Chapter 173 [Skill Converter]

Everything he spoke up until now was true, except about the part where he killed Irene's father's friend.

"You know Mallorn… I can tell the difference between the truth and lies as well," I spoke with a smile, turning his sad expression to a bit shocked as he slowly spoke,"What are you…. talking about?"

While he had a goal of killing Vertigo, somewhere along the lines, he also grew greedy for more power. I checked his skills, and he had a very peculiar ability.

[Snatch!]

[Allows the user to take the ability of others as long as they are not above theirs.

Cost: 50% of maximum Cessation Energy. Cooldown: 14 days]

Though it wasn't just that, that made me decide to go against him…

[Description:... when he saw Peire's daughter, he lost control of his lust and r*ped his daughter for over a dozen times in front of her fiance and father to display his supremacy. When Irene's father couldn't take it, he broke down into pieces. At that time, Mallorn took Peire's power, making it his own. When Irene's father found out about this whole situation using his own abilities, his anger grew beyond one could imagine, and he launched a full-blown attack at Mallorn.

Since he knew very well what might happen to Irene if she stays here, he used all his ability to make time for her to escape from here. While Mallorn promised to taste Irene's flesh until she dies, making him more furious towards Mallorn until Irene's father died.]

A smile was present over my already furious face as I sighed deeply before speaking out loud,

"Irene!!"

She came in immediately as she wondered what happened and I looked at her before turning at Mallorn in front me, who was making a scared yet calculating face.

[Time Cutter (Uncommon) (Level 2)]

[Bring out the blade that cuts through each and everything. Cannot cut through beings that are immune to space and time effects, or divine beings who have ascended the realm of mortality.

-AAAAAAA!!!!!

I used the sword to cut off his legs before turning that ability off and then moving towards Irene as I heard those pathetic cries.

"Don't kill him… but make sure he suffers," I spoke as I moved out of the room and she nodded with a deadly smile on her face before I heard the sound of her chainsaw roaring loudly.

When I moved out, the first thing I saw was another sleeping guy on the floor.

[Lucas Armer!]

Another one of the trusted dogs of Mallorn, who was captured by Walter and the others. He had the ability to use fire like the back of his hand. Though compared to Miya, who can perfectly control all elements, he was nothing but a child in front of her.

"Hmmm… there should be another one, right? Someone who had the ability to-" I was speaking, but a deafening cry came from the room beside us

-AAAAAAAA!!!!!

"Seems like she is having her fun," spoke George with a bit of a smile as he looked at me while Miya asked me with a bit of puppy eyes,

"Can I please join her?"

I thought a little before speaking,"sure but don't-"

Though she ran inside as she shouted,"Irene wait for me!!!! I know some torture methods!!!"

Honestly, this was the happiest I found Miya since she appeared here in this world. I could only sigh as I completed my words loudly,

"Don't kill him!!! I need him in the end!!!!!"

Before I sighed and turned to George and Walter,"you guys can do whatever you want for now, Though I will be killing more of the people here who have…. Well, you know, right?"

They both nodded without hesitation as they spoke,"whatever suits you, Sir."

I nodded as I touched the unconscious guy and sent him into the [Second Space] before finding an empty space around and moving towards that safety spot.

Checking for the time it will take before someone attacks me, I nodded before moving into the space.

"Hey Rhea," I spoke with a smile as I dragged that guy by his feet towards the [Trial Room] first. It had been a while since I got angry, so might as well take out my anger here for the time being.

Just like last time, Rhea followed me as she observed my actions.

And after another hour or so, I finally was satisfied with the treatment I did and looked at Rhea with a satisfied smile. Rhea took a step back with slight fear as she spoke,"you looked more angry than usual." I nodded as I explained in bits about what happened and I could see traces of fury appearing on her face as she spoke,"Can I take this one for a moment?"

"Nah! This one will break if we tweak even a bit more. I will give you another one soon," I smiled as I brought him to the [Sell] section.

[Would you like to sell A-Grade Zombified Human(The Pyromancer) for 850,000 Cronas?]

"Oooo!! That's a lot of Cronas. I guess A-Grade is actually valued that much," I spoke out loud as I recalled that B-Grade sold for around 100,000 or a bit more.

Pressing [Yes!], I then went back as I collected the Cronas from the [Tree of Crona] as well as the [Dungeon]

And then checked the total Cronas I had with me now

[Total Cronas: 1,002,914 Cronas]

"Nice. Let's buy that Skill now," I spoke with a bright smile on my face as I moved to the [Skill] section.

[Skill Converter(Rare)]

[Effects: This skill allows you to eat skills that you don't use and in return provides you with 50% of the Skill Points that you have used on them

Cost: 5000TP/Per use

Price: 500,000 Cronas]

Though something struck my mind, as I looked more into the [Skills] section and found another exactly similar Skill.

[Skill Converter(Uncommon)]

[Effects: This skill allows you to eat skills that you don't use and in return provides you with 25% of the Skill Points that you have used on them

Cost: 10000TP/Per use

Price: 200,000 Cronas]

The best thing about it was, it was two in number, too.

Buying the first [Skill Converter(Uncommon)], I then moved to another skill of mine.

[Skill Fusion(Special)(Level: Max)]

[Allows the user to join skills into one at the cost of Cronas. Note that the fusion depends upon the compatibility between two types of skills.

Can be used only once every 24 hours]

Then, moving to buy another of the same type, I then placed them both in the [Skill Fusion]

[Are you sure you want to fuse [Skill Converter(Uncommon)] and [Skill Converter(Uncommon)] for 50,000 Cronas?]

I pressed [Yes!] before I found the timer ticking once again for the [Skill Fusion] skill.

"Well. We have to wait for another 24 hours, I guess, before we can use this skill again," I chuckled as I looked at the baffled face of Rhea before I exited the [Second Space] as I began my hunt for Crona in this inhumane camp.
