Chapter 2 - Chpt 2 first journey

/Name: Via/

/talent copied: business intuition lvl 1, concentration lvl 1/

/stats: none above normal/

I stared at the visions I had seen since a child and studied it, the talents I had copied were from my parents as they were successful merchants and for a reason, the vision called itself an Artificial Intelligence, AI for short, I didn't quite understand what it meant but I figured out how to use it after years of trying different things

/name: Stan/

/talents: none/

I glanced at the coachman who was taking me to Fenglow City in a wagon, he seemed to be a normal person with nothing special about him so I turned to the boy who was riding together with me

/name: Feng Li/

/talent: perception lvl 1/

My eyes sparkled upon seeing this and stretched out my hand to shake his

"we got a long journey ahead how about an introduction? My name is Via"

I said in a greeting manner, the man shook my hand and replied

"Feng Li, hope we find our journey enjoyable"

"naturally"

I said before starting a conversation, soon it was getting late and together with Stan, the coachman, we set up camp

It would take us approximately 3 days to get to Fenglow City, when I lay on my side of the wagon I opened my AI status again

/Name: Via/

/talent: ..., perception lvl 1/

I had managed to copy Feng Li's talent when I shook his hand earlier, I pressed on the talent and a description appeared

/user will have a heightened sense towards his surroundings and will be able to sense the power of Li with less difficulty/

I beemed with joy and my excitement kept me from sleeping, although the change wasn't noticeable when I first got the talent now that I focused on my surroundings I felt I could hear better, my sense of smell improved and even my vision was clearer and more responsive than before

When I woke up the next morning the distance had become even more noticeable as it usually takes time for talents that I have copied to strengthen themselves

Unfortunately it didn't seem I could copy skills or experience and would have to work hard to become stronger

Feng Li said he was going to Fenglow city to become a Xin artist as his father was friends with a famous Xin artist

Unfortunately for me I didn't have any martial backing and had no choice but to become a Jin artist

Although Jin artists had an advantage over Xin artists in close combat and their survivability was higher than Xin artists it still wasn't the ideal dream I was looking for

Xin artists were a mystery that I craved to solve, their power allows them to fly in the air and attack from a distance

Although Xin artists have very strong attacks their defense was very low, also they could not fight for a very long time as their stamina wasn't as good as a Jin artist

The difference was like warriors and archers, the warriors (Jin) would be in the front line defending the archers (Xin) behind as they hurled attacks from the back

But this didn't mean either one of them was weaker than the other, those at the same level would have trouble fighting the other either way
