Spectral Possession

Swoosh!

A sudden burst of darkness exploded from the weird Undead that Twin-gun Revenant trying to kill right now. It was earlier he felt the presence of a powerful bloodline, the presence is enough to make him go crazy, wanting to devour whatever it is and evolve its own bloodline.

Since the weird Undead is weak, the bloodline inside of him couldn't be sensed properly.

Most of it was definitely sealed away.

Knowing that the Twin-gun Revenant could only feel the urge to devour the weird Undead climbing higher. If he could put his hands on that weird Undead, then he would've become stronger and possibly broken away from this prison.

But at this moment, the Twin-gun Revenant realized that it was the wrong move.

It turns out he was trying to chew more than he could swallow, the burst of darkness, gushing from Blake's body forces him to stagger back. And in an instant, his ungodly senses were screaming at him.

Averting his eyes left and right, the Twin-gun Revenant started to feel ultimate fear.

The dark fog that was the cause of its skill started to move weirdly, influenced by Blake's new presence. In addition, the Twin-gun Revenant could hear eerie laughter penetrating his ears coming from his own dark fog.

For a moment there, it feels like his own power is laughing at him.

Roar!!

Under the huge stress that he was experiencing right now, the Twin-gun Revenant roared angrily at the dark fog, almost as if he had gone insane. But then, his eyes were pulled back to Blake who slowly emerged from the surge of darkness.

Charing his flintlock pistols again, the Twin-gun Revenant prepared himself to fight again.

It was at that moment, his arms slowly went back down.

Blake slowly stands back up under the Twin-gun Revenant's eyes, however, the monster needs to tilt his head up finding that Blake has become taller than him. Not only was he taller, but he also floats in the air.

Under the Specter Tears effect, Blake finds himself undergoing Spectral Possession.

Not a hint of pain can be felt throughout the transformation process, but Blake could feel the surge of cold power inside of him that adopts a forceful nature, intruding on his own body without a moment of pause.

Additionally, his entire demeanor and attire changed.

Instead of the equipment he was wearing before, Blake is now covered in thick shadows that almost look liquid due to how dense it was, flowing down on his body like a waterfall. His face and the left side of his body can't be seen, they were covered by a black robe whilst his legs were changing forms from normal to shadowy frequently.

Just the sight alone could terrify the man with the strongest willpower.

Feeling the new sensation that his body is experiencing, Blake then slowly opens his eyes which still have the same color but brighter thanks to the dark contrast his entire appearance adopts.

When earlier he could feel fear, now the Twin-gun Revenant feels despair.

It was akin to seeing its own creator, the sight petrified his entire body and rooted him still.

Blake didn't waste a moment before he moved his body.

Although he floated over to the Twin-gun Revenant in a slow and composed manner, his movement seems to be absolute and brought about extreme eeriness. He then looks down at the Hidden Boss before he reaches out his arm which is now greyish in color, and his fingers were now black claws.

Slowly, Blake penetrated the Twin-gun Revenant's body with his claws.

A meaty sound was produced as Blake's black claws were embedded inside the Twin-gun Revenant's chest. Following that, he then gripped the heart and pull it out with one swift motion.

Splash!

Not even needing to struggle, Blake managed to kill the Hidden Boss in one hit. It was a surprise even for him, he couldn't believe that he was able to penetrate the Two-gun Revenant's skin like butter with his black claws.

Moreover, he also saw three dropped items from killing the Hidden Boss.

Out of the three items, two of them glowed with yellow light while the last one glowed blue.

Judging from their colors alone, the yellow items should be C-grade items while the item that glowed blue is a B-grade item. Blake went over to the dropped items and grabbed them to check what items he got.

Although it was not perfect, the dropped items from the Hidden Boss are quite good.

Maybe he would sell the Ungodly Twin Pistols as he has no use for it, but the other two were a great addition for him. It's a bummer that the B-grade item is not compatible with him, but that's fine for him.

'Haze Bomb...? Is it a skill similar to the Hat Trick that Undead used earlier?'

Blake is inspecting the Charm of Dark Haze and ponders for a brief moment. If the Haze Bomb is a skill that created a dark fog around him like the Hat Trick skill, then that item is definitely the best one out of the three.

It will be very useful if he was forced to fight under the sun and had limited shadow areas.

Nodding his head, he then gazes back at himself.

Since the effect will last until he decided to stop it, Blake finds it a waste if he didn't make use of it fully, 'I don't think deactivating it now would be a good idea. Hmm... maybe I'll wipe out the entire dungeon before deactivating it'

Deciding on what to do, Blake then pointed his hand towards the closed gate.

Leading the dark power inside of him that is obeying his every demand, he couldn't help but smile as this is a new feeling, 'Is this how it would feel if my mastery over the Shadowblood Manipulation increases? Feels good'

Crash!

Blake blasted the gate open with a burst of dark energy.

The gate stand no chance against his power, and he now could freely roam the dungeon.

Meanwhile, about ten minutes later.

It's been quite a while since Blake left to do something earlier, Angel is waiting patiently inside the cell but she then peeks outside, "What takes him so long...? It's almost half an hour already. Did he ditch me?" She mutters inwardly.

"No, he's clearly head over heels for me. It's not possible" Angel denied, shaking her head.

Upon deciding that she would wait a little more before trying to find Blake, her eyes widened when she saw a prompt from the system stating that the Hidden Boss has been killed. Not long after, the Boss of the Dungeon was also killed.

It seems everyone inside the dungeon got this prompt.

"Pheww... we've been trying to find the Hidden Boss but didn't have any luck"

"Yeah, how the freak did anyone find it? Must be lucky I guess"

"Do you want to find that party and kill them? Who knows? Maybe we'll get their loot and also their gold. We'll split the money evenly when we exchanged it later"

"Really now? We're going to play dirty already? But then again, that sounds fun"

Angel's surprise was halted when she heard a group of people talking, it seems these people are players judging from how they were bantering with each other. But she decided to not mind them and rested in the prison cell she was in.

It's quite scary to be alone, but knowing that there are other people here helps her greatly.

But as she was closing her eyes, a voice forces her to open her eyes.

"Oh...? Who do we have here? An elf woman inside a prison cell alone? If that's not seduction at its finest then I don't know what is" A man that seemed to be a rogue said, smiling from ear to ear at the sight of Angel.

Following that, another man wearing a robe and a staff peeked inside and smiled.

"Woaah, she's hot. Hey, girl, you want to have fun with us?"

Upon hearing this, Angel clicked her tongue in displeasure finding herself in this kind of situation. Lifting her chin arrogantly, she then replied and raises her middle finger, "Piss off losers, I'd rather kill myself compared to being near people like you"

"Fiesty, I like it. Hey, you're a player, right?" the rogue man asked and stepped inside.

Stepping closer in hubris, the rogue man then continues with a teasing grin, "Why not join our party? We can guarantee that you'll have fun with us. Instead of being alone, it's better to play the game with companies, no?"

"I have a party already. If I were you, I'd leave this before he comes back" Angel replied.

Listening to her cold words, the rogue man becomes even more excited as he laughs in ridicule. "He? Is he your boyfriend? It's four against one, your boyfriend will not stand a chance. Come with us if you don't want to see us beat the crap out of your boyfriend"

Angel was about to curse at the man but stopped abruptly and her eyes widened.

"Boyfriend! I was waiting for you, what took you so long?" Angel mused with a mellifluous voice and quickly ran past the party of players, and quickly went to the embrace of a figure standing at the entrance of the prison cell.

Upon seeing this, the rogue man and his comrade glanced back at the entrance.

But in that instant, their eyes jolted open almost popping out of their sockets at the sight of a dark figure looking at them menacingly. He just stands there, fixing his cold eyes at the party of players that are inside the prison cell already.

Looking back at the rogue man, Angel then smiled teasingly.

"You said you're going to beat the crap out of him, right? Well, here he is. I won't stop you so why don't you go ahead and try...?"

The rogue man gulps harshly at this sight, "W- What the fuck is that?!"
