Dungeon Prowler : One Man Army 333 Courting Death

The boss of the 61st floor was not an ice wraith, well not in the sense of it having the conical shape and the pure ice attribute, the boss was a true ice wraith, a wraith clad in ice, the original pale ghostly colour was changed to the icy grey, the blue eyes overflowing with mana remained the same, it had both the st.u.r.diness of an ice wraith as well as the intangibility of the ghostly wraiths, making it very hard to counter, Yunan started with mana syphon before taking the boss head on in a fist brawl, he later switched to his weapons, skills and spells, it was a good practice session that ended with the boss an empty husk, Yunan took away the core and sent the body to the labs for research purposes.

The chest rewards were arguably the best since Yunan had entered the dungeon, first was a golden book that explains the way to access the sage level mastery and the divine level mastery without the need for a divinity, this book was what Yunan was seeking most at the moment, unfortunately he was too early to reach those ranks of mastery, according to the book, the stagnation Yunan was in because his stats were not enough to reach the sage level mastery, him reaching as close as he was, at the level he was at currently, it was supposed to be a thing for those who make geniuses look like dimwits, having reached this far and still experiencing minor advancement was in the realm of the impossible, still Yunan read the whole book and put a task in his mind to work out a solution on how to use that information in the best possible way.

Additionally there was crystal ball with golden glow inside it, it was a teaching item that allows one to review information as long as they had the crystal ball, the contents of this particular ball was the second thing that Yunan had in his wish list, the artificial intelligence or sentient items, the knowledge showed how the humans in the past created intelligence and how it evolved to become near sentient, it was capable of reasoning but lacked the drive to act without specific orders, it also contained the necessary knowledge for him to be able to read and understand the technology they got their hands on.

Immediately Yunan told the genie to issue a demand for all technology related to the bygone era, the rewards were quite enticing for something so useless, but who dared argue with a collector, they had money and nothing to spend it on.

The third thing Yunan got from the treasure chest was the third and final book in the trilogy written by Apophis, this one handled the creation of divinity as well as what Yunan would have wanted to know about that subject, the ability to create a divinity without ascending!. Yunan had many shards of divinity, he could now turn them to complete divinities and have greater control over their domains, with the amount of divinities he had, he could basically have domain over everything.

A thought then hit Yunan: how come he never met any G.o.ds that had control over many domains, he met a few that had been a.s.sociated with different things but never one that was dabbling in two or more domains, he decided to ask next time the G.o.ds came by for a refres.h.i.+ng time. Afterwards Yunan stayed and defeated the boss few more times before heading home, the mapping was already done and the girls were already back home studying diplomacy while the pets were relaxing and lazing about in the warmer biomes of the back garden, they had enough of cold and snow and ice.

The answer Yunan got for his question was from Death, the man was having his hair braided by Fae while arm wrestling both Balin and Dustan. "Son, you ask questions that are obvious even to stupid people, focusing on one divinity makes you a minor G.o.d, with some control over a domain, having control over two or more divinities gives you the right to create a basic realm, nothing fancy and unable to house souls, you become a mid level G.o.d, gaining mastery over 5 divinities grants you the right to a complete realm and access to the cycle of reincarnation and the office of a major G.o.d, anything higher than ten gives you access to fate and the ability to read it, anything beyond fifteen makes you a true G.o.d of creation and having more than twenty active divinities under complete control grants you the right to access and ability to alter destiny and be part of the high council, to manipulate fate like me you either need my level of control over the death domain or at least 30 active divinities, anything higher than that have not been born from yet, the last guy who had 30 dissolved himself in fate when he made a mistake trying to manipulate it"

Yunan listened carefully and picked up on a few things, since there was no limit to the possibile divinities one could have, the problem was in the control of said divinities, there was also the matter of having active divinities, meaning the possessor must have them on at all times, not like Yunan who kept his own dormant.

"Not that i am complaining but when did you guys tame him?" Yunan asked Leader who was uncharacteristically snuggling close to Lili for the first time in ages. "Don't know, we just hit it off after punching him enough times, he seems to be even more bored than we usually are, so why not play together, it's more fun that way". There was nothing with Leader's words but then Bai made a more suitable statement "boy, people speak of courting death like it is the thing you should never do, well we are proving them wrong, courting death is actually a fun thing to do"
