Skill Devouring Up to Floor 666 Episode 191
191. Skill Fusion
‘How many did I get through Skill Copy?’
When I opened the status window, dozens of skills were lined up in rows.
I didn’t need to count them one by one and checked Parasite.
▷Parasite(SSS)+10
―Effect: Plants parasitic organisms made of mana into targets (maximum 80). As long as the host doesn’t die or the parasitic organisms aren’t removed, you can permanently monitor the targets.
‘So it’s 80 now.’
It’s tremendous progress compared to before regression.
Back then, I had at most around 10 skills.
The skills acquired through Copy ranged from A-rank to SSS-rank in variety.
‘I need to select my main skills from these.’
Time Stop, Soul Strike, Time Acceleration, Soul Harvest, Causality Reversal, Parasite, Time Regression, Money Bundle Swing, Grip of the Dead, Gap of Balance, Death God’s Senses, and so on.
SSS-rank skills cannot be enhanced.
Since Skill Fusion only raises the skill’s rank.
Naturally, EX-rank Skill Copy is impossible too.
‘I should enhance SS-rank skills first.’
Blood Supply, which allows me to receive stat buffs using Pi Hyeok Jin.
King’s Army, which summons countless troops.
I decided to enhance these two skills first.
‘The ones I copied at Central Park today. I’ll use these as fusion materials.’
When I thought of Skill Fusion, a window appeared.
[Main Skill]
▶(Empty)
[Sub Skills]
▶(Empty)
It was a format for registering skills like a combination window.
‘I’ll set Blood Supply as the main skill and for sub skills…’
I tried putting up Scattering Blades, an A-rank skill I didn’t need.
When I tried to press the fusion button, it wouldn’t activate.
Instead.
[More sub skills are needed for Skill Fusion.]
This message appeared.
Then?
[Main Skill]
▶Blood Supply(SS)
[Sub Skills]
▶Scattering Blades(A)
▶Hatred(A)
▶Mana Wave(B)
▶Swift Steps(E)
▶Battle Fever(E)
▶Fervor(D)
▶Upward Strike(F)
▶Vitality(F)
▶Deflection(F)
…
…
I randomly put up A-rank and lower skills.
Until the activation button appeared.
‘How many do I need to put up?’
When the skills exceeded 15.
‘There it is.’
The button was activated.
I immediately touched it.
[Starting Skill Fusion.]
[Sub skills will be deleted as fusion materials.]
…
…
[Fusion completed.]
[Blood Supply’s rank has been enhanced from SS→SSS.]
I immediately checked the status window.
The unnecessary skills had decreased, and instead I could see that Blood Supply had been enhanced.
The same result as obtaining an SS-rank Skill Enhancement Orb.
‘As expected, with this I don’t need Skill Enhancement Orbs separately.’
To check how much it had improved, I called Pi Hyeok Jin from the Skull Jar.
“Did you call for me, Master?”
“Are you doing well? Show me your neck.”
“Yes. Here it is.”
I used the skill on Pi Hyeok Jin, who offered his neck to be bitten.
Crunch!
[Health is restored through the effect of Blood Supply.]
[All stats increase by 1,000% for 3 minutes due to buff effect.]
I could confirm that my stats had increased tenfold in an instant.
‘This is insane.’
Originally, before enhancement, the stat buff was only 25%.
But with the effect of my white magic stat exceeding 200,000, the buff’s ability had been amplified.
‘When I last checked, it was 500%.’
But now it had doubled from that.
The effect had increased upon rising to SSS rank.
‘If I can utilize Blood Supply, it’ll be tremendously helpful in combat.’
After putting Pi Hyeok Jin back in the Skull Jar, I happily began fusing the next skill.
[King’s Army has been enhanced from SS→SSS rank.]
After enhancing King’s Army, I still had skills remaining.
‘I still have quite a lot of A-rank and below skills left to use as materials?’
What should I enhance next?
‘I should enhance the invincibility skills first, right? You never know what might happen.’
[Cloud’s Protection has been enhanced from SS→SSS rank.]
[Power of Immortality has been enhanced from SS→SSS rank.]
[Blood Shield has been enhanced from SS→SSS rank.]
After enhancing the invincibility trinity set.
‘I still have skills left.’
A few A-rank skills and some unnecessary S-rank skills remained.
‘This time I should work on the support skills.’
[Flight has been enhanced from SS→SSS rank.]
[Camouflage has been enhanced from SS→SSS rank.]
[Breath of Regression has been enhanced from SS→SSS rank.]
[Mind Control has been enhanced from SS→SSS rank.]
[Dragon’s Rage has been enhanced from SS→SSS rank.]
[Spatial Movement has been enhanced from SS→SSS rank.]
[Wind, Move has been enhanced from SS→SSS rank.]
[Bite has been enhanced from SS→SSS rank.]
[Mana Shield has been enhanced from SS→SSS rank.]
Using S-rank skills as materials, the conditions were quickly met without needing to enhance many.
‘I don’t have many skills left now.’
I’m conflicted.
What should I do next?
‘Should I try enhancing this one last time?’
[Clear Mind Like Still Water has been enhanced from SS→SSS rank.]
A skill that had been quite effective in restoring memories from before regression.
I didn’t know how it would change when enhanced, so I wanted to see.
▷Clear Mind Like Still Water (SSS)
―Effect: Rapidly recovers mana just by closing your eyes. As an additional effect, memory improves.
‘Oh, now mana recovers even when I close my eyes?’
Originally, it had the effect of recovering mana when sitting cross-legged.
But during combat, fulfilling the cross-legged condition was tricky.
‘Now mana recovery will be possible even during battle.’
As a test, I closed my eyes and felt my mana becoming abundant.
‘Status window.’

The messy skill window had all been neatly organized into SSS-rank.
‘Good. I’ve become stronger than before.’
With this much power, I could easily sweep away mere administrators.
‘But I can’t be satisfied with just this.’
Getting stronger is good, but it’s still not enough.
‘I need to complete my weapon.’
The Lightning Spear I’ve been using until now is SS-rank.
Of course, even this is powerful, but I need a stronger weapon to prepare for any contingency.
‘I need to make an SSS-rank weapon.’
Looking at my status window, I noticed I had accumulated 100 million credits.
This should be enough to buy materials.
I used the Dimensional Orb to summon the specter.
“It’s been a while, Death God.”
[What did you call me for? Human?]
“Since this is the last time, I want to spend the credits I’ve saved up.”
[Credits? How much could you have saved… Huh!]
Luster, who confirmed the 100 million credits, opened his skull mouth and let out a hollow laugh.
[You’re probably the first human to accumulate this many credits.]
“Whatever, just open the shop window.”
I scrolled down and purchased the materials needed for weapon upgrades.
[You have purchased the item ‘Sacred Mithril’.]
[10,000,000 credits have been deducted.]
[You have purchased the item ‘World Tree Branch’.]
[25,000,000 credits have been deducted.]
[You have purchased the item ‘Primordial Essence’.]
[15,000,000 credits have been deducted.]
[You have purchased the item ‘Hardened Dimensional Core’.]
[10,000,000 credits have been deducted.]
I spent 60 million credits on materials alone.
I invested the remaining 40 million credits in buying equipment.
After spending all my credits.
“Now go.”
After dismissing the Death God, I opened the combination window and arranged the materials.
╔══ Combination Window ══╗
Sacred Mithril × 1
World Tree Branch × 1
Primordial Essence × 1
Hardened Dimensional Core × 1
Lightning Spear × 1
╚══════════╝
Finally, I placed the SS-rank Lightning Spear and pressed the button.
[Combination successful.]
[You have created ‘Divine Transformation God-Slaying Spear (SSS)’.]
[The acquired item has been stored in your inventory.]
[Divine Transformation God-Slaying Spear (SSS)]
―Category : Weapon
―Durability : Infinite
―Effect : Weapon Transformation, All Stats +100% increase
―Usage Restriction : Lee Tae Seong (Bound)
―Description : A spear said to be capable of killing gods. While it basically takes the form of a spear, it can freely change its form according to the user’s will.
‘Perfect.’
A spear I knew how to make but had never actually created.
The ultimate weapon that could transform in various ways like the Transformation Branch.
‘It’s fair to say I saved up credits all this time for this very purpose.’
I swung the spear around.
According to my will, the spear’s length extended freely.
‘I like it.’
Now the preparations were complete.
SSS-rank Skills and SSS-rank Weapon.
There was nothing left to fear.
‘Now, shall I go kill Amon.’
