We began our journey to Kalthar.
"Hey sister how many days will it take for us to reach Kalthar?" I asked.
"Maybe 5 to 6 days.. I am not sure though"
We took a creature that was almost like the mixture of horse and elephant. In here they call it "Gloomshad". It had the head of an elephant and body of a horse and legs were it was a mixture of both elephant and horse.
We camped at night were ever it feels right or we would stay at an inn then 2 days passed.
I was practicing while my sister was sleeping in the inn. A few moments later I was returning to the inn and I felt that some people are following me.
I went to the back of the inn they surrounded me.
"Hey kiddo lift your arms up and come silently" said the thug in front.
"We will just return you if you come with us quietly" said the thug who was standing back.
I checked the window if Yuri is awake or not. She was not there.
"Thank goodness she is not there" I mumbled.
"You guys I give you a warning so just run away if you care for your life" I said.
"Hey watch you mouth" said the thug in my front.
There were only two of them.
I used the "Identify" skill. Oh my I was shocked there skill was less than Yuri's.
The thug in front came to catch me.
I used "Time freeze" and froze there time. Then I used "Telekinesis" and shook them like hell. Then I removed the "Time freeze" skill they puked.
"what the hell is your problem kid." They shouted.
"Come on I gave you a fair warning, although you never listened"
"NOW SCRAM YOU PIECE OF GARBAGE'S"
They ran away like they saw a ghost or even worse.
"Ding"
"Congratulation for the host on completing the hidden quest 'Dread Weaving'"
"You will now receive the skill 'Dread Weaving' as a reward"
I got the skill "Dread Weaving" It says I can put anyone in fear who's level is less than mine.
"Good now that's done let's go to sleee.....p"
Oh shit did Yuri was watching this the whole time. No that can't be it. I need to confirm weather she found out or not.
"Hey sis what are you doing here? I came for a walk."
"Hey Kazuma what was all that skill are about you need to explain everything to me"
She dragged me to the inn and interrogated me. I told about everything about the addon skill except the system.
"Oh no no no no no no no no no" she mumbled fastly.
She held me shoulders.
"Hey Kazu th-this thing about the 'addon' don't even breath about it to anyone OK." she asked nervously.
"Ok sis I would never tell about this to anyone"
"Hey you don't have light magic"
"No I didn't get any info about it"
"as I thought. The light magic is the most rare if someone has it then they are compared to the world treasure and of course you can't move around freely you will be guarded every second even in the bathroom"
"Oh I get it. it's that bad" I shivered.
Having someone watch me bathe and all that.... Thinking about it is making my stomach sick.
"Hey sis let's stay here for few days I have some stuff to do while we are here"
"Ok but don't get into any problem"
"Kk"
I am planning on staying here for 4 days. This is the nearest city for the border of Kalthar. Which means after that area there will be a lot of other races like elves and dwarfs. I need to gather information about them.
I went to the nearest library to learn more about them.
Elves are long eared species and has only one gender which is female. I don't how they maintain there population and all.
Next is Dwarfs they are strong, short and awesome at making weapons.
Next Sylvari they are also mostly female and can control the nature as they will.
The next one is the most interesting one of all. They are made up of Aether and they can turn anything into Aether to use it for fighting they are Aetherians.
These are all the information I found on the research I made.
And I learned one new skill which is "Invisibility" the skill means just what it spells. I can turn me invisible, but it can work only if my opponent is 10 levels above and it work on lower level peoples too.
Wait a minute. Ohh I forgot to tell how the level in this world works.
It's too simple Just add all your stats. Which are total HP, total MP and total number of skills.
My current HP is not shown because I did not get any hit by any enemies. I injured myself while testing the 'heal' skill. So, It wouldn't work.
I need to get hit by some one. Ok that aside.
My MP is 680. I had 21 skills. let me just assume that my HP is 680 too.
So my level is 1381. Every one has their level in double digit and only a few have triple digit.
I have 4 digit. This is amazing. Which also means I am the strongest in this world.
Ok time to go back I guess Yuri is at the market. Let's take a shortcut.
"Please don't touch me, You will die" a little girl screaming.
"What is happening I have to check." I mumbled.
A guy is trying to catch a girl. Let me check his stats using "Identify". He is just level 12. Let's check the girls using "Identify". Wow I never thought she would be this strong she is level 107. She is the first triple digit I have ever seen in this world.
She had one aqua blue eye and the other blood red, like me, but her blue eye was located in her left eye, and the red eye was located in her right eye.
I watched if he was hurting her or not.
Then he touched her and started saying "Don't cry" before he finished his sentence he turned to dust.
I checked her stats again using "Identify" and it had a new section which I hadn't noticed I checked it and it said "The target has a curse".
"Tell me the details of the curse" I asked the system.
"This curse, called 'UnTouchable,' it's a strong curse by gods and will be passed down through generations by the cursed ones." said the system.
i went near her and said "Are you okay"
"Don't touch me I am okay"
"I am aware of that"
"Do you want something?" she asked
"No, if you want I can try to cure your curse"
"No, that's Impossible. Only the gods know how to cure this curse"
"Wait a minute" I said.
I turned back.
"Hey system do you know how to cure her"
"The cure to this curse is ---------- "
The cure was blurred guess this is blurred by the gods. Aww I even said I would cure it.
"Hey. What is you name?"
"I-Its Vista"
"I will try to cure you so can you join my journey to the academy. I have a lot of skills I can put a barrier around you so you can be a bit free. What do you think. I am not forcing you so you have the right to refuse"
Oh no what the hell am I saying. That's it I ruined my reputation.
She stared at me for almost 10 second or so then she said "Ok if you can cure me please I will do whatever I can".
I can't join her to the academy. I blabbered it. Ok then
"You can be my friend but I can't join you in the academy. You can also work for me. I will actually pay you too"
This should be the best response I can come up with. And for the barrier magic I can copy it from Yuri.
"Ok" she replied.
She was almost the same age as me.
"Hey Vista. How old are you?"
"I am 7 year old, sir"
"call me Kazuma. Don't call me sir"
Looks like she is traumatized by watching peoples die. And she is a bit younger than me I am 8.
"Umm. Kazuma why didn't put any barrier on me yet"
"I don't have the skill"
"Oh. What it's dangerous. If you don't have the skill then why did you tell me"
I explained everything about the "addon" except the system.
"Wow you are amazing Kazuma"
We went to inn and I left her there and used "teleport" skill and "Invisibility" skill to reach with Yuri and Teleport near her and I went to a hidden place and turned of "Invisibility" skill.
Then I said everything about Vista and took her back.
I added the "Barrier" skill from Yuri.
Then kept a constant barrier around her.
It was just 1 cm away from her skin and it also moves according to her position.
Few day I spent time with her and we started our journey.
I asked Vista about her past.
They are made not born they are made. Their body will turn into a baby and the souls will be removed and a new soul will be place with basic knowledge. Though she didn't know why they were cursed. (Note: The author knows.)
And the number of people's she touch they die and their power will be transferred to her.
I have my doubts as well. What will happen if I touch her. No way I am going to try it. (Note: The author knows what will happen.)
We reached the border of Kalthar. They were checking the peoples IDs. The security was amazing the guards had such muscular body. I guess I can try for a fit body not too muscular and too skinny.
Yuri was in the adventurers guild so she showed her ID and the guard let us in.
One can join the adventurers guild once they reach 15. On earth age he/she can be 15.12 years old.
We were going straight to the house she lives, So she can unload her things and we went for a meal. Then we were headed back.
While we were heading back we heard a loud blast and we saw a huge smoke.
I used "Manipulate Earth" to make a mask and create a clone of my self and used "Flight" and went there.
There were a group of bandits. They used their fire magic recklessly.I went near the location.
"Hey cut it out or you are dead meat"
I forgot that I had "Dread Weaving".
"hey look at that kid over there putting on some mask and using his only skill. Do you thing you are some kind of hero" the bandit said.
"Don't complain that I didn't give you any warning"
I used the skill "Tempest" and threw them in the air and tied them up with "Manipulate Earth" skill and teleported back to the carriage inside the clone and broke the outer shell of the clone and came out.
Then we returned home and ate our dinner and went to sleep. I couldn't sleep because Yuri sent a letter to the academy which said
"Hello I am Yuri a student at the Royal Academy of Mystical Arts. I am returning from the holidays and I am bringing my brother Kazuma with me. He is very talented. He can use two spells simultaneously. I request a scholarship for him."
This was the summary of the letter.
I have to demonstrate two skill there.
That's it I can use that skill. It's not overkill but powerful. That's it I am using that spell tomorrow.
