In the mind of the Discount Human, only introspective and retrospective thoughts roamed.

It still bothered him how he had gone mad. It felt… anticlimactic in a way. Where was the whole show? The satisfying ending.

He needed to see it at least.

He had had many plans for when he successfully took over the body of Guddhar and one of those was to steal the Yamogogofafa.

Such a treasure would be incredibly useful to him.

Unfortunately, seeing it destroyed when he came to, was rather disappointing and infuriating especially when he now knew it was his fault.

What a waste.

Worse yet, the state of Mount Sagemore afterwards was rather intense.

Stylla even described it as him going feral, which was insane to imagine.

Therefore, as Skullius sat down, he refused to let this go as he delved within, searching for exactly what happened. He wanted to know the full scope of what this madness could do. What it felt like.

He had to remember.

He was Level 7 right now because he had succeeded in taking over a body and though he didn’t know how it would work to have memory outside of his own body, Skullius decided to try anyway..

Trying to skim through memory was a nasty endeavour.

Now that he thought about it, messing with memories was a rather critical affair really.

The state that Guddhar was left in after his invasion was very telling of how much damage he could cause with this.

Did that also mean that through [Basic Evil Invasion], a path for manipulating foreign memories was opened? Or could he alter his own memories?

Perhaps. Perhaps not.

“Damn it!” Skullius grumbled as he opened his eyes.

He couldn’t see or remember anything. Perhaps it was by virtue of him not being in Guddhar’s body anymore.

But that didn’t make sense still.

Since this was a dead-end, Skullius decided to focus on the other elephant in the room.

In all truth, this particular elephant had passed through his room some time ago too but what mattered was, it was here now, weighing the room down and making a lot of noise.

Skullius just had to announce it verbally to vent his frustration.

“Who the flesh is this girl?!”

That girl who had made an appearance in his mind. Just who was she?

As Skullius had a clearer view of her now than when he fought Jackpot, he could surmise that this was the same girl he saw in the block of ice in Somanda’s whatchamacallit place!

At least the outline seemed the same as she wasn’t very clear in the block of ice.

“I was even having a conversation with her and… all that…anger…” Skullius mumbled to himself.

He had been gesturing and bellowing in that weird space subconsciously as this character he seemed to inhabit yelled.

Yet, he felt no close connection to this character at all.

Skullius didn’t dare to peek into these memories some more as unlike the case with his rampage, this could cause him severe pain, a lesson he had learnt back then.

Gah, so many instances teaching so much.

The Discount Human was intensely bothered by the lingering emotion. It was uncomfortable.

The text for Doom Factor 2’s description didn’t make him feel any better either.

Since the answers to both these were unattainable at the moment, Skullius decided to focus on something that could potentially improve his mood.

The notification about his affinity to [Evil Darkness] being promoted to rank ‘B’ was hopefully something significant.

Apparently, having a greater affinity allowed one to use whatever was attached to said affinity with better efficiency.

So far, while Skullius did enjoy using this peculiar element, it didn’t seem like anything special compared to any of his more insane Null Life abilities.

Also, he had put off learning [Just Light] enough now. He had been hoping that improving in one element would boost his strength faster than dividing his attention.

Perhaps if there was a major change, he could now begin to try out [Just Light].

Even though he had witnessed the more ridiculous stuff that he could do using the two elements in the Labyrinth, such as binding powerful foes, warping space and literally giving out immortality, Skullius didn’t believe that it was just the power of the elements required for that.

Wasn’t Fulgardt said to be someone who had achieved Divinity? Whatever that meant?

“Oh well… Let’s see then what this thing can do,” said Skullius as he conjured some darkness with the bits of mana he had recovered.

Skullius’ face changed the moment he saw and felt the presence of the single wisp of darkness that coiled around his finger.

He drew back his head with sweat (water) starting to pour from his face.

What he saw was not some odd pitch black darkness.

No.

It was darkness indeed and sure it did not reflect the dimming world’s light but…

It looked like it didn’t belong as he focused on it, with the background of nature behind making this all the more true.

What made this even more frightening was the way that space seemed to avoid this wisp of darkness as inches around it, disfigured and disorderly lines scrambled as if space was being made to unravel, forming incomprehensible doodles when one looked closely.

Worse yet, Skullius felt something oddly unsettling when the he faced the darkness, as if it was speaking to him… trying to convince him that it could flesh up all things.

All this was from a wisp.

After the initial shock, Skullius couldn’t help but feel hyped.

“Hey now. Don’t get me too excited bro,” he said with a smile.

He began twirling around the wisp of darkness into different forms with [Basic Evil Weaving] before noticing another change a minute later.

Manipulating the darkness became… vastly easier and as he got more and more familiar with it, a notification that Skullius should have expected popped up.

[‘Basic Evil Weaving’ has reached LV10. Would you like to evolve it into its next form?]

“Of course I would,” Skullius excitedly responded.

A tingling sensation surged within him as he felt his class skill evolve, its efficacy improving vastly as the wisp of darkness in his hand quivered and shook during the process.

[‘Basic Evil Weaving’ has evolved into ‘Advanced Evil Weaving’]

Skullius felt himself improve significantly in his feel and hold over [Evil Darkness].

With how much he used [Evil Darkness] related skills every day, Skullius only expected this, just not now.

[Basic Evil Production] was probably on its way to evolving too since he used it in tandem with [Basic Evil Weaving].

This managed to take his mind off of his current depression quite a bit but when Skullius recalled that he had another prize that Stylla and the others had not been able to obtain, he grinned.

The wisp of darkness vanished, Skullius not being able to make it last too long.

While the Discount Human was really interested in what [Evil Darkness] could do now, he didn’t have the mana to test it out.

However, he had another option to quench his sorrow and apprehensions.

The hundreds of Enriching gems that sat in his storage rings!
