Chapter 471: Titles
[Now querying Title Contention Matches eligible for Special Reincarnator EX051]
[Martial Arts Grandmaster: Requires Martial Arts Mastery above Lv7, regular naked Strength and Agility above 30 points, possessing B-Class or above martial arts abilities above Lv4;]
[Barbarian: Requires regular naked Strength attribute exceeding 50 points;]
[Shadow Mage: Requires regular Spirit attribute exceeding 30 points, possessing soul-side and spiritual-art-side characteristics;]
[King of the Murderous Species: Requires prerequisite milestones · Murderous Species, Asura, etc., possessing killing intent-type special abilities;]
...
A massive number of titles refreshed all at once, far more than the number of titles Kaito Shirogane could previously obtain by fusing his milestones.
The types and qualities of the titles varied greatly, spanning regular mass-produced titles for the four basic attributes, as well as special titles like [King of the Murderous Species] and [Martial Arts Grandmaster].
Among them, the few most special ones Kaito saw were also the ones that best fit his current situation. He guessed these few titles were probably filtered out after compounding multiple conditions.
[Unmatched War Demon: The four basic attributes of Strength, Agility, Constitution, and Spirit all exceed 30 points in their regular naked state, and simultaneously obtained efficacy enhancements. Combat power rating possesses Strong · Exceptional or above level;]
The color of this title was completely different from other titles. It was a dim gold, very textured. Just seeing the writing, Kaito could imagine that the rarity of this title was probably the highest tier he could obtain right now, even higher than that [King of the Murderous Species] flashing with scarlet luster.
These were attributes almost tailor-made for him. At the same time, Kaito guessed this type of title belonged to the same category as titles like [Barbarian] for strength-specialized Reincarnators—that is, titles specially prepared by the Space for attribute-specialized Reincarnators.
Strictly speaking, perhaps the title of [Supreme] was just an enhanced version, or rather, the apex of this type of title.
Probably after meeting the strength rating, every time the attribute exceeded a certain magnitude, one would obtain qualifications for different titles. For example, exceeding 50 points was a Barbarian; exceeding 40 points but less than 50 points would contend for titles like Hercules or something similar.
Ultimately, it would probably correspond to the rumored title of the strongest in each attribute—[Supreme].
Because Kaito was a Sin Reincarnator and belonged to the type with evenly distributed attributes, he achieved the feat of touching the extreme values of all four attributes simultaneously and breaking through all of them in the First Ladder. He became a special Reincarnator possessing four extraordinary characteristics and four attribute efficacy enhancements.
[Unmatched War Demon] was probably the specialized title under this category.
And a Supreme title with multiple attributes hadn't appeared in the Space yet; at least, no one had spread news of it. Kaito was very curious what kind of title ability this type of title would yield.
The reason Reincarnators wanted to obtain titles, and the reason Title Level Reincarnators were more powerful than most elite Reincarnators, was because the [Title] itself represented a powerful ability bestowed by the Space.
Although there were differences in whether the effect of the [Title Ability] was powerful or not, without exception, they all possessed quite high priorities.
From the characteristic of his own [Shinra Death Intent] and the situations encountered in subsequent battles, Kaito had already understood that the further into the battles, the more "BUG-level" abilities would probably appear in considerable numbers.
For example, forced hypnosis, memory rewriting, banishment, sealing, instant death...
Without exception, for these abilities, as long as you suffered the ability and couldn't be immune to its influence, you would directly face defeat.
In the B711 Secondary World, Kaito and Hongchen, two martial arts experts whose frontal combat power overwhelmingly surpassed [Millennium Bug], were simultaneously affected by Millennium Bug's [Domain Expansion · Underworld Sound Kill], almost suffering a first-encounter kill together.
If Kaito hadn't possessed multiple souls in his body and released Gojo Satoru in advance, then in that battle, both of them would have already been counter-killed by Millennium Bug.
When confronting rule-based abilities, the level of priority determines the outcome of the battle.
The priority of Title Abilities was usually at the intermediate level or above.
"Can I check the number of Reincarnators registered for each Title Match now?"
Kaito asked. The Rider Girl shook her head, giving a negative answer.
"[Title] is not a bestowal obtained through opportunism. That is a gift given by a Great Existence to the brave."
The Rider Girl's words suddenly made Kaito feel that the Title System of the Space was somewhat similar to the [Gift Games] in the [Little Garden] world.
Similarly participating in competition, similarly obtaining special rewards and authorities after winning.
He guessed that perhaps the Infinite Dimensional Space wasn't just using Reincarnators to snatch various [Information], it was also absorbing the inheritance methods under various civilization lineages.
The Rider Girl meant that Reincarnators shouldn't think about finding shortcuts by seeing which Title Contention had fewer participants, but should choose the one they wanted the most and advance bravely.
Kaito nodded. He naturally didn't harbor such thoughts.
He was testing the bottom lines of various rules of the Space.
"I have a [Purge Authority]. Can I designate a certain Reincarnator as the Purge Target in the tournament and then kill them?"
The Rider Girl was silent for a moment, still shaking her head.
Kaito took a final look at the titles flashing with dim golden luster together with [Unmatched War Demon] at the bottom of the title list, turned, and left.
"[Pupil of Empty Calamity], [Divine Slaughter and Seizure], [Heavenly Martial Dark Illumination], [Three Thousand Lightning Executions], [Tyrant Armor · Fierce Rakshasa]..."
Almost every title required two to three or more ability traits, corresponding respectively to the abilities in Kaito's current ability system, such as Killing Intent Fluctuation, Special Constitution, Martial Arts Foundation, Electric Current Push, and so on.
The particularity and effects of these titles completely exceeded the types with broader conditions like [Martial Arts Grandmaster] mentioned earlier.
Kaito memorized the information of these titles one by one, preparing to find Black Butler later to study whether anyone had obtained similar titles before, to see if he could get a general idea of the title abilities.
He walked out of the Tier Management Office and didn't directly cast the [Nurarihyon's Core] into his body.
Both the [Adaptation] and [Transformation] abilities suited him quite well, and could completely be called powerful characteristics.
But with Kaito's successful cultivation of [Kaioken] now, his thirst for power had gone up another notch.
He thirsted for even better characteristics.
Moreover, because he had just executed a temporary [Purge Mission], he still had quite ample time to wait. Before the start of the next deployment, he had plenty of opportunities to liquidate resources to obtain more powerful characteristics.
Especially since there was still that group of people scratching their heads wanting to get Duke's relics back...
The corner of Kaito's mouth hooked up, seeming to want to reveal a mocking smile, but just as that curve hooked up, it faded again.
Those naive guys perhaps obtained the power of [Heart] earlier and more easily than me.
Thinking thus, Kaito just kept a cold face and entered the Goddess's Residence.
"Appraise this special creation."
[Do you wish to spend 5000 Dimensional Points to appraise Special Creation · Gantz?]
Kaito looked at this fee and expressionlessly chose to agree.
[Appraising...]
The Goddess's ruby-like eyes carefully examined the Gantz Black Ball, ultimately finding nothing.
[Appraisal Complete]
[Special Structure · Gantz]
[Quality: Special]
[Description: High-tier 3D printing machine created by a highly developed high-dimensional race, capable of printing various information including living beings]
[Effect 1: Consuming an equal amount of information, you can print the conceived target within this structure] (Cannot create living beings or items exceeding Gantz's information acquisition capability)
[Effect 2: Gantz requires biological batteries to be driven]
The attributes didn't have any changes. It was just that now when Kaito focused his mind to look at that so-called [Information], he could get the specific price. [Information] was Singularities.
To create a basic Gantz Suit (Strengthening Suit) required E-Class Singularity *1, Dimensional Points 2500.
Other items also had different prices.
The most expensive on the list was the Giant Robot, priced as high as A-Class Singularity *1, Dimensional Points 32000. In Kaito's view, it had zero cost-effectiveness.
