We headed for the cave behind the village, when we passed the place where I cast the spell we could see that it was now in chaos. In the center, it was a wasteland, and barely the bodies of the four-star monsters remained.
Everything else was charred, and in the center a larger lump of charcoal could be seen. Oddly enough, it was still alive, but in its state it was better to have died since it looked like just a lump of coal. So I put it out of its misery and killed it.
Beside him, I could see an axe in perfect condition, and upon seeing it with my Eyes of Truth, I noticed that it was a medium arcane elemental star axe (5 stars). It was stronger than my current daggers and spear. I'm not that good with axes, but I decided to keep it, either to sell or something else. A weapon of this range is worth a lot wherever you go.
Looking around to see if there was anything useful besides the cores, nothing seemed useful. The conductivity imprinted on the spell gave it a wider damage range, so it was stronger and the repercussions were much greater than I thought.
Also, without my Will characteristic, I couldn't stay sane by chanting a spell four ranks above me. Honestly, now that I killed the beast, I felt the sense of saturation and knew I could advance in rank. So I postponed going deeper into the cave and moved away from the destroyed village.
Finding a good enough place, I decided to awaken the last characteristics I had had in my previous life, although technically only I will ascend. Lili, who is somehow part of my body, can take advantage of my ascents to awaken dark element characteristics, which helps me, as my concentration is already at the limit with only two elements.
It's already rare and difficult to awaken two characteristics. That's why I prioritized Will, which helps me make this task easier and more complete. I'm also going to try to improve healing to turn it into regeneration, but I'm not sure if I'm biting off more than I can, but I'm going to try.
With everything decided, I focused on managing the energy of the experience to make changes in my body and ascend. As before, I focused my mind on the second part of the ascension and exposed all my experiences and knowledge in creating the elemental traits that I had previously awakened in my previous life making the process much easier, After a few minutes I finished the process, When I opened my eyes, I looked at my status page:
