My Space-Time System

Chapter 560  New abilities.

[Moving over to your new element abilities. Let's start with the weakest of the 2.] The system said.

'2?' Blake began wondering if the system lost its ability to count.

[When you advance to the demigod realm, the power of all your elements gets a boost, but it is only your primary element that gets new abilities.] The system explained.

'Why didn't you tell me this long ago?' Blake was disappointed.

[Would it change anything?]

'At least my disappointment wouldn't be this much.' Blake shook his head as he gestured for the system to continue with its explanation.

[The demigod realm of the lightning element is called Speedster. At this point, the core abilities granted by pathways are more of concepts of the element than just elemental abilities.]

The first skill was Speed drain. Unlike Energy drain that needed contact, Speed drain would gradually drain the speed of everything within 10 meters range of Blake, while adding a percentage of the stolen speed to him.

The second skill was speed bestowal, which allowed the user to boost the speed of others by giving out his.

"This might not seem too useful because it will reduce my speed, but after siphoning the speed of things around, I will have more than enough speed to give out." Blake analyzed as he thought of the application of Speed Bestowal.

The third ability was Electricity mimicry, which allowed Blake to turn multiple parts of his body into lightning at the same time. This would make targeted parts of his body immune to physical attacks.

Electricity Solidification and Living Lightning were the 4th and 5th abilities. The former as the name implied, enabled the user to compress lightning into a sold form or constructs. As for the latter, it gave the constructs a simple mind that allowed them to act without being controlled by him, but also in accordance with his will.

The two problems with this were that at Blake's current level, he could only use Living Lightning on small constructs and the minds given to them were not permanent. After 10 minutes the constructs will lose their sentience.

"Let's check this out." Blake opened his palm and a raven made out of lightning formed. Without having anything in mind, the raven just stared at him waiting for a command.

'Fly around and land on my finger.'

Immediately the thought formed, the raven took flight and circled around the room before coming back to his finger.

"It seems to have a mental connection with me." Blake was impressed because he already had hundred and one ways to use the constructs.

He dispelled the raven and gestured for the system to continue.

[The 6th ability is lightning amplification. You are able to double the strength of lightning fired at you and redirect it to a target. Note that this doesn't make you immune to the attack, so you will still take damage from the attack.] The system explained.

"This is where my lightning resistance will come in handy, but why do I feel that this is not meant to be used against other speedsters?" Blake couldn't help but imagine two speedsters amplifying and redirecting lightning at each other.

[Then it will be a test of who can last longer.] The system chuckled before continuing. [The 7th and final ability is Speed domain. It will automatically take effect when you activate your domain, but you can also use it outside your domain, but its range of effect will be smaller.]

The Speed domain was a stronger version of the speed drain, the only difference was that anything inside the range of effect at the start of the spell will instantly have a portion of their speed taken. After that, their speed will be constantly drained at double the rate of Speed drain.

"Speed is truly King!" Blake was extremely impressed by the new lightning abilities, especially considering they included an increase in the destructive power of the lightning element.

After the system was with listing out the new lightning abilities, it went straight to the space element.

[The name of the Demigod realm of the space pathway is called Astromancer. Normally, this comes with 6 abilities, but thanks to the inheritance having the Time Authority, you got 2 more abilities.]

The first core ability of an Astromancer was gravity control. This was a stronger version of telekinesis, but it wasn't just used for throwing people around. Gravity control came in different forms like the creation of mini black holes, gravity slash, gravity bullets, force fields and so on.

[The second ability is being able to create a pocket dimension. This isn't new because you could already access it beforehand thanks to me. However, the only different thing is that you can now open a portal and enter directly.] The system seemed to remember something. [Also, the space now increases in size every time you advance; that also includes entering other stages of the Demigod realm.]

"Let's go check it out." Without wasting a second, Blake opened a spatial corridor to a spatial coordinate that was now always present in his head.

On getting to the other side of the spatial corridor, Blake saw Ebony and Ivory in their Haiti and Skoll form, as well as all the items he had been storing over the years.

"Congratulations on evolving!" Ebony and Ivory pounced on him and began licking his face.

"Thanks… guys!" Blake was surprised to find out that his connection with his pets had been strengthened by his advancement. Their mental mode of communication was no longer just feelings and a few words, but complete sentences.

After Ebony and Ivory finally let him go, Blake began looking around his pocket dimension.

The pocket dimension was a large expanse of land floating in a hidden area of the void. It was covered by a translucent dome that not only protected it from the dangers of the void but also provided live footage of what was going on in the real world.

"So this is like my own base." Blake's eyes gleamed as countless thoughts ran through his head.

[You can start constructing a building here, but there is nothing worthwhile you know how to construct at the moment, especially with this amount of space.] The system said.
