Chapter 226 (2/2)
Stomping up, Joseph kicked Trull's head into the air, snapping it back for a full flip . He activated his eyes to be stronger, but Chuck grew his claws longer, and stabbed his eyes out .
There was a moment that Joseph allowed him to scream, before swinging from low to high . Trull was nothing more than a solid black human form, so when the staff connected, Joseph hoped he would react the same way a human would . Sure enough, Trull crumpled into a ball, leaking a rainbow of colors from where his eyes used to be, as his pelvis was completely crushed .
Glancing at his staff, Joseph frowned at the bent handle . He was sure he could fix it .
MAKING-REPAIR .
Better . G.o.ds were tough though, as his wounds began healing, even while he was unconscious .
”Hey Chuck, I'm thinking you could use an upgrade . ”
”What do you mean?”
Joseph delicately used Chuck's claws to rip Trull's eyes out, as they repaired themselves .
BODY CONTROL-NUMB .
”That feels funny,” muttered Chuck . ”Joseph, are you sure about this?”
”Not before, but now it's no problem . Remember Chuck, you have a lot of G.o.d in you . ”
”Alright . ”
Joseph gently pulled Chuck's eyes out, and put in Trull's . He was a lot more careful with Chuck, though .
HEAL .
”Wow, this will take some getting used to,” proclaimed Chuck .
”They are powered by his divinity . I don't need it, so you and the system can split it . ”
Trull seemed to be waking up, but it was too late . Chuck grabbed his head in both hands and held on .
NECROMANCY-STEAL .
Joseph didn't even bother to differentiate what he was stealing . He took it all . Trull started flopping around, like he was having a seizure, but Chuck didn't let go until Trull turned into a withered husk and died . Then, Chuck ripped his head off, as the husk turned into dust .
While it didn't leave anything, to make new items out of, the power went straight into Chuck at much greater efficiency . The system was considerate and only took a bit of the divinity . The last few drops went straight from Trull's soul to the system, as the system had more experience dealing with souls . It wouldn't do to let Chuck get possessed after all .
(CHUCK HAS BECOME A DEMIG.o.d OF DESTRUCTION . DEMIG.o.dS ARE EQUAL TO LESSER G.o.dS IN STRENGTH, BUT HAVE YET TO CREATE A DIVINE REALM AND ASCEND . )
”Nah, I'm good here,” said Chuck with a chuckle .
”Finish your popcorn, Stella?”
”Yeah, but I barely started on my nachos . ”
”Give me a bite then . ”
”Ok, here . ”
(I THINK I MAY HAVE GOTTEN THE BETTER DEAL THAN CHUCK, ON DIVINITY . DO YOU KNOW HOW MUCH YOUR PEOPLE ARE WORs.h.i.+PPING YOU RIGHT NOW? OH, AND SEVERAL G.o.dS JUST DID THE EQUIVALENT OF PEEING THEMSELVES . APPARENTLY, SUCKING THE DIVINITY OUT OF A G.o.d BY A MORTAL, HASN'T HAPPENED BEFORE . I'D GIVE YOU MORE t.i.tLES FOR IT, BUT THE BENEFITS OVERLAP INSTEAD OF STACKING . DIVINE BANE ALREADY TAKES CARE OF MOST OF THE OTHER t.i.tLE BENEFITS . )
”Alright . Now let's head to the world tree . If we don't run into any other issues, we should make it by tomorrow night . ”
”Finally,” exclaimed Stella in excitement .
(OH, AND ALL OF TRULL'S TRUE WORs.h.i.+PPERS, WERE JUST KILLED . I WANTED TO CHECK . CHUCK IS GOING TO NEED TO GET HIS OWN AWE AND FEAR FACTION GOING IF HE INTENDS TO USE THOSE EYES OF DESTRUCTION YOU JUST GAVE HIM . )
