Now things are getting super exciting. Who would have thought that any random slave working here would possess such powerful and wonderful skills, skills that people would die to get their hands on? For the first time in all these months, I feel good about being here, Myne thought with an evil smile as he severed the octopus man's skills.
He quickly peeked at their descriptions, after all their names so weird that he couldn't understand their meaning at all.
[ Mystic Limb Sculpting: (Active Skill)
Description: This magical ability enables the user to sculpt and mold the limbs of a person like clay, granting them the power to add or subtract limbs with a mere thought. Be cautious; although new organs created by this skill would be independent and won't cause any problems with the body system, any kind of damage on them will bring real pain.
Cooldown Time: One day on each new creation.
Note: The newly created limb can be removed at any time. ]
F*cking hell, this is the skill I've been looking for for such a long time. Finally, it's in my hands. Now I can do what I've always dreamt about—having my dick in both holes at the same time. I can't wait to use this skill; so excited, Myne thought with eyes shining from excitement. Suddenly, he remembered his circumstances and calmed down.
"Velvet is still not ready. I can't play with her, at least not now. Maybe later. But now I have something in my hand that will surely save me from Big Sis Maya's wrath... At least this what I hope..."
[ Regenesis Ray: (Active Skill)
Description: Unleash a radiant beam of regenerative energy that bathes the target, kickstarting cellular regeneration and promoting an accelerated healing cascade. The more the Mana consumption, the thicker Regenesis Ray would be, and the faster the healing would be. Can also regenerate lost limbs.
Cooldown Time: None. ]
"Hmm, finally, now I don't have to feed people magic water to heal them... It's really too embarrassing to think about it."
[ Mystic Abyssal Breathing (Passive Skill)
Description: Enhances the user's lungs, allowing them to extract oxygen from water molecules. The user becomes capable of seamlessly transitioning between breathing air and water, adapting their respiratory system to the surrounding environment with ease.
An underwater breathing skill, huh? I thought it was some kind of breathing technique to make the body strong or something after reading its name. But it seems like I should never judge a book by its cover, Myne thought with a raise of his eyebrow. After taking a last look at the colourful couple enjoying themselves, he slowly closed the door.
"Ugh, how could you stand looking at that… that thing?" Those two men, or one man, one creature. Just watching them for a few seconds made my stomach start hurting, although it's already empty for months," Velvet complained as soon as Myne closed the door, wearing an ugly expression. Clearly, she was not as open-minded as Myne.
"Relax, honey. Their personal lives have nothing to do with us. What they do with their lives is their own choices. If you don't like it, ignore it and move on," Myne calmly cooled down Velvet, who was heating up for no reason, and moved back to the hidden chamber from which they came.
"Why are we going back? Did you find anything suspicious?" Velvet, who had just calmed down from the previous matter, asked with a frown.
"Not in the usual sense," Myne replied enigmatically. "But I remembered one of my skills, which I think would help us move freely in this entire place. But first, we need a secluded place where our voices don't easily get out."
Thub!
After entering the chamber filled with fake instruments, Myne gently placed Velvet on a chair and gave her something to eat. As for himself, he started thinking about the red man since he needed to have a perfect image of that man in his mind to replicate his appearance. After finishing his preparations, Myne quickly used his newly acquired skill, The Mirror's Masquerade.
This skill allowed him to reflect the appearance of a nearby person, but he should have a clear idea about the body structure of that person. However, since the transformation process would be very painful, according to appraisal data, Myne decided to use this skill in a secluded location so no outsider would hear his painful screams.
"I hope the appraisal skill is just joking, and the process won't be painful," Myne mutter nervously, gulping down saliva. He activated The Mirror's Masquerade skill, and the next moment, with a thud sound, he fell to the ground, eyes wide open.
"Ahhh..."
Myne started screaming like a beaten dog, rolling on the ground. His entire body made weird noises, especially his bones as if they were breaking from the inside and reconnecting shortly after.
"Myne! Are you alright?" Velvet, caught off guard by Myne's sudden scream, asked with concern, wanting to go to him. But was stopped by Myne, whose face was filled with tears and sweat but still had a forced smile.
"Necessary process," he gasped, each word punctuated by a fresh wave of pain. "Remember, No pain, no gain…" His voice trailed off into a whimper, a guttural curse escaping his lips.
Ahhhh... F*ck!..."
In the middle of his nonsensical utterances, Myne suddenly felt as if someone had hit a hammer on his head. He quickly grabbed his head and let out an ear-piercing scream, strong enough that even the couple shamelessly engaging in public displays of affection momentarily stopped and looked at each other confusedly.
When they didn't hear Myne scream again, they shrugged their shoulders and resumed their lovemaking.
To prevent attracting more attention to his chamber, Myne took out a wooden rod from his Inventory, bit it down in his mouth, and gave a thumbs up to Velvet, signalling her not to worry, before resuming his rolling on the ground like a fish out of water.
His bones sang an eerie song of splintering and reassembly, muscles twitching like captured prey. Velvet watched, terror warring with a desperate desire to help.
Then, Myne rolled, again and again, a tormented creature adrift in a sea of fire. Every groan, every rasping breath echoed in the cramped chamber, a testament to the price he was paying for this borrowed skin.
...
10 minutes later...
"Haaahaaa, haaa, haaa... Water!!!"
After what felt like a decade, Myne woke up again. He had lost consciousness in the middle of the third minute due to the pain. The first words he uttered after panting heavily caught Velvet off guard again. Their entire ration was with Myne himself, so how do she give him water?
Facing such a difficult situation, poor Velvet, although not wanting to give Myne more trouble, still said what she had to.
"Water is with you. Just wave your hand, and it will appear beside you."
Myne, lying on the ground like a dead dog, raised his head and looked at Velvet with his new red eyes speechlessly. Whether he wanted to laugh or cry at Velvet's humour, he couldn't decide. Then, remembering that it was not her fault and he had never mentioned anything about the Inventory to her, always presenting it as a magic trick, Myne nodded his head and took out the water.
"You're looking quite handsome in this new look, by the way," Velvet said, eyeing Myne evilly and licking her dry lips.
"Oh, come on, Velvet. You can't be serious about it, right? I am a completely different person now. So, indirectly you're saying I'm not enough for you, and now you like a red man with a small dick? When did you fall to this level? Tsk, seems like I brought an imposter with me again.
Where is my Velvet, you damn copycat?" Myne stood up from the ground, and since all his pain vanished after the transformation as if nothing had happened, he started joking with Velvet while pinching her cheeks.
"Ouch, ouch, ouch! Not so hard!" Velvet cried out in pain, but Myne only rolled his eyes at her useless acting. After acquiring new clothes since the old ones got destroyed again, he put Velvet back on his back, tied her there with a rope, put back that big robe, and used another skill, but this time on Velvet.
"Illusory Veil."
This skill allowed the caster to wrap a shimmering veil around themselves or others, altering their appearance as they liked. Myne's goal was to make Velvet on his back invisible so that he could roam around in this new form without any worry. Even if something bad happened, the final culprit would be someone else, and it had nothing to do with him.
"Good, now you're invisible. So, whenever you want to speak, make sure no one is around, got it?" Myne asked as he walked into the corridor.
"Got it, but I have to say those two guys really have quite a lot of stamina. It's been half an hour, and they are still fiercely fighting," Velvet spoke with her head resting on Myne's shoulder. Since she was invisible, she didn't have to hide her head in the robe.
"Hmm, compared to mine, this is nothing but child's play. Don't forget, once I fought with you on the bed an entire night, and only stopped when you started begging for mercy," Myne disdainfully replied while walking.
"Hey! You promised to never mention that thing again. Here, take your punishment." Saying such, Velvet opened her mouth and bit hard on Myne's ear.
"Ouch, f*ck, stop messing around, Velvet. We are in a dangerous situation, running for our lives under the nose of the enemy, not having a picnic. You are now behaving like a naughty, annoying child," Myne forcefully freed his poor ear from Velvet's jaw and gave her a good scolding.
