{Appraisel Complete}
<[Concept of Worship]: 10% Complete>
"HOLY SHIT!" I shouted
This was crazy, [Heros Will] is a Divine Grade Skill and rewards this much for appraising it.
"Uh wow." Brakos said confused "I don't remember it being that high Grade, it should be Legendairy at most. Not to mention the [Concept of Worship], I have never heard of it before."
"Wait how is it a Divine Grade Skill shouldn't that only be helped by gods? and I thought Legendary was the highest Grade so why is it used for skills?" I asked Brakos
"Not exactly." Brakos said, "The grades can be used to classify a few things: Entities, Magic Items, Skills, Spells, and many other things."
"as you already know the Grades are Low, Medium, High, Rare, Unique and Legendary. Those are the ones that people in this world know about but above them are the World, Divine, Dimensional and Infinity Grades"
"so I have a skill at a higher level than what is known to this world?" I asked
"Yes." Brakos nodded
"Doesn't that mean it was given to me by a god?"
Brakos shook his head "No I am the only one who interacted with your soul and the books. No god would have been able to do anything unless they had higher authority than me for what I created."
"and before you ask no I am not a god I am considered a Legendairy Grade Entity but in Authority over books and knowledge I am the highest authority in this Era," Brakos said
^What does the Book say about the [Concept of Worship]?^ Volt asked
if it was a good point and I checked but it came up as...
{@)#%@(*>?<|\)*!}
I couldn't understand what it said. I tried giving it to Brakos so he could read it.
When Brakos looked at it he almost fainted when he saw it but quickly composed himself and immediately started reading.
Sitting there watching this brought me back to when I first entered the library and couldn't read the books at first... it then dawned on me that maybe I wasn't capable of reading them as it could be harmful to me.
Seeing Brakos read it as if his life depended on it confirmed my suspicions.
After a minute Brakos finished and was thinking to himself not paying attention to me of Volt.
"um, Brakos?" I said
Brakos flinched as he heard me talk.
'Did he forget we were here?' both I and Volt thought
"What did it say?" I asked
embarrassed and slightly distracted Brakos said, "Sorry I got a bit distracted... um, as you can't read it means it could harm you."
'thought so' I smiled.
"though I can give a brief description. It basically details how Gods gain power from the worship of their followers and how to replicate that power, even if you are mortal."
Both me and Volt sat there shocked.
"so does that mean if I get it to 100% I will be able to use it as well?"
he shook his head "No your body and soul can't handle the strain it would cause. If you get to a certain level then maybe but I am not sure."
"Fun," I said with a smile.
"Anyway I will transfer it to the notebook and give it to you, is that ok?"
"of course. The library doesn't have info on that so hand it over when you can. By the way, did you Appraise the [Otherworlder] Title?"
"Should I have? All it would have told me was stuff I already knew, wouldn't it?"
"True, just checking," Brakos shrugged.
"ok well, I think I will Evolve the book later. for now, can we remove the title?" I asked hoping to get it over with.
"sure thing, though if I am going to remove a title we need a bit more room," Brakos said as he stood up and walked into a larger clearing with both me and Volt following behind him.
when we moved to a flat area Brakos turned around and said "Sit down here and I will set up a barrier to hide us."
I sat down and watched as Brakos used magic and created a large barrier that surrounded us.
"This barrier will hide our presence and prevent damage to the surrounding areas," he said
as he turned around, he pulled out a few chalk pieces from his pocket threw them into the air and almost instantly stopped and floated in midair.
Brakos waved his hands and the chalk started to move around me. Despite the fact it was on grass the chalk still drew like normal.
As the chalk flew around I saw it start to make a complicated magic circle.
"This circle will allow me to remove it with few problems but I must warn you it may hurt and if you leave the circle or move too much you will die, understood," Brakos warned
I nodded and let him continue
after a few minutes the circle was complete and Brakos sat down in front of me but outside of the circle.
"When I begin you should feel energy forcefully leaving your body. Do not try and contain it, try and guide it out. if you feel like it is important move your left hand, if it feels fine move your right hand, I will be watching." Brakos instructed me.
"Volt I need you to keep watch and warn me if anyone approaches."
Volt nodded and started to circle us while keeping an eye on both us and the forest.
"that should be everything let me know when you are ready and I will begin," Brakos said placing a hand on the ground barely touching the circle.
I inhaled and exhaled slowly to calm myself and nodded.
Brakos immediately started to chant in a language I didn't know and the circle started to glow. At first, only the edges were glowing but the slight started to move towards me.
As it got closer to me I could feel a warmth and chill at the same time, it was unnerving.
Eventually, the symbols in the circle started to levitate and become 3D and started to orbit around me. Eventually, the symbols started to fluctuate in their distance from me, moving closer to me and then farther, repeating the same patterns as the ritual started to work.
As I said this I heard Brakos say to me "Think of the Title you want to be removed and add a sight wish for [Heros Will] to be removed as well. It should help."
I gave a slight nod and willed for the circle to remove the [Otherworlder] Title and [Heros Will]

(Unknown) POV
in a world filled with scripts written on stones and dirt, what looked like Code was left behind on almost all matters here. This world was desolate and had no plant life or signs of life in general all except one.
Sitting on a wooden chair, holding a glass of what looked like wine, was a woman. She was under a white cloak and never revealed her face but allowed the rest of her body proportions to be shown.
Although you couldn't see her face you could see the pale skin and red lips of a woman and although she looked human her posture and actions seemed to be more robotic and fidgety. Her voice sounded normal but devoid of emotion and was always spoken robotic-like.
Surrounding her floating above her head were hundreds of various holographic screens, on half of the screen, was a picture of a person and a Profile of them including their Stats listed by their System. Right next to each profile was a display allowing the woman to watch the people under her control.
The woman smiled to herself and let out a small robotic-like chuckle.
'These Mortals have so much fun with my Blessing, what they believe to be gifts from god. It would be nice to correct those who mistake me for a man.' she thought, still in a Robotic way.
She sat there watching but then a warning symbol appeared on each screen and she immediately stood up.
"What the hell!" she shouted for the first time, even though briefly showed any emotion.
She waved her hand and the screens flipped to one of a young boy she had managed to slip a seed of her gift into who was going into the world Primus. he was her ticket in and someone was trying to remove her, she wasn't going to let that happen.
She snapped her fingers and immediately a portal opened and she stepped through.
...
...
...
After the woman left, you could notice something not far off. A single thing that was noticeable only after the strange woman sitting in the wasteland that was her home had left.
A camera was positioned facing just above her head to see the screens but also caught how the woman reacted.
After she left the camera started to fade away but before it did a line of text appeared in front of it before it completely faded away.
[Interesting]

Jacks POV
As I sat there I could feel the energy leaving my body i let it move and leave my body. A head each had started to form a while ago bit but I continued to stay still.
"Almost done Jack," Brakos said
I gave a thumbs up and continued to concentrate on the energy and continued to guide it out and hold onto what I needed.
After a few minutes, the circle glowed brighter and a burst of golden Magic burst from my body but was contained by the barrier. After the light dimmed and Brakos let out a sigh of relief. "The ritual is complete, you are no longer a [Otherworlder] Jack. Primus is now your home"
I moved over and hugged Brakos and thanked him and he hugged me back. When we let go I decided to check the Book just to confirm but before I could...
*BOOM*
We heard a loud boom and turned to see Volt flying through the air toward us and a woman completely covered in a white cloak with a murderous Aura surrounding them.
