Kye just experienced a mix of a lot of different emotions in ten minutes. He first felt extreme pain because of the evolution process. He was then shocked to find that his system was related to angels and that he was now a half-angel. Then, thanks to the skills he received, he was extremely happy because it would be thanks to them that he will be able to change his fate. And last but not least, he now needed to kill someone.
"This must be a joke, right?" Kye said to himself out loud. There was the bubble anyway, so no one could hear him. "What do you mean I need to kill him? How would I even do that?" He asked the system, but it didn't answer him. It didn't give him any more information than that.
So to check if what the system asked him was real, he decided to check something.
Kye was someone who didn't have any abilities, so if the skills he had received were working, then it would mean that the system was also able to kill him.
So since he still had a little less than thirty minutes before afternoon classes begin, he needed to go somewhere quiet. And what better place than the academy rooftop for that?
So he headed there as fast as possible because it would take him quite some time just to head there. And after around ten minutes of running, he was finally there.
*Whooooosshhhhh*
A strong gust of wind came to his face when he opened the rooftop's door. Thankfully, there wasn't anyone there, so he was free to do as he pleased.
Though, before using his Holy ray, he decided to check his stats. The system said that his stats have changed after his evolution and since he hadn't checked them earlier, he did it now.
[Status:
Host's name: Kye Vermillion
Race: Half-angel
LvL: 2
Exp: 0/200
HP: 15/15
Strength: 10
Agility: 10
Stamina: 10
Remaining stats to distribute: 1]
'So I'm indeed a Half-angel now. But what's a Half-angel, to begin with?' Kye thought. 'I need to search for that the next time I'm going to the library.'
Like most people, Kye only heard of angels, not half-angel. He didn't even know what it was, and if it was even a real race. It could also just be something from the system, so it might as well not even exist.
'Then, the EXP seems to have doubled. Does that mean that it will double every time?' He analyzed after seeing his EXP. 'It would be a real pain to levels up later.'
'Anyways, at least my HP had increased. And I mean fortunately because Holy-ray will drop my HP quickly if I use it repeatedly,'
As he thought, his new skill, Holy ray, was costing 1 HP to use. And that means that if he was to use it repeatedly, his HP would just hit 0 sooner or later. And since he didn't know what would happen if he were to have no more HP, he wanted to use it as less as possible. If the consequences were his death, then it was better to be careful as much as possible. And he didn't plan to die that soon. He wanted to change, not die. And if the cost of him being stronger was him dying, then it would be problematic.
'Well, as for my stats, I think I would improve my agility. If I were to fight, and it's bound to happen, it would be perfect if I could see the enemies' movement, and therefore dodge the strike. And I could even throw Holy-ray from a distance. It has a range of five meters, so I'm sure it would be perfect.'
He then put the remaining stats he had to distribute in agility, and he felt a little different. It was as if he was less heavy than a second ago. He didn't know if it was true or if it was only an impression, but it felt real.
"Well, I think I saw everything I needed to see. Let's experiment now," Kye said as he prepared himself.
He walked a little to be right on the middle of the rooftops, and once ready, he put his hand in front of him and made a fist with it.
He then thought of activating his Holy ray, and as if knew how to use it since his childhood, his fist began to glow. Not even a second after, a golden light came out of it and made a little boom sound.
[-1 HP]
"Wow, it's real. I can't believe it," He exclaimed as he did it another time.
[-1 HP]
"That's awesome. I love it," The power he was feeling every time he was activating the Holy ray was something addictive. It was as if his whole body and soul were surrounded by a warm feeling. It was so appeasing that he wanted to do it another time.
But then, reality brought him back to reality.
He suddenly heard someone coming on the rooftops and opening the door.
As if he had done something wrong, he tried to find a hiding spot, but it was too late. Those who came on the rooftop saw him.
"KYE!" One of the boys shouted and ran toward him. "You're here. We searched you everywhere," The boys were none other than Yugo and Ven. They came to the rooftop after searching Kye at every single place they could possibly think of.
"We heard that someone was picking a fight with you," Ven added. "Is everything alright?" Yugo and Ven had heard what happened when they went to Kye's class. Everyone was talking about the fact that a big guy took him somewhere, and since they have 2 levels of difference, it wasn't hard to guess what was going to happen.
So when they heard that, the boys began to run everywhere to find Kye. They didn't want to find him in a hospital bed once again. They did the mistake once, so not a second time.
And when he heard the guys telling him that, Kye touched his face. He had completely forgotten that he had taken quite the beating even though he ran away. Though, when he touched it, he didn't feel anything. Not any bruises or things like that. It was as if he had healed already.
'Ah, yeah that's true. I'm a half-angel now, so the holy power in my body must have regenerated my face. That's quite useful, to be honest.'
"You don't have to worry guys. The moment I saw an opening, I ran away as fast as I could," He said as he activated his angels' eyes. His eyes glowed a little bit in yellow color, but since it was brow daylight, the boys didn't see anything. Like this, he would also be able to see if they were genuinely worried about him or if they were just acting everything. Like this, he would be able to think about what to do next with them.
"Thank god. Please, do that every time or call us. We want to help you." Yugo said.
"And we don't want to see you hurt again or in a hospital bed. It would be strange to hope that for a friend anyway." Ven added
And as if he could feel it, he knew that they were telling the truth. He didn't know if it was real or not, but he was sure at 100% that they were genuinely concerned about him and wanted to protect him.
"Thank you, guys. It means a lot to me." He said with a bright smile. And as if the boys felt an urge in them, they hugged Kye. "Huh? What are you guys doing?"
"I don't know. It was something that I wanted to do. I couldn't help myself."
"Yeah, that's the same for me. You looked too cute, so I wanted to cherish you." Yugo said.
"Thanks, I think?" Kye didn't what to say. It was strange for them to do that. But then something just answered him.
[People around you are attracted to your holy energy.]
'What the f*ck is that? Are you kidding my system? Are you playing with their minds and emotions right now?' He asked but to no avail. The system didn't answer him. 'God, I didn't want those types of energy if it was for that purpose. I don't know if they are themselves or not anymore.
"By the way, Kye," Ven said with a smug smile. "Is it I or you changed from this morning?"
"What do you mean?"
"I don't know. I have the impression that you're a little bit more handsome than this morning," Ven admitted. "And your blue eyes are also a lot more brilliant as if they had recovered their lost color. Yeah, you really became more handsome."
"Thank you again, I guess?"
"Your welcome, your welcome," He smiled and patted Kye's back.
"Anyway, Kye, can you give us your contact info, please?" Yugo said. "Like this, we would be able to communicate, and you would be able to tell us if something is happening to you.
"Sure." He nodded and then gave it. It wouldn't hurt him to do that, and it was also more beneficial for him since he could indeed ask them for help if he was in dire situations. Not that he would now since he had new powers. At least, it was what he thought.
"Well, I think it's time to go back to classes." Kye finally said. He didn't get to experiment as much as he wanted, but it would do for now.
Though, he had completely forgotten why he had come to the rooftop in the first place.
His killing quest countdown was still going down.
