Chapter 7 - Temporary Weapon and Status window

Alex nodded as he could understand and approved the new status window simplicity.

''Lastly, only by becoming Demigod you will receive a title, one who will become your Godhood alias. Skills and abilities have limited number, you can only have ten skills and five abilities. Naturally, skills refers to learned abilities acquired through training and various other things while abilities are innate, most of the time earned because of your racial trait for example your Super Regenerative ability or the Asura's ability.''

After a brief silence, the miniature goddess continued to wrap up her message.

"This new world is far more perilous than the last. From what we've gathered, the Chaos Prince has already established a foothold here. You must prepare thoroughly because he is one, perhaps even two steps ahead of you. This is the reason I created this system—to assist you. It will function as your guide, allowing you to set goals and earn rewards that will strengthen you and those close to you.

Since Nemesis is currently sealed, I devised an alternative—a temporary weapon. While it may not possess the same power as her and has limitations, it will serve you until she awakens and Nyx recovers. The system will reveal the gifts I have prepared for you. I wish you the best of luck until we meet again."

The miniature goddess vanished after delivering her message, and the emotionless voice of the system resonated in the air.

[Do you wish to see the Gifts?]

Alex nodded, and instantly, the gifts were displayed before him. The first was the new weapon he had anticipated—a gun. It resembled a Baby Eagle III but was larger in size. The sleek black design had no safety button, as it was a magical weapon crafted solely for him. It would siphon his magic power and convert it into bullets, allowing him to fire indefinitely as long as he had magic available. With minimal recoil, it felt familiar to him, as it wasn't his first experience with a magic gun. While this weapon couldn't use specialized bullets like the Void Bullet, which could suck someone into a black hole, it could create other special bullets, such as Fire and Ice, though the magic consumption would be substantial.

Setting the magic gun down on the table—unable to test it yet due to his sealed status window—he turned his attention to the second gift: Choosing 3 skills.

Having lost his other skills due to the curse, Alex could now choose a few new ones.

A golden window materialized before him, displaying a variety of skills along with brief descriptions.

After browsing through the options, he made his selections quickly. First, he chose Super Accuracy, a skill that ensured he would never miss a shot and granted him an Eagle View. Next, he selected All Weapons Master, a skill that would allow him to wield every weapon as if he had trained with it for years. Finally, he opted for the Magic Recovery skill to help him regain his magic power more quickly. Satisfied with his choices, he turned his attention to the last gift.

Finally the 3rd gift: the unsealing of his status window. After giving his approval, Alex felt a sudden snap within him. He relived every moment from his first death to his reincarnation and the final battle. Then came an inhumane pain that forced him to bite down hard on his lower lip to endure. The agony passed in an instant, though it felt like an eternity to Alex, who was drenched in sweat. Finally, he gained access to his status and what he saw shocked him, leaving his mouth agape.

✧Status Window✧

Alexander Kael Touch / Royal Asura

Magic Gunslinger

Level 5

DIVINITY: ???

Magic: SSS

STR: SS

AGI: SS

DEX: SS

INT: S

Gift: Death Guns

Skills: {Super Accuracy} {Master of All Weapons} {Magic Recovery}

Abilities: {Super Regeneration} {Divine Sense} {Asura Dragon Mode} (Sealed) {Eyes of Death} (Sealed) {Zero Domain} (Sealed)

First and foremost, he hadn't anticipated seeing his level so high; it must have been the goddess's doing, as she had somehow managed to salvage his previous experiences.

Secondly, his stats were astonishing, particularly his magic power, which was rated SSS—just below EX rank. With such a vast magical capacity, he would need to adjust his plans accordingly. As for the sealed abilities, he knew he would eventually unlock them. The Super Regenerative ability doesn't need any explanation while Divine Sense could be used to check everything within a certain radius. Nobody can come closer without being detected, this innate ability have certain benefits such as granting a sixth sense for danger.

Alex's eyes were focused on the other innate abilities.

The Eyes of Death were linked to Nyx, and they would become accessible once she recovered. This would make it easier to utilize his temporal abilities; when used on a weaker enemy, it could deliver an instant kill. Moreover, if he unsealed it and combined it with Nyx in her gun form, the Death Bullet would be unleashed—a bullet capable of killing anything that exists, but at a certain cost.

Shaking his head, he redirected his focus to Zero Domain, which was undoubtedly tied to the slumbering Silveria (Nemesis). Within this domain, no magic could function except for his own. Lastly, Asura Dragon Mode must relate to his racial traits; he hoped to unseal it as he progressed, perhaps upon reaching the Demigod rank.

Clenching and unclenching his left arm, he felt strength surging through it. It was exhilarating to feel this power once again.
