《Ambrosius: My Own Time》Chapter Five
Advertisement
After a couple hours of jumping rooftop to rooftop, the 'Shakrus' compound comes into my vastly enhanced vision.
.
I take a look at the watch I bought on the way, and see that it's nearing four in the morning. Thankfully for my physique, I didn't get tired, but I'd rather not risk trying to go into the 'Shakrus' compound and getting caught at this time.
.
-
.
I go to a good hotel nearby, and rent a room for a week. Honestly, the hotel staff were way too schlax, but it worked out well for me.
.
After getting to my room on the fifth floor, I go to bathroom, wash my clothes, and take a shower, before setting an alarm for eight, and going to sleep.
.
-
.
"Yawn*, I feel like I forgot something very important."
.
I yawn and get a feeling like I forgot something, after which a realization hit me.
.
'THE STARTER PACK'
.
I exclaim in my head, as a system box appears in my retina.
.
[Does host wish to open the advanced starter pack?]
[YES]--or--[NO]
.
'Wait... an advanced starter pack? Iris do you know what's going on?'
.
{'Master, after gaining the starter pack, you hadn't opened it for more than a year, completing the one time hidden quest, Crazed Anticipation, that turned the starter pack into an advanced starter pack.'}
.
'What's the difference between a regular starter pack and an advanced one?'
.
{'The difference is the rarity and usefulness of the contents. Also master, the contents of starter packs and mystery boxes are unknown.'}
.
I nod as I press the [YES] button.
.
[Host has open an advanced starter pack.
Gained : Random Skill Card 1x, Random Title Card 1x, Spirit Egg 1x]
.
'Huh... um, Iris can you explain those things?'
.
{'Yes master. The Random Skill Card, gives master a single random skill from the active, passive, or unique category. The Random Title Card, gives master a single random title, and the spirit egg is an egg that will hatch a spirit of a certain rarity, based on the conditions when in its egg form. All of which have been placed inside of the master's inventory.'}

.
'Hold on... I have an inventory?'
.
{'Yes master. If you say 'menu' verbally or mentally, the systems menu will show all available actions. Otherwise master, you can just say inventory.'}
.
'At this point, I'm not sure whether to be happy or sad. Oh well, menu.'
.
❮ ◈ ❯

❮ ◈ ❯
.
I stare blankly at the screen, as I rival at my own folly.
.
'Ughhh. No use crying over spilt milk.'
.
I mentally tap the inventory, and I see an infinite number of boxes, with a few at the top holding the things I just got.
.
'Iris, can I store anything in my inventory?'
.
{'No master, only system items, and system administrated items can be stored and taken out of the inventory.'}
.
'Hmm. So say I got a weapon from one of the random weapon cards, can I store and take that out of the inventory?'
.
{'Yes master, as it is a system administrated item, then it may be stored and taken out from the inventory.'}
.
I focus on the green card in one of the boxes, and a screen appears.
.
[Item Name : Random Skill Card | Item Rarity : ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐| Item Class : System Consumable.
Item Description : A card that will give a random skill of the active, passive, or unique category.]
[Would you like to use the Random Skill Card?]
[YES]--or--[NO]
.
I press [YES], and a spinning wheel appears in front of me with three colors, blue being the biggest, red being the second biggest, and yellow being the smallest. I'd say that the blue takes up about sixty percent of the wheel, red takes up about thirty percent, and yellow is about ten percent.
.
The wheel spins for a whole minute, before slowly stopping on the yellow section.
.
[Host has used the random skill card.
Gained : Unique Skill - Clone]
.
I blink a couple times before looking over the skill.
.
[Skill Name : Clone | Skill Class : Unique.
Item Description : Allows the user to create an exact clone that has 80% of the original's strength. Current Limit : 2]

(A/N : Think of Naruto's Shadow Clone Jutsu, or Multiple Man's Ability from X-Men.)
.
'That's pretty good. I can do quite a few things with this.'
.
I nod, and my focus onto the orange card in my inventory.
.
[Item Name : Random Title Card | Item Rarity : ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐| Item Class : System Consumable.
Item Description : A card that will give a random title.]
[Would you like to use the Random Title Card?]
[YES]--or--[NO]
.
I press [Yes] again, and a gacha machine appears in front of me instead of a wheel.
.
The gacha game spits out a ball that's half white and half black, as as i open it to a small paper that says, Four Wall.
.
Looking at what the title is called, I raise an eyebrow, but then look at its info.
.
[Title Name : Fourth Wall | Title Designation : Given
Title Description : Gains complete mental attack resistance.]
.
I nod then take the time to look at my other titles description.
.
[Title Name : Ambrosius | Title Designation : Gained
Title Description : Gains immortality in every way, shape, and form.]
.
I smile, then check out the spirit egg.
.
[Item Name : Spirit Egg | Item Rarity : ⭐⭐⭐⭐| Item Class : Familiar.
Item Description : A blank, white spirit egg that will hatch in certain conditions. Spirit rarity will be determined during egg phase.]
.
'Iris, do you know how to hatch the spirit egg?'
.
{'Yes master. Once a spirit egg is exposed to a certain amount of an element, it will hatch into something that has that element.'}
.
'Iris... does Ichor have an element?'
.
{'Yes, the Ichor you extracted and consumed had pure holy element in it.'}
.
I smirk at her words, but that'll have to wait till I go back.
.
I check the time, and it's close to ten, so I create a clone to train here, while I leave the hotel, and head to the Virast hills, which were not far away.
.
-
.
Right now, I'm in front of a massive waterfall, where I planned to train the Water Stream Rock Smashing Fist, just like Bang did.
.
However, now that I have this cloning ability, I'll just have a clone do it. After I created the clone and left it/me here to train, I made my way over to the 'Shakrus' clans compound.
.
On my way there, I checked the menu again, but this time, I went to the mission tab.
.
I see my major mission, Energy Fanatic, and another one that says, 'Daily Workout'.
.
Tapping on the quest called daily workout, I see a quest screen.
.
[Daily Quest: Daily Workout
Details: Do 100 sit-ups, push-ups, squats, and a 10 kilometer run. 0/100 sit-ups, 0/100 push-ups, 0/100 squats, 10/10 kilometers.
Reward: 5 Exp
Penalty: Sent to penalty zone
Time Limit: Until the end of the current day]
(A/N : Think of Solo Leveling's penalty zone.)
.
I nod after reading the quest.
.
'So, even the system says I should train my body.'
.
Smirking, I stop, drop, and do the basic exercises.
.
-
.
I'm standing in front of the 'Shakrus' clans compound right now, as I use my senses to look all over the place.
.
While looking around with my senses, I find a place that's blanked out, like its not even there.
.
'I assume that's some kind of barrier.'
.
'Well if they got something to hide, I find it as my job to go find whatever it is they want to hide.'
.
I think while smirking, and walking back to the hotel.
.
I find sharing senses with more than one body kind of cool, as I feel the water beating down on one clone, and waves of Yin and Yang swarming to the other.
.
'Heh, this life is gonna be the best.'

How to have fun in an apocalypse (Rewrite)
After spending an unsavory amount of time in hell, our protagonist finally manages to escape the place that had kept him captive for so long... again. Unfortunately, even after plotting and planning for years, he ends up in a place not much different from the burning and agonizing Tartarus he once had to call home. Guts, blood, and carnage start to reign over Earth as soon as he set foot in it, much to his dismay. What use is it to cry over spilled milk, though? Tired of the monotony of endless torture, he steps into the world intending to have as much fun as possible. While others might try to raid the Orc Lord with as many people as possible, why not challenge him to an arm-wrestling tournament? The power of friendship will surely be on his side. Why hide from the big, bad wolf in one of your houses if wearing camo in plain sight should have the same effect? Now, making friends and going on adventures would be perfectly fine, if it wasn't for the fact that he hides a few more secrets than one might think at first. This is a complete rewrite! Due to being unsatisfied with the previous version, I have decided to work the story up, beginning from the older chapters! Version 2.0 includes: - enhanced writing and editorial skills - additional information and aspects to characters - minor deviation from storyline and improvements
