Everyone Else Has a System-Chapter 239 Cristine Sinus Petra#2
"Your Unique Skill… have you ever used it?" I asked, and she looked at me before nodding casually as she spoke,"every once in a while during my missions, I end up using it against the strongest enemy. All the more, especially if there are more than one powerful person against me."
"How many?" I asked with my eyes narrowed at her and she sighed before speaking,"about 40 or something… it's a pain to use that skill, but why are you asking that so seriously? You aren't going to stop me from using that, are you?"
As her words came out, she looked at me sceptically before I shook my head as I spoke,"no. I won't stop you from using this. In fact, I want you to use it more and more… just on the people I want you to use."
Hearing my words, she looked at me with a really curious gaze as she asked,"do you know what happens when I use this skill? To the people I use the skill on, I mean."
I nodded as,"probably an excruciating amount of pain before they try to kill themselves. You probably made sure they don't do that so that you can absorb their complete soul, don't you?"
"Wow. Man, you really are something. Even though I kind of know that you know everything, it still surprises me that you do. Sometimes I wonder if you are human or not? Or perhaps are you God or something?" She asked, all surprised, and I smiled at her as I spoke,
"If I were a God, I wouldn't be really asking for help from others, now would I?"
"So. Tell me mister all knowing, what about the thing that you were talking about?" she asked with her eyes shining as she waited for me to tell me how I can help her get stronger.
"I was going to help you gain a skill… but looking at that Unique Skill, I think it would be better if I help you evolve it first. With evolution, the real potential of the skill should come out," I spoke as I pondered a little before speaking,
"Soul Summon: Aelia." Before Cristine can comprehend what I just did, Aelia manifests right beside me as she takes a deep yawn and looks at Cristine and then at me. 𝐟𝓇ℯ𝒆we𝒃𝘯𝒐νe𝑙.co𝚖
Cristine looks at Aelia with a baffled look as her mouth opens up wide and she keeps observing her for a while. After a few moments of stupefaction, Cristine looks at me and asks,
"How many girls are around you?"
"..." I thought she would be curious about who she was or how she came here, but… this?
"A lot more than you can think… There are about at least 6-7 you haven't met yet," Aelia chimed in as she observed Cristine and then continued,"so what am I doing here?"
I turned to Aelia and asked,"Do you have anything related to Soul Magic? If I remember correctly, Rosalyn should have passed on some knowledge to you, no?"
Aelia ponders over it a little and then nods before I turn at Cristine as I speak,"show her your Unique Skill."
Cristine then brings out her status and shows us her skill again.
[Unique Skill(1):
Skill Devourer: Allows the user to take up all the skills of another person for an unknown amount of time temporarily after devouring his or her skill.]
Looking at that skill, even Aelia had to blink a couple of times to confirm what she was looking at before turning at Cristine and then at me.
"You really are something… finding the unique girls and then having them entangled with you… A thorough pervert, I see," she speaks and Cristine, who was hearing her words, ends up nodding at it.
I look at these two idiots, who have never met each other, getting along so well right from the first meeting.
"So, what do you want me to do?" Aelia asks and I speak,"I need you to teach her how to manipulate one's soul. Can you do it?"
Aelia ponders about it before speaking,"I don't think I can do it here. I need at least one person whose body I can take control of. If you can provide me with a body, or even better , about a dozen living people, I think I can show her how a soul works. Though, asking anything more is a kind of…"
"Hard?" asks Crisitne, but Aelia shakes her head as she speaks,"no… it's time consuming. It took me about a decade to learn everything about Soul Magic, however that too was only basic knowledge and not the intermediate and advanced level." Hearing her words, Cristine turns silent and looks at me with a slight hopeful look and I ponder a little before speaking,"maybe not now… but one month after I return, I think I can do something about it. As for the other thing that I was going to do, which wasn't related to that Unique Skill of yours… Well, I think it would be better to focus on that right now."
'Wish I could talk to Amon, right now but… oh well,' I thought as I spoke to her,
"Next time you get close to someone you are going to kill, rather than directly doing the deed, perform a certain ritual. These are the charts and directions of doing it. If I am correct, you should get a quest related to that circle. However, there are a couple of people who will get a quest to kill you as well, so be careful with that."
Hearing my words, she looks at me with a complicated expression as she asks,"what people?"
"Well… they are more like a group of people with a System related to Soul System Hunters, that take and sell people with skills similar to yours. They have tracking devices and stuff for that… you might find many in this continent itself. I will have sent the rest of the information to you by the end of the day," I spoke before I stood up and began moving from there.
Aelia was already gone as I took my magic back and spoke,"See you in a week, then. Good bye," before vanishing from there.
