Chapter 76 - Carry Him
“Yes, but is there really no other way to stop this?” asked Riyah. Allen shook his head. Riyah sighed dejectedly.
“Isn’t this pointless, what’s there to gain just by dodging spells.” just as Riyah had said that, a bright light flashed atop Ken’s sleeping form, the group shielded their face with their hands to not get blinded.
When the light had subsided everyone looked up to see a magic circle devoid of runes and patterns, just two circles vertically placed where the bright light had occurred.
“Well, it’s about to get interesting.” said Allen, he positioned himself in a stance as if he was about to enter a fight, with his blade pointed at the center, the other four did the same as well, leaving the adults and the other three confused as to what they are doing.
Glen just widened his stance, for with the Princess on his back, what he could only do was to avoid the upcoming attacks.
“Ready yourselves, it’s about to start!” shouted Allen. His old group of friends responded in a yell to signify their approval, the rest, looked lost.
It was fifteen minutes after now, another fifteen to end Ken’s bad sleeping habit.
-Inside Ken’s subconscious fifteen minutes earlier-
“Oh, so this is what I had missed.” said Ken and read the contents of his healing spells.

“A little more and this is going to become an actual game skills.” said White, thinking how absurd his host uses game settings into his spells.
“No worries, it’s not even like I’ll be able to read out my passives when conscious.” said Ken cheekily. If White has eyes right now, it would have rolled into the back of his head.
“And besides, the features are going to be very fun.” added Ken. I know my host has balanced both his good and bad qualities through whatever he did, but this, is a nightmare to his enemies and a blessing to his friends, White thought watching at Ken’s almost sinister look.
Ken swiped the page to the left after smiling to himself.

“Do you really wish to be some kind of character of a game.” said White, sketchy on the effects of the ‘enchant’ passive.

“At least there’s something that will hold you back.” said White.
“Oh, the last one? Hmmm… Fair enough.” said and swiped again. Look at this guy, despite being all this he calls that setback fair? White thought.
“You know you’re thoughts or clearly your mood is decipherable for me even here you know.” said Ken.
“I do, and I know that it makes no difference but talking to myself helps when you have a clearly absurd one.” replied White, indicating Ken’s trail of thought.
“Ahaha, peace.” said Ken holding out a peace sign, he swiped to the left.

“Exactly when do you use shields?” asked White.
“I don’t know maybe the time will come?” replied Ken, White was quiet for a moment pondering, sensing his friend’s shift in mood Ken scratched the back of his neck sheepishly and made a peace sign, then swiped the page again.
He’s made that peace sign again, thought White, confused as to how he should feel, perplexed or ridiculous.

“Surprisingly the first three spells doesn’t start with your iconic ‘Enchant -or any other element- Magic’ phrase.” remarked White.
“Yeah and I don’t know why.” said Ken, suddenly drifting into thought as his face reminds White of someone craving for food, but a serious one.
“I think we have checked all of the spells I have, let me check up on the other tabs. Open Talent Tree Tab, or more like recheck.” said Ken, he dragged window with an outline of a tree with five leaves in front of him, and he touched each leaf for the description and the names to show up.
[ Talent Tree.

2. Flash Reflex: able to respond to stimulus in nanoseconds.
3. Cultivation: allows increase in both magical and physical strength/ power.
4. Adaptation: ???
5. Boundary: ??? ]
“I’m still unable to access description about my other two talents? Why?” Ken looked at White at his side.
“I don’t know either, must be something with the update I made, and with all the different and useful information stored in your memories of your past life which is enormous,
It will be hard on pinpointing which type of information I used for you to not see the description of your other two talents.” replied White.
“Hmm (holds his chin with his right hand), I do have many experiences when it comes to designing systems, nah, I shall not dwell on this any longer, Open Concept Window.” another window opened beside the talent tree window, the other windows accessed by Ken are still open.
[ Concept.

Note: other types of concept are available to be added to the roster. ]
“Ooooh, nice feature.” said Ken.
“Ugh, this was what I was afraid of, you’re oh so flexible ability.” White remarked.
“Yeah, you’re right, but isn’t there no need to worry?” said Ken, smiling at White’s direction.
“I suppose, Yes.” replied White. Ken proceeded to arrange the four windows opened in a big square where all four windows are situated, and admired his handy work.
“I’m so good.” said Ken.
“Don’t get all prided up of this now Ken.” replied White warningly.
“Yes master.” said Ken jokingly, but still held truth in his words.
“Aren’t you not gonna open the other four windows?” asked White. Ken looked at him and back at the four windows.
“Nahh, this would suffice for now, besides opening the quest, notification, customization, and map windows, will just clump up my view.” replied Ken.
“Seriously?” said White, frustratedly. “Ugh why do I even bother. Wait won’t you at the very least view the other quests or missions added?”
“There are too many missions to even count, and they provide small mastery points. Oh yeah, I almost forgot, I want to create a page of the regression of mastery points, can you do that?” asked Ken.
“I can, but I won’t make another window, let’s go with another page, I’ll put it on the last slide of the skills/ spells window.” replied White. The skills window showing the spells of enchant, swiped to the left to reveal a blank page that is slowly filled with words and numbers.
{ Mastery Regression.
1 - Level 1 (1 pt.)
200 - Level 2 (40 pts.)
600 - Level 3 (32 pts.)
1200 - Level 4 (20 pts.)
2500 - Level 5 (20 pts.)
5500 - Level 6 (20 pts.)
Note:
- numbers indicated first are the numbers needed to level up a skill, numbers inside the parentheses are the points given for every successful execution of the same spell ten times.
- skill mission points are directly incorporated to a skill of the corresponding skill mission, additional mission points that do not correspond to any type of skill are free to be used by the user as they wishes. }
“There, how’s that?” Ken read the contents of the note for the second time and nodded his head at White’s notes.
“This is good, and now I understand why it was so hard to level up all the spells and skills, but I don’t have any qualms, I just need to exert more effort, and more effort, means more training.” Ken smiled to himself while White sighed inwardly at Ken’s eagerness to train.
-Fifteen minutes after-
“Have I said that we need to carry Ken back to camp?” Flin who was beside him nodded.
“Yeah, why?” Flin asked treading the flowers carefully as to not trample on them and avoided a lightning bolt by jumping to the side, remembering how right as everyone was about to fall asleep, Allen had given out instructions what to do once this phenomenon was over.
“Just wanted to make sure I had mentioned that earlier.” said Allen. Flin raised his right brow in question, he shook his head and proceeded to mind his own business.
“Quick question, how do we carry Ken exactly?” asked Flin to Allen in the midst of dodging and the chaos around them.
Allen drifted into thought while dodging spells, either by back-flipping, side-stepping, cart-wheeling and other all kinds of evasive means, Allen just avoided one spell before coming to a conclusion.
“We’ll have to ask him.” said Allen pointing at the sleeping form, now Flin’s even more confused. What if we don’t have to carry him anymore? Flin thought.
