"Great. That's what we need." Blind Sorcerer muttered with a sly look, "Though it was dangerous, he could endure it. After all, his soul is the strongest thing that ever existed."

"Well, that was pretty risky, wasn't it?" Black Sun Aristocrat said while holding his chin.

"Yes... He could have died... You three are real madmen." Cursed Swordsman muttered as he glanced at Blind Sorcerer, Light Racer, and Code of Light and Darkness.

"Hey, don't look at us like that." Light Racer shook his hand in a careless manner, "You agreed to help us, so now you're an accessory. Anyway, that went well."

"I agree." Knight of the Bloody Rose muttered with a serious look, "I wouldn't want to wait three months. That's too long."

"Alright. Now the fun part is about to begin. How glad I am to see it again." Blind Sorcerer uttered with a sly smile on his face.

...

Whooooooooooosh.

The shards of the shattered Soul Altar reassembled, but under the influence of Wain's Main Soul, they began to grow and change. In time, the shards turned into a structure that looked like a massive ancient temple with nine columns, each with some kind of symbol.

In the center of the temple were three torches, one burning brightly with a dark flame while the others waited for their time. In the center of the temple was a jaw-shaped pattern above which a dark crown hovered.

[Soul Temple was created.]

[You have taken another step towards true greatness.]

[Thanks to Soul Temple's energy, you could evolve for the fourth time.]

[You have reached the Fourth Chronicle.]

Tremble.

Wain's aura increased tenfold as he suddenly opened his eyes. All of his wounds that he had received during the battle in the Forgotten Forest were instantly gone, but he felt only one thing - an incredible hunger that seemed impossible to quench.

Wain slowly rose as the dark beasts that lay beside him fled away. They aggressively clenched their teeth while looking at him with a fierce look as they sensed danger from him.

"Fine. You'll be the first." Wain spoke in a scary voice as several jaws appeared next to the shadowy beasts.

The beasts turned and attacked, but the jaws just ate them up, leaving nothing but an energy that flowed toward Wain.

He absorbed it, sighed, and said, "Good... But, it's not enough... Damn, I'm so hungry..."

Wain turned around as his gaze fell on Aurora, that stared at him with eyes wide open while in disbelief.

"How is that possible... You were practically dead just now! Even if you are His heir... How is that possible...?" Aurora muttered as a shiver ran through her body.

Wain paid no attention to her words, he continued to walk slowly forward as, with each step he took, space shuddered. Jaws hovered beside him like ghosts that waited for their next victim.

"There's so much energy in you... Great, you'll fit..." Wain muttered before approaching Aurora.

Whoooooosh.

Suddenly he grabbed her by the neck sharply, then, with a calm look, pulled off all her clothes and threw her to the ground. The jaws went to Wain as they gobbled up his clothes to expose his torso.

"What the fuck is going on here!" Aurora exclaimed, and a stream of purple energy burst out of her that tossed Wain aside.

Aurora slowly opened her eyes, saw Wain lying still, and sighed in relief, "Shit... What was that...? Why did he do that?"

...

"Huh, that was actually pretty harsh." Blind Sorcerer smirked.

"Well, that's okay." Light Racer shrugged, "Those changes that happened to him are just the beginning."

"Yeah. He only saw part of what awaits him." Code of Light and Darkness muttered.

...

Aurora's attack exhausted Wain, but he was still conscious. His hunger went nowhere, but he could no longer pay attention to it, as a multitude of messages prevented him from doing so.

[All Ratings of your skills have been removed.]

[You have lost all your skills.]

[The strength of your forms adjusted to the Fourth Chronicle.]

[You have reached level 100.]

[You have lost all your levels.]

[Your stats are increased by 1500.]

[All your stats are now 3000.]

[You have lost all your stats.]

[You have lost your Additional Soul that was absorbed by your Main Soul.]historical

'What the hell...?' Wain muttered while in disbelief, 'Maybe I'm still dreaming? What the fuck is going on here? Is this a hallucination?'

'No. This is all real. In fact, it's only the beginning.' Blind Sorcerer's voice sounded in his head.

'Is it supposed to be like this? Wain muttered inwardly.

'Yeah. I mean, no, it's supposed to take a long time, go gradually, but you're a human, and you're you, so just enjoy your new power.' The Blind Sorcerer said in a thunderous voice before leaving.

[All of your forms have been given unique weapons.]

[Your Beyond has gained new abilities, so you can use it in a freer form.]

[You have become a Fourth Chronicle creature as now your control over energy has greatly increased. You can change skills to a certain extent to reach the form that you need.]

[Forgotten Blood's Passive Skill has awakened.]

[Forgotten Blood (Unique)

You have gone through many trials and increased your blood purity many times, so now you are stronger and have the ability to reach 100% blood purity. However, you must find a way to do so yourself].

[Your two concepts, Darkness Concept and Dimensional Concept, have become much stronger, as now you are free to use them in any form.]

Whooooooooooosh.

The Dark Crown inside Wain's Soul Temple opened its eye as a powerful stream of energy erupted from Wain.

[You have reached the first stage of Ascension.]

[One of your three Soul Torches burns brightly.]

[As anyone who has reached the Fourth Chronicle, you have the opportunity to one day become a Fifth Chronicle creature whose strongest members are literally as powerful as gods. It's all up to you.]

"Ahhh..." Wain took a deep breath as he passed out.
