"So what is the scoop? What skill did you get?" Mariella said with a worried look on her face. Now that I took the drug she must be worried about the side effects. The one potential side effect with the most negative response is a F-ranked skill.
"It says, Card Caster. Not sure how to use it." I said keeping the fact it is an SSS-ranked skill a hidden fact. Mariella is worried because neither she nor my dad has ever heard of that skill. Neither did Luna who encounters many people with different skills every day.
Mariella calmed down and asked about the future. My father is happy about partners looking for me. He, like me, just wants to get stronger. So he told her that once I got stronger stats. Enough to take on a B-ranked demonic beast by myself. Talks will continue.
This calmed down Mariella because her offer was still on the table. All that was needed was for me to get stronger. I am sure Mariella has a plan to get me stronger. My question is why is Mariella so desperate?
I can understand wanting to let your daughter find the right guy. My question is why try so hard? Is it Luna? I have told her that in due time I will marry her. Yet, she wants to get married now right away. Does she have others trying to get in her pants?
I will have to look into it later. For now, I need to figure out the ins and outs of my new skill. It is a ranked SSS skill. And from the description, it is likely to have some sort of offensive capabilities. My dad gave me a pat on my back and told me he was going to go work in his office.
He seems to be busier lately. Must be those pesky bandits. I wish I could help him. I really do wish I could help him. To help him out I need to figure out this skill. First things first. How do I activate the skill?
For my spear skills, I usually say them out loud. It could be the same for this skill, but I'd hate to say its name every time I wanted to use it. Might as well give it a shot.
"Card Caster." I said loudly and on cue. It appeared before me. "Congratulations, on the new skill." It says. It talks on and on about the skills and abilities. For starters, I must select something called a world.
