15 Reward 1

"I'll get straight to the point, Talis boy, you're in a bit of a pickle," Heimer said with a serious tone.

"The council deemed you to be a dangerous individual and to have you arrested, indefinitely." Heimer sighs, this is the dark side of PiltOver, since the kingdom is ruled by the council, if the majority wants an order to be enforced, the remaining members wouldn't be able to do anything about it. Although Heimer is an elder member, his opinions were invalid when he tried to fight for Jayce.

"I'm here today, only representing myself, not as the genius inventor of PiltOver or the member of the council, but as your friend, Heimerdinger." Indeed, since he was part of the minority, who fought for Jayce's right, the council didn't want him to get near the boy, but the genius himself threatened the people in there, saying he would retire and burn down the laboratory if they didn't comply to this request. The council got scared shitless, so they reluctantly complied with him.

"Since you're a citizen of the kingdom, they deemed you as their property, so if they want to torture or kill you, no one could do anything about it." Another sigh was released.

"I and the council know that you have secrets within you, and they want to get their hands on that power. I want you to get out of the kingdom." Heimer said. The council had already investigated Jayce and his background. A 2-year-old child, capable of wielding the power of Arcane, no matter how bizarre this world is, Jayce's situation is very abnormal.

"So, as you can see, the situation is not fav-…. Boy, are you listening?" Heimer asked, but he didn't get a reply.

"Boy?, BOY!." He yells, spits flew out of his mouth, although Jayce is staring at him; his focus was not there at all! What an ungrateful brat!! Here he was, risking his career for the kid but the brat is not even paying attention to him!

"Ugh, what, oh yes yes, the situation is very bad indeed," Jayce replied in a serious tone, pretending as if he was contemplating the situation. Oh, he was contemplating all right, but not at the professor, he was looking at the transparent screen in front of him, with shiny eyes!

'DING! Congratulations player, Caitlyn impressions of you have changed for the better. Reward: Hito-Hito no mi.

'DING! Congratulations, player, you have successfully ensured the safety of Ximena and Caitlyn. Reward: Haoshoku: beginner.

'DING! Congratulations, player, due to your good ability to judge the situation, you avoided a calamity, and successfully retreated to the capital. Reward: +1 Mythical Pet Summon. [AN: I change Pokémon to pet, as it's more convenient, it doesn't matter as there is not Mythical Pokémon anyways 😊.]

'DING! Due to player overusing his stamina, affecting your health and potential, the system will exchange 5 years of your life span to negate the side effects, Yes No.

'DING! Congratulations, player, you have achieved a hidden achievement, Afterlife; Be in a near-death state, bordering between life and death. Reward: Chapter 2 of Genesis.

A series of notifications keep popping up in his head, making it extremely difficult to pay attention to Heimerdinger. Even though he could hear something about him being arrested and having to flee, he doesn't care; as long his mother is safe, he doesn't care even if he must go through hell. He just survived a death scenario, even got a reward for it, what could be worse than death? So, with the thought, Jayce's ignored the rambling midget and focused on his system.

First is the Hito-Hito no mi, it's the reward for the first option; Leave a good impression of you to Caitlyn.

'Weird, I clearly picked the second option.' Yes, Jayce is confused. Although he picks the second option, the system rewards him with the first one's.

'DING! Replying to player, you were told to pick one of the followed options, but due to the unique challenge, you fulfilled one of the requirements; therefore, getting the reward for the challenge.' The cold-voiced system replied.

'So that's how it is.' Jayce figured it out, because this challenge is unique, even though he picks the second option, he still fulfilled the requirement of the first; but if he fulfills both the requirements for the challenge, he will get that specific challenge's reward only.

The fruit is basically useless for him, he has already consumed the Gura-Gura no mi, his body won't allow him to take a second one. He doesn't have the unique body of BlackBeard, who can consume multiple devil fruits. So, he put that aside and moved on to the other notifications.

'Haoshoku!' Jayce mentally exclaimed, how could he not be excited. Back in the anime, One Piece, this power is deemed to be the most broken and OP ability. Only people that can fulfill the hidden requirements are allowed to wield this power, and they are all famous characters in the anime, unlike those cannon fodders.

'Haoshoku: beginner.'

'Description: A special aura that only those possessing characteristics fitting that of a "King."

Usage:

-Beings lower than your rank: 100% chance of getting unconscious.

-Beings at your rank: 100% chance of getting stun, 50% of getting unconscious; reminder: those that possess a characteristic of a king cannot be unconscious.

-Beings above your rank: 5% chance of getting stun, 0.1% of getting unconscious; reminder: unapplicable to those who possess a characteristic of a king.

[A/N: Spoilers: League of Legend champions all have a "king" characteristic. 😛 .]

Cost: Depending on range and duration. (500 stamina/mile, 250 stamina/ min.)

'Wow, it's so overpowered.' Jayce is amazed by the ability. Although he knew it would be strong, he didn't expect it to be this overwhelming. He can knock all his enemies that are below his rank. Those at his rank get a 100% chance of being stun, stun! In a life and death battle, a second can determine a battle, imagine them getting stunned, he would have all the time in this world to finish them off, as long his stamina is sufficient. As for those above his ranks, if he can knock them out unconscious, then great but he is already satisfied with having a chance to stun them. One had to know that fighting a person with a higher rank is extremely hard. Usually, the only option is to flee.
