BXBX NOVEL Chapter 373: Chapter 373: Changes
This snowballing effect of the experience points allowed him to gather a significant amount of experience, which in turn allowed him to cross the next great wall in his leveling.
It couldn\'t have come at a better time either, since what he needed the most right now was strength.
He did not have time to think about his exhaustion or how much blood he had shed at the moment. His entire attention was caught by the statue screen.

Eren couldn\'t help but repeatedly glance at the status screen. The information displayed there was particularly pleasing to his eyes.
Many things had changed on the status screen. The most significant change was that his stats had increased exponentially. Compared to before, he felt like an entirely different being.
With his current stats, he was confident he could survive even if he were to face an Overlord. And with the various tricks he had acquired, he might even be able to kill one, provided they let their guard down.
At the same time, Eren understood he was being overly optimistic. Just as he had his hidden capabilities, the Overlords surely had their own trump cards as well.
Until he crossed level fifty, he still couldn\'t openly fight any Overlord. Only when he reached that level, could his stats be comparable to them. At that time, he could be much more confident.
Another new change was that a new physique had appeared on his status screen. It was the Holy Physique, which he stole from the Holy Emperor.
It was also because of this physique, he could now pretend to be the Holy Emperor, even before those from the Holy Church.
He didn\'t have to worry about being discovered. Like those from the Western Continent, he could also use the holy essence. The only difference was that his holy essence didn\'t come from the Holy Church but from the citizens itself.
The blessing of the goddess had also increased. He still didn\'t understand what that stat meant or how it could be increased.
The most significant change was that a new skill had appeared. It was not particularly useful for combat, but it held great potential in other areas.
Eren discovered that he could create a clone using this new skill. The clone could mimic his aura, making it nearly indistinguishable from the original.
However, the clone was incredibly weak, possessing strength comparable to an ordinary human. This limited its usefulness in direct battles.
After returning to his room, Eren conducted thorough tests on the clone. He found that it could persist indefinitely, or at least until his mana reserves were depleted. With his growing mana capacity, this limitation was less concerning.
Another notable weakness was that the clone was fragile, easily destroyed if it sustained damage beyond a certain threshold. Given its weak strength, this threshold was quite low, restricting the clone\'s practical applications.
Overall, Eren recognized that this new skill, while not immediately beneficial in combat, could prove valuable in various situations where a decoy might be advantageous.
"Is this the effect of the Destiny Physique?" Eren wondered, observing the clone with a smile.
He had often read about the plot armor. When it was used by a main character against him, it was quite annoying. However, now that he was on the receiving end of the plot armor, he found it quite pleasing to the eye.
Even if the clone was weak, it was what he needed the most.
"With this, Zia wouldn\'t have to act and ruin her reputation," he said, only to shake his head lightly. "Then again, it\'s not as if it\'s not already ruined."
Along the way, he had heard quite a lot about the perversion of the two great elders who left their disciple to be protected by the Holy Emperor while they were doing each other in the room.
"It might already be too late to salvage that reputation." Sighing, he made the clone disappear and decided to check up on Zia.
He left his room and walked towards the rooms that were assigned to the Great Elders.
Along the way, he saw quite a few guards and servants. All of them lowered their gaze when they saw him, scared of him after what happened today.
Eren ignored their reactions and soon reached the rooms of the Great Elders. He hadn\'t even entered the room but he was still able to hear the moans of Zia.
"She is quite good at acting. Even I would\'ve been fooled if I didn\'t know better."
He used the Dragon Tongue Magic to open the door, not wanting to bother Zia with opening the door. Pushing the door open, he stepped inside.
In any case, she was just pretending in his eyes. It wasn\'t as if she was actually doing anything? Or so he thought.
The moment he entered the room, he froze in place at the sight he was seeing.
