Chapter: 8
Pulling myself out of the wall I walked forward and popped my shoulder back into place it was dislocated when I was punched into the wall. The remaining nine Rulers were standing before me weapons at the ready well spells if you count the mage Ruler.
"Dealing with that one first."
Multiple gates opened behind me numbering in the tens. weapons emerged from the gates and opened fire on eight of the nine Rulers. Stepping off with a burst of speed appearing in front of the mage Ruler. Before the Ruler could fire off the spell four Gates of Babylon appeared above the Ruler and Enkidu shot from the gates and bound down the Ruler. Activating Excalibur and Caliburn's abilities and swung the blades at the Ruler destroying the Ruler's top half of its body. My sensory abilities spiked and I jumped out of the way of a sword strike aimed at my head. Turning around I saw the remaining Rulers walking toward me with weapons sticking out of their bodies said weapons were being pushed out of their bodies and the injuries were healing.
"Well, shit they have healing capabilities. Wait!"
Looking over to the Rulers I had defeated before and noticed that their bodies were healing.
"You have got to be joking."
That means nothing less than noble phantasms or attacks that permanently kill them then joy. And they aren't going to give me a chance to do so their goal is to kill me nothing less I need some new skills now but what should I…. I got it but I need space.
Returning Caliburn to the treasury and retrieving the Frostreaper. Stabbing Excalibur into the ground and grasping the Frostreaper with both hands as the Rulers rushed at me channeling mana into the scythe with the help of my mana-oriented skills causing a white aura that was freezing the ground below me.
"Freeze it all."
Just as the Rulers were just a few feet away from me I swung the scythe unleashing white energy as the energy washed over the Rulers it froze them, the area behind them, and the Rulers that were regenerating in a thick layer of mana-infused ice.

As I finished creating the skills the ice that froze the Rulers shattered and rushed at me. A Ruler with a sword appeared in front of me with the sword swung at my head. Flipping over the strike and grabbing its face.
"Rot attack."
A light feint purple light was emitted from my hand then the Ruler's head disintegrated and a sudden burst of pain shot through me. I grunted in pain looking down at my hand I saw that it was missing landing on the ground grabbed Excalibur then vanished with a burst of speed getting some distance from the Rulers. Looking down at my destroyed hand that was regenerating.
Should have expected that.
Increasing the amount of mana being used to regenerate my hand speeding it up.
[Skill Rot Attack leveled up]
[Skill High-speed Regeneration leveled up]

This is not going to be fun.
Picking up Excalibur I started to flow Rot Attribute over it. I sprinted toward the Rulers.
Let's see if this will work.
Excalibur lit ablaze with mana once more but instead of the typical gold, it had a light purple coloration mixed into it. Vanished in a burst of speed appearing in front of the mage Ruler.
"Rot…Excalibur."
Unleashing the slash a massive arc of purplish gold energy was released destroying the Ruler's body and anything that was left disintegrated by the effects of the Rot Attribute. I vanished in another burst of speed appearing in front of the Ruler with the whip and unleashed another attack destroying it as well. My sensory ability activated but it was too slow I felt an attack hitting my back sending me into a wall. Pushing myself out of the wall and turned to face the Rulers.
This is going to get exhausting I need to end this now… hmm how to wait can't the new skill I got World of Frost shouldn't be able to merge it with the Rot Attribute like what I did with Excalibur?
I activated the World of Frost and the Rot Attribute together mixing them together.
You learned skill (Rotting Ice lv.1)
"Perfect."
I started to use my mana-oriented skills to amplify the power of the skill to the max.

The Rulers sensing the massive increase in mana rushed at me.
"Too late. Rot within the frozen tundra."
Slamming my hands onto the ground a wave exploded towards the Rulers when it made contact with the Rulers it disintegrated them on contact covering the throne room with ice that had a slight light purple hue.

I collapsed to my knees breathing heavily I slowly got up waiting for my mana to refill while absorbing mana from the air to hasten the process. When my mana amount reached a point I found acceptable I walked over to the Absolute Being, being mindful to avoid the ice. I stood before the Absolute Being with a neutral expression.
"So was that entertaining enough for you? So let me guess you're the final boss?"
"I'm not going to fight you that's what the Rulers were for and I'm certain you know that."
"That's because you can't fight and look where that got you.
"And that's what you are here for to reprimand my mistake and that's what this test was to see if you were strong enough to inherit the rest of my powers."
"I see but couldn't you resurrect yourself with the cup of reincarnation?"
"And where would get me? Dead at later date?"
"Fair point, so how is this going to work?"
"That is simple."
The Absolute said raising his hand and I realized that it was fading into silver energy.
"You were fading."
"Indeed."
"Very well then let's get this over with."
I walked over to the Absolute then his body turned into a mass of silver and gold energy and rushed over me and started to be absorbed into my body. While this was happening the energy lifted me into the air. As the last bit of energy was being absorbed I heard one last comment from the Absolute Being.
"Let's see if you make some of the same mistakes I did."
Floating down to the floor clenching my fist I said.
"I won't."
[Your Job is "Creator".]
"He couldn't do anything better for suspense huh?"
[Will you accept your job]

"Hmm, what does Creator do?"
[Creator: amplify the effects of all creation skills by 30%]
"And Skill Collector?"
[Skill Collector: the user can duplicate and distribute skills or take skills at will]
"Oh, then it will help me with what I'm going to do next, hmm but what to make first a Ruler or a Monarch choices choices. Hmm, might as well fit the theme but I'm going to stray far away from it."
I sighed as I activated Ruler Creation and all of my mana-orientated skills trying to make this Ruler as strong as possible. I started to picture a woman with cascading white hair that glows like moonlight and eyes of shimmering gold. Clad in a robe of pure white, adorned with golden armor, bearing six pairs of majestic wings and a halo above head while bestowing the skill skills Rotting Tundra, Rot Resistance, Mana Cultivator, Mana manipulation, Mana Reactor, Dominators touch, High-speed Regeneration, World of Frost, and Rot Attribute.
White and gold energy was released from my body and formed a humanoid figure. When the energy dispelled it revealed the exact woman I described the only difference was the fact she was taller than me by a few centimeters around 186 cm or so. She kneeled and then said.
"Greetings master."
