Max looked at his surroundings with astonishment, he was no longer in Angakok’s protective bubble but rather feeling warm and almost cosy as he laid on the surface of the dying star surrounded by crazy hot solar flames that were threatening to melt his entire visage the last time he was conscious but were now feeling like a warm embrace.

His shoulder that was supposed to be torn was completely healed, as his body which was simply unable to move against the gravity of the sun was now feeling very light.

Max tried to touch his own legs but found out that his hands passed right through his thighs as if it were an illusion as he felt a small tickling sensation in his brain that something had touched his thighs.

Max was completely stunned by this phenomenon as alarm bells began to ring in his mind.

Immediately, he tried to touch his arms again and again but realised that his entire body was no longer physical but had instead taken an elemental form as he had become one with fire by literally becoming an individual made of fire.

By not having a physical body, the force of gravity no longer affected him which was the reason behind him feeling so light as things started to make more sense in his brain about what exactly was going on at this moment.

” Grandpa Drax, what changes have the third piece brought to my body? ” Max asked his A.I. which seemed much more refined in his brain now as the old man now looked like a man in his fifties that had years of experience in serving a master.

” You have now fully integrated with the Agni-Astra, master Max, your body can now freely choose to shift between a physical and an elemental form.

In your elemental form, you become immune to physical damages and can unleash the power of your flames to the fullest.

Naturally the power of all your flame based spells have now increased exponentially.

For the first piece the increase was at 1000% the normal spells power or roughly 10 times.

After the second piece was obtained it became even more at 100 times.

But now it’s at a full 2000 times the spell power!

An additional 20X multiplier to your existing strength of spells because of the full set effect.

Not only do you no longer have any limitations on how many spells under tier5 that the Agni-Astra can use, you also have an opportunity to cast 2 tier6 spells once in 3 days ” Drax said in a polite voice that was completely in contrast to the brash way he talked to Max in general and he even put respect behind Max’s name by referring to him as ‘ Master ‘.

Max was a little stunned because of Drax’s changed behaviour but his mind went numb just thinking about the increased abilities of the Agni-Astra.

His fire spells that he could insta-cast nonstop were now 20 times stronger than before!

This meant that the simple spell fireball was now as strong as inferno whereas the inferno spell was now as strong as a normal tier5 spell!

While most tier5 warriors could barely cast a few tier 5 spells before their reserves ran out, Max could bombard them nonstop with the same spell without having any maximum cap on how many spells he could cast and he could further compress it to send it’s power to the absolute peak of tier5!

He was now a walking, talking, living breathing cheat and he could yet still increase that damage even further by shifting from physical to elemental form which was not only great for defence against physical attacks but also amplified his magical prowess.

But that was now all, according to Drax he could now even cast 2 divine spells once in 3 days!

Divine spells that needed divine essence to be cast, something that only god’s possessed.

For a moment Max wondered if he was hallucinating as it sounded too good to be true, however, it was true. The true power of a tier9 Divine grade treasure forged from the dying soul of a primordial god.

” Grandpa, I do like the new tone, but it’s unnecessary. We have a different relationship and you don’t need to refer to me as master.

I’m still the same boy that I was a few hours ago, no need to treat me any different just because I got the final piece” Max said as he requested the old A.I to not suddenly become professional and treat him as his master.

” Good, you are not an irredeemable boy” Drax said with his usual brashness as his form shifted from that of a butler to that of a retired old fisherman wearing a loose shirt and shorts.

” You have gained two new spells boy, true divine spells that are fueled by divine essence.

Although you cannot gather and control it on your own, the completed Agni Astra and the remnant soul of the fire god within can.

I will tell you more about the two divine spells you have learnt but before that I need to teach you an important lesson about the ‘ Nature ‘ of the Agni-Astra.

The Agni-Astra is indeed awesome and it provides you with me your A.I. support, your fire powers and resistance and many other cool abilities but in the end it’s just a weapon.

To bring out a weapon’s true potential is up to it’s user.

Although the Agni-Astra’s strength will no longer increase by itself in the future since all the pieces have been collected, the difference between it’s expressed power will change once you yourself become a more formidable warrior.

In the end the Agni-Astra is the same as a sword.

Although a tier1 warrior wielding a divine sword can become pretty strong and have many abilities, if the same warrior someday becomes a tier 6 sword wielder having the same sword with same abilities, the power he can express through it will undoubtedly much more stronger ” Drax said as he sensed Max being carried away from the allure of the newfound abilities not understanding that in the end they were only tools and their potential could only be realised by utilising them properly.

” Apart from the power increase, you have now gained ‘ PERFECT’ fire immunity, something probably only you and tier6 phoenix’s share in this universe as no matter the nature of the flame, nothing that is the element fire can hurt you anymore.

For you to learn any new fire spell that is outside the Agni-Astra is now child’s play, you only need to see it once and decide whether you wish to add it to your arsenal or no.

However, the spells that come loaded within the bracelet are already the best of the best despite being basic in nature.

With that said, here are the two new divine spells that you can now use ….. ” Drax said as he explained all the power ups that Max had received for completing the Agni-Astra before revealing the newest spells at his disposal.
