Leo saw an image of the black-coloured stone on the mirror screen and could not help but feel like he had seen an oasis in the middle of a desert.
It was none other than the âGod stoneâ that could even make the Supreme Heroes go crazy.
â¦
[Diamond] grade item from the [Treasure room].
1) God Stone x 1 (20 million treasure points )
Item name: God stone.
Usage: A rank 9 hero can become a supreme hero after using it.
Information: An item that was even valuable for the beings from the grade 3 worlds.
â¦..
Unlike the previous sections, there was only one item in the [Diamond] section, and the moment his eyes landed on the item, the mirror showed the information about the item.
âWait a second.â
However, after seeing the usage of the item, Leo frowned.
âDidnât the old remnant spirit say I can use it break my slave seal? Then why is it not included in its information?â
Nevertheless, Leo still bought the âGod stoneâ because he knew how valuable it was.-.
Soon, 17 million treasure points were deducted from Leoâs account; however, he was still left with 14.5 million treasure points.
After Hermax admitted his defeat, his 15 million treasure points got added to Leoâs 16.5 million treasure points and became 31.5 million treasure points.
âSwooshâ
As soon as the payment was completed, a black stone came out of the mirror and fell into Leoâs hand.
âSuch a small stone is capable of making supreme heroes go crazy.â
Leo revealed a slight smile at the small black-coloured stone in his hand.
âI will ask the old spirit about the God stone after purchasing the items from the [Platinum] section.â
Since he still had millions of treasure points, Leo decided to buy the items from the remaining section of the [Treasure room].
âDing,
The system detected the âGod stoneâ in the hostâs hands.
âDing,
The host can use the âGod stoneâ to upgrade the system. Do you want to upgrade the system?
Just as he was thinking of opening the [Platinum] section of the [Treasure room], Leo received a couple of system notifications.
âSystem upgrade?â
Leo was pleasantly surprised.
âDing,
Yes. After the system upgrade, the system will unlock new features, and even the yearly cool-down of the âTalent swallowing abilityâ might come down.
The system informed the benefits he would receive from upgrading the system, which obviously tempted Leo.
âSystem, the old remnant spirit said I can break my slave seal with the help of the God stone. Is that real?â
To him, System was very knowledgeable and wanted to know whether he could break the slave seal with the God stone before deciding whether to break the slave seal or upgrade the system.
âDing,
The God stone can even break the seals placed by a supreme hero.
âReally? Then I want to break my slave seal.â
Seeing the system notification, Leo was excited and decided to break the slave seal.
âDing,
However, it is too much waste to use a God stone to break a slave seal.
âHuh?â
Leo frowned and replied, âSystem, you do know how painful it was to bear this cursed slave seal, right?â
Generally, having a regular slave seal would not be painful; however, Leo killed his slave master, and thus he got cursed with a âForbidden curseâ that damaged his soul by 50 percent.
It would be back to the same 50 percent damage no matter how much he heals his soul.
âDing,
The system knows very well; however, did the host forget the systemâs main objective?
âIt is to make me the Strongest God.â
How could Leo forget the system words back when he activated the system?
Leo barely survived one day after another by slaving inside a manticoreâs mine during that time.
âDing,
After the successful system upgrade, I awakened a special ability similar to âTalent swallowingâ. So, the system suggests the host upgrade the system.
âHuh? An ability similar to âTalent swallowingâ?â
To Leo, the âTalent swallowingâ ability changed his life completely. So, he was tempted.
âBut, I afraid I might not hold onto the pain if I canât break the slave seal.â
Even though he was tempted to have another ability similar to âTalent swallowingâ, Leo knew he should be alive to enjoy that ability.
Therefore, he still decided not to upgrade the system and was determined to break the slave seal.
âDing,
Host, after the upgrade, the system becomes powerful enough to suppress the slave seal from a supreme hero, or I can even share your pain. Isnât that enough reason to upgrade the system?
Leo understood one thing from the systemâs back-to-back notifications: â The system wants an upgrade badly.â
âPhewâ
Taking a deep breath, Leo replied, âFine. If not for you, I would have not endured the pain from the slave seal. So, I will upgrade it.â
Leo was grateful to the system and felt it should repay it by upgrading it.
Moreover, in the end, from the system upgrade, he would be the one who gets all the benefits.
âDing,
The host used the âGod stoneâ to upgrade the âTalent swallowing systemâ.
âDing,
It will take one day for the system to upgrade. Please wait patiently for the new version of the system.
Soon, the system started upgrading and asked Leo to wait one day.
âI hope my âTalent swallowingâ abilityâs cooldown decreases after the system upgrade.â
Even though Leo didnât know what type of system features would be available after the upgrade, he hoped for a decrease in the cooldown time.
Leo was even willing to instantly give up on becoming a âSupreme heroâ using the God stone. So, he was looking forward to the completion of the system upgrade.
âEven with the God stone, I can become a Supreme Hero; however, upgrading the system is not something I can do on my own.â
Even though Leo could instantly finish his revenge if he became a supreme hero, Leo wanted to be the most powerful being behind the âSupreme hero,â and it would be possible with the help of the system.
The more features the system has, the more powerful it would become.
âNow, itâs time to clear the [Platinum] section of the [Treasure room].â
