Chereads / The Marionette’s Puppeteer / Chapter 8 - Chapter 7: I obtained an ultimate skill: Angel of Peace, (Chamuel)

Chapter 8 - Chapter 7: I obtained an ultimate skill: Angel of Peace, (Chamuel)

A nasty disgusting thing was happening inside of me. My puppets, who I didn't know existed such as these mushroom creatures who had limbs and wolves too.

Because of my anger, in the middle of the crisis of struggle, a monitor screen appeared in front of me. It was when the two barbarians decided to run and leave, then before it happened, I received a new skill.

「 New Skill Acquired:

Distinctive Passive Skill: Puppeteer's Anger 」

That skill unknowingly moved my mody and I was surprised when I suddenly teleported closer to the two barbarians.

It was because of the new skill that I acquired and speaking of which, if the name of the skill has the word 'Puppet' or 'Puppeteer' it will be a Distinctive skill. What is Distinctive anyway?

Then, I became merciless because I couldn't control my anger.

As I pondered my thoughts, I forgot that the wolves have been devouring the barbarians that failed to escape.

'A-am I a k-killer n-now?'

Don't tell me I'll get arrested? If that happens, I'll just say that this wolf is the one who killed them, not me.

I'm such a loser anyways, "How should I hide their bodies?" 

The two barbarians look very disgusting. They were covered in blood, their body was also covered with bitrs and even some missing body parts.

In broad daylight, I killed someone, and they're two at that.

....Slime? I think slime can absorb things? Maybe that slime puppet of mine can do that?

I raised my hand and summoned the slime, as usual, it slowly appeared and rose from the ground, then my Distinctive Passive Skill: Perfect Puppet Control also got activated.

When it did, I waved my hand in a fast way and all the wolves and mushrooms who crowded the dead bodies got away and moved as I ordered.

The slime jumped at the scene and it went perfectly as planned. The slime absorbed the two bodies without leaving a trace.

Then, I unsummoned the slime again. 

After that, I was left with a wooden carriage with the horse. The horse didn't seem to be scared by my puppets.

It was weird because the mushroom who had limbs kept following me and clinging to my feet.

"W-what's up with you, you look scary." I said then with my thread, I moved that creature away.

The wolves who also had mouths covered with blood were also coming nearer to me.

'Seriously, what's up with them? Is this because they're my puppet?' I can't help but to be suspicious then I cut my thread with them and also unsummoned them at once.

They disappeared in an instance then,

Ding!

Again?

「 New Skill Acquired:

Skill: False Strength, (Stout) 」

Huh? False... A fake one? How can this skill be useful? 

"Forget it, I need to go to a certain place with people so that I can get to know this world."

I went inside the carriage, or should I say wagon and found two big bags. I opened the first one and it was filled with gold coins. My eyes sparked looking at it.

'As expected, those people I killed were criminals, I think I won't feel guilty now.'

The second bag however was only filled with two scrolls and an egg.

A creepy egg, the size of 4 fist and it looks like it's hatchable. 

I don't even know eggs. I first thought of it as a meal for tonight's dinner but it looks suspicious so I put it aside.

Next, I opened the two scrolls and I saw a text and letters that I cannot understand. Later, the context inside the scroll disappeared.

Ding!

Again!? This noise shocked me almost every time! Where's the mute here?

As I struggled, a screen appeared.

「 New Skill Obtained: 

Skill: Sprint.

Ultimate Passive Skill: Angel of Peace, (Chamuel) 」

What...!?

As I looked at the bottom of the screen, did I just acquire an ultimate skill...? 

No, I didn't acquire it, it was obtained. Perhaps the scroll was the thing where I obtained it?

That makes sense. The inside of the scroll disappeared after all ans....

Why am I glowing!!?

I looked at my hand and it was radiating with light. What the heck? I look like a walking light bulb.

Is this the effect of my Ultimate Passive Skill: Angel of Peace, (Chamuel)??

And besides, this skill is a passive one! I don't know how to deactivate it. Also, this one has an aura. 

With the help of Puppeteer's eye, it's called 'Aura of Peace' an aura that makes everyone who sees me or in my circle feel comforted with a continuous healing regeneration.

I remembered how I obtained the Distinctive Passive Skill: Death Puppeteer's Aura and how I managed to conceal that aura.

That's right, I knew how to hide it.

With my Barrier Shield, I can conceal it and hide this glowing effect.

I closed my eyes, breathed out a deep sight, concentrated my thoughts and mind then the Aura of Death Puppeteer and Peace seems to be hiding within my barrier.

I just need to be careful not to break the barrier.

The two auras seem to be mixing and not fighting. That's good. The glowing effect also disappeared and I somehow know how to make it appear again.

I threw the empty scroll then stepped out the wagon to see the horse and tame it with my Distinctive Passive Skill: Puppet Control when suddenly— the horse who was black back then was now colored in white with wings.

The leash was broken but the horse didn't fleed. It looks like it was waiting for me.

"What in the world? Why does this horse suddenly have wings?"

I was even more surprised when my Eye of Puppeteer identified the creature.

「 Species: Divine Creature

Name: Pegasus 」

I was ultimately shocked when I saw that this creature in front of me was a pegasus and something stuck inside my mind— Could it be because of the aura of the Ultimate Skill: Angel of Peace, (Chamuel)?

That could be the case. The horse got influenced by my aura and it turned him into a Pegasus.

Looking at the Pegasus, I activated my Perfect Puppet Control to the creature and let my Iron Thread attached to the Pegasus.

The Pegasus didn't resist and it feels like he was willing to be controlled by me.

「 Perfect Puppet Control attached to the species 'Pegasus'.

The puppeteer can now summon or call the being at any time. 」

I can perfectly control the pegasus as I pleased. I wanted to ride it and fly to the sky but it looked very frightening and scary.

What If the pegasus dropped me in the sky and I fell?— sounds very scary right?

And because the pegasus is a divine being, it will probably grab some attention so I unsummoned it.

"Now, where to go next?" I mumbled as I left the wagon then proceeded to continue my path to find some nearby village or town. I also activated my skill: Sprint.
