“Hey Christian, are you really sure about this? This isn’t just a small-time scam anymore. What you’re doing right now is attempting to rob a ruler class constellation of everything it owns. If we fail, not only our lives but the lives of all of our team, our family will be put in danger.”
“What you don’t trust me? Come on when have I ever been wrong? We never failed before so don’t worry, we’ll get through this.”
“Well first off you have failed us, a lot. The only reason we survived was that the constellations were of low enough grade and were weakened enough so that we could finish the job. Besides, considering this guy’s strength, he’s probably gonna be quite hard to rob.”
“Hey, Louis, calm down. Remember my skill, we’re gonna be fine. Trust me. Just imagine it, if we do this, we’ll never have to fight or worry about anyone again, we’ll have every blessing we need.”
“Okay, I trust you.”
Damn this elevator was long. This is the elevator of the God Palace, shouldn’t they make it faster? I mean yeah, most gods don’t need to use it, but still, my point is valid. I’m Christian. I’m a character from Earth, and my unique skills are called “entice” and “thief”. Both of them are completely useless for combat, while my blessing is called “Scammer”. Everyone chosen as a character gets a blessing a unique skills after beating the tutorial. Earth’s worked like that for a few generations already. Blessings are like a special ability, like a passive skill or a bonus, unique skills are either skills specific to you or a strengthened version of normal skills. Most people only have one but in some rare cases, people get two. In even rarer circumstances some people get two that they find entirely useless. My skills themselves are shitty.
[Thief]

A very useless skill now. It could have been useful in the past, but not anymore
[Entice]
Unique Skill
Effect: Makes it easier for the user to coarse people into acting the way you want to. Making someone go against their beliefs or do something they can’t do is impossible.
*The stronger the opponent the less successful the skill will be.

This skill is also useless, considering that the only ones that we rob are constellations, the skill barely works considering how much stronger they are. Its effect somewhat showed on the weaker ones, but considering the level of the person we’re attacking now, I can only rely on myself and trickery to get what I want.
“Okay Louis, turn on the transmitter and get ready, we’re almost there. Send me a word once you find Indra, that’s the guy we’re robbing this time.”
Another voice was emitted from the transmitter.
“Can you hear me? Hello?”
“Yeah, Page I got it.”
“Okay good, we’ll try to guide you the best we can from base Christian, Louis will be watching over the mission while Mary and I will be making sure nothing goes wrong.”
“Yeah I get it, but I got a question, Louis.”
“What is it?”
“How did you even get your hands on something like this transmitter?”
“Hey, I can have my secrets!”
“Sure.”
Normally in this building, no outside interference is possible. The only reason we can do it is thanks to that transmission item. We’re lucky we managed to get our hands on an epic-grade item. Call them what you want, artifacts, relics, whatever, even if skills are widespread depending on where you look, items are extremely rare. The only way to get them is in worlds that are dangerous enough to injure constellations.

A voice was heard in the elevator.

Page spoke warned me again.
“Okay Christian, get ready, this is gonna be hard”
As the doors open I put a fake smile on my face and get ready. Time to scam some gods.
