Heaven's Greatest Professor

[Please choose one of these boons: Might | Heaviness | Invulnerability]

"What the hell is this?!" He cursed. Thinking quickly, he chose invulnerability.

[Altering your physique for the Boon of Invulnerability]

"What the heck do you mean by altering?" Warden didn't wait for an answer as an overwhelming pain assaulted him instantly. He let out a scream, as though his body was breaking through from the inside. His heart pounded as the altering process went on. Even moving a muscle became an impossibly difficult task.

The lizards pounced on him, as he couldn't even bring himself to swing the weapon at them. Even if he managed to kill one, there were plenty more. Warden focused his Will on the Void Shroud, as only the defence it provided could save him now.

Perhaps choosing the option of invulnerability was not the right decision.

On top of everything, there are still dozens of these lizards on him, punching him, though the shroud obstructed their invasion. Unfortunately, Warden didn't have an endless source of energy. He would run out of energy soon enough with how relentless the drakes were to break through the force-field.

Gritting his teeth, Warden opened the gate to his subspace in front of him as large as he could. More than half a dozen creatures that were on him entered it instantly. Considering that Drakes were a cursed creature, they would probably survive inside the subspace, but it also relieved the pressure from him.

The gate to his subspace closed after a certain number of dungeon creatures entered. If he was in his right mind, he would have guessed the space had met the highest number it could contain for the time being. It probably runs on the principle of how a dungeon works, so putting more creatures than it could handle would only unstable it built. Who knew what would happen if the subspace exploded?

Warden would only remain as the sap of mushed blood and flesh, as his body would likely implode, unable to handle the tearing.

"Warden!" he heard the scream of Jason, though he could not see him, with too many of the Drakes on him. "What are you doing? You cannot win this."

"I am trying," Warden muttered with gritted teeth.

[The void prison realm is altering the Warden's Boon of Physique.]

[Error! Insufficient energy! Please provide rich sourced energy to...]

[The Void Prison Realm sourcing the energies of the subspace to channel in the Warden's Physique. The process might decrease the shell integrity below optimal. The Warden is warned.]

A soul-tearing pain soared through his left palm and spread throughout his body. His core, which was revolving, now expanded within him, flowing its branches throughout his body as the void energy surged through him like a flood.

An utterly scary amount of void energy burst out of him, hurtling down all the creatures on him, trying to bite through his void shroud. Warden was finally free from the grasp of the Drakes, but he was powerless to even move an inch. The process was still ongoing within his body, rendering all his muscles as though they were made out of liquid.

Warden fought with all his might to keep his consciousness in check. Then a light flashed in his consciousness, providing the only consolation against the all-consuming agony.

Warden coughed out blood as the power of Radiance began to quell the wave of will going through him. It was just too much for the little far of the Radiance to come down. However, it did manage to provide the break Warden so needed.

Then he heard the ground quake on the arrival of a huge boulders-like figure. Not one, two, but four ... thankfully, only one of them looked like the Drake matriarch, not that the other three did not look terrifying enough. They were all heavily built to dash at them. They crept into the party after dozens of their offspring paid the price of facing them

He sat upright, wiping the blood from his face. Warden was thoroughly powerless to face this.

The drake matriarch opened its mouth, and raw energy twisted around as fire sparked into manifestation...

Warden groaned, trying to access the subspace to open another portal to save himself from this atrocity. The void energy blinked in front of him. But instead of a portal, it surrounded around him in a vortex of energy.

Thankfully, Jason was there. Jason fought with the oncoming drakes, no further than 2 meters away. He dealt with them quickly and came to Warden's rescue after taking care of the other two. Nina had already run off, the healer on his command.

He dropped just before the fire breath could hit Warden. A white shield manifested in his arm as he took on the full brunt of the blow effortlessly. He not only took the blow, but it appeared his ability let him reflect the attack to the owner as soon as the flame burst towards the matriarch and her superior minions, buying them some time.

"Warden, are you alright?'' He called, pulling Warden up. "Why does this feel like you are dying? Wait, are you going through your first alteration now?''

"Can't talk now," Warden rasped, his voice soft yet husky. "Let us get out of here."

Warden could barely walk straight as Jason had to carry him, just like he did with the healer at the time. But as they went back, he threw a few beads into the air, which burst to release an impenetrable fog of black smoke that obscured the vision of all the lizards in the vicinity.

Jason did not stop his run; he did not know where the other two had gone but only stopped after carrying Warden for half an hour.

In the meantime, Warden already settled his mind into meditation, channelling the chaos that had been reigning within him to subside. Thankfully, it subsided as Jason brought him to safety.

[Congratulations! You have attained the Void Vanquishing Physique.]

[You have received...]

There was more information, but Warden barely managed to read that before he fell unconscious.
