Chapter 1777: Belle"s Growth
"So I gained a Cla.s.s, and a Cla.s.s Skill... You"re saying the Cla.s.s is like... it makes me stronger the higher its number, level, goes up right? Okay," Belle nodded. "Then this skill is like another ability? And it grows stronger with numbers too?!"
"Yes, it"s al about numbers," I said with a proud smile. "The Enhancement I granted to you is part of the Divine Ability"s "upgrade", it took a few hundred thousand points of essence... I"ll go for more enhancements, if you"re ok with that?"
"W-Wait! What does that means? Am I like some sort of item or what?" she wondered.
"Kind of," I nodded with a giggle.
"What! I"m not an item!" she complained.
Technically I do use her a lot like an item, the spirits too... They"re like the Divine Weapons in a way, they"re always used like tools.
I"m not saying it coldly or something, its just how I believe it goes. And maybe that"s why she can receive enhancements.
Well, whatever the case...
FLUOSH!
Ding!
[You have directly Enhanced and Upgraded your Divine Spirit [Belle]"s Spirit Status!]

"Oh wow, the enhancements are really good!" Belle said with a smile. "Do I really have all those powers now?! So easily!"
"Yeah," I nodded. "See? I did it all for your own good, Belle, so stop being such a crybaby."
"I"m not a crybaby, maybe try to be nicer..." she pouted, crossing her arms as she had taken upon her little fox form. "Anyways, I kind of want to try this leveling up stuff you"re talking about! Shall we go hunt monsters?"
"Wait a bit, Belle, I would love to, but first we need to also use this enhancement on your siblings," I smiled.
"S-Siblings? They"re spirits, not my siblings..." she groaned.
"Yes, yes, your siblings," I nodded. "Alright... Gabriel, Ashlock, Rose! Come here as well."
With a mere call, I summoned them in front of me. they were all busy doing their own things around my Divine Realm but came back right after I called them.
FLASH!
A small mechanical angel with bright neon golden eyes and long metallic gold hair, covered with white armor and with a pair of wings made of swords of light appeared.
The Divine Spirit of Light and Technomancy Elements I created to fight and ultimately defeat the Vampire Venerable of Blood, a rather shy boy that doesn"t speak much, but who likes to take care of the farm and the animals, Gabriel.
FLASH!
A charming and gorgeous vampire woman whose body seemed ghostly, encompa.s.sed by flowing blood and dark shadows wrapping and twisting her figure.
A Vampiress that once attacked a Sect that I and Benladann had visited and become part of, accompanied by other Vampires, they had tried to kill the sect master and also to eliminate us.
She once served Scarlet, a fragment of Greenwood, or as his true name goes, Oberon. However, after I managed to kill her and her vampires, they were turned into ghosts through my developing Phantom Magic.
After that, she became a Blood Ghost, and continued evolving, gaining more and more Spiritual Powers, while rapidly learning more about herself and changing from her formerly
wicked ways.
She has changed a lot already, perhaps one of the few people around me that has changed so much from so long ago, she is now a hardworking woman that likes to train new vampire troops, and also has hobbies involving cooking, sewing, and making clothes of her style,
which is mostly gothic, Rose.
FLASH!
And a large, red-colored tree, with crimson leaves and eye-shaped fruits, glaring at me with all of its eye-shaped fruits, while red crystals grew over its demonic wood.
Made from the experimental Yggdrasil Trees made by the Demon of Technomancy, Jonathan, by fusing them with the Demonic Essence of Pandemonium"s Lungs, they were designed to cleanse Yggdrasil from the Miasma left behind.
However, they were the lost, abandoned experiments, the Demonic Yggdrasil Trees that died and dried out in that laboratory for eons, their souls and bodies twisting into monstrous
beings.
When I created the Dream Dungeon to get to the Core hidden deep within, I ended awakening them from their death-like slumbers, unified together with Pandemonium"s lungs into an aberrant being, which we ultimately managed to defeat.
At the end, I obtained their Soul Orbs when the Dungeon ended, and I used them as materials
to give birth to him, the Demonic Yggdrasil Tree Spirit, Ashlock.
A child that is still learning about many things, the reincarnation of these "failures" that Jonathan coldheartedly abandoned.
He"s a good child, he likes exploring new landscapes the most, and also eating demons.
Especially eating demons.
"Glad you"re here," I said. "I"ve found a new way for you to continue growing stronger, Rose, Gabriel, Ashlock. Now, sit down and relax, I"ll get it down in a flash."
