Chapter 8: C08 Reaching Falmuth
Previously
I couldn't waste any more time here.
I have to go fast to the Falmuth Kingdom.
Because...
The Otherworlders are there.
I have to make them work under me if they have the same beliefs like me.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Continuation
Few days later |
Finally. Finally. I am getting near Falmuth. I can see the gates from here. Just a few minutes of walk.
<The Quest 'Leaving Behind Blumund has been completed.>
<The Rewards are now being given...>
<You have gained the skill Pain Conversion.>
<The Mask of Concealing (Artifact) has been sent to your Inventory as a reward.>
<You have learned One Swing One Head Sword Art.>
As this message came, I felt a slight headache which soon gone away as it had came.
<+50 points has been added to all stats.>
I felt my brain working a lot more faster after this.
First, let's check the mask. Inventory.
The inventory opened in front of me and I looked only at the mask, ignoring the other things.
[ Name: Mask Of Concealing ]
[ Description: A mask made specifically for concealment. It has two modes in it. One, the normal mode, the mask transforms into a normal looking mask that only hides your mouth. It doesn't hide anything. Second, the special mode, the mask will look like a toxic gas mask which makes you look cool. It hides your actual stats and skill. It also shows any person having appraisal skill see everything fabricated as per the user wants. If a person extremely weaker than the user sees the user's face and looks anywhere else sven for a second, he will forget about the user to a certain extent.
Special Effect: ● It has two modes as explained in the description.
So, it works something like this.
I read the whole thing and understood how it works.
I equipped the mask and holded it on my hands and then put it on my face.

The mask was red and black in color. It fitted my face perfectly and my black hair matched the colors of the mask.
The mask was currently in its special mode. So, I should be able to enter the gates without any problems.
Then, I started walking towards the gates. I was far away from the gates but could see it here.
Ah. Jack? Can you explain to me about some of the rewards or other things of the system till we reach the gates.
<Yes.>
Jack started explaining.
Crew System enables you to make a crew of five including yourself. As soon as you add the first member of the crew, you will start to get quest rewards that will help you to increase the overall power of the crewmates.
One Swing One Head Sword Art is a sword art where the user grips the handle of the sword while it is still in the scabbard. The user then pulls the sword out of the scabbard to swing the sword at a superfast level which even the gods can't catch up. The only restriction it possess is that you need to level it up to make the sword art to reach that level.
Weapon Upgrade Card- As it sounds, it allows you to upgrade your weapon for example the katana or R1897 which you had got.
Infinite Regeneration- It grants the user incredible regeneration properties far superior to its previous stage, Ultraspeed Regeneration. It can regrow lost limbs at an incredible speed and also heals attacks dealt with Spiritons.
Pain Conversion- It converts the pain received to any form of feelings like anger, sadness, happiness, pleasure, emptiness etc. and then sends it back to the user for him to experience it. It also allows you to convert the pain to any feeling and send it to the target.
Skill Upgrade Card- It is an one-time use card which allows you to upgrade specific skills by one.
Universal Perception- The user can perceive light, smell, sound and heat at a very high extent. This skill makes the user like a walking radar, detecting it's enemies from very far away.
After the explanation, the only thing that was the most interesting from all of this was the crew System. I had got it a few days ago when I was in Blumund but I never asked about. Having this feature makes my job easier.
I will recruit the otherworlders to my crew and then I will be a step closer to my future plan.
But, before that let me check my status once more.

Hm... Looks like my stats is going to reach 500 soon, I'm guessing... in a few days maybe.
By killing the three adventurers, I got 70 points on my strength stat. It was less if we see that they were three people but their rank was too low.
"Hey get inside the line. Don't break it." A person coldly said from my left.
I looked at him and noticed that he was standing in a line between many people. Lost in my thoughts, I had reached the gates of the Falmuth Kingdom and subconsciously broke the line.
"Sorry." I said apologizing and then walked at the back of the line.
I shouldn't get lost in my thoughts that much. Jack, why did you not wake me up from my thoughts when I had reached the gates and not told me to join the line?
<I could have told you but I thought that you may have wanted to kill those people standing in your way. So, I didn't stop you.>
Really? What do you think I am? Geez. I work with caution and think of every possibility that could happen.
<....>
Anyways, the murmuring of people is quite nice to the ears which is coming from the other side of the gate.
I didn't notice the sound of people talking, carts moving and shopkeepers selling their good before because I was lost in my thoughts.
Now that I take a close ear to this, I think that the Falmuth Kingdom is quite a peaceful place.
I thought as the wind blowed and made my hair move with the wind as if they were dancing together.
I closed my eyes and thought.
I can't just wait to follow my plans have all the fun when this world will fall to ashes and then the only thing that will be left behind in this world will be screams of despair.
<I don't want to ask this but why do you want such a peaceful world to fall.>
I wonder. Hmm....
I began to think that when I started to have fun in these things?
Back From The Old World?
Yes.
What age was I when I started to think of these things as fun?
Maybe... from high school?
But why did I have these thoughts?
I asked myself as I began to think the day when it all begun.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
A/N- Okay so this is a type of explanation of Rein's some skills and items which he has. The next chapter would be on his backstory. After which I will continue his story in this world.
