9 Main Skill Seed (1/2)

Arthur is overjoyed by the reward. But his joy was broken instantly when he remembered something. Those three monsters wished for their freedom and they hoped for Arthur to help them achieve that.

If he chose a black skill now, then only one of the three will go free. There must be a way to free all of them.

While he was thinking, both of the black skills are excited. Whoever this human will pick, it will decide which of them is greater than the other. It was a long standing between the two of the black skill seeds.

Luckily, the third black skill seed did not present itself yet, they have time to entice the kid.

”Young one, if you want the power to protect yourself and the people that you love, then you and I are perfect match. The skills that I can give you will make you famous wherever you go.”The black skill seed with a female voice started the attack.

”If you want to be called the ultimate turtle, then yeah, of course you should pick her. But if you want to have the power to decimate your enemies instantly, then you can just pick me. Everyone will admire you.” The black skill seed viciously attacked back and made his argument.

Unknown by both of them, Arthur was still busy thinking of a way to help his friends, he never bothered to listen to their impressive speeches.

He stared directly at the two floating skill seeds and thought that something was wrong.

'How can I forget, there are three black skill seeds and two of them are present, so where is the other one?'

”I am happy that you will me give me such precious reward, but to my understanding, thereare three of you. Am I not allowed to see the third one?”

'Oh no'. Both of the skill seeds yelled simultaneously on the inside. There fears are starting to come true.

”You are allowed of course. But why don't you pick your rewards between us before you talk to him.” Bolton sounded very impatient but Arthur never noticed from his voice.

”It is alright. Can I request one of you to call the third one? It is alright if it gets too long, I can still wait for it.”

'I need all of them to help me free my friends. Maybe I can request all of the skill seeds instead of the previous reward. What if they agree but the other one will not, then it will be waste of my time. I need to risk it.'

”Enough you two. Stop playing around.” The third black skill seed fell down and floated in front of Arthur. The skill is an octagon shaped one but the perimeter of the black skill seed is colored gold. This black skill seed used a voice that can be associated with an old man but there is some archaic feeling about it.

”What do you want kid? I don't want you to waste my time and be very simple and direct with your words.”

”I want all of you three.” Arthur was flustered by the imposing attitude of the third skill seed that he immediately said this.

”Fine, I accept.” Surprisingly, it agreed.

”Hold on, Big Brother”.Both Thea and Bolton readily protested by this sudden judgement.
