That was Nemesis's present status. The additional points were from Heaven's Defier. The curses attached to it? Meh, they were negated by his talent since they were considered attacks. So yes, Defier didn't have any negative effects on him as it was supposed to—only positive ones.

Nemesis, planning to use the Defying Heaven skill, slashed at the demonic sandworm, cutting it wide open. The cut ran from the worm's mouth to its bottom. The only reason the demonic sandworm wasn't split into two was because he was inside and facing just one direction.

His stats after using the skill were heavenly and broken. With these stats, he was sure he was among the strongest beings in the world. The power within him was so immense that it threatened to tear his body apart.

[Congratulations on killing the level 55 Demonic Sandworm! You have leveled up!]

The system prompt notified him, but Nemesis wasn't paying attention. He was too busy relishing the feeling of having overwhelming strength—though sadly, he could only use it for a minute.

[Congratulations! Heaven's Defier has successfully stolen the attributes of the Demonic Sandworm.]

[Heaven's Defier has stolen 10% of the life force of the Demonic Sandworm.]

[Heaven's Defier has stolen the stamina of the Demonic Sandworm. User has regained 5% of total stamina.]

Nemesis smiled widely—the first time he had smiled so unreservedly in years. His luck was solid; with only a 10% probability, he had managed to steal the Demonic Sandworm's abilities.

The Demonic Sandworm's status before its demise was:

Demonic Sandworm

Lv: 55

Health: 500,000

Strength: 67

Speed: 56

Stamina: 79

Intelligence: 25

Constitution: 79

And now, all those stats belonged to Nemesis, making his current status:

The ten points he gained from leveling up had already been allocated to intelligence. Looking at his stats, he couldn't help but feel a bit smug. Surprisingly, even the difficult-to-earn Divinity stat was affected by the active skill.

Nemesis checked the loot in his inventory from killing the Demonic Sandworm:

Sand Armor (Epic grade)

Sand Boots (Superior grade)

ExoShield (Superior grade)

Those were the only passable loots, according to Nemesis's standards—the rest were Rare.

Sand Armor (Epic grade):

+5% increased defense

Skill (Active) – Sand Diving: Dive into the sand to evade an attack for ten seconds. Cooldown: 6 hours.

Sand Boots:

+6 Speed

+3 Stamina

+2 Strength

Skill (Active) – Speed Boost: Gain an additional +10 Speed for one minute. Cooldown: 30 minutes.

Nemesis didn't bother checking the ExoShield's attributes since he wasn't going to use it. The Sand Armor was also worthless to him, but he equipped it nonetheless since he was still naked from the corrosive body fluids of the Demonic Sandworm.

A minute had passed since activating Defying Heaven, and his stats returned to normal. He felt a bit resentful losing so much strength, but he didn't let it bother him.

Nemesis attempted to store Heaven's Defier in his inventory, but he couldn't—the sword disappeared, and in its place, a tattoo appeared on his right arm. The reason was obvious.

"Finally, fresh air… well, not as fresh as the human world, but I won't complain. Better than being stuck in a worm. Now, where the hell did that damn worm take me?" Nemesis muttered, looking around.

The Demonic Sandworm had definitely moved locations during the past days he had been trapped inside. Taking in his surroundings, he was met with a stunning image.

Hundreds of Demonic Goblins were kneeling before him in reverence.

"What the…?" Nemesis was completely bewildered by the scene.

Demonic Goblins, unlike typical goblins that were green, were all black with glowing red eyes. Aside from that, there weren't many differences between them and normal goblins.

"Great god, thank you for showing us mercy and slaying the great evil for our sake. We will forever worship you for generations to come," a weak-looking goblin with a stick by his side said, his head bowed like the others.

"Thank you, great god!!" the other goblins echoed in unison, their voices booming.

Nemesis stared at the scene in disbelief, unable to comprehend what was happening.

[Congratulations! You have received the worship and reverence of a Demonic Goblin village.]

[+2 Divinity points.]

[New skills unlocked – Check your status window for more details.]

"???!?!"

Nemesis was confused and speechless. He couldn't comprehend what was happening.

From the moment he arrived in the Demon Realm until now, everything had been nothing short of bizarre. First, he was swallowed by a Demonic Sandworm—his fault. Then, he found the baby of his life, Heaven's Defier, killed the annoying Sandworm, and now, a group of Demonic Goblins was worshipping him for some reason that he was unable to comprehend, and the divinity stats? Increasing just like that, for free, indeed the demon realm was a realm of crazy things, Nemesis firmly believed.
