Bab 161: 161: No Longer Haunted 2

A series of notifications rang in Val's mind.

[Ding! Congratulations, Host, for killing an Uglyface Devil! You've gained +1500 EXP]

[For killing an intermediate-level devil for the first time, you have gained an additional reward. You've been rewarded with the Orb of Darkness!]

[Item name: The Orb of Darkness

Description: The Orb of Darkness is a powerful artifact with multiple purposes. Firstly, it can be traded with the Shrine of Evil for a considerable amount of undead-creating power. Secondly, it can absorb attacks. Absorbed attacks can be released at your command. This effect can only be triggered three times within ten minutes once a week.]

'Not bad,' Val thought before the aftereffects of his reckless use of wizardry hit him like a truck. 

His vision became disoriented, and he felt so nauseous that he failed to fight against it. He dropped to his knees, vomiting out whatever he had the previous night, as the world spun around him.
