I saw the additional effect on that skill and it made me just look blankly at that change for a few moments.
At first glance, it wasn't only a big change, but when you look at it objectively, then it was a two in one skill which could be upgraded simultaneously at once. Other than that, the effect itself wasn't bad.
'I can just throw a weapon to kill a distant object and call the weapon back to me if it is not that far,' I thought as a smile creeped on my face.
"Stop smiling. It's creepy," I heard Rhea speaking in annoyance. Coming out of my stupor, I then said,"Thanks Rhea. The effect is wonderful."
There was a thankful smile on my face and Rhea turned quiet for a few moments before speaking,"I-It's fine!"
After that, I pondered a little before looking at the two other things I got from the novice pack.
[Basic Life Plant]
[The most basic life plant. Allows the user to take the stored Health Energy inside the plant to heal himself.
Maximum amount which can be stored: 100
Regeneration rate: 1HP per hour]
[Basic Energy Plant]
[The most basic energy plant. Allows the user to take the stored All Purpose Energy inside the plant to fill his own.
Maximum amount which can be stored: 100
Regeneration rate: 1 Energy per hour]
"Hmmm.. not that great, but still better than nothing," I spoke and then turned to Rhea as I asked,"Is there anything else left for me to know?"
Rhea spoke,"No. All that you need to know has been explained."
I kept my eyes closed for a few moments as I pondered deep before looking at her,"what do you think I should do? As the general manager of the shop, do you have anything you can suggest to me? Like saving Cronas for a particular skill or something?
The amount of armor, weapons and skills the shop had were quite a lot, but honestly, most of them were too costly. So, I wondered if I should set my eyes on something not too far.
"Hmmmm.. normally I shouldn't interfere but I guess it won't hurt to guide you towards that skill," she spoke as she flew towards the skill section. I looked at her as she then asked me to type a certain name and once I entered it a skill came in front of me.
[Warp(Common)]
[Allows the user to bend space-time and move from one place to another using Time Energy points. Note that the user's density should not be more than 5 times from the place where warped to.
Effect: Distance traveled in distance in meters/100 Time points]
[Cost: 75,000 Cronas]
"Oh! Something like that would be really helpful but.. with the limited amount of Time Points I can use, will it be really worth it?" I asked as I looked at her, but she just answered,
"You asked me for my opinion. I gave you a choice. The rest is up to you." I then pondered a bit before looking around and then speaking,"sure. I guess I will keep this in my mind then."
Then I took the [Basic Energy Plant] and the [Basic Life Plant] with me into my second storage space and placed them in a corner before coming out of the room back to where I was.
I then moved out of the apartment and then open the quest section of status and found 2 new [Side Quests]
[New Side Quest!]
[Side Quest: Free the area from zombies!]
[The zombies are roaming freely all around the ground floor, parking area and the surrounding park of the building.

[Side Quest: Clear the basement!]
[Something unholy has taken birth within the basement. If it evolves any further, it may bring doom to the surviving mankind.
Kill the Lesser C-Grade Zombie before it evolves into a C-Grade Zombie
Time Limit: 4 Days 5 Hours 12 minutes
Reward: Golden Key to the Dungeon of Libra!]
My eyes opened up wide as I observed the quest in front of me. A lesser-C Grade Zombie has already arrived. Isn't this kind of too fast?historical
I gulped at the notification as I tightened my grip on the knife that I was holding and began walking towards the doorway to the ground floor. However, before I could reach the door, I heard a voice from behind.
"Michael!" Caroline spoke in a loud voice as she saw me walking towards the door. I turned to her with my face still in a bit of horror, though I quickly wiped that expression and asked her,
"What happened?"
"That.. all the people have collected all the soil and are waiting for your instructions on the top floor," she said as she looked at me and I pondered on the odds of her following me if I tried to send her back up on her own.
"Sure. Let's go," I spoke as I moved towards her and, reaching her, I kissed her before we both moved up, hand in hand. While I do want to take her help, I don't want her to get into any kind of difficult situation.
Let's settle everything up there before I start my hunt on the ground floor. After I am done with that, I will see if I am strong enough to reach down the basement or not. Until then.. we can only wait.
