Charles must have thought I would find value in his daughter if I realized she had a very useful Gift that I could exploit.
It was a very smart move to make, but his reasoning was flawed.
Why would I choose to bring extra baggage with me just for her Gift, especially when I was responsible for the death of both her parents and even everyone she had come to know and love?
There was also one last thing Charles was unaware of… something no one currently knew. Since I had a bit of time left, I could simply tell him as a parting gift—for old times' sake.
"In the future, there'll be something known as the 'System Shop', where Gifted exchange Karma Points for nearly everything. When that time comes, Karma Points will determine nearly everything about a Gifted." I spoke, moving closer to the man.
"You can obtain food, clothing, supplies, even Skills… if you have enough Karma Points…" My voice trailed.
