==[Predation has been activated.
Target: Death’s Achilles Tendon
Time applied: 24 hours
Effect 1: Create Weakness
Create a weakness to gain tremendous strength. However, the user will gain the strength while Death’s Achilles Tendon will shoulder the weakness.
You can create 1 of the 3 weaknesses below.
Slight Weakness: (After creating this weakness, Death’s Achilles Tendon must recover and cannot be Consumed again for 10 days.)
Increase Stats by 10,000 points
Increase CRIT rate by 5%, increase CRIT damage by 500%
Serious Weakness: (After creating this weakness, Death’s Achilles Tendon must recover and cannot be Consumed again for 20 days.)
Increase Stats by 20,000 points
Increase CRIT rate by 10%, increase CRIT damage by 1000%
Critical Weakness: (After creating this weakness, Death’s Achilles Tendon must recover and cannot be Consumed again for 30 days.)
Increase Stats by 30,000 points
Increase CRIT rate by 15%, increase CRIT damage by 1500%
Effect 2: Death’s Harrier
Death has possessed Achilles Tendon, but Achilles Tendon cannot contain all of Death. Death’s leaking aura has enveloped Achilles Tendon and a new ability is born.
For 24 hours, your attacks will carry a deathly energy and have a chance to drain enemies’ Stat points.
Cooldown: 30 days.]==
“…” I hadn’t used Predation on Death’s Achilles Tendon because I expected to get much out of it; I just didn’t want to look at it anymore. But it turns out it had become an amazing weapon. I had nothing to lose from either effect.
“Activate: Create Critical Weakness.” I had just Consumed Death’s Achilles Tendon, so Predation was still in effect. I had to see how much stronger I could become by using the third Weakness.
==[Create Critical Weakness has been activated.

“Activate: Death’s Harrier.” I was more curious about this one.

With both abilities activated, I took out the Werewolf Clan Badge out from my inventory. The Troll Dungeon was the one place I could quickly get to and hunt monsters.
“Teleport: Faroe Islands.” I was moved to the Werewolf Clan’s home in a single second.
“Mr. Lee? What’s brings you all the way here?” A couple of Werewolf guards greeted me as soon as they saw me, but I didn’t have time to explain to them. Both abilities only lasted 24 hours, and I had to wait 30 days before I could use them again.
“I just wanted to do some hunting. Blink 1. Blink 2.” I Blinked away after leaving them with a short explanation and quickly arrived at the Troll Dungeon. Once I arrived, I headed inside right away. “Mana Conversion – Ice. Warrior’s Brave Spirit. Howl of the Wolf.” I activated my combat buffs like always and charged at a horde of Trolls.
“Gwah!” Even though it was a critical hit, a single attack was enough to kill the Troll Warrior before me. Troll monsters were the most unpopular type of monsters out there because of their high HP and high HP regen. They could be considered tank-type monsters, but that didn’t mean their attack power was at all weak. Trolls on the second and third floors also traveled in hordes of fifty-plus. These Trolls could be considered the more dangerous dungeon monsters and as such, the Werewolves rarely ever came to this dungeon level to train. Even I favored other high-grade dungeons more than this one. But if I could kill a Troll in one or two hits, then it didn’t matter where I hunted anymore.
After I cut down about eleven Troll Warriors, a message appeared.
==[You have obtained 3 Stat points from a Troll Warrior cursed by Death.]==
I smiled. There was a chance I could get more than 3 Stat points and I swung my spear at the Trolls with vigor. All of my Stats were now increased by 30,000 points. My CRIT damage was raised by 1,500%. No Troll could stand in my way. It didn’t take long for me to clear most of the first floor of Trolls.
As I hunted, I started to think back on the Defense Quest and how all those monsters just poured out of that door. “Were there always this few monsters?” It was the first time I felt this way. I didn’t like how it took more time to find monsters than to kill them. I quickly cleared through the second, third and fourth floors, and even made it to the fifth floor.
I kept receiving the same type of messages as I cut through the Trolls. I got a message after every thirty monsters I killed, getting at least 1 Stat point and up to 5. The chance of draining Stat points wasn’t particularly high, but I didn’t care, not with how fast I was killing the monsters.
The fifth floor had hordes of over a hundred Trolls, but it made no difference to me.
“Kill! Kill the human!”
“Attack!”
“Weaken!”
“Slow!”
To any other normal deva, this giant horde of Troll Warriors, Troll Mages, and Troll Champions was extremely dangerous. These Trolls had higher intelligence than the Trolls of the higher floors, and were able to form strategies.
But I was no ordinary deva. I was immune to their Slow and Weaken. Not only was my STR raised by 30,000 points, so was my AGI. I was practically a god now. I cut down the Trolls in front of me fervently, letting their attacks and spells pelt me. I didn’t need to dodge them, not with my HP and VIT this high. I cleared out the horde of a hundred-plus Trolls in a matter of minutes and walked away with barely a scratch.

Twenty four hours later…

==[Death’s Harrier has now deactivated.

It was only a 24-hour hunt, but I was more than satisfied. I was definitely going to use Death’s Harrier again once it was off its cooldown. “Open Stats Menu.”

I leveled up once, but gained three extra levels thanks to Bortega’s Blessing. I didn’t care much about the levels, however, and instead, my eyes shifted to all of the Stat points I had. I was 9,000 stat points away from getting my AGI up to 20,000.
“If I had another hour, I could have gotten 9,000 Stat points.” I was a little more than 60 points away, even after all that hunting I had done, and my Fatigue was raised to 33 in only 24 hours. It was so close and yet so far.
But then again, I only needed about three days to gain one more level. With Bortega’s Blessing, I could gain another three levels and get 80 Stat points in all. I raised my spear and starting hunting again.

Three days later…
==[You have gained a level.]==
Finally. I smiled and laughed to myself as I opened up my Stats Menu and began investing 9,000 points in to AGI.
==[Your base AGI has surpassed 20,000 points.
Your total AGI points: 24,901

I invested the 2,000 extra Stat points I got, and the remaining 17 points, into STR. My next goal was to get STR to 30k. I had a feeling it wouldn’t take long if Death’s Harrier could just get me almost the same amount of Stat points it got me today. I just had to wait 30 more days. I shivered from the excitement just thinking about it.
“Great! I’m summoning you every chance I get!”
