Chapter 33 True Ending
“Are there really… so many new traits I’ve never seen before?”
…
Lonis, of course, didn’t forget that she initially had 22 points and ultimately chose “Eternal Youth,” “Adrenaline,” “Tissue Regeneration,” and “Mild pain conversion.”
Although her original intention was for her partner not to die, it ultimately led to her being tormented quite a bit along the way.
And now?
She had gained another 20 points!
So, the choices she could make were…
…
“Idiot, choose that ‘Tentacle monster affinity,’ it only costs 4 points, it’s a great deal~~”
“What’s so great about it? It doesn’t look like a proper trait! At a time like this, who would still be thinking about lewd things.”
Facing Elus’s suggestion, Lonis merely shook her head.
Her own traits were all looks and no substance, with no combat power at all. Now that she finally had such an opportunity, why wouldn’t she choose some combat skills?
However…
“Idiot, Tentacle monster affinity IS a combat skill! It allows you to control tentacle monsters and issue commands to them.”
“Ehh?!”
“There are quite a few of them in the core of the moon! If you don’t choose it, you’ll be toyed with to the point where you can’t even speak. Don’t say I didn’t warn you.”
“Ahhh, then I’ll choose it! Elus, don’t lie to me…”
Although Lonis felt that Elus was bullying her again, there was no other way… Lonis had no common sense at all.
“There are still 16 points left, what should I choose… I think this ‘Tough Skin’ seems good, it has excellent defensive power but only costs 2 points… Ah, this ‘Crystal Skin’ seems even better! It costs 6 points!”
“Hmph, if you dare to choose it, then I’ll lock you back in the box and make you sleep alone every night.”
“Ehh?!”
“Idiot, you have infinite regeneration, why do you still need a defensive skill? Moreover, if you choose this trait, your skin will become very hard, which is not interesting at all.”
“Th-then…”
“If you want combat power, take this 6-point ‘Soul Counterattack’.”
“Ah?”
“This means that after you’ve been overwhelmed by an opponent, your soul can fly out of your body and attach itself to the attacker.”
“How can there be such a strange skill, th-then if I…”
Lonis swallowed, what if she was overwhelmed by a tentacle monster, and her consciousness attached to the tentacle monster.
Wouldn’t that be like playing with herself!
Using those tentacles to wrap around her fair body… double the pleasure, double the happiness.
(Wuwuwu!)
Just thinking about this scene made Lonis’s nose bleed.
Elus, on the other hand, frowned and said with an “angry” look:
“Hmph, as expected of an idiot, all you think about is lewdness… This is to help you gain extra combat power and protect your chastity even if you are in pain and pass out.”
“Ah?”
“This way, you only need to entice those enemies to attack. How well does that fit with your previous traits?”
“Wuwuwu…”
…
This left Lonis with only 12 points remaining.
In the list of traits, there were many attack skills… including attribute enhancements, such as being able to spray fire and electricity, to cool the surroundings, and even some psychic powers.
However…
After getting the Hong Yuan Weapon, Lonis was no longer as enthusiastic about these traits.
She carefully browsed the list and finally found a trait with an unclear meaning at the very end.
“True Ending”
Like her physical body regeneration, it also cost 12 points, and both were the most expensive traits in this system.
But what did “True Ending” mean?
As Lonis pondered, Elus’s voice came again:
“Hmm… what does True Ending mean? It means that after we defeat the boss, Lonis, you will wake up from the Land of Eternity again, but this time I won’t be by your side, and there will be an empty coffin~”
“Ehh?!!!!!”
“Because this world is originally an illusion? If you want to become this Princess’s consort, remember to choose the good ending over there~~”
“What kind of development is this? Can such a setting be said here?!”
…
Although Elus spoke with great conviction, Lonis didn’t believe her at all.
Seeing that the little idiot wasn’t scared to tears, Elus secretly smiled and said:
“Hmph, you can’t scare me with such things anymore? This means that the little idiot also has the courage and qualifications to challenge the Trickster Demon.”
“Ehh?”
“Consider yourself a qualified Hero! Actually, the True Ending trait is a causality ability, it allows you to occasionally see some future scenes and avoid some unlucky things.”
“What!”
“For example, each of us is a fish swimming in the river of time. Some fish accidentally hit reefs and die, while the True Ending ability allows you to occasionally leap out of the water to observe the dangers lurking in the riverbed.”
“So amazing, I want this ability!!!!!”
Causality ability?
As expected of a great ability that cost 12 points, it could be compared to immortality!
However, Elus sighed and said helplessly: “This ability, being a causality ability, means that the timing of its activation is completely unknown. If you’re lucky, you might see the answer to the next lottery draw, but if you’re unlucky, you might not see anything your entire life.”
“Uh…”
“Does the little idiot want to choose it~~”
“Hmm… I feel like it wouldn’t hurt to choose it?”
“Alright then… I’ll adjust your body parameters again. Wait a moment, and you can come out.”
No one knew what adjustments Elus made to her body details.
However, before long, Lonis slowly woke up from the coffin.
“Ugh… I…”
“Little Lonis woke up! That’s great!”
Su Ling leaned by the coffin, quickly extended her arm, and pulled Lonis out.
Normally, when Lonis woke up, she would only feel a bit heavy and tired… but now, Lonis felt that she could easily jump out without Su Ling’s pull.
“Wu… Ah?”
“Wow, Little Lonis, you’re so agile, is this…”
“Mm, I adjusted the little idiot’s body’s coordination. Now, while keeping her appearance unchanged, I’ve greatly enhanced your agility – even walking on mountain roads in high heels won’t make you tired and weak.”
“Th-that’s great?”
“Mm, but in return. Your body’s sensitivity has also been further increased.”
“Ehh?!”
“Although it won’t affect you on normal days, you’ll discover it when the little idiot attempts to battle – that sensitivity is several times higher than usual, to the point where you might pass out easily!”
Patting Lonis’s fox ears, Elus said very happily.
