BXBX NOVEL Chapter 522 Using New Items
I had also asked my daughter if I could add her in my livestreams but she was reluctant to it… I guess I cannot convince her about this yet. Ah, she also told me I should wear less… revealing clothes as Planta. But it isn\'t as if that\'s my fault, the Dryad Class is better with these types of clothes because we shapeshift a lot!
Anyways, once the next morning came, I went to the bathroom, then prepared breakfast, and accompanied my daughter to her school as usual. Although this truth was revealed, nothing seemed to have changed as much as I had imagined, although there was a slightly awkward atmosphere between the two… which I hope fades away eventually.
"Have a nice day dear!" I gave her a hug and a kiss in her forehead.
"Mom you don\'t have to bring me to school every day now…" She said while blushing a bit.
"But it has been really dangerous out there lately, so I am worried about you, dear." I sighed.
"Hah, it isn\'t as if you could beat a monster if it ever showed up…" She sighed. "Real life\'s not a game where you can revive or have skills…"
Hahaha… Yeah, about that…
"B-But still! Anyways, you should get going, Anna and Elisa are waiting for you in the entrance." I sighed, giving her a head pat.
"Alright, see ya." She said, walking away.
"Phew…" I sighed in relief, as she finally walked away.
Although revealing her that I am Planta wasn\'t as difficult, the whole superpower thingy might not be something I can tell her straight away for now.
I observed the school\'s building for a bit, seeing all the girls walking inside. It was like any other day. It makes me feel like all the monsters I fought and everything else I did last week wasn\'t even real.
"Phew, now that I have more free time, I should probably go to the gym…" I sighed.
"Yeah! If you don\'t exercise a lot, your physique\'s going to slowly grow weaker." Said the Great Spirit. "Also, you arranged some meetings with Rose to train hand-to-hand combat techniques with her, right?"
"Oh yeah~ It will be two times a week, I\'ll actually be paying her with enchanting her gear with magic and potential cubes, as I promised her." I spoke to the Great Spirit through telepathy.
"Well, for now- Huh?" Suddenly, both the Great Spirit and I felt… something.
We glanced back at the school building, as my eyes started glowing, I activated Spirit Gaze once more, and looked into every person inside.
I saw several small auras of mana. I guess a place as big as the School is bound to get some people that has the aptitude to awaken magic or an ability…
Though I could swear there was something else, a bit stronger, and off.
"You also sensed it?" The Great Spirit asked.
"Yeah…" I said. "Something similar to the presence Phantasmos and the other Undead gave away, dark and powerful, concentrated in somewhere…"
"Could there be someone in there?" She wondered.
"I am analyzing everything and I can\'t sense it again at all, there\'s no monsters inside either, there are no Hollows either…" I said. "Hah, but maybe a ghost or something got inside?"
"Most likely, better be safe than sorry, let\'s put a lot of charms around the school and maybe inside." Said the Great Spirit.
"Wait, inside?!" I asked. "That\'s going to be a bit complicated… I don\'t have any skill that can just outright make me invincible. At most I could try to sneak inside using Blackie\'s Shadow Magic."
"Wait, you\'re telling me you already forgot the big haul of items you got from those guys you PVP\'d in BNLO?" Asked the Great Spirit. "Check your Inventory a bit."
"Oh? Right…" I quickly called for Blackie using Summon Familiar, as he appeared right in front of me, with a mouse on his mouth.
"Marao…?" He felt surprised I had interrupted him in the middle of his meal.
"Sorry Blackie, I\'ll need your backup!" I apologized.
"Meow…" He glared at me angrily with his cute olive-colored eyes. When black cats get angry they\'re a bit scary…
"O-Okay, here." I sighed, pulling out a Hollow Crystal I had saved. "How about this snack?"
"Meow! Maaoo!" He immediately dropped the rat inside his shadows for later and started begging me for the crystal.
"Hehehe, I knew you couldn\'t resist it!" I said with a proud smile.
While leaving him eating that, I looked inside my inventory and then after a few minutes, I took out the items that could be useful. Aside from the Shadow Orbs, that allowed me to conjure shadow magic a few times before breaking, there were other useful equipment items.
Although I couldn\'t see their status IRL like in BNLO, I could already sense their abilities through my Spirit Gaze, and I had already slightly checked their in-game status before.
First, I equipped the [Rogue\'s Ring (C- Rank)] which enhanced Shadow Magic Effects and Power by +25% while enhancing Stealth-type Abilities by +50% when equipped, alongside a bonus to Dexterity and Speed.
And lastly, I put on the [Stealth Coat (C- Rank)] which allows the usage of the [Stealth (C)] Ability and further enhances Dexterity and Speed!
"[Stealth]"
FLAAASH!
Suddenly, I felt my mana being slowly drained from my body, as the coat acted as intended, Blackie was suddenly incapable of finding me with his own eyes.
"Meow? Meow?" He began wandering around, looking for me.
It seems this coat is amazing! It even nullifies odor…
"I\'m here Blackie, calm down-"
"MEEREOOOWW…!"
Blackie was shocked, jumping off the floor…
"Aww, Blackie I\'m sorryyy…!"
