Chapter 111 Third Skill
"Whoo, whoo, I became too excited and ran all the way here..." Jesse stepped inside the elevator and rubbed his aching legs.
However, the idea of his skill was rent-free in his head, and he couldn't get rid of it.
'It is a very bizarre skill if I can do it. I wonder if I can, since it isn't really a realistic move.
However, neither is Karma's ability to summon crows from black feathers.
'Many players are so far keeping their feet on the ground without trying to create any non-realistic skills. However, I think this game was developed to be realistic but also non-realistic.
This might, after all, be very much a fantasy world where players might even be able to fly in the future.'
Jesse pressed the fourth floor button and rubbed his neck. He couldn't wait to reach his room and enter Martial Online to see whether it would be possible.
"P-please, k-keep the door open!" A hurried, shy voice came from the hallway as Jesse turned to see a young girl rushing towards the closing elevator doors.
Jesse put his hand between the closing elevator doors and stopped them from closing any further.
The doors opened again, and the young girl rushed inside, panting and out of breath.
"T-thanks." Emma said and turned to look at the person who was with her on the elevator.
However, she suddenly became much shyer, as she at first thought it was another servant and not her new sibling, Jesse.
"No problem." Jesse smiled and asked. "Which floor?"
"F-f-four..."
Jesse nodded and pressed the fourth floor button again. The elevator door closed, and the elevator slowly began ascending from the first floor.
Emma hugged tightly the red-eyed white bunny on her arms as she watched the numbers on the elevator display change.
She threw a glance in the direction of Jesse but quickly looked away again.
Jesse saw it with his peripheral vision. He thought about Holly when she was the same age.
She was still very innocent and clingy, as they were very close, but once she reached high school age, she slowly changed until only contempt was left in her eyes.
'I don't want her to be the same.' Jesse glanced at Emma and then opened his mouth. "What is her name?"
"O-oh?" Emma flinched and looked at Jesse. She then saw him look at her bunny, and she softly whispered. "B-Bella..."
"That's a cute name." Jesse said aloud. "How long have you two been friends?"
Emma buried her face in the fluffy head of the bunny and whispered. "F-four years... mom and dad gave it to me as a birthday gift..."
Ding—the elevator reached the fourth floor, and the door opened.
Emma then rushed out of the elevator and ran towards her room, clutching the stuffed bunny tightly in her arms.
She opened the door and rushed inside before closing it.
Jesse scratched the back of his head and left the elevator. He walked down the hallway, wondering what had just happened.
Soon, with the help of his small map, he found his room and entered it.
After changing his clothes to casual ones, he walked to his desk and looked at his white VR headset.
He took it into his arms and went to his bed, but then remembered one thing.
"I should perhaps visit the bathroom before going in..." Jesse scratched the back of his head and went to the bathroom to empty his bladder.
He then returned to the bed, laid down and placed the VR headset around his head.
"I hope it works..."
...
Emma hopped on top of her bed with a white bunny in her arms.
There were dozens of plushies scattered across the room, each with its own unique personality.
The walls were painted pink and white stripes, giving the room a whimsical and playful feel.
She then sat up and placed the white bunny next to her pillow.
After petting the white bunny in the head, she hurried towards the cabinet, opened the wooden doors, and took out a black headset.
"I wonder if Bella is there already..." Emma whispered gently with a cute smile and rushed back to her bed.
She put her head on her pillow, right beside the white bunny, and placed the VR headset around her head.
She closed her eyes and entered the virtual world.
...
Ambrose opened his eyes and woke up to the sight of the ordinary-looking inn room with an uncomfortable bed under him.
He sat up and rubbed his temples.
After gathering his thoughts, he realized that he was still inside Tonshen Village.
'Let's check whether I am alone...' He sat cross-legged and summoned his soul.
The world froze as an azure-blue figure left his body.
Without having to give orders, the soul flew through the ceiling and looked around the Tonshen.
It soon returned to Ambrose, bringing news that he was all alone.
'Even though I am alone, that might change in a few hours. I can't stay here, but for now...' Ambrose rubbed his hands and took out a skill scroll from his inventory.
He opened it, showing an empty interior.
"Alright, let's see. Please work." Ambrose took a deep breath, and an image appeared in his mind.
The empty skill scroll started glowing with a brilliant, golden light.
The empty scroll started to have an image of an injured person trying to stand up.
It was clear that this skill was going to be special, as this was the first time this scenario had happened!
Ding, ding—Ambrose opened his eyes with a smile creeping up on his face.
[Skill has been successfully created!]
[Do you want to name your skill?]
[Y/N]
"Yes." Ambrose had already thought about the name. It was something that was the main reason for his hardships.
However, he hoped that this skill would also bring similar hardships to his enemies.
[Choose the name!]
Ambrose took a deep breath and said.
"Humanoid Imperfecta!"
[Skill "Humanoid Imperfecta" has been created!]
[Humanoid Imperfecta: An attack with cursed energy. If the attack lands on the target, it will drain their life force, weakening them for one minute. During that one minute, they are very fragile to every attack, and their defenses are significantly reduced]
Ambrose looked at the description of his skill with a wry smile.
"It's an attack that gives my enemies temporary Humanoid Imperfecta. Truly a bizarre skill; I can't believe it worked, haha." Ambrose pulled out his Black Sword and already wanted to test it in a battle.
He then sheathed his sword and decided to leave Tonshen Village before it was too late.
After leaving his inn room, he departed from the inn and walked towards the ruined Village Chief's house.
It was still smoking even after a day, but that was to be expected.
As he walked past the ruined house, he caught a glimpse of something. It was something shiny that caught his eye.
He curiously walked over the burned rubble and moved the black wooden planks out of the way.
In the rubble, there was a metal safe.
"A safe?" Ambrose curiously thought. He wondered what it might hold. He then removed the rest of the rubble and tried to carry it, but it was quite heavy.
However, with a few grunts, he managed to toss it into his inventory.
"Whew..." Ambrose then took a last look at the destroyed village, pulled out an apple from his inventory, and munched on it while walking away. His health slowly recovered.
'I still have thirty stat points to use. I will spend those when I am somewhere safe.'
After ten minutes, a wagon pulled by two neighing horses reached the outskirts of Tonshen Village. The driver whistled and wondered what happened here after seeing all the destroyed houses.
He then knocked on the wall behind him.
"We have arrived!"
Inside the wagon, Cerberus opened his cold eyes.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
