Viktor walked behind Jessie to the second level training hall. It looked almost the same as the first level training hall, and the only difference was the stone panel's runes and its contents.
Viktor stood on top of the glowing circle, and four messages appeared in his mind.
[Check status]
[Skill Library]
[Practice]
[Realm enhancement]
"Check Status!"
Right after the words left his mouth, the cube started to glow, and a series of mysterious letters appeared, before the actual words appeared in his mind.
[Viktor Romanov]
[Male - 23 years]
[Earth Realm Level 30 - Peak Stage]
[Spirit Energy - Metal - Peak stage]
[Spirit Aptitude - A]
[You have reached the peak stage of the earth realm. You are eligible for a realm upgrade.]
[Peak stage spirit energy detected]
[You are able to choose to upgrade Sky realm level Knight or Magus]
[Upgrade to Sky realm Knight?]
[Upgrade to Sky realm Magus?]
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtViktor looked at the options before asking Jessie. "What is this now?"
Jessie explained that those were the choices available to those who have reached the peak stage of Earth Realm. Specifically, a Magus is a class that is only available to those who have reached the peak stage of Earth realm spirit energy.
"You can boost up a person with enough spirit stones to reach peak stage Earth Realm, but reaching peak stage spirit energy is a different can of worms entirely. It requires a lot of time, and how much time needed varies from person to person, though in some degree it is determined by their rank. I have waited a little over a year to finally reach peak stage spirit energy. Now, I can upgrade to Sky Realm Magus instead of Sky Realm Knight."
For people like Viktor with A-rank in spirit aptitude, it only took just a few weeks. Meanwhile, those with aptitude B usually takes a few months, and those with aptitude C would take a few years if not more depending on their training and many other factors.
Jessie was actually very happy that she managed to reach peak stage spirit energy in just a little over a year.
Viktor just realized, that this was the reason why there are two different kinds of sky realm fighters he sensed during the campaign to previous pillars.
The talented spirit enhancer who turns into sky magus and the others who become sky knights.
Early-stage Sky Realm Knight possesses two times the strength of a peak stage Earth Realm, and they could potentially reach 10 times the strength of peak stage Earth Realm with training and time. The advancement brings a great transformation to the human body.
However, as the process to upgrade to the Sky Realm Knight has an adverse effect on the body, Sky Realm Knight would be their final stage. Meanwhile, those who chose to advance into Sky Realm Magus would still have the potential to upgrade themselves and become Saint Realm fighters.
Viktor saw how excited Jessie was, and he watched as the girl walked closer to a magic circle with a spring on her steps before standing in the middle of it. The circle started to glow in a vivid blue color, before the girl was lifted off the ground. She was floating, suspended in the air like she was hung with multiple strings.
Then, spheres of light started to appear around her body and entered her one by one. Considering the amount of spheres, it most likely would take quite a while.
Vikor decided to upgrade his realm as well
[Upgrade to Sky realm Magus?]
"Yes!"
[Five thousand spirit stones are required]
Five thousand spirit stones are a big number, luckily Viktor has earned forty thousand spirit credits from his reward for completing the challenge with a perfect score.
[Use spirit credit]
As Jessie explained before, spirit credit is similar to spirit stones in value, except that it could only be used to exchange for items and skills within the Doomsday Pillars.
However, after confirming the exchange, another notification came to his mind.
[Unable to upgrade to sky realm]
[Spirit credit has been returned]
"What the fuck?!" Viktor cursed, and frantically asked the Djinn for an answer. "What the hell happened?!"
<Kekekekeke… Of course, you can't, you are now under a contract that bound you to fate. Your spirit core, your whole body, and your power belong to fate now. None of those artificial things will help you advance.>
Viktor had a feeling that the Djinn knew it would happen, not to mention how annoying his laughing voice was. He really wanted to curse again, but knowing it would be nothing but a waste of energy, Viktor decided to take a deep breath and ask.
"Okay, Djinn, then tell me what should I do to break through to Sky Realm Magus? Do you want more spirit stones or what?"
Right as the words left his mouth, Viktor suddenly remembered that to upgrade to Earth Realm he needed to pay the Djinn 1000 spirit stones, while the pillar only needed 100 spirit stones.
Now that the pillar needed 5000 spirit stones to upgrade him to Sky Realm, the lamp certainly won't ask him to pay 50.000 spirit stones, right?
Realizing that he only has a limited amount of spirit stones, Viktor hurriedly added with an awkward laugh. "Would you accept spirit stone credits, though? Hahaha."
The Djinn was quiet for a while, as if he was thinking of something, before suddenly answering.
<Actually, breaking through to Sky Realm will cost you nothing in spirit stones… It'll be free.>
"Ha, sure, and the Siberian tundra have all melted by now. No, no, no, I can't believe you, Djinn. There is no such thing as free lunch in this world. Stop blabbering and tell me what's the catch."
<Kekeke, good one, but really, it's free. Just one condition>
"Here it goes, as i said, they're is always something in it"
<No.. No.. just a warning that once you break into Sky Realm, fate will require you to start doing your main quest.>
"This is sounding more and more suspicious by the second. It's not going to be one of that bullshit no sex quest, does it?"
<Kekeke, that one was hilarious! But nevertheless, bear in mind that the quests given by fate are all the best for you.>
Viktor scoffed, remembering the humiliating experience. "I know what's best for me, thank you very much."
<Alright, then I assume you don't want an upgrade right now?>
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"I never said that, you know. Just let me think, give me a minute."
Viktor looked at Jessie, who seemed content and happy as she watched the floating lights enter her body. Seeing her made Viktor wish he could advance as well. After this, he planned to go to
Not only that, he had just made a new record and reached the top rank in terms of completion. Right now, he has no other option than to go up in power. He couldn't take it easy and stay as an Earth Realm forever.
"Okay then, Djinn, hit me with the quest. Let me advance into the sky realm!"
<Heh, that's a great choice, coming right away>
Right after the Djinn finished speaking, Viktor could feel the heat coming from the magic lamp in his pocket. He took out the lamp and saw they were glowing in white-reddish light. Before Viktor could ask what happened, a light came out from the bronze lamp and entered his chest.
From his chest, Viktor could feel a sort of thrumming along with a sense of spreading warmth. The energy was coursing through his body, creating a pattern of ebb and flow similar to a river.
[Processing the upgrade from Earth Realm to Sky Realm.]
Viktor felt his whole body receive hundreds of injections simultaneously throughout his body. Suddenly, streams of energy churned through all 108 meridian veins in his body.
Peak stage Mortal realm elevates the human body to its maximum potential, while the Peak stage Earth realm induces the spirit power to synergies with the meridian within the human body.
With the synergization of spirit power, it increases the physical prowess of the body by tenfold. When peak stage Earth realm expert reaches the Sky realm, a knight is someone who managed to successfully combine physical body and spirit power to its entirety. While for the Magus, its centralize all the spirit power into a spirit core within the body. This spirit core became the source of spiritual power for all the magus.
It took probably an hour before the process finally completed, as if being reborn, Viktor felt unfamiliar with the new power that flows through his body.
[Realm upgrade was successful]
[You have reached a breakthrough into a new realm.]
[Sky realm level 1 - initial stage]
[You have received 50 status points that can be freely distributed!]
[You have received 1 magic point]
[You received a new Quest]
