Hero of Darkness

Chapter 801 The Sage

Rathnaar revealed the unique Ancient Rank class achieved by Vildred which made him the strongest Magician back in the day when he was at his peak.

Sage of Preservation.

Just the name of this class was something that made Kahn feel amazed. Because so far, he had seen only 3 individuals with an ancient rank class.

First being his sweetheart Kassandra Mikealson, who had the Deity Summoner class. She was an absolute beast who could use the skills and abilities of 3 different classes namely Magician, Summoner and Enchantress. A powerhouse that could absolutely wreak havoc on the world when she grew up stronger.

Second being Blackwall who had the Abyss Knight class which made him absolutely unkillable and probably the best tank in the world at the moment after his rank up and gaining Cthulhuʼs abilities.

And third being Vildred himself.

Given how the first two classes were extremely top of their field and undeniably unrivaled by everyone else… Kahn was already certain that Vildred would be no different.

[He was the best of the best and basically had a lot of extensive knowledge about ancient spells and everything else related to magic.] revealed Rathnaar.

”How do you think I knew a spell made by an ancient Deity?” asked Vildred, shamelessly gloating since he could hear both Rathnaar and Kahnʼs thoughts even without any restrictions due to the pact they made.

”How do you think I easily performed the Contract of Familiarity, which would take others days, within a few minutes?” he asked again, as if saying ʼWorship me, plebeiansʼ.

”If the Commandment of Fellowship wasnʼt imprinted on my soul itself, which no one can actively change, sealing my ability to break the spell… I wouldʼve freed myself a thousand years ago already.” he said in a magnanimous tone.

”Tch! But you still got caught unprepared and trapped inside that formation, didnʼt you?

Whatʼs there to gloat about falling for such a petty ambush?” asked Kahn, ending Vildredʼs parade of shameless boasting.

”So what does this class do to make you so special?” he queried openly.

”Why donʼt you let that thing inside your head tell you?” asked Vildred with a devilish smile.

Vildred… had found out about the existence of the System.

----------------

Kahn swallowed this fact in a few seconds. Naturally, he was prepared for revealing the Systemʼs existence to Vildred in the future. But to think that the latter found it on his own was simply shocking.

[Following are the effects of the ancient rank class Sage of Preservation :

Overlord of Magic (Legendary Rank) (Passive) :

The user has an extensive affinity with mana and world energy and possesses the ability to command all free and unused mana and world energy in the surrounding 10 kilometers at will.

----------------

Worldʼs Chosen (Legendary Rank) (Passive) :

All skills, spells and formations cast by the user will have an automatic increase in efficiency, range and damage output by 500%.

Userʼs mana will be increased by 5 times with each increase in ranks, making the user possess 5 times more reserves and potency in terms of mana and world energy usage capacity.

----------------

Sovereign of Recreation (Ancient Rank) (Passive) :

Grants the user the ability to destroy and recreate as well as restructure mana and world energy at an atomic level.

The caster shall possess an extremely profound understanding of all the spells and formations that he casts and learns with the increase in their mastery, eventually elevating those spells and formations to a higher rank compared to those cast by others of the same level as the user.

----------------

Note : This class effect can be overcome only by spells made by a Deity related to the magic class.] reported the system.

”What the… and I thought I was supposed to be a living hack with cheat codes called the Divine Abilities.

Why the hell does he have so many OP passive abilities that people would kill for?!” exclaimed Kahn after processing the information.

Kahn understood very clearly why even someone like Rathnaar acknowledged Vildred as a worthy rival and why the summoned Heroes of the past were afraid of Vildred despite having multiple divine abilities.

If Rathnaar was a badass among badasses, the kind who was feared by the entire world…

Vildred wasnʼt also behind him when he was only comparable to an 8th stage saint.

If he was a 9th stage saint at that point… nobody in the world would dare to say that he wasnʼt comparable to a Peak Saint himself.

This was the truth that Kahn had to accept if he wanted to travel along with Vildred and fulfill their secret promise which they made while making the Contract of Familiarity.

”Alright, letʼs leave.”

----------------

Swoom!

Swoom!

All of their figures reappeared on the circular platform in front of the supreme dungeon aka the Immortal Dungeon, ending their long journey as bright sunlight shone on their bodies.

Kahn and the crew finally left the Immortal Dungeon after close to spending 2 months inside.

As soon as their figures reappeared at the platform outside, Vildred quickly cast a barrier with just a thought, making them invisible and unable to be sensed by anyone as if they never existed.

Both Aragorn and Ceril on the other end were left speechless.

”Thatʼs Mind Chanting!” exclaimed Ceril in disbelief.

”Whatʼs that? Whatʼs so special about it?” asked Kahn.

”Itʼs something impossible to achieve by mages and enchanters. Only a Sage with 5 Enlightenments in magic can do it.” explained Ceril, his tone filled with respect and awe.

”They donʼt need to chant spells or even use their scepters to cast a spell, formation or a barrier. Everything can be done without even speaking a single word.” iterated Aragorn while gazing at Vildred with vehement eyes.

Even he couldnʼt help be give a worshiping look at the Sage of Preservation despite being a prince of the empire.

[This thing is different from casting a Domain that uses oneʼs elemental affinity and world energy.

Itʼs peak-level magic mastery. Extremely formidable. Thatʼs why even I had trouble fighting Vildred back in the day.

Because you could never predict what kind of spell, barrier or formation he would use next.] explained Rathnaar.

And now that Kahn knew the effects of Sage of Preservation class… he was thanking his luck that Vildred was no longer an enemy.

Because in simple words… it was as if Vildred was commanding the mana and world energy in the surroundings to work at his will.

At this moment, Vildred spoke…

”Although I canʼt use my domain anymore since my rank and levels are bound to yours, this much is nothing worth mentioning.”

The scholarly aura emanated from his body as he did not hide his supremacy in commanding magic.

Both Ceril and Aragorn were gritting their teeth in annoyance.

This guy was acting so casually about it while flexing his absolute dominance over mana and world energy, something all magic class related individuals wished to achieve in their lives.

Kahn too had a gloomy expression.

As if having Rathnaar wasnʼt enough… now they had another old Grandpa in their group who was also a Serial Flexer.

But the next moment…

Suddenly, Kahn received a set of information from his doppelgangers. He was shocked to his core and shouted in rage.

”Motherfuckers! What the actual fuck!”
