If Flora's three options had seemed pretty good to Elliot, Vanessa's three were downright godlike skills!
Before reaching tier one, Vanessa had only selected [Spirit Vision +1] and [Restoration +1], without choosing any other attributes.
Perhaps that was why, besides [Debauched Revelry] and [Spirituality Pressure], which had obvious corresponding abilities, there was also [Trigger Volley], which strengthened the Formless Art.
Speaking of [Trigger Volley]-
From Elliot's observations, Vanessa's attacks were far more powerful than a handgun, capable of blasting a hole in a brick wall or even punching straight through multiple layers of heavy shields.
If he chose [Trigger Volley] and expended five or ten fingers at once-
For a moment, Elliot struggled to imagine anything that could stop it. By comparison, Allen, who was supposed to fill a combat role, could not even cut through a shield yet-
This option was simply too tempting. Supernatural powers? Fortresses? Could they withstand a single volley?
Aside from being a little costly in fingers, it basically had no drawbacks!
Then there was the second option, [Debauched Revelry].
Another godlike skill. Never mind anything else; the limitless growth alone was enough to tempt him.
If he chose this option, Elliot's primary objective would probably change immediately from "escape the manor" to "how to efficiently send Vanessa money so she can afford to indulge."
As for Vanessa, she would not have to do anything else. She could just indulge herself every day, gaining attributes each time. Elliot could spend all day stationed in front of the Difference Engine, reinserting her Card for another round as soon as the indulgence progress bar finished.
By the time his confinement ended, his attributes would already be stacked sky-high, and the Empire could welcome its new emperor.
As for the final option, [Spirituality Pressure]-
Elliot hesitated, for once.
