An unexpected response

[Choose your skill:

> Reaper Scythe <Active> [3 seconds stun, Deals 1 magic damage every 1 lost health, 60 seconds cooldown, 200 MP]

> Dispersion <Passive> [Reflects 20% damage received to surroundings]

> Walrus Punch <Active> [Deals 350% critical damage at once, 20 seconds cooldown]

(Refresh skills x2)]

I was thinking about taking [Dispersion <Passive>], but I thought that I wouldn't receive much damage as I mostly run and shoot.

During the fight with the Kobold boss, it took me nearly a minute to end the battle. It just took too long, and I received 200 damage at the end.

[Walrus Punch <Active>] seemed like a good idea, but it might not be beneficial in the long run.

[Reaper Scythe <Active>] sounded like a game-changer. For example, if the enemy had 50% of his hp left, then [Reaper Scythe] would deal 50% of his hp as magical damage, instantly killing it if it had no magical resistance.

'Wait for a second, let's check my [Talent]'

[Talent:

Magus: 0.4-second cooldown. Your attacks have a 30% chance to activate a unit-target non-channeled active skill]

'Does this mean I have a 30% chance to activate [Reaper Scythe] when attacking?'

'If it works, I could spam [Reaper Scythe] as many times as I want. '

Even if the enemy has 1 million HP, as long as [Reaper Scythe] activates, his HP would decrease in a consecutive manner.

So I chose [Reaper Scythe <Active>]

[Skills:

> Split shot <Passive> [25% damage reduction, attacks 5 enemies at once] (Attack modifiers only apply to 1 main target)

> Feast <Passive> [Attacks deal 1% of the enemy's max health as pure damage and heal you for 4% of the enemy's max health]

> Reaper Scythe <Active> [3 seconds stun, Deals 1 magic damage every 1 lost health, 60 seconds cooldown, 200 MP]

'Well, I think I'll go home for now. I'm hungry and tired. But before that:'

[Shop]

[Smoke of Deceit (20 seconds invisibility until the enemy gets within 7-meter range) <50 gold>]

[Gold: 960] <-50>

I used the smoke of deceit to cast invisibility on myself, just in case the intern lady was still there and I did not want to get myself caught on camera.

After getting a safe distance from the lady, I went home and took a bath. Going to the kitchen to see what my mom's cooking, she suddenly said

"Dendi, what do you think of going back to school?"

I was shocked. I was exhausted, and I was not sure what to say. I was just too tired to think, not to mention despite the regeneration I had, I could still feel the lingering after-effects, some sort of trauma.

"No, mom, I don't think I can go to school for now."

We talked about things to do in the future while we were eating dinner. However, I felt terrible when she brought about a familiar topic.

"I got a call from some strangers a couple of hours ago. They said you tried to enter their property." My mom said.

"No, I left because they wouldn't let me in," I answered

When dinner was finished, I went back to my room. Right before I reached my room, there was a knock. I immediately opened the shop and bought myself some items to power myself up, just in case someone tried to mess with my family.

[Shop]

[Power Treads (Upgrades from Boots of Speed, +0.5 -> +0.7 m/s. -0.1s atk speed) <900 gold>]

[Gold: 60] <-900>

I was back in poverty, but it's okay. If some bollocks want to mess with my family just because I went to their so-called property, then I'd gladly put up a fight, even if I might die.

I went to answer the knock and what I saw were the intern-looking lady I saw back in the park and a tall, stern, suit-wearing male with combed neat brown hair. They both looked like J**f Bezuz subordinates because the clothing looked rich.

"Hello, are you Dendi? We met at the park this evening." the lady told me

"Sorry, I don't know who you are," I replied

"I apologize. That was rude of us. We are from the organization who manages the place you tried to visit this evening." The tall man with a deep voice said this while looking at his female colleague.

"We would like to talk about matters concerning the place if you don't mind." He continued.

I honestly think that this wouldn't be a bad idea. I'll just act dumb and try to get as much information as I can.

"Sure, but I'm not sure what you can talk with me about, hehe." I acted timidly, and the female colleague seemed irritated, just like what she looked like at the park.

I led them to the living room and gave them their seats. We sat there for a moment until the stern man opened his voice:

"Are you an awakened?"
