Healing touch

"Damn it!", Dante shouted as he approached Serena.

He felt deep down that what had happened was because of his inability to defend himself and he only felt worse when he had gotten to her. Seeing the wound by her side Dante thought back to the fight she had with Mia. He had not seen her land a hit on Serena so it was likely she got injured before she even arrived, but the question in his mind was how did it even happen in the first place? Observing the wound further, he realized that she had lost a lot of blood which meant she was going to die. His only option now was to stop the bleeding but this seemed impossible at the moment.

"What? What do I do?", Dante muttered to himself over and over.

"Don't worry about it. There is nothing you can do. Stay alive for both of us", Serena said before she finally passed out.

Tears began to follow from Dante's eyes, however he immediately stopped crying when he remembered what Serena had just said. There was something he could try but it totally depended on his abilities.

"System, how many points do I have?"

[You have only 1 point at the moment]

Looking at the wound, Dante put his hands on it trying his best to heal it only to fail. Remembering the information of his skill first aid, he realized that he could not use it to heal her. Refusing to give up he tried this over and over again until something surprising happened.

[Two skills have been unlocked]

[New passive acquired]

After seeing this message, Serena's wound stopped bleeding and even began to heal until it eventually came to a stop. It had not healed the wound completely, however it stopped more blood from flowing out of her body. Now Dante was hopeful that she was going to survive, the only thing he had to do now was wait for his Nano Lites to refill before healing her completely. Now that Serena's life was no more in danger, Dante picked her up walking towards the direction left of him.

"Where the heck am I even going?", Dante asked himself as he continued to move forward.

Dante had followed the direction that Serena had given to him before the issues with the worms. He had gone to the diamond shaped rock and to his surprise there was a cave there. Upon entering the cave, he instantly realized that this place had water as well as plants which were actually normal in size. The fruits were as big as usual but at least the plants reminded him of the former Earth.

Dropping Serena on the floor, Dante opened his system's window to observe the skills he had learnt.

"System, why did I learn new skills all of a sudden. Sure I appreciate it but I am still kinda curious."

[Skills can be learnt by exposure to certain situations and some can even be learnt so as to support the use of certain things you may have in your possession. They can also be acquired by an eager continuous struggle to fulfill a certain desire, this may fail though depending on the situation. They are also learnt based on events that had happened in the past]

Dante didn't bother to ask anymore questions as this information was already self explanatory. The only thing that was left for him to do now was to find out about what he had acquired.

[Dismantle]

[Void vault: Items and even Nano Lites may be stored in a miniature void. Total items that can be stored: 5

Maximum Nano Lites that can be stored: 40 points

Total Nano Lites needed: 10]

[Assemble]

[Healing touch: User becomes capable of healing a target by touch

Total Nano Lites needed: Depends on the severity of the injury being healed]

It would seem that the information from the system gave was accurate. All the skills he had now was given to him to counter some certain issues he had faced some time ago.

He had acquired the skill Void vault as a result of lacking Nano Lites during his previous battle. Healing touch was acquired by his determination to heal Serena when she was dying. The only thing that was left to check now was something totally new to his abilities, however he already had an idea as to what this might have been from the video games he played previously.

[Passive]

[Weighted particles: Removes particles from the body which is capable of slowing down the enemy to a limited degree. Particles are not visible to the naked eyes. The longer the enemy is exposed to this the slower the enemy becomes.

Only applies to a distance of two meters]

[Note: passives can be evolved to a higher form]

During his fight with Mia, he was man handled because of his inability to keep up with her speed. This passive was most likely made to slow fast opponents down so that he would be able to face them. This was a very good thing as he had something to use against the Fractures which were naturally quick creatures. On seeing that passives could be evolved Dante became curious.

"What does that mean?"

[A passives strength and efficiency can be increased by evolving them. The have a limit to how far they can be involved, however there end form is extremely powerful]

"What are the requirements to evolve?", Dante asked.

[The requirement is a total of 200 Nano Lites. This Nano Lites must be the total amount in the users body]

"Hmm, how can I increase my Nano Lites?"

[By defeating creatures in possession of Nano Lites]

This skills made Dante feel kinda happy, however he couldn't help but feel like it should have appeared earlier on. Looking at Serena, he noticed that she was had a pale complexion, her skin was even cold the moment he touched it. He hoped that she would stay strong till he had enough points to heal her. The only thing that could save her now was her will to survive.
