Villain in a Fantasy World; I Level Up by Conquering Villainesses-Chapter 114: Sealed Chaos Qi

BZZZ!

The moment Julian appeared in Lilith’s chamber, he saw the Vampire quietly picking things from inside a black leather bag and arranging them on the clean floor of the chamber.

Julian looked down and counted 7 things.

One looked like an oversized locket, 3 looked like a sinister-looking orange grape- two with a red color and the other grayish blue, another looked like a date fruit, and the last 2 looked like fist-sized balls of pure qi.

Shortly after he appeared, Lilith was finally done as she picked up the 2 red-colored sinister-looking grape fruits and the illusory objects that looked like fist-sized balls of pure qi before turning and showing them to Lord Zaratul.

Julian raised his eyebrows as he asked a silent question.

Subjected to his gaze, Lilith blushed slightly then she explained. "After you gave me the Primordial Blood Fruit, I’ve been feeling guilty as I realized that since your awakening, I’ve not gotten any gift to give you yet".

"I was so excited by you waking up that I completely forgot to celebrate it".

"So the moment you told me to look for things to accelerate the growth of a low-ranking Witch, I remembered that you’re currently weak and recovering too so I thought to get a few for you too".

"I was able to find these". She pushed her hands towards him.

She gestured at the 2 red-colored sinister-looking grape fruits. "These are Demon Essence fruits, they contain the life essence of dead Demons".

"They can boost a Demon to rapidly level up.

"And these 2," she gestured at the illusory objects that looked like fist-sized balls of pure qi. "These are sealed Chaos Qi". She smiled.

"You’ve used them before so you should know their effects. The first time that I met you, you gave me one of these," she reminisced with a sweet smile on her face. "They’ll stimulate your qi to rapidly grow exponentially".

She looked at the fruits on her hands. "They should help you recover significantly".

"I spent a lot of favors to acquire them but with a war coming up soon, I felt that this was the perfect time to gift you these".

Julian didn’t focus on her last sentence as he instead focused on the one before that. ’Significantly?’ He was surprised.

Knowing that Lilith would not throw that word around casually, he instantly became interested. ’Are they truly that potent?’

He didn’t stand on ceremony.

With a smile, he took one of the 2 illusory fist-sized ball of pure qi. He observed it for a few seconds then he threw it into his mouth and chewed.

The moment he swallowed, Julian felt a chaotic sensation in his stomach like invisible blades were cutting at his innards.

The sensation ended as swiftly as it started, and then the Debauchery System lit up with a new notification.

DING!

~----~

[You have ingested a sealed Chaos Qi!]

[Extreme qi stimulation detected!]

[Calculating level growth... please wait...!]

[Calculations complete!]

[You have leveled up to Level 32!]

[EXP to Level 33: 40,437,387,000/48,246,464,000]

...

[You have leveled up to Level 33!]

[EXP to Level 34: 40,437,387,000/48,246,464,000]

...

[You have leveled up to Level 34!]

[EXP to Level 35: 40,437,387,000/48,246,464,000]

~----~

Julian stared at the thread of system notifications in a daze. ’I leveled up 3 times instantly?’

He immediately stared at the last sealed Chaos Qi in Lilith’s hand again, and this time there was a greedy look in his eyes.

His brain whirred. ’How rare are these sealed Chaos Qi?’

’How many do I need to take to level up to Level 100?’

Seeing the fervent look in his eyes, Lilith smiled in satisfaction as this was the greatest validation she needed to know that her gift was appreciated.

She gave Lord Zaratul the other sealed Chaos Qi and without hesitation, Julian also swallowed it.

He experienced the same process again, and then...

DING!

~----~

[You have ingested a sealed Chaos Qi!]

[Qi stimulation detected!]

[Calculating level growth... please wait...!]

[Calculations complete!]

[You have leveled up to Level 35!]

[EXP to Level 35: 40,437,387,000/48,246,464,000]

...

[Congratulations! You have unlocked the two Level 35 C Rank Adept Mage Skills: Forest Roots & Shadow Clones]

>Forest Roots: When activated, you can conjure thick forest roots to entangle, trap, and with better control and incantation even strangle targets.

>Shadow Clones: When activated, you can conjure 5 identical shadow clones of yourself to trick enemies.

~----~

The first thing that Julian realized was, ’I leveled up only once’.

The math immediately reconciled in his head as he could not help but sigh. ’Of course, the effect will diminish after each use’.

’I doubt I’ll be able to level up again if I ingest another sealed Chaos Qi’.

All his previous calculations on how to exploit the loophole and catapult himself to Level 100 immediately went down the drain.

In hindsight, he should have expected it. Afterall, if it was that easy to level up, his high-ranking subordinates would not have been stuck in their current ranks for such a long time.

Despite the disappointment, Julian didn’t let it affect him as he paid attention to the 2 new skills that he just unlocked after getting to Level 35.

He already read about both skills in the Library previously, but still, he was thrilled to finally unlock them himself.

Both were self-explanatory.

Forest Roots would give him a different weapon in his arsenal during battles. As for Shadow Clones, it was a weaker and far more diminished version of the Advanced Shadow Clone that he got from Sir Alfred through the partial Soul Pact.

Unlike Advanced Shadow Clone, Shadow Clones can only conjure a maximum of 5 identical shadow clones and each shadow clone cannot substitute for the original.

Each shadow clone remains a shadow clone, meaning a high-ranking Illusionist can still easily see through the trick and pinpoint his real body unlike Advanced Shadow Clone where each shadow clone can become the real him with a mere thought.

Despite this, Julian was not disappointed.

Shadow Clones still had their use because unlike the advanced version, with his vast qi reserves, he could theoretically use the Shadow Clones Skill infinitely and spam it endlessly just like he did with his other skills, especially Aether Bolts.

Julian finally paid attention to the 2 red sinister-looking grape fruits that were in Lilith’s hand.
