After they arrived at the Temple Tiff rushed off like the Temple Head had told her to and before long was sitting next to the Oracle reaching her hand out so she could go speak to the God of Light. After their hands made contact Tiff saw her view quickly change to pure white as she appeared in the blank room she had last time she had come to speak to the God of Light.

Like last time she patiently waited for the God of Light at the small table that was in the room and after a few minutes the door opened and she saw the face of the God of Light look into the room. "From now on you don't have to wait here for me and can walk around while you wait because it could take me a while to come see you. Alright follow me."

Standing up Tiff followed behind the God of Light until they reached the workshop that she had received the Legendary job in originally. Seeing it again Tiff wondered if the God of Light planned to give her an award that wasn't already part of the job she gained last time and when she saw a formation start to take form in front of her she knew her suspicions were correct.

"I was going to give you a different skill as your first level reward but because of the situation I've decided to give you an extra one to help with your next mission." She was excited about getting two new skills but it made her think that her next mission was about to be much harder than the last.

"I don't know if you remember this or not but I can hear what you're thinking so just ask your questions without worrying about how it sounds." Tiff actually had forgotten this small fact but now that the God of Light reminded her she just went ahead and asked what she wanted to know. "What's my next mission?"

She felt like the God of Light could have just told her instead of making her ask if he knew what she wanted to know but she was sure he made her ask to make her remember to just speak her mind whenever they spoke. "It looks like we'll be heavily outnumbered from now on which makes increasing the amount of Demigods on our side the top priority. I'm sure you already wanted to help your friends become divine like yourself and I'm sure you already know the best source for Divine cores."

Tiff could tell the God of Light wanted her to say something so she made the most obvious guess to see if she was right. "The Giants right?" Getting a small nod from the God of Light Tiff was a bit happy they were going on the offensive because going into hiding now would just allow the Demon Lord to grow his forces but actually going after the giants was something they had never done before so she wasn't exactly sure how it would go.

Their training had been purely based on defending themselves and the town or city they were based in at the time so going on an attack was going to take some effort to get ready for and it didn't sound like they were going to have much time to get ready. "It will be fine. You'll be going on your own to try and find a giant that you can assassinate."

Tiff couldn't help but give the God of Light a crazy look when he said this but she soon remembered she was about to have two new skills to use as well as the skill the dagger had given her so maybe it wasn't going to be as bad as it sounded.

Standing up from reading the book that had ended up a real let down, Lake headed towards his bed to get a couple of minutes of sleep while he thought about what he had just read. The book had been from the perspectives of mortals that had seen fights between the two sides during the war the holy Goddess had been killed by Akal but with no information from the perspectives of any of the Divine figures the book had just been a lot of guesses on why certain things had happened and he wanted to know the real reasons because he could guess on his own. 𝗳𝐫𝗲𝗲𝐰𝗲𝐛𝐧𝐨𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝐨𝐦

The fact the insider most likely knew what he wanted to know made it worse because having to read when he could just get the answer in a few seconds made the books lack of information really grating on the mind.

After he fell asleep Lake woke up and was still annoyed but that didn't stop him from getting his new shoes on and heading for the stairs. He was about to start looking for items to fill Inner Vault with but first he needed to make a new poison because he had been without any for a long time and it was a real waste because Poison Control was one of his best skills.

Entering a small lab Lake thought back to the time Lucas had personally taught him the basics of alchemy and wondered if the man had been able to make a single potion in the recent weeks. Ever since the war had started back up he had only really seen Lucas at his desk and this probably meant he was too busy to brew anything.

In all reality there was a chance Lucas wasn't the best Alchemist to begin with if the guild was able to go this long without his help in making special items and this made Lake realize just because Lucas ran the guild business wise didn't mean he had good skills in the job.

It was too bad that it would come off as rude to ask this question because Lake would have loved to know if Lucas had a legendary skill in Alchemy but he guessed he would just have to wait till the man told him to know. There was a good chance that would never happen though so it was just best to move on and forget about it. freewebn ovel.com

Grabbing one of the many books that was in the Lab Lake flipped to the poison part of the book and found something deadly that would kill almost anything that touched it and started looking at what types of ingredients it used before moving to a table that was already set up for a small brew.

Realizing he didn't have the ingredients that he needed to make the poison, Lake went and found someone to bring his servants to him before giving them orders to bring him all the ingredients he needed. After about twenty minutes he had ten small piles of powder and a small vial of green liquid on the table in front of him and Lake got to work adding the powders in the right order.

The poison he was making didn't use anything special to give it any weird properties and just relied on the level of the ingredients to make it strong so the brewing didn't take very long and he was quickly able to pour it all into three small bottles. He was about to throw these into his belt when he realized putting them in Inner Vault first would be interesting.

They weren't stolen so the bonus they would give him would probably be mild but having a thing that was normally negative provide boons would be interesting if it worked. It would also give him a safe place to store these since having them break before he wanted would be annoying.

Once the hole for Inner Vault opened Lake set one inside before opening the Inner vault contents page.

Inner Vault

Seeing what the poison was doing to him Lake was about to remove the poison before it killed him but quickly realized his health was still full and it had already been a few seconds. It didn't take long to find out the reason for this was that he had another skill called Poison Taster that flipped the effects of poison on him.

Wanting to know what this meant for him, Lake took out his knife so that he could cut his finger a bit to see if it would heal on its own. After a few seconds of failing to get through his skin with his knife, Lake used Crunch and left a small mark on his hand that closed before even a single drop of blood could fall.

Wanting to see if this was actually from the poison, Lake took the Health Potion out of Inner Vault and made a bigger cut leaving the blade in his hand. Before long he could actually feel his skin trying to heal around the blade so he pulled it away from his hand and after getting over what he had just felt threw the Health Potion back in and walked towards the door happy that he had just found another way to make himself harder to kill.
