This happened the night we came back from the sealed space 2 days had passed since the repairs on Aries's workshop were about to be finished when the sun finally shined. I'm just doing some normal Author things kinda like night patrolling and brooding in the shadows like im some cape crusader that had his parents killed in the alleyway only to meet some troublemakers the ones that ruined my book the Transmigraters, before that I've met someone that will give me a skill

Outside the mansion at 7:12 pm, Morris was dressing up for the occasion that happens every night, patrolling every corner of the district looking for any signs of his readers while he was accompanied by his team
"This cold and rainy night reminds me of the time when my parents died in the alleyway, they were robbed of their money and got their lives stolen never to be returned even to this very day~"
"Morris, what gives, are you pretending to be the Dark Knight again?"
"I'm not pretending this is my Alter ego's backstory my name is Morrito Chrysalis an orphan that became an assassin overnight and I only have one goal and that is to find the man that murdered my parents,"
[I can't understand why you're like this when nothing is transpiring in your daily life]
"I forgot about that, Alter ego isn't that kind of like a defensive passive on our role?"
"Exactly even if our disguises have been destroyed in the process of someone finding out that Gaia Taneric is a spy, my face will shift into the Alter ego I made Morrito Chrysalis. It's a win-win role our identities are safe and we can't get our faces leaked in the process of our disguises falling off,"
[I thought this role was sketchy before but now that we've unlocked most of the passive and exclusive skills I wonder if this was a gold mine filled with privileges]
"We're finished putting on our disguise, let's get back to our patrol we only have a few leads, but from the looks of it they're making a move recently I've heard that some people are disappearing again,"
'They can't even learn their lesson even though I posted on the player server all of the corpses of their comrades showing their faces and even their status screen. guess you can't scare off an arrogant pest once they got their heads inflated because they read my book, in the meantime, I need to check out this deities proposal,'
"I'll catch up with the rest of you, I still have some stuff that I need to take care of," Jin disappeared into the shadows after he heard his answer
[System: The Wandering Swordsman wishes to know if the player is interested in a skill, a deity has reached out to personally give you a skill would you like to connect with the deity?]
[I wonder how powerful is this deity, I know that we broadcasted that fight into the Murim dimension but out of all the deities you could choose to communicate why him?]
"Connect me to The Wandering Swordsman, I want to hear what his reasons to give me a skill without any requirement,"
[System: Connecting to The Wandering Swordsman, you're now being connected to the deity in the Murim server]
[I'm talking to you don't ignore me!!!]
"I'd like to see what he's offering out of everyone that gave me their proposal he's the only one I could pick,"
'I'm not knowledgable about their history and achievements, most of the deities I mentioned were from myths which gave me a lot of people reading my book. there are some deities that I randomly made for example Hugo's deity, even Sage is a part of that group. but im certain of one thing, names the deity's names reflect their biggest achievement in life, most of the ones that wished to give me a skill were split into three categories,'
'The Demonic group, The Nameless masters, and lastly The Heavenly faction. the Demonic and Heavenly factions are opposing each other's side if I get myself related to them I might become a target of a Heavenly contracted player or a Demonic one. which only leaves me with the Nameless masters, they are players from the Murim world that seeks to perfect one thing in their life while they leave everything they once had, be it their loved ones, wealth, responsibilities, or even their identity only for the sake to travel across the world learning different things, to perfect their sacred arts,'
[Sytstem: Connection completed, youre now temporarily connected with The Wandering Swordsman]
[I guess youre interested in my proposal]|
"I am might I ask why you want to give me a skill without even giving me a condition, I suggest that we don't further discuss this matter if you want to try and make me cancel my current contract,"
[Not at all, I just have a good feeling that it was fate that I saw your broadcasting, I shall give you an incomplete skill]|
"If it's incomplete then why do you even want to give it to me in the first place!!?" Morris showed a little bit of his true side to the deity which is a disrespectful person toward a God
[I know that most people would like to get their hands on a powerful skill but this incomplete skill contains martial arts and the art of weaponry. the only problem is that when I was about to finish the last part, well you know what happened next I died next thing I found out is that I forgot the last requirement. someone that was able to achieve Concurrent flow at a young age and as a newbie will surely pose no threat to you]|
[System: The Wandering Swordsman wants to give you the skill Radiant footwork, would you like to accept?]
[Dont even try and swear I told you it was incomplete, you must learn the entirety of the skill before it unlocks the whole thing. that's the only thing I could say best wishes to you this era's prodigy may your future be filled with fewer hardships]|
[System: your connection to The Wandering Swordsman has been cut off]
'Well, that was a strange occurrence I never saw a deity that would give a skill without anything in return, I need to catch up with the others before they start nagging me again,'
[System: you've accepted the skill Radiant footwork]
