Chapter 77: Iron Sovereignty
Chapter 77 – Iron Sovereignty
Kaden had chosen Will to be the first stat to surpass the limit for a reason. It was the stat he needed the most right now, because soon, he would be heading to a dungeon he knew absolutely nothing about in order to obtain an evolution stone.
He knew that with enough Will, even if his strength was lacking, he could die as many times as needed and come back stronger, without resenting the negative effects of his multiple deaths.
So for him, the choice wasn’t even a question.
And the moment he chose to put all 150 stat points into Will, Kaden immediately collapsed onto the floor, his body convulsing, his hands clenching his head with such terrifying force that it looked like he was trying to crush his own skull. And truly,
It wasn’t far from that.
The pain he was feeling was immeasurable. It was like a vengeful god had taken a warhammer and pounded his head again and again, each strike vibrating through his brain like thunder laced with lightning—his ears, his eyes, his mouth, all began to bleed, violently and without pause.
Reditha appeared instantly, her sword form flickering with panic as she erratically circled around Kaden’s fallen body, her aura screaming worry and panic but all she could feel back from him was pain.
Deep. Raw. Unfiltered pain.
The moment she fully sensed it, her body flinched she nearly fled, trembling from the sheer weight of what Kaden was going through. But she stopped herself the moment her ’gaze’ landed back on him.
Kaden was still holding on, barely, but it was only because of his Will stat that he hadn’t already passed out. So when, amid the chaos, he felt the pain slightly lessen, he forced his swollen eyes open and saw Reditha right there, trembling so violently she was beginning to crack.
