My OP Minion System in the Apocalypse

Alicar asked me to talk to him a little later since he had some stuff to deal with.

As a result, I found myself back on my couch.

Ah, I wonder what was in this [Rare Mystery Box].

[Random Ability Unlock]

Sword Saint

(Legendary)

-

Wait, what was this? The highest levelled ability I had gotten up to this point was ultra-rare. Legendary was obviously above that. I guess this was the result of killing such a strong vampire. I waited a few moments for a description of the ability to appear.

[Sword Saint causes all wounds made by the user's weapon unable to be regenerated. No matter how strong the regeneration of the victim is, the injuries cannot be healed. This ability can be activated and deactivated by the user.]

Hold on, this was new. From what it said, it sounded like I would be able to permanently damage vampires with this ability. If that were the case, I'd have a much better chance against the vampire royals. We would be basically fighting on even ground.

This was a groundbreaking advancement.

In addition to my other abilities, I would be truly able to fight on par with some of the strongest vampires.

I opened my Shadow Hunter System and began slowly working through my experience.

My first reward was a Soul Mark Strength Increase. I should've gotten some bonuses from my [Destiny Return] ability.

Ah, that was nice to see. I had indeed gotten rewarded for the vampire kills. I was more than 10x stronger than I was when I first got my Shadow Hunter System. No wonder it's been easier to kill vampires recently.

I had a lot of experience to go through so I moved on to the next reward.

[Your abilities have been upgraded]

There wasn't any more information aside from that. I guess it was just like a general upgrade, something that happened every time I upgrade my Personal Reality now. I was a little disappointed, I would've preferred to receive more abilities or some other sort of reward.

It didn't really matter that much.

I needed all the power I could get if I wanted to fight the stronger vampires. I expected that the offensive operation was going to begin very soon. When it starts, I might not have the safety that I have every night.

I needed to get stronger.

At first, the name suggested that it'd be another simple upgrade to [Regeneration Blocker], however, it seemed that something was different. A description of the power appeared in front of me.

[Regeration Blocker X powers up nearby humans with the [Regeration Blocker] ability. This multiplies its effect depending on how many people are nearby.]

What was this?

The description didn't seem to make a lot of sense. Was it making nearby humans stronger or was it increasing the strength of [Regeneration Blocker]? Considering that I already have the [Sword Saint] ability, [Regeneration Blocker] didn't really provide me with any benefits anymore. I guess the system was accounting for that in its own way.

I was shown the same thing as before upon upgrading my Personal Reality.

I guess this was how my progression was going to work now.

I looked at the next page of the rewards.

What was the level 30 reward? It was just a message...

I wonder what it was.

Aside from that, every other reward on this page was just a Soul Mark Strength Increase. Although it seemed to be a little bit greater than before.

-

<Soul Mark>

Strength Amplification: 1582%

Speed Amplification: 1582%

-

I guess it increases by 150% instead of 100% like before. It wasn't too big of a change but it'd add up over time. I continued and finished off the rest of my experience.
