Super Soldier System 10 First Plunder

"System?"

(Killed 1 Professional a.s.sa.s.sin gained 101 exp. (101/200)

"Yes, finally got some exp, level 2 here i come, but first let's check him!"

I opened the door to the room and looked to the left of my feet, there, i found a man covered in a cloak dead in a puddle of his own blood with eyes and mouth wide open in shock with 5 gunshots to the torso turning it into a mangled mess.

"s.h.i.+t, i just realized, how am i gonna clean this up?"

(Don't worry Host, i got this)

The corpse and the blood then all disappeared.

"You're quite handy in a murder"

(I am the Super Soldier System, of course id have something for cleaning up corpses)

"Oh yeah"

I then turned my attention to the bullet holes.

"s.h.i.+t, this holes look around an 2-inches wide, what did you do to Luxus System?!"

(Must be from my special propellant and the bullet material)

"Special propellant?"

(Of course, do you think id use normal gunpowder for Luxus, i got some inspiration by inspecting every combustible item in the storehouse, too bad normal made guns can't handle the it's power and it's loud as heck so it's impractical for use in ordinary arms, Luxus could handle it though, this is the benefit of customized guns Host, more firepower!)

"Ok, ok your the greatest, now... how do i plunder again, you said that i have some special physique or something?"

(Ah right, ahem, Do you wish to plunder?)

"Yes"

(Processing... Done)

(Skills Gained)

(Faceless(Innate): You are but a faceless face in a crowd of faceless people. Decreased Presence)

(Chameleon(Active): You blend in to your surroundings like a chameleon. Decreased Presence, Decreased Enemy visibility towards you)

Life Force: +91

Memories downloaded.

"Hold it, HOLD it, explain this to me in detail System"

(Sure, the first thing's you get once you plunder is their skills, both innate and active, innate is just a fancier way to say pa.s.sive skill, but these are incredibly rare while active skills are skills that can be pa.s.sed on and have to be activated to be used, while life force is the expected remaining life span of the plundered enemy converted into energy, its only use is for healing and finally their memories, remember host, the brain is just an organic computer so i can easily get their data)

"I played enough games to know what skills are and life force seems to be really useful but, memories really?"

I asked the system doubtful of his sayings.

(Yes, don't believe me, i can pull a video of his memories right now)

As the System had said he pulled up a video screen in front of me.

(This is from the last hour)

System then played it, what came to view was what seemed to be an interior of a carriage then turned to look at a burly man with a square jaw and a beard.

"You wait here, if i don't come back in 2 hours you get away from here"

"Got that, big bro"

"Good"

The video was shown in first person view of the cloaked man, what happened next was that the cloaked man jumped out the carriage and scaled the wall facing my window with a grappling hook.

For you to understand let me explain the layout of the palace, it has an approximate 100,000 square meters of land area and is basically a rectangular shaped building made of marble with at most two stories if count the height of the throne room, what, were you expecting an intricate and grand design, nope thats reserved for mage towers that draw in mana from the second source of mana, spirit veins, most of the n.o.bility own at least one tower and mostly stay there cooped up in whatever they do, that is true for my parents and sister too, they are mostly at the tower cultivating while the former stayed here for his physique less body cannot handle too much of a concentration of mana. So the jist of it is the The Royal Palace is mostly ceremonial like the, like The Throne Room, now put a rectangle in a compa.s.s, the thinner sides are both facing East to West while the wider parts are facing North and South, now the entrance to the palace is located in the East, where you'll immediately be greeted by the throne room, the throne room has 8 doors that lead deeper to the interior of the palace, three in each side walls and two flank the throne, going through the side wall doors will both greet you with a corridor of large windows, marble statues, paintings and all kinds of different arts flank the halls, while going through the one's that flank the throne will lead you to a corridor that splits the building in half, if you go straight it will lead you to the kitchen, go left or right you'll be at an intersection of corridors with doors that lead outside, at the end of the southern corridor is my room and at the end of the northern corridor is the private dining room got that?

And so we go back to the story.

"How the h.e.l.l did he get past the magic defenses..."

(Um, Host you might wanna see this, we got a familiar face)

"Familiar?"

The System then pulled another video screen.

(This was from a day ago)

The scene in the video is that of an desserted alley in the night, it's wet, dark and stinks. Soon the sound of small footsteps draw closer to the alley.

"You're late"

Said the cloaked man to the small silhouette.

"Im sorry had to take care of the b.a.s.t.a.r.d because he tripped"

'That voice?!'

As if confirming my thoughts the small hooded figure took off her hood.

"Sophie?!"
