Chapter 478: Discoveries
He can technically Split his Abilities into different branches through his current Control ability, mixed with his Domain.
By this, he means that he can use one of several effects of the ability and not use it as if it were a single body, with no ability to split.
His Ice Power is an ability that is, by default, like this. It is not centralized. His Ice can freeze Reality, and for this, he offers different, essentially independent ways to do so.
For example, Frozen Time or his Frozen World. There is also the Ice Transformation and other abilities belonging to the Ice Power, but which can be used independently of the core ability.
But most of them don’t work that way.
When Matthew realized that he could split his abilities through Control, he immediately thought of his Unique Ability.
Although he could activate the ’vanish’ partially, thanks to the same ability, he could not do it as well as with his ice power. That’s why he tried to split it.
And he succeeded, at least partially.
That’s why he is now curious. ’Can I split the growth ability?’ If he had to answer himself, the answer would be that it would be impossible.
Because that ability has no divisions, the only divisions it has are the amount of power it will get.
So could he divide it?
He went into his mind. There was the usual stuff there, but he turned to that Skill Book in the middle of the place.
He needed to read his ability and analyze it to try to find out if he could split it. Maybe he could find a way to stop this one from continuing to grant him power. That way, he wouldn’t be limited to himself and could fight on the front lines of his own plan.
Only then would he become a better strategist.
Arriving here, he frowned.
The skill was not the same as before.
Two parts had disappeared, and the percentage had been halved.
He focused only on that percentage section because it was the most important.
The section between 10,000 and 20,000 Power was no longer there, nor was the section between 21,000 and 30,000. Now, according to skill, he was only granted power when he killed people with more than 31,000 Power.
And the percentage was no longer 8% but 4% for those types of people.
However, a new option was created that went from 51,000 to 99,999. This gave him 8% of Power. And everything above 100,000 Power now gave him that precious 10%.
’This means that I won’t be able to farm as easily. I guess that makes sense. This isn’t a video game, but... Killing people above 100,000 Power isn’t like it’s an easy task.’ He frowned.
’Let alone killing them, even finding them is already really difficult. Even in this City, it’s hard enough to find them. I’ll have to settle for that 4 and 8%.’
Though that wasn’t bad either.
But, when he scrolled down further, he found something shocking within the skill itself.
| Dietrich’s advice: Strengthening yourself through Growth-type Abilities is always wonderful. It makes you see the world the way it is not and creates false images about the difficulty of increasing your power. These types of skills should not be used for Progressive Strengthening.
If you have the Blood of Dietrich, you will understand this message and will be able to deactivate the ability at any time. Your journey continues with empire
| Remember, the Progressive Strengthening is the one that will allow you to cross the boundaries that bind you.
’A Dietrich’s Advice? Was it left for the time when the Heirs would cross the 100,000 of Power?’
’It says I can deactivate this thing...’ He lowered his gaze some more, expecting to find a button like the one on the Earth System, but was disappointed again.
He didn’t have a System.
’Tsk, that would make it more convenient.’ He sighed. He already knew how to do it.
Like everything else in this world: with the mind.
So, he closed his eyes and returned to his body. At the same time, he searched his mind for a way to deactivate the ability.
To no one’s surprise, he found it very quickly when his mind vibrated with the ability’s name and the word ’deactivate’.
His subconscious told him he didn’t need anything else, but not wanting to make a mistake, he checked the skill book to see if there had been any change.
’There is!’ A beaming smile emerged on his face as soon as he saw that the Growth Type Skill that had accompanied him all this time now came out with a grayish tone in the Skill Book.
When that came up in the System, it meant it was unavailable, so he guessed it would be the same this time.
Somehow, he felt relaxed after doing this. It was as if he no longer had to fear crossing the line. His body felt lighter, and his blood seemed to run calmer.
But, to ensure he hadn’t done anything wrong, he activated the skill again to see if it worked that way. Once it did, he checked the Book and smiled.
’Well...’ Without thinking about it anymore, he deactivated it again.
’Looks like I’ll finally be able to go take a look at that.’ He thought as he opened his eyes and looked out the window beside him.
Just then, a powerful tremor sounded, and Gray Allen seemed to be surrounded by an extremely powerful energy in the distance. Matthew almost choked from seeing this and saw a huge crack cross the mighty and resilient Clan City.
"What the hell is that, Gray Allen?" In shock, Matthew stood up abruptly.
But, in the distance, he could see that Gray Allen was not alone...
There were a few other people, and among those was a familiar face.
’The Elder of the Library? That Elder is really powerful, too.’
Matthew hadn’t realized something. When he deactivated his growth-type ability, all the power in his body was released. Even his vision was enhanced, or maybe... released?
Now, he could even see the aura covering the bodies of those people who weren’t even fighting, allowing him to partially see the power of all of them.
At those moments, nearby regiments began to move in that direction with great strides and great power.
At the same time, more than 20 powerful people flew out of the Central Mansion.
This made Matthew smile.
’So many powerful people wanting to mess with my plans... Good, good. Since I’m no longer bound by an ability that will damage my body, it’s time to start wreaking havoc.’ He thought, smiling a little.
