[New Fate Achievement]

–          Bane of House Kurt – you have single handedly attacked House Kurt and its leaders, your action have left an impactful mark of fear on its people, you will earn +1 000 fate particles everyday for as long as House Kurt exists.

(A/N: from now on I’m factoring the heavens boon [×10 fate particles], directly into the number of particles earned, this also includes the current ‘Worldline Quests’, it will no longer be done as a separate calculation)

Lirian read his new fate achievement with satisfaction, although he felt like it was a pity that his plans involved destroying House Kurt, ‘Oh well, it should last for 24 days, so that’s an easy 24 000 fate particles for myself,’ he thought with a shrug.

Next up Lirian looked at the fate particle he earned from killing and defeating members of house Kurt.

For the ordinary soldiers, he gained absolutely nothing at all, they were beneath his life level so it would never so much as offer him an ounce of a fate particle.

In fact he lost a fair amount for killing that first wave of soldiers that didn’t even make a move against him, before he turned them into mush on the walls.

In total he killed twelve guards in that first wave, for attacking someone below his grade he lost 1000 fate particles for every kill, which amounted to (-12 000 fate particles).

However had they moved to attack him first, he wouldn’t have lost a single fate particle, it was why he allowed the second group of guards to throw their weapons at him, before attacking them.

The there were 23 novices who died to his attacks none of them were at the peak of their level so each of them afforded him 5000 fate particles for a total of (+115 000 fate particles)

If he didn’t have his boon he would have only earned 500 fate particles for every kill.

The fights against all the adepts were inconclusive, with the exception of Reyna, whom Lirian easily defeated, for defeating her he earned (+1 000 000) fate particles, if she was a peak adept that number would have doubled.

As for the battle against the three leaders, it ended in a tie, which amounted to no gains for him.

In total his battle gained him an addition 1 103 000 fate particles, Lirian looked at his new fate particle total.

Systems Fate Particles: 320 00

Hosts Fate Particles: 1 242 000

He quickly transferred particles to the system to make the two balance out.

Systems Fate Particles: 781 000

Hosts Fate Particles: 781 000

The system needed fate particles to be able keep a constant monitor of threats on Lirian’s life, and as long as it had an equal amount or more fate particles than the threats possessed against Lirian, it would be able to detect it and warn Lirian.

In general an adapt would hold as little as 100 000 fate particles, and with all the secrets that they learned and carried, that number would gradually increase.

And a knight who was from the next grade, would hold as little as 10 million fate particles, the fate particle were always constantly exchanged between people during their daily lives.

Even in simple discussions, small amounts of fate particles were constantly exchanged, for example, if a person won a debate they would earn themselves a few fate particles.

If the victory of that debate, made people’s minds shift to favour the thoughts of the winner it would earn them even more fate particles, and degree of the shift in persons thoughts would grant the winner even more particles.

For instance if a person started of with a neutral stance and started to lean towards the debate winners argument they would transfer some fate particles, but if someone who was against the debate winners idea at the beginning shifted it would grant the debate winner a lot of particles.

And finally, if people started to act upon the logic and argument of the winner, they would constantly feed that person fate particles, for as long as their argument or logic was the reason behind the action.

The more widespread the idea becomes the more fate particles are sent to that person, unfortunately most people were unable to access fate abilities, but that didn’t mean that collecting fate particles was useless for them.

As people gained more fate particles, their luck would increase, and could in turn grant them greater influence, it could help them discover breakthroughs at rapid speeds, hence allowing them to reach even greater heights, it was an endless cycle.

When people had a great amount of fate particles, that exceeded those around them by monstrous amounts, a phenomenon would occur, a phenomena that would make it seem as if the entire world was bending to their desires.

And heaven chosen such as Lirian had a similar effect on the world at all times, only that while granting him their favour the heavens would never allow him to get what he wanted without experiencing a trial first.

Lirian shifted past his fate particles and looked at the new lines that appeared under his godly constitution.

Godly Constitution: – your godly constitution is still in its slumber, most of the powers of the godly constitution are still unknown.

–          Limitless

–          Gods Charm

–          Gods Pride

–          Devour – your body has the innate ability to devour powers that it finds beneficial to your body and adds it to your arsenal (activation method unknown)

–          Poison resistance – your body has developed a powerful resistance that can be applied to all forms of poison. (must consume the poison to begin development of resistance, you are also immune to all first-grade poisons)

–          Snake Charmer – you are able to communicate with snakes and gain their cooperation if you ask for it.

Lirian read through the three new additions to his godly constitution, the devour ability did explain what his body was able to do, but it was still peculiar.

He felt his entire body undergo a change in a few short seconds when his body devoured the snake gods essence.

It was unbelievable that his body was able to undergo such a change in such a short time, usually to perform a gene mutation you had to undergo decades of trials and experiments to make sure that the mutagen would work without causing any bad side effects.

It was a lengthy process, yet his body had done it instantaneously with no crippling side effects that Lirian could feel, Lirian couldn’t help but find it incredible.

There was one other thing that Lirian noticed and that was that the main power he would have received from becoming an apostle of Akasha would have granted him Immunity to all poisons, yet he only got Poison Resistance.

He had to attest it to the fact that the godly essence of Akasha was in its dormant state when it was consumed.

But the good thing was that the resistance would grow stronger every time he reached a breakthrough.

‘I wonder if I can make my body devour another godly essence,’ Lirian thought and started to channel his energy into the diagram on his chest, but the snake remained still after several attempts.

‘Maybe it will only wake up if I’m on the verge of dying without anyway out,’ Lirian reasoned, he was in such a situation when the serpent started to act, it seemed that it was something else for him to study.

He knew that his body was in it’s slumbering state, and odds were that his bodies full powers would only fully awaken once he became a god, there was a good chance that he would never be able to use the devour ability again until he became a god, but that didn’t mean he wasn’t going to try to activate it.
