Chapter 63 - Scroll

Riku's eyes were widened after reading the details on the item he received from the quest which was the Uknown scroll. By just simply looking at it, you could easily tell this scroll would be random.

Back then, when he was playing the °XR Online. The scroll signifies the quickest way to learn a new skill, at the same time, it can also upgrade the current skill that you have. Of course, it was so useful in any aspect since you can easily turn your player to become stronger.

But it wasn't the case in this world, this scroll looked related to the Domain that has mentioned by System a few days ago.

He was gradually kneading his chin, trying to figure out what was the reason why the system bestowed him this kind of item.

[Possesion] - this skill allows you to have possession of a certain domain. At the same time, it will allow you to summon a lowly type of monster that would have great help in your current domain.

Ding!

A familiar tone rang inside his mind, which made to lift his head a bit and slowly darted his eyes on the screen in front of him. Yes! There's a follow-up screen that appeared and indicated that new thing he received.

[Omni summon] - by using the right amount of mana pool you could summon different types of monsters and the monsters' list under this notification.

[Omni Monster(s)]

• Rotten Ghoul- consume 30 mana pool

• Cerberus Skeleton- consume 23 mana pool

• Spy crow- consume 21 mana pool

[You could increase your monster pool by collecting the monster's core, one core is equivalent to one monster. The given monsters are included in the scroll and you could use them as long as you have the right amount of mana pool.]

Riku had a broad smile on his face as he didn't expect that he'll receive a new valuable skill from the system. "I'm now allowed to summon a monster? But what I could do them?"

In his mind, even though he had a summoning skill, still, he wasn't allowed to use it in front of everyone even Emma. Why? It is because there's a high chance they would be afraid of the monster even though he was the one who summoned it.

Moreover, he can't take away that this skill had a big benefit to him since he can order the monster and also increase his offensive and defensive ability. Or to be more simple, he can order the monster to attack and sacrifice by taking the attack of the opponent.

"Hmm... This is no way to change right now, once I came back to my world all of these problems would fade away and come back to my ordinary life." He muttered, then erased all the screen in front of him, and took a glance at the clear blue sky.

Swoosh!

A strong blow of wind transpired in the Amid of the Assima forest, then helped him to realize that they were staying in this place for a couple of years. "I think we needed to leave this place and complete the pipeline before the invasion arise."

He titled his head, looking at the woman sleeping next to him. First, he gently tapped her shoulder just to awaken her. "Emma? We need to leave we should leave this place before the sunrise goes down and the monsters inhabited here attack us." He gently said, then stopped when Emma frowned her brows as she was awakened by his words.

She stretched her arms and widely yawned. "Ahh... That's a good one, I never had it before." She was rubbing the tears on the corner of her eyes, eventually noticing that someone was looking at her. "Oh, Riku, are you good right now-?"

Emma paused for a second as she saw Riku's injuries vanish and the burned mark in his body. "Eh? What just happened to you?" She quickly stood up, then checked up his entire body. "Where all the injuries that you have? Don't tell all of them were already healed?"

When the time she mentioned, now he realized that all the pains he was experiencing earlier suddenly vanished. He had a shocked expression, telling himself that it wasn't nighttime so what was the reason why all the injuries disappeared?

"You're not making fun of me, right, Riku?" Emma thought that Riku did something to heal his injuries. "I see you burned on your back earlier and I know that was severe, no one ever could heal in just a short time." She wondered.

Riku had no idea how he was going to respond to the question fetching by Emma. "Injuries? Where do you get that? Look at me, I'm completely fine." An uncomfortable transpired on his face, trying to play at her as he didn't know the right answer.

Her eyes went serious, knowing Riku was not saying the real thing. "Are you kidding me, Riku? I'm not blind and I'm not hallucinating back then, so don't ever try to lie with me." She said in a deep tone, eager to know the reason behind this.

Yes! Riku was pressured by this sudden occurrence, yet no matter how hard Emma tried to interrogate him she will never get an answer as he know nothing. "No clues, Emma, I'm saying the truth." In order to stop Emma, his facial expressions and voice went serious, also, pushed himself into a stood-up position to alarm that they needed to leave this place as soon as possible.

She raised her shoulders along with a deep sigh. "Hais... It seems that you're know nothing, but sometimes try to question yourself and find the reason why you have a fast recovery." She said in a small tone, then stood up and patted her but. To remove the dirt and green grasses plastered on it.

Meanwhile, Emma stopped asking him since she noticed this man starting to be quiet. Aside from that, the sun soon to goes down and they were already hearing the loud groan of the monsters around the area. "Do you need some materials, or we are going back straight to the Arzotoc village?"

"All the Ferric that we have inside that pouch are enough to build the pipeline. Metal, it's a good conductor of water so it can transfer clear and drinkable not only for the crops." He explained before adding. "To answer your question, yes, we are going back straight to the village since it's way more dangerous once we stay here."

On the other hand, it came to his mind to use a Plastic material to be the pipeline for this village. But the thing here was, it can easily destroy by the monsters also he could guarantee the contamination they will have once they drink water that passes in plastic in this world.

[Fly!]

The sunlight could not damage him anymore as it was now hiding behind the large mountain. So to quickly leave this place, he used his ability and spread his wings straight back to the Arzotoc village.

"Let's go, Emma, we are going to eat dinner together, and sorry for the delay!" Riku apologized.

She nodded her head with a broad smile. "No worries, Riku! Since we are still eating together!"

Their expedition in the Asimma forest was just ended like that. Riku and Emma succeeded to collect the right amount of metal come along to complete the hidden quest given by the System. In just a day, a new skill and new problem happened to him as the system gave him a task to rule the monster.

Scroll, summon, status, problem in the invasion, and domain the things inside his mind. At this point, he can't now take a careless decision that can be the reason why he would drown the situation that possibly kills him.

After forty-five minutes, he was strolling his black eyes around, just to lessen the possibility that the monsters had the flying ability to attack them in this position. Furthermore, while traveling the cold breeze touched upon their skins, and two things could see by their eyes which were a huge forest and the lights coming from the village.

"We are near, Emma, hold tightly we are going to land in the place where the guards couldn't see us." He said, then stopped to spread his wings.

"No problem, Riku, I just get more excited to eat with you."

As soon as they landed, they fixed themself as their hair was looked stiff because of the cold air. After that, they were quickly head to the village entrance, without knowing that their attires were ripped as the occurrence happened in their expedition.

Or to be exact, by just simply looking at them, they could say that these two were having a hard time in their expedition.

Bam!

The sound of them metal barely tapped on the surface was the only sound they could hear after entering the village. Numerous guards were using their spears, tapped to the ground to celebrate because the adventurers come back safely.

"Our adventurers come back! Give them the way!"

Eh?

Eh?

They were looking at each other and asked. "What's going on here?"
