Kaiser of the New World (Ch 200+)

New perks (239)

Kai softly rubbed his eyes, wondering if he was seeing things right. Sure he was a little tired, but that didn't warrant him imagining a really high number.

450 added to each stat whenever he used Soul Inferno just seemed way too good to be true. It was just so much stats that Kai didn't believe he was reading things right.

It was only after he done a bit of maths in his head did that number seem plausible.

If he used Soul Inferno by itself, he would gain 250 bonus stats in each stat. Including his bloodline, that number would rise to 325. Then, including his Flame of Hope, it would rise to the 450 he was currently reading.

And that meant it also had the possibility to reach 575 in each stat if he ever got desparate in a fight.

A mad grin slowly started crawling onto Kai's face.

With this skill upgrade, everything just got a whole lot easier.

It would be able to keep them warm while the blizzard slowly got worse and worse the higher up they would have to clime, it had incredibly offensive capabilities considering that majority of the creatures they would encounter would have something to do with snow or ice, it could make his items stronger, hence making him deal more damage and take less damage, and to top it all off, it gave him a crap ton of stats.

If he wanted to, he could manipulate the flames to boost only one of his stats, increasing a single stat by 3150.

And Kai had a faint idea of how he could take advantage of that fact.

But first, he wanted to test just how much his control of the flames had grown during his month in the cell of ice.

Taking a deep breath, Kai exterminated all of the flames coating him except for a little ember on his fingertip.

Then, with near masterful precision, he slowly started making that small ember cover his whole body.

Of course, this would be incredibly inefficient in a fight, so it was lucky that he wasn't in one, Kai just wanted to test what he was capable of.

The upgrade of the skill had also given a boost to his proficiency, making the test a little easier.

Once that test was over, Kai had the flames attach to his armour.

The feeling was... strange. The flames were still completely covering him, every inch of him being enshrouded by the raging fire, only it was like there was now two layers to it.

One layer being the one that boosted all of Kai's stats and made him look incredibly awesome whenever he used the skill, and the other layer was a much smaller one that was clinging to his Chrome Skin, making it even sturdier than it already was.

Suddenly, Kai got another idea. Since the description of the skill said that the flames would boost certain aspects of the item it was empowering...

Kai sent some extra flames to coat his Flame of Hope.

The idea in his head was simple.

Would it boost his gained stats even more?

Sadly, the answer was one that he didn't want to hear.

With the extra flames coating it, the ember inside the silver necklace seemed to glow a little brighter, but Kai gained no additional stats.

Kai sighed to himself.

So he couldn't gain any more additional stats through the boost the flames offered, they only increased basic features of items such as their durability or sharpness.
