Now that I see that I got a crap ton of Divine Skill Points, I am going to upgrade my Path Jewels I guess, hopefully, it doesn't count so freaking much though.

And talking about the other stuff… Divine Dungeon Points, perhaps I could buy some more Divinity Fragments Elixirs…

Thing is, the ones I bought did not restock, so I have to buy the higher-grade ones, which are all Divinity Realm from Demi to True, similar Item Ranks than Artifacts.

The ones I bought were the normal ones I could get from prizes and stuff, but those are gone, I guess.

And now that I am so strong, little fragments really don't help much, especially the low-quality ones.

It could be said that I have eaten so much, and my soul had grown so much that eating these don't make much of a difference… only large pieces directly extracted from Gods or Demigods made any difference and only a bit… Gravern and Smirkes Soul Fragments were a nice snack, but I would need to eat many and whole Gods to get some substantial boost.

Which I might in the upcoming battle…

And these Divinity Fragment Elixirs of higher grades cost a shit ton (500.000 Divine Dungeon Points for Demi Rank and 1.000.000 for True Rank…), and will probably not give as much of a boost anyways, so I am just saving them for now.

Well, there might be other interesting items, but I am better concentration on the Path Jewels for the moment until I begin looking over the shop once more.

And so, I finally look at my current Path Jewels…

…

<Path Board>

[1 Level = 10.000 Divine Skill Points (Rank 1)/1.000 Divine Skill Points (Rank 2)/100 Divine Skill Points (Rank 3)/ 10 Divine Skill Points (Rank 4)/ 1 Divine Skill Point (Rank 5)

[Path Orifices:

[1: [Monarch of Gluttony] [Path Jewel Grade: Living Deity (Rank 1)]

[2: [True Abyssal Existence: Abhorred Eldritch Entity Body and Soul] [Path Jewel Grade: Living Deity (Rank 1)]

[3: [Divine Chaotic Abyssal Demon Monarch Fragmented Body] [Path Jewel Grade: Living Deity (Rank 1)]

[4: [Transcendental Goddess of Element Manipulation and Technological Creation] [Path Jewel Grade: Living Deity (Rank 1)]

[5: [Void-Born Horrifying Spatial Aberration] [Path Jewel Grade: Living Deity (Rank 1)]

[6: [Heavenly Law and Divine System Creator] [Path Jewel Grade: Living Deity (Rank 1)]

[7: [Divine Goddess of Illusive Fantastical Dreams and Terrifying Nightmares] [Path Jewel Grade: Living Deity (Rank 1)]

I got 7 of these miraculous Jewels, and they're all "Rank 1".

Ranks for Path Jewels are related to my Divinity Rank.

Rank 1 is comparable to Living Deity Realm, and that's the rank all of them come out as.

Then there's Rank 2 for Demigod Realm.

And then Rank 3 for God Realm.

And well, Rank 4 for Great God Realm…

And lastly, Rank 5 Supreme God Realm!

So to match my power, I have to enhance them all the way to Rank 3.

But aren't they already insanely strong at Rank 1?

I fear that they might cost way too much Divine Skill Points if making them even stronger obviously mean using way more divine skill points…

Alright, this is the first Jewel's details:

[Path Orifice 1: [Monarch of Gluttony] [Path Jewel Grade: Living Deity (Rank 1)]:

[1st Branch] 

[Gluttonous Primordial Beast: Neo Uroboros (100/100)]:

Additional Abilities: [Chaotic Annihilator of Divinities (30/30)] [Gluttonous Divinity Feasting (30/30)], [Monstrous Self-Consumption and Renewal (30/30)], [Monstrous Abyssal Maws of Endless Devouring (30/30)] 

Let's see… As I inspect the System, it seems that for upgrading this, I require…

Ding!

[I have calculated it, Master!]

[Divine Skill Points required to upgrade Path Jewel to Rank 2: 100.000 Divine Skill Points!]

[The price may vary depending on how many Abilities they possess]

[Additionally, it seems that two new Abilities can be acquired, although they will require additional Divine Skill Points to use]

[Oh, and Discounts cannot be used, sadly]

I guess that's as far as we can go with the discounts…

This path Jewel is very important for me as it helps me devour anything I want, so I have to prioritize it.

Anyways, Andromeda, upgrade this one.

Just as I order her, Andromeda happily obliges and does as I asked her.

[Very well]

Suddenly, a large quantity of my Divine Skill Points flies towards the Path Jewel resting within my soul's Path Board, as it begins to shower it with great amounts of constant energies.

Flash!

The Path Jewel is showered on it and flows brightly, quickly evolving and changing in quality.

I feel a new rush of power, as the Path Jewel begins to expand his light all around the Path Board, enhancing it. Several circuits of light grow into my soul, as new powers are acquired.

Ding!

[You exchanged 100.000 Divine Skill Points!]

[The [Monarch of Gluttony] [Path Jewel Grade: Living Deity (Rank 1)] Path Jewel has been upgraded into the [The [Monarch of Gluttony] [Path Jewel Grade: Demigod (Rank 2)] Path Jewel!]

[All the existing Abilities Effects have been enhanced!]

[You have unlocked two new Additional Abilities: [Great Dimensional Stomach (0/50)] and [Gluttonous Digestion: (0/50)]!]

Oh? These two new Abilities seem interesting… But let's upgrade this to God Grade first.

[Very well, Master. The cost is… 300.000 Divine Skill Points!]

300000?! Ugh…

But this is a vital Path Jewel… I guess I am not upgrading them all.

Nonetheless, it is good enough, use them.

[Very well]

Once more, Andromeda used my Divine Skill Points to enhance the large Path Jewel once more.

Flash!

With an explosive glow of colors, the Path Jewel finally upgraded into a greater grade, becoming God Grade (Rank 3)!

Ding!

[You exchanged 300.000 Divine Skill Points!]

[The [Monarch of Gluttony] [Path Jewel Grade: Demigod (Rank 2)] Path Jewel has been upgraded into the [The [Monarch of Gluttony] [Path Jewel Grade: God (Rank 3)] Path Jewel!]

[All the existing Abilities Effects have been enhanced!]

[You have unlocked two new Additional Abilities: [Spatial Devouring Domain (0/80)] and [Endless Stockpile: (0/80)]!]

And two new more Additional Abilities as well.

Should I check them or ignore them for now?

Nah, I will just buy them right away.

Let's see what they do first.

…

[Great Dimensional Stomach (0/50)]

Passive Effect: Enhances the effectiveness of all Abilities within this Path Jewel while eating things by 200%.

Active Effect: Use your gluttonous and endless stomach to create a dimension of its own, where you can store anything you eat and decide to not digest, trapping it within the endless gibbering flesh of your monstrous and grotesque stomach.

Anything that reaches your Great Dimensional Stomach is suppressed inside, and its power is greatly reduced.

…

[Gluttonous Digestion: (0/50)]

Passive Effect: Enhances the effectiveness of all Abilities within this Path Jewel while eating things by 200% alongside the speed of any kind of thing being digested by 500%.

Active Effect: Use the powers of the Monarch of Gluttony to digest anything that you manage to eat, destroying it away within your Great Dimensional Stomach, even things that are believed to not be able to be eaten can be digested, and every time you eat something with large quantities of power, you can absorb it to enhance yourself to greater levels, gaining more bonuses than before.

…

[Spatial Devouring Domain (0/80)]

Passive Effect: Enhances the effectiveness of all Abilities within this Path Jewel while eating things by 200%, while being able to ignore 30% of the defense of any foe within your domain.

Active Effect: Unleash a Domain that can devour anything within the designed range, even space itself, breaking any distance without any problems, the devouring attacks deal penetration damage that can ignore defense and directly target the user's flesh and soul at the same time.

This Domain causes continuous damage to your foes based on 10% of your total stats.

…

[Endless Stockpile: (0/80)]

Passive Effect: Enhances the effectiveness of all Abilities within this Path Jewel while eating things by 200%. While stockpiling energy, you gain an additional 10% stockpile.

Active Effect: Use the great power of someone who will never be satiated, anything you eat will be stockpiled as surplus that you can use to enhance all of your body capabilities or even to use for certain techniques or Abilities, with enough amounts, you can even replace Divine Energy to a certain extent.

…

Oh?! Aren't they all amazing though?

Although I can do most of those things already, they seem to be super-enhanced versions of such abilities, carrying them to even greater levels of ridiculousness.

Aside from that, it seems that Endless Stockpile is amazing, as I can even replace Divine Energy using Path Jewel Abilities by accumulating "stockpile", which is most likely something like calories or any type of surplus energy.

Without further ado, I decide to max them all out, as they will come very useful in the battle to come…

Ding!

[You exchanged 5000 Divine Skill Points (Rank 3)]

[Great Dimensional Stomach (0/50)] > [Great Dimensional Stomach (50/50)]

And done!

A rush of power crosses through my very soul, as I feel filled with new capabilities.

Damn, that was a lot of Divine Skill Points, but I should be able to do the same for at least two more, maybe…

Alright, let's go for the next one straight away!

…

[Path Orifice 2: [True Abyssal Existence: Abhorred Eldritch Entity Body and Soul] [Path Jewel Grade: Living Deity (Rank 1)]:

[1st Branch] 

[True Abyssal Existence: Eldritch Abomination (100/100)]:

Additional Abilities: [True Abyssal Form: Nyarlathotep (30/30)], [Logic-Defying Horrifying Existence: Yog-Sothoth (30/30)], [Mortal Shell: Abyssal Eldritch Divinity: Cthulhu (30/30)], [Abyssal Bloodline: Shub-Niggurath (30/30)]

…

This is the one I want to upgrade the most after Gluttony, this Path Jewel is also very important because it represents my physical body! Without it enhancing, how can I fight against the big threats to come?

So, I have to make it way better!

Alright, Andromeda-chan, do your thing!

[Very well!]

[Calculating… Required Divine Skill Points to upgrade the Path Jewel: 120.000!]

Okay then, do it!

[As you wish!]

Flash!

The whole flashy thing happens again, and the Path Jewel upgrades to Rank 2, Demigod Grade!

[You exchanged 120.000 Divine Skill Points!]

[The [True Abyssal Existence: Abhorred Eldritch Entity Body and Soul] [Path Jewel Grade: Living Deity (Rank 1)] Path Jewel has been upgraded into the [True Abyssal Existence: Abhorred Eldritch Entity Body and Soul] [Path Jewel Grade: Demigod (Rank 2)] Path Jewel!]

[All the existing Abilities Effects have been enhanced!]

[You have unlocked two new Additional Abilities: [Birth Of One Thousand Aberrant Children: Shub-Niggurath: (0/70)] and [Aberrant Portal To Horror: Yog-Sothoth: (0/70)]!]

Those two Abilities do sound quite… interesting.

I quickly decide to upgrade it to God Grade and be done with it.

[You exchanged 330.000 Skill Points (Rank 3)!]

[The [True Abyssal Existence: Abhorred Eldritch Entity Body and Soul] [Path Jewel Grade: Demigod (Rank 2)] Path Jewel has been upgraded into the [True Abyssal Existence: Abhorred Eldritch Entity Body and Soul] [Path Jewel Grade: God (Rank 3)] Path Jewel!]

[All the existing Abilities Effects have been enhanced!]

[You have unlocked two new Additional Abilities: [Tentacles of Never-Ending Shapeshifting Grotesqueness: Cthulhu: (0/100)] and [Spawn of Azathoth: Nyarlathotep (0/100)]!]

And done!

Let's check these abilities right now, though I feel like they are going to be strange.

…

[Birth Of One Thousand Aberrant Children: Shub-Niggurath: (0/70)]

Passive Effect: Enhances the strength of all the Aberrant Children you produce from your flesh by 1% with every single child, with a cap of 500%.

Active Effect: Use your aberrant and ever-changing shapeshifting flesh to generate aberrant mutagenic children with the appearance of all the entities you have devoured merged together into endless types of appearances, they have their own abilities and are comparable to Divine Beasts in strength, the Rank is the same as the Path Jewel. (Current Rank: God Rank)

…

[Aberrant Portal To Horror: Yog-Sothoth: (0/70)]

Passive Effect: Enhances the time you can keep up the Portal to Horror based on how much Divine Energy you spend on other Abilities within the Path Jewel.

Active Effect: Harness the horrifying power of your aberrant flesh and soul to generate portals to a world of complete horrors that exist within your endless flesh dimension.

Targets that touch the portals are attacked by countless aberrant flesh masses, jaws, and more, and receive damage over time, alongside being inflicted by random status ailments and the [Horror] Negative Status Effect if the foe's will is not strong enough.

…

[Tentacles of Never-Ending Shapeshifting Grotesqueness: Cthulhu: (0/100)

Passive Effect: Enhances the damage dealt with these tentacles by 200% to any foe with the [Horror] Negative Status Effect.

Active Effect: Unleash the true horror of your shapeshifting body, summoning hundreds of powerful and slimy tentacles from your body that constantly shapeshift and attack a foe, entrapping it within the horror of such an attack and dealing random negative status effects while inflicting damage over time.

…

[Spawn of Azathoth: Nyarlathotep (0/100)]

Passive Effect: Any damage deal while using the Active Effect of this Ability has a guaranteed 50% change to cause the [Horror] Negative Status Effect on a foe.

Active Effect: Harness all the power of your horrifying and shapeshifting existence as you become the true embodiment of the Spawn of Azathoth, turning into a monstrous, formless entity, enhancing all your capabilities by 400%, while also enhancing them even further by 200% while fighting foes inflicted with the [Horror] Negative Status Effect.

…

Oh damn, this brings a lot of possibilities to the menu!

Those portals, the new Horror Status Effect, and all the little toys I can use to play around those inflicted with it! Without mention that I can stack all these abilities with the other soon, I have to generate even more ridiculous results.

The interesting one is the summoning one, which seems to generate beasts with the strength of Divine Beasts of God Rank, pretty amazing, and I can do that just with my flesh?

…Damn, what am I even?

I guess just a monster, nothing much, I like to be humble.

Anyways, time to max these ones out.

Ding!
