Chapter 22：Skills and Abilities (1/2)
All of Jomel's worries about the war were alleviated by the numbers of his new Soul-Beast.
The only downside is that Earth-Type moves or assaults are ineffective. And it's generally fine, especially the imbued move sets and Quick Swordplay movements.
Jomel recalled that a Soul-Beast of Legendary rank did not have those physique stats. Is this some kind of mythical or semi-mythical creature...? He has no idea, and the only thing that irritates him is that he can only do it as necessary because it is in the course of evolution.
The statistics of this guy were quite strong compared to the average legendary Soul-Beast so what will happen if it evolved..?
And then
*ping*
like he remembered something, this guy doesn't have a name. ”I will call you now, Motus..”
He nodded ”You are now Motus badger, which is a Latin word of emotion since you like extreme emotions..”
Jomel knew he only had one and half-day before he was sent to the battlefield. Luckily he didn't use anything about copying his soul beast crocodiles' hidden talent and one move.
So without further ado he chose to copy the Hidden Talent of Motus the Tenacious, he won't be killed by instant 1 hit K.O attack by this thing using the chance he got from the crocodile, And the second he copied the precognition to make his awareness and senses become stronger and develop a plan instantly.
Crocodile's Soul-Beast Room was still inhabited, considering the fact that Motus had most likely eaten it. He found that there is only a sliver of it intact.
The crocodile's ability was incredibly valuable to Jomel; it could pierce through any obstacle, but it would be a shame if it really disappeared. According to the knowledge he had, once a Soul-Beast died, their Soul would remain even if their body vanished into nothingness, which is why they are called Soul-Beast.
Then there's the spirit breaker.
He has no recollection of contracting, and Motus most likely swallowed him with its soul, since they are made with deep sorrow and despair, from a soul that died unwillingly. And that would be Francis, Jomel dazed for a long time remembering his promise to him.
Even though he can't be considered good or evil, he will still keep his promise since he knew the feeling and what's it like, of loving a little sister.
That's why he truly needs to go to war and gain strength so he can have the power to at least seek the little sister of Francis. But if he manages to find her, he decided that he will act as Francis to stop breaking his little sister's heart.
He knew that he would probably cause some complications inside him but he will never regret it.
*Thump* *Thump* *Thump*
”So this is a Soul-Beast Tamer, you have acquired two of my hidden skill... Congratulations...” A voice was heard when the heartbeat sounded.
”I thought you are Sleeping Motus..?”
”That's my name..?”
”Yes..”
”Not a bad one, I like it..”
”I'm glad you like it..”
”Rehehehe... I'm gonna go back to sleep now contractor..” Jomel suddenly look up and noticed that his surrounding has changed. It's fast but he can perceive every single detail around him and can come up with anything. His body felt now lighter and fit. So using his right arm he made a fist..
*Swoooofff* *pack!!*
The air was whipping at Jomel's fist, which made him happy, but he also needed time to get used to it.
He now recalls someone with the same skill in the past, which is why he chooses this Talent; it is an anime where alchemists are celebrated, and the person Jomel recalls is the guy who was a villain but an incredibly good swordsman with two swords that he is carrying in his left and right hands.
Let's talk about swordsmanship.
Jomel recalls that he is also capable of learning two movements.
Jomel deliberated for a long time before deciding on the Fast Swordplay and Corrosion movements.
Quick swordplay will make him a good sword wielder instantly and the Corrosion shakes poisons and imbued it to the user, which means that he will not have to worry about the Poison dangers from his surroundings.
After all the precognition ability is not that Over Powered he can still be hit and be blocked by any obstruction like it happened to the villain guy from that anime where he was pierced through on his blind spots by piercing the old man he is fighting with of the other one officer he is fighting with too.
”KAHAHAHA how are you Kidd-erghh...?” The tall Vietnamese Officer after Jomel is done allocating his abilities and strength.
”Decapitated arm and a tattoo with a dead color indicate that your Soul-Beast earlier died... is it..?” The tall man asks jomel seriously.
”Obviously..” Jomel replied, with an exasperated expression.
They observed him a minute and muttered ”Death of Soul-Beasts in the process of Taming, but can still act like its nothing... hmmm..”
The officer is convinced that this guy is Special.
A glint of red eyes appeared in his eyes. ”Mestroda scan him..”
The officer said without waiting for Jomel to react.
