Guild Wars

Chapter 329 - The Four Beauties 4

Malevolent Spirit was an ominous skill that bypassed all physical defenses and attacked the mind. This was something that showcased Roma’s insane crowd control prowess.

If the target was one with no mental defenses or abilities like Draco, Zaine, or Eva, they would suffer horribly from this. In fact, one could say it was one of those rare unblockable skills as long as the target was relatively weak-minded.

It also dealt 30% mental damage per second over 10 seconds. This was on the level of an Epic skill, as that totaled to about 300% mental damage overall. Considering how the sheer power of mental damage had been explained, this would do intense amounts of damage.

However, its cooldown was prohibitive at 30 minutes. So really, Roma could only use it once per battle.

As for Cruel Beast Summoning, it was something she had shown recently. She had summoned a tiger spirit to rend that impudent Aqua Bear to pieces, a command which the tiger spirit had throughly obeyed with glee.

This spell had taken her a great amount of time to chant and then cast, but now it had been turned into an active skill. Of course, its duration had been limited to 30 seconds with a cooldown of 10 minutes, so its utility was limited to specific scenarios.

And then there was Sinister Shot. This was one of Roma’s greatest and most powerful casts at Rank 1, and she had used this to help finish off the Metal Dragon back during the Dragon Slaying Event.

It had taken her almost 30 minutes to cast back then, yet now it had been condensed into an active skill. It was also equivalent in power to a Semi-Legendary skill with about the same cooldown, which was 1 day.

With 500% Mystic Damage, which was Roma’s strongest practical damage source, any target she hit with this would be on the verge of deletion.

As for her new passive skill, Confusion, it was a dual buff and debuff skill. It buffed the restoration of an ally’s mental stamina and debuffed the enemy’s mental state.

What was interesting though, was that it manifested in the form of a dance. Roma’s gypsy race were a group of exotic dancers after all, so this was natural. It was likely that her movements would set the flame of any man’s heart, and some women too.

Eva was almost certain that this skill would never be used. Just like how she herself disliked allowing anyone but Draco to see her face, Roma would not be willing to show her dance for anyone but Draco to enjoy.

Eva judged that Roma’s improvements were extremely potent. What was even scary was that most of her skills meant little to her, as she preferred to directly cast her Mystic Arts.

In that sense, until Roma entered a battle, Eva could not learn what new Mystic Arts she could now manually cast. It was likely they would be a 100 times better than what was present on her character sheet.

Eva decided to check on Zaine next.

Zaine’s designation had not changed. She still remained a Royal Devil, as such a designation was not able to be improved as it was the pinnacle for the Devil Race.

However, her skills had certainly changed, with many new ones being added. Eva inspected all of them one by one.

｢Illusion – Passive skill

Zaine’s skills made Eva smile. It seemed like the succubus taking control of her own Rank up yielded some insane benefits for her, not putting her any lower than Hikari or Roma.

Mind Blast had gone from 30% mental damage to 60%, a one-fold increase, the duration also going up from 1 minute to one and a half. The cooldown had also gone from 10 minutes to 8 minutes, a pretty great reduction.

Charm had its duration increased from 12 hours to 14, while the cooldown had been reduced from 18 hours to 16. As for the contents, they remained unchanged, but its utility had greatly shot up now that Zaine had Ranked up.

Energy Drain had only manifested one change. Zaine could not extract energy through s.e.x.u.a.l stimulation of males, not just intercourse. However, it was a useless endeavor as it became a useless skill for Zaine. With the amount of energy in Draco;s s.e.m.e.n, she would never want for life. Even without it, the energy that her body drew in from Vita City-State made her saturated.

Rapid Blink had its distance increased from 10 meters to 15, the cooldown also going from 5 seconds to 4.5 seconds. It might seem like a small change, but it definitely wasn’t.

Omega Blast hadn’t manifested any changes aside from the note. At Rank 1, Zaine would have instantly died upon usage, but now, she would be permanently paralyzed. This was in the same category as the <Incurable Coma> Draco almost acquired once, which meant that Zaine could only be healed if she was given a Divine supplement or killed then revived.

Seduction, Telekinesis, Psychometry, Telesthesia and Illusion were unchanged. Of course, they needed no changes as these passive skills’ power were limitless, only constrained by Zaine’s stats.

She had five new skills, two more than Roma. 4 active skills and 1 passive.

The first active skill was the new Mind Barrier, a very important skill for a caster to have. It would prevent Zaine from being too reliant on Hikari’s own White Barrier, which had limited use. It perfectly blocked all mental damage for its duration.

Of course, like any shield, it had a damage threshold, but this threshold was always extremely high for objective skills rather than subjective ones, aka techniques. Unless one hit her with Draco’s own Devil Transformation-tier Mind Blast, she would be fine.

It also blocked 30% of all physical damage, a respectable amount seeing as Hikari’s only blocked 50%. Even Draco’s own Destruction barrier only blocked 10% of damage, which was slightly above most barriers.

Her second active skill was Mind Restoration, which was once again, a very important skill for a damage dealing caster. With this, she could provide some quick healing for herself, as not everyone had the privilege of being sisters with the world’s most powerful healbot.

Her third new active skill was Thunderstrike. It was a pretty straightforward one, she’d call down lightning from the heavens and whip around Mjolnir to aim it at her enemies.

Well, not exactly in that manner.

It had a respectable amount of damage, which was 70%. Since Zaine also had an augmentation passive skill for lightning attacks this would stack. Now that she had such talents, Eva would equip her with Electromancer items and armor in the future.

Putting aside the sheer power of lightning, which was only surpassed by Destruction Energy, just the chance for a stun made it exemplary. Stuns were the lifeblood of MMORPG battle, whether on a computer or in FIVR.

Her fourth new active skill was Thunderwave, basically an AOE lightning attack that dealt only 30% damage to each target. However, the range was extremely good, allowing Zaine to have some exemplary crowd control.

Then, there was her new passive skill, which was Lightning Aura. If Eva had to pick something from Zaine’s Rank up that was simply too perfect and overpowered.

It added a RNG lightning damage output to all of Zaine’s attacks, whether physical or mental, whether skill or technique. This alone made it extremely important to acquire some lightning element items for her all cost.

Zaine’s battle power had not just double, but almost quadrupled. It now made sense that her brother, Ratchet, could cause so much havoc on the main plane in the previous timeline at just Rank 5, in a world where Rank 7 entities existed.

Also, it gave every attack of hers a slight chance to stun the enemy, which was something that couldn’t be underestimated at all. It Zaine could luck out and pop out stuns continuously she could simply beat an enemy to death from beginning to end.

Eva then focused on Hikari’s changes. The White Dragoness’ stat sheet had changed very little enough that it only took Eva a brief look to go through it all.

｢Name: Hikari - Rank 2 Young Dragon

Level: 50

Exp: 0%

NPC Str: 100

NPC Dex: 100

NPC End: 100

NPC Spr: 345

NPC Cha: 100

NPC Lck: 100

Active Skills: White Light Healing, White Barrier, White Light Blessing.

Passive Skills: Item Creation, Aether Production, Dragobond.｣

Apart from Item Creation, which Hikari had displayed earlier, there was nothing new here. Eva checked the skill descriptions as well to be sure.

｢White Light Healing – Active skill
