The Protagonist’s Sister Is Actually The Strongest [An Action-Packed LitRPG Transmigration and Progression Fantasy]

Chapter 184: Creating A Main Specialization

-----

What followed that simple, yet funny-sounding message were a couple more messages, each one stranger than the previous one. But I think they settled down after shouting Error ten times more.

[A {Fragment of Divinity} within you that is connected to the Skill used for the Specialization has begun to grow unstable.]

[The {Ego} within it is rapidly growing restless…]

[The {Divine Ego Fragment: Bastet} does not like what you’re doing.]

Wait what? What’s going on?

[Suppressing Ego…]

[Success]

Ah, phew…

[Restructuration and Recreation of combined Paths partially successful.]

[Due to the authorization of the System Administrator, the two Paths have been combined into the [Path of the Holy Herculean Necromancer Legend]!]

[The [Half-Beast Demonic Transformation (A): Lv8] Skill has been changed into your Main Specialization: [Legendary Herculean Holy Necromancer (S)]!]

[Your Main Specialization will now continue to affect the Skills and Privileges you learn from now on and might even affect Skill Fusions, Privilege Fusions, and so on.]

[Specializations have their own ways to continue growing stronger over time. But they lose the ability to level up like normal Skills.]

[You may choose a Secondary Specialization after reaching the Second Awakening, and whenever you have the necessary item.]

“Wow, is it done? That was a bit annoying.” I sighed. “Why even let me do that if there would be so many errors?”

Whoever this System Administrator is, they surely didn’t make the system this flexible. I assume that they were trying to help me, and I appreciate it. But perhaps they should first continue fixing their system. I am now a bit afraid that more weird errors could occur.

And this thing is inside my damn soul too! Won’t it affect my soul if it has too many errors? Although… Maybe that’s for the better too? If the System glitches a lot, like in video games, I could probably exploit it somehow.

Well, for now, I should be satisfied with what I have here. So, in summary, I’ve replaced my furry transformation with whatever this is. And I am hoping it’s the good stuff. I can already feel the power of my connection with the Nameless Axe-Sword strengthening.

And above all, the essence of Yin and Yang cycling across my body with every breath has been further strengthened too! I think this Specialization is perfect for my continuous growth.

Anyway, let’s see what this specialization is all about, and then let’s do some experiments. I’m getting a bit too tired of skill mumbo-jumbo. The best way to learn what your abilities do is through training and real-life battles, so that’s what I’ll dedicate myself to doing next.

{Main Specialization}: [Legendary Herculean Holy Necromancer (S)]

A Combined Path that merges the Legacy of Hercules with the prowess of the mysterious and rare Holy Necromancer.

Your body has begun to inherit the legendary legacy of Hercules, as you possess his Nameless weapon, your body is beginning to change. Your muscles will begin to rapidly develop as you constantly practice extreme physical exercise.

By absorbing the essence of Life and Death from targets, you can accumulate Holy Nether Essence, which can be used to further upgrade the Main Specialization Effects and Abilities and Summon Holy Herculean Undead to aid you in battle.

You can also further infuse Holy Nether Essence into your body to enhance the speed at which your body develops and evolves to become stronger and more muscular. Muscles are everything.

Available Holy Nether Essence: 0

Until Next Rank Up: 0/1.000.000

Passive Effects:

You can summon Holy Herculean Undead by using Holy Nether Essence and available materials. Holy Herculean Undead can be either created as temporary allies or made into permanent soul-bound allies.

Temporary Holy Herculean Undead will be strong from the get-go but disappear after some time, using all the resources that made them. Soul-bound Holy Herculean Undead will remain at your side permanently through a Soul Pact, but they’re much weaker and require training and materials to become stronger.

Soul Bound Holy Herculean Undead Slots: 0/1

By utilizing Ki, Mana, and Holy Nether Essence, you can summon the {Graveyard of Fallen Legends} to unleash a Domain of 50 meters around you, which will boost All Physical Stats of your Holy Herculean Undead by 150%, Decrease their Damage Taken by 30%, and Increase their Physical Damage Dealt by 50%.

You can also combine with your Soul-Bound Holy Herculean Undead and become the {Legendary Holy Death Herculean Princess} by sharing all their Stats for 10 Minutes. Duration: 1 Hour. Cooldown: 12 Hours.

This is so freaking long.

But amazing!

It is just so cool!

I want to try this out right away! And what the heck are the Holy Herculean Undead? Are they like beefy zombies and skeletons? The sole idea makes me want to laugh out loud, but they sound pretty damn tough.

All those passive effects sound the best, though! With this, I can easily restore my exhaustion using just Mana, and I can even cast spells using Ki! I never knew that could be a thing. And it will come out exceedingly well in Murim Worlds or Murim Dungeons.

Sepa and Gram saw the specialization after I inspected it completely, and all three of them seemed shocked by how big the information was. It included a lot of bonuses and abilities.

“Y-You combined two paths together; that’s insane.” Sepa swallowed saliva. “And to be honest, I’ve never seen such a bizarre specialization before. What the hell is this thing? My Main Specialization was called {Egyptian Insect Goddess}, and I thought that was amazing already!”

[“I don’t know much myself, but I do remember that my wielder, Sigurd, had the powerful specialization of {Legendary Dragon Slayer}! It even allowed him to absorb and assimilate dragon bloodlines, and dragon hearts… But this is really weird.”]

“That one still sounds kind of broken… Ah, I guess mine is not that special after you said that.” I laughed a bit. “I shouldn’t let my power get to my head. There’s always someone out there who's even more monstrously strong.”

“Come on, have some more self-respect, Anna. You’re very strong.” Sepa nodded. “But you need to get stronger! Now, let’s experiment with your abilities and stuff!”

“I would love to, but I am really tired, so I’m going to nap and then eat dinner and sleep again. Let’s try tomorrow or past tomorrow.” I yawned. “Goodnight…”

Sepa and Gram were left speechless as I decided to just sleep for now. I want to also try my abilities, but that’ll only get me more tired, so let’s nap.

It has been two days since then, and we were at the weekend by now. I had dedicated the two previous days to cultivating and resting so my body could slowly grow accustomed to all the power I had gained from my new Skills and the Specialization.

On the two days, I also managed to learn how absorbing Holy Nether Essence worked and tried out my first temporary Holy Herculean Undead. And well, they were quite something.

“Alright, so I just need to attack you?” Baihe raised an eyebrow as she glanced at me with a bit of disbelief. She was wearing her sport clothes and was wielding a spear made of frost in her right hand.

“Yep, please attack me until the skill triggers.” I nodded. “And please… Don’t get scared when something happens, okay? I will only change temporarily.”

“A-Alright… I trust you, Anna.” Baihe nodded. “This hurts me more than it would ever hurt you.”

In a flash, she disappeared from where she was and appeared right above me, her spear swiftly unleashing a barrage of icy and piercing attacks, which I took head-on, only protecting my head and chest with my arms.

CRASH! CRASH! CRASH!

Somehow, her attacks were only able to slightly pierce my skin. My muscles were so tough that they worked as natural armor. The damage reduction of my new specialization must be at work. Of course, Baihe was a magician, not a fighter, so her physical blows wouldn’t compare to those of true fighters such as Kevin, for example. And that was the very reason why I asked her specifically to help me train my skills and abilities.

“Is it working?” She asked with a worried expression, her barrage of attacks not stopping.

“Almost there…!” I said, keeping a close look at my Health Points.

My arms were already covered in a big layer of ice, but I felt overall fine. I patiently waited until the numbers went down to the point I wanted.

[Your Health has reached below 80%.]

[The [Unborn Demonic Cocoon (SS)] Effects can now be activated.]

[Do you wish to toggle off or on the transformation sequence of this Skill?]

[Yes] [No]

So I can choose! Nice. Let’s press [No] for now.

[The [Unborn Demonic Cocoon (SS)] has activated.]

[You are undergoing a Demonic Transformation!]

FLASH!

My body was suddenly encompassed completely by a thick veil of demonic energy, which enclosed me inside a demonic cocoon. Baihe stepped back in surprise. It didn’t take a second before the cocoon fully formed, and then another for it to slowly dissipate into particles of darkness.

And as the cocoon disappeared, I felt my entire body much differently than before. I think I was much taller. My skin became pitch black and slightly glossy. There were clouds of darkness encompassing me completely. And my fingers were, at least three times as long. I even gained a long black tail, and whatever was covering my face felt like some sort of mask, but made out of my own bone.

“Uuhhh… A-Anna?” Baihe felt slightly afraid as she saw me emerge.

"Yeah, it’s me.” I nodded. “Don’t worry, I’m in total control of... Woah!”

I ended up falling into my own face; balancing around with this body was much harder than I imagined. Especially because I became at least three times as tall!

[You have transformed into the [Abyssal Hermit of Insecurity]: Increases Dexterity, Agility, and Wisdom by +200%. All your attacks have a fixed 50% chance of failing to hit a foe, but a 100% chance of a Critical Hit that multiplies damage by x3. Any successful hit has a 30% chance to inflict [Insecure Thoughts] on any foe. Duration: 15 Minutes.]

“I only have fifteen minutes for this…” I said. “Alright, Dan Baihe, are you wearing the status effect immunity bangle?”

“Yes, it’s here!” She nodded. “Hilda was really nice for making it for us!”

“She was, wasn’t she?” I giggled. “She even gave us a nice discount. Alright, now let’s start. I’ll attack you, and you just try to evade and fight back in a normal sparring session. Don’t be too scared of me; I’ll be back in 15 minutes.”

“Okay, gotcha.” Baihe nodded with a smile on her lips. Her eyes were glowing bright blue.

We both closed the distance between each other in a split second. I swung my giant claws against Baihe as the clouds of shadows surrounding me shifted, making me unexpectedly fast.

CLAAASH!

My claws clashed against her spear, but they slipped through, and I ended up hitting the floor as I lost balance. It was very embarrassing! Is this the 50% chance of missing? It sucks! At least it doesn’t seem affected by the Luck stat, so it can’t be worse.

“Hyaaah!”

Baihe was mercilessly attacking my back while I fell. I felt a slight piercing sensation on my back, but the shadows moving around my body easily deflected some of the damage. Or, more like, made me “evade” it.

I used the opportunity to swiftly run behind her, my claws harnessing my Demonic Energy, the only energy I could use in this form, and I swiftly unleashed a barrage of slashes against her. A storm of aura attacks made of demonic darkness bombarded Dan Baihe with several small explosions.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

“Uuuggh… My head! W-What the…?!”

She was quickly affected by the [Insecure Thoughts] Status Effect, as she started to feel confused and unable to focus.

“Can I even do this? Ugh, t-this is- Ah!”

FLASH!

However, her bangle activated, healing her from the status effect. It had a small delay, but it can heal you from a status effect up to ten times a day automatically. It uses a bit of Durability with each activation, but that’s alright.

“Hey, don’t get distracted now!”

I swiftly reached her, trying to kick her away, but she evaded both of my kicks and then unleashed a flurry of powerful blows, followed by a storm of icicles.
