《The Heavens System Subsidiary (I Was Chosen By The Word)》Chapter 4 - First Fight And Unexpected Adversaries
Advertisement
''No, no, no, no, no.''
I dashed through the forest pursuing the scent that I picked up from my quarters.
My mother in this world was like my mother in my first life, kind and ever bright.
I initially didn't want to be connected to her after regaining my memories, I had not moved on from my first mum.
But I could not erase 17 years of love, at the same time I couldn't forget my first mum so I just let it go.
I had all of this life's memories from the day I was born plus the emotions.
All the original feelings didn't disappear in the slightest.
''Dammit, forget that I need to go faster'' I thought in anger
''[Ether Burst]''
BOOM!
A burst of ether pushed me forward.
[Ether Burst: User can channel ether internally and propel it outwards from any part of the body.
Propelling ether from my legs grants the User extra speed according to how much ether is put into the skill.
Note the higher the ether puts the lesser the control of the speed.
Ether propelled from hands and legs can also be used to increase Attack Power and Speed.
At higher comprehension, the user gains the ability to infuse elements into the ether to create different effects.
Variations Unlocked
Lightning Mana Burst
Fire Mana Burst
Lightning Fire Mana Burst
Final Burst
Usage: 20EP/Burst, 100EP/Powered Burst, All/Final Burst.]
'Need to go faster!.
''[Lighting Burst]''
*Boom!* *Cackle*
"Tch!"
"[Consecutive Lightning Bursts]"
*Boom*
*Boom*
*Boom*
*Boom*
[-80 MP]
With the extra boost, I hurried through the forest carefully avoiding hitting the trees in my path.
This journey would have been even worse if there were a lot of [Dark Beasts] lurking around.
But Heaven's luck shined today, only a few Beasts can be found.
As I continued zooming across the paths I noticed an irregularity in the area.
Advertisement
Because of my heritage and innate ability, I am very sensitive to Illusions.
I can easily discern when an illusion is used or when something is out of place.
But now I didn't have time to check what the irregularity is all about, I had to find Mom but as I was about to move on
Someone called out to me.
"Vincent"
"Huh"
I was shocked when I heard someone call my name, I went on alert keen to use a burst to scatter the area.
But a small shimmer came off from the bark of a tree.
I saw my mother leaning against a tree with cuts on her body and blood dripping from her forehead.
"Mom!" I yelled as I ran to her
I quickly arrived at her side as I saw that she was wobbling.
I then cast one of my most useful skills.
[Cellular Enhancement]
[Cellular Enhancement: Channels Ether into the cells of the body, Empowering the cells making them able to duplicate faster, and also serves as a Form of Enhancement.
It grants an effect similar to Regeneration.
Note: Skill causes great hunger and tiredness.
Usage: 5MP/Seconds]
'Got to thank me for being a genius in this life.'
Ether was passed from me to my Mother to speed up the rate of her cells.
After a while, her condition stabilized.
I bent down and held her in a princess carry, I then sprinted out of the forest to avoid the kidnappers.
'For the kidnappers to have successfully caught my mom, They'll have to be quite strong, mother is on Sky-Borne Level.'
In this world, a person's power can be classified into levels.
The Earth-Tiered Level/The Low Level
The Sky-Borne Level/The Middle Level
The Sky-Layer Level/ The High Level
The Star-Path Level/ Ascended Level
My mother told me that there were some more levels, But I don't need to know about it now

[Cellular Enhancement]
[Lightning Burst]
*Cackle*
*Boom*
*Whoosh*
With the combination of both skills, My speed increased by 200%. The drawback is a lot but it's nothing I can't handle.
With my new speed, I raced to the end of the Forest.
But as I got closer something suddenly jumped in front of me and let out a roar
*RAAAAAARRRG*
"Dammit, Just my Luck"
I encountered a Dark Beast
''Shit!'' I cursed
'Judging from the Aura of this Beast, It's at least a Class-B beast borderline Class-A.'
Dark Beasts can be classified into 6 Ranks or Danger Levels
The Class-D Danger Level
The Class-C Danger Level
The Class-B Danger Level
The Class-A Danger Level
The Class-S Danger Level
And The Class-EX Danger Level.
A person can judge the Danger level of a Dark Beast by its Aura as the difference between the auras of a Class-D Danger Beast and a Class-C Danger Beast as it's stronger.
If a person cannot discern.
A scan function from the status system can be used to discern its traits, it only works for Dark Beasts
[Scan Complete
Name: ???
Innate Ability: Sharp Claws.
Danger Level: Low-A Rank Danger Level]
Observation: Dark Beast stands on its two feet and is shrouded in darkness, Beast has an enhanced sight and smell than other Danger Beasts and it also has long sharp claws.
Overall the Dark Beast shares similarities to that of a wolf ]
'Dammit, it's a Low- A-Rank Danger Level, Normally I should be able to deal with it albeit with mid-Injuries but I'm currently carrying mom'
'I can't win like this!'
'I have three choices, Run past this beast and get chased by both the beast and the kidnappers'
'Or quickly take care of it using Full Burst but it will alert the Attention of the Kidnappers.'
'Or the best choice, Create an explosion and alert the Kidnappers to my area then I'll lead the beast to the Kidnappers.'
''Only the third choice seems logical so, the third choice it is''
''ROAAAR''
The Beast ran towards me with intent to cut me in half but I easily dodged using a [Ether Burst] and jumped backward.
The beast seeing me run away got enraged and chased after me.
This led to the mouse and rat chase between me and the [Dark Beast].
"Tch, This beast is quite fast, Let's see where the Kidnappers are"
[Ether Enhancement]
I focused ether on my eyes and my range of vision increased to about 200 meters, I found four high-speed objects moving towards me.
'They will perhaps reach me in about three minutes, that gives me enough time'
[Lightning Fire Mix Burst!]
A huge explosion reverberated through the forest.
[Ether Enhancement]
I used the boost from the skill to dash swiftly behind the beast and at the same time attract the Kidnappers.
Then I used [Ether Enhancement] and punched it with its guard down.
The [Dark Beast] was shoved ahead by my punch towards the Kidnappers.
I scouted forward again to see that they were engaging the beast.
I used this chance to escape but someone appeared before me and slapped something on my wrist.
Suddenly I fell to the ground and couldn't draw upon my Ether anymore.
I bucked up to see that it was the 3rd Noble of the Fenrir Family
"Haha!, Now I have the chance to teach you little shit some manners'' He said with a smile full of disdain

Changement : Version Face [French]
Notice: This story is in French, not in english, mainly because of my poor english. I may translate it later if I get better, and hopefully I will. _ Les cris de souffrance résonnent dans ses oreilles, dans sa tête et dans son coeur. Cette dernière image, ces derniers instants, ces morts incompréhensible, rien ne sera plus jamais pareil pour Nils Nocquat. Il sombre, et dans les ténèbres, découvre la fache cachée de son monde. Qui est coupable? Démon, Ange et autres Sonen, tous se renvoient la faute, et maintenant, Nils Change, il doit faire un choix. Indécis, il lance une pièce. Face. Il a choisi son camp. Il deviendra un Ange, le meilleur ou le pire de tous, ce n'est qu'une question de point de vue. - Author's note: this story is a concept. During the first chapter, the main character is faced with a major decision, which will change his life forever, and, not knowing what to do, he decide to play heads or tails, and let fate choose for him. And so there will be two versions of this story, one for each of the result, and their consequences for the main character, as well as all those around him. Here, he got heads. Note de l'auteur: Comme dit plus haut, cette histoire sera en français, car je ne suis pas assez bon en anglais. De plus, cette histoire est un concept un peu particulier, le personnage principal va se retrouver face à un choix décisif qui va changer sa vie pour toujours, et, ne savant pas que faire, il va jouer à pile-ou-face, en laissant le destin décider pour lui. Il y a donc deux versions de cette histoire, une pour chacun des résultats de son lancer. Lien de l'autre version: https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/28317/changement-version-pile-french Je vous encourage à ne pas lire les deux versions, ou en tout cas, à ne pas les lire en même temps. Elle sont assez peu similaires, mais des choses vont, logiquement, être répétées, et les confusions risquent d'être rapides, surtout au début des histoires. Dans tout les cas, ces deux histoires vont s'éloigner assez rapidement, tout en restant intrinsèquement liées par leurs personnage principal. Libre à vous de choisir la version qui vous plaît le plus, sachant que vous n'aurez pas besoin de lire les deux pour comprendre toutes les intrigues, elles sont absolument indépendantes l'une de l'autre. C'est la deuxième fois maintenant que je publie quelque chose que j'ai écrit, mais ça ne me rends pas meilleur en terme d'orthographe et de grammaire, donc si vous relevez une erreur, où même si vous remarquez des incohérences, n'hésitez surtout pas à me le faire remarquer. Toute critique, qu'elle soit positive ou négative, est appréciée. En terme de rythme de publication, je pense sortir un chapitre par semaine dans chacune des deux histoires.
