All-in-One System: All I Need is Erotic Coins



Hymot pulled Damian toward the closet and made a sign for him to stay quiet. He did not quite understand what was happening — Damian heard nothing strange, but he trusted her despite that.

After a few seconds, a bizarre creature stood on the house's door, looking inside to see if there was anyone. Damian glanced through the closet's gap and saw it!

'What the fuck is that thing?' he thought, staring at what looked like a floating undead with a black robe.

He held his breath, Hymot did the same, and after a few seconds, the creature continued its journey down the street, leaving the area.

"That was close! Have any idea what the fuck was that?" Damian asked Hymot after he was sure the creature was far away.

"No idea."

If she did not know, then there was no way Damian had even heard about that thing before. He acknowledged the fact and tried to not feel bad about it.

"Maybe we should go to that library first. If more of that thing is patrolling the area, we might get caught eventually, and both of us have no idea what the thing is or if it is powerful," Damian said.

"You're right. But let's be extra careful from now on."

"Extra careful? I have just the tool for that…."

~~~~

Damian and Hymot were close to each other, both using the invisibility cloak as cover. It was not the most practical thing to have — it hindered their movements as the veil was for only one person — but it was better than getting caught. Plus, Damian enjoyed that his body was close to Hymot, a gorgeous woman slash dragon.

The city streets were like a desert with no sounds or living creatures. That was a good thing considering they had yet to meet with that creature again, but it made them uneasy, and a place too quiet was not ideal.

They went through the streets, ignoring any house, even if they wished to explore it; it was not the right decision. They wanted to get to the royal library, so they had to go inside the massive castle at the city's heart.

It was at a higher area, and the streets started to go up and up until Damian and Hymot were standing right before the castle — or rather, the gate.

Different from all the other gates of the city, that one was closed, yet Damian could still see the bridge on the other side, leading to another gate that would grant access to the castle.

The first thing that came to Damian's mind was to fly using his Telekineses, quickly passing through the gate.

But there were two problems with that: flying would catch the attention of any creature around.

'My cloak could help with that, but why can't I fly?'

The other problem was that Damian could not use his Telekineses! Well, he could use it to do anything, but not flying, and when he tried to control a small piece of slime to go up, it did not work.

Hymot noticed it and said, "It seems there's a barrier that blocks people from flying too high, even objects. So we will have to find another way through…."

She wanted to ask how Damian could control things using his mind or fly but said nothing. Their situation was not the best to speak about each other's lives.

"It has to have another way to enter. See that entrance?" Damian said as he pointed to a corridor near the first gate.

The corridor led to the wall's interior surrounding the castle, presumably where the guards stood to protect from outsiders, yet no one was there anymore.

It wasn't precisely bright inside because all the founts of light were long gone, and the only one, the sun, was gone too, as night came.

"I presume you can see in the dark?" Damian whispered.

"Yes. You?"

"Sadly, no. Do you think it is wise to use a flashlight here?"

"Flashlight? What is that?"

"A thing to create artificial light."

"Whoa, such a thing exists? Answering your question, it isn't a good idea as it will make the enemies see us easier, but you need to see things too, especially once we are inside a library. And probably that thing sees in the dark too."

Damian would use the lantern anyway — no one liked to be kept dark and see nothing — and Hymot had a point.

'That creepy-looking undead creature surely sees in the dark, so why suffer for nothing?'

He grabbed his flashlight and turned it on, "So much better."

Hymot was amazed after she saw the flashlight.

"Let me see it!" she said, grabbing it from Damian's hand and lighting it up the corridor.

"So cool!"

"Now give it back to me! It is not like you need it," Damian said, returning the flashlight.

They kept moving through that corridor, gazing at a few rooms on their left side, mainly where some of the guards slept — which was funny considering they were dragons in a human form, sleeping in cheap beds.

'They have rankings in their society too.'

Damian only glanced at those rooms, looking for something to help them open the gate. The last room before the corridor made a turn had a lever on it.

"It must be it! There's another corridor on the other side of the gate, so we can return and do the same there. Probably two levers open the gate," Damian said.

He was unsure about it, but it made sense, so he entered the room, pulled the lever, and returned to the gate.

There was another corridor, like the one they had explored a few moments ago. Damian and Hymot did the same route, finding another lever in the last room before the corridor turned.

"Did you hear it? I think it is the gate opening!" Hymot said.

"I cannot hear it, but if you say so, let's head back," Damian said.

The senses of a dragon were way higher than Damian's, and that's why she heard the creature back then and the gate. After pulling the second lever, they headed back toward the gate, but at the end of the corridor, right where the exit was, the creature was there, standing.

"What should we do?" Damian said.

There was no other way around it, meaning they would have to fight or wait till the creature left the exit, but Damian did not see that happening so soon, and maybe waiting there too long would bring them even more trouble.

"I think we might have to fight it," Hymot said.

It was not what Damian wanted — fighting an unknown creature was not the best thing to do — but that was the only thing they could do.

"I will face it upfront, and you do something on the back line," Damian said.

Hymot was hurt, so it was not ideal for her to go at first, and she acted more like a support to Damian during the fight, which was not bad either.

Damian moved cautiously towards the end of the corridor, attempting to float silently to catch the creature off guard.

Floating was all he could with the barrier preventing things from going high in the sky, yet that was more than enough. Doing that granted Damian a pleasant surprise.

'This creature is blind!'

They thought the creature would see in the dark, but that was not the case; it was the contrary!

But its advantage was the incredible hearing, and the only reason it had yet to realize Damian was there was because of his floating ability.

'If I get too close, the creature can hear my breathing… I need to kill it with one strike!'

Damian still had tons of free points to use, the fruit of his 'adventures,' and had yet to think of a way to use them. Well, the moment was that one!

'Should I increase my attributes, get myself a new ability, or what?'

The enemy was an undead creature. At that point, Damian's two main focuses were his mental abilities and his Necromancy Book. So why not merge both?

<Puppet Master (Grade 3 <Passive>): Increases the user's ability to control undead creatures by 100%. Allows the user to have three summons at the same time.>

<Price: 100 Erotic Coins>

'Not that cheap, but it will do.;

Damian acquired a specific ability, and as soon as he did, a telepathic connection was established between him and the undead.

His other passive improved the power of his mind control abilities, stacked up with the one aimed to work with the undead.

< Don't attack me>

<Ugggr, ugggr… ugggr?>

'I don't understand this undead language, but this thing won't attack me.'

The undead flew toward Damian as if it knew his location despite being blind.

"What did you do?" Hymot said.

"Hehehe, you won't believe it."

"You're controlling this creature? How?"

"I prefer not to share my secrets. Let's move before more of them arrive, I cannot control many of them."

They passed through the castle's front gate, not knowing the things lying ahead.
