Chapter 5 - Good abilities

Divine ability: soul harvest.

The user of this ability can steal the soul of a defeated opponent, binding it to a sand body created through sand reanimation.

Conditions: it requires the soul of the opponent defeated by the user, soul is extracted and stored within the player until a sand body is created, soul retains former memory of it's former life, soul develop a new loyalty to the user, the soul binding could drain the user energy if it is not sufficient leading to complications.

Divine ability: power grab.

The user of this ability steal power from dead opponent.

Conditions: power can only be taken when the opponent is dead, you can't choose the power you want, the power choose at random for you.

Kyle was out of words. These 6 abilities are strange and powerful just like how strange the pyramids look like. The gold one was an ability that could make so strong and undefeatable, that is along as you continue winning and killing your opponent, you will continue getting stronger, just like it name 'power grab'.

The required conditions for the them were indeed very troublesome and hard to achieve. But Kyle was different from. Unlike those who came before him, some where great tacticians, some where trickster, an some are goody two shoes. But he can say none of them have watch the amount of film he have much, name it he have watch Bollywood, Nollywood, Hollywood, japanese, Philippians, name any he have watch all genre both action, sci-fi, romantic comedies, fantasy and the rest, he have watch anime from the letter a to z, even those that has numbers has name, he have read novels, comic and Mangas, calling him an 'otaku' will be an underestimation. His predecessors find the strange pyramids abilities useless but from the eye of an 'otaku' like him this abilities are god sent literally.

He could already see the future, will he be overpowered like 'Ainz' or 'Anod' maybe like 'Rimuru' or lord shadow. But he have to keep his dream on hold, because if he did not meet the perquisite of this abilities, his dream will never come true.

For example, some of this abilities require the killing of powerful opponent or monsters before it can be used. And the synthesis abilities look like there will be some complications that was not written there, because there will be restrictions when combining two different creatures and abilities.

 This abilities may take a lot of time to become powerful, it may even be a waste of time and energy which would hinder them from getting stronger and even make things complicated because of the amount of research needed to improve the ability. This abilities may even seem like the worst.

But in the next minute. Kyle looked at the god and point to 3 pyramids and choose.

"I want those ones. "He said.

"Which one are you talking about, can you just list them out. "The god said.

"I choose Synthesis, Sand reanimation, Soul harvest, and power grab. "Kyle said.

"Why would you choose those abilities. "God asked why one of the followers of the god looked at him with a questioning gaze, as for Anubis, the right hand man had chose to resign to fate, he was already expecting another surprise from Kyle.

"The question should be why won't I, these are the abilities that are meant to be chosen, after all nobody has this abilities, so that act as a surprise for them, with the synthesis I could just be forming abilities over abilities, nobody will know that I am not following the same path as them, I will have my own personal army, which will reduce the chance of me relating with any person, at least with my own army it will be hard for me to be killed, I would survive far longer than your other warriors. "Kyle said.

"But this abilities are too what is the word... Yes they are too unique, it is hard to level this ability or get use to it, pls don't tell me you are still planning on taking your life. "God said.

"No. Why would I do that, after all we have come to an agreement, and an agreement is like a promise. "Kyle said.

"So pls tell me what you are planning on doing with this abilities because I can't understand you no more, since the time I have summon your soul, you have been contradicting everything a normal person is supposed to do, so pls tell me your plan. "The god said.

"As I said before, you still don't know the potentials of this abilities. Let me put it in simple terms I don't want to die without gaining my wish, so I need all the help I can get, and this abilities are the help that I need. because with this a abilities I could ensure my survival to a certain degree. And this is what I need to survive in your world, so just trust me, if you don't trust me, then trust the thing you see in me. "Kyle said refusing to divulge his reason, only him know the reason he chose the abilities.

Abilities like dust revival was one of the most metal ability use by the very strong vampire kind which make them almost immortal, with this ability he was sure to be able to live as long as a part of him remain, whether his blood, his heart, or even his bones, he could almost see it when his enemies have let their guard down, he will come from their back and end them, it may make him look as if he don't have any honor, but what will having honor fo for him when he is dead.

At this time, the G.O.S finally spoke.

"Even if I agree to give you those abilities and comply with your decision, are you forgetting that I said you are only allowed to choose 3 divine abilities. Not more than that. "The god said.

To his reply, Kyle asked him a question.

"Are you sure you guys want to win the war against the other factions, are you stupid, I thought the god of sand aka embodiment was smart, don't you know that the other member and the other faction member may have given their warrior more weapons to improve their chance of winning, so who am I not to join the crowd of cheaters, so what do you say. "Kyle said.

"I understand, but let me give you a warning, don't think because I need you means I cannot torture you here, I could put you outside this zone, so your soul would be under a huge torment from the abyss for a million times and that will be under one minute. So don't think that because I am talking to you like a reasonable person, means that I don't have the pride we god have. "The G.O.S said with the same relaxed expression but this time he release a tiny part of his aura on Kyle body for a second and quickly retrieve it back.

That tiny bit of aura that only last a second have tear Kyle body to pieces and form it back hundred of time in that second. Kyle shuddered at the pain he felt under the last second.

"I apologize for the offense, but think about it. If the commanders are already in the 1st stage of the emerald domain, just imagine the level they will be if we continue playing by the rules and keep dieing at their hand, not talking of the level the mysterious entity is on, I am very sure I am not the only one thinking about it like this. So do you really believe that the other god are going to keep their words when a time bombed is ticking? And the answer is no, I am very sure they would have given their warrior five or six just to increase the winning chance. Even though you have your faction the most contribution will go to the god the warrior kill the evil entity. And that will bring more fame to the God's name, increasing his followers and making him more powerful. All I am asking for is just four abilities, or is that too much for a great god like you to give, don't tell me you will keep your word pact when everyone else have broken it? so do you get what I am saying? "Kyle asked.

Kyle explained his reason for his offense, and his reason convince the G.O.S to agree.

This was also a great opportunity for having one up on all the other gods. But he looked at Kyle and said.

"Three should be the maximum amount of divine abilities you should be able to choose but because of the torture of your soul in my hand, I believe you can handle one more. Because this abilities will be linked to your Soul and will need a fraction of your soul to keep functioning. If you reach Theseus I am almost sure you will be part of the people with the strongest soul, but still with that your soul will get stronger so as to lessen the burden the divine abilities are doing on it. Since I am connected with the god of souls and death, I know somethings. I am sure they will give their warriors 5 or 6 divine abilities. "G.O.S Said with the same faceless face, but you could tell he was happy about something.

"Fine I agree, you can have four of these. As god of sand finish talking the four strange pyramids dissolve into sand particles and from it four orb flew out, attaching themselves to Kyle soul.
