[You have aquired the skill (Unique)]
'Wha- why did I just get it tho? Pretty much sure I already had the title
Tapping on his newly aquired skill, a new holographic screen appeared infront of him.
(Passive)
As you venture forth into the unknown, you are bound to find those you can trust and call 'friends'.
The stronger your bond becomes, the stronger you become.
Current Bonds: 0
'Fuck, what do you mean I have no friends!?! Ugh, maybe it only counts after I got this skill and so I have to meet them again so that it registers? Whoever designed this shit should go burn in hell, what if I had a friend who had to go to another country? Well not that I do have another friend other than Jake...'
'Hm, by the looks of it, it makes me stronger the more friends I make? I'm so screwed...'
Before Flint could continue to reflect on how he could possibly raise his communication skills without looking like a lunatic, he was pulled away from his thoughts as he noticed a commotion happening at the center of the auditorium.
A boy with black hair and glasses was currently yelling with a crazed and disgusting expression on his face at a girl. He soon grabbed her arm and said, "Tch, if only Irene didn't have an Epic class I wouldn't have had to settle on you. You should be proud to able to be part of my harem!"
Nobody was helping her currently, not because they didn't want to, it's just that four-eyes here spent all his stat points on intelligence and has the rare class pyromancer so all previous attempts proved futile so instead they had planned to just gang up on him when he would let down his guard.
'Wouldja look at that? A extremely convenient guinea pig just showed up. Time to test out my luck and pray to RNGesus. Activate
A second later and now 5 card appeared before him, their backs currently facing him. All of them looked like blank cards.
'Guaranteed rare skill huh, atleast I got a trump card now,' and with that thought out of the way, Flint took all five card and heard five 'ding' sounds and looked at the new notifications that appeared.

'Ah right. I don't have a weapon... so does that means 3 of those cards are currently useless? One can only be used once and is my trump card and the other is mostly for utility purposes...'
'Well atleast I have a permanent skill, uhh, use the skill card for

'Yes'

Flint looked at his arms to confirm if the skill worked or not and indeed it did.
'Well atleast I got a backup plan incase Jake failed or got hurt.' Flint knew for a fact that Jake would go and save the girl from the hands of this crazy chuuni and so he originally planned to get atleast one magic skill to support Jake from the back but his plan failed so instead he decided to get
'Well atleast I got the skill in time,' Flint muttured to himself as he saw Jake go and confront the wannabe "chosen one".
"What? Can't you see I'm busy here?" The chuuni said, still focusing on the girl.
"Dude, grow up man. Leave her alone bro, if your gunna put her in your harem or whatever, don't force her and especially not infront of the entire school. I mean, you do realize you are severely outnumbered and there are 2 people with epic classes here, why would they let you just sexually assault a girl?" Although Jake said those words, he knew that his plan would crumble if the chuuni even had a shred of intelligence and would threaten to kill her, so he planned to just be a distraction until backup came.
The chuuni now looked back at Jake and said, "Hah, do you honestly think I'm stupid enough to make such a commotion, all I have to do is hold this girl hostage an-" until it was cut abruptly by a pain he suddenly felt around his nether regions. A pain so great he immediately fainted. Surprisingly, it wasn't Flint who did it, nope, it was the girl who got harassed. While Jake was distracting the chuuni, she found an opening and proceeded to kick his family jewels.
Silence filled the auditorium, Flint was glad it worked out and so he deactivated
"Wtf man, don't scare me like that!? So you got an assassin class or somethin?"
"Somethin like that, it was a plan B incase you failed whatever your plan was."
"Well, it worked out in the end. But we should not talk about this in the open cuz we're currently being stared at and it gives me the creeps."
"What did ya expect from pulling that stunt you did..."
"Yea yea, let's just go to a corner or whatever and figure out what to do next."
After the two finished talking, Jake waved at the girl and did a thumbs up sign at her, to which she responded by nodding her head.
They then went to a corner where there weren't too many students, while they sat down Flint noticed a notification message he received.
