Chapter 58: Hunting The Voidlings, And The Divine Construct’s Efficiency
The clearing was stained with movement and the scent of ruptured essence, as fractured limbs and twitching nerves of the Voidling’s massive body dragged along the dust-streaked terrain.
The creature’s form was a conjoined monstrosity of torsos, arms, tendons, and eyes—stitched together in no discernible pattern, crawling over itself in confusion and instinct.
Its head rotated too far along its spine, lips peeling back to reveal humanlike teeth in rows.
Kivas stood centered beneath the fractured sunlight, her eyes sharp with focus. One hand gripped the hilt of her newly soul-bound weapon—Royal Valor, now glowing faintly with energy drawn from her core.
The sheath shimmered with its crystal lattice, slowly rotating in her other hand, weightless and hovering.
Royal Valor, the newly appraised Curio weapon that Kivas acquired back then, was an Exotic Tier object.
Its blade housed a condensed energy reactor that generated energy over time, which Kivas could channel to replace the consumption of Hemo Psyche or Mana Psyche during combat. At the same time, its sheath possessed its own separate function.
The clustered crystals embedded across it were telekinetically linked to her grasp as long as any part of the blade and sheath was touching the owner.
By channeling focus through the base of the sheath, Kivas could manipulate those shards into various forms—defensive barriers, orbiting blades, or weapons of mass compression.
Each crystal regenerated over time when damaged, and with enough stored energy, she could multiply their number.
Now, with her Frugal Vow skill amplifying the quality of her equipped weaponry, the effect of Royal Valor was nearly doubled in both attack and manipulation.
