Damn, I Awakened With A Horror System!

"How it is, how many champions did we manage to kill?" A being, with a figure that reach 5 meters tall (even being seated) cast a look at the silhouette in the surroundings as he said those words in a heavy voice.

Kekeke...

"I manage to kill Elise the "Bishop", tsk... tsk... I didn't expect that wh*re would actually beg for mercy before she died... HEHEHE."

An irritating sound of seemingly grinding metal resounded in the 2nd seat on the right of the giant figure, laughing irritatingly as he imagined the scene in his mind.

After the irritating sound finishes laughing, an innocent voice of a child follows, speaking weakly to the surroundings.

"Hmmm... I managed to kill King the "Blood Magician" and Rence the "Wind Archer", is that good? Although Rence isn't among the Champions he was not far from one"

"Hmmm, Leo the "Mad Sword" is also dead, I managed to kill him before the apocalypse started..." Not long after the child finished speaking, the lazy voice of a man wearing a windbreaker resounded in the dark castle, instantly issuing silence within.

"That Mad Man?" One of the shadows asks in a surprised tone.

"Hmm... Hmm... There are only two madmen in the champions, one is the "Mad Sword" and the other is "Mad Saber"." The Lazy voice slowly said, confirming the other party's guess.

"I see, I didn't expect that madman would die like this. A pity..."

Beside of the giant figure, the voice of an old man resounded, carrying a deep pity in his voice. Sighing deeply, he asks in a questioning voice.

"So other than the three champions, did someone manage to kill one?"

"No?"

Seeing that no one replied after 10 seconds of silence, the old man said regretfully.

"It's already expected, although the apocalypse is still in its early stage, killing the future powerhouse is not that simple.

Besides that, our ability and time are greatly suppressed by the power of time... In addition to the old fogeys and clans on Earth that we need to avoid, we could not openly use our abilities..."

"Indeed, we only have a month left before we get forcefully summoned back, after that we will no longer have a chance to kill the other future powerhouse."

"Hmm, I suggest that we should prioritize finding other champions before they completely grow up." One of the silhouettes interjected.

Hearing the suggestion, one of the figures at the end of the table(opposite the giants' seat) raises his hand slightly before saying.

"Wait... I remembered that the Saber and Sword Palace would show its body in 28 days... We might have a chance to kill Mad Saber by then!"

"Good, then Mad Saber is yours..." The Giant silhouette nodded slightly before retracting his gaze from the table.

"Hehehe, then Mad Saber is mine."

After hours of discussion, the group stood up one by one before completely vanishing into the cold castle... Leaving only the silence behind.

Slash!

Slash!

Ding!

[ Your Summoned Horror Skeleton successfully killed a level 8 zombie! ]

+2 exp!

+300 horror points!

Horror Skeleton1: +10 exp!

Horror Skeleton2: +10 exp!

Seeing that the zombie in front of them was finally dead, the 2 little horror skeletons issued a clanking sound of victory as they retracted their sword from the body of the dead zombie on the ground.

"They are almost at level 10. Will they receive a class job like a normal human or it would normally come after they reach level 15 like most of the beasts?"

Leo silently thought as he glanced at the dark skeleton in the distance before looking at the group far away.

In just two days after getting his epic skill, the group already traveled tens of kilometers away. Much farther than their previous speed.

It could be said that the Soul-Eating Birds probably cleaned the way in the surrounding area back then, causing them to encounter little to no beasts compared to the previous week.

"We are almost there." Suddenly, as he was thinking, the voice of Jake on his back entered his ears, causing him to instantly wake up from his reverie.

"Wait... We are almost near the settlement!?"

Hearing the voice of Jake behind him, Leo's eyes lit up as he asked Jake excitedly.

Although he was already used to this damned place where his life is always in danger, the prospect of finally meeting more humans and having a place to call home excites him.

Hmm?

Seeing the expression of Leo, Jake couldn't help but scratch his cheeks confusedly, thinking that Leo probably misunderstood his words.

"No, Unfortunately, we are still far away from the town... But we will reach the endless forest by the end of the day.

"If we transverse the endless forest for 2-3 weeks, then we will be quite close to the town."

Leo "???"

Two to three weeks? Endless forest? Quite close by then?

Seeing the dark face of Leo, Jake chuckled slightly, remembering that no one explained how far their town was.

Smiling slightly, Jake explained.

"You should be aware that the land expands drastically when the fissure appears above right?"

"Endless forest is one of the products of Earth's expansion. Not only does the Endless Forest hide countless unknown ferocious beasts within it, but its space and area are also unknown.

"Speaking of which, the town is also within the Endless Forest."

"I see..." Leo speaks in disappointment before he falls silent.

It would probably take a while before I upgrade my class job. Since I wouldn't be able to upgrade my class job, I should start focusing on preparing and advancing toward the Foundation realm...

Good, I could try to trade with the group, they probably have lots of unnecessary items on them.

"Ohh, right. Do you still have extra skill scroll or items that you can trade?"

"Hmm" Hearing the Sudden inquiry of Leo, Jake nodded slightly with lit-up eyes.

"Are you readying materials for advancement?"

"Yes, I might advance in two days."

Feeling that the time was right since Leo was already stuck at level 20 in the past few days, Jake took out items and skill scrolls on his inventory before tossing them to Leo one by one.

"I don't need anything, but if you have extra soul permanent potions. Cough... I will accept it gladly."

"As expected.' Feeling the corner of his lips twitch, Leo reluctantly took out a bottle containing a dark substance that was occasionally releasing a blue sparkling light, before handing it toward Jake with a heavy heart.

Other than Strength, Speed, and Magic Power Permanent Potion which was relatively common, the Soul Potion that increases Soul power permanently could be said rare/extremely rare.

Not only does the sole current source of the soul potion come from the soul-eating birds which are harder to kill, but the process of extracting the material is also twice to thrice harder than other materials are.

Besides that, the group also noticed that their comprehension, six senses, and reactions also increased slightly after increasing their soul power stats, instantly causing them to feel elated!

Hence, after learning that, the group started to eye Leo's Soul Potion happily, causing Leo to feel helpless.

Although he could buy Soul Potion from the system shop, Leo doesn't want to expose his unique system to the group.

Sigh...

Accepting, the scrolls and items in his hand (which didn't exceed Elite grade) Leo began to check the items and skills one by one. Hoping to find something useful.

Ding!

[ Wind Arrow (Elite) - Condense a Wind arrow that carried an intense penetration effect... ]

[ Mana Shield (Uncommon) - Summon a shield of mana that deflects physical and magic power... ]

[ Ring of Wind (Elite)... ]

...

Hmmm!?

Surprisingly after checking the description of the 6 items that Jake gave him, Leo found that 3 of them were extremely useful in his current stage...

Two skills and one item, respectively Restrain (Uncommon), Mana Shield (Uncommon), and Ring of Wind (Elite Item).

...

[ Restrain (Uncommon) ( Lvl 1) - Restrain the effect of the passive skill of the user, causing its effect to be restrained and greatly weakened (Only work at the skill below Rare).

Activation: 1 Stamina per minute.

Cost to Learn: 500 horror points! ]

[ Mana Shield (Uncommon) (Lvl 1) - Summon a shield of mana that both deflects and weakens physical and magic damage (The power of the summoned shield depends on the magic power of the caster).

Activation: 5 mana per minute.

Cost to Learn: 750 horror points! ]

[ Ring of Wind (Elite Item)- A ring that increases the resistance toward the Wind element, it also increases the wearer's sensitivity toward the wind.

+5 speed.

+5% recovery. ]

Other than the Restrain (Uncommon) skill that was extremely useful toward his uncontrollable passive skill that focuses on being Jinx and giving nightmares, the Mana Shield could only be said as a bonus.

Although Mana Shield is not that useful to the current him since its power is entirely connected to his magic power (which is not too strong), Leo plans to learn it and combine it in the future after unlocking the "Combining" feature of the system!

By combining this skill in the future, Leo has high hopes to greatly strengthen it!
