Chapter 399 Have We Been Here Before?
[User's heart rate is steady]
[User's body functions have been restored]
A strange, soft female voice resonated in Liam's head. It sounded human, yet unfamiliar to him.
'Is this the heavens?' Liam thought to himself. He could remember what happened, how he was going up against Royo.
'My arms were chopped off, and my eye, well, what was left of my eye. At least he took out the already bad one, right?' Liam tried to cheer himself up.
'I guess I'm dead now,' he thought. 'That guy, that strange... I don't even know what he was or what he did, but at least Royo's dead as well. That way I can rest in peace.'
[System has synced up with user 100 percent.]
The voice sounded in Liam's head again, and soon his eye started to open. The dark view changed, and now he was staring at a strange brown ceiling. There was a contrast, a change in colors, due to the light shining in.
"Am I... Alive?" Liam asked.
Immediately, as if on instinct, he had gone to touch his face. He could feel it—the skin, the eye patch still on his eye.
"Wait, I can feel it."
Looking down, he could see his fingers. He could feel them as he slowly closed and opened them toward his palm.
"Both of my hands, I have both of my hands. This has to be a dream, right? Why do I have both of my hands?"
[This is not a dream.]
The same female voice said in his head.New novel chapters are published on
"What do you mean this is not a dream? Who are you, where are you?" Liam turned around, and when he did, he could see the outside fields.
He was still in the same dimension as he was before. A field full of plants with fluffy strange balls at the end of them. He himself appeared to be in a large hollowed-out tree of some sort, but there was nothing around him.
[I am the system known as Vyka. I am comprised of nano machines that are now a part of your body.]
"Part of my body! I think I'm starting to go crazy; I must be in some type of secret technique of the Lethal Bite Clan."
Just like that, Liam's vision started to change, and now he was seeing a wireframe hologram of his fight.
He could see himself standing on the field, and Royo's movements in slow motion. He was moving step by step, his hand on the handle of his sword.
Then the move was made—the burst of Qi from the toe bursting right up to the sword, and it being pulled out, slashing apart Liam's arms.
Seeing the sight again caused Liam to shiver, but he recomposed himself because he could see it all. Every last detail, he could even stop the showing as he wished. If he wanted to, he could even view the situation from another angle.
'That's quite impressive; you can slow down everything that I've seen before... What else can you do? Is part of the reason why my body is better because of you as well?' Liam asked.
[Correct! Your body is composed of nano machines that are able to multiply by using the minerals in your body.
[As long as there is internal or external energy, then your body can always be healed back to the state it's currently in.]
[I can analyze situations and fights, allowing you to know what the best techniques are to be used in your situation. Your vision has been improved as well as your overall strength.]
"Wait!" Liam interrupted the other. "Does this mean that I'm no longer a Pagna warrior, that I can't increase my stages?"
[That is incorrect. I am an assistant; I can do many things, but you are still human, you are still alive, and you can still die.]
[What you call a dantian remains untouched and is the energy I spoke of. If your energy is larger and stronger, I am able to progressively do more things for you.]
[Speaking of, the Quick Bite Slash skill has been fully analyzed. Would you like to learn a lesser Version of the Quick Bite Slash skill?]
"A lesser version?"
[Your body is currently not strong enough to perform an exact copy of the Quick Bite Slash; therefore, a lesser version can be learned.]
Liam was so busy asking about the questions that he didn't realize something. This system had just informed him about learning a skill—a skill that would take months to learn and years to perfect, just from simply watching someone else use it.
Could it be that the system could do this for all techniques? Just by watching, Liam would know how to use a large number of techniques and decide which one was best to counter the others.
'What is this thing... what type of gift have I been given?' Liam wondered.
He could only think of one thing, or one person—the mysterious man who had appeared during that time.
'With this, I can get stronger, right? I can catch up to the others; I might even be able to get stronger than Raze! Yes, I accept, teach me the skill!'
