BXBX NOVEL Chapter 102: Self-Analysis(1)
Levi\'s roommates were quick to take advantage of the free time.
Ryn, his eyes gleaming with excitement, announced his plans to visit the magic research facility, saying that the academy had research facilities that could not be found in most of the major cities.
Alex, though didn\'t have any plans - he headed off for some extra training.
Toby, still somewhat sheepish after yesterday\'s incident, mumbled something about "personal business" before disappearing.
Left alone in the quiet dormitory, Levi found himself at loose ends.
It was too early for breakfast, and the events of yesterday still weighed heavily on his mind.
With a sigh, he decided it was time for some introspection.
Sitting back on his bed, he opened his status - that he had not seen in quite some time.

-----------[Status]-----------
Levi stared at the screen for a second.
"Demonic Follower," he muttered, the words leaving a bitter taste in his mouth. How would his classmates react if they knew? How would the academy itself respond?
Maybe he would be dead in the next second if they discovered that he is a demonic follower….Levi was not at all curious to find out.
His eyes lingered on his Demonic Essence level - 377 out of 1000.
It still remained the same as when he had come out of the portal.
It was not bad, but not nearly enough for what lay ahead. He needed to find ways to increase it, and fast.
Going on, Levi tapped on each one of his abilities, reading the descriptions carefully as he had enough time to dwell on them now.
---------[Demonic Transformation]--------
Ability Description: [Unleash the demon within you.]
---------[Demonic Transformation]--------
\'Simple, yet terrifying,\' Levi thought.
He\'d only used this ability a few times, but the memory of using it still sent shivers down his spine. The raw power that he got from the ability was intoxicating - It would instantly double his power output but the ability itself was unstable!
His body was still incapable of fully withstanding its power… not to mention, he couldn\'t use this in front of others - that would be a surefire way to death!
The demonic transformation changes his appearance so much that it would be hard for anyone to not realize that he is a demonic follower - so he has to keep this a secret.
This ability was definitely a last resort, nothing more.
--------[Domination]--------
Ability Description: [Submit or Perish]
Current Dominions: [1/1]
--------[Domination]--------
Noir, his first and only dominion.
Levi glanced at the [1/1], wondering if that limit would increase as he grew stronger.
He was yet to find out about the triggering conditions and how this ability actually worked but just the thought of commanding more beings like Noir was thrilling!
For now, however, he could do nothing but wait - hoping that the limit would increase when he leveled up from Follower rank to the Priest Rank.
Come to think of it - normally people would level up from Follower to Priest rank but he was a demonic follower, what would his next evolution be?
He was curious to find out.
Anyway, with that thought at the side of his mind, he moved forward to his innate abilities.
---------[Shadow Self]----------
Ability Description: [He is you, you are him. What you hide—He wears, what you fear—he confronts, what you hesitate to do—he will do with resolution, what you can\'t—HE CAN.]
---------[Shadow Self]----------
There was only one time Levi had experienced this ability - and it wasn\'t even activated by his will.
His dark twin - he came out on his own when he lost control of his Demonic transformation.
Levi still didn\'t know what abilities this skill had and he was very afraid to find out. He was scared of the possibility that his dark twin might steal his body - so he had been avoiding using this skill.
But was that really good? Levi didn\'t know.
---------[Lunacy]----------
Ability Description: In a world where sanity crumbles like fragile glass, true power lies in embracing the madness. Control the chaos within you, warp the reality to your whim - see what can\'t be seen and become the Lunatic, where your insanity is the only truth left standing!
---------[Lunacy]----------
Finally, the most useful ability that he had!
This ability had helped him and even saved his life multiple times.
Yes, Levi had barely scratched its surface.
It had also evolved recently but Levi had not found the opportunity to use this ability again to find out what had changed.
Now that he thought about it - wouldn\'t today be a perfect opportunity to try it out?
His Lunacy ability was not related to the Demon contract and neither did it have any signs that would reveal his secret.
And more importantly, Lunacy was a mind ability, which was considered very rare - if he could claim that his trait was related to mind abilities and Lunacy was one of his trait abilities, wouldn\'t everyone believe that?
That would be the perfect cover for his demonic abilities!
\'I am a genius!\'
Levi thought to himself feeling proud that he had come out with such a solution!
Anyway, he decided to go to the training hall after breakfast but first he wanted to finish assessing himself - so he read further and his eyes drifted to the "Inheritance" section
----[Tautha Dé Danann]----
Description: [Forgotten were those who chose to stay—bound, shackled by those who left. They have chosen you as their flag bearer. Learn the story of the forgotten Gods.]
Incomplete: 1/5 (All five parts of the Inheritance must be gathered to attempt it.)
----[Tautha Dé Danann]----
A mystery wrapped in an enigma.
Levi had no idea how to find the other four parts, or what would happen if he did. But the prospect of the inheritance was really tempting.
He would make sure to search for the other four sanctums and obtain the full inheritance!
He swore and finally, pulled up Noir\'s status. Unlike his - there was a slight difference in its status.
