Chapter 25 Charisma = Beauty?
"Ha!" Ashok exhaled with a bitter chuckle, thinking 'Even the World wants to watch me suffer at this point. It could have given me that Self-obsessed Narcissist Trait but it intentionally gave me this attention seeker False Monarch trait, like it's some twisted joke. To top it off, it aligns perfectly with the Blessing, as if the two are tailor-made to mock me.'
Blessing of Charisma
Grade: Divine
Description: The Blessing granted to the user by [???] to compensate for the Cursed One Trait.
Effect: The User's Charisma Stat breaks the Human Limits permanently and achieves the Rank of Ascended. Grants complete Immunity to any form of Physical Domination and the all-time passive skill [Ascender's Pride].
[Ascender's Pride] – The user exudes an intangible, indomitable pressure akin to that of an Ascended Ranker, dominating and suppressing any other presence.
Note: The User's Body is unable to wield the full effect of the Blessing. The Effect of both the Blessing and the Passive Skill is temporarily sealed to the level, the body can handle which is SS+ Rank. The Seal will be temporarily released when the User finds himself in a situation that counters the Nature of the Blessing.
'HAHA! I was never wrong, Morrathis must be the most beautiful God in existence if she can bestow such a Blessing of Charisma. Even the Succubus Queen, the Sin of Lust, cannot grant a Blessing that surpasses the limits of a Stat, not even to her own kind. And to think, she will be the one behind the fall of one of the Seraphim(Highest Ranked Angel in Heaven) in the future.
But there is time for that event to unfold.
Another instance is one where the same Blessing is bestowed upon someone whose face is scarred, deeply marked by battle or hardship. Does that mean the Blessing would be ineffective in his case? No! Instead, the scars would become his center point of attraction. While he might not win the favor of some women despite his high Charisma, his appeal would soar among mercenaries or those who enjoy fighting and bloodshed.
In Ashok's case, the Blessing isn't sealed simply because of beauty. It's sealed due to a combination of factors, including beauty, but more crucially because of his body's current limitations. His vessel is too small to fully contain the power of an Ascended Rank Charisma. It could be concluded that with the Blessing, Ashok wouldn't be beautiful in the conventional sense, but he would always be at his best—presentable state regardless of the time or place.
'To think that the sense of complete control I was feeling just now was nothing more than the influence of my Presence. It was a feeling like no other—one that couldn't possibly be replicated in a PC game. Is this what it feels like to be an SS+ Ranker? Then what must it be like to be an Ascended?'
In this world, an individual's rank is primarily determined by the strength of their core—either their Mana Core or Aura Core. Those who focus on long-range combat, like Mages, Warlocks, and similar classes, typically rely on the Mana Core to define their rank. On the other hand, close combat warriors—Swordsmen, Spearmen, Monk, etc. define their rank from the power of their Aura Core.
For Support Classes, such as Priests and Paladins, the situation is a bit more complex. These classes possess an extra stat Divine Energy, and either a Mana Core or Aura Core, depending on their class focus. In their case, the rank is determined by whichever of these energies in their body—Mana, Aura, or Divine Energy—is the most powerful.
The Ranks of the World in ascending order are:
F, E, D, C, B, A, S, SS, SSS
Each rank will be further divided into Two sub-ranks to further differentiate the strength of individuals within the same rank.
However, among the highest rankers, a rare few have managed to break through the existing limitations of the World's ranking system. These exceptional individuals transcend the established boundaries, achieving a status known as the Ascended, or more commonly, Demigods.
