Super Spark of Duper Pride [OB] - Act I: Motivation

2-6: Major Evolutionary Upgrades (Spider 38)

[Spider Thread] and [Cutting Thread] have been replaced by [Utility Thread].

It's [Spider Thread] and [Cutting Thread] combine plus new features as it levels up.

The two new Attributes I can add to my threads are Impact and Shock.

Impact is simply blunt or crushing force and Shock adds an explosive shockwave effect on hit, minus the heat and light.

Pretty cool! If only I could use thread here without [Energy Conferment].

Looks like [Poison Synthesis] levelled up and now I can add Paralysis to my Poison.

I will add it to [Weak Poison] so I can try it out without killing my next prey too quickly.

I wonder if I can use [Detection] now? I haven't tried in a long time.

Ouch ouch ouch!

Divine Voice: "Proficiency has reached the required level.

Skill [Arithmetic Proficiency LV7] has become [Arithmetic Proficiency LV8].

Proficiency has reached the required level.

Skill [Parallel Thinking LV6] has become [Parallel Thinking LV7].

Proficiency has reached the required level.

Skill [Detection LV6] has become [Detection LV7].

Proficiency has reached the required level.

Skill [Heresy Resistance LV3] has become [Heresy Resistance LV4]."

Nope! Still can't!

But I managed to last longer this time.

So I am making progress at least.

Oh, hey, I have done descaling the dragon eel.

Here's hoping it is as good as the catfish.

Bon appetit!

Num...

Eh!? Wait, where did it all go!?

All I see is the remaining bones of the dragon eel.

When did I eat the whole thing?!

Did it taste so good that I blacked out?

Damn it! How am I supposed to enjoy myself when I am not even conscious during the feast?!

I can still feel the good taste in my mouth and the satisfaction in my mind but still!

Nai wa! Sigh...

Well, that means catfishes are better even though they are technically less tasty.

Back to checking my status I guess.

Looks like [Overeating] reached LV9 after eating the dragon eel.

Wait, it's not gonna evolve into [Gluttony] next, is it?

Nai wa, I don't think I am ready for another Deadly Sin Skill yet.

Eh? Why do I have 500 Skill Points?

200 when I first evolved into a Small Poison ????????.

Spent 100 on [Pride], 20 from each level up so I should have 280 before evolving.

So I got 220 Skill Points from evolving into a ??? ???.

That's neat! Let's see what I can get.

Hm...I wonder if there is any more op nonsense like [Pride] here that's not a deadly sin?

Ah ha! [Perseverance] is one!

Appraisal-sama: < [Perseverance]: n% of the power to reach godhood.

Expands the user's Divinity Field.

As long as MP is maintained, the user will survive with 1 HP regardless of the amount of damage taken.

In addition, the user will gain the ability to surpass the W System and interfere with the MA Field. >

The main attraction is the survival with 1 HP as long as MP is maintained.

How that works exactly I don't know, but survival is my top priority so I definitely want all the help I can get!

Even if it will cost me all 500 Skill Points!

Not sure about the Divinity Field thing though.

Appraisal-sama: < Divinity Field: The deep field of a living thing's Soul. The basis of all life, as well as the self's final field of dependence. >

...Okay? So it will expand my Soul's deep field.

...Yeah, I don't get it at all.

But I don't think it's a bad thing to have.

Besides, [Perseverance] isn't a deadly sin but a...what are they called again?

An 'insert adjective here' virtue?

Anyway, I don't need to worry about [Taboo] levelling up since it ain't a sin!

[Perseverance] here we go!

Divine Voice: "Number of Skill Points currently in possession: 500

Number of Skill Points required to acquire [Perseverance]: 500

Acquire Skill?"

Yes please!

Divine Voice: "[Perseverance] acquired.

Remaining Skill Points: 0

Proficiency has reached the required level.

Skill [Taboo LV5] has become [Taboo LV7].

Condition satisfied, acquired Title [Ruler of Perseverance].

Acquired Skill [Heresy Nullification], [Conviction] as a result of Title [Ruler of Perseverance].

Skill [Heresy Resistance LV4] has been integrated into [Heresy Nullification]."

...

"Da fuck!?"

Why did [Taboo] level up!?

Isn't [Perseverance] a good thing!?

This is bad!

[Taboo] is definitely a ticking time bomb!

What will happen when it reaches LV10?!

Fuck fuck fuck!

I am scared.

It's not an instant game over, is it?

Knowing my cursed luck, it's gonna be maxed out even if I try to avoid it.

Ha ha ha! I am so screwed! Nai wa!
