What could these two new Abilities and the two new Skills do?

Chaos knew that Job Skills were often passive effects that enhanced something within that Job's abilities or capabilities.

Job Skills often helped at using special knowledge or techniques over something as well. Such as using Sword Techniques if you got the Swordsman Job, or Healing Magic with the Priest Job, or Alchemy with the Alchemist Job, and so on.

They also made it for a crafter to become even better at doing what they do the best. Or they also made it better for a blacksmith to make weapons that could be strong, resilient, and durable.

Such powers and capabilities came in all sorts of types and sizes and types. Each Job was varied.

Although there were specialized Jobs, a large amount of the Jobs was shared with many, and were common, such as Swordsman, Magician, Witch, Alchemist, and so on.

But the more complicated their names turned to be, the rarer they would become to be acquired, and well, harder too.

The majority of the people didn't knew what really triggered a person to get a Job Skill.

You might work your entire life as a swordsman and never get the Job, it was such as sporadic at that.

People had no power over it, and due to this, those that prayed a lot to the Gods they believed thought that by doing this, their chances on getting Jobs would become higher.

And due to many people praying to gods while working hard in their fields suddenly gained Jobs, the belief that Jobs were granted by Gods themselves began to expand across the Universe and all of its mortal inhabitants.

But Chaos learned the truth now. He had not pray to any God ever, so he knew that they didn't gave him this power.

However, the one that gave it was the Universe Core.

The core of this Universe saw Chaos as someone important and impressive, and therefore, it gifted two Job Skills to him.

Therefore, through this, he realized that Jobs are gifted by just the System itself and the one that administrates it, the Universe Core!

Praying actually didn't increased the chances for anything. Jobs were merely given to anyone in a whim whenever it felt they were worthy. Perhaps it was like a gift of destiny itself.

Or not? There were even villainous beings that got Jobs, so the Universe Core didn't distinguished between good and evil. Chaos remember Jobs such as Enslaver to exist, and many pirates had jobs between their captains, despite how bastard they were.

"Could it be that Praying has no relation and it was all just random at the end? It was just a coincidence… or maybe it wasn't…" thought Chaos.

He wished he could talk with the universe core itself, but he knew that was just impossible. How could someone even do such a thing?

Maybe through the system?

He gave it a try.

"Can I speak with you?" he asked to the system window.

Silence.

Chaos felt embarrassed to have tried to do such a childish thing…

"Never mind." He thought, as he looked at the Abilities and Skills descriptions.

[Chaotic Body: Level 1]

Your body is encompassed with chaos and made by chaos as well. Due to this, all of your physical capabilities are enhanced by +20% with each level of this Skill. And while using Chaos Magic or a Chaos Aura that envelops your body, your physical stats are increased by +10% with each level momentarily.

Your body is resistant to all elements and can manage to disrupt them if they hit you directly, elements can also be dispelled and even spells of intricate structures could be deciphered when they hit your body, which then can generate ways and counter measures to make such spells ineffective or greatly weaken their effects. The power of such capabilities is enhanced with each skill level.

"Chaotic Heart, Chaotic Soul, and Chaotic Body… these are three forbidden Abilities that have only been seen in beings who we can barely comprehend, they're way above our measly elements. Chaos is an element that encompasses all elements in constant turbulence and disorder… Can you imagine someone that has become the full embodiment of such a thing? It would be complete disaster…" Ar' Tzu, Elder Warlock.

….

This Skill made it, so Chaos had the complete collection now, Chaotic Heart, Chaotic Soul, and Chaotic Body! He wondered if something could happen if he could manage to merge these Abilities. But unlike Skills, Abilities cannot be merged with Synthesis and can only combine when something special happens…

[Chaos Lord: Level 1]

You're a Lord of Chaos. Your power over this element is superb and therefore you're given such a Title to demonstrate that you conquered this element, and it is your domain.

All damage using Chaos Attribute is enhanced by +20% with each level, and now, every Chaos Attribute ability comes with the following effects:

If Attack-type, creates a [Miasma Infection] on the target's wounds which inhibits regeneration and makes for festering wounds that grow bigger as the fight continues. If the blows hit the target's soul, the soul is also infected.

If Defense-type, creates a [Elemental Disruption] and [Elemental Absorption] effect. Elemental attacks deal less damage and can be disrupted, weak enough spells will disintegrate as their runic structures dissipate by merely touching your chaos barriers.

If Support-type, grants the [Blessing of Chaos] and the [Chaotic Damage Absorption] effects. Anyone that receives your support spells, even you, acquires an enhancement to all their stats of up to +20% temporarily for 10 minutes, while they gain the ability to absorb damage dealt against them up to +10%.

"A Chaos Lord is a being that you can only fear. Their power over this disrupting and mysterious element is incredible. They are beings that mere mortals cannot handle, only Gods might stand a chance, and even them had been seen falling to their power too… devoured into their dark maws…" Luminous Drakenn, Holy Light Dragon.

This other Skill… Chaos Lord… it was something else! It held so many effects it was confusing already.

Yet it was fascinating for Chaos as well!
