G. Chapter 44
The little girl wasn't annoying. I expected her to be. She just ate and dozed off. She didn't insist on playing with her. Haagh, I think she was slightly afraid of me. She might be wary of strangers.
I thought it would be troublesome to look after kids. I used to hear my brother saying how my sister clung on to him and cried to perform magic spells for her and how she played with and removed the parts of kitchen utensils. They had to check on her every second to make sure nothing dangerous happens.
But I had no problems that sort of. I kept an eye on her until her mother came. I went to a theatre next. It's been a week since I watched a movie in a theatre.
The movie was good, it's a horror comedy. A group of people with their shortcomings or disabilities and a female ghost seeking revenge is the general plot story. The movie had many references. Even though the whole movie presented nothing new, it was executed well. I had a nice time watching the movie.
Now I am in my room. I opened the map function to check if there are any suspicious people nearby. I received some notification and messages from different groups yesterday. They are all invitations to join their groups. Our competition video should have spread by now.
I politely sent a message to everyone refusing their invitations. I don't want to keep on receiving invitations again. There may be people who come to the door to invite into their groups. Fortunately no one came. It will be awkward talking face to face with them. I hate to be a part of an awkward conversation.
I tried to relax myself. I don't need to worry. I have nothing to worry about. It might be my unwanted imagination or because I am slightly nervous. I did nothing wrong and nobody's going to come after me,.. yet.
I opened the system storage and took out a yellow mask or it should be called a helmet. A yellow and black helmet that fully covers my head. A glossy helmet to protect my head. Between a mask and a helmet, I chose to wear a helmet. It's a blazing yellow coloured helmet with black coloured eyes and some black patterns. There's no mouth, I felt funny and couldn't come up with a proper design with a mouth.
I like yellow and I didn't consider other colours for the helmet. I checked different shades of yellow but fixed with blazing yellow in the end. Blazing yellow isn't too bad for this helmet, I was hesitant at first. I don't care how others feel but this helmet looks good.
I have to say my plans for my future magic cultivation should be considered crimes according to the law. I need protection for my safety. And I have to hide my original identity too.
This helmet is for my protection and to hide my identity. I don't want my head to explode from a sniper's rune bullet.
The production function is one of the best things ever. This helmet was created with the production function. But the cost was huge. This helmet required three hundred thousand system energy units to create it. As per the system, one hundred system energy units are equal to one Emperor Realm Mage's full energy. It might differ from person to person, but you can take one hundred system energy units equal to one Emperor Realm Mage's full energy based on 100% mage cultivation. And now the energy required to create this helmet can be imagined.
If I had materials, the cost would be less. But I had no reason to request materials from my family. I mean, I can't say I want to create a mask and do crimes. And this led to the cost reaching sky high. This helmet was created from pure energy.
This is one of the reasons I waited for eight months, to save the required amount of system energy units. Now with this helmet more than half of the system energy units are consumed.
Still I only got a helmet, nothing else. No suits or boots. I don't have enough system energy units to create them. It will take a long time before I have full equipment.
I wore the helmet. Runes flashed and the helmet adjusted itself on my head for my comfort. A black strip extended from the helmet and covered my neck. There's no worry that I will get beheaded or receive a threatening blow to my neck.
A protective film from the helmet covered my body. This protects me from any type of slashes,cuts and piercing. But if I get hit, I will still get hurt and feel the pain. This protective film helps me from leaving any type of evidence that may reveal my identity.
A formation is formed in the protective film. This formation has many high level runes in it. The formation turned into a long mark and covered my left hand. This mark on the protective film neutralises my passive ability "A True Friend; A Vicious Enemy" on other life forms. I can't do my crimes when I go out with every demon and beasts getting affected from my passive ability.
This formation does help me a lot. I don't have to worry about getting discovered because of my passive ability. The mark on my left hand may raise curiosity in the onlookers and some formation masters may even guess the mark as a high level formation. Bless them. But they can't find what this formation can do. These runes and the formation are from the Old Universe. On me, the runes and the formation will mean something but in this New Universe these runes and the formation are just some attractive design.
I do wish the system gives me a formation that neutralises the effect of my passive ability on me. It will be handy during an emergency situation. But from what I learned from the system I should just give up this thought. I don't think I will ever cause a massacre.
