"Shit! I can't walk across this bridge without falling, it can't handle both of our weight." Vier opened up his display [Bridge Between Aden Town and Oase Hafen: 738/10000 HP]
The weather had started turning worst, a large snow storm was heading their way and with nearly no protection, they wouldn't be able to last. They had to rush towards the next city and run across the bridge.
"Okay, okay. Y'know what? Fuck it, FUCK IT!" Vier charged forward, his feet stomping on the brittle wooden planks that went across the bridge. Each step he took, he could feel the bridge reverberate and shake, the rope that held the bridge up was made of cheap material. As he took his second step, he glanced over to the edge of the bridge.
"Shit." The rope had completely snapped, not even a single thread keeping the two ends together. "This is it, huh, this is how I die. I planned for a more flashy death, like dying inside of a dungeon heroically after sacrificing myself to let all of my teammates escape. This isn't so bad I guess, I tried to help my mom, can't say I'm the worst son ever." The entire bridge collapsed, and the metal rods that hung onto dear life on each end of the cliff came loose, falling into the ravine alongside the bridge and Vier and his mom.
-----Scene 2-----
[Skill: Plot Armor]
"HA!" Vier found himself alive and in one piece. However, he wasn't inside the bottomless ravine, instead, he sat on a chair, in front of him was a table and an empty throne behind the table, "What the hell?" It was the same exact spot he had found himself when he reached level 10 and earned his mysterious ability. This time, the man in front of him was gone, it was just him.
'Do You Wish To Activate [Skill: Plot Armor]' The menu displayed in front of him 'Cost [1 ABS Token]'
"What the hell is an ABS token?" Vier pressed the large green [Yes] button.
'[Skill: Plot Armor Activated] Current ABS Token Balance: 0.'
The blue screen went red. Vier's vision went blurry.
-----Scene 3-----
Vier gasped for air. He awoke on the same cliff where he was, now the entire cliff was filled with snow. Vier got up, his mom was still knocked out, on the floor.
[New Skill!]
Vier opened up his skills menu.
'Ability: Editor. Rarity: Mythical'
"I got a mythical? Why didn't I know?" Vier scrolled down.
[Skill 1: Plot Armor]
[Skill 2: Deathly Aura]
[Skill 3: ???]
The snow had now started getting violent, and Vier's clothes were being thrown in different directions from the violent winds. "What the hell is [Deathly Aura]"
Vier pressed on [Deathly Aura] and a new screen appeared.
'[Skill: Deathly Aura] Description: Allows the user to move at breakneck speed. Any weapon the user wields will automatically reach [GOD] tier mastery. Do you wish to proceed?'
"What? No, this has to be a mistake. My ability isn't this!" Vier was in a shock for words, he'd never heard of an ability like this. It was almost as if he was cheating. Vier pressed the big green [Yes] button.
Vier's eyes turned blue, his shirt ripped apart and his muscles grew tenfold. His calves burst out of his jeans, ripping them into shreds. His hair grew out and turned a dark black colour. Vier didn't know what was happening, it was as if he was spectating someone else using his own body. In a mere fraction of a second, he picked up his mom and placed both of his feet deep into the snow, kicking up a snowstorm around him. "WOAAAAAA-" Vier's body lunged over the ravine, completely over the bridge. Vier had no control of his body now, he was instead watching someone else use his body.
'Mana: 0. [Deathly Aura] Skill Deactivated.'
Vier was now on the other side of the ravine, away from the snow storm and now on the bright, green side of Oase Hafen. "What... the... fuck WAS THAT! WOOOO!" Vier was ecstatic, he just witnessed something unimaginary. For once in his life, he was actually strong. He'd always been bullied as a kid, he was always at the bottom. But just then, he got a taste of what it means to be strong.
"You'll be alright mom, I'll get you there as fast as possible." Vier had a smile on his face, a smile he had never made before.
-----Scene 4-----
"We found a symbiote inside her abdomen. However, she is okay and will make a speedy recovery as long as there aren't any complications." A doctor told Vier as he sat inside the waiting room. "By the way, WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED TO YOU?" the doctor was shocked.
"Oh, me? I'm fine, really." Vier waved his hand politely to signify nothing was wrong.
"When you entered the hospital, I realised something. Your clothes are torn and your jeans too, yet you have a small physique." The doctor inspected Vier.
"Oh." Vier looked down and noticed that his ripped shredded body was now gone, back to his flimsy frail little body, "OH!" Vier clutched himself.
"Do you want clothes?" The doctor snickered.
"Yeah, that would be nice," Vier said awkwardly.
-----Scene 5-----
"You saw that too right?" A woman sat inside a small hut on the edge of the cliff where Vier was. "He just got ripped immediately and jumped over 300 metres in a millisecond." She had a sniper rifle in her hands. "By what I saw, that was Vier Klee from Aden Town, he just got his ability today and was entered into the venator database. He looked like he was carrying a female figure within his arms as he ran." The woman had a screen open with Vier Klee's details.
'Name: Vier Klee. Age: 20. Born: Aden Town.'
A man spoke over the phone with the woman, "It's no mistaking it I guess, Unface has finally chosen his user."
