Maki's POV
Congratulations!
You have received a Rank A skill and will now be set as your Main Skill
Note: This Skill cannot be removed
You have 15 minutes left before you return
We will answer some questions concerning the system while you wait
Well sure its better to know more before going then
"What are Main Skills?"(Maki)
Main Skills are skills that has an 85-100% compatibility with the user
A user can freely set their Main Skill through the "System Menu" that can be found in "Safe Points"
So its like a talent or Signature Move found in MMORPG and other types of games, then how come my Skill can't be change?
"Why is my Skill, [Disassemble], cannot be changed?"(Maki)
There are skills which cannot be changed an example of this skills are your [Disassemble] skill, the reason this skills cannot be removed is because they are implemented to the system directly or affect the body of the user itself permanently
So thats why... How can it affect the system or my body. I try to check on it later on when I get back
"Then what are the "Safe Points" which can be found at some places?"(Maki)
Safe Points are areas that prevent monsters upto Rank A
Monsters not capable enough are unable to enter these safe points so it is more important for Beings to enter the safe points to rest
Which means that it is a resting point where we can safely heal ourselves or prepare our items themselves
"How can we open or operate the System Menu?"(Maki)
The System Menu can be opened or operated through thought or Oral command
Please try to say or think "System Menu" and the menu should appear
Hmmm.... well I'll try all right, System Menu
Character InfoSkillsInventoryGroup
It really works like a Menu, it really feels like this is becoming more and more of a game huh?
You will now be returned to your previous location
Good Luck
"Wai-"

~~~Third Person~~~
Particles of light have gathered in the living room as Maki and the others have regained their consciousness feeling lethargic
"Ugh...are you guys all right?"(Tsukasa)
"I'm fine Nagasaki-kun, just need to breathe"(Minase)
"I'm just feeling a slight dizziness"(Mana)
"I'm fine more importantly look outside the window"(Maki)
The three moved towards the window where Maki is, and found that the aurora disappeared replaced with monsters along with some people wearing armors and weapons fighting the said monster while retreating to one of the mansions near the place where Maki and the others are, there are people with cat ears or pointy ears like the elves found in games and fictions
Maki noticed one of them, all alone run towards the Manor as it successfully escaped from the monster group, the said person located the gate and immediately closed and locked it. After it catch its breath it headed straight to the door of the manor
When Minase saw that it was about to enter the manor she and Tsukasa went to the doorway and prepared themselves. Minase gripping the kitchen knife tightly while Tsukasa prepared his shinai while the other Maki and Mana are there observing the situation cautiously
*Creak*
The door opened slowly and tension inside the room raised. Then the person in question entered the room, when she noticed the four she immediately took a combat stance. The four gasped as they saw the persons appearance they knew it is a female due to her characteristics, Green eyes that gives you the illusion of a forest, black hair with white and blue strands as if it was made by the night sky, though she is flat her body in overall shows that she is like Forest looming under the night sky
"Who are you!?-"(???)
The Girl shouted at the group while she gripped her weapon, a dagger with a clear blue color making it look like its blade was made of glass and its hilt made of sapphire. The four regained their composure when she shouted at them
Unexpectedly Mana stepped in, though shaking, nervously answered the girl back
"I-i a-am T-Tsukishima Mana!"(Mana)
"I see, can you guys tell me wher-"(???)
"Why don't you tell us your name too, Miss?"(Tsukasa)
As the girl was about to ask a question, Tsukasa took it as an oppurtunity to know the girl, despite him still taking up a combat stance
"I am Rivielle Gariolle, an Assassin from the kingdom of Silvarium"(Rivielle)
Unauthorized usage: this tale is on Amazon without the author's consent. Report any sightings.
"Assassi-"(Minase)
When they heard her introduction Maki and the group raised their guards, while Mana immediately hide behind Maki while shaking. Rivielle seeing their state calmly put aside her dagger to calm them, in turn asking the names of the other three. The group signed in relief and put aside their weapons, while they answer her vigilantly
"Nagasaki Tsukasa"(Tsukasa)
"Tachigawa Minase"(Minase)
"Hinatsuki Maki"(Maki)
Rivielle as she heard their names went deep in thought, then look at the others
"Am I in the East?, They shouldn't have this kind of buildings, Hey Is this country the East?"(Rivielle)
The others look at each other trying to understand the question of Rivielle.
"If look at the map yes this country is in the East but the name of the country your in is called Japan"(Maki)
"Japan,japan,japan"(Rivielle)
Repeating the country's name, Rivielle was again deep in thought
*GWRAAAHHHHH*
Suddenly a loud roar revebrated into the room. Curious Minase look out at the window near her
"Guys there is a monster trying to break the gate!"(Minase)
When they heard what Minase saw they went outside to see the monster except for Mana who only stayed near the door afraid to see the monster. Maki picked up a thin metal pipe that was near the door gripping it tightly while taking a Bojutsu stance, while Minase was near Mana gripping the Kitchen Knife tightly, Tsukasa side by side with Maki taking an Iai stance. Rivielle was in front of them gracefully pulling out her dagger at the same time taking her combat stance, while looking at the monster and the others
In front of them was a monster with the body of gorilla, covered in grey hair,that had a lion's head, at its forehead is another eye different from the other two, as it glows a raging yellow as it look at the people at the back of the gate
"Wha-what kind of monster is that!?"(Minase)
"That is Culpa Leo, a monster created from the lingering mana of a Mythical Beast specifically the Lion and Ape types"(Rivielle)
"Okay~ that look is very weird but still its scary"(Tsukasa)
"Prepare yourselves it going to charge through the gate!"(Maki)
*GWRRAAAAHHHH*
The Culpa Leo roared and charged straight through the gate, as Rivielle explained the monster while Tsukasa prepared himself as he complained and joke about the appearance of the Monster. The group concentrated when the monster broke the gate and headed straight through them
The monster let out a punch at Rivielle, which she gracefully evaded by spinning to the left, while she slice through its Iron-like skin. She followed through a second attack by kicking the ground cutting to the left side of the monster. The monster roared as it was annoyed that it can't hit Rivielle. Tsukasa along with Maki rushed in front of the monster. Tsukasa hit the left side of the monster's face, while Maki thrust through the monster's throat, as the monster coughed out blood
"Can you guys hold it for a bit? I'm just going try something"(Rivielle)
"Oh come on how can we even hold him with this stuff, plus-"(Tsukasa)
"Tsukasa, Get Down"(Maki)
Tsukasa is giving a complain to Rivielle just as Maki warned him since the monster was about to give him a jab. When Tsukasa ducked, Maki went behind and sent a powerful bash on its head, which stunned it a little
"HHAAAAHHH!"(Minase)
Minase whom had been shaken up by the battle shouted with vigor, sprinted to the monster's back and stab it. The monster noticed her and was about to send her with a punch when a vase was thrown to its head. It turn its head to where the vase came from, which is Mana making her shiver when she noticed her action. The monster roared as it was annoyed by the attacks coming from Maki and Tsukasa interrupting it from retaliating Minase's and Mana's attacks
"Get away from it now!"(Rivielle)
Rivielle gave them a signal to get away from the Culpa Leo. They immediately get away from it and look at Rivielle or more specifically at her dagger which shines in an icy blue as she dashed through the monster
"<
As she muttered those words she slashed through the monsters body at a speed that creates afterimages. Every time she moved and attack around the monster, Cuts appeared on its skin along with some ice preventing its wounds from closing. After the nth cut Rivielle backed away breathing heavily. The Culpa Leo noticing the exhausted Rivielle took the oppurtunity to kill her along with it
When the the monster's hand was about to reach and crush Rivielle's head, Maki interfered by giving an upwards strike to its hand following it with a numerous strikes and thrust to the cuts, made by Rivielle's previous barrage of slashes and cuts, making it worse as the monster was slowly dying. Seeing this Maki finished it by jumping and giving a thrust to the Cupla's third eye making it howl in pain as it slowly fell down, it life disappearing.
The group fell down as they let out a sign of relief. The corpse turned into particles of light startling the others, as it leave a large fur, meat, and a gemstone of sorts with a black mark in the middle making it look like an eye
While the others are resting Maki picked the items from the Cupla Leo, after picking everything a giant shadow passed by making the others stiffen as they look at the source making them sweat. At the sky a Giant green eagle flying majestically
"Get back inside!!!"(Rivielle)
The group hearing Rivielle run to the mansion despite their exhausted body just to get away from the eagle's sight.
As they entered Tsukasa immediately closed the door and fell down from further moving his tired body the group at the same time followed from collapsing due to exhaustion
