Chapter 140 - BLUE DOORS REWARDS (II) (1/2)

”AS I've said earlier, your team will receive an extra reward for perfectly clearing the blue door,” the King said after a while.

The King clapped once and six Skill Books appeared out of thin air.  Two of those were in front of Luo Yan.  The remaining four were also divided between Shen Ji Yun and Uriel.

”Choose one of the two Skill Books in front of you and that would be your extra reward,” the King continued.

And here Luo Yan thought the King would give them two Skill Books each.  He should have known this guy wouldn't be that generous.  He looked at the two Skill Books in front.  Both looked exactly the same.  Luo Yan didn't think much and just picked the one on the left.

The moment he did, it turned into a small ball of light and flew straight at him.  It entered the very center of his forehead and a bunch of information immediately appeared in his mind.

At first, it was like a replay of the dance he performed at the banquet.  It played inside his head from start to finish.  Then suddenly, he felt like every movement in the dance was embedded in his muscles.  Almost as if even without music, he could perform it perfectly.  Seeing how things were going, he suddenly had a bad hunch.  This bad hunch was confirmed when the screen with the skill's information appeared in front of him.

[Healing Dance]

- Dance for 30 seconds and you could cure any status ailments (i.e. paralysis, poison, etc.) of any friendly party within a 1-meter radius.  Dance for a continuous minute and you could completely restore the HP of all friendly parties within the same radius.

- The vicinity of its effect would increase by half a meter as the skill's level also increased.

Level: 1 (Max – 10)

Cool Down: 3 minutes

Luo Yan stared at the screen for a good second before his brain registered what he just read.  Shit.  What the hell was this?  He already thought that that dancing experience would end after they got out of the blue door.  But now, it even followed him out?  Could he return this and choose the other Skill Book?

And what's with this Healing Dance anyway?  He's an Assassin!  Not a Priest or a Bard.  Why should he have a healing skill?  Seriously, he's at the point where he suspected that the King was actually digging a pit for him to jump in.

”What's wrong?” Shen Ji Yun asked when he noticed that the rabbit's expression was a bit wrong.  ”You didn't like the skill you got?  Was it not useful?”

Oh, it's useful alright.  After all, an Assassin having a healing skill was pretty uncommon.  Luo Yan just refused to dance in front of a bunch of other players.  It felt like he would lose face if he did.  Especially if the dance was the one that he did during the banquet.  It wouldn't be too embarrassing if he was a girl.  But doing those movements when he's clearly a guy was just too much for him.

He swore, he'd never use this skill unless it's necessary for him to do so.

”It's okay,” he said, barely containing the smile on his face.  ”How about the skill Brother YUN got?”

”It's alright.”

Shen Ji Yun didn't feel much since almost all his skills were powerful, some even over the top.  But he did appreciate this extra reward.  The King would never give out a weak and useless skill as a reward.  Luo Yan was just starting.  Acc.u.mulating good skills was good for any new players like him.

Duan Yu was also satisfied with the skill he got.  It's quite a powerful healing skill.  A bit related to the role he played in the blue door.  Now the verbal abuse he experienced under the hands of the elf, not to mention the dog food he was forced to eat, seemed not so bad anymore.

Luo Yan turned to the King.  ”Can we leave now, Your Majesty?” he asked, almost biting out the last part.  After that dancing skill, he truly didn't want to see the King's face right now.

”There's still one thing I need to give,” the King said.

He snapped his fingers once again and a small transparent globe with some kind of ancient building inside appeared in front of Luo Yan.  Luo Yan squinted his eyes at the building, because it looked eerily familiar.  Like he had seen it before.  Then something clicked in his brain.  He hadn't just seen this before, he's been in it just a few hours ago.
