Evolution: A Warlock’s Rise To Power

"DAMN IT!" Lucan screamed as he dropped into the darkness. His heart was beating like mad while he continued to fall. It felt like he had been falling for a full minute. He expected a hard ground to come any moment, but it never did.

He opened up the player interface and found he had been kicked from the party.

[You are approaching the Depths of Despair. Death penalty will be multiplied by 5]

'What! What the hell!'

Lucan quickly opened his warlock tab and opened his wish list of spells and abilities. He purchased two abilities and spent every bit of experience points he had saved up over the past 2 months.

[Basic Night Vision]

[Passive]

[You will be able to see clearly out to 25 feet in complete darkness. Things 26-50 feet away are blurry and hard to distinguish.]

Lucan hopped this would help him see the ground.

[Shadow Form]

[Toggle]

[Your physical body becomes a shadow, invulnerable to physical damage. You can not attack or cast spells while in Shadow Form. Shadow Form can be active up to 10 seconds every hour.]

[Shadow Form Attributes]

>Increase movement speed by 100%

>Increase stealth by 100%

>increase damage taken from light magic by 100%

Hopefully this ability would break his fall.

With his two purchases completed, Lucan started to exit out of the windows when they were forcefully closed.

[You have entered the Depths of Despair]

[All communication to the outside has been disabled]

[Death penalty his been multiplied by 5]

Lucan couldn't buy any more spells or abilities even if he wanted to. Suddenly he saw more than just black endless space. He activated Shadow Form and silently slammed into the ground taking no damage. He turned off the ability after only using a second and a half.

"I'll kill you!" Screamed the overseer as he fell only a few seconds behind.

Lucan turned his Shadow Form back on.

*Splat*

[You have received 82,343 experience points; additional experience had been added due to level difference]

[Congratulations! You have leveled up]

[You have received 15 silver and 12 bronze pieces]

[You have received Overseer's whip]

[You have received unknown mineral]

[You have received Master Key to Mine of Despair]

[You have received Dwarven Dagger of Furry]

Lucan dismissed the notifications with ease.

'How could I be so stupid to believe them.' 'You're new so you may not know, you need to turn off your notifications.' 'AHHH What bull crap!'
