Chapter 21 Edgar Frost(1)
While Vincent was inside the carriage along with Versys, his attention wasn't inside the carriage.
He was staring outside, through the window, seemingly admiringly the scene in his front as he rarely went out, in the past.
It wasn't like his mother denied him freedom, but he preferred to live an introverted lifestyle, as it was also the way he lived his last life before dying a pathetic death.
However, his body felt like he no longer needed that lifestyle after his evolution, he needed a new lifestyle since all didn't go well according to his plan. In his new world where people were cruel to each other, a world where people enslave and slaughter each other like animals, Vincent quivered at the thought of the inevitable.
He had seen his mother slain and beheaded a few people before, and he knew that it was quite a brutal scene. His mother never wanted him to see her cruel side, however, Vincent was curious as a child and decided to check what was going on when he heard a lot of commotion within their courtyard on a certain day, which he ended up seeing his mother cleaving off a group of prisoners' heads while she used to magic to make the heads of the others, explode.
Vincent remembered that his mom became worried after he saw her killing and she told him that the men were assassins that tried to infiltrate their house, but unfortunately, they were caught by her guards. The brutal scene hadn't left Vincent's mind since that day, he knew that he had always been shielded by his mom, he needed to get stronger. And the only way to get stronger was to utilize his system to the max, but what still confused Vincent was the stat that showed unlimited karma, he didn't know what effect the 'karma had. However, he knew that it wasn't a nice thing, either.
He was peeping through the window, staring at the passers-by while he admired the glory of their kingdom. Deact vale was one of the most popular and influential cities in the Graven kingdom, and his mom held quite a high position there.
Vincent was gazing at the demi-humans and humans who were passing, as their carriage was somewhat moving at a slow pace. When he looked down at his trousers, he could see a huge dent in his pants and a little pre-cum, as he had been imagining grabbing and pounding one of the elven women that were passing by.
He swallowed hard and tried to hide the huge bulge in his pants by tucking his legs together. Versys, who noticed Vincent's odd behavior, furrowed his eyes and asked;
"Vincent, is everything alright? You seem to be uncomfortable." Versys asked with a worried expression since it was his duty to ensure Vincent's safety.

Versys nodded his head and replied, "We'll soon be there, hold on a little longer" Versys said he closed his eyes and crossed his legs in a lotus position inside the carriage, and Vincent realized that he was trying to refill his mana core.
While Vincent was trying to kill boredom inside the carriage, a thought suddenly drifted towards his mind. "I haven't tested God's eyes, skill. I wonder how effective it is," Vincent thought, then, he mumbled; "Activate God's eyes."
Ding!
[God's eyes has been activated]
Immediately Vincent saw the notification, his eyes began to burn like a torch and glowed yellow, and an overwhelming headache descended upon him. Vincent clutched his head in pain and tried his best not to make any noise so that he wouldn't alarm Versys, who was refilling his mana core.
After a few seconds, the pain died down like it never existed, then, Vincent lifted his head. However, when Vincent raised his head and opened his eyes that were glowing yellow, unbeknownst to him, his vision wasn't the same as before. He could see everything around him in a white background and 3d image. He also felt that he could see everything within his surroundings and his eyes were sharp like that of a falcon, but he didn't know how far his eyes could reach as he was inside a moving carriage.
He noticed that when he stared at someone longer than 5 seconds, he could see through the person, thus, seeing the person's naked body. At the same time, staring at the same person for more than 10 seconds, enabled him to see their skeletal figure, like an x-ray scanner. He wanted to test out the skill much longer but he felt weird using it on Versys and the skill also drained his mental energy.
"Deactivate God's eyes," Vincent muttered.
Ding!
[God's eyes deactivated]
Immediately his vision returned to normal, Vincent wiped the beads of sweat, rolling on his forehead and he thought inwardly; "Using this skill takes a toll on my mental strength which the system didn't mention, I guess nothing comes for free. And I also need to learn how to use God's eyes properly, I'll do that when I'm in an open field. But to think, why will that god give me this skill as a gift, what does he want in return? Sigh, so many things about this system are still unclear to me." Vincent thought and he shook his head.
Abruptly, the carriage suddenly came to a halt, and the cringe voice of the golem sounded.
"We have arrived at the destination, passengers." The golem uttered and went into a stale mode.
At the same time, Versys opened his eyes and glanced towards Vincent.
"Vincent, we have arrived at the destination, you will enter that building that is painted red, I can't follow you inside for some reason. However, if you are in trouble, tap on this token." Versys said and he handed Vincent a brown token with some strange runes carved on it.
Vincent nodded his head and collected the token from Versys before alighting from the carriage.
Vincent put the token inside his pocket and walked towards a large building that was painted red, the building looked like a small castle, making Vincent wonder who his master was.
