Chapter 75: Existence Lost?

[ Ding! Congratulations You have received a temporary skill ( Existence Lost )! ]

Glimpsing this skill, he had slight to zero understanding regarding this skill but even though it's the case, he had some idea about the skill which is pretty limited however, he asked his system about this. "System, what does this skill do?"

[ Host, if I explain it in detail it would take a long time so I'll paraphrase it, this skill eliminates your presence like you didn't exist in the first place, that involves the people who know you would forget about you. ]

He didn't panic after hearing that from the system, besides it's just a momentary skill if it's permanent he would have alarmed, then he said. "So everyone would forget about me?"

[ Yes and no, perhaps few could recall you for instance to those who have a strong affection with you or somebody above the Great God Rank. ]

If the system is true then, the girls should probably remember him especially Tohru, and also Quetzalcoatl not because she had a strong fondness for him or anything it's because she's probably way above  Great God Rank, would never know unless Quetzalcoatl would tell him personally.

After all his system couldn't analyze another individual other than him and the items, he went back to his residence as he wouldn't be able to get the weapons today, he would get it tomorrow morning.

Appearing at his mansion, he went inside and straight to the living room where he saw Quetzalcoatl consulting Tohru who was sobbing right now, he directly approached her and said. "Tohru! What happened? Why are you crying?"

Abruptly both Quetzalcoatl and Tohru's eyes shifted at him, they were alarmed to see him appear all of sudden!

Nevertheless, after seeing him, Tohru instantly tackled him and sobbed at his chest. "Awaaa! I thought you were gone sniff~ i-i was frightened that your presence abruptly disappeared from this world s-so sniff* I thought you died."

Suddenly he recollected his newly acquired skill, he thought. 'Shit, I didn't think of this probability, it's not my mistake but...I don't want to see her cry.'

After that he did his best to soothe her down, then he peeked at Quetzalcoatl who had a severe expression while gazing at him.

He asked. "What's wrong?"

"Kyle...what the hell did you do?"

Kyle was confused and replied. "What do you mean?"

"....You don't know? Fine I'll clarify I don't know how or what you did, but you're entirely out of presence, to be exact it's like you vanished from existence if I didn't have my current power right now, I would forget about your existence, I could even hardly recall our time interacting together, and also please keep talking to me you see if you don't I would forget that you are here."

Kyle was surprised to hear her explanation, to think this skill is much more powerful than he thought for instance if an assassin were to have this there is no doubt that they would be successful assassinating anyone without anyone noticing them.

And another representation of this skill, even if you would run nude in a crowded area, no one would catch a glimpse of you, it's a good and a bad skill depending on the person who used it.

He could only reply. "Oh."

"So, you know about it I'd like to ask how, but you wouldn't answer me right?" Quetzalcoatl was trying her best to look at him, if she didn't concentrate she wouldn't be able to see him anymore.

"It's complicated, but you don't have to worry it's just temporary."

"Is that so? Then I don't have to think about it since it's just temporary, good luck on whatever you want to do, remember that skill can be destructive depending on how you wield it."

"I know." 

After that Kyle escorted Tohru all night long, as she doesn't want him to go anywhere tonight, she was very anxious about what transpired before.

Approximately an hour ago, she was attempting to sip the soup she made, unexpectedly when she felt Kyle's presence abruptly vanish entirely she dropped the testing spoon on the floor and her face was filled with terror, she directly dashes toward the exit only to be interrupted by Quetzalcoatl.

After that Quetzalcoatl tried her best to stop Tohru, unlike Tohru she could still sense Kyle, however, if she doesn't concentrate she wouldn't be able to sense it which is a bit risky.

Quetzalcoatl was successful in persuading Tohru to wait, however, she couldn't do anything to stop her crying because she was worried for her lover.

She was powerless against it, at the same time she was having a tough time recalling Kyle from the corner of her memories, Quetzalcoatl wondered how could Tohru who is weaker than she doesn't have an issue of recalling him.

Quetzalcoatl shortly figured the reason, it's based on affection for Kyle, naturally, the more valuable the person is to you the more wouldn't want to forget that person, that applies the same logic of what's happening now.

At present,

Kyle got to know that everyone in the house had a difficult time recalling him, heck they couldn't even see him if he doesn't speak or interact with them.

He despised this skill, he wanted to complete his delivery as soon as possible, he inquired the system to deactivate it and said that it wasn't allowed until he completed his delivery service.

There might be few or many people who want to have this ability, but he wasn't one of them, and being forgotten by your family, lover and friends aren't that basically the same as dying?

The only distinction is that you're alive and conscious that they have forgotten about you.

Early in the morning, 

He left and retrieved the weapons that he paid for, after fetching them he put them inside his space inventory and shortly inquired the system to open the portal already.

[ Drive your motorcycle straight at full speed, after traveling exactly 70 meters you'll be teleported to your intended destination! ]

As soon as he heard that, he quickly started to move his motorcycle straight and after driving at exactly 70 meters, a portal appeared and he vanished.

Nasuverse side-

In a historical Japanese castle, a samurai-looking middle-aged man was bowing his head to a little girl, whose height is no longer than 152cm. She had black long hair and red blood eyes.

The middle-aged samurai yelled. "Lord! Our troops are losing! The firearms of our combatants don't have any ammo left for their guns at this rate we are going to lose!"

Even after learning that the little girl was still calm and finally she opened her mouth and said. "Lose? That's not going to happen! As long as. I Oda Nobunaga is standing still we are not going to lose!"

She said it with a voice that is filled with conviction.

( End- )

A/N : I don't know much about Existence Lost, since I just got this information from a friend and of course Wiki I have a slight understanding of this skill, my bad if I made a mistake somewhere.
