The young man returned to his body in a good mood and without any accumulated fatigue. Even the reserve wasn't fully spent, and his head wasn't too sore from the very difficult task of microcontrolling many separate groups of spirits. The System was giving off the equivalent of a flicker, indicating that he had managed to earn at least a new level, but that didn't seem to be all. It felt good and calm, as it always did after you had managed to do a nasty thing to someone who had once seriously offended you with impunity. Yes, Stepan grew up a kind and sympathetic boy, often ready to help just like that, sometimes even to his own detriment, from which his kindness, sometimes, tried to abuse. But as he grew up to be a kind boy, so he turned out to be, to an even greater extent, a vindictive, even vindictive, sometimes even writing down, if there was no hope for memory. And at such moments, when he paid the bills with another asshole, he was always covered with a warm and tender wave of peace.

He intended to study the system's message flood, as had become tradition, a little later, when he reached home and settled into a proper bed. After leisurely packing, dressing, and disbanding his entourage, giving away the remnants of the fee that had eaten up almost the entire night, he returned to the house at dawn, sitting on the porch for a while, gazing at the sun and meditating, replenishing his strength and reserve. There was a small bag of nuts waiting for him in the house, which he ate in his thoughts, and then Meld fetched breakfast, having been told by the shaman not to disturb him and to let him sleep, drowning himself in his girlfriend. Only after he had satisfied his hunger and put himself in order, Stepan closed the window with the summoned spirit, which plunged the house into darkness, lay down on the bed, and began to look at the vengeful adventure.

Received: "methods of undercover work"; increased intuitive understanding of actions in undercover activities; increased likelihood of acquiring knowledge and properties of the spy and undercover use branch of the gift.

Camrad_RIP 08.07.24 в 17:28

The acquired talent is added to the overall Player status.

Camrad_RIP 08.07.24 в 17:25

Stepan had time to be pleasantly surprised at the fact that he had received such a useful thing for himself personally, both now and in the future, and then he was flooded with knowledge. It was not like the principle of the mastery of combat calls, not reflexes, and tricks, but knowledge, standard within the framework of the System, but at the same time very deeply interacting with reflexes, too, which made it involuntarily similar to the mentioned tricks. He was glad to have made contact with a couple of entities, what kind of entities hide energy trails? Now he knew not a couple of them, and the entities themselves were of a larger caliber, all the necessary offerings and methods of dialog were also present in the information block. Hiding traces, aura, spirit, interference with mass or targeted search charms, methods of extracting information about who is looking for you - an extremely rich list of interesting approaches to his gift.

Camrad_RIP 08.07.24 в 17:31

Charms and suggestions began to reveal themselves in a useful way. Synergy opened up not so much new ways to brainwash and instill feelings, as methods to do it unnoticed by the victim and those who would then see the victim every day. Creating double and triple agents, false identities, even for oneself, to simply not remember compromising information and readily swear that one knows nothing about something. Interception of control over other people's influences, the ability to leave their corrections to the work of another master brainwasher, so that the always faithful bed slave suddenly sticks a needle in her master's eye during intercourse. Distorting vows and contracts, gradually removing them, or imposing additional penalties on an unsuspecting victim, followed by a final blow. Creation of a lair, not only as a place of power, but as a shelter, one-time or long-term, for now, or in conservation, so that one can come there decades later.

Camrad_RIP 09.07.24 в 04:40

Techniques for surviving in the wilderness, concealing oneself from prowling trackers, throwing them off the trail, and confusing tracks. Tactics for ambushing hunters or avoiding ambushes, whether in the wilderness or an urban environment. The most suitable spirits for the entourage during an operation to kidnap a hostage, seize a document, or extract information of a certain nature. A very serious block of work with bypassing traps within curses or opening monolithic defense arrays on their own. Escape or battle in the spirit world, tracking shamans through the spirit world and the real world, the difference in approach to the same tracking, only for classical mages, druids, witches, priestesses, or cultists of demon worship. Methods to figure out the wanted individual if they are trying to hide, ways to determine the strengths and weaknesses of the chosen target.

Camrad_RIP 09.07.24 в 04:53

Gathering information about personal, social and organizational vulnerabilities, gathering dirt through dream spirits or mental tricksters. Battle rituals and powerful rituals in the city limits or other monitored locations, ways to conduct them unnoticed and hidden from search. Techniques for fighting in the same conditions, to finish everything as quickly as possible, raise a minimum of noise. Hiding their aura or disguising it as someone else's with the help of correctly called spirits, which should be put on himself, like an invisible coat. In the darkest cases, you can also put on someone else's aura by sacrificing the recipient to the desired spirit and then allowing the spirit to cover you.

Camrad_RIP 09.07.24 в 04:55

He came out of the trance in the middle of the day, rolled over onto his other side, scratched his ass, congratulated himself on becoming, if not an elite James Bond, at least a larval stage of Jason Bourne, and then went for a bath. His body was sweating as if it had been wrung out again, I was ungodly thirsty, and a pack of jackals had shit in his mouth. After the first portion of joy, Stepan takes another update. This time, according to the system, he did not commit the deed. It's obvious - to compare the complexity and risk of that insane marathon of killing aggressive spirits before they kill him, yes with the past almost entirely according to plan operation to cause grievous justice.... well, that's improper, to say the least.

Camrad_RIP 09.07.24 в 13:17

The scale is incomparable.

Camrad_RIP 09.07.24 в 13:17

So the system congratulated the guy on the fact that instead of "deed" he had done "act", which is probably good too, although he wondered what the ranking of these, in fact, hidden quests was. System Help, as it is not difficult to guess, on this topic was silent, like a partisan at the interrogation in the Gestapo, and a mute partisan at that.

Camrad_RIP 09.07.24 в 05:00

A meaningful act has been accomplished!

Camrad_RIP 08.07.24 в 18:42

For the accomplished revenge against an influential and noble enemy who wished your death, for the scope and targeting of this revenge, for a comprehensive approach to it, and for the care shown, a corresponding reward is provided!

Camrad_RIP 09.07.24 в 05:01

Received: increase a random meta-skill by one point; two development points to a random meta-skill from a yet-to-be-discovered meta-skill.

Camrad_RIP 09.07.24 в 05:02

Additional reward from Liarat si Merrinal, Lady of Gifts and Gift-giver, loyal servant of Innelas Innelay: one random property of advanced or elite type.

Camrad_RIP 09.07.24 в 05:01

This time the reward was considerably more moderate, but Stepan didn't have any mortal risk or anything like that, even on the contrary, everything went as he wanted. He prepared, reconnoitered the situation, adjusted plans under the new data, silently and without pathos battles fulfilled what he had planned, and then left, hiding all possible traces. Not badly, by the way, hiding, as new knowledge suggested. It could have been better, but he didn't make any stupid mistakes, only a few little things, some of which could even be corrected a little later, for his comfort.

Camrad_RIP 09.07.24 в 13:39

This kind of pumping was to the shaman's liking, but to do something like this regularly, looking for and cleaning up all sorts of lairs of warlocks.... no, he didn't want to do that. He remembered all too well how he had been flooded with those images of the last hours of the gutted young man's life. Stepan did not regret what he had done. He didn't think he had overdone justice - if only on a scale that might attract attention - he wasn't going to have nightmare dreams about the faces of the dead men who came to him, just as he hadn't seen them before, after a fight with brigands or a group sent after him. But to engage in such activities regularly would definitely lead to mental disabilities, not to mention the fact that no one had promised him that he would be rewarded for every single moral and mental freak. On the contrary: he didn't just extinguish a random necromancer, or rather, blow him up with fireworks, he was avenging an attempt to harm him personally.

Camrad_RIP 09.07.24 в 13:47

This is without even touching on such a small detail as the presence of practically all such ghouls (sometimes not only figurative) have quite real patrons and those who benefit from their practices. Those who use their services, and do not give a damn, despite all the immorality and even lawlessness. If Stepan goes out on the warpath and starts tearing the nostrils and stopping the hearts of such people, he has every chance of success, the first couple of times, let it be ten times, let it be even twenty because he will grow and develop. But then real pros will come after him, who can't be deceived or led astray, they will come and start asking uncomfortable questions. Stepan, taking into account the speed of his development, will be able to answer some of them, but the war with the whole world is doomed to failure ... if started at the current level.

Camrad_RIP 09.07.24 в 13:59

He wasn't a fan of killing, even killing those who deserved something worse than death in a good way, but he didn't dislike the idea. And when he reached the rank of High Shaman, consolidated his power and position, and gained legend and patrons, he might revisit the idea. Even then, he could hardly punish every injustice in the world, punish every dishonorable scoundrel, if only because then he would have to start with the local rulers and work his way down the chain. No, he's not idealistic enough to try to help everyone for free and to make sure that no one goes away offended except the bad guys, among whom no one goes away either.(*) But to eradicate the abomination of small things, like such freaks as Rumorias was, or better yet, to take some territory under his patronage, to get a job there as a "court magician", and then legally demand from those around him to observe the laws of the world, God, conscience and honor, and whoever refuses, the terrible spirit will bite his balls off.

Camrad_RIP 09.07.24 в 14:02

Such a dream, which is more properly called a wet dream, but he can actually reach the level of power when it will be cheaper for even complete assholes, who do not want to change anything in their way of life, to go along with it than to try to strike an insolent upstart (which will not prevent them from trying to strike him). Yes, these are clearly very long-range plans. They are triggered by the moment, by meeting the dirty underside of this world. He can change his mind a thousand times, or find a better goal, but why not dream, since no one is charging for those dreams?

Camrad_RIP 09.07.24 в 14:11

Stepan clenched his teeth as the gift from the Autogoddess, given for his deed, began to melt itself into the shaman's essence. This time the main sensations were concentrated as if in blood vessels and parts of thin bodies responsible for those vessels, as well as in the loins, which were burning not painful, but very intense heat while the veins and arteries flowed the same intense and even pleasant cold. He endured it all in silence, not even blinking - because he kept his eyes closed from the beginning - and when he opened those eyes and began to analyze the truly powerful property, although not reaching in value to the Shroud and Transformation, as well as not increasing the characteristics. He was not even surprised and angry. He was just tired already. He didn't have enough fervor in his ass even for another indignation, no spicy seasoning would help.

Camrad_RIP 09.07.24 в 14:13

The property was called "heritage in blood and spirit", somewhat strengthening the connection with the spheres, but even at a minimum not comparable to the proper marks, as well as markedly improving the already good health, as well as longevity. Another plus thirty years of youth, although for him, with his characteristics and the possibility of if not buying himself legal and not bloody alchemy, then establishing contracts with the right spirits, it has long been not so useful. The main, and perhaps the main, function of the property was to provide power not for himself, but for his offspring, even if without the ability to pass on the system to his children and grandchildren. The power was what mattered. Magical gift and the potential for its development, which any of his offspring, accidental or not, will be at the level at which such a descendant will become an adept only if he will make conscious efforts in an attempt to remain mediocre, and even then it will not work. A minimum of a master, with minimal support and the presence of minimal resources, on bare talent and intuitive understanding of magic. If we are talking about systematic and confident development there is the road to the magisters or higher.

Camrad_RIP 09.07.24 в 05:05

If we are talking about the fact the child's mother will also turn out to be not so simple, things are even more fun. Because the child will take the best features of the parents' gift, increasing the potential in these directions, the child is guaranteed to have this potential fifty percent higher than that of the mother and (or) father. All in all, not a trait, but some kind of a breeding bull's license, no other way. Stepan would not call this gift completely unnecessary. In the future, such a gift could certainly come in handy, no doubt, but now it was just dead weight. And, well, not quite dead, he could sacrifice his semen to the spirits. Now it's a very cool reagent. It had been before, as well as any gifted with a bright aura, but now it was like liquid gold or even platinum!

Camrad_RIP 09.07.24 в 06:15

In general, just as Stepan didn't think of doing such things before, he doesn't plan to do it now, no, no, thank you, Big Milf, but he'll pass, it's not that kind of upbringing, the problem is not in you, but in him, and all that.

Camrad_RIP 09.07.24 в 06:23

There would be another reason not to take off the Shroud but this property, fortunately, wasn't shown in the aura, only with a really deep scan, which just a glance can not spend. No, some witchcraft practices can help you find or recognize strong blood. There are the right spirits, which when planted in the eyes or other parts of the body, will recognize the strength in the blood and compatibility with members of the family, but these are tolerable problems. Who in their right mind would walk down the street with such a specific spirit, witchcraft, or classic scanning weave, checking every passerby for suitability to leave offspring?
Ха-Ха.

Camrad_RIP 09.07.24 в 06:30

Absolutely, no one!

Camrad_RIP 09.07.24 в 06:34

And this is even good. It is almost impossible to hide such a property normally with a shroud for the same reason it is not shown in the aura - the wrong type of modification, too deep and at the same time distributed level, it can not be taken out in a separate aura node and then masked. It remains either to look for very unusual ways to hide his "Chosenness", which can only attract even more attention, or just not bother, because to get under the right and properly skillfully executed scanning ... No, even Stepan's luck, which allowed him to pull out the only one of a hundred tickets on the exam, which he had not learned perfectly, had limits of logic and common sense.

Camrad_RIP 09.07.24 в 06:47

To the study of meta-skills the young man moved in a somewhat lyrical and melancholic mood, so that neither to be upset nor to be surprised, but to rejoice.... it was the only way to rejoice! Again the normal System, by the will of gracious admins and despite the intrigues of the Autogoddess, increased not frozen at two "lecherous development", but at the system clock. For the first time, Stepan was just happy that it wasn't the skill from Milf Goddess that had increased, but the not-quite-complete uselessness of the clock was a pleasant surprise. Now he realized that the note in the help that even seemingly useless meta-skills were no longer useless at high levels was completely true.

Camrad_RIP 09.07.24 в 06:59

After increasing the level of "temporal awareness III", once a day, for a period of five seconds, you could speed up your subjective perception of time tenfold. You can't move faster, but you can think or send images to your spirits, that's fine, that's possible, that's good. It would seem that it was not such an outstanding thing, although it was also very useful. Stepan himself knew how to accelerate consciousness and thinking, especially if out of the body, and special spirits, which will help to achieve the same effect exist, and he even knows how to call them, what offerings to buy in the system store. But the pumped clock was not classical magic and did not belong to it, being a manifestation of power that is higher than the local gods. That's why the acceleration from the system acted independently, it didn't require either mana or calls, it didn't stress the reserve and brains, and also, most importantly, it was compatible with any other ways to accelerate this very perception.

Camrad_RIP 09.07.24 в 14:15

It multiplied.

Camrad_RIP 09.07.24 в 07:02

"If I were a Warrior, I would agree to chew off my own arm for such a gift." Stepan declared mundanely and calmly, feeling very strange at the same time. "If only because if I were a Warrior, my arm would regenerate. Probably. Or not."

Camrad_RIP 09.07.24 в 14:31

The young man concentrated on the Status again, finding a new line there. The meta-skills, unlike everything else, were added immediately and automatically, as they did not burden either the mind, the subtle bodies, or the conscience. The System did not fail this time either, and only the received gift already on the second level was not too inferior to the watch, even slightly superior to it. The meta-skill called "Reserve Renewal II" at the first level could instantly replenish the magic reserve once a decade even after it was completely depleted, and this replenishment was not traumatic and completely harmless. At the second level, the waiting time was reduced from ten days to five, and the number of refresh charges became two. However if applied within an hour, one after the other, the second application would replenish only three-quarters of that reserve.

Camrad_RIP 09.07.24 в 14:33

It was a trick for a battle mage, adventurer, and risky guy, who was always in the epicenter of events, who quite estimates the probability of being among the enemies with an empty reserve as high, and therefore reinsures himself. Stepan did not consider himself an adventurer. He planned to stay as far away from the center of events as possible and for him, this modification is much less useful, but he was not going to give it up. It was a situational thing, but it could be used during calls, in case of sudden problems in the world of spirits, and even when captured, under the pumping out of the reserve, to fatally surprise the captor. The young man had already seen those situations or summons in which the use of this meta-skill was not only justified but also damn advantageous.

Camrad_RIP 09.07.24 в 14:38

If only those of dark or simply evil spirits, which always try the shaman for strength, if they see an opportunity: to drain the reserve for the call and the offering, to wait until the creature begins to get insolent, since the exhausted shaman will not oppose it, and the protective circle and tear can be, and then quickly restore themselves and with a nice smile to ask to be more modest in requests, or the shaman will take offense. A shaman is a very vulnerable creature, airy and romantic, you can not offend him, and he starts to cry. To offend a little shaman is almost like offending a catgirl, and who should you be to offend catgirls, really?

Camrad_RIP 09.07.24 в 14:39

Stepan assessed his meta-skills, and the System probably rated his condition as satisfactory for the last part of today's feast. He had managed to understand the image about getting to the twentieth level, which was not surprising, given the small amount of experience he had to gain before the breakthrough. If not for the "act", he had every chance to take the twenty-first level, or at least get more than two-thirds closer to it. As in the last promotion multiple of ten, this time the received talent point could be spent exclusively on properties, and elite to the extreme, tasty to salivation and screams of the inner munchkin. And, just like last time, the Autogoddess gave one additional property from herself as a gift, and it was at the same rank of power and strength.

Camrad_RIP 09.07.24 в 14:50

The aura twisted again. But now the sensation was different, unlike any he'd felt before. It was like he was being shaken, like a lump of clumped salt or powdered sugar, forcing him to crumble again into fine crumbs, powder, bits, and pieces, each of which was buffeted by a breeze, touched by tiny feathers. It was, as always, not painful, not even as intense as expected, but still a memorable experience, ten out of ten to never repeat. However, after looking at the result of these non-tortures, Stepan immediately changed his opinion, immediately wanting more and more, twice as much.

Camrad_RIP 09.07.24 в 14:55

The property of "patchwork spiritual echo" had a very strange nature, which Stepan felt very well at the moment of aura transformation. It was as if the spirit was disintegrating into small dust shreds, without losing its integrity or vulnerability, but taking advantage of the fact that these shreds could now be shifted in one way or another and in an appropriate order. This property could be considered the favorite child of both the shroud and transformation because synergized with both properties, it is just fiercely mad. Stepan assimilated the new understanding for a long time, diligently, persistently even, understanding every moment more and more, and slowly began to realize that the Autogoddess really gave a thing. He almost forced himself to thank her, through gritted teeth and in a whisper, but still he held himself back.

Camrad_RIP 09.07.24 в 14:56

First of all, we are talking about a new level of disguise, the ability to not just hide by the Shroud his gift or parts of it, but in general to change the aura as desired, pretending to be a completely different person. Combined with the newly acquired agent methods, Stepan almost had a puppyish excitement from the manifesting prospects. But expanding the functionality of the Shroud is still bullshit on the background of a deeper type of disguise. More recently, Stepan lamented about the impossibility of hiding his traces in the spirit world. experienced clairvoyants or masters of reading the subtle shades of auric imprints could still get on his trail. Now... well, it's gotten many times harder for them, if not by an order of magnitude, though the latter is very optimistic. Or, on the contrary, he was the one who was still being modest. That patchwork, constantly as if shaking from changes and reorganizations, the structure is in fact false, its spirit is still static. This trembling - it is like an analog of pulse or breathing, a natural process, harmless to the shaman, not affecting the deep basis of subtle bodies.

Camrad_RIP 09.07.24 в 15:01

But such a process disrupts the very adjustment to the imprints, each of the traces left by him is different in some way. It is impossible to find a similarity and trace the scheme, to create an accurate map of the aura and subtle body, to prepare a personal blow or particularly clever charms against a particular individual. Disguise, protection, and hell knows what else, especially if he does not leave anywhere hair, saliva, blood, and other body particles, because they contain the body and spiritual connection with him. It will be the very bridge that will help to pass this protection without notice. However, taking into account the method of battle so like Stepan somewhere out there, sitting in a fortified totem stronghold ... Here and explanations are unnecessary because it is the imprints and search on them Stepan should be afraid, with such tactics. You can't take the imprint off him unless he comes to voluntarily surrender after standing in a magic scanning circle for a couple of days while his patchwork echoes are deciphered.

Camrad_RIP 09.07.24 в 17:21

Everything is clear with the disguise pluses. Next, it's about working with spiritual transformation. A lot of things have improved here. It became easier to manipulate his limbs, to morph them, to change their properties, even the volume of these tentacles, pincers, and wings grew but all the same things gave him other things, simpler, like spiritual operation. What's important here is the way the mechanics of the Autogoddess's system, which complemented the system, outsmarted itself in its attempts to mold him into the perfect shamanic brainwasher. Since the system was clearly modified for Stepan's namesake, from the point of view of this modification, this property should have been used to manipulate the rest of the properties and, in particular, the marks of the spiritual spheres.

Camrad_RIP 09.07.24 в 17:22

For example, let's say Stepan Fatty, who for some reason chose the shamanic class instead of the THAT class, has a bunch of marks to strengthen his authority in front of charming spirits, and he needs to save his fat - if he doesn't want to lose weight and get prettier instead of cosplaying ugly bastards - ass from being penetrated by, let's say, a bandit's spear. He can take all these amplifying marks, and shift them towards the regular mark of the higher spheres. After that, the reinforced mark would temporarily become stronger, as if it had been invested with additional talents from those very marks that had become a reinforcing factor. Roughly speaking, it was an attempt to make the brainwasher a more combative individual or to strengthen some of the facets of the charms at the expense of the rest.

Camrad_RIP 09.07.24 в 17:25

But in the performance of Stepan, who was not so fat, the result was quite the opposite. He could take the same improved mark of passion, merge it with the mark of roots, strengthen it, and then add the mark of spheres to it, creating a megastructure. This is also difficult, and requires not so much reserve as concentration, complicating the subsequent dialog, because part of that concentration will be eaten up by attempts to hold the enhanced mark. But it would be possible to summon even those spirits that would otherwise behave very unseemly if they came. The fearful beast that had given him the oak leaf would not be under contract, but he could at least count on the fact that, when the leaf was activated, he would either not be eaten, or would be eaten last, giving him a chance to buy himself off.

Camrad_RIP 09.07.24 в 17:27

In fact, this gift opened up some interesting tactics, like the ability to take a large number of properties of the "mark someone" subtype and then manipulate them, shuffling and amplifying them without having to increase the ranks of those marks. Of course, this tactic has limits: merging three different marks while amplifying one is difficult, but possible. Repeat that with a dozen? You will tear yourself into the spiritual analog of the British flag, too much has to be changed and remade, the shreds risk not to bear the load, to become shreds not in the reflection-perception, but in the real state of a whole and indivisible spiritual body. And still, the possibility of throwing a couple of improvements into the same mark of spheres at the expense of the marks of roots and passions just surprisingly raises Stepan's mood, because HE CAN MAKE THE CHARMS WORK, damn it!

Camrad_RIP 09.07.24 в 17:29

The list of bonuses was rounded off with the increase in characteristics, which went unnoticed against the background of the basic transformation: a unit to Spirit, Sensitivity, and Control. It would be necessary to evaluate everything he had received in the next few days, during the new tests, but even now he could say that it made him much stronger. He also noticed that the previous elite trait had only two characteristics, while the new one had three, which was a trend.

Camrad_RIP 09.07.24 в 17:30

In a good way, Stepan should have fallen asleep, but he couldn't sleep at all, his body was throbbing with energy, and he wanted to roll mountains or at least move a table. And also he was literally burning a free point, the desire to put it in and become even better, even stronger, even cooler ... Well, he just wanted to be honest with himself, he just wanted to finish the transformation quickly and didn't want to waste another day lying in bed. As the day drew towards evening, Stepan bathed again and drank ice-cold water without fear of catching a cold thanks to his doubled Constitution, and then sat down to choose his options.

Camrad_RIP 09.07.24 в 17:32

Just like last time, his eyes were scattered, his sense of beauty was failing along with his sense of proportion, and his inner munchkin demanded to sell his ass and kidney to Great Milf and beg her for at least one more gift of the same kind, or better two, or even to pawn his balls along with his ass. How about the ability to work with the dimensionality of distance on a level that was completely unattainable before? So that you could not only transfer the totem through the right spirit but also jump. Stepan even now could do that, but with risk, heavy and preferably relying on his glade of wonders, and after modification, he would be able to make such transitions in the same way as he used to go to the neighboring city. Yes, a problem, you have to buy a ticket and wait for the bus, but nothing extraordinary. Or, maybe, the great isekai would like the opportunity to talk to elder spirits before the time, a kind of improvement of spiritual dialog to the level that you begin to understand even those spirits that are still out of your league, and they will understand you? Of course, understanding doesn't mean agreement or at least non-aggression, but he could call the elder spirits earlier due to his markings and knowledge, and with the new gift of the Autogoddess, even more so. The main thing is to reach an agreement, so that they understand what was said, and hear the proposal. The price isekai with the system store will be able to pay.

Camrad_RIP 09.07.24 в 17:40

The ability to make the body partially or completely phantom, giving it more spirit than body properties, was of great use. The very transition into a different form, the path to the ability to go to the world of spheres with the whole body, only much earlier and with the emphasis not on experience and knowledge, but on the property of aura and spirit. In general, even with such advantages, you should not float on the spheres without a reliable guard, because part of the skills of the supreme shaman does not mean that you have his power and ability. As a bonus, almost complete invulnerability to physical damage and the ability to become invisible without active magic, just going deeper into your own phantomness.

Camrad_RIP 08.07.24 в 17:56

He was delighted by the property that opened up the possibility of working with the spiritual reflection of Reality in an extremely flexible way, which was closer to witchcraft than to shamanism, but could be used to make totems, amulets, area effects, or even to give a shit the properties and spirit of gold so that it would also be perceived as gold in magical rituals. There are types of calls, where the value of the offering is also important, for example, drown a hundred kilograms of silver in the sea, and your expedition will not meet serious storms, or slaughter a herd of sacrificial bulls, getting a guaranteed harvest for the next ten years, even if the neighbors will not harvest a grain. With such spirits, you can buy a ton of manure, one gold coin, and then make the spiritual reflection of shit to take the form of a mountain of gold coins and - pop! Do great things. Just remember that the stronger the spirit, the more demanding, intelligent, and attentive it is, the more likely it is to see what such "gold" really is. This will hardly add kindness and forgiveness to the deceived essence.

However, Stepan put all these options aside for one reason or another, choosing the one he had dreamed of so much during the preparation for the Rural Vengeance operation.
