Chapter 355: Curse of the Overlord

After that, Charles activated the [Vision] skill and checked his future for the next few minutes.

'Hmm, there is no anomaly… It's safe to Rank Up.' A smile crept on his face.

Then, he zeroed his focus on the main class section and checked the Rank-Up mission.

…

…

Charles entered his Inner World and soon reappeared in front of the large System Cube.

Then, he waved his hand and gathered all of his memories towards him.

Within a few seconds, countless pebbles, lava liquids, and even some strange rocks appeared above his head and started fusing into a humanoid shape.

Soon, the humanoid shape landed on the ground and stood beside him.

Unlike the separate consciousness, there were only memories that appeared in the humanoid form.

Charles glanced at the memories and then started creating purple flames.

Within a few seconds, he created a defensive shield-like thing and enveloped the humanoid being.

After that, he glanced at the notification and poured 1,254,140 Exp points into the Main Class section.

Meanwhile, the System Cube let out a strange vibration and released one of the two red-colored Class-Gems into the Inner World.

Just as the red gem came out of the System Cube, it dissolved into a gas-like substance and released some strange eerie black energy in all directions.

Upon seeing this, Charles closed his eyes and started focusing his full attention on his Inner World.

At that moment, he saw some invisible eerie smoke-like power seeped into many parts of his Inner World and finally entered the deepest part of his soul.

The mysterious power soon bumped into an invisible wall that blocked his soul from improving and clashed against it.

To his surprise, Charles noticed that this mysterious power was using his wisdom power to break the invisible shackle!

After a few seconds of clashing, the mysterious power completely broke the invisible shackle and soon disappeared from his Inner World!

Simultaneously, Charles felt some invisible chains suddenly shattered away from his body.

'The invisible shackle is broken.'

Muttering Inwardly, he dismissed the purple shield, released his memories, and then left the Inner World.

A second later, he opened his eyes and soon noticed that dense fire-elemental energies appeared all over the surroundings.

Countless fire sparks and even lava balls materialized in the surrounding atmosphere and started affecting the ashy mountain!

But Charles knew that this was just a fragment of his original power.

He quietly stood up from the ground and then cast [Crimson Robe] spell on himself.

Then, he looked at the surrounding mountain range and released his wisdom power.

The next instant, the fire sparks, and lava balls began to expand and spread in all directions!

In a few seconds, the whole mountain got enveloped in lava liquids.

Not only that but more than hundreds of 300-meter tall fire pillars rose towards the sky!

Red, purple, eerie black, sunshine yellow, and even blue-colored fire pillars appeared in front of his eyes!

Those fire pillars directly landed on the rocky mountain and even started burning the sand and rocks.

Within a few seconds, the whole surroundings turned more like a doomsday!

'T-This is just my normal wisdom power… If I construct an attack spell, it might even erase a mountain!' He was shocked inside.

He soon retracted his wisdom power, dismissed those towering fire pillars, and looked around.

He then once again waved his hand, controlled his wisdom power, and then cast [Flame Teleportation] spell.

A second later, he enveloped his body in a crimson flame, disappeared from there, and reappeared at the foot of the mountain.

He then searched the surrounding area and soon found a small cavern.

After that, he walked into the cavern, found a suitable place to sit, and then closed his eyes.

A second later, he entered his Inner World and soon appeared in front of a lava pool.

Without wasting any time, he rose towards the sky and flew towards the spell models faster.

A few seconds later, he reached the dark sky and soon appeared near the spell models.

'Hmm, I have 3.9 million Exp points. With this amount, I can construct more than three spell models. Unfortunately, I don't have enough time. If my guess is right, it will take more than 15 days to construct a single spell model. I wouldn't be surprised if the system takes a month to create a spell model.' He frowned for a moment and soon made up his mind.

'I'll construct a single spell model. Then, I will continue my plan and try to enter the dungeon. But before that, which spell should I choose? Attack spell model?' He instantly dismissed that idea.

At this moment, Charles's aim was not to kill others but to survive.

'I can vaguely tell that the one who is going to kill me is not some random Rank-5 but possibly a Rank-6 or someone with special status. But this enemy is nothing more than a mere puppet of the Edhen World's Will! So, simply relying on attack force won't even help me defeat this Adur. I need something special. Something terrifying that would make everyone fear.' As those thoughts surfaced in his mind, Charles opened the Game Interface, clicked the Spell Book icon, and soon zeroed his focus on the [Black Inferno] spell.

The next instant, a list of Wicked Fire corresponding spell names appeared in front of his eyes.

Charles looked at the spell one by one and soon froze as he saw a strange name,

'Curse of the Overlord… Overlord?' He raised his eyebrows in surprise and read the description.

[Spell: Curse of the Overlord

Description: Once you cast this spell, an origin string of the Wicked Flame will come out of your hand and enter your opponent's body. After that, this string will attach to your opponent's Dark Space, corrupt their memories stealthily and let them think of you as their Overlord. The one who created this spell was the former Overlord of the Hell Plane. He tricked countless Devils, enslaved them using this spell, and conquered multiple planes when he was younger. As long as you have higher wisdom power than your opponent, you can easily enslave any being.

Cost: 1,333,500 Exp points.]

As Charles read the description, his expression turned serious all of a sudden.

'This is it!' He didn't hesitate for a moment and clicked the select option.
