Chapter: 11
Looking at the runes explaining the Trees, Noir had an excited look on his face. After all, the first reward in the [Forbidden Tree] is the [Branch of Fate]. This in turn is the power of the Demon of Fate 'Weaver'.
Noir didn't waste any more time and quickly claimed the reward from the [Forbidden Tree]. And a voice rang in his mind.
[You have received Weaver's Sorcery: Spellweave]
Suddenly, a surge of knowledge flowed through his mind. When it stopped, Noir quickly summoned his Memory [Light Blade] and looked at it. In its body could see a complicated pattern of strings creating a weave on its sharp blade.
Strangely he could understand the complicated weave easily. He knew how it works. While Noir was looking at the sword's enchantments in his hand he was disturbed by an ominous light coming from the dark tree.
He moved the sword away and looked up at the tree which now held a black what seemed like fruit at the end of the top, smaller branch in the [Branch of Fate]. He looked at the runes again, to his surprise there were more runes explaining the [Branch of Fate].
[Branch of Fate: (1/7)
1: (Claim)
2: (Locked)
3: (Locked)
4: (Locked)
5: (Locked)
6: (Locked)
7: (Locked) ]
It was named after the tree since the Spellweave was a part of the tree.
Noir was thinking which of Weaver's belongings he could get from the [Branch of Fate]. He claimed it with excitement. And a voice rang in his ears…
[You have received a Memory: Weaver's Mask (Original)]
"What!!" Noir exclaimed with shock. 'Am I dreaming?' he thought and tried to punch his face but didn't feel anything. His immunity to pain sometimes makes things worse. He quickly shook his head and summoned the runes describing the New Memory.
Memory: [Weaver's Mask (Original)]
Memory Rank: [???].
Memory Type: Tool.
Memory tier: X.
Enchantments: [???], [???], [Better Trick], [Do I need to look Cool?], [Something Useful].
"Heh?" Noir was stupefied. 'I did know weaver had a bad Naming sense but never in my wild imagination did I ever think it would be this bad.'
'Wait a second, why the hell is there one extra enchantment. Now that I look carefully, why the f*ck is the rank unknown and what is up with this Tenth tier.' Noir started to look at the Enchantments.
The first enchantment was a passive one so he couldn't know what it was but the second was an active one. Noir summoned the memory and a cooler version of the weavers mask appeared in his hand.
Even though it was quite similar to the Divine Memory, the teeth in this Memory were flat at the same level as the other part of the mask. It also had golden patterns alongside it. Overall it met the requirement to be called 'Weaver's Original Mask'.
Noir simply activated the second enchantment and quickly deactivated it, without seeing anything. After that he summoned the runes describing the second enchantment.
[I can see this?]
Enchantment Description: "You can look at the weave of Fate."
After that he one by one looked at the other Enchantments.
[Something Useful]
Enchantment Description: "You will have a Map marking every Landmark and Good places."
[Do I need to look Cool?]
Enchantment Description: "You can use it as a Cosmetic and make it visible or invisible at any time."
[Better Trick]
Enchantment Description: "All your six senses will be enhanced by a thousand folds."
[???]
Enchantment Description: "???"
**
Noir's breathing became heavy with Excitement. 'These enchantments are almost godlike.' Then he gave a thumb up to the sky in his soul space, probably to Weaver.
Noir then started looking at the [Tree of Gods] and quickly claimed the first reward.
[You have received The War Gods Divine Battle Art: Divine Dance of War]
He happily summoned the runes explaining the [Branch of War]
[Branch of War: (1/7)
R 1: (Claim)
R 2: (Locked)
R 3: (Locked)
R 4: (Locked)
R 5: (Locked)
R 6: (Locked)
R 7: (Locked)
]
He claimed as quickly as he summoned it. And the spell spoke in his ears; to say the least the spell didn't disappoint Noir's expectation.
[You have received a Memory: Victiny.]
Noir couldn't help but think of that one little thing that always brings Victory. He didn't wait much and quickly summoned the runes.
Memory: [Victiny].
Memory Rank: Awakened.
Memory Type: Armor.
Memory tier: VI.
Memory Enchantments: [Unshaken Will], [Power of Time], [Bringer of Solace], [Way to Rise].
**
"An Armor? But I already have Cecilia's gift. I can't abandon the [Parting Gift]." When Noir was thinking which one he should consider between a normal Awakened Memory and a memory from a God. He decided to read the enchantments first before deciding. So, he summoned the runes.
[Unshaken Will]
Enchantment Description: "As long as you don't give up, your Effort will definitely bore fruit."
[Power of Time]
Enchantment Description: "The longer you wear it the stronger your Defense will be."
[Bringer of Solace]
Enchantment Description: "The wearer can decide how it will appear itself. It will be more beautiful than imagined. People looking at it and wearing it will feel an indescribable sense of calmness."
[Way to Rise]
Enchantment Description: "Soulbound initiated. Living organism Killed [0/10000]."
**
"Soulbound?! Does that mean that it will combine with me when I complete the Requirements? Then it won't be so difficult for me to benefit from both of them." Noir was happy at the thought of it.
After thinking over it he equipped [Victiny] and made it look like the academy uniform. He then decided to skip and claimed both the rewards from [Tree of Sins and Virtue] at once.
The things he received from it were a sword and a ring with a pink heart-shaped on it. He didn't receive any spell message after obtaining them. So he thought that they were out of the reach of the spell or something like that.
Even though he couldn't read their description, somehow, he knew their every single effect. The ring was called the [Symbol of Lust], and just like the name it increases your overall combat power and abilities after Intimacy. Somehow he could change its shape just like his other wearable things he possesses. So he made it into a neckband, which was black in color but had a pink heart in the middle.
And the Sword he received was named [Sword of Gluttony], and as you can guess it has an effect of increasing your power by devouring life from the enemy's you defeat. And you will only need to eat or drink when you wish to and nothing like hunger or thirst will hinder you, but the life force devoured by the sword will be used for the second effect.
After that he summoned the Weavers Mask and wore it. When he felt his body, eyes and every single sense being extremely sensitive. He could even hear, see things from miles away. And he could feel every single cell in his body, perfectly knowing their location.
After a long while getting used to the new sensation, he made it invisible.
"System, enter (Create Aspect)" he said and the system opened the section.
He quickly started to create aspects; all of them were of Divine Rank. 7 of them were aspects of the Daemons since they didn't have any aspects to their name. Not only that, he also copied the Aspects of the people he knew to have Divine aspects, He also gave them pretty strong and powerful Legacies, much stronger than the original owners could ever have. And two were named [Shadow Monarch] and [Magic Monarch].
[Shadow Monarch] was created for Jin; this one Aspect almost has everything the Second monarch ever had, every single one of them. Even if none of his copies share the same Aspect they do share the same Flaw.
And [Magic Monarch] was simply a mage who can create almost all types of magic, which he intended to give to Aura. Her Legacies were on par with Jin's Legacies or might be better, after all Noir was a pervert.
"Achoo… who TF is talking bad about me right now?" he quickly ignored it. {I shouldn't write the things in my mind. At least he didn't notice.}
Since all of Noir's preparations were finished he decided to sleep for the night.
***
When he woke up he saw a commotion in the cafeteria. He looked at the billboard hanging knowing the reason. But he also saw something which shocked him.
'1st place: Name: Nephis
True Name: Changing Star'
'2nd place: Name: Jin
Aspect Rank: Transcendent'
