Chapter 10: Buy an answer from The System!

Having more room to look at the battles, Leon controlled his nine spirits with most of his focus. He first hit the skeleton with one flame spirit, doing a little damage to him. Of course, those legendary flames would burn until Leon lost all of his mana points, so it wasn't like he did no damage.

He'd do a lot of damage over time.

Unfortunately, Leon and Louise didn't have that much time. Leon promptly called all his nine spirits and pelted them in tandem at the same skeleton.

BOOM!

"Now, I like it even more." Leon sneered, stuffing the eyesockets of his enemy with those nine spirits. At this vital point, the flames did a little more damage, but not as much as Leon would like. "I added too many points to strength, didn't I?"

It was also a matter of familiarity with mana and a fire concept, to say nothing of the skeleton's cold bodies. In the future, Leon surely would do much better with that skill.

He was also content with how he'd used it.

A few minutes later, Leon and Louise stood with fifteen skeletons on their side.

[You were unable to keep the souls of the skeletons.]

[You can keep controlling them through your brain.]

"Master, we did it!" Louise skipped close to Leon and nearly threw herself at him. However, she stopped herself, not because of her feelings, but because of Leon's state.

He had the nine flame spirits and the fifteen skeletons under his control. It was the first time he used his brain in such a way, so even though he had the peak humanity's body and leveled up a few times, he felt mentally and physically exhausted.

It was a price of having too powerful talent.

Still smiling, Leon replied and raised his hand for a high five, "We did it."

Louse lifted her hand. And before she could do anything, immense pressure descended on them. She knew the same skill that had caused the deep hole in the ground would hit them soon — her heart sinking.

She could move just fine, but the explosion would come out at any moment. What should she do? Should she turn around and run away? But Leon was tired, and he surely-

"Master!" Louise felt Leon hauling her up, then he threw her with every drop of strength in his arms. Because he used so much strength, Louise flew like a bird. "No! Master!"

And then, the explosion occurred.

BOOM!

All fifteen skeletons crumbled and became dust. In their place, a deep hole of a much bigger size than before appeared, seemingly having no one inside.

From afar, Louise was frightened and repulsed with herself. How could she doubt herself and not trust Leon, even after fighting with him against the undead enemies? Why did she ask herself so many questions instead of believing in him and herself?

Tears tumbled down her cheeks, but she despised those tears this time.

"I'm the worst… I'm the worst!" Louise screamed out of her lungs, throwing all her sadness at the cloudless sky. No one answered or comforted her, leaving the fox girl to her feelings alone.

And after spending time with Leon, it hurt even more.

"How come you are not dead?" Ronald's voice slipped through Louise's cries, filling her ears with the message she'd been begging for.

She wheeled to the deep hole and found a hand grasping the rim. A few seconds later, the other hand came out from the hole's depths, and slowly, Leon emerged from the inside.

His body was in a pretty bad state. His skin cracked and opened, ushering his blood outside. The skeleton and the fox girl could see Leon's bones, ribs, and some of his flesh dangling from his wounds. It was such gore that Louise nearly puked, covering her lips with her hands.

All his clothes gone, Leon simply felt an indescribable pain and a cold breeze. "Because I want to live, understood? I just want to live, you fucking shit."

For some reason, well, Leon knew very well why, his mind was deeply focused on Ronald. He saw him fine, his vision was simply too clear, and he really wanted to turn that guy into a monster card.

"It's true that I want to live well here… But it's not like I have any grand ambitions, so maybe you and your fucking kind can actually fuck off from my girl and me?" Leon asked while slowly making his way toward Ronald. ƒ𝓇e𝙚𝔀𝐞𝚋𝓃𝐨𝘷e𝙡.𝒄𝗼m

The enemy skeleton simply didn't have any mana to cast another skill, and his physical strength should be close to zero because his stats were mainly added to [INT]. Leon bet on that, and he was sure he was right because that guy had cast just two powerful skills — nothing more.

At last, the skeleton and the human faced themselves.

Leon extended his hand and grasped Ronald's spine. "Why do you hate me?"

"Because you were given a second chance! You've failed to understand it?!" Ronald snapped, feeling the imminent death, and howled at Leon. "Why am I a skeleton while you were transmigrated to a new world with even more gifts?! Why didn't I get a chance to go through tests and become a human on Earth?! Huh?! Why?!"

"Have you ever considered buying an answer from The System Shop?" Leon asked coldly, breaking the skeleton's spine and giving him a slow but certain death.

Ronald's red hues flickered from indignation — no answer came out from the depths of his skull.

And when he felt like he'd just a few seconds left, he roared in thunder, "Our hatred toward your kind runs deep in our souls, otherworlder! All undead are your enemies! Lord will guide us to your world and erase your kind! You'll regret coming here! You should've died-"
