it.

After successfully winning the battle, the Bop stood in the center of the room, all around him were broken bones of the skeleton he had just fought.

'Urgh,' it shrugged, 'This is giving me a sense of Deja vu. Wasn't this how I killed those Crawler things?'

Lumin sighed.

'This just makes me look like a mass murderer… I feel so bad'---

'Anyway, let me eat these guys, hehehe, I wonder what skills I'm going to get this time ~~'.
