Reborn As A Ghost: Time To Build My Undead Army!

Chapter 1180: Fusing Privileges



The last item regarding Privileges that I wanted to use was right in front of me, and yes, it had the shape of a marble again.

I don't know why they're all marbles but... whatever.

[Privilege Fusion Marble (SS Grade)]

A special, divine item in the shape of a white marble composed of crystalized Divine Power and Primordial Energies.

It allows for the combination of Origin Core Privileges, creating a brand-new Privilege of higher Rank and power, sometimes born from the combination of the previous Privileges, and other times completely different.

The maximum amount of Privileges that can be fused using this Item is 4, and once the item is activated and the Privilege Fusion begins, it cannot be turned off and the changes will be done permanently after fusion.

Reading the flavor text, it does reveal some pretty interesting things, such as that Privileges are like Origin Core Abilities themselves. And also that these marbles were crystalized from divine power and... primordial energies? No idea what that is.

Anyways, four Privilege is a big step, let's see all my Privileges right now...

{Divine Privileges}: [Jotun's Might (B Rank Privilege)] [Fárbauti Cruel Strike (C Rank Privilege)] [Divine Myriad Soul & Body Egos (S Rank Privilege)] [One With The Void (S Rank Privilege)] [Voracious Devourer of Gods (S Rank Privilege)] [Archnemesis of All Sins (A Rank Privilege)] [Religious Devotee (B Rank Privilege)] [Crazed Mad Gladiator (B Rank Privilege)]

Huh, okay, I don't have that many though, but it still a lot according to Tyr, he said I shouldn't even have them to begin with, but they were gifted, so what can I do about that?

I'll probably merge the low ranked obviously, Jotun's Might and Farbauti Cruel Strike are definitely getting merged...

[Jotun's Might (B Rank Privilege)]

A Divine Power bestowed by the almighty Ymir. You can channel the Primordial powers of the Titan Records to obtain a small part of every soul within this Realm and enhance your Attack Stat with it, increasing it to a maximum amount of up to +1000%.

However, the higher the bonus to Attack Stat, the higher the cost of Mana. Overusing this power might inflict great harm in your soul, be careful!

Duration: 30 Minutes. Cooldown: 24 Hours.

[Fárbauti Cruel Strike (C Rank Privilege)]

A Powerful Divine Privilege bestowed by nobody else than {Fárbauti, the Cruel Striker} upon a chosen one.

It allows for you to channel the power of his soul and summon his entire might in battle, forming a gigantic Axe made of Ice to strike down your foes with his Titanic Might!

Deals up to +700% Damage, ignores up to 30% of a foe's total defenses. Especially effective against Divine, Giant, and Calamity-type beings.

Duration: 15 Minutes. Cooldown: 12 Hours.

Their effects aren't bad, but they aren't the very best thing in the world, and they're more like active skills, which is annoying.

If by fusing that can be taken away and turn them into something like "automatic activation" that would be much sweeter for me.

Then, what else? Should I throw the strongest ones there too?

Hmm, nah, I should try to keep the S Rank privileges as they are if possible, I could just combine these two and be done with it, but it feels like I would waste an opportunity.

Maybe I could add... Religious Devotee and Crazed Mad Gladiator to the mix? Though I like their independent effects, dammit.

"Hahhh, this isn't as easy as fusing Skills, I always have a million skills so its easy to throw a lot into a fusion thing, but Privileges are few and precious..." I muttered. "Tyr do you have a privilege you can gift to me?"

"What?! Why would I even... I think mine were shattered when my entire body and soul was transformed into what you know as "the evil god" unfortunately," he answered plainly. "But isn't your System really overpowered? Just ask him if you can buy Privileges."

"Wait, true! Hey System, I do remember I unlocked a new System Ability recently... right? It's called [Outer Void Goddess Shop], right? I used it to get that Party Ticket." I said.

[After my evolution and the many new System Abilities I acquired, the [Outer Void Goddess Shop] is perhaps the strongest, it allows me to practically "hack" the tower and absorb its components, therefore I can sell you mostly everything that can be sold. And yes, in a higher floor, there's a shop that sells Privileges.]

"Woah! Really?"

[Everything comes for a price though, I am sure you know, you're quite greedy too, always saving your System Points instead of spending them. You hoard them a lot!]

"Well, unless I really need to use them, there's no need to waste them in unnecessary things, right? If I know I can win or defeat a foe, or get a clutch with my friends or family, why would I buy an item to facilitate the process?"

[That's definitely the mind of a greedy person! But well, although the item list is vast, there is no such item that can save you from a life-or-death situation. Most of them are situational, and can be used in interesting ways, but aren't omnipotent items that can do all the job for you... Nonetheless, here's what I can offer you that would fit you, miss greedy.]

[Opening [Outer Void Goddess Shop]!]

[Showcasing items that have been selected to be specifically useful for the user at this

moment.]

[Spiritual Beast (C Rank Privilege)] [Cost]: [50.000.000 System Points]

[Giant's Fist (C Rank Privilege)] [Cost]: [50.000.000 System Points]

[These two privileges are both cheap and fit the other two privileges you're fusing. These are

the most fitting and cheapest for miss greedy.]

"Don't call me miss greedy! But sure, let's take these!" I nodded fervently.

Ding! Ding!

[You have exchanged 50.000.000 System Points.]

[You acquired the [Spiritual Beast (C Rank Privilege)]!]

[You have exchanged 50.000.000 System Points.]

[You acquired the [Giant's Fist (C Rank Privilege)]!]

"Nice! With this, let's begin immediately!" I touched the marble and quickly chose all the

privileges I wanted.

Ding!

[You have chosen the following Privileges for Fusion using the [Privilege Fusion Marble (SS Grade)]: [Jotun's Might (B Rank Privilege)], [Fárbauti Cruel Strike (C Rank Privilege)], [Spiritual Beast (C Rank Privilege)], and [Giant's Fist (C Rank Privilege)]!]

FLUOSH!

I felt a tremendous power surging through my Origin Core, which spread across my new physical body and every fiber of my muscles, bones, skin, flesh, and everything.

I felt so much stronger, mightier...Nôv(el)B\\jnn

And my bones were full of calcium!

Wait, what?

Ding!

[Privilege Fusion has been a success!]

[Congratulations! You have successfully fused the Divine Privileges: [Privilege Fusion Marble (SS Grade)]: [Jotun's Might (B Rank Privilege)], [Fárbauti Cruel Strike (C Rank Privilege)], [Spiritual Beast (C Rank Privilege)], and [Giant's Fist (C Rank Privilege)] into the Divine Fusion Privilege: [Skeletal Titan Goddess of the Stars: Itzpapalotl (S Rank Privilege)]!]

Huh?!

What with that Privilege?

I did feel stronger physically and all but...

Skeletal goddess of the stars?

Oh my god, and that name is really cool too, I'm fairly sure that's an Aztec goddess!

"I think I got a pretty insane Privilege..." I muttered. "Ah, yeah, my bones... They feel very strong now, almost as if- Uwaah?!"

Suddenly I realized my bones were coming out of my own skin, covering my entire body.
