Chapter 173: A Small Page of His Story
When James opened his eyes again he realised that he was still inside the catacomb, he didn't know how long he had been unconscious, but he knew that he had succeeded.
He had succeeded in destroying his enemy, and he had done it perfectly.
[You're finally awake, I couldn't come to the catacombs because I don't have access to the catacombs, but nobody does, except people like Ra].
James smiled as he read this message from Nyx with his eyes barely open and looked around, he looked at the wall to his right that had been burnt down and saw that he could still see beyond it.
It was as if James was an astronaut and had made it into space, and the sight was so beautiful that for a few seconds, James could only stare into the void. He was distracted by another message window opening in front of him:
[I haven't seen anyone damage the catacomb itself since the beginning of my life.]
This message from the Titan Hyperion caught James' attention instantly, it made him smile knowing that he had achieved another first, he still had work to do, and trying to talk was not what he should be doing.
He tried to get to his feet but he couldn't, he fell to the floor with a sudden dizziness and then he heard the sound coming from his stomach:
"GROOOOOOOWL!!!!"
The sound echoed through the hall as if a wolf had started to shout next to James and then disappeared through the wall and disappeared into nothingness.
James seemed to have forgotten that he was a human being amid all the action. He quickly took out a protein bar and a drink from his inventory and then destroyed them in ten or fifteen seconds.
He knew his body couldn't recover that fast, so he sat where he was, after all, he might be able to do one of the things he was going to do here.
He opened his inventory again and then pulled out a coffee table, he didn't even remember why he had a coffee table in his inventory but it would come in handy eventually.
After removing the coffee table and laying a blanket over it, James took out the stones he had sent to his inventory, which could add 60 points each to his Power, Agility, Endurance, Magic, Intelligence and Charisma stats.
Each of the stones was different but strangely the same colour and James' strange ability worked again. He could see that these stones, each in a different colour, glowed jet black, which seemed to tell him that these stones were Godly ranked.
[Power Stone(Godly+++++)]
[Agility Stone(Godly+++++)]
[Endurance Stone(Godly+++++)]
[Magic Stone(Godly+++++)]
[Intelligence Stone(Godly+++++)]
[Charisma Stone(Godly+++++)]
James looked at each stone and then took the Power Stone from the coffee table and closed his eyes. Immediately after closing his eyes, the stone miraculously turned to dust and disappeared.
Before James opened his eyes again, he touched the other stones on the table with his eyes closed and the same reaction happened with each stone.
James could feel the changes in his body. Anyone watching him from the outside could also easily recognise these changes.
His body hadn't grown, but the increasing quality of his muscles was evident in the adamant armour called Lux.
The increase in his Charisma was deepening everyone's gaze on him, and even if James didn't realise it or didn't know it, a Charisma stat of over 60 already made him as beautiful as an elf.
His leg muscles were massively toned, this was a combination of Agility and Power statuses, and the increase in Endurance Statuses brought with it a great deal of strength.
James in his current state was indeed equal to the strength of an elf or a dwarf who had reached the 40th floor, he had been beyond human limits for a very long time, even defeating Ariel would be very, very easy now, and he could do it with his constant strength.
James opened his eyes again and saw the notifications forming in front of him:
[Power stat increased by 60 points.]
[Agility stat increased by 60 points.]
[Endurance stat increased by 60 points.]
[Magic stat increased by 60 points.]
[Intelligence stat increased by 60 points.]
[Charisma stat increased by 60 points.]
James realised that his dizziness was gone after he turned off these notifications one by one. His body seemed to have recovered for the moment as his stats increased.
"Now, here's the thing, you know that painting I saw when I entered the catacomb, I want it." James suddenly said that was the other thing he had to do.
As James uttered these words, the onlookers began to refuse to believe that this young man was the same one who had fought for his life a few hours earlier, a few laughed at the look on James' face and the seriousness of his request, while Michael and Lucifer hoped to fulfil it.
[We've already made a special request to Mr Ra, you'll be receiving the painting shortly.]
James smiled as he looked at this message from Michael and then said with a smile, "Wicked, literally the only thing I wanted the most."
James's callousness was truly monumental.
After a short while someone materialised in front of James, James had seen this person with golden hair standing in front of him before at the feast, of course, he recognised him.
Ra quickly handed the painting to James and James sent it to his inventory so that no damage could be done to it, however, there was nothing more to be done here.
"Emma, get me out of here, I am so done for a while," James said and with that, a portal opened up in front of James. James stood up and then looked at the puddle of blood he had left behind him, he realised that he had taken a huge step forward, even better than Desmond had wanted him to.
It would be one of those rare moments when he could be completely proud of himself, it was all thanks to his hard work.
James had managed to kill one of the catacomb guardians who hadn't been killed in a long time.
This was but a small page at the beginning of his legend.
