He had already absorbed Velzard's dragon factor, acquiring her ultimate skill, Cthulhu, Lord of Divine Ice, and now it was time for the next step in his grand plan.
Kevin had also divided his Core of End into shards each representing a different aspect of the fundamental forces of the universe.
"Fifteen shards," Kevin mused to himself as he surveyed them. Each shard glowed with its own distinct energy: Reason, Void, Thunder, Wind, Ice, Fire, Sentience, Binding, Legion, Death, Corruption, Light, Water, Earth, and Shadow. The core's main essence, though, was the one Kevin held in reserve for Kiana, his most lively wife.
Kevin has combined the shard of Ice and Binding with velzard Core, knowing they would complement her new form. She had grown immensely in power, and now it was her sister Velgrynd's turn.
Kevin's eyes widened slightly as he read the system's new task.
"Task: Collect all Lovecraftian Ultimate Skills (2/7)"
Reward:
*50M system points
*A new cultivation vessel
*Complete cultivation method: Finality
But then, doubt crept in. "It might be possible to collect four, but collecting Yog-Sothoth, Azathoth, and Shub-Niggurath..." Kevin muttered to himself, his thoughts clouded. "That's next to impossible. Especially Azathoth and Yog-Sothoth. How can I acquire ultimate skills like Raphael or Michael, I don't think it is possible to copy those ultimate skills".
As Kevin pondered this, a familiar voice echoed in his mind, snapping him out of his worries. "Kevin-nii, relax!" It was Bronya, cheerful and confident. "I've been going through your memories, and I think I can compensate Raphael with another high-computing ultimate skill. Don't worry so much!"
A breath of relief escaped Kevin as Bronya's words reassured him. "Good," Kevin thought.
"I really want to complete this quest, especially to understand more about this Finality Cultivation. Even cultivating one Dao Law is difficult—how is it possible to cultivate every law which Finality represnt ."
Kevin turned to Velgrynd, who stood with a regal air. She smiled at him knowingly, confident in his abilities and trusting him completely.
"Ready?" Kevin asked, his voice calm, though filled with authority.
Velgrynd smirked. "Of course, husband. I'm eager to see how much stronger I'll become."
Kevin nodded and raised his hand, activating the Authority of Stars once more. Iridescent light enveloped Velgrynd as her essence was absorbed into the Nucleation Core, just as he had done with Velzard. The process was intricate and required complete focus.
Kevin's eyes glowed blue as he combined Velgrynd's ultimate skill, Charity King Raguel, with the shard of Fire and Legion, evolving her into a new form with an ultimate skill of divine fire: Cthugha, Lord of Divine Fire.
The moment the transformation was complete, a radiant burst of flame erupted around Velgrynd, filling the room with intense heat that immediately subsided, controlled by her will. Her new form shimmered with power—fire and earth energies coalescing around her in perfect harmony.
As Velgrynd's transformation neared completion, Kevin felt the notification from his system.
"Ultimate Skill Acquired: cthugha lord of divine fire" and Velgrynd dragon factor.
The moment her transformation finished, the chamber was filled with an intense, fiery aura.
"Well?" Velgrynd stepped forward, a teasing glint in her eyes. She leaned in close, her fiery lips brushing against Kevin's cheek before she planted a kiss on his lips. "Thank you, husband."
Velgrynd, however, wasn't done. She turned around, flaunting her new form, and gave the rest of the group a smug look. "What's the matter? Jealous?"
The others, especially Velzard and Kiana, immediately clenched their fists, struggling to suppress their reactions. "Oh, you think you're clever now, don't you?" Velzard muttered under her breath.
Meanwhile, Kevin was still analyzing Velgrynd's new powers. Her energy signature had skyrocketed from 48M EP to 158M EP, a massive leap. Her new ultimate skill, Cthugha, Lord of Divine Fire, was incredible. It included abilities such as:
*Thought Acceleration
*Analytical Appraisal
*All of Creation
*Law Domination
*Multidimensional Barrier
*Space-Time Domination
*Parallel Existence
*Dimensional Leap
*Flame and Earth Domination
*Gravity Domination
*Scorch Excitation: Accelerating and amplifying energy and other related phenomena.
*Energy Embrace: Allowing the user to have extreme control over energy itself.
Just as Kevin was about to move on to the next part of his plan, Veldora, who had been quietly (and surprisingly) patient up until now, couldn't hold back anymore. "Alright, alright, enough of this mushy stuff!" he bellowed, stepping forward with an eager grin. "It's finally my turn, right?" he said, his eyes sparkling with enthusiasm. "You better make me stronger than everyone else, Kevin!"
Kevin shook his head, smiling. "We'll see about that, Veldora."
Kevin went through the same process with Veldora, absorbing his dragon factor and combining his core with the shard of Wind and Lightning.
The result was spectacular. Veldora's ultimate skill evolved into Nyarlathotep, Lord of Chaos, a skill that was as unpredictable and wild as the storm dragon himself. His new abilities included:
*Thought Acceleration
*Analytical Appraisal
*All of Creation
*Parallel Existence
*Pursuit of Truth
*Space-Time Manipulation
*Danger Prediction
*Wind and Thunder Domination
*Probability Manipulation
*Multidimensional Barrier
*Electron Manipulation and generation
Veldora's power spiked from 88M EP to 196M EP, an incredible increase that even surprised Kevin. "Your EP is now higher than my restricted form," Kevin noted, a flicker of amusement in his voice.
Veldora couldn't help himself. "HA! I told you all! I'm the strongest! I'm going to crush you, Kiana!"
Kiana laughed, stretching her arms casually. "You can try, Veldora. But you'll still end up flat on the ground.
They then went in sky and start their battle.
Kiana, standing on space, rolled her eyes, her arms crossed over her chest. "Veldora, you're such a loudmouth. You realize I'll still wipe the floor with you, right?"
Kevin sighed, rubbing his temples as he watched the chaos unfold. "I should've known this would happen," he muttered. "Velzard, Velgrynd—set up a barrier before they tear this world apart."
Kevin also used his Void authority to isolate this place in separate dimension.
And so, without hesitation, Veldora and Kiana launched themselves at each other, the sheer force of their clash sending shockwaves through the dimension.
