Chapter 107: Chapter 107 - Level Up
Inside that very room, there was a preparation going on for some kind of cult activity with many kinds of drawings on the walls and some very strange items that were placed upon the floor.
They were two very strange rocks and two very creepy looking hearts that were beating by themselves.
Where there were the items on the floor, there also sat someone who was overlooking everything with a peculiar stare as he thought.
\'Why does it feel like I am trying to pray or offer sacrifice to a dark being.\'
William was looking at all the different kinds of preparations he had done for the advancement process. The drawings on the wall were something he searched on the internet that told him to do this if he wanted to make his advancement any smoother.
\'But something inside me is telling me that this drawing might be bogus.\'
William gave a deep sigh at the thought.
\'This is what happens when you try to believe in stuff that has been written by people who never leave their room. Well at least it won\'t be doing me any harm now, would it?\'
William opened his system stats to verify one thing.
[ Luck: 50 ]
\'Well luck hasn\'t dropped any less after getting my new potential so let\'s assume the best for now and go with this.\' William thought and prepared to start the advancing.
He looked at one last time before closing his eyes and attempting to go into his inner mind. In no time, he opened his eyes to see that he had arrived at the place where the two translucent cubes stood.
The tubes at the current moment were a little different than before. Both cubes were actually moving clockwise very very slowly unlike before when both of the cubes stood with no intentions of moving.
William put his hands forward but didn\'t touch any of the cubes as his hands only hovered over them just barely out of reach.
Even while his hands didn\'t touch the cubes they were able to feel the heat emanating from them as it felt like they were ready to hatch from their inhabitation.
William closed his eyes and started giving mana to both the cubes. And as he gave more of his mana the cubes started to feel more hotter until they were so hot that the cubes lit up and the designs etched on them couldn\'t be seen anymore.
He kept giving mana to them and the cubes soaked in the mana completely without any intention of stopping.
William prior to the advancement didn\'t drink any mana potions that may help him give more mana to the cubes.
William kept on giving mana to them until his mana reserves were very close to emptying completely but there was no worry or concern on his face on that matter like he knew that was going to happen.
And he indeed knew that it would happen and he still didn\'t do anything to stop it.
It was actually one of the procedures he needed to complete to advance.
He needed his mana capacity to empty completely until none of them were left to take for the cubes and then and only then will the real process for advancing towards the next level would start.
William actually didn\'t know if it was actually true or not as he had read about it on an internet forum.
So William waited until all of his mana capacity was gone and then he started to feel something else.
The cubes in front of him were starting to shake slowly and slowly until they were shaking very violently but William didn\'t stop it as he was actually excited to see them.
This was actually the next process of advancing. So he smiled as he felt them from his mind as William knew that he was succeeding in his endeavor.
But something happened that changed his face 180 degrees.
The cubes that were violently shaking at their place suddenly attached themselves to each of his hands. And because the cubes were very very hot, William felt the full brunt of the heat on his hands and he screamed very painfully.
"AHHHHHHH AHHHHHH"
"AHH AHH AHHHHHHH"
William in his very painful state couldn\'t close his eyes anymore as he looked upwards in the vast darkness and screamed as loudly as he could. But there was something strange in them as his eyes which had golden irises changed completely with one eye hole emanating pure white light and the other one pure darkness.
That wasn\'t the only strange thing that was happening to them as on the outside world, William\'s real body had the same reactions he was having on the inside with both of his eyes emanating a white and dark light which was straight out of a horror movie.
The items that were placed in front of him started to shine brightly as they were levitating slightly as they didn\'t touch the ground anymore.
William slowly opened his mouth to an exceptionally wide degree as the inside of his mouth was pitch black with nothing that specified that it was indeed a mouth as there were no teeths or a tongue but a pitch black darkness with no end to it.
From his mouth came a dark sound that vibrated outside the room but didn\'t leave that room. If one could hear that sounds then their ears would rupture and bleed from how high pitched those sounds were.
But the materials that were levitating on the floor had a different reaction to them. Unlike how others would flee from hearing the sound, the materials were actually coming closer to it as if the sound was a siren that was beckoning them to come closer to it.
The Materials came closer and closer until they went inside William\'s mouth and towards the center of his body where all the materials started to break and then mix with his bodies. They went to every fiber of his body, strengthening them to an even higher degree.
It took a long while as they were breaking themselves and only after their already broken parts had mixed with the body completely that they began that process again. This cycle went on until all the parts of the materials were completely gone.
But the process wasn\'t finished yet as the body was still undergoing a process. Every cell and molecules of the body were going through a heavy change as they looked like they were vibrating so hard that they were breaking themselves.
Until they did.
Every single cell and molecule broke apart as new ones started to grow from nothingness until they completely filled the ones that had destroyed themselves previously.
The body that had been growing through such strains finally broke its previous bottleneck as its limits reached a new height that was waiting to be broken.
But the advancement was complete and William too was exhausted by the ordeal as he slumped down on the floor and went unconscious as he didn\'t notice the new prompts being shown by the system.
