Chapter 1380: The Obvious Choice



Skullius, of course, chose to unorthodoxly augment the calibre of his Andori through the shard of Broader Existence from the Doom Knight.

It might have made more sense to create a separate reserve of Amras, but Skullius deemed that unnecessary for the moment. Even if he managed to double his current reserves of Amras, it wouldn't help him much if he didn't have higher attack power for future battles. Besides that, he had just gotten a massive stock of Exora Mead. Granted, it didn't resolve the problem of Amras perfectly, but Skullius would be able to replenish it, however slowly.

It might have also made sense for Skullius to use the shard to create a powerful shield that he could use to defend his Broader Existence in case an attack reached it, but that also seemed needlessly extra when Skullius had just gotten an Immortal Void Physique that granted him higher values than the previous to his Broader Existence defences. The Embodiment of Accelerant Starlight even offered him 75% resistance to attacks two whole leagues above his own defences - higher tiered Andori, Exotic Parlous Natures, and Treasures.

And thus, with this reasoning in mind, the Hybrid Warmoth set his mind on enhancing his Andori.

[You are only capable of edifying a single Andori below the Cosmic tier with the siphoned shard of Broader Existence]

[The selected Andori will be raised to the Third Ascendant tier at once]

'Woah!' Skullius was stunned. He could have clapped his hands in excitement, but that would have drawn too much attention. Even if everyone behind him was mostly aware that he was looking through the guidance field, it wouldn't do to act so shamefully. But perhaps such a reaction would be warranted.

'The Ascendant tier... That's a whole tier higher than my current strongest Andori, [Entropy's Harmonising Nimbus], well, if I'm not temporarily raising the power of my [Legion Eyes] using Maximum Jaqquezjaqqz, that is,' Skullius thought. 'An Ascendant tier Andori can bypass a Void Clot easily, as Uyuniya said earlier... and as proven by the Doom Knight. That's a huge jump in strength.'

Skullius turned giddy.

His mind bubbled with ideas and speculation even without the influence of his thought phantoms.

Power equal to the Andori the Doom Knight had used to almost kill him and Uyuniya when they were in the Void Clot... This needed some deep thought. Skullius wanted to elevate an Andori that would instantly turn the tables against incredibly powerful foes, especially those of a Divine kind.

He already had an idea about which Andori to choose.

His own thoughts gnawed at him, screaming the name of the man he hated most at the moment.

"You're right, you socketholes," Skullius said to the phantoms. "I didn't realise hearing your voices, chalk full of confidence, would make me start feeling better."

"You better believe it," one of the phantoms cried.

"We will enjoy putting you to the side when it's our time to pilot the body, don't you forget

it."

"What are you waiting for? Let's see the upper potential of [King of Severing Twilight: AfterDark]!"

"Yeah!"

There was no need to emphasise this fact, but it needed to be stated again.

Andori were stubborn abilities that could only be bolstered permanently by increasing the quality of the Broader Existence they inhabited. Skullius using Maximum Jaqquezjaqqz on [Ruining Cutter] and [Elusive Meta Carver] to create the mutations [False Tickler] and [Nonstandard Splicer] respectively, had only been a temporary boon. These Andori were not established in his Broader Existence. They could only be accessed by continuously funnelling Maximum Jaqquezjaqqz into the target Andori.

Thus, what Skullius was about to do was extremely outlandish. There were only a few dozen beings in all of reality that had ever used such a method to improve the quality of their

Andori.

'Now, let's do this!' Skullius thought and he invoked the guidance field.

[You have selected 'King of Severing Twilight: AfterDark' to be raised to the Third Ascendant

tier]

[Please wait...]
