The Lust System: Chapter 150 (Unlocked)

 

Chapter 150 – Approaching Guests

 

Chief Li, along with Jing Fei, reached this school where Evil Ghost Luo should be hiding at.

After so long, their people had finally found a clue about his whereabouts. It took quite some time for them to be able to get a lead, but no one could be blamed since it was a difficult feat to search for any signs of him.

The city is vast, and it would take time for them to search the entire area without missing anything.

However, this morning, news came about Evil Ghost Luo’s supposed location. The report only mentioned this place and not his exact position, but it was enough.

Throughout the day, they made their preparations before moving out as soon as everything was ready.

“Chief Li, where are we going to begin?”

Jing Fei looked at the vast empty school grounds. There were several buildings, including some dormitories for the faculties and students.

The elite personnel they had in total were limited in numbers. They couldn’t afford to split up them up in groups.

It will also put their few days of coordination plans to waste if they would have to separately move to different areas.

A message from the higher-ups was sent to notify them of a Rank 2 assisting their group to deal with Evil Ghost Luo. However, they mentioned that the individual was going to move on his own.

Now they could only think of a way to properly go through this. Chief Li only thought for a second before responding,

“We will go through everything, starting from the first building to the last. The expert assisting us was said to have been dealing with ghosts for a few years now, so we only need to be prepared in supporting him.”

“With his skill, he should have some hidden cards to quickly locate this Evil Ghost Luo. That was why this person was moving by himself.”

“Our people will be in charge of surrounding the area to prevent Evil Ghost Luo from escaping once again.”

“Bear in mind that this is a school, we have to finish this as fast as we can. Also, we couldn’t afford to damage the buildings, or this will be another problem for us to deal with.”

“Fortunately, we have someone who could use set up a barrier to prevent the sounds of battle happening inside to be heard by people living nearby.”

Before setting out, Chief Li repeatedly warn their people to be discreet since this was a densely populated area, and they don’t want to cause an uproar.

Evil Ghost Luo has the upper hand this time as they had to make as little damage as they could, thus needing to retrain themselves, considerably weakening their fighting power.

Chief Li didn’t know whether this was something that Evil Ghost Luo had thought about and planned for by hiding in here, but it was working.

“Remember, the last thing we want is to let him escape. If he gets away again, then we would have a harder time to locate him since he should be close to fully healing from his injuries by now.”

“We have to keep a lookout for the signal the Rank 2 master would send us and move towards his direction right away.”

“This operation has to be over before the sun rises, or else we would have to retreat, and his escape would be assured once more.”

Jing Fei nodded in understanding. They had been preparing for this mission for a few days now, and it was starting to be a bother, limiting them from accomplishing their other tasks.

He knew that they could not fail this time.

Chief Li couldn’t help but think how bothersome this problem is, having been troubling his mind for a while now before adding,

“If we had a few more reinforcements, the probability of us succeeding this mission would be much greater. However, other cities were also busy dealing with the same problems, and they couldn’t send out a few people this time.”

“I have some contacts that should be staying around this area, but they had to go somewhere else and weren’t here currently.”

“There were also the others that were hard to reach, and even if I did ask them for assistance, they probably couldn’t be bothered by it.”

“Forget about it. We could be needed at any time, so we need to be alert. Notify our people to start searching the vicinity before going through each building.”

“Also, don’t lose the bell, that’s the only one we have. If it got destroyed, we wouldn’t have any more ways of finding him.”

The bell Chief Li was talking about was an item that was lent to them to be able to locate where Evil Ghost Luo is.

It could sense traces of ghost energy from the surroundings and would ring out once it was at a certain distance of it.

This item was the only one they had, and if they lost it, there would be no chance for them to distinguish Evil Ghost Luo from ordinary people.

Jing Fei followed Chief Li’s instructions as he spoke through his communication device.

Now, everything was up to whether they would successfully locate the position of Evil Ghost Luo.

Though not in his intention, the rooftop was in ruins with heavily damaged walls and floors.

However, Max couldn’t care less considering his present situation. Evil Ghost Luo was currently chasing him while simultaneously striking out several palms, and only one of those was enough to put his internal organs into a mess.

Unknowingly, Evil Ghost Luo became more and more violent as time passed. Max felt like this man didn’t care about himself and wanted to risk it all against him though he had no clue why.

Only Evil Ghost Luo knew the reason. He could feel it; his senses were warning him of danger.

In the beginning, it was faint, but it was still there, so he felt pressured and decided to attack his prey without waiting for a few more days.

Now, it wasn’t even close to being faint. His senses were almost screaming at him, warning him about a threat to his life.

Evil Ghost Luo thought that those from the Special Affairs Department might have already found his location and were on their way here.

He got away last time because of their unpreparedness, not knowing how to deal with him properly, but now, that would certainly not be the case.

There was also that powerful individual who assisted them in the end. He would be a fool not to expect it to happen again.

He had to break the barrier past Rank 1 and finally get to Rank 2. That was the only way.

Not only he would completely heal his injuries, but he would also unlock another skill that could potentially make him strong enough to destroy those people who wanted to take his life.

One thing was certain, once he reaches Rank 2, the possibility of him escaping this city and the powerful figures on his back will significantly increase.

Evil Ghost Luo eyed his prey, who was using his speed to dodge all his attacks. This couldn’t continue any longer.

With a shout, he leaped towards Max, giving it his all.

No matter what, even if he had to sacrifice this body of his, Evil Ghost Luo would catch him and consume his soul to finally breakthrough.

Max, on the other hand, had no idea about this. He was only doing everything he could to run away from this rampaging man, hoping he would slow down soon or, better yet, exhaust his energy.

Chapter 149 – Clash

 

The wall where Max was on had a clear vision of the only entrance towards the rooftop. Nothing would escape from his eyes if anyone were to go through it.

Little Dou was also hovering over, curiously looking whether someone would come.

While waiting, Max thought back to the previous incident where he wasn’t able to kill the ghost’s body.

The damage he dealt vanished like it was erased. It was quite similar to Yu’er’s Reverse Time, except it was instant, faster than his eyes could blink. It was unbelievable.

Max didn’t think it was a skill since it was instantaneous, and he doesn’t believe someone could use their skill right after the time resumes knowing they would die. No one could react that fast.

It seemed more like Max triggered one of his life-saving cards. Perhaps it came from a protective item or a perk of being possessed by a ghost.

But it doesn’t seem like it can be used constantly. Though Max still considered the probability of it happening.

Secondly, since the ghost came out unharmed, Max had to think about whether he exposed himself being an Awakened.

Max thought for a moment and concluded that he should at least expect the ghost to be aware of it. There should be an indicator of some sort that notified him of his escape from death.

However, he was confident that his skill was not exposed since the time had stopped for everyone.

If Max were in his situation, he would only be filled with confusion. There was no way for him to observe what happened. Visually, he would merely see a series of flashing movements.

An unknown amount of time had passed, and the man still hasn’t shown up.

This ghost was taking so long. Maybe he wasn’t able to find them and went somewhere else? Then if so, they can go home!

Just as Max was thinking about this, someone interrupted him and pulled him out of his thoughts.

[He’s here!]

 

Little Dou flew back, urgently notifying him about the incoming enemy.

Max immediately became alert. He already had several plans in his mind. The only thing he had to do was to wait and see which would be the most suitable.

Evil Ghost Luo got to the top floor after wandering around the building to find any signs of his prey.

Being a security guard for a few days let him become familiar with the establishment, so it wasn’t hard for him to roam the area.

After finishing all the places he could come up with, Evil Ghost Luo turned to his final destination.

This time, he had a feeling that his prey would be there.

When Evil Ghost Luo got to the rooftop, there was nothing to be seen. However, his eyes mysteriously glowed.

Max kept his eyes on this man that was standing near the entrance as if he was a statue. Inside, Max was starting to believe he had this man fooled.

This ghost took a long time to reach here, and now he was only staying still. Can he even locate him? Would he give up?

Max continued to stay in his position. This ghost giving up was what he precisely wanted.

This would be the ideal development. When the ghost finally gives up and takes off, Max would secretly trail after him to wherever lair he hides in.

Afterwards, he would then decide how to deal with him.

Without warning, the man suddenly dashed towards his direction before punching out with an energy empowered fist.

Max could feel the ferocity of his attack from where he was hiding. Not wanting to receive the blow, he dodged away, in turn, revealing himself.

The ground vibrated once the fist came in contact with the wall, cracks formed all over it. Luckily, Max evaded it, or else it would have hurt quite badly.

Since he already revealed himself, slowly, his form returned to his original appearance.

Max grew more vigilant, but he also couldn’t hide his astonishment. This ghost somehow had a skill that could detect him.

He doesn’t have a clue how that could be possible. Facing this seemingly skilled opponent, Max decided to take this seriously.

Truthfully, it was quite simple. Evil Ghost Luo was a ghost. Ghosts like him suck souls out of humans and consume it.

Having the ability to suck souls would also mean that they have a way to detect it.

This was also how Evil Ghost Luo ended up targetting Max. He could detect a unique soul from him that appeared to be more appealing compared to others.

Even though Evil Ghost Luo didn’t see anyone on the spot where he detected a soul, he still fully believed someone was there.

Used to surviving on his own, Evil Ghost Luo had heard about different kinds of treasures. An item that provides invisibility wasn’t unheard of; that was why he never found it odd.

Evil Ghost Luo had already sensed him right as he got into the rooftop. The only reason he was standing still near the entrance was because of him being wary of an ambush.

From what he sensed, his prey was only a few seconds away from him. He could easily reach him, but his cautious side prevented him from making a move straight away.

He expected some reinforcements supporting behind his target since there was no way his prey would hide so close to him. Evil Ghost Luo was convinced that this must be a trap.

When he initiated an attack to get a feel of the situation, hitting the area where the soul was, his prey finally revealed himself.

Max faced the man who had a look of amusement on his face. Taking out his dagger, Max returned his stare as if challenging him.

This could be said to be his first true battle; a rush of excitement was flowing through his body.

In the meantime, he would not use his skills. Max wanted to test out his combat ability first.

With this, he kicked the ground to charge forward.

The only thing he had to be careful of was the original form of the ghost. As long as the ghost itself doesn’t come out, he could do whatever he wants.

Max slashed him directly on his neck. Although he didn’t plan to use his skill, it doesn’t mean he would play around.

His attack was targeted to kill his body and force him to come out. Max had some basic knowledge relating to him, such as physical attacks won’t be able to touch ghosts.

For that reason, he wanted to purely use his combat ability to defeat his body, and once his true form emerges, Max would then use his skills to finish it.

His attack got evaded by a simple backward movement, and before he could deliver another, a swift palm filled with force shot out. Max quickly leaped away to avoid it.

That was close. It almost hit him.

This man seemed to be only using his body to attack, and the energy in his attacks was also quite strange.

His weird energy was dangerously powerful. Max couldn’t understand how he was doing it. He only knows that he would not want to be hit by that.

Once again, tightly gripping the dagger with his hand, Max went in for another attack. He made use of his agile body to slowly overpower his opponent.

Both of them continued to exchange attacks. Max had already inflicted a few scratches all over his opponent’s body, but no one showed any signs of slowing down.

Outside the closed school gate this late at night, two individuals can be seen speaking to each other as they guardedly made their way inside.

Locked Chapters:

The Lust System: Chapter 148 (Unlocked)

 

Chapter 148 – Only Have to Wait

 

While Max bolted up, he took out a mask from his Inventory and put it on as a precaution.

If someone else were to spot them, he didn’t want to further expose his identity. And with the mask on, Max would feel more comfortable using his skills incase he was forced to.

This mask was different from the one Max had on him when he was running around the city as the Shadow Thief.

Max would rather not have his real identity be associated with the Shadow Thief. Even if it hasn’t gained any fame yet but soon it inevitably will, and he didn’t want trouble coming after him for being connected with it.

Before he was able to ask, Little Dou landed on his head and quickly told him what she saw,

[It’s a ghost! You should be careful!]

 

“Ghost? That white silhouette was a ghost?”

Max wasn’t able to take a closer look at it since his eyes were looking at the unbelievable sight of its body being undamaged, and right after that, they had to back away.

The ghost only fully manifested when they were already running away, but Little Dou could easily recognize it, thus saving them that crucial second where it would have gotten in contact with Max.

The last thing Max saw was the white figure slowly becoming larger.

Evil Ghost Luo was filled with surprise, watching his target suddenly turn his back and run.

Usually, his target will be in a permanent state of unrest with his ghost energy corrupting their minds, filling them with terror.

Once that happens, they won’t be able to do anything, and he would happily harvest their souls to slowly consume it.

It always gave him the feeling of being in control of their lives. It was such an addicting feeling.

However, to his miscalculation, his current target unexpectedly broke out and took off swiftly that even he couldn’t chase after them.

If he could, he would have run after them right away, but it was too risky.

Evil Ghost Luo was in his soul form, and he didn’t want to leave his body here and take off without it.

His soul was injured, and he couldn’t afford to risk his already severely injured ghost body to what he guessed should be a fellow Awakened.

That could solely be the reason why his prey got away. If he were an ordinary person, he wouldn’t have been able to get away from his control.

An Awakened.

This was his first time trying to hunt one. It should be fun. This was just right. If he uses an Awakened to breakthrough to the next rank, then that would be an achievement he could take pride in.

“So it will be you then. You should be grateful that you will become the final sacrifice for my breakthrough to Rank 2.”

His body then moved as his lips curled up with a sinister expression on his face.

“Hmm?”

On the ground, he saw a familiar necklace that seemed to be damaged. When he took a closer look at it, his expression warped into fury.

“You have truly angered me now. This is the worst mistake you could ever make. Once I catch you, I will make you regret living up to this day.”

In his hand, was a cracked necklace. This was the most valuable treasure in his possession. Evil Ghost Luo had to complete a few months worth of missions from the Ghost Hall to get this item.

This accessory can save his life from a fatal attack once and gets broken after being used with no chance of it ever working again.

If he wanted one more of those, he had to work for a couple of months once again, and he didn’t have that kind of free time right now.

He was unfortunate that his item broke at the worse time possible. He was already at the barrier of his breakthrough, and this item could come in handy when he is in the midst of breaking through.

After all, this was another life. Even though it won’t work with his ghost form, his disposable body could still be saved from death once.

Evil Ghost Luo could breakthrough in this body while it was wearing the life-saving accessory. It would be as if he had two extra life.

But now it was gone. And the worst was he didn’t know how it got destroyed. This thought filled him with rage.

His soul was in excruciating pain from being attacked by a powerful Awakened, and he couldn’t get out of the city since there were a lot of those people from the Special Affairs Department searching for him day and night.

Now, he also lost his life-saving treasure. Evil Ghost Luo was shaking with fury. His anger was pointed to his prey, who was the one responsible for his hard-earned item being wasted.

At the same time, he resented the Special Affairs Department for putting him in this situation.

Evil Ghost Luo had a cautious personality, but he was forced to make his move earlier than his initial plan.

That was because he could feel that those people from the Special Affairs Department were narrowing their search to his location. Though he didn’t have anything to base it on, Evil Ghost Luo trusted his instincts more than everyone.

He felt the need to breakthrough tonight, or else he would have some trouble hiding from all of them.

With his soul being injured, Evil Ghost Luo wasn’t confident about surviving a few direct hits of Elemental Attacks.

It was only a matter of time before his malicious ghost energy would be detected by one of their people. Evil Ghost Luo was sure of it.

He wasn’t those old ghosts that could perfectly mask their energy and pretend to be an ordinary person.

His abilities weren’t that powerful, yet so he was bound to be located if he stays here for long.

There should be no room for error this time. He will breakthrough this day and leave the city untouched.

Evil Ghost Luo thought as he made his way up to where Max was, his eyes shining in a haunting light.

Max and Little Dou reached the rooftop where they decided they would confront this unknown ghost.

In this place, there would be more room for them to move around against this dangerous enemy.

They don’t know anything about this ghost or why it chose to attack them, but the same could be said to their opponent, who doesn’t know anything about them, so it was only down to who was stronger.

Max found a spot to hide and observe if the ghost was going to be able to find them, but then he suddenly thought of something else he could do.

As he leaned on the white wall, slowly, Max started to blend in, though not to the point of invisibility, he only made the white wall thicker as he disappeared.

The usefulness of the Shapeshifting Skill in situations like this was convenient.

With this, he only had to wait. Max slightly smiled, wondering whether he would make the ghost look like a fool.

Chapter 147 – Unexpected Occurrence

 

Max felt like he was put in a heavy state of confusion. He didn’t know why or how, but a part of his mind realized it wasn’t normal, and he shouldn’t let it overwhelm him.

A strong instinct kicked in as his eyes shook, and his mind, fighting off the invading force that was influencing his mind.

He was like a fish trapped in a net, trying its best to shake off the material that was restraining it. To an outsider’s eyes, Max looked helpless with nothing left to do but to accept his fate.

In this case, Little Dou, who only recently became conscious of what was happening, saw him having a dazed expression.

However, before her heart could sink, everything around them stopped.

The unmoving world surrounded them was quite distinct. Every noise that was transmitted to their ears no matter how faint disappeared.

This made Little Dou sigh in relief. Not long after, Max got himself back, successfully breaking off the force which seemed to be influencing his mind.

All of this happened in a split second. Max hastily took a step back from the revolting face that was too close to him.

Blinking his eyes, Max looked at his frozen surroundings before turning to Little Dou, who was intently staring at the unidentified man.

Her eyes were without fear, only a glimmer of curiosity. Contrary to Max, who had a pair of watchful eyes as if thinking that it would suddenly move towards him even though he knew the time has just stopped.

“What is this thing coming out of his mouth? It almost touched me.”

“Could this be a skill?”

It was the only explanation for something like this to be possible. Ordinary people won’t have some faint white figure flowing out of their mouths.

Max was lucky to evade it by using his Time Stop before it was able to touch him. Once it touches him, it would stick to his soul and slowly pull it out of him.

Even if he were to get away, he would still receive injuries to his soul that could take some time to heal, and he will also be racked with excruciating pain every once in a while.

[It looks like it!]

 

The form hasn’t fully materialized, yet that was why Little Dou couldn’t recognize what this blurry white figure was. She could only look at it with interest.

While they spoke, time was being wasted. Counting in his head, Max was aware that a few seconds had already passed.

He knew that they had to do something about this man.

From how his mind blurred, influenced by an unknown force, Max wasn’t sure whether he would be under it once again when the time resumes, so they have to finish this before time runs out.

Max was only able to use his Time Stop when he suddenly felt a sense of crisis looming over him and instinctively activated it.

This was one of the life-saving exercises he spent time to get used to, and the instant Max experienced the overwhelming confusion that put his mind in chaos, he forcefully disregarded everything and willed the time to stop.

Fortunately, the confused state that hit him was extremely obvious. Max felt as if he was having a nightmare that put him into severe unrest while being aware that he was still standing here at school.

Such a weird experience. A skill that he couldn’t explain and a potentially dangerous one. In truth, the force that put his mind into unrest wasn’t a skill.

It was only the ghost energy that every ghost uses, an energy that is unique to ghosts. When it gets in contact with humans, it will fill their minds with various dreadful images and gloomy feelings.

When the ghost energy reaches an ordinary person, they will freeze in horror as their minds won’t be able to resist, and once they were under that state, their soul is free for the ghost to take.

However, since Max had a stronger mental resistance, it was only able to affect him for a short amount of time, and it wasn’t as formidable, which aided on him lightly getting away.

In his hand, a black dagger appeared.

Max had prepared a few ordinary weapons on his Inventory for times like this. Since he was unsure about the person’s skill, Max didn’t want to give him a chance to fight back.

This unknown Awakened that he had never met attempted to attack him. If he didn’t get to react fast enough, horrible things would have happened to him.

Max was sure that the man wasn’t going to let him go after this, so he didn’t waste any more time.

With no hesitation, Max dashed towards the man’s unmoving body and sliced his neck, giving him a long deep cut that should be enough to kill him, but to make sure, he also stabbed his heart to secure his death.

Little Dou only watched things proceed as if nothing extraordinary was happening around her. She flew around the Awakened’s body while focusing around the faint white figure, thoroughly inspecting it.

Once time resumes, that will be the time of his death. Max stepped back, preparing to dispose of the man’s body as soon as it falls.

He planned to store it inside his Inventory. In there, no one would be able to locate him, and even the slightest trace of him will be gone from this world. Max would then be able to avoid any future problems appearing.

Surprisingly, Max didn’t feel anything. Even though he knew he had killed someone, Max felt nothing strange about it.

This unknown man was his enemy, and he wasn’t someone who would let an enemy go and invite future troubles to himself, especially if they were after his life.

Time resumed, and Max was waiting to see the man fall. However, something he wasn’t expecting occurred.

The deep cut that he delivered and the stab to the heart that he dealt disappeared as if the damage he inflicted never happened.

What happened? How did it suddenly disappear? Shouldn’t he be dead by now? In a second, his thoughts were filled with various questions.

Little Dou, who was curiously inspecting the white figure forming suddenly shouted as she promptly flew back to Max that was only a few steps away,

[Stay away! Don’t let it get closer to you!]

 

Feeling the urgency on her voice, instead of making his way down to head home, Max made a dash upwards.

His senses told him that something wasn’t right about this, and if they were to end up clashing, Max would prefer to be in someplace without anyone watching them.

While Little Dou was staring at the faint figure, the time resumed, and what took shape before her was something she never expected.

A faint white figure of a man slowly materialized. Little Dou had the knowledge of what this form is, and it could only be one thing, a ghost!

And if it were a ghost, then the damage Max inflicted wasn’t going to be effective.

There was also the fact that none of them know the strength of the ghost they were against.

For now, they had to move away and reassess their current situation.

Locked Chapters:

The Lust System: Chapter 146 (Unlocked)

 

Chapter 146 – Unknown Assailant

 

The weekend had gone by without much things happening.

Max never stopped trying out ways to use his new skill, along with Xue and Yu’er.

With the numerous trials they have been through, all of them were now extremely familiar with the Shapeshifting Skill.

This is especially the case for Xue, who got to learn new techniques that she had no idea she could do before.

Xue had indeed gained a lot this time, and she couldn’t be more grateful now that she had more efficient ways to apply when she uses her skill.

The uneventful weekend seemed to end quite abruptly, and it was time for them to go back to the city.

Of course, this villa won’t be abandoned. They had decided to come back later when they have some more free time to spare and need to try something out away from outsider’s eyes.

The past few days had been relaxing for all of them. They only spent their days in their land, not bothering to go out and explore the small beach town a few minutes of walk away from their area.

When they got back to the city, Max could feel an entirely different atmosphere in his environment.

He couldn’t explain it with words, only that he felt unsafe as if anything beyond their control could happen without warning.

But it didn’t eliminate the fantastic sight of civilization he missed during their past few days of staying cooped up busying themselves in their secluded villa.

Nodding his head, Max thought his city was indeed not bad. Awakeneds? Enemies? Unexpected events? When any of that occurs, they will simply deal with them all.

The school day began once more, and Max had new sets of works he was required to finish.

It was a tiring day. When he was done, it was already dark outside.

This day, Max was forced to remain at school for some activities which he wanted nothing to do with.

However, since Max was a student, he had to do it. These were the daily menial tasks he had to always deal with.

Yu’er and Xue were long back home now. Max informed them earlier about his assignments and asked them to go on without him.

Now Max would have to walk back alone without anyone to speak with except Little Dou.

Thinking of this, Max couldn’t help but curse at this school and his teacher, who was responsible for him staying late like this.

Someone like him should have more free time, not wasting his life away at this boring institution.

His impression of going to school was slowly getting lower and lower, though it wasn’t entirely a bad thing since Max would get to talk with Little Dou about everything revolving the System.

Every time they talked about it, it turns into an interesting conversation. Max would always learn new things by asking Little Dou about every little question that popped up on his head.

From all their conversations so far, Max found more information about the System that he had no idea about.

The System is indeed mysterious. Little Dou once told him never to underestimate the System because he hasn’t touched the majority of its functions yet, and if he thinks the System is quite simple, then that could only mean he didn’t know anything.

This made Max curious about what she was talking about. He was fully aware that he doesn’t know anything and could only put out a few guesses.

However, since Little Dou wasn’t talking about it, Max could only look forward to the future. Perhaps a surprise will be waiting for him then.

Now that he thought about it, he had been saving up Points for a long time now. Recalling last night when he checked his Points before going to bed, he was surprised to find that his total Points had already reached 30600.

Only a few weeks had passed since they decided not to keep spending Points, but now they already had a lot only from the nights they played around in their bed.

Max also remembered Xue, who he had taken some nights ago. That alone should give him around 2800 Points and adding the nights he spent with Yu’er, which was almost every night; it made sense for him to accumulate Points that fast.

Maybe they would only need to wait for a little bit more than a week before they would have enough Points to purchase their chosen skill.

Walking down the hallway of the school building, Max made his way to the stairs, planning to head home after a long day.

From the windows, Max could only see a few students remaining at the school grounds hanging out and playing sports.

Looking at the time on the wall, he figured that they should be going home around this time before the school finally closes.

Max really did stay late this time. Walking strolling, he spoke to Little Dou,

“Finally, we’re heading home now. Haah, I’m so tired.”

“By the way, can you tell me about some good skills I can buy from the Store once I have some extra Points after the Magical Space?”

While walking, Max decided to start a conversation with Little Dou once again to avoid being bored and at the same time, hear her suggestions about some skills she thought would be incredibly useful for him.

[Mn? I know a lot, but the System doesn’t allow me to tell you about it!]

 

Holding a lollipop with both her arms as she delightfully licked it, Little Dou responded like she was used to Max asking her questions that she couldn’t answer.

But this time, Max had a different idea. Feeling that Little Dou might have misunderstood him, he added,

“No, I only want suggestions, and the skills I’m talking about are only limited to those we saw on my phone being used by other Awakeneds. Which of their skills do you think would be useful for me?”

Although he asked for suggestions from Little Dou, it doesn’t mean he would follow whatever she says.

Max has his own lists of skills, which he thinks would be great for him to have. He only wanted to hear what Little Dou was going to say to see if he missed some excellent skills.

Little Dou’s eyes brightened. If she were only giving suggestions on something that Max already had the knowledge of, then the System would most certainly allow her to help.

[Oh! The Teleportation Skill that we saw is really good! If you can have that, you won’t have to always use your Time Stop for small matters such as escaping!]

 

What she was talking about was the minor teleportation that they saw someone has. It allows the user to move a distance away instantly, and it can even pass through solid objects smoothly.

When they turned to the direction of the stairway, Little Dou, who was happily licking her lollipop on Max’s head, saw a man standing right in front of them.

The person’s face with a pair of creepy eyes was too close to Max that Little Dou was spooked, letting go of the lollipop she was holding.

Once she took a closer look, the person’s mouth was opened, and a faint white form was flowing out of it moving directly towards Max.

Before she was able to react and warn him, Max already had a dazed expression.
