Chereads / My Skill Creation System / Chapter 16 - Crescent Moon Dimension

Chapter 16 - Crescent Moon Dimension

Nathan was thrown out of thin air. His body rolled on a layer of dry, cracked earth that was dark in color.

He immediately raised his body and tried to recognize where he was this time.

"Ugh… Why does the air in this place feel heavier?"

At night, the sky in that place was very dark. There were streaks of red coming from volcanoes on one side, and the arid expanse of land filled his sight in every direction.

Nathan sat up, still feeling dizzy because his body was suddenly thrown into a solid platform. He turned his head to one side when he noticed someone running toward him.

"Luna?"

Luna, the AI ​​girl who was previously only as small as a papaya fruit, was treading the ground with a normal human body size.

"Master Nathan, I have a physical body here."

Nathan just stayed there and waited for her to let him go. He noticed the cheerful expression on Luna's face, which was now more clearly visible in his new form.

"Actually, My appearance was chosen based on your preferences... See, Hmmm," Luna looked up, "Hmmm, from what you always watched, there were a lot of lolis from anime that you always watched."

Nathan looked surprised. "Every anime these days has lolis on it, you know?," he said, scratching the back of his head. "There weren't any other options."

Luna smiled broadly. "Nature's Breath in this pocket dimension is at tier 4, just like in the World of Yunatea."

"Huh? Is that true?" Nathan immediately took a deep breath, then exhaled again and again.

Nature's Breath is a source of energy that turns ordinary humans into superhumans. The awakening process is a process where there is a change in a person's heart so that they can accommodate the energy, which is named Nature's Breath or often abbreviated as The Breath.

"Would I instantly level up if I sucked in as much air as possible in this place?"

Nathan stood up, still sucking in the air and exhaling it repeatedly. He combed the place with his gaze.

"What a really strange place."

The place looked like abandoned land. The volcano spitting lava on one side seemed to make the place even more mystical.

"How big is this place? And is there anyone other than me here?"

"This place is the pocket dimension contained in the pendant that you are wearing. Of course, this place is exclusively accessible using that pendant and the people you allowed."

Nathan nodded. 

He could see pillars of red and green light in various places. There were only a few pillars of green light, whereas more pillars of light were red.

"Where do the pillars of light come from, Luna?"

"Artifacts… Let's check those things, Master Nathan."

Luna was still running around with her hands raised up. The girl then ran towards a cave near where they were standing. From the cave, one could also see small pillars of light penetrating the cave's top and pierce the sky.

"Artifacts??? I want artifacts!!!"

Nathan's eyes and mouth opened wide at Luna's words. Without realizing it, he immediately ran wildly, following where the girl was running.

Luna stopped at the cave entrance, where golden streaks of light could be seen.

Nathan stopped right behind Luna and immediately narrowed his eyes in disbelief as he made a relatively accurate guess as to what was causing the golden streaks of light.

He quickly made his way into the mouth of the cave and entered the glowing golden light, where his jaw promptly dropped in shock. 

The golden light was emanating from- 

A pile, no, a sea of ​​gold coins!!!

"Gold?" Nathan fell silent, still in shock from what he saw.

He couldn't contain his enthusiasm and walked slowly to the pile of gold and threw himself there. "How can there be so much gold here? Does this mean I can have it all?"

It looked pretty spacious inside of the cave. In every corner, piles of gold coins could be seen; large boxes with luxurious decorations and several weapons scattered on one side could also be found.

"Gold… I can use all this gold to own it, right?"

The minutes passed quickly, and Nathan ended up lying down with gold coins piled up over his body, exposing only his delighted face.

"I'll take all this gold out…." Nathan slowly closed his eyes. He was really enjoying himself being buried by the pile of gold.

"Master Nathan, you are so funny. Are you aware that you are being controlled by greed?"

"Greed?" Nathan opened his eyes, then he sat back down and chuckled at Luna. "I think even without Greed everyone will be lulled to see this much gold Luna."

Nathan glimpsed transparent writing in the corner of his eye.

"A timer?? Why did I just realize this?!"

"What will happen after this countdown timer is up?" He pointed to the digital writing in front of him.

"You will be forced out." Luna replied. "But, you don't need to worry. Because you can still enter this place again as soon as the cooldown is over."

"How long do I have to wait?"

"Hmmm." Luna thought for a moment. "One week. You can come back to this place after one week."

Nathan looked at Luna thoughtfully. "One week?"

Nathan stood up and paused in front of the chest. With a tug, he tried to open it, but the lid seemed to shift. Suddenly, he could feel something stirring inside!

"Huh?" Nathan was silent, then opened the chest cover.

He found a red cloak folded on top of a pile of gold coins.

"What is this?"

Nathan grabbed the cloak.

The layer of cloth he was holding felt like it was made using the highest quality material. It was a red cloak with a dark black interior.

[Cloak of Wisdom]

[locked]

Nathan exclaimed in awe, "Wow, this is amazing! This item is so useful for me, especially with my two blessings. Plus, there are still two abilities that are locked. I really want to unlock them all." He then turned to Luna and asked, "Do you know how to unlock the abilities of this artifact, Luna? Would my System be of any help?"

"This artifact will unlock the power it possesses if it thinks the time has come."

Nathan again touched the layer of the cloak. He liked it very much.

Nathan attached the cloak to his shoulder and put it on. The cloak made him look like a wizard from his favorite superhero movie.

"Can I call myself Dr. Nathan now?" He smiled. "I hope the next ability of this artifact can allow me to fly in the air."

Nathan was silent for a moment. "But wait, why don't I just make a skill to float in the air myself?" He nodded in approval at his own brainwave and determined in his heart to do exactly that.

"However, I will bring this artifact too. I like it."

Nathan glanced at Luna and smiled. "I need a weapon."

Nathan ran and tried to find something else he could use in that place. He needed weapons to fight and hoped to find anything he could use without having to bother buying them outside.

Nathan found some swords and a spear. But most of these objects are only made of gold, with no special effects. In fact, they were more like royal treasures than weapons.

After some time searching, he found one thing that seemed to fit exactly what he was looking for.

It was a sword with a pitch-black hilt and a shiny black blade reflecting golden light from its surroundings.
