[Bonus chapter thanks to chronotitan <3 Those with such domineering names are always overcompensating for something] Sylas exhaled a breath, looking down at his body and the power he felt rolling through it.
This almost felt ridiculous.
It was his first attempt, and he hadn't even truly succeeded yet. His goal was to try and use his F-Grade Armor as a boost to get his E-Grade Armor to Breath Mastery instantly, but he had fallen short.
And yet, the strength of his F-Grade Armor had doubled instantly.
The gap between it and his E-Grade Armor as a shroud was ridiculous. If he managed to get it to Breath Mastery, what would happen? A three-times increase? More than that?
And what if you were stacking more than just one Armor? What if he managed to get his E-Grade Armor to 100% Mastery and then stacked his D-Grade Armor on top of that?
Would there be an exponential effect? How much more powerful would he be?
The most shocking part of it all was just how little pressure there was on his mind and Will right now. It was like the brunt of it all was being mostly offloaded onto his Gene.
Whereas in the past he would feel his Will being rapidly sapped away using such a powerful Rune Armor, right now he couldn't feel freer even if he tried. It was like the world was massaging him.
This must be it… that feeling… that feeling of power being born into a strong Clan with a strong foundation gave you… This was how easily power was supposed to come to you.
'This should be a secret method of the Emperor Sanctum…' Sylas deduced.
In that case, they were even more powerful than he thought.
The Emperor Armor, on the low end, would easily be at least 50 times stronger than the Warlord Armor.
Sylas had only formed it briefly, but it was his at the time. He was more familiar with it than anyone, including the rat who stole the Gene from him.
That was to say that if Sylas had managed to take in the Legendary Gene back then, the power of the Armor he would form would have been at 500 million additional Physical stat points.
If you doubled that, you would be at a billion. Simply cartoonish numbers—stats so powerful it was hard to fathom—and the sort of thing that would likely allow him to fight D-tiers head to head rather than having to scheme against them like he had to gain his now-erased King Slayer Title.
Or would adding an E-Grade Emperor Scorpion Armor to his F-Grade Emperor Scorpion Armor be even greater than just that?
Sylas looked at his palm and clenched it.
His Armor shattered to pieces, falling to the ground in a sprinkle that vanished into the ether.
The pressure on the world around him finally faded as he turned to leave the inner sanctuary.
As he did so, stepping out into the world again, he found several gazes of Scorpion Lineage Disciples staring at him.
This library was actually a public place, and the location Sylas had been in was one of the higher-class training rooms for the E-tier disciples.
