Dancing on the golden ashes-Chapter 194: Demigod level

After rising to the Soul Deity level, I gained 500 more stat points, bringing my total to 2531. I’d gathered more points while slaying monsters over the past year, achieving quite a few milestones along the way. Strangely enough, after reaching level 100, I went through an unexpected evolution. All my skills transformed, and they were no longer counted by levels. The new system was different, as if I had stepped onto the same level as those beasts—demigod level. Each of my skills now had a new name: [Demigod level 1], almost as if I’d been reset. I wondered if this was intentional or if I was some kind of special case.

But well, it was what it was. I was a demigod now. Maybe at some point, I’d reach godhood, but it wouldn’t come after level 200—maybe 300, or even 1000. But the real question was, where would I find beasts at that level to push me further? Was there something missing from this world? Or had I just been advancing too fast?

All of that didn’t matter now. What stood out was that not only had my skills reset, but my stats now carried the [Demigod level 1] tag as well. But not all the stats were equal, much like the system I had used before, only this time, the starting point varied slightly.

[Level 100]

[Demigod Level 1 Ultra-speed mana regeneration (50,000 per second)]

My stats were now at a level I had never imagined. The difference between someone at level 10 and level 100 was like night and day. But it wasn’t just because of that. I had multiple amplifiers boosting my stats by a total of fifteen times, making me leaps and bounds stronger than an average level 100. However, the system message didn’t arrive until a month after my revival. My role had slowly been upgrading, and when I received the message, I felt my body undergo a transformation. The system finally revealed my new role: [Transcendent Death Eater]. Along with it, I gained a new skill: [Life]. There was no description or clear way to use it, and even now, I didn’t understand the skill. But it had to be something special, considering how my role had carried me through so many difficult fights.

I couldn’t dwell on it for too long, though. The monster in front of me was slowly stirring, and soon, it would most likely sense my presence. That would force me into a fight to the death. It felt troublesome. Why not just kill it easily with my overpowered skills?

"2531 points... Well, this will be interesting," I muttered to myself, thinking over my next move. "First, let’s spread it evenly... 316 for each, in total of 2528 points. That’ll leave me with 3 points. I’ll use them later. Hmmm... yeah, that looks good."

As I looked over my new stats, I couldn’t help but be a little intimidated, even by myself. What was even more terrifying was the realization that my stats weren’t that far off from the monster’s.

[Demigod Level 317 Galactical mana regeneration (3,170,000 per second)]

Each 100 levels had given me around one million points in total stats. Mana and regeneration were calculated in a weird way that I still couldn’t quite understand, it was too complex. But one thing was clear: the power surged through me. I felt as light as a feather, yet I knew that a single punch from me would be powerful enough to level a mountain. That’s how strong I had become. My scythe agreed with me, its presence so potent that it bent the light around it like a small black hole. It made me wonder: what would happen as I grew even stronger? Would it eventually have the power of an actual black hole?

GROWL

A loud growl echoed from the mountain ahead of me, and the ground beneath me shook. I was forced into the sky, flapping my wings and practically teleporting three kilometers into the air. The creature before me was so massive that, when it stood up, it easily reached seven kilometers in height.

"Just how the hell am I supposed to cut this thing in half? What a headache..." I muttered, staring at the towering beast. Its massive body didn’t seem possible to cut, but why not give it a try? Or maybe I should just leave... I have no energy...

I sighed deeply, my scythe glowing with multi-colored brilliance as I prepared myself for the next move.

"Chaos slash..." I whispered under my breath. Bending slightly, I gathered my energy and released it all at once. The air around me bent under my power, the world shaking in retaliation. The monster, noticing my power, began to shine in a golden light, making it appear like an immortal mountain.

My attack was so fast that it instantly reached one of the beast’s arms, which was at least several kilometers in diameter. The moment my power met it, a massive slash wound cut straight through the arm, leaving a kilometer-wide wound that allowed the light to shine through the monster.

RRROOOAAARRR!

An earthy, rocky roar echoed out—well, that’s the best way I could describe it. It was as if the ground itself was screaming in pain. But despite the pain I inflicted, I was still far from killing it.

"What a pain in the ass you are..."
