Chapter 6: Synthesizing Skills



Chapter 6: Synthesizing Skills

--- Chapter 6 ---

The next week.

[Ding! You have Sign In to the Miteer Auction House seven times in a row]

[Miteer Auction House couldn't be signed anymore]

This message appeared before Baek Ain's face abruptly, rendering him speechless. He could only smile in defeat and said, "Well, It's time to change places, I guess."

Baek Ain stayed in the Miteer Family Branch's compound for seven weeks and polished his cultivation to 3 Stars Dou Master Realm. It was a decent improvement because he didn't use any pills from Gu Xun'er.

He also gained several skills under the Shadow Guard's Instructor that Yafei assigned to train him.

Shadow Guard's Instructor is an assassin with peak Dou Grandmaster Cultivation. Even though she mostly wears a face mask and black cloak to cover her body, she is a beauty after some exchange they had.

However, she was also ruthless when teaching Baek Ain and showed no remorse for hitting him into a half-death state.

Her name is Lan Rou.

Anyway, back to the current focus.

Baek Ain stared at the system panel with a surprised look, wondering about a new place he could Sign In to get decent rewards. "I also haven't checked my last Sign In's reward."

Within these last weeks, Baek Ain obtained a ton of money, pills, Dou Qi Techniques, and some D-Grade Skills.

[Congratulations, Host]

[You have received 200.000 Gold Coins and 3x 3rd Tier: Beautifying Pills]

[You have received 150.000 Gold Coins and D-Grade Skill: Leap]

[You have received 469.000 Gold Coins and D-Grade Skill: Quicksteps]

[You have received 1x Rare Skin Mask and Xuan Class: Voice Changing Art]

[You have received Xuan Class: Seven Stars Blade Art and D-Grade Skill: Physical Strengthening]

[You have received 3rd Tier: Wind Leopard Light Armor and 10x 2nd Tier: Libido Enhancing Pills]

Baek Ain focused too much on his cultivation, forgetting to check the Sign In's reward a few times. "But god damn, I got some nice rewards from the Auction House. This place is a blessed location." He couldn't help but utter in excitement.

"Oh wow, still suspicious as always, you perverted system. Beautifying and Libido Enhancing Pills, eh? This teenager's body is horny most of the time, you know?" He added casually.

[...]

[The rewards are "literally." based on the location..]

"Yeah, yeah. Keep saying it." Baek Ain rolled his eyes. "As if I would believe those craps."

[...]

"I like how even you could be in disbelief."

"Open status."

Rubbing his chin, Baek Ain thought it was time to use Synthesize again because his Skill was filling up the Status Window too much. He also wanted to reduce his option as this was too excessive to be effective in battle.

"System, can you separate passive and active skills next time?"

[Okay]

Stretching his fingers, Baek Ain grinned and replied, "It's Synthesizing time."

"Nice." Baek Ain checked his newly synthesized skills and was satisfied because his arsenal became more reliable. He shouldn't have a problem defeating anyone on the Dou Master Realms.

He also could defeat 1 or 2 stars Dou Grandmaster with sneak attacks or when they were "suddenly." caught off guard.

Baek Ain jumped off his bed and saw the morning sky from the half-opened window. "This life is not as bad as I thought." He commented while changing his clothes to Shadow Guard Outfit.

Shadow Guard Group is a unit directly serving the Miteer Family or Primer Clans. They are professional information gatherers and intel, also as an assassin group.

Standing before a mirror, Baek Ain wore a black gi with an inner sleeve to cover his entire body. There are step-dampening shoes and utility belts with functional tools such as smoke bombs, grappling hooks, and poison-coated darts.

"Looks nice." Someone suddenly commented.

Baek Ain threw the poison darts in that direction and watched a woman with a mask catching them casually.

"Teacher, can you give me some privacy? Sister Fei isn't even this shameless." He sighed helplessly.

Lan Rou laughed in amusement and replied, "Then train your senses more. I've been standing extremely still here for five minutes and only revealed my presence when saying that compliment."

"Aih, you're still this weak after getting trained for seven weeks? Such an embarrassment."

'Just how high is her Stealth Skill?' Baek Ain wondered.

Even though Lan Rou criticized Baek Ain almost every day, she actually never met someone as talented as him. He absorbed all knowledge and skills she imparted like a sponge, using them skillfully.

The lady struck gold this time.

'I want Ain to stay humble because arrogance for a Shadow Guard is unnecessary, which is a success as his confidence and work ethic proved effective when I assessed his ability.' Lan Rou thought amusingly. She had never had this much fun in her entire life.

She smiled under her mask and added, "I heard you want to fight some magical beast from the lady. Are you confident in defeating the 2nd Tier Magical Beast?"

Baek Ain nodded and answered, "Yes, give me a chance."

"Follow me then."

Lan Rou disappeared from the room and made a grin appear on Baek Ain's face because he wanted to show her the newly synthesized skills.

Baek Ain used Silent Shadow Steps and chased after Lan Rou, seeing her figure one hundred meters away. Activating Hyper Jump, he created a crack in the ground and arrived at her side instantly.

Even with the step-dampening shoes, his Hyper Jump still caused a negligible lashing sound.

Lan Rou's eyes widened when sensing her student's presence beside her.

"Hello there, beautiful." Baek Ain cheekily said, which left her stunned for a moment.

"D-Don't call me that!" Lan Rou's voice sounded flustered as she increased her pace even more.

'Oh?' Baek Ain was astonished when hearing her flustered replies. Lan Rou always acts cool and aloof, but this is new.

Watching the instructor's back, Baek Ain chased after her with an amused expression. After all, she is one of the two people he truly cared for in this cruel world.

The other is Yafei.

'Yeah, fuck protagonist. I'm having fun here.' Baek Ain used Hyper Jump again.

...

...

Baek Ain and Lan Rou arrived at the outskirts of the beast forest, owned by the Miteer Family Branch. It's a hidden asset, so not many people know about this place. Yes, they are that rich.

Inside a valley, Lan Rou escorted Baek Ain into the forest and let him witness a vast land with a waterfall falling from afar.

"This valley is called Starday Valley. It's connected to the Hidden Beast Forest, where the shadow guards received their final training to be permanent members, and most recruits died here." Lan Rou explained calmly.

"Beyond that waterfall, you'll find a pathway connected to the Magical Beast Forest. However, the Ice Emperor sealed the path several years ago."

"Now there is only 1-3 Tiers Beast here."

"Are you ready to fight them?" She glanced at Baek Ain.

Baek Ain shrugged and answered, "We will see about that soon."
