Lich Overlord

Moments before the arrival of Exitium

Notifications sounded in Ossa—no, rather Francesco's mind—as his soul absorbed the essence of the philosopher's stones.

His power, which had been the greatest in his era, was nothing compared to what Ossa had garnered for him. And now, with a new boost from the philosopher's stone, he seemed to transform both in spirit and mind, the entirety of his being morphing into a powerful entity.

One who, even though not a god, could go toe-to-toe with most of the first-generation gods: the advocate of death, a companion of the grim reaper, the lich overlord.

His power had risen to heights beyond measure, allowing him to feel the life force of every creature in Lumen City and beyond. With greater effort, he could even sense the life forces all across the Lux continent.
