There was a pulse of mark implanting itself onto Sylas' forehead and for the second time in his life, he experienced a suffocation of his stats.
But for some reason...
He was shockingly calm, so much so that judging from his expression, one would never guess that such a thing had happened at all.
At that moment, Sylas' body began to change once again. The bone armor that coated him due to his fusion with the Bone-Tailed Lizard changed and morphed, becoming more crystalline.
A cascade of reflective gems seemed to replace the armor.
The sharp bone tail became crystal as well, and Sylas' yellowed, slit eyes changed, reflecting sky blues, bright pinks, and shimmering amethyst.
Sylas' aura changed completely as he combined the Glasirith and the Bone-Tailed Lizard into
one.
At that same moment, he activated his Beast Totem and Hibernation Halo.
A pair of golden eyes and a ring of gold rippled outward with Sylas at the center. At a speed visible to the naked eye, the bleeding wound on his neck began to close.
The pressure on his mind increased, but the focus in Sylas' eyes was absolutely unprecedented.
When he chose his three Legendary Paths, he hadn't just chosen the Paths that sounded the sweetest. He had specifically chosen them so that they could synergize.
As the Paths grew in Level, the benefits of this only became more and more obvious.
Were-for-the-Invincible and One Kind For Me played off of one another.
Because Sylas was fused with two beasts at once now and not just one, he received not just one +300% boost from his Beast Totem, but two, one for each of his Contracts. In an instant, not only did he claw back his lost stats, even with the Level o status of these two Contracts, he gained on average 500 stat points from each after gaining half of their stats.
But this was still just the start.
Not only did he gain a +1000 on average to all of his stats, but Hibernation Halo also applied two times over as it targeted both of the Contracts in his body right now.
This meant that whether it was Sylas' injuries, his Aether, or his mental fatigue, they were recovering at over +26 000% right this moment instead of the around +13 000% it should have been.
Even with this recovery pace, having so many abilities active on top of two Comprehensions was still draining Sylas' Wisdom and Will faster than they could recover.
But, what it did allow him to do was slow it to almost a crawl.
If he could hold on, he could end this battle.
And thanks to the Glasirith, he could do exactly that.
[Glass Edge (F-) (Gene Lineage Form)]
[Anti-Aether Blade. Negate all Aether that comes into contact with Glass Edge within 10 F- Grade Levels.]
[Limit: 30 Foundations]
Sylas held out a hand and half a dozen crystalline kunai appeared to his side. His palm faced Vaekra and her arrows while his second hand raised the Dragon Bone Spear, aiming toward Kyreth.
Glass Aether surged through the air as a ripple sent out a silent wave from Sylas' body. A shimmering crown appeared above his head, and at that moment, even to Sylas' surprise, the Curse seal on his forehead shattered to pieces.
Sylas' stats soared as a lance of Glass took shape, hovering before the tip of the Dragon Bone Spear.
SHIIING! SHIIING! SHIIIING!
The howl of blades filled the skies as both Dogons felt their hearts constrict.
Vaekra unleashed a volley of arrows, but Sylas' kuani moved at the same time, slicing through the air with a whistling cadence.
CHI! CHI! CHI! CHI! CHI! CHI!
The kunai and arrows met in the air, but the latter found themselves shattering on contact along with the Glass kunai.
The Aether that wrapped them was sliced to pieces.
If every arrow was a Treasure, the cost of being an archer would be far too high. Unfortunately for Vaekra, because of this fact of life, her arrows were sturdy, but not enough to survive for long without the protection of her Aether Skills.
She could only watch as her arrows were rendered useless, falling to the lava below in pieces, and at that very instant, a pulse of light came from the lance.
Black Runes hovered out of Sylas' Scorpion Warlord tail, fusing into the lance.
Kyreth's face fell, his body shaking violently beneath the pressure. But for some reason, after his Curse on Sylas' body shattered, he found himself completely frozen in place.
To his horror, he realized too late that the Bone-Tailed Lizard's poison had already entered his body, etching itself into his bone.
