NOVEL NEXT Chapter 52 Death’s Embrace Final
Zero awoke and checked his status with a smile. Fusing a piece of Death's body with his own had the effect that he desired. He thought of the idea when he created Yoko although he used his powers to consume the same souls he only received the skill of the creature. Yoko on the other hand gained powerful skills that the original creature lacked so Zero wondered if the body had something to do with it.
Now that he knew that fusing a part of the creature with his own body allowed him to gain skills he would do so when he got the chance. He planned to do the same for Yoko and Valna when they evolved. They would need to use every opportunity to get stronger before God arrives if they wanted to survive.
Now that he was done checking his stats Zero produced a mirror in front of him to check his looks. The previous changes were minor but by combining a piece of Death with himself he was sure there would be a change. He saw in the mirror a young man who had straight long white hair that flowed to his knees and had smooth white skin. His left eye was luminous amber eyes so light that if shown during the day it would be mistaken as golden and his right eye was pitch black like that of an abyss. He still looked to be about 17 or 18 years old.
The only real change was that his right color had changed and his skin no longer was pale like that of a vampire. His previous skin had been pale and cold to the touch but now it looked only slightly paler than a normal human's. He felt that his wings might have changed so he released them and found that they were no longer bat-like but black feathered wings like those of a fallen angel.
Having confirmed what he needed to Zero teleported back to the stadium and found Yoko and Valna hard at work training. He walked towards Nova who was sitting and watching the fight and asked "Who's winning?"
"Auntie Valna is winning but Mama is strong too." answered Nova
"Well then it's time for them to get even stronger." said Zero as he picked up Nova and flew towards the 2 women fighting in the air.
When they saw Zero and Nova they stopped their sparring session and flew towards them. When they saw his wing they knew that his evolution had gone well.
"So you're a valkyrie like us now?" asked Valna
"No I'm more of a Reaper who can drink blood rather than a valkyrie." answered Zero
"Well, you definitely have gotten stronger than before. I don't think we could beat even if we teamed up." said Yoko
"Well, I don't think you could have even before I changed." retorted Zero
"Is papa strong?" asked Nova
"Yup I've never lost a fight." said Zero with a smirk
"Probably because you don't fight anything you don't think you can win against." retorted Valna
"Well yes, that's just common sense. I don't fight anything stronger than me if I have a choice." said Zero
"So you've fought something stronger than yourself?" asked Yoko
"Right, I forgot to explain that I will be using Death's soul and body to make you 2 stronger." explained Zero
The news shocked both Valna and Yoko as both were well aware of the power that Death wielded. Neither one felt that they could have defeated Death if they fought him.
"Well enough of that let's land and get started shall we." said Zero
After landing on the ground Zero placed Nova on the ground and turned to face Yoko and Valna. Using his mental manipulation he placed an idea to sleep in their heads and they fell to the ground. After telling Nova not to move from that spot he placed Yoko and Valna 30 feet and removed their souls. With a wave of his hand, a piece of Death's body and the 2 equally sized souls appeared next to the 2 women.
Zero then proceeded to order the system to fuse the souls and bodies while optimizing them as it did with him.

Skill Explanation
Necroscience: The enhanced version of Death Sense. The user knows almost everything about death or anything that is related to the dead, including everyone who is dead, how they died, everything about their death, and everything they went through. The user knows the time and method of how everyone is going to die and all the ways and reasons on how anything can and is supposed to die. The user can see and generally detect the lifespan of themselves or others whether by perceiving the remaining lifespan and date of their death.
Eternal rest inducement: The user can grant a blissful and resting death to anyone or anything that is stuck being alive, such as reanimated corpses and users of Cursed Resurrection, but without actually having to kill them. This can bypass powers that force the target to stay alive unnaturally and also ensure the target affected can stay dead by granting them peace of mind in the afterlife.
Lesser Reaper lordship: The user has absolute control over death and all things dead, allowing them to have limitless control over everyone and everything that is dead, and manipulate all things related to death. The user also has limited control of lesser reapers.
Adaptive development: The user possesses a rapid development rate, allowing them to permanently push back their limits within minutes when continuously reaching them, be they physical, mental, or supernatural. It makes them particularly fearsome opponents both in the short and long term, as they improve fast enough to surpass their opponents during battle. Their numerous improvements endlessly accumulate during their lifetime. However, their growth rate tends to gradually slow down due to their challenge-based nature as their limits become increasingly harder to reach the stronger they become.
Adaptive learning: Users can gather and instantly understand any form of knowledge and adapt the knowledge and skills to suit their needs. Including learning a new talent and skill and adapting a way to use it such as acquiring a talent that allows one to read quickly and changing it to allow one to read quickly for several different books and subjects at the same time, and more. Rather than simply being limited to powers, users can apply this to all forms of knowledge powers, magic, intuition, language, writing, reading, and body control. Users of this can learn and adapt any knowledge for their own needs and personal condition.
Death empowerment: Users become stronger, faster, more durable, etc. by the deaths of others, possibly unlocking abilities related to the affinity and enhancing the existing powers. Some users may be able to draw sustenance from the dying or even slow or stop aging.
Conversion Resurrection: Users can raise the dead into a different type of creature (demons, vampires, werewolves, humans). While the revived creatures retain most of their original traits and personality, they also undergo a physical and mental transformation, gaining additional abilities and traits relative to their new nature, as well as a sire bond to the user.
