Chapter 260: Point Allocation Evolution, Illuminated King’s Protection
If a demigod-level enemy were to appear...
Sterl recalled the strange vertical pupil he had encountered in the Trial of the Brave. He might not necessarily lose against a demigod, but it was also very possible that he could be killed in an instant. He needed to grow stronger; otherwise, he would be consumed by anxiety.
As for if a god really came to seize the guild...
Sterl would have to abandon all the guild members, including Sosia and Sonis, and focus on surviving for the time being, seeking revenge later. After all, as the guild leader, he had never revealed himself. Even if a god tried to take over the guild, they wouldn't be able to. Without the guild leader's consent, the guild authority couldn't be transferred.
While Sterl was deep in thought, he suddenly sensed two sweet fragrances wafting toward him...
It was Sosia and Sonis, the sisters, who had come closer.
"My lord, you've worked hard."
Their eyes were filled with tenderness.
At that moment, Sterl remembered the dancer he had missed out on in the Principality of Florence, and a rush of blood surged through him. Without a second thought, he pushed both of them down beneath him.
"Wow!"
"Wait!"
"Don't!"
The two sisters understood very well what it meant to "show reluctance while still being welcoming." Their words were filled with pleas, yet they only ignited Sterl's desires even more.
He threw Sosia against the wall, then stepped forward, wrapping one arm around the girl's waist and gripping her neck with the other, entering her in the most forceful manner.
Even in such a semi-asphyxiated state, Sosia managed to tighten her lower body, providing Sterl with a wave of pleasure. Meanwhile, Sonis clung to Sterl from behind, forming a sandwich with the three of them.
Although it seemed like Sterl was wildly dominating the situation, Sosia was quickly twisting her waist, allowing him to enjoy himself immensely.
"Uuu~~~"
About half an hour later, Sosia collapsed weakly.
On the side, Sonis couldn't wait any longer. She pushed Sterl down onto the ground and straddled him. From Sterl's perspective, all he could see was the graceful undulation of Sonis's waist as she moved, her alluring curves shaking, captivating him completely.
Meanwhile, the seemingly utterly exhausted Sosia was feeling her way back to Sterl, actively kissing him.
As Sterl reveled in the service of the two beautiful girls, he soon trembled all over, blissfully closing his eyes.
Then, he continued to engage passionately with Sonis. Once Sosia regained some strength, she left the room.
Before long, as Sonis was crying out in desperation, "I really can't take it anymore!"
"Spare me! Spare me!"
At that moment, Sosia returned at last. She brought several plates of prepared meals, using various rare ingredients that required contribution points to exchange. The plates were filled with vibrant, exotic vegetables, along with the silvery, jade-like flesh of creatures that Sterl could not recognize at all.
The cooking was quite impressive, with an incredibly rich aroma wafting through the air. Sosia smiled shyly and said, "I added some supplements to it."
"Sounds good, let me try," Sterl replied as he vigorously thrust his hips. He
had pinned Sonis down to the ground, rapidly thrusting in and out.
Even though the girl was saying that she couldn't take it anymore, she was eagerly arching her back to meet his movements, enhancing Sterl's pleasure even more.
At that moment, Sosia sat gracefully beside them, elegantly taking out a spoon. "Master, please enjoy." Her demeanor was so poised and refined that anyone could see she was extraordinary. The only problem was that Sosia was completely naked at that moment...
Sosia slowly fed Sterl, and during this time, Sonis had already trembled several times, losing herself in the moment.
When it was finally Sosia's turn to feed her, Sonis had almost completely lost consciousness. Meanwhile, after consuming some supplements, Sterl felt an undeniable urge to release again and pinned Sosia down once more.
"Master... please... wait..." The girl pretended to struggle, but this time, Sosia played a clever trick. As Sterl exerted himself, she hooked her thigh around his waist and pushed upward with all her strength. The two instantly became one...
"Ah~" Sterl couldn't help but let out a soft moan. They really knew how to play... these sisters...
...
After another round of blissful chaos, Sterl carried the now unconscious sisters back to the bedroom. The next few days turned into a delightful vacation for him.
He first engaged in some training; Sterl effortlessly consumed all of his experience points, finally reaching level 99!
He only needed the experience required to advance 20 levels after entering the second class and the massive amount of experience needed to go from level 99 to 100 to reach third class.
Sterl discovered that the experience required for this final level before advancing to third class was enormous, almost more than the total of the first ten levels combined.
He casually inquired about it with Sosia and Sonis, learning that the experience needed to break through to the first level of third class wasn't quite as outrageous.
However, the requirements for advancing through the ranks afterward—from legend to demigod, and from demigod to god—would require vast amounts of experience.
In addition to leveling up, Sterl continued to grasp Arcane Law, advancing his proficiency in arcane skills.
He had almost mastered Arcane Law and was close to successfully practicing it.
As for arcane skills, he would be able to enter the next phase and allocate points immediately after breaking through to third class.
During this vacation period, Sterl's most significant improvement came from utilizing his cheat. He finally had time to enhance all the resources he had accumulated earlier.
After the first day, which consisted of a fierce battle with Sosia and Sonis, an hour passed, and his ability to allocate points was cooling down.
Sterl enhanced the Heavenly Fragrant Jade Essence (rare item) gifted by the royal family of the Principality of Florence. Its original effect was to cleanse the marrow and strengthen all attributes by a certain amount.
After one point allocation, this peculiar jade transformed into a lump of translucent soft jade, reminiscent of jelly in texture.
[Heavenly Fragrant Jade Essence]
[Description: A specialty from the Principality of Florence, available only in extremely limited quantities each year for royal use. The Heavenly Fragrant Jade Essence is the most valuable among all jade essences, typically produced once every ten thousand years. In reality, there has never been a recorded instance of the Principality of Florence excavating Heavenly Fragrant Jade Essence.]
[Effect: Upon consumption, it achieves the effect of cleansing the marrow and purging impurities from the body. Depending on the race, it can enhance various fixed attribute values.]
After allocation, the effect was significantly enhanced, changing from a certain number of bonus attributes to fixed bonuses, indicating that the cleansing effect had been maximized in one go.
With the attribute values raised to their limits, wasn't that a fixed value?
Without hesitation, Sterl consumed the lump of soft jade. Soon, he felt a cool sensation spreading from within his body, ultimately transforming into strands of energy that surged throughout him.
He did not experience the typical pain associated with a power boost; instead, it felt as if all his pores had opened, allowing him to breathe in the natural spiritual energy around him. If he had to describe it in one word, it would be "transparent," extremely transparent.
However, when he opened his eyes, he discovered something unsettling.
Crack, crack, crack.
Every time he moved, a fragile shell formed around his body shattered continuously. Eventually, what fell away was a hard shell made of black, sludge-like filth. Sterl could smell an overwhelmingly foul odor even from where he stood.
He frowned and immediately spent 100 ordinary contribution points to select a cleaning service for a room. To be honest, the price was a bit steep, but Sterl didn't want Sosia and Sonis to deal with such disgusting things on his behalf.
He took a shower and then opened his panel, and as expected, he received a notification.
Based on your racial bloodline enhancement, you have completed the marrow cleansing. All attributes increased by 80 points.
"Not bad..."
Sterl nodded, feeling even more relaxed and comfortable in the bathtub. The increase in basic attributes meant that each point could translate into significant combat power in actual battles!
Victory!
The commotion he caused also roused Sosia and Sonis from their slumber. The two sisters looked at their master with a hint of grievance, then mentioned that they needed to attend to guild matters. After all, they still had to handle the betrayal from earlier and ensure those responsible paid dearly.
At this moment, Sterl called out to them and directly poured out all the spoils he had collected from the previous demon hunts and a series of other chaotic events.
Looking at the ground covered in various dazzling lights, including numerous legendary equipment and purple and gold skill books, the two sisters were momentarily stunned.
However, they were not particularly surprised; after all, their master had already demonstrated combat power at the demigod level. Collecting such resources was a piece of cake for him!
"We will certainly not let you down and will take care of these materials properly," they promised.
Sterl nodded in response. "You can go ahead with your tasks. Just help me find equipment of diamond quality or higher that is suitable for the third class. Also, if you come across any good recovery potions, please bring those back too. Valuable consumables are always welcome."
"Additionally, it would be good to acquire some talismans."
After giving these instructions, Sosia and Sonis stored the various materials in their inventory and hurried off to get things done.
...
The next day, Sterl allocated points to the Armor of the Great Demon. After the allocation, the attribute boost was not significant; it only increased from a 1.5 times effect for the parasitic equipment to a 1.6 times effect, and the skill bonus remained unchanged.
However, the side effects were greatly reduced. When wearing this equipment, it would no longer continuously drain his health, and the revival effect upon death could activate normally. Only if Sterl had no means of resurrection—meaning if he died for real—would a Great Demon be born from his corpse.
But that didn't matter to him. Sterl thought that if he was dead, it didn't matter if a demon appeared; he could even destroy the world if he wanted to!
