The Over-Break System

POV: Cynrik

– Tribulation Quest Generated.-

-You have received the Tribulation Quest: Mirror’s Image.-

-Tribulation Quest: Mirror’s Image.-

-Confident, cocky, intelligent, and arrogance are all attributes necessary when fighting tooth and nail to become the best. However, these aspects of yourself have become a wall you must pass to advance. As such, your opponent for this Tribulation is yourself. The Timeframe and Strength of your opponent are determined by the Difficulty Setting you Choose.-

-Please choose the Difficulty Setting you wish to partake in. *Reminder, a higher Difficulty Setting will result in better Rewards.-

-Difficulties below Master will be removed since you have a Bloodline and have multiple Stats that have Reached their Cap.-

– Master, Grandmaster, Legend.-

“Tsk, of course, there would be a limit to the modes. Let’s think about this logically. The first bump in Difficulty comes from my Capped AGI and DEX; this was bound to happen, especially since there was a notification about added benefits. The second bump was the addition of my Ravens; this is the one that concerns me the most.” Cynrik mused aloud, and he stared intently at the three difficulty levels.

“I am curious about the lower difficulties, but based on Master and Grandmaster, I can assume they followed the same vein as the ones used by Tradeskill classes. Regardless, it doesn’t matter.”

“The simple fact that the notification states there are higher rewards about higher Difficulty grades on top of it increases the strength and level of my opponent who, based on context clues, should be a replica of myself instead of a Nega-Cyn.”

Cynrik paused his train of thought and looked at the two curious Ravens sitting on his shoulders.

“The real question is if my mirrored image will have two cute companions,” smiling as he reached up and scratched Vii and Sie under their chins, Cynrik closed his eyes and processed the available information at lightning speed.

“Our opponents will have all the same gear, the same minds, and most of all, a higher power level. This fight is practically unwinnable at peak Difficulties such as Legendary. Odds are, Master Ranked Mirror Cyn would be what I am now somewhere between Peak Tier-2 and Initial Tier-3, GrandMaster should be Mid-Tier-3, and Legendary would be either Peak Tier-3 or, worse yet, the middle ground between Peak Tier-3 and Initial Tier-4.”

“I can expect my Mirror Image to have my same skill set and mental prowess, which will cause a lot of problems; still, I have never been one to back down from a challenge, so…” Cynrik smirked and extended his arms out, a signal to Vii and Sie to hop onto his wrists.

“Vii, Sie, this will be our hardest battle yet, so we must go all out.” As he said this, the faces of Viisaus and Sielu changed, showing what could only be viewed as discontent.

“I know you both hate wearing them, but you will need to get used to it; our enemies will only grow in number and power, so you two have to be thoroughly equipped for battle.” With that said, Cynrik moved his arms down before suddenly flinging his arms up, launching Vii and Sie into the air.

Next, he waved both hands, summoning two never before seen sets of equipment.

Meanwhile, Vii and Sie circled and began expanding in size until they were as large as a Saint Bernard. Their growth was due to a skill they learned after evolving to Tier-1, [Size Modification].

Using this skill, the two Ravens can grow or shrink up to 4 times their original size; however, their size has no bearing on their power, as instead of getting stronger, their strength stays the same, no matter their size. As the two Ravens got older and increased their Tier, they began growing until they could no longer rest on their favorite perches, IE, Cynrik’s shoulders or head. So once they learned this skill, they preferred to shrink to the size they used to be when they were still Tier-0, which is approximately the size of a fully grown Raven on Earth.

Noticing Vii and Sie, now airborne, were back to their Tier-1 size, Cynrik controlled the two specific sets of equipment by tethering thin strands of Dark Mana and, piece by piece placed them onto the bodies of his Ravens.

Although Cynrik could put their armor on them by hand without trouble, thanks to his high DEX stat, Cynrik found it significantly easier to use his Mana.

Soon, Vii and Sie were decked out in fierce black armor, the likes of which were made of special gauntlets for each of their legs ending in sharp daggered weapons that covered their talons. Next was the form-fitting jointed breastplates. The mixture of metal and beast hide was not only tough enough to stop an attack from a Peak Tier-3 being but also lightweight and flexible.

The breastplate connected with a flexible joint, moving out from their shoulders into long pauldrons that covered the entirety of their arm/wing leaving only their feathers exposed. In a sense, they were wearing full body armor while leaving the necessary tools for flight open and uncovered. Regardless, the edge of the pauldron/gauntlet style armor was razor sharp; all the while, the lightweight allowed for unhindered flight. (I am posting a picture on Discord of a bird wing for you all.)

The final piece of equipment Vii and Sie equipped was an expertly crafted and perfectly fit helmet. However, it had an open face that allowed zero vision loss and protected their skulls from attacks.

After placing the armor, Vii and Sie landed beside Cynrik and were tall enough to reach his hip.

“You both look sharp and fierce,” Cynrik said as he smiled warmly and scratched his Ravens under their beaks.

“Cheepcaw, cheepp,” Sie said, thoroughly enjoying the loving attention.

Vii, on the other hand, kept shuffling about uncomfortably as of the two; he was the one who hated wearing the armor the most.

“Cawchiip,” Vii muttered as he pecked at the breastplate in an unsatisfied manner.

“Bah, quit your whining Vii; you have seen how impressive your battle gear is; it increases your combat strength by a factor of two, which means when you wear it, you are as strong as someone Early Tier-3.” Rolling his eyes, Cynrik gently patted Vii’s helmet, crafted with numerous runes and sharp elongated edges.

In response to Vii getting scolded, Sie shook her head and flexed her wings to get used to the feeling of having them covered with armor.

“Ok, you two, I have already explained the challenge ahead of us, but things have changed slightly; now we are facing ourselves. That means two things; you will not be attacking your own Mirror Image but instead each other. Vii, you will attack Mirror Sie, and Sie, you will be fighting Mirror Vii.”

While he explained the battle plan, Vii glanced at Sie and thought about how he would fight his adopted sister if it came to that. At the same time, Sie was contemplating something similar.

“You will both have to be on your best for this battle. I need you two to handle the opposing Ravens, freeing me up so I can deal with my Mirror Image. There is no doubt that the two enemy Ravens will try their best to hinder my battle, so it will fall on both of you to handle them.

“KAWCHIIP!” Vii said as he proudly puffed up his chest feathers; although it couldn’t be seen because of his armor, Cynrik got the point.

“Good, I will leave it to you then, Vii,” with a smile on his lips, Cynrik swapped his loadout from his school uniform to his recently created CStrife build.

In an instant, Cynrik was wrapped up in an impressive new coat, not different from his last one, with black pauldrons adorning each shoulder. However, now, underneath his jacket was a Tier-3.5 DracoHide leather body armor.

Adorning both of his wrists were two intricate and overbearing to look at gauntlets, his newly upgraded Assassins Tools, which after receiving new parts from Jessup and assembled by Cynrik, had actually surpassed Tier-3 and were now Classified as Tier-4 weapons.

-Custom Assassins Tool (Creed MK7)-

-Tier-4: Special Grade(Upgradeable)-

-Classification: Advanced Bracer with dual revolver Hidden Blade and Ejection mechanisms.-

Designer Cynrik Jetlensr has crafted a Never-before-seen or imagined tool that can house multiple blades, attachments, and hidden weapons.-

-By combining Spatial Separation Technology, the extension mechanic has been modified to quickly and automatically swap blades in a revolver style while storing all other components in a micro-sized pocket space. This Spatial Pocket can be accessed only by the person this Tool is bound to. This device has an upgraded ejection mechanism; by infusing Mana Particles into this device, a hidden blade can be fired from the central housing drawer, giving the device projectile attack capabilities before automatically swapping to one of the reserve blades.-
