[More information on attribute abilities: These are abilities that come from your Attributes.
Usually Attributes are passive. This is not because they don\'t have an active ability but because one\'s soul core is already occupied with the essence of talent, therefore leaves not much room for Attributes to actualize their active abilities.
However, you are without a soul core and talent, you have plenty of room in your soul to actualize your Attribute abilities. When you become a drifter, Attributes abilities fully form in your soul]
[Owned Items]: [Mortal Blade], [Eternal Twilight], [Silver Sword], [Death glare] and 24 others.
[You have received the second Vestige of the Chaos Prince: Vestige of Void]
[You have gained three new attributes]
[Attribute: Vestige of Chaos has merged with its other half].
[Attribute: Vestige of Chaos and Void has evolved to a new rank]
[Attributes gained have been reduced to two]
Northern lounged lazily on the massive, opulent throne.
Its expansive width allowed him to stretch out, resting his head on one armrest while draping his legs over the other.
Seated upon such a magnifying chair, the dancing black flames surrounding him imbued a sense of regal power.
Perhaps even more than a mere king...
\'Ah ah... very funny. I don\'t see myself as that type,\' he dismissed the thought with a soft chuckle.
Night Terror\'s tale was enough to instill a fear of such lofty positions.
They offered immense power, seductively whispering for one to seek more until greed consumed and drove them to insanity.
\'I think I\'m the kind who loves being free from a leader\'s burdens. Not that I enjoy being led either. The path of a loner seems preferable...\'
It wasn\'t as if he excelled at relating with others to begin with.
The friends he socialized with in his past life had approached him first.
When he was Elliot, Northern was merely a bookish nerd, singularly focused on becoming the best through study alone.
"And all that was for what... to foolishly fall for the wrong person, only to be used and discarded," he whispered somberly.
\'It\'s been a while since I even dwelled on that.\' A faint smile graced his lips. \'The past is behind me... let\'s strive to do better this time. For now, I want to investigate the extent of my newfound strength.\' An eager grin split his face.
Northern sat up, crossed his legs and leaned towards the holographic panel, staring intently for a few moments.
\'I see... so Night Terror absorbed the Vestige\'s Attributes: Vestige of Chaos and Void, Chaos Thread, and Flames of Chaos.\'
He studied the information intensely:
[Attributes]
Name: [Flames of Chaos]
Rank: [Divine]
Description: [An ever-burning flame resides within your soul, capable of searing away inconsistencies and irregularities. Due to these ceaseless Flames, your soul can never be harmed or consumed.]
Passive Abilities: [Soul Damage Resistance], [Mind Attack Resistance]
Active Abilities: [Black Flame], [Flame Lance]
A torrent of joy flooded Northern\'s being as he absorbed the words. He had gained resistance against the two threats that vexed him most - soul damage and mental attacks?!
\'Damn! This is getting exciting!\'
Those vulnerabilities were now eliminated from the equation.
\'Damn Night Terror, so this is why you were so arduous to kill?\' Northern mused.
Despite using Soul Taker, the stalwart monster persevered for an unexpectedly prolonged period.
Even at the end, attacking its soul proved ineffective in delivering a deathblow.
Initially, Northern assumed this was because he was a walker. But now, he considered the possibility that its resistance to soul assaults played a pivotal role.
After all, he needn\'t actively engage the skill, nor meet prerequisites as with [Mortal Blade].
\'It\'s amazing... truly amazing,\' he smiled contentedly, continuing his study.
Name: [Chaos Thread]
Rank: [Mystic]
Description: [The indestructible strings of chaos itself hold your body together, ever vigilant to restitch torn flesh and tissue.]
This part was devoid of passive or active abilities akin to [Flames of Chaos], and Northern could surmise the reason.
\'Since it\'s an attribute with only one passive ability... the description covers all that needs conveying.\'
He paused, silent contemplation reigning for a few heartbeats.
\'So, does that mean this is the healing ability I\'ve yearned desperately for?\'
As the realization belatedly settled in, his laughter echoed through the hollow hall.
"Ah! Yes! Finally!!"
He eagerly went on to the next panel:
Name: [Vestige of Chaos and Void]
Rank: [Abysmal]
Description: [The Chaos Prince began to dive into the... he discovered... and... not... much... he...]
Northern\'s brow arched inquisitively as he stared at the fragmented description.
\'What\'s with this garbled passage? Why is it so incoherent?\'
He scrutinized it fruitlessly for several moments before accepting its immutable state and proceeding.
\'At least it lists passive and active abilities.\'
Passive Abilities: [Void], [Chaos]
Active Abilities: [Void], [Chaos]
\'Quite confusing...\'
With a puzzled expression, Northern commanded the system to reveal further details.
A new panel materialized, displaying:
Name: [Void]
Type: Passive
Description: [Void consumes the souls of entities you slay.]
Name: [Chaos]
Type: Passive
Description: [Chaos is the flow of all existential forces, tamed and untamed alike. You can perceive this chaotic flow.]
Name: [Void]
Type: Active
Description: [You can choose to materialize the soul of any entity you have slain. Doing so bestows you with that soul\'s abilities.]
Name: [Chaos]
Type: Active
Description: [You can disrupt the chaotic flow sustaining any existential being\'s force. With but a snap of your fingers, you can unmake their existence or dispel their arts. However, a fatal flaw accompanies this ability.]
Flaw: [A delicate balance exists between Void and Chaos. Utilizing Void does not disturb this equilibrium. But Chaos wields tremendous power; invoking it tips the scales. If you cannot promptly restore balance after disrupting it, you may become enslaved by Chaos\' whims rather than controlling its force.]
\'In other words, the ability begins controlling me instead of the reverse,\' Northern interpreted inwardly.
