"Man do I have a lot of skills," Sam said to himself, he knew he learned how to do a lot of things over the years but seeing them listed before him was eye opening.
"Yes it is quite the impressive number, this is the blank slate of the skill record. You customize it to put the skills into categories and subcategories. Please choose a skill as an example for the next part." Sam the skill he used the most.
Sense manipulation
Upper mortal rank
Rare
A skill used to control the five main senses of the physical form.
master, upgradable.
"What an excellent skill possess dear lord," the voice sounded real happy about this, "skills are given ranks based on their full potential power. Some skills are capable of raising their rank via an upgrade. How a skill is upgraded depends on the skill itself. The rarity of a skill depends on how hard it is to find/learn/create the skill. For example, your sense manipulation skill is rare because while there are skills to manipulate a singular sense this one allows for all the main five."
Sam hummed as he listened to the explanation and watched as daniel played another min-game for the second task to earn the chieftess trust. When the explanation ended sam followed the voice's instructions to make his categories. For now, he made three categories battle, life, and magic.
"Now that you have finished with the skill record the next function is the shop, please open it, dear lord."
"Okay we will have to do something about this dear lord thing," sam told the voice before he opened the shop.
Sam was surprised by how the looked, it looked like an ordinary website for a store before you looked at the items, "what the hell is a sun fragment, oh been awhile since I've seen lightning in a bottle, didn't know it came in black." sam looked over the trending section before looking over the side menu.

Lords only
The list of categories on the side was quite long but what really drew his attention was the lord only section. But he decided to wait before he let his curiosity take hold.
"As you can see the store has many things for you to buy, while there limit to want you can buy some do to your level as a lord, some due to the fact that your planet isn't ready for them, some just aren't safe for you to own at this point in time."
"To purchase something you must register an account, which I will help you with later, pay in a galactic level currency and then have it delivered, later on, you will be able to pick it up from the store."
"Trust her daniel, she looks like she could kill you but is really a cinnamon roll," Sam told daniel as he talked to a rather by that he meant extremely dangerous and crazy looking 20-year-old women, that was currently holding a knife to daniel charters throat.
"First of all, did you just meme," Daniel said as he turned to look at his friend with an eyebrow raised "second of all, she is holding a knife to my throat" the other eyebrow joined the first.
"Her eyes give away how nervous she is, she has never done this before. And she isn't even holding the knife correctly I don't think she could do any real damage to you anyway, to herself self a lot." sam sated and daniel had to agree with him she looked like she was about to hurt herself before she hurt him.
"Anyway, the store is definitely interesting and even more so useful." sam commented to the voice.
"It certainly is dear lord, but a piece of advice order a test item, as your planet is unregistered in many places in the universe, so it is unknown how long it will take the store it delivers your package or much it'll cost really causes the weight of your planet's money is unknown
"Noted", sam said before he stretched out a bit before he grabbed the rest of his now room temperature juice. "So the job of the lord of lust?"
"Of course dear lord, the main job of the lord of lust is to keep the beast of lust from breaking out of its sell there are as many ways to do that as there are ways for the beast to break out. The beast most used method is to amplify then absorb the lust of creature in its range to power itself up to force its way out of the cage, you were supposed to experience the beast doing this on a worldwide scale in the fake world but you escaped before the companion could show it to you"
"You can interfere with this by beating the beast to the punch and deal with lust in any way you see fit, By absorbing it yourself dispersing it or destroying it. It is entirely up to your choice."
"For now I will alert you to lust that is in danger of being affected by the beast in your range until you are able to sense it yourself." the way the voice sounded gave sam the impression that it was kneeling before him.
"Thank you!" for a moment after he said the voice was quiet before it quickly tried to tell him that that thanking it was unnecessary, witch sam ignored by asking what daniel felt like for lunch in maybe an hour.
"Not really in a picky mood, he said as he returned to the chieftess after finishing the third task for her, "do you know any good restaurants in the area?" he asked in return.

"A couple, in a twenty-minute drive range around my house there three restaurants I think you might like, there a nice Mexican restaurant that's run by a couple nice couple with a few dogs waiting tables, there as a sweet restaurants run by some real peppy girls, and the last one a family runs out the front of their house the foods good but you can't tell what's on the menu until you get there." sam told daniel as he watched the cut scene of the chieftess getting a massage mostly clothes, not that she was wearing much, to begin with.
Daniel hummed for a moment before announcing his decision, "let's go to the last one, can you tell me the address"
"Yeah it on 9806 providence lane, it's called roulette house," Sam told his friend before he went quite.
"Oh this is definitely a great place, it reviews are through the roof why-" daniel shut his mouth in a moment as he saw that sam had fallen asleep. Pushing the urge to laugh at his drooling friend he muted the t.v. and turned back to the game.
As he slept sam talked in his sleep, something half-listened to as when sam talked in his sleep it was either funny or something about his past.
"Je suis désolé de t'avoir fait saigner, mon ami, j'espère qu'un jour je le pourrai avant d'être donné."sam mumbled before rolling over.
"I have no idea what he just said." daniel said before he moved onto the next test so he could earn more of the chieftess trust.
Maybe about an hour and forty minutes after sam fell asleep the emerald-eyed teen shot awake, daniel turn to him and opened his mouth "good mor-" only to have to dodge the pillow saw was trying to smash his head with. "Dude what the hell" he shouted after dodging causing sam to blink dazed before sam shook his head and put the pillow down.
"Sorry," yawn Sam rubbed his eyes and pinched the bridge of his nose before mumbling"bad dream, my blood and battle lust woke up for a moment there." daniel's face showed confusion as he was unable to make out what sam said.
"Anyway," Sam said as he stood off the couch and stretched "let's go get lunch" then he walked upstairs to grab some socks and shoes.
When he had returned downstairs daniel had turned off the game and was standing at the door. they quickly went out the door and into daniel's car. After they buckled up daniel turned on the car it pulled itself out of the driveway and headed down the road.
While the car was moving sam and daniel talked about mostly nonsense and a bit about the few plans for the break. Daniels plans mostly centered around sam his family, sam due to what happened last night now consisted of training and relearning some of his skills.
Daniel asked how he was planning to train and responded that he was going to do a bit of everything and a few things he couldn't tell him as it would make him an accomplice. Daniel shrugged his shoulders as that wasn't the first time he said that and probably wouldn't be the last.
When they arrived daniel could see that it was exactly as sam described, the family were serving people out the front of their house, and they really were in the front yard of the house were several tables with hovering umbrellas covering them, some occupied with people eating or chatting, one person was reading.
A boy and a girl were walking in and out of the house bring food out or dirty dishes in, the two were clearly related. After they sat down the brother brought them a menu. Daniel spent a couple of minutes choosing what he wanted sam choose after looking over the menu once.
After they ordered sam pulling a browser app on his hollo-bracelet to do some research, daniel took another hit on his rabbit game.
When their food arrived sam wasted no time digging into his chicken parmesan, while daniel hesitantly tasted his chicken salad, then dived into when his taste buds deemed it good.
They ate in mostly silence, that was interrupted for sam by the voice. "Dear lord I hate to interrupt your meal but I detect high-level lust in your vicinity."
"What direction?" sam thought not looking up from his meal.
"What you would call 3-4 o'clock?" it sounded unsure but sam could tell that was more if it was saying it right.
Tilting his head in the direction given sam saw three people, dark hair male dressed for the gym a light-haired female dressed for the office and female teen dressed for a date. "Witch one?" sam asked.
"The older female" was the prompt answer. Sam focused in on her and it took him a moment to realize he knew her, but the outfit threw him off.
"Is something wrong?" daniel asked his friends. Sam turned to him and shook his head before speaking, "nothing I know her just didn't realize I did for a moment because of her outfit." he stopped to take a bit of his food.after swallowing he answering the question written on daniels face, "she lives in my neighborhood I see her sometime when I go walking, but when I do she usually wears a crop top and stained sweatpants looking like she just got out of bed. So that appearance is kind of a surprise."
"I can see that" daniel then turn back to his salad. Sam laughed a bit before turning to his food as well.
"So it seems I have my first target as a lord, ahh this brings back memories, I should renew that license. No, I should renew all my licenses. My driver's license is going to be the hardest but first. How do I go about her lust?"
Sam spent the rest of the meal planning how he would deal with her lust. But before he made any of his plans concrete he needed to know one thing, "how do I absorb lust?"
"That is simple my lord at your current level you just need to come in contact with the person and later on you will be able to summon the lust to you!"
"So physical contact is the key, that makes things simple yet difficult, hope I don't end up needing a ski mask." sam thought as the plates were taken away. "So," sam said eyeing daniel "what do you think of the food?"
"Pretty good, and pretty cheap too" daniel answered before grabbing a toothpick and removing a piece of chicken from between his teeth. Sam just gave a small smile before he reopened the browser on his bracelet.
When the digital bill arrived sam and daniel stared each other in the eye for a moment before they each threw out a fist as they called out
"Rock"
"Paper"
"I win this time," sam said before electronically paying for their meal. Food paid for daniel headed for the car while sam walked over to his target. "When I come in contact with her will the absorption start immediately and how long it will take," he asked the voice.
"Yes it starts automatically and the time needed depends on the individual, but with your growth as a lord the time needed will become less and less, the only restriction is that you must touch her body."
"Alright," sam thought before he tapped the lady on her shoulder. Immediately she spun around her left hand in her pocket, even though she was smiling sam could tell she was ready to strike. "Hello miss" he greeted with a gentle smile and his hands in plain view" I'm not sure if you've seen me but we live in the same neighborhood." she looked confused for a moment before she smiled at him.
"Oh I've seen you around once or twice, but never got the chance to greet you young man so let me do it now, Hello my name is Francine Cabral Neves may I have yours?"
"Samuel vegal, do not call me young man" sam held out his hand to shake," but it is a pleasure to make your acquaintance." Francine took sam hand and they shook. While they shook hands sam notice two things one warm energy flowing into his hand, two a small bar on the corner of his right eye.
When the handshake ended sam said a few words to her before telling her goodbye, and heading to daniel's car.
As he buckled himself in sam asked what held him up, "nothing just a greeting." he said with a smile.
