[The Power Stone - Legendary Item

Aspect of the Universe = Power.

The Power Stone represents the aspect of power of the universe, when used it increases the user's physical abilities, allowing the user to manipulate energy, which, when used at full potential, has enough power to obliterate an entire planet when unleashed.

WARNING: Unlike the other stones, this one consumes energy when equipped, and will continue to consume energy for as long as the user has it equipped, be it mana, cosmic energy, or other, should the user have no energy to supply, the stone will consume HP, should the user have no HP, it will kill the user erasing it.

Recommended LEVEL = 220]

A warning, what a novelty, perhaps it's because of the stone's nature, but who cares, I mean, I had two infinity stones, and before the canon even started, how wonderful was that?

I would later see how big was the cost of having the stone.

"I guess it's time to equip it," I smiled, this last month had been wonderful for me, I guess in a way, I owned Juggernaut a lot, without his EXP reward, I would still be struggling on the high hundreds.

[Space Stone Unequipped]

Time to see the rewards on the Power Stone.

[Do you wish to equip the Power stone?

YES/NO

Click ? for more information.]

I pressed YES.

[The Power Stone has been equipped]

[Do you wish to reveal the Power Ranking of the universe?

YES/NO

Click ? for more information.]

Power Ranking, well ain't that interesting.

If this was what I thought it was, it would help me a ton, I mean, if this really showed me how strong my enemies were, then I would be able to prepare accordingly.

So, without further ado, I pressed yes.

[Power Ranking Unlocked]

[The Ladder of the Cosmos has been revealed!

+9978999977 EXP]

[LEVEL UP!]

Holy fuck, more levels, yeih!

[Hidden Quest Completed: No one shall escape my sight!

Levels represent the power of an individual, and you have the eye to see their true strength, so leave no one out of your sight! Find everyone's level!

Rewards: The Boons of The Living Tribunal x 10.

Additional Reward: True Observe.]

True Observe?

I already have something like that, unless this is an upgrade of sorts.

Let's check that.

[True Observe LV - MAX = This skill allows the user to quickly gather information about the enemy with a simple glance.

Nothing escapes your powerful sight!]

Not much to go by.

Perhaps I need to use it to see how it works.

Time to visit the Ancient One.

But first, let's see how much mana does the stone consumes anyways, I mean, it did have a warning.

[HP = 1,100,000/1,100,000

MP = 1,000,500/1,190,500]

1 % of my mana per second, when equipped.

Not bad, considering I regen exactly the same per second.

The real question is, how much mana would it consume when in real use.

I'll find out later.

For now, time to check what True Observe means.

—--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I opened a portal to the Ancient One, who upon my arrival sighed.

"Am I bothering?" I asked her.

"Not more than usual," she replied with a small chuckle, "So, in what can I be of assistance, Mr. Walker?"

Time to see how this power works.

[The Ancient One - LV 219

Previous Name = Yao

Age = 681 Years Old.

Biological Age = 29 Years Old.

Gender = Female

The Ancient One, previously known as Yao, is currently the Sorcerer Supreme of Earth as well as the leader of the Masters of the Mystic Arts. For centuries, the Ancient One has dedicated her life to protecting the Earth from mystical threats and to helping others in need by educating them in the magical arts to give them new hope.

Relationship = She finds you indispensable for earth's safety and has plans in motion to protect you should it be needed.

Heart's Desire = To be free of Dormmamu's hold.

Current Thought = She is wondering why you have come to visit her again and is worried it might be related to her vision.]

"No, just wanted to test something out," I replied, closing the tab, True Observe was intrusive as fuck.

"Oh, and what were you testing?" The Ancient One smiled, index finger pressed upon her lip.

"Nothing," I chuckled, "See you later," I waved at her.

"I am sure that will be rater soon," She giggled, "Oh well, it is the price I pay for being so nice,"

"You are quite funny when you want to be," I snorted, opening a portal to my house.

"Well, in my youth, I was quite the comedian," She grinned ever so gently.

"I don't doubt it," I chuckled, stepping into the portal.

[The Ancient One POV]

A vision had troubled me.

A sorceress of great power was hunting Alex.

One that had in her power, the darkest book of spells in all of existence.

The Darkhold.

I didn't doubt of Alex's power, in fact, he was already stronger than me in many ways, he only lacked the experience to back his power up.

The point was, I was confident in his power.

But, I was also wary of the power within the Darkhold.

And how could I not?

The Darkhold, also known as the Book of Sins, or the Book of the Damned, was an ancient book of spells that held unspeakable power. The book in its entirety was made of dark matter from the Hell Dimension, making it even more dangerous.

Some records even say it holds every dark spell in the universe.

Even those that have not been written yet.

The question was, what did that Witch wanted from Alex?

"I have no idea what you want from Alex little enchantress, but… you caught my attention and that… that was a mistake," No matter what she wanted with Alex, I would stop her, the Darkhold was enough reason to eliminate her, that she wanted to use it on Alex, that was just a bonus to convince me to act.
