chap 1

Skill: The very definition of the art of action, randomly awarding you with improvement in performance after certain archivements or other clear conditions. There are four types of skills strenghen, revelation, title and treason.

Afriras the goddess or devil, depending of the religion, this whole system to allow humans to rule over the world.

This was the that I think is most plausible until now. Everyone is born with a skill but because of the risk it is only possible to observe the status until the age of 10. Sometimes it is not really nessesary as it is visible but for me I was forced to visit the church. Also I am not a noble I do get a private check up of the status to lower the risk of crippling. The private check up didn't requires flesh of an person but instead a few drops of blood. The blood is used to revitalize dragon flesh. Like in the other check up the flesh will then be placed in a magic circle that displays all skills in the holy-demonic language, aka ancient language. A priest must then decipher it. If you get lucky then your skill is from the revelation type that gives you knowledge about the funktion.

Yeah that is were my day starts... If I could stand up. Yesterday, I did fell asleep on the wrong side and now I do not have any feeling in my leg. As I sit up in the bed I could hear the door. Before I could answer I could see the handle go down and hear the shrill sound of not oiled joints. The door opened wide and revealed a young man in a black suit. He lightly bowed down showing the top of his dark red-brownish hair that was neatly comped. His short hair had a clear line in the middle but they miraculously didn't fall into his face. When he got back up his green eyes instantly focused at a spot on the wall right behind me.

"Master, you must get up or you will miss your appointment in the church."

Also he is very bad with other people he can basically do everything wich is reflected through his skill >perfect servant: super 3<. If I won't have a good skill, then he is the first who gets to feel my rage as his skill is definitely to strong. As long as his master demands it he can even survive mortal wounds and defeat other up to twenty percent stronger upfront. But most terrifying is that he magically always knows what I want to eat... Now that I think about it, it seems that everyone in the mansion knows it.

"Swiller, help me to get up. My leg got paralyzed."

Jarwis Swiller did grab my arm and helped me to get on my feet on the most rough way I could imagine. That's what you get when you hire someone with probably a socal fear to serve you in the most private way the contract allowed. Yes, in the contract is recorded that he isn't forced to touch me unless I have health problems like for example an unusable leg.

While I cursed him for his good looks and for forcing me on my feet I got ready to go to the church.

(...)

I think you will find the part of me performing the ritual boring so I skipped it. Or more like I won't show you willingly how I have pain in my novel.

Well to tell the truth the waiting time for deciphering is longer then normal. That can only mean that my skill is either of the super tier and higher, of the treason type or even entirely new skills. Treason type skills don't have a specific effect and even the same skill varies between the individuals. It is said that each treason skill is a class above other skills. The classes of skills are normal, good, super, extraordinarily, holy-demonic and god. With every five levels your skill gets a class up or is it six?

"Excuse me mister, we have finished the decryption. Can you please come with me, there is something to discuss."

Well that was obvious otherwise you wouldn't hear my story. I sit down and get a tee from Swiller. On my opposite side sits an old man with grey hair and brown eyes. The high priest of the royal palace as well as the bishop of the whole country. Wait, why is Markus Green here? Well behind him is the old lady that brought us to the room. She has a huge scar besides her ear and it disrupts her hair groth. She was known as the strongest war healer of the church 12 years ago. Then the current top bishop took this title and he ended the war single handed. She on the other hand retired and became the high priest in this city.

The hierarchy is servant, nun/monk, prist, great nun/monk, high prist, bishop and high bishop. Nuns/Monks excell in the physical cultivation while priests specialize in healing, magic arrays and water magic. If they want to become great/high then both must learn the ancient language until they can decipher ancient language. As some could build an array of magic circles with this knowledge priest are regarded higher even though from the abilities alone it should be the other way around. To become a bishop one must learn both ways of becoming clean.

Or to say it in other words: they are strong.

"You are Adel right?"

"yes" Who else did you order here?

"I will say it straight, your status is different to any other I came across. First and foremost this skill >infinity: paper 1< was once used by the angel Meticolous. We don't know what it can do but the paper in it probably is the class. I think it's because it is from an holy existence it created something lower then normal. But there are other things we need to adress. Before that here is the rest of your status."

He gave me a paper. On it were written >black cat, harbor of misfortune: extraordinarily 1<, >infinity: paper 1<, >ancient magic perception: normal 1<, >status limit: normal 1< and >perception: normal 1<

"The ancient magic perception is something alike to what use in the church. Perception is something like improved hearing. Status limiter and black cat, harbor of misfortune is entirely new as a status. Nonetheless you have only two possibilities for the future. One you can live in seclusion or you work under the church. We can't allow to let the knowledge about ancient language go to waste."

That was definitely a threat.

"I think being in seclusion is fine by me, my father is the minister of finance in the royal palace. With this I can do much more then you think." Also my father is a commoner and not a noble he was someone that had the ability to climb up the structure of unfairness and become a minister directly under the king. Nonetheless this is a bluff as I want a better deal.

"I see that you are quick-witted. Ok how about that you will study directly under both of us and you can work as an adventurer. In return you won't use infinity nor give away anything about ancient magic."

That is a huge deal. The current high bishop is the kid of these two and as such her strengh came from learning under them. Also as an adventurer you gain access to every country and work in missions. That means freedom in contrast to working for the church or living in seclusion.

"ok I accept"
