32 Inheritance

Sitting on the ground calming herself and getting her mind tranquil and quiet Janet took out the Jade slip given to her by Sukehime and went through the first few pages of Sukehime's teaching on Rune Mastery again and again trying to thoroughly understand and grasp the meaning of these phrases and sentences until a prompt appeared in her Status window,

[ Ding, host has learned a new skill ' Basic Rune Mastery ' ]

After the Prompt new column was add to her Stats,

Name : Janet Melleon

Age : 16 years old

Ability : M-chat

Prop : Jade Slip ' Sukehime's teaching on Rune Mastery and Puppet mastery '

Skills : Basic Rune Mastery [2.23%]

Seeing the skill Basic Rune Mastery appear on her status screen Janet was delighted, one of the most helpful functions of the status screen was that the skill proficiency meter. It helped the Terror Walkers to keep track of their progress and was way better than practicing blindly.

After getting the Skill on the Status screen, the next step was to increase the proficiency of the skill. Janet thought of two ways to increase the proficiency of the skill, firstly by going through the first few pages of Sukehime's teaching on Rune Mastery again and again repeatedly which would be awfully slow and boring process, lastly to start practicing writing rune characters it would be fun then repeatedly reading the same thing. Janet chose the latter one but the problem was she did not have a rune quill or papers to practice on though Sukehime did say to approach her or Masoko if she needed help, Janet was not foolish enough to go and disturb Sukehime. After giving it a thought Janet decided to borrow the rune quill and papers from Masako, she did not shy out from asking Masako for help because according to Terror Walkers code every thing in the Terror world is there for them to get stronger.

Masako was busy looking heep of Incest corpse, she noticed Janet coming towards her and greeted Janet " well hello there! "

" Your highness, Princess Masako Sama. " Janet politely bowed, then she looked at Masako standing on the corpse of Insects with bloodied katana and said " Your Highness, if you need help with something, you just order us. After all, we are your followers. "

Masako nodded at Janet's offer but she said " I am trying to harvest useful ingredients from the Insect corpses to sell in the next village, you can't help with this. It's okay I can handle this on my own you guys Just focus on getting stronger, In future I am going to work with you. "

" thats our Honor your grace. " said Janet with a smile, Masako loved the feeling of having such a understanding underling, she happily asked " so, what is it, how can I help you? "

" Your grace I need a Rune quill and Paper to practice Rune characters " said Janet politely

Hearing Janet was about to Practice Rune Characters Masako was surprised and asked " you have already stepped into Basic Rune Mastery, good. grandma did say that you had talent for Rune Mastery but I did not think you would be this talented. Here take this Rune quill this is my old quill i used it to practice my Rune characters, with this I hope you also reach the peak of Rune mastery. I will give you 200 papers for now once these are over come get more okay. "

" thank you, your grace, I will take good care of this quill. " Janet bowed and thanked Masako.

" Okay you can leave now and after you get started in Basic Puppet mastery come to me I will teach you Corpse Stitching, even though we have complete corpse here but Corps Stitching is an important skill of a Puppeteer of Dead. '' Said Masako, very proud to act like an adult in front of someone of her own age.

" Thank you your grace " Janet thanked again with a bow. Seeing Masako get back to harvesting from Insect Corpse heep. Janet silently left the Corpse heep, far from the foul smell of the corpse she found a good patch of grass to sit on and started practicing writing rune characters.

Like Janet, the rest of the team who had received their practice and Technique also started to cultivate finding a good spot on the ground with the exception of Ava.

[ Ava I will look after Trisha, you too start practicing your new skills, it will be very useful in the upcoming battle.] suggested James, even though Ava was not still blankly staring at the cocoon with dead eyes and mumbling like previously but she was still intently looking at the cocoon without blinking. Seeing this, James who sat next to her got creeps.

[ I am practicing my new skills right now. ] replied Ava still intently looking at the cocoon.

[ Really, how so.] James Indulged Ava.

[ I am using my light affinity to extract energy from surrounding light to maintain a warmer temperature around the cocoon. I read about it in a book, warmer the temperature around silkworms cocoon gets faster it completes its cocoon period of its life cycle. And also applying light heal time to time.] replied Ava.

As soon as Ava read the ' Pope Emmari's enlightenment on light element and emissary of light' for the first time, Ava had a Vision of a old man in White and gold robes with tranquil smile who said ' Sukehime You have Indeed found me a promising successor for my Light Church's inheritance, thank you and farewell 'and then suddenly numerous prompt appeared in her status,

[ Ding! Inheritance of Pope Emmari Detected, Host do you choose to accept it? ]

[Yes/No]

Knowing that the Jade slip given by Sukehime was more than Just the teachings of Pope Emmari but Pope Emmari's Inheritance suddenly started to doubt Sukehimes intentions of making them Masako's followers but still she choose to accept Pope Emmari's Inheritance as it was the fastest way to get stronger.

[ yes]

James wanted to ask Ava 'what makes her so sure that what works for a silk worm will work for Trisha, there are different insects with different habitats. So there are chances that this may not work for Trisha.' But still James chose not to ask as Ava was trying her best to help Trisha in a way she could. He was also impressed by how fast Ava was able to learn and execute two skills together.
