OP Sister Chapter 552: Ascended Skill

“Hm... Ugh! Ngh...? Agh!”
Jack groaned after injecting himself with the [Super Evolved Nanomachine Injection (SSS Rank)]. A million nanomachines surged through his bloodstream, fusing with his muscles, bones, tendons, and skin. His Aura flared, releasing sparks of Electromagnetic Energy, a new power unique to Machines, which he could now wield through the Nanomachines in his body.
“Oh, this is... incredible! I feel even more revitalized...” Jack said.
“See? See? Now use the other item!” Anna said, visibly excited for her brother to use her items. To her, it felt like building a powerful character in a role-playing game with overpowered items from a New Game Plus save.
“A scroll...”
Jack opened the [Heavenly Scroll Of Forgotten Martial Arts (SSS Rank)] and read its contents. Runes shaped like Chinese letters flowed from the scroll into his skull, spreading through his body.
His mind and body absorbed a powerful Heaven-Grade Martial Art from ancient times. Anna could have benefited from it, but she already had many Martial Arts and was developing her own unique art, so she gave it to him.
After all, what was the point of hoarding items while keeping her brother weak? It was better to make him as strong as possible rather than leave him vulnerable to death. Otherwise, she would regret not using her items to help him grow stronger.
“I think I learned something really great...!” he said, surprised.
“Hm? Oh!” Anna noticed Jack’s Aura flowing out, shaped like an Azure Dragon with a long white beard and red coral horns. “What is it called?”
“It’s called Azure Flood Dragon King’s Fist Arts,” Jack revealed. “Hm, water element, huh? I guess I can work with this.”
“Oh nice, that’s one of the Ancient Techniques developed by the Heavenly Golden Dragon’s third eldest son, the Azure Flood Dragon King!” Anna said. “It’s definitely strong and could connect you to that Constellation. Maybe you could earn their favor!”
“Really? I’m not sure if that’s good... I don’t want to be used,” Jack sighed. “Well, whatever the case... Let’s use these two Skill Books... Um, are you sure? Skills are important...”
“It’s fine!” Anna smiled. “I don’t want to regret not giving you these later... So take them and promise to always love your little sister!”
“I don’t need to promise that. Thank you, Anna,” he said, smiling warmly. “I’m really lucky to have you with me.”
“Aw, just get to it, dummy,” Anna giggled.
“Alright!” Jack said, his brows furrowed with determination.
He touched the [Heavenly Skill Book Of Murim (SSS Rank)] and the [Artificial Machine Skill Book (SSS Rank)], absorbing both Skill Books.
Their powers imprinted into his mind, body, and soul, resembling circuits of power.
“What did you learn?” Anna asked excitedly.
“Hmm...” Jack analyzed his new abilities silently. “From the Heavenly Skill Book of Murim, I got a Skill called ‘Martial Arts Fusion.’ It lets me combine Martial Arts with Items and Skills to create unique techniques. It’s not permanent, but it’s interesting. The Artificial Machine Skill Book gave me ‘Mechanical Evolution.’ It lets me infuse Nanomachines into living beings and objects to evolve them into highly technological forms. It’s strange and dangerous, so I might not use it much.”
“Oooh, they’re both awesome!” Anna said. “I don’t regret not taking them. You’ll make good use of them, brother. You could combine both skills’ effects too! Oh, right, I gave you those other items to combine skills and privileges, and the Gachapon! Open the Gachapon! Do it!”
“Okay, calm down,” he laughed. “The Gachapon are...”
Jack opened the Gachapon balls, revealing random items.
He received one Vitality Elixir, one Mana Elixir, one Super Antidote, one Mana Recycling Ring, and one Soul Fire Necklace. The accessories helped recycle and save Mana, while also refining it to increase Mana capacity over time. The necklace allowed him to use his Soul as a Flame to burn other Souls, though at the cost of burning his own.
The last items were a [Privilege Evolution Ticket (A Rank)], a [Privilege Fusion Marble (A Rank)], and a [Skill Evolution Stone (S Rank)]. The Privilege items had no effect yet, but the Skill Evolution Stone reacted strangely.
By holding it, Jack felt countless “shards” in his body resonate, slowly trying to unify. The lingering skill fragments from his lost System were reacting. This stone could evolve and combine them to recover some of its former strength.
“I can’t use the Privilege items yet. How about you keep them?” Jack asked. “I don’t have any Privileges now.”
“Hmm, really? Okay,” Anna nodded, pocketing them in her inventory. “But the Skill Stone is fine?”
“Yeah, I’ll use it,” Jack said, closing his eyes.
Then, something Anna didn’t expect happened. Countless colorful fragments emerged from Jack’s body, combining with the stone, which turned into bright light and fused back into him.
FLASH!
Anna saw the skill manifest as a crown-shaped symbol of red, black, and purple imprinted into Jack’s soul and spirit body.
“Hoo...” Jack exhaled, feeling new power within him. “I see.”
“What is it?” Anna asked. “What skill did you make?”
“Although I lost all my skills, the fragments unified into something like an ultimate skill,” he laughed. “It appeared deep within my Dao Root... it feels like a Trait and a Dao Treasure.”
“What?!” Anna gasped. “Y-You forged an Ascended Skill without realizing? With a mere Skill Evolution Stone? Maybe... you had hundreds of skills, right?”
“Over five hundred...” he muttered.
“Makes sense. Five hundred skill shards unified in the stone must have triggered a reaction to create an Ascended Skill!” Anna nodded. “Whew, brother, that’s amazing! What’s it called?”
“It’s called [Ascended Skill: Gluttonous Beast King],” he explained. “Look.”
Suddenly, a crown of black, red, and purple energy manifested above Jack’s head, giving him a regal air.
“Oooh! Is it related to Fenrir’s Gluttony?” Anna wondered.
“I don’t know,” said Jack. “It’s not the same as Gluttony. I can’t gain new Skills infinitely. The crown is like a sentient being that devours beasts and gains power and abilities derived from them, combined into something greater...”
“So technically the same!” Anna nodded.
“Not really... ugh, well, I’ll see how I develop it,” Jack said, sighing. “We’re done for now, right? I got so many things, I feel like my stomach is full.”
“Oh, right, should I sponsor you and Fenrir now? I tried sponsoring the Constellations, but they asked for billions of points. Surely it shouldn’t be that expensive for you and Fenrir...!” Anna said.
“Sponsoring?” Jack asked, confused. “What’s that?”
“Aaahh, I never explained it, huh?” Anna rubbed her chin. “Sponsoring is...”
Anna explained her Sponsorship power, which Jack’s original system lacked before it was destroyed.
Plot Points weren’t unique to her system. They were a currency used in the Constellation Streaming service. While Star Coins and Astral Star Crystals were physical currencies among Constellations in the Middle Realms and Great Beyond, Constellations could convert these into Plot Points to sponsor people in lower dimensions, purchasing skills, titles, and items.
Anna earned Plot Points not only from donations but also through Quests her System created, a rare power Constellations didn’t have. Quests were uncommon, tied to specific scenarios or zones, and usually created by Constellations.
“I see... so I’d become your Apostle?” he asked.
“Not really. I don’t call the people I sponsor Apostles or Incarnations,” Anna shrugged. “What do you think?”
“Sure, I don’t mind,” he nodded. “What about Fenrir? Can he get one too?”
“I’ll try,” Anna said, forcing her glitched system to obey.
Buzzing sounds and glitched codes, numbers, and letters appeared as she tried to bend the system to her will.
The harder she tried, the sharper the pain in her head became, but she endured it, channeling her Radiance into the circuits displayed in the system windows.
Somehow, she turned her Myriad Self Radiance into circuits, filling the missing or eroded parts of her system interface.
Then she saw big numbers and the word “Plot Point” amid the junk.
[Do SYSTEM_ERROR $$33####5 REQUIRED_FIX.EXE [J4ck] %#& 1,500,000 Pl0t Po1nt?$]
Y3$] N0]
“Damn, this is still glitched... Haaah,” Anna sighed. “Okay, it worked! It cost... one million five hundred thousand? Brother, why are you so expensive?”
“Eh? I don’t know,” he said, confused.
“Hm, maybe the price increased because I let you inherit my masters’ methods...” Anna rubbed her chin. “How much for lil’ Fenrir? Surely not that much, right? He’s just a tiny guy.”
Anna tried the same thing with Fenrir and after some trial and error, she got the same message.
[D0 SYSTEM_ERROR $%11####7 REQUIRED_FIX.EXE [F3Nr1r] %#& 1,500,000 Pl0t Po1nt?$]
Y3$] N0]
“WHAT? It’s the same as you!”
“Really? So we have the same potential or something?”
“Maybe... Little Fenrir has grown stronger fighting by my side, since I can’t open the portal to my Realm yet, so my pets are trapped inside. He’s developed some Shadow Abilities, but nothing too crazy, so I thought he’d be cheaper...”
“Maybe because he’s still Fenrir, it’s costly... If it was him at full power, you definitely couldn’t afford it.”
“Yeah, maybe...”
Anna had around six million Plot Points, which she thought was a lot. But sponsoring her brother and Fenrir required a ridiculous amount.
Nonetheless, she pressed Y3$], assuming it meant [Yes], and began donating Plot Points to her brother.

Plus with experiencing an entire lifetime in multiple dream worlds Anna should further develop a greater understanding of the law and Dao of Time which should greatly improve Krono's heart and further stimulate the repairs to her system.

2025-10-24 02:23:16 +0000 UTCYou know I just keep having many ideas I'm just from the concept of the dream training idea that mentioned in the recent chapters and it could lead to a very interesting Arc I mean close to as epic as that last one but a different direction instead of just put it on quality and more work on a quantity many minor arcs could complying together represent one major arc within the dream world they could go on to multiple each of them could go through like a hundred green worlds each 25 major 50 minor and 25 unique worlds each with their own trials challenges and training directions to help them increase their abilities and skills to new heights we could all be mention the hell like when the dream constellation shows up he can mentioned how like there's been a drop in dream energy lately and for doing this maybe Anna and Jack will also have to interact with the few remaining lower worlds that are still surviving with population to try and nurture new dreams through the process another idea would be that it could also be that the dream consolation might still have a garage about what happened and then the ruined future due to the Jack of that timeline's cause we might hold a grudge against the pass Jack who's currently there who's from the past and other times so he may make the training direction for Jack a little more tougher it could be like how Jack got into one dream world where he woke up as a child of a royal family that's corrupted and his his trial is to become a true ruler it could be the dream constellation while holding a grudge also understand the implications of Jack's near presence and the possibilities of what it could entail for the other timeline to not walk down the same direction as they did so he takes it upon himself to try and direct and it's still skills and abilities that would increase Jack's abilities to change in the timestream himself as well as increasing and a strength and abilities by perceiving their past present and many possible futures through the many skills and abilities that may have they could create different worlds based on that.one world that Jack could be put in could be like bass around the concept of survival where Jack will be sent into a prehistoric primal world some point with creatures throughout myths Legends extinct beings or animals that no longer reside but have a residual echo on the present due to their records still have an effect Jack's trial is to survive well also gathering other so close survivors in this posts primitive world that appeared with me ruins so I'm going to pop together too tight world mixed in with it as well I mean you could always have variety but the whole point is for Jack to try and survive it overcome many different trials and tests due to his own nature as being alone wolf this would increase survival abilities of his own while increasing his natural instincts from his experience as a wolf when he was tied with venure another venture of a dream world for Jack could be where he enters into a martial arts world and further pushes his abilities in martial arts there's a variety of different types of worlds if any other fans have ideas on some dream world that our Jack could end up into Gabby interesting to read again the dream constellation cuz I was set up that each dream their training could take infinite time they could be in there for years and years but only if you seconds could pass in the physical world and that each of them has complete 100 dreamworlds each this could be interesting Arc because it could be a means to instill a training montage within an ark itself and that when they return to their own world it was staying by the start of Newark as well I mean it won't be the same as probably the same quality as the ark from when Anna went to that martial arts worldline called Bestia(I think). But it still be an interesting concept I want to see how many unique worlds that the author could create just through this concept itself it'd be interesting say the least I mean we don't have to see their avengers through all of them but it would be interesting just to see the few that could be mentioned and we read and experience those adventures both from Anna's perspective and Jack's perspective as well that'll be interesting. Please share your thoughts and ideas I would love to hear other fans thoughts on what their dream training Arc will be like!
