It’s over.
The rope tied around Annan’s ankle to symbolize the “spider web” and “trap” had several knots frozen. They were covered with a layer of frost as they split by themselves.
The air in the room was so harsh that it would hurt the trachea by just breathing. In addition, the window was covered with a thick layer of frost traces like cracks.
Jiu Er put the honey citrus tea next to Annan previously. It was utterly frozen into popsicles. The walls were covered with centipede-like frost marks.
That power leaked from Annan’s nightmare.
“It’s so refreshing.” Annan sighed deeply.
He touched the corner of his mouth.
Previously, there was a hole, and the gums were reachable from the outside of the face. At this moment, the skin at that spot had fully recovered.
It was like the scars seared after the wild laughter. A faint smile remained on his face.
Aside from the episode where he repeatedly climbed the spider silk in the bottomless abyss, he rarely experienced such intense pleasure.
This was probably because emotions existed objectively, even though he could not feel negative emotions.
Ordinary pleasure was understood as “happy”.
However, smashing the things he disliked to pieces—even the part involving disgust and anger, Annan did not feel them at all. However, the joy brought by removing the dislike could help Annan feel his “completeness”.
What are “justice”, “protection”, and “sacrifice”?
Sacred bone?
This was the first time Annan saw similar descriptions and tooltips after purifying the nightmare.
It’s not easy…
“Is the Heart of Justice willing to admit a fanatic like me?”
However, it was not limited to Justice only.
Annan thought.
After all, he did punish the villain in the truest sense — he had not encountered such a blatant villain before since his second life.
Such behavior could indeed be referred to as justice.
“But why do Protect and Sacrifice get interested in me?” Annan was baffled.
What did I protect?
I didn’t sacrifice anything, did I?
Did I sacrifice myself, and it counted for something?
But I am a little curious… The bone of justice is the “heart”.
What about protection and sacrifice?
I wonder if I can log in to multiple sacred bones simultaneously.
“…Ugh.” Annan just wanted to sit up from the sofa when he suddenly felt dizzy.
It was not that there was something wrong with his body.
Instead, the world around him suddenly became clearer—like wearing over-prescription glasses. Annan’s brain swelled slightly due to the sudden large amount of information he received, and he could not quite adapt to it.
Is this the [Transcended Perception]?
It was not limited to his sense of touch becoming several times more sensitive.
Annan could even feel the temperature on his skin. He could feel his emotions clearly and even vaguely see the fuzzy “threads” connecting everything in front of him.
Is this the prophetic eye of the Prophet Wizard?
Annan had heard that generally speaking, the principle of Prophet Wizard’s prediction was to “know what they would know in advance”. However, a mighty Prophet Wizard could see the connection between “people” that had nothing to do with him.
It could roughly be understood as the line of cause and effect.
However, Annan did not know the scientific name nor how it worked. After all, he was not a Prophet Wizard from an academic background.
However, Annan could be certain of one thing.
His Perception attribute had reached a situation beyond his control.
If he continued to improve his perception, his will might collapse if it became less than 50 points.
Before Annan adapted to his [Transcended Perception] or until his Will attribute was also raised to the [Transcended Will], Annan did not plan to upgrade the level of “Frostwhisper” for the time being.
So he did not have choosing power in investing the attribute points.
After Annan added all five levels to the [Victory Knight], he felt his body giving out a faint, creaky sound.
It was not a painful metamorphosis.
His body was like dry soil, greedily absorbing water.
It was just not so apparent under Ghirlandaio’s disguise.
Never mind about the will strengthening; the constitution’s improvement would not be displayed in Ghirlandaio.
So, Annan’s [Victory Knight] had soared to Level 28.
It did not come entirely from the nightmare.
Instead, part of it was the reward after killing the spider.
The spider melted directly into the nightmare as Annan eradicated it, so he did not get experience points directly. Instead, they turned into “levels”, becoming part of the nightmare’s rewards.
Of course, if Annan died, the other party would get the same rich reward as Annan.
Victory Knight LV28: [Austere-Winter Swordsmanship LV10 (Max)], [Frost Sword LV10 (Max)], [Parallel Comprehension LV1], [Victory Will LV1 (Max)], [Brilliant Sword LV4], Available Skill Points 5.
On the other hand, Annan’s Constitution attribute had finally reached 47 points, and Will attribute had also gained 41 points.
After having Will attributes exceeding forty, Annan suddenly felt that the feeling of his head swelling and being groggy had greatly alleviated.
The constant influx of information into the brain had become less unbearable. Perhaps, it might be the result of the strengthening of the Constitution attribute that had made Annan’s mind clearer and firm.
The Constitution attribute close to 50 points had reached the point where the cut wound would stop bleeding immediately. The blood that flowed out probably would stay in its active state for quite a long time.
Given the passive effect of [Silver Muscle], Annan would be blessed with Constitution+5 by default when receiving an attack. However, the +5 Constitution would not grant Annan the unique “Transcended Constitution” ability. Instead, it only increased the Constitution to be more than 50.
Transcended Perception allowed Annan to get the Prophetic Eye of a Prophet Wizard in the “Ghirlandaio” state.
However, Annan did not know what Transcended Constitution and Transcended Will would bring to him when he reverted to Annan state.
However, he looked forward to it.
At this moment, Annan suddenly had a premonition that the door would be pushed open.
Sure enough, after a couple of seconds, the door of Jiu Er’s room was pushed open from the outside.
Jiu Er, holding the fruit plate, glanced at Annan sitting up. She was taken aback.
“Your Royal Highness Annan?” She said subconsciously.
Immediately, she realized that she had slipped her tongue.
Then, she quickly turned around and was relieved that no one had followed her.
Jiu Er closed the door, which gave a strange sensation due to freezing.
She did not notice the change in the room, nor did she see the frozen windows or drinks. Instead, she just felt unusually cold.
“Is it cold, Your Highness Annan?” She asked Annan curiously, “And how did you exit the nightmare so quickly?”
Jiu Er couldn’t help admiring Annan secretly.
—As expected of His Highness Annan!
He has found a way to log out of the nightmare in such a short time.
He is at least three times faster than Suuankou!
However, Annan just showed an odd grin.
“That’s incorrect. I’ve already purified the nightmare.”
