Warlock of War: My Ares System

346 Teacher Quest: Lu Bu (24)

"First of all… the thing I'm most curious about is how this even works," I muttered under my breath while picking myself up.

I briskly brushed the dirt off of my pants and shirt and walked down the bustling streets of this now-thriving trading center.

"Okay… it should work like this… I'm assuming…"

I stretched my finger out, pointing and touching both of the skills I wanted to fuse together. But, it didn't seem that easy as nothing really happened as soon as I slid my finger across both skills.

Still, I had no directions meaning I had to figure this all out by myself, but to be honest, I felt I had already grasped it, and as I stretched out both of my fingers, a slight smirk appeared on my face.

My left and right index fingers touched both of the skills I wanted to fuse, most likely making me look like a crazy person, but if I could fuse both of these skills together… then that would be way too overpowered.

Both skills shimmered in their sockets, a golden glow enveloping the rest of my status, disintegrating it and letting both skills to just hang there, floating gently in the air.

VWOOM

Suddenly, I felt a tug on my chest, both skills vibrating like they were amidst a magnitude nine earthquake.

Their quaking aura almost seemed to spread to me as I was forced to back away and let both skills fly up into the air, way past the clouds, and seemingly into the forces of space itself.

I just stood there, looking up at the sky, attempting to see if something was wrong. I mean, those two skills were precious to me, and if they just disappeared due to my experimentation, then I wouldn't be able to forgive myself.

My smile widened as I looked at the fuse skill, its golden body gently shimmering onto me as it floated down from the clouds.

But then suddenly, I felt a tug on the back of my shirt, and as I spun around, ready to defend myself, I saw Wu with a panicked look.

"You fucking idiot… come on… follow me…" She gritted her teeth, swiveling her head around as if trying to watch out for something or someone.

"What? What happened?" I asked, running behind her as we turned into her lab.

She immediately locked the door and grabbed me by my collar yet again, tossing me against the wall and slamming the piece of wood behind me with her hand.

"What was this called? Uhhh… a kabedon-"

"Shut the fuck up for a second…." She muttered, silencing both herself and me as a somewhat glowing light descended from the sky just outside of our lab.

It vibrated just like that of the skills I had fused, and as the sound of a shattering piece of glass nearly destroyed my eardrums, I felt a piece of me vibrate… like something was trying to get out.

[Skills: [Spear Coating] [Berserk Coating] [Empower] [Scout] [Ancient Torterras Tongue] [Assimilation] [Miasma and Mana Manipulation]

I looked over at my normal skills, seeing my new skill but also noticing it was vibrating greatly, as if it was trying to break its way out of my status itself.

It hurt. It really fucking hurt, but I kept quiet as the presence of whatever was just outside our door was so powerful that it made me nearly want to throw up.

Wu was shivering with fear, but as soon as the door cracked open, she let out a long breath and tightened her muscles.

A creepy smile entered, two slim eyes immediately locking onto Wu's face while I brushed a bit of the dirt off of my shirt and regained my composure.

It looked to be a man in his early twenties with long white hair, two slim golden pupils, and a smile that stretched all the way from one ear to the other.

In his pale white hands, he held two boxes, shimmering with a golden light, and as my eyes widened, his eyes locked onto me.

"Hm? What's wrong? These look familiar to you?"

"They're mine. Please ignore him…." Wu immediately stepped up, and as she held both hands behind her back, I could tell both were shaking with fear.

"I've already warned you many times not to do such a thing. It wakes me up from my slumber… but what is also strange is that I felt an anomaly. Something else within my domain… also, are you going to introduce me to your friend over here?"

"Orion, this is Chronos… the god of time and space."

I shivered under those words, and as an immediate sense of panic began to spread through my body, the man in front of me couldn't help but smile even wider.

"So you are the anomaly. Not like you needed to do much else… the time around you is quaking… all the time," He muttered, almost out of breath as he stared at me.

"Please don't mind him. This is my fault. I taught him the technique and completely forgot to tell him the rules of space. If you could forgive us just this one time-"

"Uh huh… *snap*,"

He snapped both of his fingers, causing everything around me to freeze. The bubbling and burning of incense, the cawing of birds and creaking of crickets, and most importantly, the shaking of Wu.

"Now, let's have an undisturbed conversation. You are an anomaly in my domain of time. You interfered with my domain of space by fusing two skills together… way before mana could fully assimilate into the world, but I forgive you just this once. I'm a very forgiving god," He smiled but then chuckled lightly before creaking open his lips again. "I'm just kidding… I'm just a lazy god with an unsurmountable amount of power… it's truly pitiful," He smiled even wider.

"So you want to know why I'm in this timeline, correct?

"Of course."
