By the next month, farming the Cerberus had become routine, and much easier.

Pef glanced at his character page.

"Damn it. My Mana points are still the weakest link. I need to increase them somehow." Pef muttered in a low voice.

Lise peered over his shoulder, and hugged him from behind. "The game will give you a new profession, right? At level 200? And if you Ascend to Legendary class, the mana pool will double yet again."

"Well, I can spam Arc Darts non-stop now. And when they reach level 20...they should evolve again. Maybe Arc bullets or such. Just like my Nine Hero Steps evolved into Nine Saintly Steps...." Pef mused to himself.

Constant use of spells, and a higher Ascension did allow for more evolutions.

Even his basic Mana Shield had evolved into Charged Shield, Blocking 200 damage for merely 20 MP.

"You are a cheater who cheats, husband. Stop complaining. 200 levels in 6 months is rather absurd, it took me a hundred years." Lise whispered in his ear.

Pef nodded and gestured towards the Floor portal. "Ten more times...should be enough for the next level."

And as predicted the tenth time the Floor 37 boss died, Pef reached level 200.

*You have reached level 200. Gained 4 Magic point and 2 free attributes. You can select a new profession. Sorcerer, grants 4 Magic Attributes and 3 free attributes per level. Accept? Yes/No.

Pef clicked rapidly on the Yes tab.

Finally, 3 free attributes per level again, just like he had when he begun the game.

*You have become a Sorcerer. All spells cost 10 percent less and cast 10 percent faster. You may now fuse various spells.

"Hey! I can fuse spells? Like it happened with my Aura Body?" Pef asked at the sky.

A soft touch carried by a warm breeze ruffled his hair. "Yes." Gaia whispered in agreement.

Pef sat down and began choosing spells to fuse.

*You have fused Steel skin with Aura Body. Steel Aura grants 300 Damage Block and reduces all incoming physical damage by 27 percent. Passive.

Pef went into a frenzy, combining most of his spells into better ones, and reducing the mental strain for casting many different spells in combat.

And his wives could only watch in awe, as their husband was producing world-class spells from nothing.

"How can I get this ability...is so cheating!" Miya muttered in a small voice.

Pef drew her into a tight hug. "Reach level 200 and select Sorceress." he explained in a light tone, while patting her bottom for comfort.

Miya blushed fiercely and began breathing a bit too loud.

"Time to go home and celebrate!" Lise announced loudly, and without any envy in her voice. Well, maybe a bit of envy...

A dozen hours later, after serious session of matrimonial farming, Pef sated his wives and laid them to rest and recover.

No more free Constitution points either. Probably Gaia wanted him to gain a bigger harem...not that Pef minded that, at all.

'Not bad, for 6 months of hard work...' he mused inward.

Still, he would need another month on Floor 37, to level up his wives to level 200. Miya's ascension was due soon, for her own Saint class.

Plus a bigger stash of Elixirs and potions wouldn't be too bad. Even Master Alchemists couldn't produce Major Healing potions, so he had a monopoly on that...and prices kept going higher on the Abyss Auction.

They reached 100 million per potion now! Scarcity was a thing, even here.

He kept reading more magic and mystical books, trying to find a way to get stronger even faster.

But it seemed he did need to grind his way, from dungeon to dungeon and bigger and badder bosses.

Perhaps Gaia's global dungeons would give more Exp, but then they wouldn't have the safety net of resurrection, in case of death.

And then, there was the conflict with the Holy Church. If they also had Saints and holy relics, they could be a real problem when he left the safety of the Paracelsus Association.

Not the lowly Maltese Templars.

But, to be a world class power when other sects and cults had demigods...the Holy Church surely had their own secret weapons.

Also, there was that 'world will end' threat...that he vividly remembered from his first days in the Abyss.

To become someone that might save the world, a mere level 200 wasn't nearly enough. Even with a game system and his Sorcerer profession.

'So, about 50 more levels to reach enough attributes for a Legendary class Ascension. Okay. I can do it!' Pef decided with an inward pep talk.

Next day, Master Kimmel came to visit once more, bringing expensive gifts.

Pef nodded at the Master Alchemist politely.

"If you would accept my wife Miya Chen as an Alchemy student, I suppose I could be grateful and trade 100 Medium Healing potions." he said in a trader's tone.

Negotiations were a bit difficult, as he was a guest here.

"Oh, the asian girl? She did reach Heroic Class rather fast. I assume she does have telekinesis, right?" Kimmel wondered rhetorically.

Pef just nodded.

"All right then. Medium potions, as you call them...they can still regrow organs. But the will be friction, and Master Paracelsus needs to approve of her. 200 Medium potions, 10 Elixirs and 10 Major potions seems a fair trade..." the Alchemist bartered while laying down his own gifts.

A dozen new magic resistance items, including a pink ribbon that shined with inner light.

"Agreed!" Pef decided and passed over the goods.

He then stored the items and began checking his inventory.

*Shinra Ether Shinto ribbon. Saint class accessory. Worn on neck. Grants +10 to all stats. Grants 10 percent Magic Resistance. Protects against curses. Immune to Heaven's Tribulation.

*Yang Sunfire manual.

*Mana growth pill.

*Vedic teleport talisman. Sanskrit knowledge required. Returns user to a saved location.

*Aztec Quetzalcoatl snake feather ankle binding. Worn on ankle. Adds +20 Magic and 10 percent Lightning damage.

Pef read the talisman, learning Sanskrit while doing so. It did seem similar to his own Heartstone ability, but stored on an old wooden tablet.

*You have examined an ancient Sanskrit talisman. You have learning to craft talismans, due to having Crafting skill at level 16.

With a wide grin, Pef sped away and returned to his dormitory room.

Then he grabbed Miya and spun her around. "My dear, I have something for you!" He exclaimed happily and passed over the Yang Cultivation and the Mana pill.

Then, as his young asian wife digested the pill and learned the new cultivation, he bound the pink ribbon on her neck, then kissed her pearly white neck skin.

"Oh...a Saint relic?" Miya whispered in amazement, with a glance at her own page.

"Ain't I the best husband ever?" Pef asked and preened himself, standing tall and proud.

"You sure are, hubby! And now I have to reward you, very very sweetly..." Miya whispered shyly, then jumped on him while storing her clothes in inventory, wearing only the glowing ribbon.

Pef stored his own clothes, and enjoyed farming his wife.

Lise and Lucia joined them a bit later, eager to participate in the fertility ritual.
