CHAPTER 22: On the run part 3

Author note: sorry for not being able to post previously. I was busy with school tests. I have changed the grades of the skills David got. I realized I made them too weak. So now I have increased them to be more accurate to his world.

-----

David inspects the 8 skills. He has received Golem creation[A], Force fist combo[A], Raigin slash[A], Frost shad impact[A], Fallen sparrow[A], Battle frenzy[A], Quick shot[A], Shock blot[A]. David looks at these skills and smiles. Amarok nods in satisfaction these are very decent skills. Malin looks at David with disgust. She can only feel sorry for his future enemies. David places everything else on the side. Right now he needs to look at the skills. The other stuff will be for the end. Next David opens the legendary treasure chests. Upon being opened, a massive flash of golden light is released from the chest. They are 5 chests in total.

He receives 10000000 gold coins and 100 items. Amaroks body immediately trembles. Just by sensing the energy released by these items he is left in such a state. Amarok gazes into the chests and he almost has a heart attack. He snaps his fingers and a barrier is created around them. "David you need to be careful these items are incredibly powerful. The energy released from them will spread a large distance. It will attract unwanted attention," Amarok says in concern. David nods in response he knows that such items release a large amount of energy. David, Amarok, and Malin look at the chest's content.

Of these one hundred items most are mythic grade. 50 of them are materials, 5 are skill crystals, 15 are equipment, 10 are scrolls, 2 are treasure maps, 8 are blueprints, 5 are skill books, 2 are potion crates and the last 3 are fruits. Amaroks body begins trembling. Seeing all these treasures leave him in a chaotic state. Some of the things in front of him are things that not even his family's treasury can possess. David does not have an inspection skill, so he can't immediately see their stats. All items from epic grade and above require inspection skills just to see their basic information. But David has a title that is better than any inspection skill in this universe.

David knows that the items are things that even beings like Amarok would fight for. If he and Amarok did not have a contract, David is sure that his head would be on the ground. Amarok is not evil. But when it comes to anything that would benefit his family. This man will do anything for his family and friends. David and Amarok have not yet reached that level in their relationship. " David I think it's best if you stop now. Leave the other reward for when you are alone. Even if you and this werewolf have a contract. I am sure he will kill you if you produce anything above the mythic grade,"

Malin says in concern. She has already cloaked the grade of the 10 Demi-god-grade items that appeared from the chest and surprisingly all of them were the equipment this time. She even hid the presence of some other materials that would be too tempting for Amarok. David realizes that what Malin says is true. Although he wants to trust Amarok, he knows that if anything too precious appears Amarok will risk the consequences of breaking their contract by force. The price for breaking a contract by force is that the violator will lose all their magical energy and they will return to tier 0 with no possibility of ever getting stronger again.

All their mana channels and veins will be destroyed from their root. Leaving nothing to heal. All the spirit energy veins, channels, and the core will also face the same consequences. If the person is unable to withstand this, they may die in the process. Amarok sees that David does not proceed to take anything else out. He lets out a silent sigh. He did not know if he could control his greed if David pulled out anything more than this. He likes David and thinks he's a good child. It would leave a bad taste in his mouth if he ever killed David due to his greed. Amarok is also still fearful of the scent of the gods on David.

This time Amarok can smell two new scents that have similar godly properties. The thought that David may be connected to 5 gods makes him shiver. It was this thought that stopped him from killing David on instinct. Amarok has faced many challenges in his life where he developed an instinct to kill others for his own and his family's benefit. David proceeds to inspect all the skills he has received so far. From lowest to highest the skills are.

As David inspects the skills he is left with a bright smile on his face. " Hahahaha!" David begins laughing. Amarok looks at the boy with a slight smile. Even though he can't see all the information about the skills. But with his senses and years of experience, he can tell that they are very powerful. David proceeds to then inspect the rest of his spoils. In total, he received 10802200 gold from the chest and 370 gold from robbing Jonathan. He quickly puts everything in his inventory so he can keep them safe as he continues to inspect him. Amarok notices how David stores the loot in his inventory.

He can only let out a sad sigh. He realizes that Davis must have noticed his reactions to the loot. Now he is taking precautions around him. Amarok feels guilt and shame rise in his heart. This young boy that used to look at him with some fear and admiration now looks at him with disappointment and suspicion. Amarok felt like defending himself, but he knows that whatever he may say may only be perceived as an excuse. So he decides to stay quiet as David inspects the loot from his inventory. He decides to inspect the scrolls.

In AKO and the whole universe. Equipment and scrolls are separated by grades and tiers. While materials are only separated by grades. Low-tired worlds like Ethan can only produce materials of bronze grade at max. While worlds like Everest can create materials of demi-god grade at max. Due to David being tier 0 the scrolls he has obtained are also tier 0. David has 25 scrolls, 3 are platinum, 5 are diamond, 7 are legendary and 10 are mythic. Scrolls are consumables that can activate a magic spell for free. Their uses can vary from teleportation to firing blots of lightning. They are very popular with all classes, especially physical classes.

David inspects all of them and he realizes that the only ones that will be useful to him will be the legendary and mythic scrolls. As for the rest, he may save them for his family or use them for special trades with players or NPCs. The good thing about scrolls is that from legendary grade and above they are no longer consumables.
