Chapter 20

Percy begged his dad to bring Grover here, and the moment he did the Satyr jumped at Percy and began to hit him across the face with his reeds screaming, 'you left me there you son of a bitch! I nearly got forced into becoming a gigolo to pay the motel bills!'

After Percy managed to calm the Satyr down he brought him back to camp after saying bye to his dad, who had a smirk on his face that pissed Percy off for some reason.

The next day Percy found himself inside the war room in the Big House with the head of every cabin member there along with Chiron as their stand in for their camp counselor, Dionysus was still being scolded by Zeus, something Percy relished hearing.

"So what have you called this meeting seaweed brain?" Clarisse asked as she cleaned her fingernails with her dagger.

"Yeah I thought we might just get a few days off before we had to start planning for war," Travis complained as his brother Connor nodded in agreement, the two were now the heads of the Hermes cabin replacing Luke.

"I wish we could but something has come up. When Grove, Luke and I went on our quest we came across a society of mercenaries, deadly, powerful mercenaries. I want to move on this group before Luke does and get them on our side of the battle, because the last thing we need is them on the enemy team."

"This group of people," Chiron asked, "what are they called?"

Percy narrowed his eyes, "the Abyss."

Chiron's eyes shot open in shock, "Luke has found a way into the Abyss?! Where did you all go during your quest?!"

"Ah...Boston?" Percy shrugged, "anyway this is bad news and we have to stop it at all costs. Anyone with me?"

"I am Percy," Annabeth said as she stood up.

"I am too," Charles replied.

"And so are we," Travis replied as he and his brother stood up.

"And so am I," Clarisse said as she stood up ready for a new mission.

"Well that's good, nice of you all to stand up for you friends, but we need everyone here," Chiron said, "we need to make sure nothing like this happened ever again. I would recommend Percy go in this quest with the traditional three members per quest arrangement."

"Hey that's not fair!" replied the Hermes twins.

"We should all go Chiron! The more the better chance we have of catching Luke!" Annabeth cried out in protest.

"It's okay guys!" Percy cried out settling down everyone there, "Chiron is right. Camp is defenseless, and we need someone to make sure shit doesn't hit the fan while we are away. And besides three people should be more than enough to get to Luke, after all this is more of a reconnaissance mission than a quest."

The demigods grumbled under their breath but just then Charles spoke up in a loud neutral tone silencing them all, "whatever you say Percy,"

Percy nodded, "okay then. For this quest I'll be taking… Clarisse and Annabeth."

"You sure?" Annabeth asked, "I don't really know what help I can be in a fight here Percy."

"It's your brains I need, leave the fighting to Clarisse and I, that is," he turned to the daughter of Ares, "if you're in."

The demigoddess smirked, "of course I'm in. When do we start?"

"In two days time," Percy replied, "pack up and be ready by then. Is there anything else anyone would like to discuss?"

Travis and Conner than raised their hands, "yeah we want to know something. We want to know how the hell you managed to lose Grover in LA, seriously we saw that guys yesterday and he was pissed off, going on and on about how un fair life is and how he was going to shove a hoff down your throat."

Percy gulped, 'maybe I should stay away from Grover for a few days.'

"That is a long story," Percy replied back as the meeting then ended sending each person to do their own thing. Most went to spend time talking with friends in the Amphitheater or doing something in the art department (making out) while Percy on the other hand had some training to do.

Hyperion killed his friends, he brought them back sure but he could never do that again, unless he wants to get in deep dodo with the gods. He needed to get stronger, much more stronger and for that he needed to train.

Percy snuck into the Forest and put a hand up, 'I'D Create: Empty.' The blue afternoon sky turned red as all the noise got cancelled out. Percy then went to the Fist of Zeus and sat down on top of the rock formation as he pulled up his stats;

Percy Jackson

Health-2,000/2,000(+1000) = 3,000

Mana-1,225/1,225(+1000) = 2,225

The Gamer

Title- Son of Poseidon

(+20 Str,+20 Vit, +20 Dex, while in water)

Level-17 Exp- 48,648/62,000

Race-Demigod

STR-32

VIT-40(+5)=45

DEX-31(+5)=36

INT-30

WIS-32

LUC-40

POINTS-61

Percy has put back his son of Poseidon title after coming back to camp, he didn't really the Leader title at the moment. But the thing that interested him right now was the 61 stat points he had, something which he fully intends to use.

So right now there was a decision to be made, what to spend it on?

'I needed more mana sure, but all that stats just for INT? Yeah fat chance. Being smart I'll admit is cool and all, but I am more of a jump first ask questions later kind of guy regardless of how smart I am. So maybe….Luc?'

Percy had done some research about characters and video games, considering his life in one. But there was one thing that really got to him, the appreciation of the Luc stat. Come on it's literally giving you the chance to improve your own luck, how awesome is that!

This would not leave anything to chance, after all if you could guarantee a coin flip will always work to your favour, is that really chance anymore? Or are you influencing the world to do your bidding?

Percy nodded to himself and quickly put 10 stat points into Luck raising it to 50 and just as he did that;

Ping!

You have achieved 50 stat points in Luc! You have gained a new perk!

Luck day- On this special day you will have +25 stats in luck lasting for 24 hours. On your birthday you will gain +50 in Luc stats!

Please select your lucky day;

Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday,Sunday,

Percy blinked once, then twice and then a wide grin broke out on his face. 'This. Is. Awesome!' Percy looked at the days and finally picked Friday, because come on, it's Friday, everything is awesome on Fridays.

Percy then looked at his new stats;

STR-32

VIT-40(+5)=45

DEX-31(+5)=36

INT-30

WIS-32

LUC-50

POINTS-51

If the pattern follows that of luck, every time he raises a stat to 50 stats he will gain a perk relating to that stat. Meaning he right now he could increase all of the stats right now and get several new skills!

Percy yelled out in happiness but just then he realised something, he needed to save his points. Yeah okay he could still totally gain three new perks right now, but that would mean it would become impossible to train the stats and raise them on his own. Maybe he should train himself so that each stat is at a minimum of 40 before he dumps points in them.

Percy then looked at the one thing he could raise right now, his Vit. Percy put 5 stat points into Vit and waited but sadly nothing happened. Percy was stumped, was his theory wrong? Was the new perk thing just a Luc special?

VIT-45(+5)=50

As he was looking at his stats a thought entered his head, 'wait….. is it my base stats that are supposed to be 50?' Percy then hit himself up the head for making such a stupid mistake and then dumped 5 more points into stat;

VIT-50(+5)=55

And….

Ping!

Yes!

You have achieved 50 stat points in Vit! You have gained a new perk!

Please choose one of these two new perks!

Iron body- allows your body to become as tough as iron on command. This skill can be improving on, the more you use it the tougher it will be.

Speed demon- Allows user to travel at unbelievable speeds at the cost of 200 HP per minute. Can be improved on with training, at present speed is: 62 Miles/hour (100 KM.)

Percy looked at the perks and was surprised at his choices and very very sad. Both of these looked…..amazing really. Both had so much potential. He could charge in with Iron body and start wailing around without a care in the world, wouldn't even need a shield any more is he got it to a high enough level.

And the speed would make him unstoppable in a battle. You can't hit what you can't see! And the cost is nothing to be worried about, after all his regeneration rate is 25%, and his HP is 2000, meaning he gained 500 HP every minute, which more than made up for the speed cost.

Percy sighed, he really couldn't decide. Many he should leave it to fate? Percy took out a drachma and readied it for a flip, 'heads for iron body, tails for speed demon,' Percy told himself as he flipped the coin into the air.

Percy caught the coin as it came down and carefully looked at it. He opened his hands and there was the drachma, the tail side up. Percy smiled and pressed Speed demon selecting the perk for his bonus.

Ping!

Congratulation! You have gained the Perk: Speed demon!

Percy closed his stats and then opened up his inventory and pulled out three skill books, Fireball which he got from the Chimera and Death Touch which he got from destroying Cerberus and Mist Illusions which he got from kicking the Nokken's ass. Percy first picked up Fireball annndddd,

Ping!

You have acquired the Skill Book: Fireball!

Would you like to learn it?

YES/NO

Percy pressed yes and immediately the book vanished as knowledge came flowing to his head;

Ping!

You have acquired a new skill!

Fireball, Lv-1 (0%)

Allows user to send balls of fire at enemy.

Cost- 10 MP

Attack- 10 Damage

Percy frowned at that and sighed, well it wasn't much but it was something. Plus Percy's element was water, the opposite of fire, so it would stand to reason that he would not be very good at the skill. But either way it would be helpful if Percy wanted to distract someone or start a fire or something. Hm….maybe with more training he could make it stronger.

Percy out those thoughts aside for later as he pulled up his next skill book;

You have acquired the Skill Book: Death Touch!

Would you like to learn it?

YES/NO

Percy pressed yes and the book disappeared in a flash as dangerous knowledge began to fill Percy's head;

You have acquired a new skill!

Death touch, Lv-MAX

Allows user to kill one being a day with a simple touch. Will only work on beings weaker than the user and 30 levels above user.

Percy looked at this and simple wondered all the damage he could do. He allowed Gamer's mind to take over as it helped him calculate whether this would make him more powerful, or more inhuman. He could kill anyone, with just a touch, maybe he should start wearing gloves? He then took out the last Skill book, Mist Illusions and;

Ping!

You have acquired the Skill Book: Mist Illusion!

Would you like to learn it?

YES/NO

Percy pressed yes and the book disappeard;

You have acquired a new technique for your Mist Control!

Mist Control, Lv-1 (23%)

The user can control the mist to create illusions.

Can be used on- Mortals

Range- 20 meters

· Mist Illusions: You can create illusions that take on the form of that which the effected most loves.

Percy frowned, this new power of his was far to smilar to the Nokken's for his likeing, but it would be useful. The demigod then pushed the skill aside, he didn't need it right now, maybe it should be his trump card, a worse case scenario, along with Death touch. With that in mind Percy decided to move one, there was still things he had to look into.

Percy got up and began stretching his legs, it was time to test his new perk. He got into a runner's pose and dashed across the forest grounds, 'Speed demon!'

Suddenly Percy felt himself becoming faster and faster as the forest blurred by. His legs started to strain but Percy couldn't feel the pain over the pure adrenaline coursing through his body. He loved this feeling, it was the same rush he got when he fought Craig with the Deadman title.

Soon however Percy reached the edge of the forest and was forced to stop. He nearly tripped into a tree, but luckily Percy had high enough Dex stats to maintain his balance. He looked up and smiled, if his calculations were right, and they were, then he just crossed the entire forest in 20 seconds, give or take.

That mean he traveled around 400 meters, and he knew that wasn't his maximum speed, in fact if he was to guess he was going around 72 Kms right then, so one can only imagine what he could do when traveling at full speed.

Percy then pulled up his HP bar;

Percy Jackson HP: 1,820/2,000

He smiled. His regeneration was already healing him, meaning he could afford to use Speed demon a lot more now. Percy walked back to the Fist of Zeus and sat down pulling out the skill disk he got from Cerberus and Observed the small golden object;

Skill Disk,

A disk when used will automatically level up one particular skill of your choosing. The number of levels that will be improved in written on the disk. (LV-10)

This thing would improve the skill level of any skill he chose, the only question was, which skill? He should use it on his weakest skill, but that would mean it would be harder to level up with pure training, if he used on his strongest skill that would make it even more difficult to level that up.

If he used it on something like Archery, it would help, but not by much. And Smoke from would be pretty strong if he leveled it up but again it would be impossible to train on it.

Percy looked across his skills and finally made up his mind on one skill in particular;

· Critical strike! Lv-3 (20%)

A precise strike that can cause 400% damage to the target.

Chance of success- Luc+Dex

Yes okay sure it wasn't a fancy skill and it wasn't something that he could profit from all the time, but it was very useful. Percy had a lot of luck, a lot of it, and he tended to get more Critical shots that most normal people because of that, heck example number one is Ares!

So logically speaking the best shot he has to bring down really powerful enemies is with critical strikes, and the only way he can train critical strikes in by doing them, and most of the time he does that the enemy tends to die off quickly before he can grind the skill up.

Percy then took the skill disk and pressed the number 10 written on top of as the disk glowed;

State which skill you wish to level up.

Percy spoke aloud, "Critical strike," and slowly the disk in his hand disappeared as Percy felt energy flow into himself.

Ping!

A skill have leveled up 10 times!

· Critical strike! Lv-13 (0%)

A precise strike that can cause 1000% damage to the target.

Chance of success- Luc+Dex

Percy smiled at this and closed the boxes and looked at what he should train first. Maybe some strength building? The last time he got a boost in those stats were ages ago, when he still wore the weights Nina made for him. He took them off before the quest, didn't' want anything weighing him down incase he needed all the strength he had, but maybe it was time to use it again.

Percy took out the weighted sweat bands and put them on setting the weights at 50 pounds per limb. He then got off the Fist of Zeus and began to walk around to get used to the extra weight before deciding to break two eggs with one stone and level up a few skills of his, mainly something he got very recently, his Shadow Control.

Percy approached a tree and began pouring his mana out into the shade of the tree, a similar process like his water control. The moment his mana touched the shadow Percy felt a pull and he pulled back with all his will.

Slowly the shadows under the tree moved according to his desire. It moved up like a tendril as it slowly stood up in front of Percy. The demigod reached out and began to touch the shadows, and he was surprised to feel that the shadow was actually very much solid.

'Hm...maybe my mana turned it into a solid form?' Percy wondered as her commanded the shadows to step out of the shade and into the light and watched as it only proceed to get stronger and darker the moment it touched the light. 'So anything that makes a shadow more solid makes my shadow control stronger? Hm… this is something I need to remember.'

Just then;

Ping!

A skill has leveled up!

Shadow control, Lv-2 (+10= Lv- 12) (30%)

Where the user can control shadows and manipulate them.

Cost- 95 MP(-50 MP=45 MP)

'Is it really that easy?' Percy asked himself as he recalled how he tried to control his water powers back in Yancy academy where he got exhausted every time he used his powers. Maybe it was because he had a lot more mana now that it seemed easier for him?

Percy smiled at that and decided to continue to use Shadow control until his mana ran out. Which didn't happen. With a regeneration rate of 500 MP per minute he didn't have any issues with his mana becoming too low.

So Percy decided to train two things at once and added started to create and launch Fireballs from his hands. He first started with one fireball, and then increased the number to one in each hand and then doubled that and pushed further and further as he now had ten fireballs, each on the tips of one of his fingers.

But he didn't stop there. He started to experiment with his skills. He created constructs with his shadows, which were easier to control into complex form than water, since shadows don't have a real form to give resistance.

He then began to control the shadows formed underneath his shirt and pulled them out, making them move freely out from under his shirt like blades of grass on a meadow. Percy also managed to increase the amount of MP and damage that his Fireballs could do, which was really a big accomplishment in his book.

At around 2 o'clock Percy stopped his training and pulled up his two skills which had leveled up by a lot.

Shadow control, Lv-10(+10=Lv- 20) (20%)

Where the user can control shadows and manipulate them.

Cost- 55 MP(-50 MP =5 MP)

Fireball, Lv-13 (23%)

Allows user to send balls of fire at enemy.

Cost- 100 MP

Attack- 1000 Damage

Percy nodded in approval and then began to train his Earthquake control skill, and since he is in his ID pocket dimension, he wouldn't have to worry about destroying anything.

Percy drew back a fist and poured mana into it and smashed it into the ground crying out, "Earthquake fist!" The fist landed into the ground shattering it and causing a 9 inch fissure to form. Percy grinned and drew back his other hand and smashed it down as well as slowly he began to attack the ground again and again.

Soon the ground broke apart into dust as Percy found himself in a crater of his own making with a blue box in front of him;

Skill leveled up!

Earthquake control, Lv-4 (20%)

You can cause an Earthquake thought any part of your body.

Attack- 650

Cost 100 MP

Magnitude-1.6

Percy sighed and closed the box, he had caused too much damage to the surrounding area to have leveled up just once, and the more he trains the more damage he is going to cause, maybe it would be a better to train in this later, when he finds a place which is tougher than the Forest grounds.

Percy then escaped out of his pocket dimension as slowly all the damage he created in his Earthquake control training disappeared. Percy then began to walk back to camp but as Percy was doing that he noticed something, something inside the rock formation of the Fist of Zeus. A blue delta symbol and the moment Percy used Observe on it he knew what it was;

Ping!

You have spotted the entrance to the Labyrinth: Dungeon Lv-20

Do you wish to enter?

YES/NO?

OR

Do you wish to fast travel to another known Labyrinth location?

YES/NO?

Percy blinked at the two options given to him and he quickly realised what was going on. This was what is known as a fast travel option, meaning he could use this entrance to travel to all the other ones he knew, meaning he could theoretically use this to travel to Yancy academy and back.

Percy smiled as he pressed the yes button for the fast travel option. Just then another box appeared;

Please choose the location to travel to;

Yancy Academy

Percy pressed the only option available for him and then waited for the fast travel option to activate…..and waited…...and waited. 'Is thing broken or something?' Percy asked himself as he looked again at the entrance. 'Hmm… maybe I should actually enter for it to work.'

Percy then climbed into the small tunnel inside the Fist of Zeus and landed into a large tunnel that lead deeper into the Earth. Percy clicked his fingers and summoned a fireball in the palm of his hand and used the flames as a guide, already his training was paying off.

Percy held his hand up high and slowly walked deeper into the cave as slowly things got darker and darker with less and less light coming from the outside. However the moment Percy took his 20th step or so the rocky tunnel transformed into a well defined corridor that leveled out horizontally before turning into a set of stair that went up.

Percy walked up the stair but as he did he realized he recognized them, these were the very same staircase he climbed down on the very first dungeon raid he went on. Percy felt a little bit of nostalgia sink in, strangely, this was only a few weeks ago, and yet it felt like a lifetime.

Eventually the stair ended and there in the top was an opening leading to the courtyard of Yancy academy. Percy stepped out and immediately the opening closed behind him with a groan. The son of Poseidon then turned to the courtyard in front of him and smiled, 'well this proves it, fast travel is very much possible.'

Percy loved the fact that he found this little trick out, it would help him a lot knowing he could just pop into camp during school hours if he wanted to. He wasn't stupid, not with and Int level of 30 and Wis of 32, he knew he was going to come back to Yancy academy, considering that he didn't get kicked out or flunked, which was a record in itself!

The grounds of the school was empty and very quiet, nothing steared and for that PErcy was glad, imagine if someone caught him here it would take a lot of lying to get out of that one. He then looked up and saw that the sun was in the same position in the sky from five minutes ago, meaning Fast travel was truly instant and would not take like an hour or so to do, which he was grateful for.

Turning back to the entrance of the Labyrinth in Yancy academy Percy pressed on the blue symbol and selected the option of fast travel showed up. He picked Camp Half-Blood and the wall opened up allowing Percy entrance.

Soon after a minute of walking Percy found himself back in camp near the Fist of Zeus. He then quickly went back to camp for lunch promising himself to one day go and explore the Labyrinth for it's dungeon, probably when he was stronger. Last time he jumped into a dungeon without any forethought he nearly died, this time he would be ready.

After a quick lunch and spending time with the rest of his friends from camp Percy returned to his private training spot and then took out the gauntlet of Kefka. He then summoned Cerberus who appeared out of smoke nearly trampling the trees around as it bowed to Percy.

"Cerberus I need you to go back into the Underworld," Percy said looking into at the dog's middle head, "once there return to your duty as guardian to the Underworld. However if I never require your assistance I will call you, and you better come, got it?"

The giant dog nodded and slowly sunk into it's own shadow as it slowly disappears leaving Percy all alone. 'Huh, shadow traveling, didn't know he could do that. Though it does makes sense seeing Chimera's blood did give me the same power after defeating him.'

Percy put the gauntlet away and sat down on the Fist of Zeus again. It felt a little weird knowing there was a tunnel right under him but something told him that he wasn't going to collapse down into it or anything.

Percy then pulled up his skill list and slowly began to scroll through it looking for something new to train in. Eventually something caught his eye;

· I'D Create, Lv-10 (81%)

Used to create Instant Dungeons. Higher the level, stronger the dungeon.

Current list-

Empty Dungeon- no monsters.

Monster Dungeon- Zombies

Monster Dungeon- Goblin Camp

· ID Escape, Lv-10 (21%)

Used to escape from Instant Dungeons.

Percy hadn't gone into a ID dungeon in a long time, well one that had monsters in it anyway. The last time he had...it was when he fought Craig. After that incident Percy had put of training in there for some time, but now…. maybe it would good to return, plus there was something he really wanted to try out.

Percy raised his hand up into the air, "ID create: Zombies!" Immediately the sky turned red and the noise died out notifying Percy about the change in worlds. The demigod got off the rock formation he was sitting on and took out Riptide and attached his Apprentice zombie killer title;

Apprentice Zombie killer- 30% more attack and defence when dealing with the undead. +5 to all stats when dealing with the undead.

Percy closed his status box and got ready for his battle. He didn't just want to attack the zombies like he used to before though, no this time he wanted to experiment with something. He wanted to see just how far he could go using the Le Bete perk.

He closed his eyes and slowly began to focus himself pushing the effects Gamer's mind to the back of his mind. He then began to focus on his memories, particularly the sad ones. The ones that broke his heart, the ones that made him feel helpless. He remembered holding Annabeth in his arms as she died. He remember the anger he felt when he found out Gabe hurt his mom. He remembered the uselessness he felt when Hyperion attacked.

And through these memories his anger grew.

Ping!

Perk: 'Le Bete' has been activated! You gain +50 to all stats!

Percy's eyes turned from his clam sea green to a golden yellow as he growled in fury. He let the anger take over him, he let the curse guide him as he dashed out of the forest and towards camp where most of the Greek zombies would be.

The first one he saw didn't even realise it was dead before it exploded into dust. The second one managed to spot him before it died, and the third didn't even manage to do that. One by one the zombies fell to Percy's blade as messages started to explode out at Percy;

Ping! Ping! Ping! Ping! Ping! Ping!

You have killed while under the effects of Le Bete! You have temporarily gained +2 to all stats!

You have killed while under the effects of Le Bete! You have temporarily gained +2 to all stats!

You have killed while under the effects of Le Bete! You have temporarily gained +2 to all stats!

You have killed while under the effects of Le Bete! You have temporarily gained +2 to all stats!

You have killed while under the effects of Le Bete! You have temporarily gained +2 to all stats!

You have killed while under the effects of Le Bete! You have temporarily gained +2 to all stats!

Percy however ignored them all as his vision became tunneled allowing him to focus on only one thing, killing the monsters in front of him.

The Greek zombies only managed to rally together after the tenth or so zombie Percy downed, But even then they were no match for Percy's ferocity and raising powers level. More and more anger filled him as more and more power flowed through him.

Percy crashed into the army of Greek zombies with an Earthquake fist breaking the front lines. He then hacked and slashed his way through them all, smiling as blood and dust began to cover his face and body.

Eventually Percy stopped, panting as he stood on top of a mountain of corpses.

Total Exp gained:

2625 Exp!

He had killed at least 35 Greek zombies and now waited with excitement for the Legion zombie, which was now forming in front of him in the middle of the cabins.

Percy however didn't wait for his emmy to get ready. He charged ahead and ripped into the Legion zombies head. He plunged his blade into it's eye sockets and started to stab into it's brian;

Critical Strike!

1000% of 325 Attack = 3250 Attack!

Critical Strike!

1000% of 325 Attack = 3250 Attack!

Critical Strike!

1000% of 325 Attack = 3250 Attack!

Critical Strike!

1000% of 325 Attack = 3250 Attack!

Legion Zombie HP: 2,200/15,200

Percy however didn't stop, he never stopped. He brought his fist up into the air and smashed it into the Legion zombies face shattering its skull and breaking it's head open like a balloon.

"Earthquake Fist!"

Critical Strike!

1000% of 650 Attack = 6,500 Attack!

You have killed while under the effects of Le Bete! You have temporarily gained +2 to all stats!

Golden dust rained over Percy as slowly the incomplete Legion zombie disappeared into nothing. The battle however wasn't over. An army of Greek zombies appeared at that moment and charged Percy with their spears lowered.

Percy simply stood up from the golden dust that was a Legion zombie and began attacking the army without hesitation or doubt. The cries of the zombies rang out into the red sky as soon everything was silent yet again.

Total Exp gained:

2625 Exp!

Soon another Legion zombie rose only to fall yet again to Percy's vicious attack.

Ping!

You have leveled up!

Percy Jackson is a demigod, the son of Sally Jackson and Poseidon. He has ADHD and Dyslexia making it difficult for him to sit still in class. His behaviour has gotten him trouble over the years in various schools. Percy is aware of who is father is, and wishes to find meaning in his life. Percy loves his mother, and hates Gabe, who is a dick.

Status- demigod, giving Percy - +5 VIT, +5 DEX and the ability to breath underwater, enhanced strength, communicate with fish, create earthquakes, talk to horses, control water and look cool.

And soon;

Warning! High level monster forming above you!

Percy looked up and his yellow eyes spotted the demon forming above him. Soon the figure took form in the shape of a Knight of the Damned, almost an exact carbon copy of craig. Percy however didn't care that the enemy looked like his servant, he just wanted someone to kill.

Percy dove at the Knight with Riptide in hand and began pummeling the Knight back. His curse gave him a + 194 to all stats and Percy was using every single stat boost he had.

He smashed Riptide into the Knight's helmet releasing the shadows inside it. He then poured his mana into the shadow and gained control over the Knights body. He then closed his hand into a fist and the shadow inside the suit exploded outwards breaking the armour into pieces.

Ping!

A new skill has been created by your action!

Shadow control, Lv-10 (+10= Lv-20)(20%)

Shadow explosion- 1000 Damage (+500 Damage) cost 1500 MP (-500 MP)

Critical strike!

1000% of 1500 = 15,000 Damage!

Percy however pushed the boxes away, he didn't read any of them, all he cared about was the fact that the Knight was still not dead.

Knight HP: 15,000/30,000

Percy knew he couldn't afford to use more mana, if he was normal right now he would be on his knees panting, but the curse of Le Bete pushed him forward to ignore all his limits, to break them, to go beyond them.

Percy Jackson lifted Riptide up st stood waiting for his mana to regenerate and as he did the Knight of the Damned regenerated itself as well forming new armour out of it's shadows.

Soon the Knight was whole again but Percy was not ready, but the demigod knew there was more that one way to kill a monster. Dispet the curse clouding his judgement Percy was a born warrior, fighting was in his blood. He got took out a sword from his inventory and charged the Knight.

He raised both swords at once and began his attack, "Stardust Wave!"

1, 3, 6, 12, 18, 21, 30, 37, 42, 43, 49, 53, 55, 60, 69!

69 strikes x 249 Vit = 17,181 + 230 Dex = 17,411%

17,411% of 325 Attack = 56,585 Attack!

69 strikes landed on the Knight from Percy's hands and the moment Percy stopped the Knight exploded into golden dust leaving nothing but some loot behind.

You have gained 20,000 Exp!

The demigod turned and waited for the next enemy, but none came. With nothing else to fight the curse slowly disappeared turning Percy's yellow eyes back to green.

Perk: 'Le Bete' has been deactivated! Your stats have changed back to normal!

Ping!

Your title Apprentice zombie killer has evolved into Zombie Hunter!

Zombie Hunter- 40% more attack and defence when dealing with the undead. +10 to all stats when dealing with the undead.

The son of Poseidon looked around him taking it all in, what he had done. But before he took a step forward or even had a thought, his body collapsed into the ground as he fainted from the strain on his body.

Percy blinked away as he slowly regained control over himself. He pushed himself up and groaned at his stiff body;

You have slept on a very uncomfortable surface; HP and MP have been restored 50% each. All ailments and negative status effects have been cured.

Percy pushed the box away and slowly got back up stretching his muscles loose. He blinked the world into focus yet again and found himself still in an ID, only this time there was nothing chasing him.

Percy saw there was money, drachma and various other loot items all around him, meaning he was still in the zombie dungeon, but seeing as there was no zombies that meant he must have killed the all.

Percy got to his feet and pulled out a bottle of water emptying it with one swing. He then wiped the trail of water coming out of his mouth and recalled what happened when he activated the curse.

The curse was too much. It was like trying to control a force of nature. the more he killed the more powerful and out of control it got. Percy was hoping to use this curse as a way to fight off the really strong opponents, but he now knew the only way that would ever work is if he and the boss were the only ones there, with nobody to interfere.

When Hyperion attacked Percy was lucky he didn't accidentally kill one of his friends, he was too busy fighting Hyperion. But if he had somehow defeated the Titan the he would then attack….. no, it was to much to even think it.

Percy put the curse under the list, 'Never use unless you are about to die,' which is also where Percy listed the Death touch skill, the Mist Illusions skill and the Deadman title.

Sighing to himself Percy took out the gauntlet of Kefka and summoned all his servants. Zed, Craig, Alecto and Marchosias appeared out of smoke and bowed to Percy who then sent him to gather all the loot spread throughout the dungeon.

Soon they had collected;

16,000$

30 D

8 Health potions(Low)

Lv-2 Skill disk

Healing shrubs

20 Greek style swords

12 Greek spears

Essence of shadow, crafting essence (2)

Pot of chance!

Percy put everything away except for the Pot of Chance! and used Observe on it;

Pot of Chance!

Test your luck by sticking your hand into this pot! If you are lucky you might something useful, if not...well let's just hope you can masterbate with your other hand as well.

Percy sighed at the pots description. The pit itself was very plain looking, it was brown and black, like ancient Greek pots, except these had big question marks drawn on their surface instead of greek heroes.

Percy looked at his Luc stats, sure it was 50 but maybe he should put off using the pot until Friday when his Lucky day perk would activate.

Percy nodded to himself and put the pot away and turned to his servants who were all looking at him curiously, "w-what? Is it something on my face?"

Zed shook his head, "no, not really. It's just you look different that's all."

"Really? Like how?" Percy asked crossing his hands.

"Like…. like you seem stronger somehow," Alecto replied, "more…. what's the word..."

"Feral," Marchosias said with a feral grin that spread across it's wolf face, "I see that you are using the curse of Le Bete freely. Something tells me however you are not the type to endanger others lives which begs the question, how did you use the power of uncontrollable anger, but still not get anyone hurt?"

Percy narrowed his eyes. He had forgotten how perceptive the demon winged wolf was. It was a mistake to bring it out here….or maybe it was an opportunity. Percy dismissed the other servants and soon sat in the middle of the empty monster dungeon with the demon wolf.

"So, alone at last," the wolf said with a smirk before it jumped up and exploded into a cloud of black smoke. The black smoke then melding together taking on the form of a naked woman with large perky breasts and a wide firm ass. Her beautiful face was covered with long curly hair dark as the night. Her skin was dark, like roasted almond and her eyes were the colour of polished cobalt.

She smiled at Percy as she slowly walked swaying her wide hips seductively, "hello, master." The last words came out as low growl as the demon crawled on top of Percy pushing him down on the grass, "I have missed you."

It took all of Percy's will power and the Gamer's mind abilities for him to not immediately become putty in her hands. He stayed stronger and spoke in a calm tone, "I need you ask you something Marchosias."

The demon smiled as she grabbed his hand in her and pressed her chest into his, "go ahead and ask, master."

Percy was now sweating, she was a little too close for comfort. "I-I need you to tell me everything you know about the Le Bete curse you put on me."

The demon raised an eyebrow, "everything? Or only what I know?"

"Is there a difference?"

"Very much so," she whispered as she pulled herself upwards grinding on Percy, "what I know I can give you for free, but if you wish for everything, well, then that's going to cost you."

"I see," Percy said. This was going nowhere fast, he needed to up to anty. Percy then rolled to the side putting the demon on the bottom while he was now above her. "So what do you know?"

The demon smiled at the change in position, "I know only the few basics. The curse was made by god himself as a punishment to be given out to codemed souls in hell. The worst of the worse."

"Which souls were cursed with this?"

The demon lifted her head and whispered in Percy's ear, "serial killers."

Percy looked shocked. The fact that his curse so the same used in Hell for touring serial killers kind of rattled him but just then his mind started to work and a question popped up, "but why? Why give the people who enjoy killing the power to kill more? Isn't that like giving meth to a druggy?"

"Yes, it is," the demon said smiling, ", the souls cursed with this will kill everything in their path and soon it will take over their very beings. Blood will be all they know but eventually they will lose the feeling of excitement. After one point the pleasure they get from killing will stop, they will become numb to it, but the won't be able to stop killing. They will lead a hollow existence from then till the end of time, never being able to stop, never being able to feel. A shell of what they are. After all, to much of anything is bad."

Percy looked at the demon under him and only one thought came into his head, 'I am so fucked.'

"How do I get rid of it," Percy asked, "there must be a way to reverse the curse, there always is."

"I don't know that master.All I know is what I have told you, I'm not even sure it can be removed."

Percy gritted his teeth in anger, "how do you not know anything about it?! You are the one who cursed me! And you are supposed to know everything!"

The demon under him chuckled, "I may not know everything, but I can."

"Explain," Percy said through narrowed eyes as he tightened his grip on it's hands.

"Every demon can access unlimited knowledge, stored in hell, for a limited amount of time. They just need the power of a human soul to do so, hence why I said before that the only way to tell you what you wanted to know I would need a soul."

"So you're not the only one who can do so, others can as well?"

She shook her head, "no. The place where we get our knowledge is called the Great Stream, and while others can travel the stream, I have conquered it. I am the librarian while others just visit."

"Then how can you not know?!"

"Because I never had to find out how to remove curses, only put them."

Percy looked into her cobalt blue eyes and could see she was not lying, he could feel it.

Ping!

A new skill has been developed!

Lie detection, Lv- 1 (12%)

You can detect lies said to you, 10% chance of success.

Percy sighed, "okay, I believe you." He then got off her and stood up.

Percy saw her lying on the ground and offered his hand, "such a gentleman," Marchosias said as she took it pulling herself up.

"I try," Percy said as he brought the gauntlet up to send the demon back inside.

"Wait!" she said causing Percy to stop, "can I just stay out here for a little longer? I don't like being it the stupid gauntlet of Kefka."

Percy's eyes winded, "you know about the gauntlet?! How?!"

She shrugged causing her breasts to bounce, but Percy was far too distracted to pay attention, "everyone knows about that gauntlet. After all the guy who made it was half demon and managed to steal one of god's tears."

"What?!"

"Yup, you see Kefka was half demon, and because of that he was teased a lot, well not teased more like abused. Anyway one day he went and complained to god and the big guy hearing his story started to cry. Kefka harvested his tears and made the gauntlet out of it."

Percy looked at his gauntlet and now suddenly the thing felt very heavy. "No wonder it's so powerful. It's literally a godly weapon."

The demon shrugged, "yeah but considering your a demigod that's not really saying much."

"Wait, god can cry?" Percy asked with a strange look, "like he has a body and can cry? Like cry cry?"

The demon nodded, "yup. Don't tell anyone but he's kind of a big softie, always going on and on about love and shit like that."

Percy stared at the demon in front of him with a look of confusion, "you sound like you know him."

She shrugged again, "yeah, we all know him. He always shows up during Sunday's for lunch."

"He shows up in Hell…..for lunch?"

"It's complicated."

Percy looked at the demon for a few seconds before sighing, "okay I'm just going to forget everything you said for the last five minutes and just send you back," he lifted the gauntlet but again Marchosias interrupted him.

"Wait! Can I have a goodbye kiss before I go?" the demon asked throwing Percy off his game.

"W-wai-ait w-what?" Percy asked stammering

"Well it's just I'm been so helpful, I think I deserve a reward don't you? "Before Percy could even respond she jumped on him and grab his lips in hers. She ran her fingers through his hair as she stuck her tongue into his mouth.

"Hmm! Hmm!" was the only thing Percy could say as his mouth was currently being overtaken by the demon's tongue. Percy tried to push her off him but Marchosias grabbed his wrists and put them to the ground. She then grabbed the gauntlet and pulled it of his left and threw the magical armour piece away.

The demon then broke the kiss and stared at Percy with a hungry look, "when you get older master, I'm going to ride you like a train."

Percy looked at her shocked but again before he could speak she kissed him again this time she grabbed his head with both hands and pushed her tongue deeper into his mouth;

Ping!

Skill leveled up!

Kissing, Lv- 9 (5%)

It is what it is. The higher level you are the better kisser you are. And remember practise makes perfect.

Your level is kissing leaved the person feeling happy for the two hours

Percy blinked at that but couldn't get himself to do anything about the beautiful naked woman sitting on top of him. He tried to move but his body just didn't want to. just then the demon broke the kiss and looked at Percy with the same hungry look, "see you later master."

She then disappeared into smoke traveling to the gauntlet leaving PErcy alone in the ID with a red face and a need for a long cold shower.
