Sifa slept until noon, waking to the brilliant sunlight streaming through the window. He sat up and felt that his Spirituality had fully recovered.
He also sensed that he had digested a substantial portion of his Reaper potion overnight.
Judging by the name alone, the acting code for the Reaper potion should be to reap lives. In other words, even without knowing its deeper acting principles, I can digest the potion as long as I reap enough lives.
As Sifa washed up, he pondered the acting code for this stage.
That isn't surprising at all. After all, the Hunter Pathway is itself a road of iron and blood. The Sequence 4 potion is called Iron-blooded Knight, so it makes sense that large-scale destruction and plunder would be involved starting from Sequence 5.
By that reasoning, I could say I reaped the life of an evil god last night. Even if Astuka was probably the lowest sort of evil god, he had already transcended the concept of a human.
So it's perfectly normal that reaping his life allowed me to digest a substantial portion of the potion. If I went through something similar again, I might finish digesting it on the spot.
Wiping his face, Sifa shrugged. "Even if I finished digesting the potion now, what good would it do? I don't have the Iron-blooded Knight potion yet, so I couldn't advance anyway."
