I looked at the two upgraded Skills and noticed the basic changes in them. With the level up the skills went, [Seconds Space] now allowed me to have a wider room, almost about the size of a small house and the time ratio turned to 6.
As for the [Eyes of the Time Keeper], the cost of the two abilities decreases while the first basic ability doesn't change at all.
Previously, I had 10 skill points saved and with this now I had 6 left. I could upgrade the [Second Space] once again, but I decided to stop here.
Then I turned towards my stats and added all my leftover stat points into it.

With this, all my stats reached 14 minimum except Charisma cause I didn't find any reason to upgrade it right now.
I then sighed before checking everything all over again, wondering if there is anything left out which I can still look at.
[Copy (Special)]
[Allows the user to copy any of the skill in his arsenal
Currently Copied Skill: None
Note: Once the user locks a particular skill to copy, he can't change the skill for another 24 hours]
'Which should I go with? Hmmm.. all right, let's go with that for now,' I thought before setting up the skill which I needed to copy.
Then I looked at the basement gate in front of me that went to the parking lot below the building. Currently, my main enemy was sitting there, and I gulped before pondering a little and then thought of something.
'Hmmm, this should take a few minutes so,' I circled around the building as I ran back into the apartment from the Park gate and entered the first room before closing from the inside.
Sitting on the sofa right at the front..
[Second Space]
I entered the [Shop] before I saw Rhea floating up there.
Looking at her, I asked with a bit of a hurried look,
"Does that shop have anything like a Metallic bat or something? Something that isn't too costly. Something that wouldn't break easily."
She then simply flew towards the weapons section and spoke,"enter 'Obsidian Clubs' and set the grade range from Common to Rare."
Hearing her, I followed her command before a couple of options came in front of me.
[Black Club of the Doomsday Survivor(Uncommon)]
[One of the best blunt weapons that any survivor would like to carry. It has a high durability and strength and allows the user to kill anything within a couple of hits.
Special Effects: +5 Strength
Limits: Minimum 15 Strength Required to wield the weapon
ATK: 70 :: Durability: 500
Cost: 4000 Cronas]
[Blood Rage Club(Rare)]
[Cast by the general of Blood warriors, this holds the power to steal the blood of enemies to get its own power. Though it is a double-edged sword, as it also continuously takes the user's blood to keep its high power.
Special Effects: Allows the user to take in the power of other beings killed by the weapon and temporarily grow the weapon/user much stronger(Maximum 3 times). However, the strength of the weapon will start depleting for prolonged disuse.
ATK: 105 :: Durability: 1250
Limits: When the user doesn't give enough blood to the weapon, it will start eating the power of the User. Loss of 1% HP per minute.
Cost: 6500 Cronas]
[Metallic Nailed Bat(Common)]
[A common Bat properly nailed and crafted by an average Blacksmith. It isn't the best, but does the work.
Special Effects: +2 Constitution
Limits: Minimum Strength: 8
ATK: 45 :: Durability: 150
Cost: 3000 Cronas]
There were many more bats, at least a dozen more, but these three caught my attention more. They were almost within the range of what I could afford right now and also were the ones I could use right now.
"There is something I needed to ask." I looked at Rhea with a bit of questioning gaze and continued,"what do you think about the skill [Time Catcher]?"
It was one of the skills that I never really used. I did upgrade it a few times to check its effect, but honestly, it wasn't really useful in any case.
I could literally take Cronas from the Zombies using the System and heck, I don't even know where I could use that skill at. I had thought about selling that skill, but I wanted to consult Rhea first.
"[Time Catcher]? The one that allows you to take Cronas from living beings?" She asked, and I nodded and then she pondered a little before speaking,
"It is a nice skill.. but I don't think you can use it anymore. Maybe if you upgrade it to Rare.. or not. You will need at least Unique rank to make use of that skill."
Confused, I looked at her as I asked,"why isn't it usable anymore?"
"Because your world has been infested with Cessation energy. Everything that is considered 'Alive' by that skill of yours is now 'Dead.' From Plants to animals to anything that is there, everything, even though they are living and walking, they are considered dead.
At the Unique version of that skill, you get an effect that allows you to take Cronas from different timelines, so there was a chance, but I doubt you could reach that.. or even work on that. I mean, you will probably either be dead by that time or already found another means to take Cronas."
I looked at her and nodded before asking,"so I should sell that skill?" and she answered,"yeah. Though the end decision depends on you."
I pondered a bit before nodding before proceeding to put my ability to the selling section.
[Are you sure you want to sell [Time Catcher(Level 5)] skill for 3000 Cronas?]
'Well, that's not too bad,' I thought as I proceeded to sell the skill and gained another 3000 Cronas.
[Total Cronas: 7773]
I then looked at the weapons tab and proceeded to buy the [Black Club] for 4000 Cronas. It wasn't cheap, but I felt like it was worth it.
Wielding the weapon, I first decided to check it in the trial room as I visited inside it.
The Trial room was wide open, and I turned to Rheo, who also entered with me here.
"Well. I guess it's about time I give you the Trial room tutorial as well.
I'll keep it basic. If you don't understand anything, you may ask questions.
So, first, you can't use any other weapon here than the one you brought for trial.
Second, you can choose a max of 2 enemies to fight at once.
Third, the stats of the enemies you choose will be reduced or increased to exactly yours for a fair trial.
Fourth, you can only choose those enemies that you have defeated or killed before.
Fifth, you can have as many trials as you want.
And finally Sixth, whatever happens in the Trial room won't affect you in any form.
Also, you can't use any other skills here as well."
I looked at her for a while and nodded as I jotted down the points in my mind. Then, recalling all the enemies, I decided to bring [Crawler] Zombie out as he was faster than the others.
Rhea helped me out with the basic settings before moving to a corner as she watched a [Crawler] Zombie coming in front of me.
I then saw the Zombie immediately getting on its four, before it started circling around me at a rapid speed. It even crawled up the walls of the Trial room around me and I had to continuously turn to not let it go out of my sight.
Soon it moved towards me at a rapid speed.historical
Preparing to fight, I tightened my grip and looked at the way it was coming, I waited for the perfect timing and..
-BOOOOM!!!!
I hit it as hard as I could, blasting it to the wall as his head burst into smithereens.
"Huh?!" Confused, I looked at it for a few moments.. this was a bit too powerful, wasn't it?
"What did you expect? Did you compare that (Uncommon bat) to the ones you have in your world? It was specially forged for killing and surviving. Of course it is going to do its job properly," Rhea scoffed at me with a bit of smirk and I couldn't contain my smile as I kept observing the Bat in my hand.
If I was hesitant about going down the basement.. Now I was looking forward to the battle.
