After walking for a while, I found out that The Kingdom called Hanaroshi, is popular for making Monsters and different species coexist (including humanity ofc). I learned it by going to a village called Royushi, which is a village controlled by The Kingdom Hanaroshi.
The weather is sunny, critters and insects are singing, the birds chirping. But, I learned that everything can't be trusted even plants, i learned that the hard way.
I sigh, as I see a dragon destroying a village. I go to the top of a hill which seems to the nest of the dragon. I see it's eggs but I know to not mess with it's eggs, I started searching for chests, as most games/animes when there's a dragon's nest, there will be treasure or at least a powerup. But the only I find are bones of animals or humans.
Suddenly the dragon shoots fire using it's mouth, incinerating me instantly. I wake up, in the dragon's nest still, sweating profusely.
Yakame: [Shit! I need to escape!]
As I start running, the dragon suddenly appears and starts shooting fire using it's mouth.
As I dodge it's attacks, I start to remember something.
Yakame: [But... To be honest, this is the time to experiment what did I gain from swallowing the orb from Leviathan.]
I try figuring it out by punching fire. And I instantly regretted it as I got burned to death.
Yakame: [Why's my luck's this bad?!]
I think as I scream in pain and die.
As I woke in the same location, I instantly started running away from Drgaon's nest. Desperately running like a pitiful moron.
I really want to know what's my ability, or something to know how activate it. But that doesn't change the fact that i'm hunted by The dragon.
Ad I continue to run, the dragon attacks me with his fire breath. But before it could hit me, someone protected me.
He looks at me. He has white hair and yellow golden eyes, he seems to be lean and muscular also.
???: "You good?"
Yakame: "U-uh, yeah!"
It seems I can understand the people's language. I nodded, as he chuckles.
???: "The name's Furukawa. Furukawa Michio"
Yakame: "U-um, i'm Yakame. Yakame Hiroyuki."
I said as the dragon suddenly shoots fire at us.
Yakame: "Behind you!"
He instantly blocks the attack only using his arms, the fire instantly got extinguish by his arms.
Furukawa: "My ability allows me to manipulate Causality."
I look at him with excited eyes. It seems that we're gonna be the best of friends, after all it looks like I'm able to express emotions when around him.
Yakame: "Awesome!"
I said as he smiles. He snaps his fingers, making the Dragon into fiction, technically erasing it.
I look at him, it was like meeting a celebrity.
Yakame: "How do you do that!"
I said, questioning him. He chuckles as a he starts answering me.
Furukawa: "It's just my 'born-skill'."
I tilted my head with a confused expression.
Yakame: "What's a born-skill?"
Furukawa: "A born-skill, is an exclusive skill that your born with. It can only be gain when your apart of a powerful bloodline. I'm from the Michio Family, a family that is famous for able to control concepts."
Yakame: "But, what if you gain a skill by eating an orb?"
Furukawa: "Well, it's called 'copied-skill', since orbs are from monsters, you gain the monster's ability when you eat an orb. The only way to activate it is to inflict pain to yourself, it can like a sprain, a minor injury, or even cutting your hand off, but when others hurt or help you to activate your ability, it won't work."
I look a bit surprised, but normally people will be a little scared as you can't imagine breaking your fingers or scratching yourself to activate your skill.
I immediately break one of my fingers, it hurts a little but it doesn't matter.
Furukawa seems surprised by my sudden move.
I started to glow a bit, before I started feeling I'm on top of the world, no I feel like i'm in the center of the universe.
Yakame: "This, feels..."
Furukawa chuckles.
Furukawa: "Amazing right?"
I nodded with a calm expression. I seem to be more calmer now.
Yakame: "So what's my ability?"
Furukawa: "Well, it seems like it's 'Physical Enhancement'."
I nodded, it's obvious what that means.
Yakame: "So it enhances my strength, endurance, speed, etc?"
Furukawa: "Yep!"
I chuckle as he said that.
Furukawa: "By the way, where are you heading at?"
Yakame: "The Kingdom Hanaroshi, you?"
Furukawa: "Me too!"
We laughed happily and decided to travel together.
