HISS!
Fein inhaled deeply as he saw the usefulness and versatility of Michael’s armor. He didn’t expect that there’s such armor in the Ranger’s Eye. He knew that if he had known it earlier, he would have exchanged it with his contribution points for his sister.
‘Well, what’s done is done.’
Michael had already gotten it, and as he says, he had already intended to buy it for a long time. Of course, He’s happy for his friend. He didn’t regret that he only knows the armor know, or else he would feel bad for Michael.
‘An armor used by the slayer of cloud dragon once. This origin is certainly badass.’ Fein felt a bit familiar with the description but he doesn’t really know why though. ‘Must be my illusion,’ he shrugged.
Then he read the analyze the possible application of the abilities the armor possessed. As a teammate of Micheal, understanding his capabilities could let him coordinate with him and properly synergize their abilities. That’s why Fein always took his time to understand his teammates’ habits, strengths, and weaknesses. Fortunately, his probe ability made it easier for him as he didn’t need to extract the information from them personally, as he could just use ‘probe’. ‘Thank god, the system has such a useful ability.’
.....
First, the ‘Fly’ ability, this ability gave Michael an advantage over enemies who can’t fly, and he can synergize this with his shadow abilities, which would make his mobility even more troublesome. Second, ‘Ranade’ is an offensive ability that would help Michael in the long run. Honestly, Fein found out that Michael lacks a decent offensive ability because Michael’s only offensive ability prioritizes lethality and it has a severe limitation that he can only use it once a day. Although Fein doesn’t know how strong ‘Ranade’ is or his so-called Flame Form, he speculates that it should be an AOE ability with decent power. And lastly, what made even Fein envious is, ‘Fluff’ this ability freaking gave Michael a whopping twenty-five percent damage reduction. Although twenty doesn’t seem big. But it’s different when what it reduces is damage! What does it mean? It simply means that it would reduce the damage of any form of attacks such as physical, mental, soul, and other things that caused damage!
Fein sighed because what made ‘Fluff’ a desirable skill is that it’s a passive ability. It means that it is active all the time and doesn’t consume degu energy at all. With this, Michael would become more resistant to beatings, and he won’t die easily. With Michael’s shadow ability, which already gave him an excellent survival capability, giving the armor to him is equivalent to giving wings to a tiger! Now, he could soar to the sky with ease!
Fein honestly loves his ‘Probe’ ability so much. It had helped him numerous times to gain an advantage over his opponents. It makes him always one step ahead in every battle because he would have already known the enemies’ trump cards at the start. With this, the probability of getting caught off-guard had almost vanished. The ‘Probe’ ability lets him think ahead on how to counter his opponent’s ability without him having to do a trial and error. Not only that, but he could also appraise his opponent’s equipment. For Fein, the value of ‘Probe’ could even surpass that of Causal Ability!
‘Well, where am I again...’ Fein scratched his head awkwardly. He had strayed far too much from his initial thought.
“Is there something wrong?” Michael asked.
After hearing Michael, Fein woke up and smiled at him. “Nothing... I’m just glad that you like the sword I gave you.” he pointed at the black sword on Michael’s scabbard.
It’s one of the swords that he chose in the treasury room in Vladimir’s mansion. An undisputed A-rank sword!
Why he had chosen the sword? Because he saw that the characteristics of the sword suited Michael’s shadow ability very much.
This is the result of his probe on the black sword.
Name: Executioner’s Shadow Blade
Type: Sword / Offense
Sharpness: A+
Durability: A+
Description: It’s a fragment of the Shadow Monarch’s Sword ‘Shadow Bringer’
Anti-Regen (Passive)- The sword contains shadow energy that could completely stop the opponent’s regeneration powers when hit.
Veil of Shadows (Active)- A shadow veil would envelop the user and give him absolute invisibility for one minute. It also increases the users’ movement speed and attack speed by a hundred percent.
Shadow Torch (Passive)- Every time the sword hits a target, it would increase the target’s pain receptor by a thousand percent once and inflict excruciating pain at the soul level. With every hit, the opponent’s pain receptor would increase by one hundred percent, which could stack with each other without limit.
‘It really suited Michael.’ Fein looked at the sword thoughtfully. He just realized that with his every use of ‘probe’ in equipment. It always has a description that gave Fein an idea of how vast the World he currently resides in. For example, who the fuck is Shadow Monarch? Ranade? And the Sun God?
With this, he could vaguely guess that there are terrifying existences out there and just from their name, Fein could already feel that all of them seem to be big bosses.
‘Damn, it seems there’s a lot of higher existence out there that can kill me easily. Just where are they? Are they in other realms or dimensions?’ Fein became solemn when he thought of these possibilities.
This means that the Human not only needed to watch out for a sudden invasion of the Demon. They also have to defend against those Gods that vanished in history that might suddenly pop out or the existences in the items’ description. Fein doesn’t know those being still existed, but he knew that he has to prepare himself and become stronger enough to defend himself and the people closer to him in the future. After all, who knew when they would suddenly come one after another on Earth?
