Lucifer's Descendant System Chapter 293

"Good... Rather, great!" Michael stood up. "Now, us four can watch the Hyu family fight the semifinals while planning how to defeat them!" Michael's spirit renewed, everything fell back in place, including the healer's normal behavior.

But one person wasn't happy in the slightest, and that person was Noah.

'But I wanna know already the hell that skill does! Why can't I have one free second to take a look at it!' he yelled inwards, as he over and over tried to look to the middle of nowhere, where his status was open in his field of view, only to have Michael call him out for dozing off.

'Bearded warrior, where the hell are you when I need you to keep him at bay?!'

Being dragged along in the conversation for quite some time, by the time the door to this room opened the first time, the Hyu family's battle had already begun. "Hey, you guys good to go?" Michael asked as he saw the 6 blessed enter the room. Among them was the bearded warrior, who had a face that made everyone aware he was very pissed off.

Noah made good use of this distraction, as Michael welcomed them back, to finally take a look at his status and see what the heck was going on with his newly acquired skill.

Stamina: 26.1

Skills:

(Hell Flames Lv 04, 6.391/12,500 exp: A technique that consists in summoning the flames of hell itself. The flames of hell did not differ from normal flames, but after cleansing so many sins and so many sinners, they became the most powerful flame, having already burned the god of flames himself, making him beg Lucifer to put out those flames before he died.To increase the power of the flames of hell skill, the user must burn sins or sinners.

After absorbing the 'Asset Weaponization' skill, it's now possible to condensate flames into the shape of weapons and manipulate them in the same way as flames.

[Fireball] [Fire Dagger] [Fire Claws] [Ode to Joy] [Healing Flames])

(Hell Tunneling Lv 02, 1.494/1,500 exp: A technique that consists of opening a tunnel to hell and exiting somewhere else in a fraction of a second. The greater the distance, the more energy expended.

Pyakugan: After reaching Lv 02, the user learned to reduce the cost of each teleport, in addition to speed. As the user used the ability to move spatially so much, the user partially received a spatial perception even with eyes closed.)

(Hell's Contract Lv MAX: Only limited by the user's limitation, the skill can develop a contract that binds both parties to comply with everything required in the contract.

After absorbing the 'Blood Control' ability, it is now possible to force the target to accept contracts, as long as the user burns 100% of the target's blood.

For 30 minutes, the target will be required to follow all the commands defined in the contract. After 30 minutes, the target will die.]

(Hell's Summon Lv 02 1.466/1,200 exp: Skill used by great demons to summon armies of artificial inferior imps. Imps life is limited based on energy spent. The more energy, the longer the imp will last. Part of experience gained for killing monsters by imps, even without Lucifer's command, will go to Lucifer.

Lucifer once created an army of over 1,000,000 imps in the snap of his fingers because of the large amount of mana he possessed, in addition to the high skill level.

After ascending to level 02, the limit of imps the user can summon has doubled, although the strength of imps still remains the same.

Currently available imps: 8/30.)

(Devil Form Lv 01: 231/3,000 exp: Lucifer was born as an angel, but he needed to be the personification of evil to meet the requirements God had set for him to "Be the personification of evil." With the beautiful appearance that Lucifer had, no one would fear him, so thinking about it, Lucifer decided to create a form where he would be truly evil, a form that would not only invoke fear in people, but also increase Lucifer's strength greatly by consuming many flames of hell.

After absorbing the 'Asset Weaponization' skill, it's also possible to manifest some of Lucifer's tools for a short period.

The user will transform into Lucifer's "Personification of Evil" image and stats will be increased by 20%.)]

Noah was stunned as he read how overpowered the skill was. Not just the part where it made it easier for him to make weapons out of the flames, which he still hadn't completely mastered yet, but the part where he could conjure some of the weapons Lucifer himself used in hell. His xp had also been raised by a lot, more than even a C Rank fortress would.

'Was that woman this powerful?!' Noah thought, shocked, thanking Lucifer that his flames were able to burn her like dry straw. 'Still... How much of a sinner do you have to be to burn like that? Even the monsters burn a lot less than she did. It's almost like her body was bathed in sin.'

As he thought about her, another thing caught up his attention. The xp for levelling up [Hell's Summon] had already passed the threshold, but it had not yet levelled up. I need to check about this too, but also about the whole sin process for the flames, I don;t even know for sure what counts as a "sin", maybe there's something that is a sinful substance, and that's what helped that woman burn so well,' his mind spiralled out of the orderly though process once again, which made him shake his head in admonishment, 'I better stop thinking about her so much. There's a fight I need to win.' Interrupting his thought process, Noah looked around to see most of the group had already returned, only three people were still missing, but before he even had a chance to fully look around, a sweet female voice called him from up close.

"Welcome back to the real world," she said, almost whispering, and making his heart skip a beat, even though his face remained unchanged.

"Ah, so it was you," he said, exhaling. "You scared me."

"I didn't look like you were scared," she said, averting her gaze. It surprised Noah that she was this daring, the healer would always talk to him, but never be this straightforward. It was almost like something in the way she saw him had changed out of a sudden. 'Either way, I need to thank you,' she said, touching his hand.

"What for? I don't think I've done anything for you," Noah was troubled. He didn't expect anything from her, rather, he didn;t even recall her name.

"This last battle, I realized how much you make my job easier. You have been protecting us all since the beginning, and nobody even said a word to you about it. Especially me... I should've realized sooner, but thank you nonetheless. Last battle I remembered what fighting was before you joined, and how much you changed everything for us. So, please, stay with us." Her words were the first in quite a long time to shake his heart, other than Lilith, which he didn't really understand why made him feel so strange.

"I..." he started speaking, but stopped to think, changing his words mid-way. "You're welcome. Like I said, while I can't promisse I'll always be here, so long as I am, you can trust me to help you whenever you need," he said with a light heart. And for the first time in front of her, a small smile formed on his lips, making her eyes go wide for a split second.

"So you are also able to make that kind of face," she muttered. Noah heard a bit of the sentence, but didn't quite understand the meaning behind it, but he did understand the meaning of her smile and reddened cheeks.

"The lovebirds over there, I think you should take a look at this here," Michael's voice cracked their little world and brought them back to the atmosphere of the room, and it was a bit dark. Noah and the healer looked around, to see a gruesome fight on the screen. The woman who caught Noah's attention earlier was lying on the ground, motionless. Near her, three people of the other team were also lying down, but they were completely unconsciouss. By the looks of it, those were the enemy healer, a scout, and a mage, the later probably entrusted with protecting the first. It was clear she'd taken all of them out alone, and collapsed from exhaustion. But the main battle... It wasn't happening.

The mages from the Hyu family were absentmindedly bombarding the other side's backline, which was already reduced to a pair of pleople, while the warriors were chatting idly while sitting down in front of them.

Two people of the Hyu family were singlehandedly dominating the fight against over more than half of the other family, including its leader. Though Michael, Noah and the rest had considered them weak, they were still C Rank Blessed, but what they were seing was the image of those blessed being mercilessly cut down one by one by those two people. "To think they would be this powerful... That's at least Rank B Peak blessed," Noah said after a single second.

"They are not like those we fought. It wouldn't surprise me if those two were nearing a promotion to A Rank. Those assholes," the bearded warrior clenched his fists.

"I can probably deal with them."
