CHAPTER 113: Origin Glaive Replica (Epic Grade)

*****

While it appeared as if Olivia and Sergei were calm during their meeting with Jay's siblings and throughout the journey, that wasn't really the case.

As they got off the Private Jet, both of them were taken aback by the presence of the four people who were waiting for them at the runway airstrip.

Sergei and Olivia then used on all four of them, but since none of them was assimilated with the System, they didn't have any level or tier to be shown.

However, the Estimated Level and Tier part showed that among the four of them, three were at Tier-2 High-Phase while the crimson-haired youth in a black suit was at Tier-3 Low-Phase.

Back on Day-1 rest day, Jay used on Kay. It only showed his name and species name since was just a common grade skill.

But now that Olivia and Sergei used , an Uncommon grade skill, they were able to check the level, tier and their corresponding estimated parts, and that was the extent of it.

The estimation only depends on one's overall amount of stats but not one's combat prowess or their Innate Talent's abilities.

With Jay using mode five times in the span of Day-7 & Day-8, his overall stats in increased from 830 to 930 since 10 Looted Stats were added to his attributes in every time he exits mode.

For Minor ORIGIN SIGIL holders like Moro, Esha and other core security personnel, Jay could transfer them each the Undistributed Looted Stats that was equal to 25% of his overall stats.

Meaning that each of them would be able to use 232 Undistributed Looted Stats.

Due to training at various gravity stages in the Hypergravity Chamber, not only did they use them all but also brought their control over to 90% over their improved stats in just a few days, which should have taken a few weeks or even months to accomplish.

Even the Earth's Alpha Chosen or any Alpha Chosen from the Trial World, for that matter, everyone would have at most 60 to 70% of control over their attributes since it's been just eight days since the start of the Trial Program.

Improving that control further would take quite some time unless they have any skills similar to that Jay could use.

As for Major ORIGIN SIGIL holders like Qew and Kay, they were allotted 465 Undistributed Looted Stats, but as of then, both of them were only able to use half of those Undistributed Looted Stats because of the restriction that Jay set for them that only by reaching 90% or above control over their own stats could they add more Undistributed Looted Stats.

Because of that, both Qew and Kay had the Estimated Tier of just Tier-2 High-Phase once they used all their allotted amount of Undistributed Stats, they would have been equivalent to a Tier-3 life form.

Despite not having the overall stats of a Tier-3 life form, Kay could face a Tier-3 Low-Phase monster due to his Grade-10 Innate Talent abilities.

In the case of Qew, due to the higher element Lightning Fire that she could use along with Jay, she was on par with a Tier-3 Mid-Phase monster in terms of attack power.

Once Kay brings out his Innate Talent's potential, it wouldn't be difficult for him to fight monsters that are two phases higher than him.

Coming to Moro, he was an exception among the Minor ORIGIN SIGIL holders.

Due to Moro possessing a Bloodline, he could use the Undistributed Looted Stats equal to 50% of his overall stats, similar to a Major ORIGIN SIGIL holder.

With the War Asura Bloodline that lets Moro gain control over the improved stats at an unprecedented rate, he already used all the Undistributed Stats that were allotted to him and obtained extra stats from using the Spiritual fruits of all five attributes from all three grades.

----------

Reminder Note from Author:

Grade-1 Spiritual Fruit increases 2 stats in their specific attribute on consuming it for the first time.

Grade-2 Spiritual Fruit increases 5 stats in their specific attribute on consuming it for the first time.

Grade-3 Spiritual Fruit increases 10 stats in their specific attribute on consuming it for the first time.

----------

When these Spiritual Fruits of the first three grades were used in proper order, i.e., consuming Grade-1 Spiritual Fruits before Grade-2 ones and so on, they could provide a total of 85 extra overall stats (10+25+50).

Combining them, Moro's overall stats reached that of a Tier-3 Low-Phase life form.

So, when Olivia and Sergei used and found that all four of them were so strong even before assimilating with the System, it came as quite a shock for them, especially after finding out how strong Moro was.

However, they didn't know that if Moro activates the War Asura Skin and fights with his all, he wouldn't have a problem standing toe to toe with a Tier-3 High-Phase monster.

Among the Earth's Alpha Chosen, other than me, maybe only Olivia has the chance to defeat Moro. Even without joining the Trial Program, Moro could easily rank among the top, already stronger than almost every Alpha Chosen.

Olivia was the first one to come back to her senses since she already knew that Jay had the ability to improve one's Innate Talent grade and make them stronger with Looted Stats.

Sergei was a bit slower than Olivia, but he connected the dots and confirmed his suspicions that Jay really had the ability to make someone stronger.

The fact that Jay could even strengthen those who weren't assimilated with the System showcases his terrifying means and abilities.

The first time Sergei saw Jay was when he dropped off Dante with them. Then he was able to make sense of how powerful Jay might be.

But, when he saw Jay for the second time at the Earth's Alpha Chosen gathering, he rethought the difference in their strengths.

Back then, Sergei didn't understand why Jay didn't bother to recruit anyone of the Earth's Alpha Chosen.

But after his recent realisation, everything became clear to him, and he felt a rush of goosebumps upon realising that if Jay wanted, he could even create his very own personal army, with each one of them being stronger than the Earth's Alpha Chosen.

Not just Sergei, but also Olivia believed that Jay would one day tip the power scales of the Earth and that it wouldn't be far away.

*****

Back at the Secret Base's Hypergravity Chamber, Jay continued to train and improve Lv.15 to Lv.20 till there was just an hour before the Day-8 rest period ended.

Jay didn't go and meet with Olivia because he didn't want to traumatise her.

Ever since she was hit by the Origin Energy shockwave and almost died, an instinctive fear rooted within her.

Every time she sees Jay, she is reminded of the same ominous Origin Energy that made her experience having her Innate Talent and Soul almost wither away while a part of their consciousness was aware of everything that was happening to them.

That was not something that one could forget easily. It's a type of pain that even time takes longer to heal.

So, Jay didn't go and meet Olivia to give her the space she needed to overcome her trauma, which he inadvertently was the cause of.

While Jay was in his thoughts, MJ excitedly flew towards him while holding a 6ft long Dual-bladed Glaive in his little hands.

"Master, I used the Emerald Spirit Metal Ore to create a replica of the Origin Glaive. Thanks to the Grade-4 Spirit Metal Ore, this is officially an Epic Grade Spirit Weapon."

Jay was pumped up looking at the Grade-4 Replica of the Spirit weapon he was longing for.

______________

[ (Epic Grade): A replica that couldn't compare to its original.]

Effect: Strength+38^, Agility+42^

Requirements: 100 Strength, 100 Agility

Durability: 100/100

Inherent Skill: (Rare)

: Turns the glaive as light as a feather and increases slashing damage by four-fold.

Cost: 60 Spirit Energy per second.

______________

The stats that could be gained from bonding with it were significantly higher than a Rare grade weapon, and so are its requirements.

However, all of that didn't matter to Jay, as his respective attribute stats were nearly double that of its requirements.

Soon, Jay bonded with it, but he had MJ to block the Spirit Weapon stats he would receive.

If he hadn't done that, he would have gained extra 80 stats, which would bring his overall stats to 990, and Jay could atmost use mode one more time before it gets deactivated until he breaks through the 1st Universe Limit.

Jay still wanted to try his luck on Day-9 and see if he could find the Arch Spirit Fruit in the following 15 trial zones that could enter by the end of Day-9.

After bonding with the (Epic Grade), Jay started testing it out right away as he started swinging it in a series of attacks and counters to familiarise himself with it.

Jay couldn't wait to test out the on the Grade-4 Spirit Weapon to see if he could really unleash it within the duration that the Origin Energy takes to destroy the replica.

Soon, time passed, and as the rest period was about to end, Jay instructed MJ, "It's about time, implement RPs in the Earth's Foothold and introduce their uses and benefits to the Earth's Alpha Chosen."
