Hero of Darkness

Chapter 155: The Pathfinder

Kahn looked at Armin in disbelief after hearing the message from the system. His entire body was rooted on the spot.

His shocked & stunned countenance was clearly visible to all his subordinates.

”System, show me Arminʼs real stats & skills.” ordered Kahn.

Soul Reformation (LEGENDARY RANK) (Active) :

The subordinate can heal the damage done to anyoneʼs soul over time and even make it stronger by two times.] replied the system.

Kahn was shocked, stunned and flabbergasted. Based on the abilities alone, Armin had become a Legendary rank subordinate. Because some of his abilities had exceeded any Grandmaster rank healer, druid and even alchemist alchemists could gain.

And as per his information.. Elixir of Life, Resurrection & Soul Reformation were the type of abilities that even Saint Rank Healers didnʼt have.

If Kahn was right as per the books he read, then Resurrection was an ability only the Pope & Priestess of Churches & Religious cults had. So Armin was already comparable to them even though he wasnʼt even on their level yet.

And as his rank & levels rose, his abilities & skills would rise to a whole different level. On the same rank, those people couldnʼt even touch his shadow.

But the biggest & most unbelievable ability was the Soul Reformation.

God of Darkness had already made it clear that the more Divine Abilities one had, the more consumption of Soul Essence will be as you rose higher in Rank & Levels. And thatʼs why Kahn only chose 3 Divine Abilities at max because more would adversely affect him later.

But with Arminʼs Legendary ability.. Maybe in the future, he could handle more? And thereʼs also the effect of making your soul twice stronger & curing the damage done to it.

Although he might not be able to yield the most benefits of these abilities in his current state. But if he ever rose to the rank of a Demi-God, heʼd be a Leviathan amongst other Heroes with Arminʼs help.

Of all his Subordinates.. Armin by far had the most OP abilities. And he would definitely play a pivotal role in Kahnʼs future.

”System, how did he suddenly unlock the Pathfinder Class?” asked Kahn out of curiosity.

[The Pathfinder class is one of the most ancient and rarest class, only found in those who study and belong to Healer, Druids and Alchemy classes. The subordinate name Armin had only met the two conditions previously but after the subordinate was merged with the individual named Prithvi Aranya, the subordinate gained all the prerequisite abilities and met the requirements to invoke this class.

The host is advised to upgrade the subordinate to at least Mythical Rank to see the complete and maximum effects of this Legendary Class.]

”That I will.” spoke Kahn and nodded in approval.

All Kahn wanted to do was give Prithvi, the Grandmaster Alchemist another chance and a way to keep on living as the pitiful leshen died with nothing but regret and sadness.

His act of kindness towards a person who suffered the same fate as him, yielded an unexpected outcome.

Sometimes, being kind can also turn out to your benefit.

Although, Kahn tended to be a more cynical type of person in this new life.. His own sense of humanity & moral code yielded a reward that he would forever be grateful for.

At this moment, Armin spoke to Kahn.

”Master, the body you merged with me has too much toxicity. I will need some weeks to detox and purify it so I can function at the best of my capabilities.”

”I see. Take your time. I will call upon you when thereʼs a need for you.” replied Kahn.

Armin merged in his shadow and the other subordinates filled the grave to the state it was before.

Kahn looked at the brightly shining moon which appeared pure and pristine. The sense of achieving something for the better out of kindness was a first for him.

Kahn felt a form of peace at this moment and spoke.

”Maybe it doesnʼt hurt being a good guy once in a while..”
