Chapter 265: Mastery Ability

Your journey continues at M-V-LJaden did not care about the reaction that Angela and the others would have when they saw the dead bodies in the villa. Instead, he was simply focused on the prompt that had come back from the system, just after he had delivered Ruben to the cops.

[Congratulations. Optional mission completed. The rewards are being calculated. You have Being rewarded with a mastery ability.]

[Mastery ability. This is an ability that enables one to be able to gain an understanding of doing something quite easily. It stimulates the muscles, enabling them to adapt to something that they have never done before, or do things that they have done before even better.]

Jaden had not expected that he was going to be rewarded with something like that. Considering the dangers that were involved in this mission, had it not been that he was currently stronger than ordinary, he would have definitely lost his life.

He was quite lucky considering that other than a scratch from the bullet, there was nothing else that he had suffered in that fight. Additionally, somehow, the wound that had been formed from the grazing of the bullet was no longer bleeding.

Perhaps his healing ability had also been improved, together with the enhancement of his physique. So, Jaden did not pay that much attention to this matter, but instead, he focused on the information about the ability that he had received from the system.

Even though there was an explanation, without trying it out, it was impossible for him to be able to deeply understand the usefulness of this ability.

So, Jaden went back to the Johnson residence after taking a taxi, upon reaching the road that a few of the taxi drivers had come back, despite being warned about an operation that was occurring in this area. It was a good thing that even though there was blood on his clothes, it was only a small amount.

Otherwise, it would have been difficult for the taxi driver to accept carrying him, as Jaden might be a criminal, which was something that frightened most of the taxi drivers.

The moment that he got back, he realized that Scarlet was waiting for him. She was currently seated on the hood of her Ferrari f8 spider.

When she saw him coming over, she smiled. Then, she came over towards Jaden, while asking with concerning her voice, "Have you already dealt with the matter? Are you injured?"

"I have already dealt with the issue. As for the injuries, I did not suffer any." Jaden responded simply.

"That's good." Scarlet was relieved upon hearing that. She wanted to ask Jaden a few questions, about the mission, but Jaden left.

This left her frustrated, but there was nothing that she could do. After all, it was not as if Jaden had to tell her. Additionally, from the way that he was moving, it seemed that there was something that he wanted to do.

Just a few seconds later after Jaden had left, Scarlet was suddenly concerned. She thought to herself, could it be that Jaden was actually injured, and was trying to hide it from her?

With her heart thumping, she rushed towards the direction that Jaden had gone to, towards his room. And when she got there, it was just when Jaden had entered into the room.

Of course, Jaden had already noticed that Scarlet was running after him. But he did not bother, and continued making his way to his room. He wanted to test out the ability that he had received from the system, and had no time to entertain Scarlet.

Just after he had entered, he noticed that Scarlet was already at the entrance. He turned around, and asked, "Is there something else?"

Upon hearing Jaden's question, Scarlet scrutinized Jaden's entire body. She even entered into the room, going around Jaden, just to try and see if there was an injury.

"Whose blood is this?" Scarlet asked as she pointed was the area on Jaden's shirt where there was blood.

"It is not mine." Jaden responded once again. Sёarᴄh the NôvelFire(.)net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"Oh." Scarlet exclaimed. In fact, she had been expecting that Jaden was going to tell her whose blood that was. But all that he said was that it was not his blood, which was something that at least made her relieved.

"I need to take a shower. I will come and find you in the gym later on." Jaden stated, when he realized that Scarlet was still standing there, looking at him.

"Sure. I will give you 30 minutes. Within 30 minutes, you should come over, or I will come looking for you." Scarlet agreed, despite the concern that was on her face.

She was thinking that perhaps Jaden wanted to make sure that she did not see the injury that he had suffered. He might not have suffered any external injury, but it was not impossible for him to have suffered an internal injury.

So, she decided to give him time, so that he could do what he wanted. But within 30 minutes, she was definitely going to come back, if he did not come looking for her.

Even though there was nothing in particular that they shared, other than the training sessions, still, she just wanted to be sure that Jaden was okay. Otherwise, if he did not come over, it implied that he had definitely been injured during the mission.

"Sure. I will come after I'm done." Jaden replied.

Scarlet then left the room, leaving behind Jaden who immediately went to the bedroom. Inside there, he took out the laptop, and began looking into the information about song composition.

He downloaded many documents with the information about song composition, from the beginner level, to the professional level.

Then, he began reading through them. He wanted to see if the mastery ability that he had received from the system was going to enable him to be able to learn how to become a song composer.

As he began reading, he felt that somehow, the way that he understood things had changed completely. He was no longer struggling like before, but instead, it was as if everything was coming to him naturally.

Even though this was the first time that he was reading information about song composition, it was as if this information had always been in his mind. And all that he was doing at this moment was just jogging his mind, reminding himself about these things.

Jaden suddenly got interested in song composition. So, as he continued reading, he did not realize that time was passing by. One document after the other, at an incredible speed, he read through them.

Of course, considering that he had downloaded several documents at the basic level, he gained deeper understanding of song composition, from different perspectives.

After the beginner level, there was the intermediate level. Then, when he reached the intermediate level of song composition, Jaden was not able to finish this level quite easily as before.

After all, the information that was in the intermediate level was definitely way above the one that was at the beginner level. Nonetheless, Jaden enjoyed gaining an understanding of something that he had never understood before.

The ways of arranging ideas into a song, kept on appearing in his mind, and Jaden felt that he could actually compose a song. But, Jaden did not try that, and instead, continued reading through the documents that he had downloaded.

Without even Jaden noticing it, it was now 7:00 in the evening. Jaden was still going through it the documents, learning more and more about song composition. Other than the notes about how to compose songs, Jaden had also downloaded the experience of several composers.

This way, Jaden got even better in just a single day. He was able to understand the challenges that several composers had faced, together with the times that they had experienced great success.

"Hey, did you already forget about what you said before? You said that you would be coming over immediately after you are done showering. But how long has it been since then?" Jaden suddenly heard a voice that brought him back to the reality, from the realm of learning.

When he looked over, Jaden realized that somehow, Scarlet had gotten to the entrance of the bedroom. She was standing there, looking at him with tired eyes.

Jaden was surprised. After all, this was the first time that somebody had approached him, without him even realizing it. It seemed that he had been so focused on studying, that he did not even notice that Scarlet had come over.

"Oh, I was just going through a few documents here. Should we go?" Jaden asked as he stood up. He felt that he should take a little break, before continuing with his studies.

"Sure. You want us to train in the night? It is time for us to take our meals, but look at you, you are so focused on reading I don't know what. And, you didn't even take a shower, or change the clothes as you had claimed before." Scarlet responded sarcastically.

Jaden looked outside through the window that was in the bedroom, only to realize that it was already night time. Jaden was once again surprised. When he was reading, with the mastery ability, he had not even noticed the time that he had taken when he was studying.

According to him, it had only been a short moment since he began going through the song composition notes, but somehow, it had already been hours ever since then?

Jaden could not help but wonder about the mystery of the ability. So, he immediately asked the system about it, wanting to get a deeper understanding of this ability.
