Reborn As A Ghost: Time To Build My Undead Army!

-----

The amount of Skills I possessed easily surpassed a hundred by now, perhaps. And just as I had evolved and ate those two Gods, I got even more Skills as well! Honestly the list never ends. It was a relief I unlocked something new once the System beca Divine System. And it was a special Soul Grimoire function named Skill Fusion Forge!

"Michael, can I access the Skill Fusion Forge?" I asked him.

"Of course, you may enter at any time. It is a special pocket realm you now possess; it is contained within my own core." Michael said. "How about you get inside, and I show you how it works?"

FLASH!

Suddenly, a red colored portal appeared in front of me, I quickly entered it, reaching a completely different place. It resembled an ancient, yet majestic forge, with blazing red flames and a huge golden hammer. There was also an anvil, and the room was no bigger than thirty meters. There was a sealed door behind and open windows, which led to an empty dark area.

Ding!

"As you can see, the maximum Rank is 5." He said. "And it'll cost you… 500.000.000 System Points to get it all! Pretty cheap. You just have to kill a few more Gods, hahaha!"

"Shut up, that's not cheap at all, Michael. You're just messing withat this point." I sighed. "Well, let's unlock the Rank 2 at least, I can afford that, yeah."

"Very well."

"Perfect, three Skills is much better! Though I wish the upgrades cwith sSystem Point discount…" I groaned.

"Well, that can't be done. The System Points are essential for the entire Skill Fusion to happen." Michael said. "Now, how about you combine something? You have many Skills at Level 10 now."

"Can I combine just any Skill? Even Title Skills?" I wondered.

"Interesting… Let's see." I sat down in front of the forge and looked at my Status. "What should I fuse to try this out? Hmm, ah, how about these?"

[You have selected the [Gorgon's Transformation: Lv10] [Abyssal Demon Transformation: Lv10] [Divine Moonlight Titan Body: Lv10] Skills for the Skill Fusion Forge!]

[Do you wish to begin the Skill Fusion process?] [Skill Fusion Cost: 30.000.000 System Points]

<Yes> <No>

I often used these three skills together to attain my "ultimate" form, which combined all my transformations together. It was a form I used even against Oceania. Now, I can finally combine all three of these Skills and attain such form permanently as a Skill!

"Yes."

I pressed the button, as I felt the System Points emerge as energy from my body. All three skills appeared as bubbles, which started burning in the divine flames of the forge, and then, as if my body moved automatically, I grasped the hammer and started hitting the bubbles.

Sparks of red flames constantly cout with each strike, as the bubbles started to meld together as I kept them close to one another, slowly, and through a process of smelting and hitting with the hammer, all three bubbles ctogether into a single, larger, and red and black colored one.

FLAAASH!

The bubble flew into my chest, as I felt a brand-new power coursing through my body, a Skill that I wanted to see, yet I didn't expect to end up being something slightly different too.

Ding!

[You have exchanged 30.000.000 System Points.]

[You have successfully combined the [Gorgon's Transformation: Lv10] [Abyssal Demon Transformation: Lv10] [Divine Moonlight Titan Body: Lv10] Skills into the Fusion Skill: [Divine Death Beast Transformation: Guardian Of The Underworld, Anubis: Lv1]!]

"W-What the hell? What kind of Skill is this?!" I cried in surprise. "Do I get to beca dog now?"

"It seems you didn't understand what Skill Fusion truly is. You're not just combining the effects of different skills into a larger Skill. You're using the Concepts behind Skills and merging them into a stronger Skill, but that might not necessarily carry the seffects as its ingredients." Michael explained to me.

"I see, oh well. It's not like I'll need them that much. And thanks to the powers imbued into my very soul, I can easily channel their forms as well." I smiled, as I quickly transformed into a Titan of Moonlight, and also into a mass of countless giant snakes, or even a demonic bug creature. "Though, it is a bit more tiring to use it without a Skill guiding me. Anyways, let's see what this Skill can do."

"[Divine Death Beast Transformation: Guardian Of The Underworld, Anubis]!"

FLUOSH!

I activated the Skill before even looking at its description, just to see what happens.
