Chapter 473 Fledgling Aether Terror!

Back in the dwelling that Noah's Ancient Blood Clone was staying at in the Verittas Fortress, he was looking at the advancement of the skill tree that stemmed from [Lesser Cthulhu]. It was the skill tree that made many of the things he had at this moment possible, being the one that opened the doorway for him to become an Infernal Lord!

After Kin of Terror, the next name that came with 4 new abilities was termed [Fledgling Aether Terror]! The other skill tree that he could have chosen from was something called [Devouring Aether Beast], but he stuck to the names that continued to lead towards the terrifying being that he only knew from his memories. The abilities of [Fledgling Aether Terror] did not disappoint.

DOMAIN [Amorphous s.p.a.ce Beast] (15/15) :: Abilities- Spatial Cage(5/5), Destabilize(5/5), Shattered Star(5/5), and Miniature s.p.a.ce(5/5). >> [Lesser Cthulhu] (45/45) :: Additional Abilities- Morph(5/5), Child of s.p.a.ce(5/5), Portals of Terror(5/5), and Sever(5/5). >> [Kin of Terror] (60/60) :: Additional Abilities- Aether Reinforcement (5/5), Multiplicative Ray Support (5/5), Triple on Cast Support (5/5), Lunacy Inducement (5/5) >> [Fledgling Aether Terror] (75/75) :: Additional Abilities- Aether Emission (5/5), Aether Chain Support (5/5), Fatal Ailment Support (5/5), Size Distortion (5/5)

Aether Emission (5/5) :: The body of the Fledgling Aether Terror pa.s.sively emits the baleful energies of Aether. This ability also allows the boosts of [Aether Reinforcement] to apply to any skills used by the Fledgling Aether Terror.

Aether Chain Support (5/5) :: The Aether Rays emitted by the Fledgling Aether Terror can chain between selected enemies. Supported ray-based abilities can chain +10 times

Fatal Ailment Support (5/5) :: The essence of Aether is destructive by nature, causing chaos in the body of those affected. All abilities preceding and following the Fledgling Aether Terror skill tree deal an additional 70% damage over time as Aether continues to cause chaos in their bodies.

Size Distortion (5/5) :: Striving for unmatched strength, the body of the Fledgling Aether Terror can be expanded up to 250 meters.

As soon as Noah finished placing all the required Infernal Skill Points into the newly opened Fledgling Aether Terror skill tree, he felt his already strong body rumble with power as the energy of Aether leaked freely from him!

WAA!

The baleful energy caused the air to scream as those within the grand castle he was situated in also felt an oppressive aura of energy coming from the location where an Infernal Lord was residing, their faces actually filling up with happiness as they sensed this fearsome power, as it actually brought them comfort when they thought about the coming enemies.

Noah reeled in the Aether to only stay within a meter around him as it seemed to just continue expanding, his gaze going towards the additional skills after this skill tree was brought up to the Domain Rank.

The [Aether Emission] was what explained what just occurred with his body, so he moved on directly to the skills that had 'Support' attached to them as he was coming to particularly love these types of skills more and more.

Those with the addition of 'Support' always enhanced his current abilities to even greater heights, not simply adding more and more skills for him to try and keep track of and maybe not even use as time pa.s.sed.

The two support abilities this time were [Aether Chain Support] and [Fatal Ailment Support]! The former made it so that when he released the numerous rays of Aether through [Sever] that was already enhanced by [Multiplicative Ray Support], these Aether rays would actually chain between the bodies of up to 10 enemies!

This caused for a shocking lethality as the rays of Aether were already destructive enough, but were now made even more insane. The [Fatal Ailment Support] was another unique support skill that was equivalent to poisoning any being he hit with abilities from this skill tree as they would suffer damage over time. This damage over time would continue until their death or if they somehow had the means to purify the baleful energy of Aether from their bodies. Again, it simply made his abilities all the more terrifying!

This was the reason why he particularly loved skill trees, and would continue to pursue them to their peak until he saw just how crazy all of these abilities could become.

The last skill was a simple one, [Size Distortion] allowing him to expand his size to actually become 5 times the normal mountainous size of Behemoths. It granted him the ability to expand up to 250 meters! It was ridiculous to even imagine his size larger than the Behemoths he was fighting, so he was excited to try this ability in the coming battle when he faced hundreds of thousands of enemies.

As his thoughts were coming to a close, he received a message from the Spiritual World System.

[Master, the Hydromancer's Mantle Supreme Treasure has finished being forged.]

The sweet words of even more spectacular things occurring rang in his eyes as his figure disappeared into the miniaturized Spiritual World and went directly towards the Blacksmith's Forge.

Inside the expansive Forge that was now much bigger than when he first entered it, there were numerous s.h.i.+ning armors and weapons that were beautifully placed on the walls of the Forge.

The Items forged from the materials of Infernals and Behemoths that were not yet distributed to his subordinates were all grandly displayed in the Forge, the workshop turning into a brilliant showcase of powerful armors as Noah went towards the one that shone with a luminescent blue brilliance.

The [Hydromancer's Mantle] looked like a blue battle robe that fully covered the wearer from head to toe, even having a fearsome looking helm with a design only veteran commanders would be adorned in. Blue runic sigils swam around the Mantle mystically as it gave off a feeling of power and strength!

Noah's eyes shone as he neared the [Hydromancer's Mantle] to take a look at exactly what abilities and boosts it provided. Would it be as crazy as the Trident of the Sea, or something even more wondrous?
