Chapter 319 - Upgraded Skills

"Urg…" Groaning softly, Shiro forced her eyes open and quickly scanned the area around her.

The last thing she could remember was that she was talking to Kuromi in regards to who she could trust.

"Oh I'm still in the trial…" She muttered.

After understanding her surroundings, she glanced back at her stats to see what had changed.

Raising an eyebrow, Shiro was rather surprised at how many skills were combined and enhanced. She noticed that most of them had become EX skills.

Normally, such skills would be very rare but she guessed that this was the result of her title, Revolutionary.

"Tier 3 Element Magic, Celestial Raiment EX, Rift Strider EX, Borealis' Lance and Frenzied Incarnation EX are pretty self explanatory since they're just the enhanced forms of the base skill." Shiro muttered while having a look at the other skills.

[Sylph Queen's Domain EX]

When activated:

+100% Element Damage

+20% INT, AGI, DEX for 10 minutes

+30% Element Resistance

If the enemy element affinity is lower tier than you, it is sealed for the entire duration.

Severely reduces the effectiveness of element skills and spells of the enemy.

For the entire duration, you're able to summon the elements you control at will within the domain. You may ignite certain elements to explode.

[Monster Skill – Rejuvenation EX]

Passive Effect: Regenerate 1% of HP and MP every 10 seconds.

Active Effect: Regenerate all Damage suffered in the past 10 seconds.

Cooldown: 1 hour

[Title: Element Empress EX]

All Stats increase by 30%

+50% to Element Damage

When against a group (100+ Enemies), further receive a 50% boost to all stats

Increased Resistance to Elemental Damage

"Well damn… this is quite the upgrade." Shiro smiled in satisfaction.

With her new title, the passive bonus that she received increased from 25% to 30%. That made it so that in total, she now has a 50% bonus in stats with the help of her Revolutionary title.

Not only that, she gains another 50% if she's against more than 100 enemies.

"I've also got the Rejuvenation skill too. It's in EX form as well."

Dismissing her status board, she looked around for a way out.

Just as she thought about leaving the area, a portal opened up in front of her as she raised an eyebrow.

"Seems rather convenient." She muttered.

Narrowing her eyes, she thought for a moment before stepping through.

Raising up her hand to block the lights, she looked round.

Realising that she's back at the corridor of which she entered with the other two, Shiro wondered if they've finished their trials already.

{You're finally back my queen! I was worried when our connection was cut.} Nimue called out in worry.

'Yeah. It seems like that trial was a little special since I was able to talk to Kuromi.'

{Kuromi? Wasn't that the name of the old host?}

'Yeah. It turns out that she's still around but her soul is incomplete. Probably why I was able to take over her body.' Shiro shrugged before making her way back to their room.

Opening the door, she saw that no one was in and that there was a note on the table.

[Madi and Silvi have already finished their trials but you weren't back. We're out doing dungeons right now so we'll be back later tonight.]

"Hmm… Speaking of dungeons, I want to get myself to level 80 so that I can finally equip the orange set armour. It would prove to be very useful after all." Shiro muttered before pulling up her phone. Challenging the same dungeon as last time wouldn't be efficient since the dungeon is level 80. With only a two level difference, she wouldn't be getting as much EXP as she hoped she would.

Therefore, her best option would be to challenge a level 85 or level 90 dungeon.

{Raids can work as well.} Nimue reminded.

'True. Maybe I postpone this a little to do a raid with the entire group. Now that I think about it, I haven't been spending as much time with the party. Letting them understand how I fight would be quite beneficial in the war to come since they wouldn't' be too surprised and cause a small gap to open up in our defences.'

Settling with the idea of going to the raid as a party, Shiro started to do research on the different raids in the city.

The level of the raids averaged to around level 70 while the higher level ones that provided better gear were under the supervision of the princes. Since they're going to be moving as a group, it would be harder for them to go undetected.

While she could pull them into the Rift using Rift Strider EX, it wasn't as if the guards couldn't feel the fluctuations in mana, as proven last time.

"Even after upgrading, Rift Strider EX only gives me a better speed boost, faster entry time and bigger distance covered." Shiro frowned since it was a small dilemma that she had to sort out.

'If the third prince has a high level raid under his supervision, I might be able to use him to my advantage…'

Doing a quick search on the net, she was a little annoyed at the third prince only had raids that were level 80 or lower.

"I guess it's better than nothing…" She sighed.

Preferably, she wanted a level 85 raid so that she'll have more armour for later.

{You know, everyone else is around 10 to 15 levels behind you so they can't exactly do a level 80 raid.}

'I know. But, we're in a situation where we're against level 100's. Getting Silvia to be better at healing in tense situations, such as a high level raid, is good at preparing her for what's to come. That being said, I don't disagree with what you said since a level 80 raid is still quite risky.'

While she browsed through the list of raids and dungeons that they could do, her mind drifted to what she should do in regards to Keomi.

Now that she knew Keomi was her 'sister' and that she could get her to help, she'll have to stage a meeting where they'll coincidently meet.

*Sigh…

"Troublesome… I need a way to convince her that is amnesia. Not only that, I have to make sure she isn't too suspicious or it would be annoying."

{You can do it my queen.}

"Of course I can."
