Protagonist?Antagonist? I Reject Both

Chapter 5: 5:A New Life[2]

A certain piece of memory flashed before his eyes.

"For the beginning of your new life, I will find you a gift."

Leon suddenly felt an anonymous object and raised his hand to notice a dark metallic rod.

"What the fuck?"

"In the epoch of time, I have heard about Dragon Slayer, God Slayer, Giant Slayer, Vampire Slayer but out of all this, did you just give me the power of a pussy slayer? Do you want me to rape heroines, create a harem so that both Hero and Villains can't get the luck? Let me tell you, I hate rapists to the core and have killed many of the.."

"Shut up! This isn't for that."Vesturon screamed and explained.

"This is your gift. This can take the shape of any weapon you want. Presently it is at its lowest form but once you feed things it will get stronger and rise in rank."

Vesturon then rubbed his chin flashing a smile similar to a scammer.

"Are you satisfied now?"

"Okay, that's it."

Leon's playful expression disappeared and a rare seriousness flashed over his face.

"Anything more. You have got to be kidding me if you are just kicking me into the mess with this. The Protagonist has plot armo...I mean luck where the villains either have a devouring system filled with gifts to the brim that sometimes remain unused?"

"And what do I have? This metallic rod to shove in someone's ass."

Vesturon kept his lips shut making Leon sneer.

'You want me to work but you don't want to pay. I am sure that you lose something in exchange for power. While other Gods took risks, you didn't dare to. What a loser!'

"Are you belittling me now?"

A storm erupted from Vesturon's body and soon every fiber of Leon's body was ignited with a terrible pain that made him want to kill himself nevertheless he persisted.

Instead of screaming, an evil grin appeared on Leon's lips.

"I knew it...You can even see my thoughts. And I am not belittling you, I am just speaking the truth."

Since Vesturon is still adamant, Leon spoke

"If you scan my memories, you can naturally see an MMORPG game that I played in my last life. Give me a system panel like that. At least, I can know my stats and personal data."

"Okay, and I will give you something similar to that along with two special abilities."Vesturon conceded, freeing Leon from the torturous pain.

For a moment, he was surprised by the man's pain tolerance which was a good thing as he might be beaten quite often later.

'As expected, my choice is always the best.'

"What are you thinking now?"Leon asked curiously.

Vesturon sighed and snapped, following which many divine abilities appeared one after another.

100 orbs shining in myriad colors flickered in Leon's eyes. As Leon eyed them greedily, he heard Vesturon's voice.

"The color represents the element or affinity belonging to that skill, like red for fire, green for healing, blue for water, dark blue for lightning, white for powers not belonging to any element, etc. Each power will grow stronger with you."

"Got it."Leon nodded and moved his body.

On touching the orb, the contents of power appeared in his mind.

Leon went over the 100 skills.

Flight, Telekinesis (moving objects with the mind), Invisibility, Teleportation, Super strength, Super speed, Shape-shifting, Mind reading or telepathy, Flame Revolution, Lightning Punishment, etc...After taking an hour to go over every skill, Leon gave Vesturon an odd look.

"Is this it? Really.....100 skills and nothing unique. I mean all these should exist out there and if I came across someone who has the same ability as me, what do you want me to do then? Except for teleportation, I can't bring myself to accept these shits. For example, this most loved telekinesis can't be used to kill a fly at the lowest level."

Leon knew that these abilities would be terrifying once they were raised but would he even have time to raise them?

He wouldn't get any destiny points that's gonna raise their level with a click and if he was in trouble, fate wouldn't save his ass like the protagonist so he needs something that can help him survive others' onslaught.

He needs at least one skill that can assure him of his survival because only those who have read novels know how terrifying villains were with the system.

More than the protagonist, he fears these villains who are unrestricted and unhinged by anything.

"Then, why don't you just create your own ability?"Vesturon snorted, hearing Leon picking faults in everything

Though he said jokingly, Leon took that personally.

"Yes, I can. I can make my own if you grant permission but it seems you are too weak to do that and gonna cry that the universe restricts me."Leon mocked Vesturon.

Vesturon expression distorted.

"Fair enough, I will allow you to create your ability but you have to sacrifice something to make this."

Leon opened his lips and spoke with a glare."Huh! Do I even have anything to sacrifice? I am as good as a beggar."

"You have."Vesturon sneered.

"I will cut the thing from your new life in exchange."

Leon swallowed his saliva and even started thinking of taking back his previous words.

"What happened now? Scaredy cat, are you afraid?"

Leon didn't fall into the puny God provocation and thought carefully.

"Can I make anything I desire?"

"Yes, as long as the sacrifice is enough, "Vesturon replied.

"Okay, let's do it then. If I need to survive, I need to have something that no one has."Leon slapped his face with a resolute expression.

As said by some great baldy...

A small price to pay for salvation.

Leon and Vesturon went over a serious discussion and at the end, Vesturon spoke.

"Your system doesn't have any power but it will be linked with your abilities enabling you to handle your powers. Now I am gonna erase this conversation."

"What? wh-"

A bright light erupted again blinding his vision.

....

"Argh!"He woke up again with a scream.

"Ok! That was some wild shit."He breathed heavily and wiped beads of sweat

On raising his chin, his eyes fall on a virtual panel.
