Book 3: Chapter 26: Redacted

Scarlet

Where in the ever loving stars did you get the idea that charging a demon over one hundred levels above you was a good fucking idea?! Allen shouts from the other side of the terminal as Ava quietly makes her way out of her office. Not only was it the most reckless thing youve ever done, but you didnt even have to do it! Why the fucking hell did you try that?!

I patiently wait until I hear Ava having left our room before I gently ask, White? Following which a white barrier appears around us, cutting us off from anything. Appreciated.

Knew she was still around somewhere. I kept feeling that annoying sensation that someone was watching me all the way back to the moment I woke up.

Not to mention that Tar said she hadnt left my side once while I was out.

Anyways, I look up at Allen now that its safe to talk before briefly explaining to him what Tar told me about my demonic instinct. And that alone cools down a lot of his anger.

Although I get the feeling hes not any less stressed now. In fact, he might just be more anxious and worried now than before.

So youre saying it might happen again, and theres nothing you can do about it? he eventually asks, a tired yet still slightly hopeful look on his face that Ill say no.

Hmm. Okay. Yeah, I can see the downside there.

Tar snorts at my thoughts.

Yeah, I answer Allen, unfortunately crushing the hope that I saw in his eyes.

Out of nowhere, a clone of his appears out of the terminal screen made out of nanomachines before he walks up to me and hugs me out of nowhere, pulling my face to his chest as I let out a short Uh out of surprise.

Just just for a moment, Allen says, so I decide to let him.

A minute or so passes in silence before he finally lets go. And I cant help but notice that I didnt feel as uncomfortable as I wouldve used to during that.

Probably because of Aria.

Although it could also have something to do with me considering Allen family now, but Id say its probably the first.

A moment passes as Allen looks at me before he says, Ill tell Cynthia what you told me, and White told us that youre done with your internship now. So you can either head back tomorrow or today. Whichever works for you.

I nod at that with a smile before turning around and starting to make my way towards the hall, only pausing once to wave at him and call back, Thanks! See you later!

Now I can go ahead and shop for skills!

As soon as I make it back to my room, I open my Skills Store except this time only having it show any new legendary skills I might have. Just to not tempt me into buying anything else when I should spend my SP on leveling my skills. Only to find a very nice surprise in there. And a very strange surprise along with it.

I stare at the two new skills for what feels like forever before I glance at Tar and mutter, Huh?

But Tar is also staring. Although not at the first one by the looks of it. Only the second.

But what? That shouldnt how? he mutters, just for his eyes to widen as if he came to a realization. Thats why!

Sooo mind filling me in on what the heck those skills are about? I ask, snapping him out of his little reverie.

Tar turns to me and says, Well, it looks like the System gave you a blood and null magic skill thanks to you already having null magic etched skills. I almost completely forgot that could happen, since normally the System never does that. Not unless the achievements made by the user are so great that it decided to dedicate more of its resources just to fix the error. Otherwise the error wouldve never been fixed, and you wouldnt have been shown the skill.

I blink at that before glancing at the Skills Store again. Then at the tanuki. Then the store. And finally the tanuki.

And the other thing? I ask while pointing at the whole REDACTED thing.

Tar blinks before looking and then focusing on me as he answers, Well, your father doesnt want you to know who he is until you meet him. Or you figure it out on your own. So he had his information redacted by the System.

People can do that? Redact their name from etched skills?

Yeah, Tar says while nodding his head.

Then why didnt White? I ask out of curiosity as I focus on the skills again.

Well, he says, only to shrug. Who knows. She probably didnt think that it was very important to hide her identity.

So my fathers identity may be more important than I expected. Good to know.

Probably someone higher up in that branch family than I was guessing. Theres also the veeeery faint possibility of him being the Demon Lord, but from the time Ive been with White, she seems to dislike demons, not to mention the Demon Lords. So thats out.

Then again, she never mentioned the Blood Lord. Only the others.

Hmm. I still dont think its him, but its worth not shoving the possibility out the window at least.

Anyways, both of these skills look great.

One of them looks to be a great finisher move like Ive been wanting for a while now, and the other is a passive and weaker version of blood retribution that is always active and doesnt require mana.

It also uses null magic, which might open you up to getting some more null magic skills in the future, Tar comments, pointing out another benefit of it that I didnt think of. But the important thing in that skill that makes it worth so much more than blood retribution is that it cant be defended against unlike blood retribution. Its true damage.

My eyes widen as that clicks in my head.

Right. Blood retribution can be defended against if someone has a skill to protect their blood or cool it or something. But this passive cant be defended against. Not to mention that its a passive in the first place and will always be active.

I purse my lips while staring at the two skills before finally giving into the temptation and buying them both.

There goes my large store of SP.

Well, you still have 99 more SP to spend, Tar comments, sounding amused.

Well, yeah, I guess I do.

Lets see what I want to upgrade with that.
