Divine Hack System
When Leo came home with the new bow, he carefully stowed the bow on the shelf he used to store the old bow, and after taking a shower and eating a big meal, Leo lay down on the bed because Leo learned from his mistakes. He knew that an upgrade like the Speed-Hack skill could cause some change in his body that made him feel a lot of pain, as it had when he rose to Bronze 2 Stars.
So Leo, finally ready, told the system, "Evolve the Wall-Hack skill."
[Are you sure you want to evolve Wall-Hack for 1000 Experience Points?]
"Yes," Leo replied.
[Wall-Hack Lv 03 [0/2,000]: Within a radius of 30 meters around the user, any being will be visible through a red outline as long as the target is at most 3 Stars more than the user. With each level the range distance increases.]
"Thirty meters of range… That's already a pretty good distance. Unfortunately, I didn't ask the system if there would be any skill upgrades that increased more than the default at some point, but maybe that will be possible at some point," Leo told himself thoughtfully.
"Unlock the Speed-Hack skill," Leo said.
[Are you sure you want to unlock the Speed-Hack skill for 1000 Experience Points?]
"Yes," Leo responded confidently as he closed his eyes and braced himself for possible pain, but even after 10 seconds he felt nothing. Confused, Leo called up his status screen to see if any problems had occurred.
[Leonardo Lentz
Age: 17 Years
Rating: Bronze 2 Stars [0/2,000]
Talent: Hack
Experience Points: 8
Quirks: Aim-Bot Lv 05 [0/1,600]: In a 50 meter radius around the user, anything the user throws or shoots will hit the target with 100% hit rate. With each level the distance and accuracy will increase.
Wall-Hack Lv 03 [0/2,000]: Within a radius of 30 meters around the user, any being will be visible through a red outline as long as the target is at most 3 Stars more than the user. With each level the range distance increases.
Speed-Hack Lv 01 [0/2000]: While the user has the skill activated, the user's agility will be 10% higher. With each level the percentage will be increased.
Available Quirks: Inventory-Hack (5,000 Evolution Points). The next Quirk will be unlocked when the user reaches Pure Silver Rank.]
Leo was a little embarrassed to see that his bedtime preparation wasn't helpful, but he didn't feel bad about it. Without thinking too much about it, Leo activated his new skill and realized that his agility had actually increased. While before he would need 3 seconds to take an arrow from the quiver and put it on the bow, after timing himself with his new skill activated Leo needed just 2.7 seconds, not to mention that the speed he could reach while running had also increased.
Leo was shocked by this ability. 'As much as 10% might not seem like a lot now, but I'm just a Bronze 2 Star Awakened. If I were a Gold Awakened how big would that 10% increase be? And by the time I reach Gold I will already have this skill many levels higher. How many times will I be faster and more agile than Awakened of the same level as me? 200 or 300% faster? Maybe even more!' Leo was very shocked by this ability.
While Aim-Bot was a skill that could be achieved by others with training, and Wall-Hack was a skill that served primarily as a utility, Speed-Hack was the first skill that increased Leo's innate abilities in such a direct way.
After thinking a lot about the possibilities of things he could achieve with Speed-Hack, Leo looked at the next Quirk he could unlock after unlocking Speed-Hack, but he was surprised to find that he could only get more Quirks after moving up to the Silver Rank.
'This isn't necessarily a bad thing…' Leo thought.
He knew that the bigger the difference between his Rank and the opposing monster's Rank, the more Exp points he would receive, but the new Quirks were also costing more and more to level up. If Leo kept getting Quirks infinitely, it might be possible for him to become the only Bronze 2 Star Awakened who could fight Silver monsters alone.
'Well, maybe this is a sign that I should just level up these Quirks as much as possible before the Pure Silver Rank?' Leo thought as he analyzed how many Exp points he might need.
'In the same way that I have a maximum of skills that I can get at Bronze Rank, these skills might also have a maximum level. Considering that Aim-Bot is already at Lv 05, maybe the maximum level is about Lv 10…' Leo started to speculate how many levels it would take to reach the maximum level of the skills.
Thinking about the large amount of points he would need, Leo finally realized that he would need to start killing even more powerful monsters in the future, even though killing Bronze 2 Star monsters already gave him a good amount of Experience and money currently, but to achieve the max skill level that wouldn't be enough.
With that in mind, Leo planned to start hunting Bronze 3 Star monsters the next day and start leveling up his skills frantically. Leo's goal was to get at least 2 of his skills to be at the maximum level by the entrance exam for Universities.
And with the list of materials the old man at the bow shop had given him, Leo already had a goal of which monsters to hunt in order to complete both tasks at the same time.
'As much as I may not be able to hunt Bronze 4 Star monsters for now, as long as my skills level up enough I will be able to hunt these monsters with ease without raising my Rank to Bronze 3 Stars, thus being able to extract maximum Experience points from the difference in rank between me and the monsters,' Leo thought with conviction. Planning so many things had Leo staying up later than he was used to, but after a while he finally fell asleep.
The next day, Leo went to school by bus as usual, even though he still had more than $6,000 in his bank account, and the amount of money he was currently earning was enough for him to buy a cheaper model of car. Leo, however, didn't intend to spend money on that sort of thing for now.
He was a big fan of cars, and was truly drawn to luxury sports cars, but Leo knew how to focus between what was necessary and what was superfluous, and for him, he was still buying the necessary equipment for a powerful Awakened. A luxury car would just be an unnecessary item for him for now.
When Leo arrived at school, Chris had an excited expression waiting for him in front of the school.
"Leo!" Chris yelled excitedly as he waved at Leo. Leo also smiled as he waved to Chris, who was a few feet away from him.
But something next shocked Leo. Chris, who was at least 30 meters away from him, suddenly appeared in front of Leo!
"You…" Leo didn't know what to say as he looked at Chris in surprise.
pᴀɴdᴀ nᴏveʟ Chris' smile got even bigger after seeing his friend's surprised reaction. "Yes! I finally got my Quirk! And it's a teleportation Quirk!"
"A teleportation Quirk?! That's amazing Chris! People with Space Quirks are extremely valued by the army! With this Quirk, as long as you're not an idiot, you'll be guaranteed a spot at the Military University!" Leo said excitedly as he hugged his friend happily.
Leo was worried that the Quirk that Chris would awaken was just an average, weak Quirk, which could greatly limit Chris' future, but because Chris had gotten such a powerful Quirk, Leo was finally able to relax knowing that his friend would have a promising future ahead.
"Yes! We can go to the Military University together!" Chris said excitedly.
At Chris' statement, Leo just smiled but didn't say anything. He knew Chris' confidence had come from the strength Leo showed in killing a Bronze 2 Star monster as easily as he did yesterday, and Leo also agreed with what Chris said: He was sure that with his skills he would also get a spot at the Military University.
"Very good, buddy. How about we go to the Elite class together?" Leo said as he put his arm around Chris' shoulder. Since Chris was shorter than Leo, this was a natural thing Leo had done with Chris since they'd met.
Hearing what Leo said, Chris was a little scared, but seeing Leo already leading him towards the Elite room, Chris just kept quiet with an excited expression, although still a little scared about what would happen in the future. Lucky for both of them, Leo ran into Professor Edward as they walked to the Elite class.
"Good morning Professor Edward," Leo said with a polite smile.
Edward was surprised by someone calling out to him, but when he turned around and saw it was Leo, he also flashed a polite smile and answered, "Good morning Leonardo."
Looking at where Leo's arm was, Edward noticed that he was hugging a small, skinny boy by the shoulder. Curious, Edward used some of his perception and realized that Leonardo's friend was also an Awakened. That was great news!
"I see your friend has also become an Awakened. That's good news young man. What's your name?" Edward asked with a smile.
"My…. My name is Chris Elliot, Professor Edward," Chris said in a polite and a little scared way, as this was the first time he had ever talked to a Silver Awakened.
"Chris Elliot, a good name. I'll remember that in the future," Edward said with a smile before walking back towards the Elite room.
"Today will you be teaching, Professor?" Leo asked curiously.
"Yes, Leonardo, today will be a practical class. And I am the teacher of this class for the Elite students," Edward replied.
"That is good," Leo replied as he remembered what Elizabeth had told him the day before, that the practical class was the best class the Elite class had. With that in mind, Leo went to the Elite class with Chris.
As there were no seats close to where Leo was sitting, Chris had to look for a seat away from Leo. When Leo sat across from Elizabeth, she didn't even write a note and spoke to him directly.
"Good morning Leonardo. Did your friend become an Awakened yesterday?" she asked.
"No need to call me Leonardo. My friends just call me Leo, and yes, I helped him become an Awakened yesterday. He was lucky to get a good Quirk," Leo said with a small smile.
"Then you don't need to call me Elizabeth either. I would prefer you to call me Liza. And good for your friend; it will be good for you to have someone else to talk to besides me, since the personality of these other people is not very pleasant because of their pride in being 'Elites'," Liza said while giving a cute laugh.
"Well then we'll be a conversational group of three. He's a little shy but once you get to know him well you'll see he's a nice guy," Leo said with a smile.
As they talked, Professor Edward finished discussing something with another professor he was talking to at the front of the classroom and walked in to announce the practical class they were going to have.
But before that he made an announcement. "As the entrance exam is coming, from now on, the practical classes will have rankings of students made through a tournament held every class. The result of these tournaments will be in your school records, as requested by the four major universities," Edward explained patiently.
The students were shocked by this news, and the students with the weakest Quirks were afraid of being at the bottom of their class, afraid that it would become a stain that would prevent them from getting into a major University in the future. But seeing Leo and the weak boy who joined the Elite class yesterday and today respectively, these weaker students were reassured, as with two people who had just become Awakened the last places were probably already guaranteed for those two who had not attended any useful classes with the teachers in the Elite class.
But what these students didn't know was that Leo was already a 2 Star Bronze Awakened, stronger than all of them, and Chris was an Awakened with a space Quirk, which also practically guaranteed a spot at the best University in the country. Especially for Chris, even having joined the Elite class today, probably the results of this test today would hardly affect the future possibilities for him.
Feeling the sneering stares, Leo just cracked a small smile at the corner of his lips and decided to wait to hit these guys with a heavy dose of reality in a few minutes.
