The skeleton from before now had slime in between its bones, giving it more support and a more definite shape. The slime didn't slip out of the bones but on the wings and droopy ears, it looked as if the slime was sort of melting.

"Go hunt but bring back only slimes and the bones of monsters," I order the new bone servant in front of me.

I was expecting the skeleton to summon a weapon but instead, it held out its arm and slime started to drip down from it. The dripping slime then turned into a normal medieval-looking sword. It also did the same for its other arm but it didn't stop there.

The slime that covered its ribcage, extended into another pair of arms right above its original arms. It then created two more swords in each slime hand, creating the image of a green asura straight from hell.

It immediately took off, slaughtering anything that it found.

"It looks to be about mid-afternoon so I'll assimilate my new body modifications and skills before Sophia comes back with my new equipment and clothes,"

I activated [Body Modification: Killer Rabbits Strong Muscles] and [Body Modification: Slimes Easy Digestion] at the same time.

I felt my stomach grumble a bit while my muscles started to tense up but no pain proceeded from there. I was thankful for receiving [Pain Immunity] because body modifications hurt bad. Even though I've gone through it so many times, it's still hard to get used to the extreme pain that came with it.

[Killer Rabbits Strong Muscles] + [Slimes Easy Digestion] + [Monsters Body] = [Monster of Monsters Body]

[Piercing Kick] + [Mystic Arm] = [Mystic Arm and Leg]

That's pretty much it. I want to try and assimilate [Sunlight Control] and [Moonlight Control] once I eat one of the werewolves. I think it will create an interesting skill.

The [Summon: Slime Weapon] is nice when I lose my weapon, but I already have Raiu which is a soul weapon bound to me. Maybe I could use it if I don't want to continuously use mana while I'm fighting…

"I'm about to get a new scythe and if I try to create any other weapon with [Summon: Slime Weapon], I'll just miserably fail once I use it due to my partial mastery," I mutter while going back to my castle.

As I was walking to the throne room, I saw something that intrigued me. It was the phoenix corpse in what looked to be a glass case. I also saw the treasure room had expanded towards the back rather than expanding sideways.

There were large glass cases with black stone bottoms. There were only 6 huge, glass cases with one of them filled but the rest should be filled later on.

I wanted to try and assimilate the phoenix feathers with something. Maybe I could try it on… myself?

I opened the glass door for the case and plucked a feather with ease. I closed the glass door gently and then proceeded to wrap the feather around the top of my arm.

"[Assimilation]," I mutter.

The feather started to sink into my arm creating another tattoo. The pre-existing tattoos made space for the new tattoo that was in the shape of a feather.

[Gained the following skill]

[Summon: Phoenix]

"What the fuck… this assimilation skill is broken…" I mutter to myself.

I quickly activated my new skill and then hear a loud,

CAW

I snap my head in the direction of the sound and saw a large phoenix, only slightly smaller than the original. The rainbow feathers still glistened even though there was no natural sunlight coming into the throne room.

As I walked towards it, It suddenly started to shrink into the size of a bald eagle and perched on the top of my head.

...

Is that an innate skill that lets them shrink? Kind of like polymorphing?

Its claws gripped onto my head but I didn't feel any pain nor did it even leave a mark on my skin due to so many body modifications and evolutions. It leaned down and nuzzled its head against my cheek so I started to pet it like how I pet Yin.

It started chirping like a bird as I walked out of the treasure room.

All the maids stared in amazement at the rainbow bird perched on top of my head. Some of their eyes glistened when I said if they wanted to pet it, but refused thinking it was rude to touch something that was mine.

"Whatever…"



"This is here is the scythe that Mister Aiso made," Sophia says while kneeling and giving the scythe to me while I sat on my throne.

It was a white and black scythe that was a little under 9 feet long. The blade was 3 feet long with 5, huge, teeth-like triangles on the blade. The handle had a grip similar to leather with a pattern that was made from black and white coils. Also, the blade and teeth of my scythe were made of streaks of black and white.

At the bottom of the handle were a few short, black and white ropes that I assumed were to give it more buffs and stats.

[Equipment - Shark Scythe]

[+25 Speed (+5) (+10)]

[+25 Magic (+5) (+10)]

[+50 Strength (+5) (+10)]

[Enchants: [Haste] [Boost] [Greater Mana Flow] [Empower]



I grabbed the scythe from her hand and stepped down from my throne. Sophia made way as I practiced with it for a short while. The weight distribution was perfect, a heavier blade with a lighter handle.

I felt unstoppable with it in my hand but I knew this wasn't my full potential.

I should ask Akito how he achieved full mastery.

"Master, would you like to see your first set of clothing?" Sophia asks while bowing.

"Yes,"

A maid brings out some nicely folded black and white clothing. It was my casual set that included leggings, sneakers, and a sweatshirt without the hood.

"Maids I want to change into this now," I order.

4 more maids come out from the hallway as they help me remove my current clothes and put on my new clothes. I could see Sophia slightly blushing as she helped remove my clothes as well.

Hmmm…

It was something you could call close to streetwear but it was a tiny bit more casual. I had a black oversized sweatshirt with white squares all around it that went down to my waist but was baggy in the chest and sleeve areas.

My leggings were pretty tight and were just black. I thought it would make me feel uncomfortable because of how tight it was but I felt pretty relaxed in it.

My sneakers on the other hand were alright. They weren't the nicest to walk in but they looked pretty similar to the ones on earth. It looked like a pair of running shoes but was black with streaks of white wrapping around it.

"Yeah, these types of clothing make me feel much more relaxed than a dress. I should give Aimi a raise. What do you guys think?" I ask my maids.

"If that is what you would like," A maid says while bowing.

My phoenix that was perched on the handle of my throne flew over and landed on top of my head, chirping.

As I started to pet it, I felt a signal from one of my blood minions. A smile crept onto my face as I replaced my eyesight with it.

Right in front of me was a large base camp, with small straw huts. Gray werewolves were flooding the area as it looked like a primitive civilization.

"Call the assassin corps, all the leaders, and Mia here. We are about to go to war," I order my maids after returning to my eyesight.

"As you wish," they all say in unison.
