Scarlet

I quickly open up my status and allocate 4 points to mental, 1 to magical, and 1 to physical before going to the skills store and purchasing both Predator V and Recharge. Then I focus on my status again to take in the changes with a grin.

Now with Predator V, my boost in stats against others at a higher level than myself is ten percent higher than before! At a whole 30%!

Its just ridiculous to see so many legendary skills at level 38, Tar mutters, sounding like he really isnt sure how to take it. And theyre all passive skills too

That part catches my attention.

Are passive skills harder to get than active ones or something?

Passive skills in general are rarer to unlock since theyre always active and dont require any cost to use them, Tar explains, still sounding winded from seeing my status even if he already knew about my skills beforehand.

Interesting. And I have three legendary passive skills. Quite a nice feat there, if I do say so myself.L1tLagoon witnessed the first publication of this chapter on Ñøv€l--B1n.

And your pride is showing again, Tar mutters.

Without wasting any time, I turn to Denise and ask, Is your driver still here? And she quickly nods her head, clearly sensing my urgency. Then can he take us to the outer station closest to our position?

She nods again before typing away at her own terminal as we all begin walking in the direction of the garage.

You know they may not be there, right? Tar asks, prompting me to move my arm in front of me and begin navigating to my contacts where I then call Belles phone. But the thing just rings. And rings. And rings. And no one ever picks up.

If Belle were actually safe and outside of a Fracture, she wouldve picked up. Shes the type of person who is strict about keeping all manners of contact open during an emergency. So the only reason why she wouldnt be able to pick up is if she were in a Fracture, where a normal phone cant get service through the barrier.

Oh, Tar mutters.

I continue walking with Denise and the others towards the vehicle, but right when were about to get in, I say, You all dont have to help me if you dont- Emily puts her finger on my lips to shut me up.

I blink in surprise at her actions, only for her to say, Not only is this our job, but I honestly want to help you help your friends. So shut up and get in the vehicle. She then pushes me inside, leaving me sitting in the limo staring blankly at the wall in shock. And its not just me either, because when the others get in, I find both Denise and Michael looking at Emily as if shed grown a third head. Yes. Third. Because were skipping the second altogether.

Well, at least her actions managed to snap you out of that dark attitude you were in at least a little bit, Tar says, making my eyes narrow slightly, only for me to turn around to look at Denise as she says, Driver, step on it!

Actually, come to think of it, I wonder where her driver was during the Fracture?

Dont tell me he was in the limo the entire time?

The vehicle immediately begins driving, passing through the garage door and into the air-street that currently has very little if any traffic, not caring of my internal question.
