Chapter 194 - Shadow Nightmare Special Card

After I let Saber enter the cave I asked him to find and also fight the monster.

Sabre was a little careful but he couldn't control his pride and after some time he shouted," monster if you have the courage then fight me".

Deep inside the cave a shadow that was sleeping opened its blood-red eyes and looked towards the source of sound and then said to himself," it's good that the human delivered himself to the door, now I don't need to search for food".

Then he blended in the shadow and rushed towards Saber.

While Saber looked at me and then asked me doubtfully," boss is there a monster here as I don't think there is one".

I said," that because you are too careless. And who stands on the door of the cave and shout for a monster".

Sabre said," boss if I go inside then maybe the monster would sneak attack on me".

I then looked at Saber and said," then what is the use of eye crystal that I gave you. Are you using it for the show".

Sabre was speechless and seeing this I said," okay go inside and defeat the monster".

Sabre shivered and then slowly walked inside the cave.

While I looked at Alan and said," prepare food here. The next day we will head towards base 5".

After giving the instructions I opened the eye crystal and watched the cave as I felt a creepy feeling coming from inside the cave.

Sabre who was inside the cave became afraid as the cave was too quiet. Then he lighted up a small torch. But a gust of wind passed by and then the torch blew up.

Looking at the scene Saber felt afraid and then he decided to rush out of the cave.

Just as he was going to rush out, he felt like something was pulling him from behind. So he used iceball skills that froze the rocks behind. 

Sabre also broke free and then rushed out of the cave and by the time he reached our place he saw his pant was torn.

But he didn't care about it and after walking out of the cave he came and said," boss I admit defeat. You go and solve the monster".

I nodded my head and said," it's okay Saber and from next time don't try to fight any monster head-on. Try to use your brains a little or you could also ask for help from your guild members but your pride didn't allow you to do so. So next time don't be so proud".

As I walked toward the cave I heard the Black voice in my head," Robin use the black card. It will trap the Shadow Nightmare monster inside. It's a very special existence that can be used for assassination so don't miss the opportunity".

Listening to Black words I summoned a black card and then I heard Black saying, "leave next thing to me".

Then he took control over the body and then threw the card and after that, the black card returned in an instant. Then Black moved back to card space.

While I looked at the Black Card in my hand in daze.

SHADOW NIGHTMARE ( SPECIAL CARD) (LVL. 1)

-USE 20,000 MANA POINTS TO USE THE MONSTER SKILLS FOR AN HOUR. FOR EACH HOUR NEED TO CONSUME 10,000 MANA POINTS TO USE THE SKILL.

- HAS SKILLS SHADOW BLENDING, SHADOW TELEPORT, SHADOW MANIPULATION, SHADOW INVISIBLE.

- SHADOW BLENDING- YOUR BODY CAN DISAPPEAR INTO SHADOW.

- SHADOW TELEPORT- YOU CAN TELEPORT IN SHADOWS YOU SEE WITHIN 200 METERS OF RANGE.

- SHADOW MANIPULATION- YOU CAN CONTROL SHADOWS LIKE A PART OF YOUR BODY. THE RANGE OF THE SKILL IS WITHIN 20 METERS.

- SHADOW INVISIBLE- USE THIS SKILL TO HIDE YOUR EXISTENCE. MOSTER ABOVE 20 LEVELS CANT SENSE YOUR EXISTENCE.

THIS CARD CAN BE UPGRADED BUT YOU NEED TO KILL MONSTER IN THIS FORM. AFTER KILLING THE ENEMIES YOU WILL ABSORB SHADOW.

CURRENTLY (0/100) FOR THE NEXT UPGRADE.

Looking at the card attributes I was stunned especially there were four skills and they were very overpowered. Especially the card could be upgraded by killing the enemies in this form. Although it doesn't look too terrifying once the card abilities are upgraded then it would become a killer move. Now it's level one and it gave me abilities to cross twenty levels and assassinate the enemies.

Doesn't it make you feel overpowered especially the shadow manipulation, as think about it if you control the shadow to attack the enemy then it would be very helpful? Although the range is still small, it is still level 1 and if I continue to level it up then sooner I will be able to make the card very strong.

Thinking about it I was excited while Sabre commented from the side," boss aren't you going to hunt the monster".

I smiled at Saber and said," I have already solved the monster, so Saber it's time to fulfil the bet".

Sabre shouted," how could it be possible as I didn't see you going inside and fighting", saying so he denied it. While other guild members were also suspicious, except for Freya, Fay, Fiona and Albert.

Looking at this I said," I will show you a new trick", saying so I used the special card Shadow Nightmare. 

Then my body disappeared inside the shadow. And I used shadow manipulation to bind the hand and legs of Saber and I came out from behind Saber. 

Seeing the scene Saber felt a chill down his spine and then Lina said, " Robin what type of skill are you using".

I looked at her and said," this I a new skill I learnt after killing the monster. By the way, Lina give me your knife".

Lina handed me her knife while when Saber show the sharp glow he felt chill and he couldn't help crying," boss spare me, I will never act arrogantly again".

I smiled at him and said," Saber you need to learn a lesson and it could only be experienced when something bad happens", saying so I took the knife and began to shave Saber's head. 

I only shaved in the middle of his head and then after I was done, Sabre felt like his words and pride always made him trouble so he needed to control it in any way. Thinking about it he decided to change his behaviour or else he felt someday his whole body would be shaved. 

And also after shaving Sabers' head I released the shadow chains from Sabre body.

Then I tried using several abilities and when I felt I could use space and also could summon the cards. It made me more ecstatic as with mana potions I could fight forever or even maintain this state.

Till now I haven't burned a card skill as I felt burning these card skills will be useless as later more powerful skills my team members would learn and burn skills at that time would be better than now.

Now I needed to find a way to increase the level of the special card and also either go and level up at base 5 dungeon or else go to the holy city to defend it. But I felt going to Holy City to fight the monster would give us a chance to fight a war. But as I learnt the news from Richard that level 60 is just used as cannon fodder. So I needed to increase my level to at least level 80 or 90. And it would take at least three weeks to level up if we levelled up on our own. But if Richard and other high-level members help us level up then it would take three days at most. And then we can use the rest of the week to adapt to the increase in strength.

So while I was thinking about it Ava came to me and said," Robin let's go and eat".

I nodded my head and then walked with her and then after eating the food I told my thoughts to Richard.

After listening to my words Richard said," brother we can't help you now, but after you cross level 100 then only can we help you".

Now it's my time to be puzzled but I nodded my head and then I decided not to talk about it as after reaching base 5, everything would be clear.

Then I walked back to my tent and decided to rest.

While the girls were chatting with each other and Freya said," sister Fiona do you think that Robin abilities are too mysterious".

Fiona nodded her head and said," of course, he is. Don't you know that Albert is level 250 is just a butler sent to watch Robin. He must be someone from outside the wasteland".

Freya said," yes, I know about it, but that black card gave me a feeling as I have read about it somewhere".

Fiona said," sister you have read countless books and you need to remember a particular thing then it would take some time for you to remember".

Freya said," of course, it was the only thing I could do to pass time".

Fay then came and then asked," mom, aunt what are you talking about?".

Looking at Fay, Freya and Fiona changed the topics and began to talk and laugh.. But they didn't see that in Freya's eyes there was a trace of confusion.
