Hero of Darkness Chapter 745 The Spectre

Chapter 745 The Spectre

With the system's sudden notification that was even more surprising than Ronin suddenly rising to Mythical Rank, Kahn was left bamboozled.

What transpired here in just 10 minutes took him off guard as he couldn't find a proper explanation for it.

What was a Pseudo-Soul?

It was something not everyone could create and so far, only Demi-G.o.ds or True G.o.ds could grant it to other beings without a soul.

Kahn looked at Ronin's new transformed figure that looked extremely strong and agile at the same time if he were to fight someone like Rudra, Blackwall, Jugram and Omega in their true forms.

In terms of stats alone, he was now 4th strongest individual in their group if Kahn counted himself on the list. In terms of speed, he was only second to Omega.

As for hiding his aura and possessing skills to a.s.sa.s.sinate someone… even Kahn wasn't his match because now, even a 7th stage saint couldn't sense or track Ronin after his rank up.

"How?" asked Kahn to Ronin.

At this moment, Ronin was level 460… he had broken through twice in succession and became a being comparable to a 3rd stage saint on the spot. This was an occurrence that didn't happen normally.

"Did you get it from a Deity as well?" he queried cautiously.

"No." responded in a tranquil voice as his ma.s.sive figure, which was 250 meters tall in total.

"Master, I have absorbed 9 souls so far.

7 from the Hero's Party, 1 belonging to that 3rd stage saint from LNP and finally, the Hero of Fire.

Even after I finally managed to absorb and use their souls to rank up…

Axel's soul was too strong. It was bigger, denser and more potent than the others by at least 5 times.

Even after I ranked up and used all the souls of the saints…

There was still a considerable part of it left and it merged with my body.

Since I'm now a being who has control over Souls, I managed to harness and transform it into a Pseudo-Soul on my own." explained Ronin in a stern voice.

Kahn finally understood the real reason and found it completely logical.

Ronin not only had the skills but also his body catered towards collecting and using souls of other beings let it be legendary rank monsters or saints.

Just then, Kahn suddenly remembered the time while he was talking with Rudra and Omega when they brought Sedaris' head… n.o.body including himself had managed to sense Ronin when he appeared out of thin air.

His powers were developing on their own without anyone noticing and his skills were far beyond what Kahn could even achieve by his own means.

Thus, this situation could be explained.

"Hey system, check Ronin's soul." ordered Kahn vigilantly.

After a while, system replied in its lifeless voice.

[General Ronin's is not affected by anything and there are no traces of any foreign will or remnant soul.] reported the system.

"Phew! Good.

Means there is no will or anything that could influence him later." said Kahn as he sighed.

Because the matter of souls wasn't that easy. For example… Rathnaar died 800 years ago and even half of his soul that Kahn was extremely strong.

If not for the help from the system, Rathnaar was fully capable of controlling Kahn's body and pushing him into the backseat at his will.

Thus, Kahn was wary of Axel's soul somehow affecting Ronin.

"Soul Transfer, huh…" spoke Kahn with a skeptical tone.

Although Kahn had the means to resurrect his subordinates as long as he could provide the required resources… Ronin's new ability was simply too terrifying.

This was a life-saving ability even for someone like him as it would give you a 2nd life and a chance to resurrect yourself if you had made prior arrangements such as a suitable body in advance.

So in a way, if Kahn had this ability, he won't truly die and could resurrect himself within the next 2 days after his death.

Even though it couldn't come close to Death Absolution or would get him the same body… it was still an ability that could greatly extend your lifespan.

All you had to do was look for a fresh corpse in good condition and then possess it after your death. An old man could simply possess a young kid with this ability and start his new life. Or a sick person can possess the healthy body of a strong individual.

Even for Ronin… this was very useful as he could come out alive if he was ever caught by a powerful being and Kahn couldn't resurrect him for some reason.

"I guess it should be given at this point. We didn't have anything mind-boggling in the current arc so far. This checks the box." said Kahn as he moved to the next topic.

Now… Kahn had 3 subordinates at Mythical Rank. Each having their own unique abilities and skillsets that were rare even among both monsters and saints alike.

In the end, it was good news for him. Because their total manpower was rising by a ton compared to his time in Rakos & Vulcan empire where they had to keep low for many years.

At least in Zivot Empire, they could do things freely and weren't being oppressed by others.

The days of Kahn having to act like an underdog while hiding his strength were long gone at this point.

Their current lineup was something like this…

Rudra and Omega were at the 4th stage saint rank.

Kahn and Ronin were at 3rd stage saint rank.

Jugram, Blackwall and Oliver were at 2nd stage.

And finally, only Ceril and Armin were still stuck at 1st stage saint.

The last two seemingly having some sort of strict conditions to breakthrough to the next rank even with all the cores they had on hand.

But even so, Kahn was elated to see that they were no longer weak and could hold themselves in a battle even against a 6th stage saint at this point.

If Axel and his party fought them at this point… they'd be completely decimated within an hour.

"I guess good things do come to those who wait enough." said Kahn in a merry voice.

Little did he know that Ronin's sudden upgrade to Mythical Rank…

Was going to play a very crucial part in the upcoming future regarding the matter of life and death.
