"Well I guess I choose assassin" I speak out loud
[ASSASSIN CLASS HAS BEEN CHOSEN]
[NEW SKILLS HAVE BEEN ADDED TO SKILL MENU]
[CHOOSE STARTER WEAPON]
(DAGGERS)(ASSASSIN'S HIDDEN BLADES)(SHORT SWORD)
[NOTE:STARTER WEAPONS ARE INDESTRUCTIBLE AND SOUL BOUND]
'Well who wouldn't choose the assassin's hidden blades'
I think of choosing assassin's hidden blades and with a flash the assassin's hidden blades from assassin's creed appear on each of my wrists.
I flick my wrists a few times popping the blade in and out to get used to the feeling.
"Remember Romeo 'nothing is true, everything is permitted' hahahaha" I start laughing my ass off as I say the famous line.
After calming down I think 'skills' and my skill menu shows up

"Holy shit shadow walk and plunder are overpowered"
"If I went on a Killing spree wouldn't I become overpowered fast… no thinking about it the amount of stats I would gain from a civilian would be 1 or 2 stats at most so not worth it going by power levels in this world if my weak ass already has 5 stats in all categories, plus I don't don't want to be a psychopath"
"and nothing even needs to be said about Shadow walk that would just be overpowered at max level"
As I'm talking to my self I hear footsteps coming up the stairs and down the hallway
[SKILL LEVEL INCREASE]
"huh neat"
"Romeo are you up" I hear the voice of my father Macao, his voice is weak and scratchy compared to what I remember.
I close the screen
'he must have been crying,well I can't blame him we basically lost out family'
"ya dad I'm up, just getting dressed" I respond in my normal voice
'I won't pretend to be sad as I know they aren't gone forever but I won't be to happy either or else they will all think I'm insane'
hearing my normal voice he thinks I must not want to talk about what happened so he responds with
"ok I'm heading to the guild to check on everyone if you need anything just come to the guild"
"sure thing dad I come over later"
"ok bye son love you"
"bye dad love you too"
with that I hear him walk away and out of the house
[SKILL LEVEL INCREASE]
"ok system pull up my skills again

"this is awesome"
'map' I think
and a huge map of the world appears unfortunately it is all blurry and covered in fog
"well that's so helpful" I chuckle
I could zoom in and out on the map and I found Magnolia and notice a eagle shape above the cathedral
"well I suppose to the cathedral first"
I close the screen and start to get dressed I put on black flexible jeans and a white long sleeve shirt to hide the hidden blades and I throw a black hoodie on that has a golden dragon embroidery on the the sleeve. I looked badass if I do say so myself.
"alright let's work on parkour today and get over to the cathedral then the guild"
I jumped out my window and onto the tree beside my window I almost fall out of the tree for jumping to far but I just catch myself
[SKILL LEVEL INCREASE]
"ok system hide notifications unless I ask for them"
[AFFIRMATIVE CHANGING SETTINGS]
'now that's out of the way onwards'
I climb the tree and hop up onto the roof I jump to the next roof and bend my knees slightly as to not make any sound
I stumbled and fell on my face I immediately got into a crouching position so no one would see me I look around and see that no one saw me, I continue to jump from building to building getting faster, more skillfully and quieter
by the time I reach the cathedral I was as quiet and quick as a mouse on the roofs and somehow avoided been seen or atleast called out
now for the hard part climbing a cathedral without being called a heretic or getting attacked
I decided to sit and watch the guard rotation for an hour once I finished analysing their pattern I looked for the best way up and I found cracks in the wall that led straight to the top
and now I was ready to go when the guards were all away and no one was watching I jumped from the roof I was on and sprinted as hard as I could without making a sound and jumped up the side of the cathedral and grabbed onto a Crack in the wall I started climbing with the path I saw earlier
it was hard at first but them I got the hang of it and climbed all the way to the highest point and when I stood fully I couldn't believe the view I felt as though I could reach the sun, I could see everything as though I hadn't seen before
"this town is what I will protect at all costs"
