BXBX NOVEL Chapter 155 - Absolute-Consumption
[Would you like to combine the skills -All-consumption- and -Eyes of consumption and redirection- for 60 units of Heavenly Energy?]
\'uhh, Yes?\'
[Skill -Combination magic- has activated]
[Combining...]
[Combination Complete]
[A Unique skill has been created]
[Unique skill -Absolute-Consumption- has been added to your skills]
[Congratulations! You have created a level ??? skill]
[Title -Gluttonous (SS)- has become -Gluttonous (SS+)-]
\'Oh crap! Maybe I shouldn\'t have combined them before getting the eyes of gluttony skill back... oh well\' I shrugged while continuing to stare at the girl who was exuding killing intent.
\'ugh,\' I groaned while my eyes turned into shields of David skipping around my slightly smaller pupil.
"Forget what happened here" I snarled out making them both immediately go into a daze before regaining the light within their eyes and acting as nothing had happened.
"Alright you two, let\'s get back to the carriage before your father starts to worry" I smiled behind the mask while they looked at me with disappointed expressions.
"Can\'t we stay a little longer aunty Blonde?" Asked the little boy while his sister looked at me coldly.
While yes, I might have erased their memories, this does not mean her original resentment which I have no known reason to its creation, subsided either.
\'This bitc-\' Before I could even finish the thought, I heard a robotic voice enter my thoughts.
[Don\'t you want to know what the skill does?]
\'I was going to ask later\'
[Well, if you ask now, wouldn\'t it be better?]
\'Why do you want me to ask so badly?\' I furrowed my brows. This piece of shit could not be up to any good.
[Just ask goddamnit]
\'no\'
[Then I\'ll just tell you]
\'Go ahead\'
[So you want to know?]
\'Not right now, no.\'
[Oh forget it, I\'ll just say it! Gosh you are so annoying...]

\'Oh cool\' I ignored the list of uses and simply grabbed the hands of both of the kids and started walking towards the carriage.
[That\'s it?]
\'Yep! Now shut the fuck up and let me do my job\'
[...]
\'...\'
[By the way, the price for heavenly energy was a huge discount. Usually, you would have to use at least 6000 heavenly energy units to even think about combining the two but since you have been consuming heavenly energy for so long already, you only needed 60 more.]
\'Oh? Thanks\' I replied simply while continuing to hold both of the children\'s hands and walking elegantly through the forest. To any normal person passing by, it would look like a woman guiding two young lost children towards the right path.
After a few minutes of walking, I could finally see the carriage in the distance, where the man who am escorting sat in the carriage with a newspaper while the driver was taking a nap.
"FATHER!" Shouted the boy as he started to run towards the carriage while also gaining the attention of his father at the same time.
"Yes my child?" The man put down the newspaper and looked at his son lovingly.
"That woman over there saved us from this huge rat!" He exclaimed as if he was shocked by his own words.
\'Good thing I only erased the bad parts of the story. Maybe they will give me a tip or something.\' I smile goofily while jumping onto the roof of the carriage.
After a bit of talking, the rest decided to also enter the carriage and we set off again. Eventually, after 5 hours of moving without anything significant happening other than a few more assassins showing up in the distance, we reached the teleportation hub.
[Why don\'t you ask them who they work for?]
\'They are much more useful as food to me. My job is to escort them safely to wherever they wanna go. So my only job is to make sure they get there, not to make sure that the assassins never attack again.\' I replied while my mind drifted into different thoughts as I looked at the setting skies.
"We have arrived!" The driver shouted, waking up the people inside the carriage while making me open my eyes with a hint of annoyance within my eyes.
I jumped down the carriage and swung myself into the front seat.
A few minutes later, the circles around us started to lighten up and a voice rang out.
"Teleportation in 3
2
1..."
And the next second, everything turned white before being replaced with a cosmic landscape where stars shone brightly and cosmoses clashed to create great spectacles.
\'I could watch this for hours I thought while being mesmerized by the scene. I was so mesmerized that I did not even hear the constant ringing in my ears and did not see golden text appear in my vision. It was almost like I tuned out everything that was not the spectacular scene in front of me.
