Chapter 208:150 Gifts from Crohn
Translator: 549690339
Fern City, Holy Light Church.
With the start of the shattering of Crohn’s soul, Dean McKenzie began to have a long dream.
He dreamt of being raised by a Necromancer from a young age, learning with an open mind and gradually growing into a gentle necromancer.
Because he disliked toying with souls, he primarily focused on bone and summoning spells.
At the age of to he became a Necromancer Apprentice, and a full-fledged Necromancer by 12 years old.
By 16 he had become a Wraith Controller, a Necromancy Magician by 20, and by 25, a master of the undead.
After that, he spent fifteen full years seeking the heritage to ascend further.
However, to progress further, he had to take the lives of 9999 people.
Faced with a dilemma between the lives of innocent people and the much- desired heritage, he ultimately chose to halt his progress.
He settled in Fern City, trying to pass down Necromancy, employing various methods to earn money, and revising his studies.
After a decade or two, he aimed to overthrow all he had learned, just to bypass the preliminary condition of 9999 human lives.
Then, the Church of Holy Light arrived.
Dreaming Dean McKenzie was schemed against and imprisoned in the Church of Holy Light’s Heretic Reformation Facility.
Punishment and torture followed.
In this dream, Dean experienced a round of reformation and torture.
Despite being in a dream, and despite Dean being vaguely aware it wasn’t about him,
He couldn’t help but be engrossed and develop a profound murderous intent.
Then, Dean saw his own debut in the dream.
He saw Crohn’s madness at the time and the struggle he went through when attacking himself.
He viewed the brief astonishment of Crohn after the failure of the “Rebirth of the Undead” and how he calmly faced his death afterwards.
Then, the already reconciled to die Crohn was abruptly awakened.
Death and rebirth should be a joyous occasion.
But when the reborn Crohn realized what he might have gone through and was surrounded by 180,000 wronged spirits, agony and guilt continuously burned him like raging flames.
On top of that, the spirits incessantly impacted his consciousness.
It was difficult for Dean to imagine the despair and suffering Crohn might have encountered.
Crohn, however, didn’t allow despair and pain to defeat him, but rose from it instead.
He began trying to make contact with each of the wronged spirits.
He tried to seek forgiveness from the spirits, even if it was just from one.
But the harder he tried, the more despair he felt.
Out of the 180,000 wronged spirits, none had its consciousness, only harboring their last obsession before death.
When Crohn was about to breakdown, Dean arrived!
He walked into his despair, becoming the last straw for his salvation.
Which is why he made the decision to give up his life to complete his redemption without any hesitation.
At the end of the dream, Dean was looking at the words he had uttered.
“None of this is entirely your fault. If I were you, if I had gone through what you’ve been through, I might be even more crazy!”
Only after fully experiencing the entire dream, Dean realized the sort of emotional impact the consolation must have imparted on Crohn.
It pushed Crohn to make a frantic decision before his death.
He opened his arms, harnessing a mysterious power that covered the 180,000 wronged spirits, allowing them to dissipate with a smile.
Crohn, who hadn’t killed a person his whole life, decided to carry the sin of killing 180,000 wronged spirits in the end.
The dream abruptly ended at this point, and the system prompts followed suit, continuously appearing on the screen.

Enemies killed by this skill will become a part of it.
Skill Damage: ???
Reading these continuous system prompts, as well as the final skill that appears,
Dean McKenzie was profoundly shocked.
He never expected Crohn to give him such an enormous surprise.
He straight up raised almost all of Dean McKenzie’s skills by a minimum of 2 levels!
With this enhancement, almost all of Dean McKenzie’s enhancement skills have arrived at the threshold for further enhancement.
Unbelievably, Crohn even gave birth to a new skill for him.
Furthermore, this skill shows an unknown damage rating.
However, although the damage of “Soul Curse” is unknown, Dean McKenzie was certain that whatever lies beneath the question mark is an extremely terrifying entity.
But how horrifying is it?
Dean McKenzie wouldn’t know until he used it.
As the system prompt continued to update, Dean McKenzie’s consciousness gradually regained clarity.
Outside the Holy Light Church, Dean McKenzie, standing on the altar, simultaneously opened his eyes.
As soon as he regained consciousness, Dean McKenzie immediately noticed that the altar he was on, or even the whole church, even the entire Fern City was trembling.
Before Dean McKenzie could react, the bony hand on the altar suddenly moved towards him at high speed.
This movement was so fast that Dean McKenzie couldn’t dodge it.
He could only watch as the bone hand arrived in front of him, then passed through him into his Land of Bone.
Dean McKenzie’s spirit then entered and found that the bony hand disappeared into thin air after entering the Land of Bone.
Simultaneously, another system prompt refreshed.
[Your Mysterious Realm {Land of Bone} absorbed {Crohn’s Left Hand}, and the foundation of your realm has improved by 10%!]
At the same time, a progress bar appeared before Dean McKenzie.
Dean McKenzie knew instantly the purpose of this bar. Once the progress bar is full, his portable Mysterious Realm [Land of Bone] could be upgraded again.
This progress bar lit up and quickly filled a huge chunk.
Crohn’s body incorporated into Dean McKenzie’s Land of Bone from all directions, pushing the progress bar to 80% in a single gulp!
At the same time, the system prompt refreshed again.
[You have successfully completed the task [City of the Wraith-Fern]. Do you choose to end the instance ahead of schedule?
Initiate this instance’s reward settlement?]
Without any hesitation, Dean McKenzie refused and said firmly, “This instance can’t stop here!”
At the same time, his gaze fell on the body of the stitched monster at his feet.
According to his attributes, it had been less than a minute from when he killed the stitched monster.
In other words, the several years that Dean McKenzie perceived to have passed in his conscious space were only a few seconds in reality.
For the first time, Dean McKenzie experienced what is referred to in the old saying as ‘a dream in a dream’.
This suited Dean McKenzie perfectly well.
In that case, the body of the stitched monster would not be wasted by Dean McKenzie.
To put it bluntly, Dean McKenzie was dying to get a hold of the stitched monster’s Undying trait.
“Finally, I can get this trait. But, where should I use it?”
Dean McKenzie looked at the stitched monster, then checked his attributes panel.
To be precise, he browsed his skills on the attribute panel, and even inspected Doggy Two and others in an attempt to find the most suitable power supply. Soon, Dean McKenzie set his eyes on a particular skill!
“This skill will do. The Undying trait used on this skill, if successful, will bring an unprecedented increase in my power!”
With that, Dean Mckenzie got to work immediately!
[You began to enhance the skill {Skeleton Domination}. Successful! You now have 150 minutes for skill enhancement!]
[You have successfully extracted the talent from {Sealed Wraith Power and 180,000 Souls Skeleton (Stitched Monster)}, and received the Perfect Essence {Undying}, also gaining 500 attribute points!]
[You’ve applied talent extraction on {Elite Skeleton} (Elite) (level 85) and gained 256 attribute points, as well as a Elite Essence! ]
[You spent 2,000 Gold Coins, fusing the Perfect Essence {Undying} into the skill {Skeleton Domination}!]
[You consumed 12,000 Gold Coins, directing 300,000 attribute points into {Skeleton Domination}, enhancement directed towards skeleton strength! ]
[You consumed 200 Gold Coins, dispersing 1,000 essences into the trait {Undying}!]
[Your skill {Skeleton Domination} enhancement is complete!]
