" A NOTE FROM SLYOKAMI
One of the shorter chapters, next one
should be coming out tomorrow :D
After retrieving the monster cores from the
dead wyverns and Soren butchering them for
materials Klein switched to sit in the front with
Vulk, the Serenity members all sat in the
middle talking over what had happened the
past days.
Sly and Skill explained to Soren and Silv about
the history of this world and the prime names
they should know about with Klein jumping in
from time to time to correct or add to the
explanation.
“That explains a couple things” Silv spoke as he
cleaned his ri!e “The churches people are at
Kaledd waiting for you three, they already took
away two others right after Lilliana made her
entrance.” His expression stone cold, more so
because of the reptilian features. No lips,
brow, nose or ears along with the scales for
skin made it impossible to show any emotion.
“They are?...Things might become complicated
if we are seen together, we’ll say our goodbyes
at the mountain then. You’ll have to walk from
there adventurers.” Klein explained.
“Fine with us, Silv you said it was bad at
Kaledd. How bad?” Kyle asked as he messed
with his attribute points, spending 10 in INT, 5
in STR and 5 in WIS.
Silv and Soren looked at each other before
turning back, it was Soren who answered
“Barely anybody leaves town, everyone just
stands around moping. Like they all gave up,
worse of all are the ones lured in by the
churches” He sighed.
Frowning Kyle picked up on Soren’s
annoyance “What do you mean?”.
“They’re playing the blame game, they are
being riled up against the old heroes and the
royal family” Silv answered.
“Venomous spiders…” Kess whispered but
loud enough for them to hear, glancing back
Kyle noticed her hand clenched into a "st.
“Having the people and us adventurers on
their side would de"nitely give them the upper
hand, removing the need for a civil war” Sly
reasoned as he wore a cold smile.
“What are you thinking?” Kyle asked noticing
his plotting expression.
Shrugging as he chuckled Sly shook his head
“Oh its nothing” he dismissed.
Leaving Sly to his plotting Kyle opened his skill
book and read through his newest gains.

“Yo Kyll by the way, what’s up with your class?”
Soren broke his concentration.
“What part, the gue, the unique bullshit or the
no weapon crap?” Kyle responded with a
laugh.
“Damn you serious? No weapon?” Silv joined
in.
Kyle raised his arm in front of himself “Slime
Pistol” the skill appeared "rst growing out of
his wrist then into a full barrel in mere
moments “I need to make my own weapons
out of the ‘materials’ I have at my disposal” he
explained.
Having gained both their interest Soren leaned
in “What you got so far?”.
Thinking it over Kyle listed them “Ice that
causes frostbite, condensed Ice that explodes,
Demonic slime that can grow tough scales and
claws/fangs that also poisons aura and this
new e#ect that allows me to harden any type
of slime.” And summoned the di#erent slimes
and their e#ects that could be shown as he
did.
“How do you gain them?” Soren asked
surprised by the short list.
“Level a skill called [Ooze] or do this” Kyle
replied as he opened his inventory and took
out a wyvern monster core “Now this, is the
real disgusting part” he held the earth brown
crystal sphere in his hand slightly smaller than
his "st.
Glancing back with interest Klein watched
“What are you-” as Kyle grew monster like
fangs and chomped the core down whole,
everyone stared in astonishment as he
swallowed.
“Hm, tastes like…baked potato” Kyle mused as
a couple noti"cations presented themselves.
Through the skill [Devour] you have
gained the passive skill [Draconic
Perception]
Through the skill [Devour] the skill
[Ooze] has gained the type [Draconic]
Through the skill [Devour] you have
gained the passive skill [Monster
Core(Wyvern)]
Glancing around at the others he smirked “It’s
a skill called [Devour], it lets me gain skills, skill
upgrades and bu#s by consuming monster
parts, plants and other materials. The monster
core seems to be the best part to consume,
although not all monsters seem to have one.”
He explained remember the snake they
butchered in the forest.
“What did you get for that?” Soren asked “Not
that I want to do that myself…” he quickly
added.
Kyle opened his skill book and read the new
additions to them.
[Draconic Perception]((EXP 0%) Level 1
– Tier 1): Your senses are touched by
the chaotic ways of dragons, the closer
a movement takes place to you the
faster your reaction time to it.
AGI + 5
DEX + 5
INT + 5
{Active} (Sub-e#ect): Magnify your
senses, whether it being sight, smell,
sound or touch.
[Ooze] ((EXP 41%) Level 2 – Tier 2):
Ooze out slime through your skin that
can be controlled by your will and
mana
Activation Cost: 0.03 mana per millilitre
Upkeep Cost: (2 mana per 0.5 Litres)
per second
Slime type: (Draconic)
(Draconic) E#ects:
(Draconic E#ect); The chaotic make of
this elemental slime allows it to merge
with other types, enhancing and
perhaps changing the very make of
said slime. The downside is that this
slime cannot be upgraded through
attributes, only through merging.
He summoned the earthly brown slime after
reading the skill, thinking it over he decided to
mess with it later. He didn’t want another
occurrence where he was made useless due to
mana exhaustion.
[Monster Core] (Set skill stats): A
monster slime’s core successfully
merged with your biology, your body
now has an actual organ to aid in mana
regeneration and mana storage.
(Slime):
Maximum mana + 10%
Mana regeneration + 200%
(Wyvern):
Maximum mana + 5%
INT + 5%
“So you got an active inside a passive too?”
Soren asked in surprise “My [Rage Initiative] a
passive that boosts my damage depending on
the damage I take has an active inside it called
a sub-e#ect too, I got it from leveling the skill
to mid-tier 1. It’s an aura that increases my
damage by a smaller percentage depending
on the damage my allies take.” He explained
while reading o# of his skill book.
“You sure you don’t want the other core?” Kyle
suddenly asked him “You two did kill it, a
wyvern core might be too much for me. Hell I
don’t even know where to start with this” he
admitted while taking out the second core.
“Nah we’re "ne” Silv stated as he raised his
arms up and leaned away “You haven’t seen
the things that cores do when unstable, I
have…it’s not pretty”
Kyle shrugged “Your loss, I’ll mess with it later
though” he put the core back into his
inventory “Yo Sly shouldn’t we report back to
Birse?”.
Sly who had been quiet through this whole
conversation glanced up from the VCD “I’ve
been trying to but I think this damn thing is
broken” he explained while holding the device
up.
“You’re kidding right?” Kyle exclaimed
anxiously “We can’t lose contact with the
others, here let me check mine” he pulled out
his own VCD and focused on contacting Birse.
Sighing with relief Kyle turned the device to
where both him and Soren to his left were
visible “Mine works. Yo Birse we got them.”
Birse appeared to be inside a dimly lit room as
!ashes of red and blue light occasionally "lled
it “You at Kaledd already? How fast is that
thing?” He asked while staring through the
device.
“We were waiting for you all on your side of
the mountains, decided to grind a bit while we
waited since we cannot die and all that.” Soren
explained.
Silv leaned in from the front where him and
Skill where using the front seats’ backs to sit
on “You guys going through an exorcism or
something in there? The hell is that
lightshow?”
“Oh that?” Birse smirked as he turned the
device around, putting into view Death and a
couple mages putting together what seemed
to be a magic circle on raised part of the
ground. Cornelius stood by them directing the
others as he read from a sheet of paper, runes
and descriptions in another language written
on it. “Something Death and the mage guilds
came up with, I didn’t get the details but in
short they are connecting this thing to Sly’s
VCD.”
Death and the other mages held strange
crystal shards in hand like pens and used
them to write on the stone, the crystals were
blue on one side and red on the other. Any
time they began writing a !ash of light would
"ll the room, the light’s color depending on the
side used.
“So that’s why Sly’s device isn’t working” Kyle
guessed “Get Death on call, I’d like to know
what they’re up to”
“Uhh sure” Birse responded as he walked over
to Death who was crouching down by the
raised ground, getting a closer look made Kyle
realize it was separate from the !oor. “Yo
Death they met up with Soren and Silv, Kyll’s
asking for you”.
Death glanced up and nodded as he raised the
goggles form his face “Wussup bro” he asked
after taking the VCD in hand.
“What you up to there? Are those runes?”
Kyle’s curiosity couldn’t be held back, neither
was the others’ as everyone including Kess
leaned in to see.
“Well after watching that Lucifer guy appear
and disappear then seeing it being done again
by Draxxer I thought to myself, ‘If they can do
it why can’t we? Hell why can’t everyone?’. So I
spoke with two of the mage guild masters and
they brought in Cornelius for his mastery of
runes, we’re working on a device that may
change everything!” Death spat out the words
so fast Kyle barely understood him.
Kyle chuckled at his enthusiasm “Okay slow
down there, what does it do? Why is e#ecting
Sly’s VCD?”
“Right, right” Death turned the VCD to
overlook the ring of stone “In short? It’s a
portal”.
Hearing this Klein almost leaped back, pushing
through Silv and Skill he glimpsed into the
device “A portal? Are you sure?!”
“Yeah using Cornelius’s knowledge of runes
which he learned by studying the respawn
points and some other artifacts, apparently
being the written language of the Gods. The
VCD’s have runes etched on the inside, a
certain string of runes is the ID number for
each one. We’re basically making something to
boost that connection to allow more than
sound and sight through, once we are done
with this all we need is to jumpstart the
portal.” Death explained, this time more
slowly.
“How will you jumpstart it?” Sly asked while
handing his VCD to Skill before leaning away
from him, Skill glanced at him in confusion
before shrugging and dumping it inside his
inventory.
“Unless our boy Lucifer is feeling helpful, we
were going to get in contact with you all to ask
his men about contacting him.” Death
explained with a hopeful tone.
Klein shook his head “As much as I want to
beg him to help you with this invention, I’m
afraid the commander has his hands full
scanning every single adventurer for
surprises.”
“That might not be a problem actually” Kyle
stated “It’s how I escaped Lucifer’s realm, I
think I can jump start it.”
“So what you just make the portal appear
where ever we take the VCD?” Karnage asked
as she leaned in from between Kyle and
Soren.
“Unfortunately not” Death admitted with a
sigh “The VCD will be destroyed once the
portal starts to open, the force will be too
strong and you’ll have to step away quickly or
be sucked in. Also the portal won’t be movable
but permanent.”
“I don’t feel like helping anymore” Kyle added
with a frown.
“You’ll be "ne damn worrywart, the portal
shouldn’t open instantly. You’ll revive if
anything happens anyway!“ laughing
awkwardly Death tried to dismiss his worries.
“I will "nd you and I will destroy you, dying
hurts” Kyle spoke sarcastically.
“No shit” Soren joked.
“Sir, we have arrived.” Vulk announced from
the front.
Everyone turned to look forward, the
mountains closer than ever. Squinting Kyle
stared as the mountains neared closer, a
single opening in the trees between them and
the mountains caught his attention. A large
wall of metal closed o# an area by the foot of
the nearest mountain, no towers, archer holes
or gates visible just a plain metal wall.
“What is that?” Reyna asked in curiosity.
“That is the outer outpost, Dwarven made and
defended.” Silv replied “Wait till you see the
city”.
“Kaledd?” Kyle asked while still staring at the
wall as it grew closer.
“Nah man that’s just a town, I’m talking real
full sized Dwarven city inside the mountains!
The Fae live there too along with the
Dwarves.” Silv explained.
Kess stood up “The city of New Ruk, a
combined city of Dwarves and Fae. I shall
announce our arrival” she stated before
disappearing into black smoke.
“Our "rst city” Karnage mused.
Sly glanced at Soren “Yeah, anything we
should know Soren?”
“Not really, don’t stare too long? They don’t
like being stared at” Soren added with a shrug.
“I second that” Silv states while rubbing his left
shoulder.
Vulk stopped the steamicle a couple meters
from the wall “This is where we leave you
adventurers”.
Klein glanced back “We will leave for Eslet, we
have a long report to make” he said while
saluting at them.
Sly nodded “Thanks for the ride, we’ll be
headed for Kaledd immediately. Shouldn’t be
long before we come by Eslet as well”.
Everyone got o# the vehicle and stared back at
the way they came “We need to get one of
these” Skill added as he gazed at the
steamicle.
“One day we might” Kyle said chuckling,
turning around he found himself gazing up the
wall. Two storeys of dark grey metal, one
single piece of metal with no indentions or
signs of windows or doors as if it was
hammered all together.
“So…How do we get in?”
