Hero of Darkness

744 sudden Upgrade

The following day, Legolas was running through some documents while going through a tally of records regarding their income and expenditures along with all the new tiers of mercenaries they had rearranged after hiring thousands of new employees recently. 

With each passing day, he had to do more work inside the office than out in the field. Thankfully, he had 5 more doppelgangers after his rank up to 3rd stage saint who worked inside the Dimensional Domain. Thus, his workload was greatly reduced compared to his beginning days. 

But right when he was completely focused… 

"Master! Pull me inside your domain!" suddenly, Ronin in his Scorpion persona appeared out of nowhere and urged Kahn. 

"What happened?" asked Kahn. 

"No time to explain! Just do it!" 

Kahn didn't spare another moment and pulled Ronin inside his domain at a particular region of his domain which was now 30 kilometers in total range. 

Right at this moment… 

[The subordinate Ronin is making a breakthrough.] informed the system. 

BOOM!! 

A massive and chaotic burst of green and black aura erupted and Kahn was thrown a kilometer away just from the shockwaves. 

Thankfully, his domain was like a separate pocket dimension that didn't exist inside or affected the real world, otherwise this eruption of world energy would've destroyed their entire building like an atomic bomb. 

Kahn adjusted his footing after deactivating the Darkness Barrier he had used to protect himself at the last instant and saw the aftermath. 

"Arrrghhhh!!" screamed Ronin in pain as if he was undergoing some sort of torture. 

[Congratulations to the host. The subordinate Ronin has leveled up and become a being comparable to a 2nd stage saint.] reported the system in its usual lifeless voice. 

However… this wasn't the end of it. 

Visible ripples and waves of white and golden aura suddenly started exuding out of Ronin's body and he transformed into his Thanatos form. 

This was Ronin's true legendary rank form that he had only used once in a battle so far. 

He had only one red eye at the center of his head while two 10 meters long blades as his forearms. There were four blue extensions coming out of his back while the waist had a 50 meter long tail. His entire body was covered in white and red exoskeleton armor and his entire figure was 150 meters tall. 

But in the following moments, his aura started becoming denser and more oppressive even to Kahn as Ronin was undergoing a transmutation and his body was reforming at a visible rate. 

Soon, his height rose by an additional 100 meters and the blade forearms were covered under golden flesh as they turned into proper arms this time. 

The red eye disappeared from his face but then reappeared at the center of his chest. 

Many golden vine-like extensions came out of his back along with 4 long horns on his head and soon, his white and red exoskeleton armor turned into a combination of white and golden. 

The transformation finally stopped and Kahn walked closer to him. 

[Master, stop!] warned Ronin despite his sorry state. 

BOOM!! 

Another massive explosion erupted and sent Kahn flying again. This time, the intensity was 5 times stronger and covered 5 kilometers of radius inside the dimensional domain. 

"Ah… I'm going to die soon." spoke Kahn with his haggard and charred face as black fumes appeared in the perimeter. 

This time… Ronin's aura had completely changed from Green and Black to Golden and White as Ronin himself had transformed into a completely new being. 

[Congratulations to the host. General Ronin has ranked up to Mythical Rank.] reported the system out of the blue. 

"What the bloody hell?" spoke Kahn with a befuddled voice. 

"Show me his details, quickly!"

The possessed body cannot be of a higher rank saint or a monster than general Ronin.] reported the system. 

"Wait what?! How did he suddenly break through to Mythical Rank?" asked Kahn, his eyes widened in disbelief. 

"And how can he use that Soul Transfer skill when he doesn't have a soul?" he questioned again, the doubt in his mind being conspicuous. 

Just then, the system sent another warning that completely shocked Kahn. 

[Subordinate Ronin now has a Pseudo-Soul.]
