Chapter 2: Warriors Called Samurai

Yoshi slid back his left foot and lowered his body. In an instant, he lunged forward and unsheathed his blade. He curved his blade upwards slicing through the bandit like a blade cutting a leaf. The bandit's life left his eyes and fell down on the ground. Blood poured from the wound. A message appeared in my head.

Stat Absorber F - Since you killed a living thing. You will absorb a tiny fraction of their stats. The stats will be added to you at the end of the day. In addition to whatever stats you raise throughout the day with your hard work.

Woah, this skill is very useful. I can absorb stats just by killing things. I wish I used this skill sooner on the demonic beasts I was slaying. Regardless let's check what increased or will increase. +2 in strength and +1 in stamina. I see it is a small amount of stats Is what I will gain. 

I almost feel like that stat skill isn't effective. I mean I wasn't expecting much. Three stats points in total. That has to be a bad joke. Whatever, I should be happy I am getting more stats. What I am more interested in is that the monsters can talk. 

"So, you guys can talk?" I asked both of them not needing an answer from either of them specifically. 

"What? Yeah, I am surprised you can hear us." Yogen said with a worried look. 

This makes me worried a little bit. I never thought I would be able to summon friends. I call them friends, but I doubt they are. If I think about it, would they be able to attack me? 

"You are a young Card Caster. I can't say I met one young and able to speak to us before." - Yoshi said with a carefree face.

"Sorry master. We should deal with the evil people who are attacking the city. I can hear the cries of people that way!" Yogen said while running towards the main gate. Both me and, Yoshi ran to catch up to Yogen.
