I got an SSS-Grade unique skill

Chapter 42: Bell Of Prophecy



Chapter 42: Bell Of Prophecy

Samantha's eyes nearly got reddish as tears kept coming out of them.

Memories of the past kept on resurfacing as she compared Adam's punishment to the previous ones that she received.

Memories that she wished were just dreams or illusions...

Actions that she wished she never did...

Decisions that she wished she gave more thought on and never did by impulse...

Minutes passed with Samantha sobbing, drenching each regret within her...

A while later, she then fixed herself and faced Adam composedly, uttering words after that...

"I accept the condition and punishment given", she uttered strongly

Soon, after the words were stated, the coupon started disintegrating which was then followed by a system's announcement...

'Ding!'

[ A one-sided contract has been formed between the Chosen Samantha and Adam ]

[ Failure to conform to the condition given would result in Samantha's enslavement ]

[ Numbers of One-sided contract formed:

Samantha: 3

Adam: 1 ]

Right after seeing the system's announcement, the gentle smile on Adam's face instantly vanished...

'My name! Why is my real name there?!', he thought while slowly shifting his gaze to Samantha

Samantha on the other hand was not shock at the announcement as she knew that Ace was just Adam's alias, she then spoke...

"Our real name would be revealed after forming the contract, but you don't have to worry, I won't tell anyone about you, we formed a contract remember?", she utters

After hearing what Samantha said, Adam finally calmed down.

"Why didn't you tell me beforehand though?", he asked confusedly

"I'm just curious about your real name, that's all", replied Samantha

Adam then just nodded his head though he was somewhat disgruntled by her reason, he then checked the announcement again...

"Your real name, it's Samantha, why? you never use an alias?", he asked after seeing the message which shows Samantha's real name

"I'm using an alias too you know haha", chuckled Samantha

Adam then replied after mulling for a while...

"Could it be that, I'm the only one whom you told your real name to?... Why?", Adam replied confusedly

Samantha then responded after chuckling, "why do you think so?", she uttered, trying to be mysterious

Adam then pondered for a while, thinking of a possible reason...

'Why? Is there any reason for her to do that?', he thought

Soon, after thinking about it, a smile was shown on his face as thought was formed on his mind.

"Its all within your plan!", Adam uttered as he looked at Samantha feeling amazed by the latter's scheme

What Adam conclude was simple, Samantha's reason for revealing her real name on their first meeting was to gain his trust!...

'She knew beforehand that I'm an 'AAA-grade chosen, therefore revealing her real name to gain my trust as she originally planned to form a friendly relationship', he thought

Though that's the case, Adam became more curious for one reason...

'How, how did she know that I'm an AAA-grade chosen?', he thought while feeling disturbed

'Did she have some sort of Appraisal skill?'

Soon, Adam asked Samantha this question as he was afraid that she did have an appraisal-related skill, and what if such skill did advanced and she eventually learned that he was an SSS-grade chosen? Won't his secret be revealed by then?

"How, how did you know my rating?", Adam asked while revealing a query expression

--------

Meanwhile, as soon as Samantha heard Adam's question, she took a deep breath as memories from the past resurfaced again...

A memory showing a silhouette of a person, standing before her, asking the same question...

"How, how did you know my grade?", the person uttered

Of course, Samantha was eager to gain the trust of the person hence, she immediately answered the latter's question, revealing her status window to the latter.

A shocked expression was then imprinted on the person's face after seeing the status window...

Similarly, Samantha felt glad that she soon gained the trust of the person, but months later, she realized just how bitter life was...

The person... The person betrayed her...

-----

After asking the question, minutes have passed, but still, Samantha hadn't replied yet and was looking at nowhere.

This caused Adam confusion hence, he started shaking Samantha slightly

"Samantha, Samantha!", called out Adam, pulling Samantha from her thought

After regaining herself, Samantha then shook her head, and pinched her cheeks while thinking...

'Yes, Adam was not the same as that person. He is worth the trust', she thought while looking at Adam intimately, thinking of how Adam didn't imprint her a death punishment.

Soon, after taking a deep breath, Samantha then uttered words...

"Share Status Window!"

After saying the words, a system message then appeared before Adam.

'Ding!'

[ Chosen Samantha wanted to share the details of her status window with you ]

[ Do you want to accept or not? ]

As the system's message appeared, a shocked expression was revealed on Adam's face as it was unexpected...

'This!, her status window?!', he thought

For Chosen, the status window could be the most confidential thing they ever considered as it reflected their own power. It was under the premise that it contained all the details about the chosen, including his/her unique skill and stats.

Also, keeping their unique skill a secret was the main priority as there was a possibility of others developing a counterpart for it. Moreover, having your power a secret, could be a decisive factor once in a battle as it could catch your enemy by surprise.

Likewise, asking a Chosen of his status window or unique skill was considered taboo, thus everyone refrains from doing so.

And Samantha having revealed her status window to Adam, the latter couldn't imagine just how much trust do the former have in him.

"Why? Are you not afraid that I would uncover your status to others?", asked Adam

Samantha on the other hand just chuckled softly then replied...

"It's fine, anyway, just consider it as my way of gaining your trust further"

A nod was then expressed by Adam as he understood Samantha's intention, later on, he immediately accepted the request as he was also curious about Samantha's secrets.

"I'll accept"

'Ding!'

[ The Chosen has accepted the request to share Samantha's status window... ]

After the system's announcement, a transparent holographic screen appeared before Adam...
