Chapter 10

"Mention it again and I will blow your head off. You are only stronger than me stat wise. You can still have your head removed from your shoulders." Smirking in disdain at our little kerfuffle, Ignis walks past us as if we weren't there and begins to speak to Ihy.

Unbothered by this I turn to Ihy "Meet us at our house and bring your stuff."

"How will I find you guys?"

"Hmm good question. Just asks for directions to the house of the forest general."

"The forest general" Everyone froze as we left.

As we walk out I begin flipping through the manual. "It says here that there is a fee of 1 gold coin for every class we attend. First years must also supply 200 gp to the clan each month or something of equal value."

"What kind of extortion is this?"

"Well in exchange we get a free skill manual each month and a free tutoring session given by a teacher of our element each month."

"Well that is better."

"Yeah and we can get resources each month as well."

"Ooo I wonder what kind"

"Same, but first what are we gonna do for money?"

"Oh that's easy you are an apothecary."

"Yeh I thought the same, but it's dangerous."

"I ate mom's breakfast for 12 years I laugh in the face of danger."

"True. Ha, I have a plan. Are you down?"

"Till it ends."

"Till it ends. Alright so listen, firs---"

Right when I got to explaining I notice an attack coming from the right. I side step to the left and repel it back to where it came.

"Aaahaahaa boohoo Sanji sama the bad guy set me on fire." A girl of around 16 was on the floor bawling as if she was dying.

"How dare you burn the young princess. You will pay for this." Hmm from the way it looks the girl looks like she is apart of the Sarh clan probably a direct descendant so this guy must be either a servant, boot licker or suitor.

Without checking on the girl he rushes straight at me. Seeing this, I smirk and wink at Amen and he instantly understands. When the dude comes forward he tries a high level root spike, but being so used to fighting Amen it doesn't work. As he draws nearer I disappear.

He then turns to look for me with worry apparent on his face. But all he sees is Amen lifting the young princess off of the ground and sweet-talking her. Infuriated he tries to run back, but his legs are smothered in compressed space extremely restricting his movements.

"Sorry young miss but my brother thought he was under attack I assure you he had not the slightest intention of hurting such a beautiful rose." As Amen began turning on the charm I appeared behind him. If one didn't know me I looked like the most refined prince. As if I couldn't hurt a soul. While Amen looked like Apollo himself.

Captivated by Amens demeanor the young lady could only stammer

"I-I-It's alright. It was my bad any way. I still have trouble controlling my skills." She failed to keep eye contact. Haha shes a goner. His charisma and luck are too strong. No one has been able to keep eye contact unless they are genuinely uninterested.

"Well then now that you are taken care of we'll be on our way." With his signature smile. He stood her up and we began to walk away.

"Wait, can you walk with me to the infirmary?" She asked biting her lip and twirling her hair.

Hook, line, and sunk. "Why, of course. Just let me discuss with my brother then we can set off."

"Ok" She said still trying to act cute.

"Remember get as much info as possible. Also figure out her background and the background of this idiot over here."

"Yeah I know, I know. Meet at the house?"

"Yeah"

With that they set off. Hmm, about time I deal with this guy. I turn to the idiot who just had his girl removed. He tried to crawl over here but got over exhausted half way and passed out.

*Splash*

Using some of the well water from my dimension I wake him up.

"Wuhh, huh, young princess. Darn it you will pay for this."

"Or I can just kill you, no?" As soon as I said that it was as if a bucket of cold water was poured on his head. "Give me one good reason why I shouldn't."

"*sigh* I just wanted to be a dedicate."

"Hmm show me your best skill."

"Huh"

"I said show me."

"Oh of course."

Elf Art: Leg Armor

Woah he's an elf. He kicked a large boulder that was off to the side and it broke into countless pieces. Looks like his powers are leg based. That spatial compression on his legs must have sucked.

"Hmm not bad. Come with me."

"Yes sir."

Wait, Sanji? It can't be.

We finally arrive at the house and rest. I allow Sanji to take a room, so he hurries to go collect his things. While I look over everything we have received so far. It seems we never went through the knights bags from way back when. Wow that feels like so long ago. Well anyway.

Jesus these don't look like the funds of mere soldiers. How many people have they robbed. Who did we kill. Welp what comes, comes. These couldn't have been Barons men. Come to think of it, they did destroy 20 treants. Regular martial artists can't do that.

So what to do with all of this. First the weapons wow this sword is so heavy. With this we can get a Tier 2 guard. That'll be expensive as a monthly fee, better make that a slave.

Am I ok with slavery. Sorry ancestors but either have strong slaves or be one.

These daggers however feel wonderful. I can't knock an arrow so I'll leave the bow for Amen. We can also get some more guards for the rest.

Now for the martial arts. Martial arts is a neutral element that has a direct path unlike the element based skills, so I wonder if I can learn all of these and then consolidate them to form a set.

[Martial Analysis Initiated]

[Would you like full body path or one of the concentrations]

Hmm I will take the full body art and a leg art. We will see if this Sanji is who I think he is.

[Loading please wait]

[Complete]

System has something changed?

[Yes while host wasn't paying attention the system siphoned energy from the sky king and has been in hibernation]

Oh...ok. What function do you have now.

[New features include talk, subordinate function and due to host specific knowledge, system has developed an apothecary function]

Oh wow, what are the conditions for your next advancement.
