Chapter 47: Rebecca’s System (Part-1) (2/2)
Rebecca takes a deep breath before speaking again...
“I cannot specifically tell you everything because my anti-magic barrier is really weak and will last for only a few minutes at most or so but I will speak as much as I can...
“Now, though I cannot tell you the name of my system, I will let you know about its basics first so you can understand when I tell you about my actual problems,” She says.
What? Rebecca has problems with her system?
“My system can be partially classified as a combat type as the skills provided by it are for physical defense. To tell this in an easier way, my skills are basically different types of barriers which I can deploy,” she continues.
Really!? A combat type!? And barriers?
Combat type systems are rare and at the same time, powerful. Even though humans mostly stay in level 1, but still, combat types are important enough to be a huge asset for the nation as their skills are really useful.
In fact, if Rebecca wants, she could easily join the military with her system alone. Though her system skills will be checked there by professionals for proof, the information about it will be hidden under military level classification, so it’s fine.
But well, Rebecca doesn’t look excited or proud of telling me this at all.
“But the way I can use these barrier skills is a little different and complicated as my point consumption doesn’t work normally because of my poison,” she says.
“Wait, what? Your point consumption doesn’t work properly?” I ask in shock.
Please don’t tell me that Rebecca’s system has something similar to mine...
“Well, though there is no problem with the consumption rate itself, my skills are not permanently buyable. They are like combustibles. I have to spend life points every time I have to use them,” She says.
Combustible skills...
These are not that common (especially among humans because of not leveling up) but I have heard about a fair amount of systems with them.
In fact, combustibles have their own perks by being much more powerful than permanent skills. Though I agree, having all your skills combustible is a bit concerning...
“And how many times have you used your skills?” I ask.
“Including the one I just deployed, 5 times in total,” she answers.
I don’t know why but Rebecca’s expressions turn a little strange.
Well, anyway, that’s not too much or too less. It’s a fair number. Everyone tries their skills at least a few times.
“And how many skills do you have?” I ask with a little shaking voice.
To be honest, I feel really scared and excited at the same time asking someone about their system for the first time...
“I have 3 skills/barriers which I can use as of now. First is the anti-magic barrier as you already know, second is a sound barrier and the third... the third... well...” Rebecca says while becoming a little nervous.
Even Aria who was already uneasy about all this has become more so.
“I completely understand if you don’t want to say, Rebecca,” I tell her firmly.
“It’s not that I don’t want to tell you,” She says quickly.
“It’s just that I will have to explain a few things along with it. That is... my point earning methods and my... poison.”
