Sacrifice's Rise: I Became Invincible After Entering Godslayer Temple

Chapter 398 398-An Unexpected Gain

As John defeated Flame Vanguard, Emma finally received the game system's notification.

[Ding, congratulations to player (Emma) for achieving the highest level in fire spells.]

[Ding, congratulations to player (Emma) for obtaining the hidden title: Empress of Flames.]

[Hidden Title: Empress of Flames]

[Special Effects: Fire elemental magic power increased by 20%, fire elemental magic resistance increased by 60%, affinity with fire elements increased by 100%.]

[Ding, congratulations to player (Emma) for gaining the attention of the Fire God. Player (Emma) has officially become a favored one of the Fire God. The Fire God is watching over you; continue to fight for the Fire God!]

A series of game system notifications brought a radiant smile to Emma's face.

She initially thought this battle would only enable her to max out her fire spells.

Yet, unexpectedly, it granted her the hidden title of Empress of Flames and officially made her a favored one of the Fire God.

In the game Godslayer, any entity equivalent to a deity can bestow their blessings.

In game mechanics, this means each deity of Order Fiction can impart a portion of their power to players.

Of course, Devils from Dark Fiction can also grant their power to players, but such blessings usually come with numerous negative effects due to the differing natures of the deities from Order and Dark Fictions.

After understanding the effects of her hidden title and her new status as a favored one of the Fire God, Emma shared this information with John.

John was slightly surprised, as he was the one who ultimately defeated the Flame Vanguard.

Why then was Emma receiving such attention?

And why had the Fire God chosen her as a favored one?

However, John's surprise didn't last long, as he soon received a system notification himself.

[Ding, congratulations to player (Galewind) for receiving the blessing of the Fire God! Please continue to fight for the Fire God!]

The Fire God had not only blessed Emma but also bestowed his blessing upon John.

The reason why the Fire God's blessing didn't impact John much was due to his already immense strength.

John's level could be said to be the highest in the entire Godslayer game.

Additionally, his special title [Godslayer] put him on a similar level to the deities in terms of rank.

Having understood the situation, John smiled at Emma and said, "You are now one of the top-tier players in the game server. Maybe you'll be able to complete your quests alone without any help from me. I can focus on my own tasks now."

Emma's smile faded instantly upon hearing John's words.

She seemed very anxious and spoke to John in a slightly aggrieved tone.

"Did I do something wrong? Why won't you offer me any help in the future? Although my strength has improved, I still need your assistance. Are you planning to leave me?"

Tears welled up in Emma's eyes, catching John off guard.

His intention wasn't to stop adventuring with Emma.

He simply felt that Emma was now capable enough to protect herself.

"I didn't mean I don't want to act with you anymore.

I just thought that with your current strength, you can complete quests on your own. You don't need my help.

It's a reason for happiness, not dislike. Don't overthink it."

John's explanation did little to uplift her mood.

Emma's spirits remained low, and she even began to sob softly.

Faced with this, John hastily continued, "Alright, alright, I'll accompany you on future adventures. No matter how strong you become, I won't let you venture alone. Is that okay now?"

Emma finally smiled again. "You have to keep your word and not lie to me! You'll join me on all future missions and protect me!"

"When have I ever lied to you? I'm a man of my word. Since I've said so, I'll definitely provide complete protection on our future missions.

Now that we've completed our quest in the Lava Valley, let's head back.

You need to adjust to your new status as well.

After all, your fire spells have just reached their maximum level, and mastering them will require some practice.

I need to go to Blue Sea Guild for a very important discussion with Blue Sea."

Emma nodded without saying much more.

She understood that John had more important matters to attend to, and she deeply trusted the promise he had made to her.

With that, Emma returned to the training ground in Storm City, while John headed straight for the Blue Sea Guild.

Upon arriving at the entrance of the guild, John noticed a suspicious figure lurking around.

Clearly, this figure was an assassin.

After using [Eye of Artemis], John instantly obtained detailed information about the stealthy individual.

[Unknown Assassin]

[Game Level: 52]

[Affiliation: Neutral Faction, AGHHO]

John hadn't expected AGHHO to send a new assassin so soon after the auction house conflict, and it seemed this one wasn't very skilled.

Opting not to draw attention, John stayed hidden and observed the assassin's movements.

Sensing something amiss and employing [Invisibility], the unknown assassin tried to leave.

At this point, John couldn't let the assassin escape and discreetly used [Abyssal Prison].

With the spell activated, the unknown assassin was trapped right at the entrance of the Blue Sea Guild.

The assassin appeared extremely panicked, unable to comprehend how he had become unable to escape from the entrance of the Blue Sea Guild.

As he frantically considered how to extricate himself, the doors of the Blue Sea Guild opened, and Blue Sea, along with several guild members, stepped out.

As a favored one of the Sea God and one of the top-ranked players in the game Godslayer, Blue Sea immediately noticed the invisible unknown assassin.

"Who's there?! Show yourself!"

With Blue Sea's commanding shout, a blue wave emanated from his right hand, carrying the blessing of the Sea God.

Wherever the blue wave reached, everything was clearly revealed to Blue Sea.

The invisibility effect of the unknown assassin naturally failed under Blue Sea's skill.

"Only a level 52 assassin? Are you sent by AGHHO?!" Blue Sea was furious.

After all, he was there to welcome John and had not expected a member of AGHHO to dare to gather information right at the entrance of his guild.

Before the unknown assassin could respond, John's voice emerged from a corner nearby.

"Of course, he is an assassin from AGHHO. But I don't think his visit here is necessarily to complete an AGHHO quest.

AGHHO wouldn't be foolish enough to send someone like him to risk exposure at your guild's entrance."

Everyone turned towards the source of the voice as John stepped out of the shadows, smiling at the AGHHO assassin trapped by Blue Sea.

"What's your real purpose here?

I've been watching you.

You didn't seem to be planning to infiltrate the Blue Sea Guild.

Did you come here just to gather information about the entrance?

I doubt there's any vital information at the entrance of the Blue Sea Guild. Or are you here to assassinate me?"

John's appearance instantly drew everyone's attention.

Although he spoke softly and hadn't used any offensive skills, the unknown assassin was visibly terrified upon seeing John, sensing that John's strength far exceeded his expectations.

Overwhelmed by fear, the unknown assassin forgot to answer John's question.

John didn't rush him for an answer but simply instructed Blue Sea to temporarily detain the unknown assassin inside the Blue Sea Guild.
