Chapter 254: Purpose
(This chapter isn't edited yet)
"Hey you!" Noah pointed to the [Fire Claw] imp and called him over. The imp was confused, wondering why the master had called him, but was still happy that the master paid a little more attention to him than the others.
"Punch your most powerful punch in my hand." Noah said as he opened his hand and pointed his palm at the imp.
The imp was confused, he didn't want to hit the DM himself, but the DM had said it with a tone of command, so the imp wasn't allowed to refuse. With no other choice, the imp used all his strength on that punch and slapped Noah's hand.
Noah had no problem dealing with this punch, as he had over 40 Strength points after killing so many monsters in this stronghold.
If you were to put this imp's punch strength into stats, Noah would say his punch had 19 Strength points.
Wanting to dig deeper into this, Noah now ordered the imp to eat the eyes of one of the common ghost knights.
After eating the eyes, the punch the imp threw surprised Noah. If before the punch had 19 points in Strength, now Noah could feel that the force of that punch was [19.1].
Ordering the imp to now eat the eyes of the leader of the knights, the other imps began to stare at him with an expression of envy, while this imp showed unabashed pride, apparently quite happy to be privileged by the master.
After he ate this leader's eyes, the imp's punch surprised Noah once again. "This is amazing!" Noah squealed with happiness.
The imp punch that used to be [19.1] had now reached the force of [19.25], meaning the stronger the eye's owner, the more statistics the imps would also receive for eating those eyes .
This time Noah decided to be impartial, each imp would have the same amount of eyes as the other imps to eat, but only imps with skills could eat the essences. This was something that made the imps with abilities happy, but the other imps were not dissatisfied either, as they could continue eating the eyes of these monsters and getting stronger, becoming even more useful to the DM, some even had hope of to be able to awaken an ability someday to be even more useful and be able to receive more resources.
That aside, Noah asked Terrence to locate the group of monsters closest to the castle and went with the imps and the unicorn there.
This time the harvest was great. Noah and the demons encountered many groups of monsters on their way to the castle, to the point that Noah's stats skyrocketed again. Just by burning the corpses of these monsters, Noah had grown in stats today as much as an elite blessed would in 3 or 4 years trading family contribution points for regular C-rank essences.
This gave another idea for Noah, he wanted to see if he could exchange money for contribution points, to be able to buy more essences for Maggy, so she could get stronger and Noah could make the imps stronger too, after all, Noah had no shortage of money, spending the $1,000,000 he received from killing Fontinelli to buy essences for Maggy was a good investment, after all, in the future Maggy would need to defend herself, as well as being able to fight alongside him when he needed to.
So Noah looked at his stats screen before entering the castle.
[User: Noah Stern
Cash: $1,196,460
Level: 05, 421/16,000 exp
HP: 18/18
Strength: 37 → 44.1
Agility: 19 → 28.7
Stamina: 22 → 24.5
Mana: 18 → 23.9]
Noah was pleased with the increase in his stats, with an increase like that, Noah felt closer and closer to Rank B.
While he was walking with the group, Noah took the opportunity to ask the captain how much was needed to rise to Rank B.
The captain was surprised by Noah, but honestly replied that as soon as a blessed had 100 points in a stat, he could already be considered a B-rank blessed.
That answer shocked Noah. This was the first time that to reach a rank the force had an exact number needed to be reached.
Out of curiosity, Noah asked the captain how much it took to reach Rank A, but the captain said he didn't even know, he just said that the difference between a blessed Rank B and an A rank is as big as the difference between a blessed Rank E and a Rank B.
Noah was even more shocked. A blessed E-rank is pretty much an ordinary person, with only a few stat points, at most a blessed E-rank would have 10 points in a stat, but the captain was saying that A-rank strength was 10x greater than B-rank?
So you mean you would need 1,000 stat points to reach Rank A? Noah even asked the difference between Rank A and Rank S. Which was the minimum of his goal for 2 years, but the captain didn't know either. The amount of blessed Rank S in a country was very small and could be counted on one hand, so the secrets of these powers were not divulged.
But with that information Noah could already get an idea. 'In these two years I will need to gather thousands of statistical points. This will be a lot of work, but if I don't do it, I'll probably die, so I'll have to put in my best effort to get it.' Noah thought decisively.
But there was something Noah didn't know. This task seemed impossible for an ordinary human to complete, after all, who managed to move from Rank C to Rank S in just two years? But Noah had something special, he was the Descendant of Lucifer, and that would be the crucial factor that would allow Noah to achieve his goals.
Maybe it wouldn't be done by the conventional method, maybe by a method that no human knows, but that doesn't mean that no one knows, after all, humans aren't the only ones in this world...
