Leveling Endlessly with the Strongest System!

Roy didn’t know why but the system’s notifications were ringing in his mind just because his uncle killed Voss’s Third Eye.

『Ding! Congratulation. Your Uncle, Arnard Leglaz Orlando Baldwin, has killed Voss’s Third Avatar, The Thousand Eye Giant.』

『It’s detected that it would not have been impossible without your help. You baited half of his true soul of the Ashen Land and had him hunted down in the Ashen Mountain. As a result, you will be duly rewarded.』

‘Eh… It has misinterpreted this situation.’

Roy was certain he didn’t bait that shithead into a trap. Voss came here of his own volition. He had nothing to do with that. But it looks like the system has misunderstood it as his conscious effort.

‘But it works well in my favor.’

Roy threw away his shame and suppressed his honesty in the face of profit. He seemingly had lost all desire to correct it.

The system’s long-awaited notification rang in his head.

『Gained ×100 thousand experience points.』

『Gained ×100 soul-spell strengthening shards.』

“Can I increase the level of my spells with these shards?” Roy wordlessly communicated with it.

『Yes, you can. You can use it to upgrade your soul spells, True Magic Spell Model, and aura technique, such as Black Aura lightning.』

“What about soul-herding ability?

『Soul-spell strengthening shards can’t upgrade ex-rank soul herding abilities..』

If it could, how great would it have been? It would be his greatest cheat yet. It’s hard to awaken an ex-rank soul shard. Some people don’t even know of its existence. Arlo had his ex-rank soul shard for more than four decades, but he had only been able to awaken it three times, and it has been around 20 years since he started working to awaken it a fourth time. From this, one can see how hard it is for an ex-rank soul herder to awaken abilities.

Although it’s been a while since Roy became an ex-rank soul herder, he still had no clue how to awaken his second soul herding ability.

‘Since I can’t use it to upgrade my soul herding ability, I better use it on something good.

Roy’s eyes narrowed. He had quite a few overpowered soul skills. But he wanted to max out the fire-control skill before them all. Only with it would he be able to destroy Voss’s eternal soul for good.

“Use all of them to strengthen my fire-control skill,” Roy commanded the system wordlessly. action

『All the soul-spell strengthening shards have been consumed.』

『The fire-control skill has leveled up. It has reached the seventh level. You have gained the following perks』

『You can instantly upgrade your self-created fire to the seventh level.』

『You can nullify level 1 to 6 fire magic.』

『Your self-created fire can corrupt Level 7 magic. Corrupted fire is like a limb of your own. You gain absolute control over it.』

“Level 7? I can still upgrade it.”

Roy has received a lot of things from the ancestral land. He had many red orbs. They could be used to create skill points. He was planning to use them to upgrade his fire control skill.

『Do you want to condense your red orbs into SPs?』

“Yes, use them to create as many skill points as you can.” Roy mentally communicated with it.

『Hundreds of red orbs have been used to create Skill Points.』

『You have gained 13 skill points.』

“Use them all to increase the level of my fire control skill.”

Roy commanded, and the system got to work.

『13 Skills Points have been dumped into the fire-control skill』

『Ding! Congratulations. Your Fire-control skill has leveled up twice. It has reached the ninth level』

『You have become the Master of Fire.』

『You can extinguish any fire below the 8th level』

『You can stop any fire spell below the 8th level from manifesting』

『You can instantly upgrade your self-created fire to the ninth level. It can be used to melt Class Weapons or create a fire that can’t be put out by water below the 7th level!』

“Great.”

Roy’s eyes narrowed as a sharp glint flashed in his eyes. His fire control skill only needed to be leveled up four more times to reach level 13. Then, he would be able to create a level 13 fire, and after a month of keeping it burning, it would evolve to level 14. That’s exactly what he needed to take Voss out of the picture.

‘Voss, you don’t have long to live!’

Roy saw Arlo descending from the sky.

He landed on the ground and staggered like a feeble old man. His breathing was quite disorderly, and his complexion wasn’t bright. It was similar to an ill person.

Suddenly, his eyes seem to lose the light in them. He tilted forward and was about to fall to the ground when Roy supported him. Damien lowered the hand he had raised to help Arnard.

‘It looks like he is no longer without friends.’ A slight smile was revealed on Damien’s face. ‘Well, that’s a good thing.’

“Uncle? Your complexion looks too poor. Are you alright?” Roy asked in a worried voice.

“It’s the aftereffect of using my ability too many times.”

Arlo’s soul herding abilities consumed a lot of energy to activate. Power Defy could nullify all types of skills, abilities, and spells, but the energy consumption depended on the level of skill that Arlo wanted to stop from taking effect or materializing.

Normally, he would use it consciously.

But while fighting Voss, he had no choice but to activate it repeatedly. Or else, he or the others would have been cursed.

“I will be fine after resting for a while. Don’t mind me.”

Arlo was out of energy and dead tired. If he had hair, it would have turned white. Thankfully, he was bald. But he was a manly man, and he stopped leaning on Roy and stood on his own two feet, supporting himself.

“See, I am fine.”

Arlo smiled at them as his muscles cried out loud, and loud farts escaped his body repeatedly. He wasn’t in control of it. They could see that.

“Your creaking muscles are saying something else,” Damien shook his head at him.
