After browsing through the upgrades of rare skills, Su Xi took out the [Random Legendary Skill Book for This Class].

To be honest, this was her first time opening such an item. She had never encountered it in her previous life. Getting a rare skill book was already the best she could hope for; how could she possibly get a legendary skill book?

All I can say is that I might get the first kill in this lifetime, thanks to the luck boost from the Elf Saintess.

Su Xi took a deep breath to calm her nerves and opened the skill book.

"Ding! [Random Legendary Skill Book for Your Class] successfully activated. Congratulations on obtaining [Eternal Occupy Lv.1]."

Eternal Occupy?

What strange skill names...

Su Xi muttered something to herself, then looked at the details of the skill.

[Eternal Occupy Lv.1]

Cost: 10,000 mana, one unremovable curse

Active effect: Cast on a life that died within 24 hours, reviving the target and inflicting the [Beloved] curse. Cooldown: 30 days.

[Beloved]: The witch may not love you, but you must support the person who resurrected you. The life that is cursed will develop 100% love for the witch and will unconditionally obey her will.

Limitation: Any life resurrected through this method will not have the skill active upon the next death.

This... this... this...

Su Xi stared wide-eyed at the skill description in disbelief.

This skill mentions resurrection; could it be a real-world resurrection?

For an average player, seeing that this skill requires 10,000 mana and has an unremovable curse, and that resurrection is so troublesome, has such a long cooldown, and comes with some kind of "beloved" curse, they would probably think it's a trash skill.

But Su Xi knew that the higher the rarity level, the more restrictions there were, and the stranger the skills seemed, the more they were based on real-world performance standards.

The description of this skill is undoubtedly based on reality!

"My God... a 30-day cooldown means I can resurrect 12 dead people a year!"

Su Xi was shocked after reading the skill description.

But they quickly calmed down.

The main advantage is that the [Yūko Helsatez] avatar also has a resurrection skill, and its casting restrictions are much fewer than those of [Eternal Occupy].

That is, the life resurrected by Xiao You will be fixed as an undead type of zombie, whose weakness is sunlight. They will dehydrate when exposed to the sun, and Xiao You will experience even more intense pain when using this skill.

Just thinking about that kind of pain made Su Xi's legs tremble.

While having an extra resurrection skill is a good option, this resurrection skill inflicts an additional "Beloved" curse on the opponent, which seems to be no different from turning them into a zombie.

As for releasing [Eternal Occupy], which requires an additional unremovable curse, Su Xi felt that this was actually easy to handle. It just depended on whether the person who needed to be resurrected was worth making wear the Touch Garment.

Su Xi knew that the item, if worn continuously for one day, would inflict a curse of Joy: the "Unremovable chunk of flesh." This curse belonged to the Pleasure Deity and was therefore impossible to remove...

If Su Xi uses this curse to revive someone, then the Touch Garment will naturally become something that can be taken off.

"It feels like the price of this resurrection is actually quite high, for both the other side and me..."

Su Xi couldn't help but ask curiously.

The main problem was that she couldn't think of any other reliably obtainable, unremovable curses, and Su Xi was reluctant to use up the curses on her body such as [Gaze of Fear] and [Death's Shadow].

Shaking her head, Su Xi decided to stop thinking about this skill for the time being.

Taking out the 5 [Talent Enhancement Chest], Su Xi activated her talent and transformed into Kurumi.

"Hopefully this time I can get some useful skills." Kurumi closed her eyes and prayed for a while.

"Ding, [Talent Enhancement Chest Successfully], Congratulations on the increase in proficiency of your talent skill [Dimensional Avatar: Tokisaki Kurumi], Third Bullet skill level +2, Dalet skill level +1, talent [Charm] evolved, Time Value limit +1000."

Well...

It was a very ordinary enhancement; there were no surprises.

Is it because Kurumi Incarnation's incarnation has bad luck?

Otherwise, why would it always guarantee +1 skill level? Zafkiel's talent should be further evolved!

Kurumi was speechless for a moment, then looked at the upgraded skills.

"Third Bullet Level 3"

Cost: 30 Time Value

Passive effect: Increases own base attributes by 15%.

Active effect: When a target is hit, base attributes are increased by 50%. If the target is yourself, the passive effect will be increased to 65% for 10 seconds. Cooldown is 1 minute.

It's alright.

This skill upgrade greatly increases Kurumi Incarnation's transformation output, especially with the duration increased to 10 seconds, which is indeed a significant buff.

"Dalet (Dalet) LV.2"

Cost: 40 Time Value

Passive effect: Generates a Time Reversal Shield every 19 seconds. (Time Reversal Shield effect: Fully restores the shield after 1 second if damage is received; if the damage received exceeds the maximum health, the time reversal will not occur.)

Active effect: When a target is hit, all their statuses are reverted to ten seconds prior. Cooldown: 50 seconds.

The upgrade to this skill only reduces the cooldown time slightly. Since the Dalet isn't used very often to begin with, this slight reduction in cooldown is negligible...

Kurumi then looked at her upgraded talent.

[Stunning Beauty] (Advanced Talent)

Effect: All intelligent beings who know you (Epic level and below) have an initial affinity of +15. When affinity increases, the affinity is doubled, and you also gain the passive status [Femme Fatale].

[Femme Fatale]: You are more likely to attract the attention of certain individuals...

This talent upgrade has both advantages and disadvantages.

When facing NPCs in Kurumi Incarnation's form, the NPC's initial favorability increases by 15, which undoubtedly reduces a lot of trouble and increases the probability of accepting hidden quests.

Moreover, the probability of doubling the favorability becomes 100%.

It's this passive state of "Femme Fatale"...

Judging from the description of this status, it seems that when fighting a boss in a team, Kurumi is more likely to attract the boss's Kurumi.

If Kurumi Incarnation is a tank, then this passive state is quite good.

Well, this talent upgrade is appropriate.

The final [Talent Enhancement Chest] increases the Time Value cap by 1000 points, a moderate boost.

Currently, Kurumi Incarnation's transformation Time Value cap is 2200 points. If you're using the full Time Value to fight a boss, you shouldn't need to be overly frugal with the Time Value.

The enhancement of Kurumi Incarnation is complete.

"[Switch Avatar: Yūko Helsatez]!"

The alluring red figure transformed into a white-haired, taciturn loli.

Take out the [Equipment Awakening Gold Stone].

"Ding! The Equipment Awakening Gold Stone is extremely valuable. Are you sure you want to use it to unlock the weapon for [Dimensional Avatar: Yūko Helsatez]?"

Xiao You maintained her taciturn persona, remaining silent and quietly clicking "Yes" on the system.
