I was scammed!

I was scammed!

[You have the freedom to choose your own path but becoming a pirate seems to be a waste of this ability] The voice clearly didn't understand jokes as it answered his question seriously.

Just as Blake was about to ask more questions, the voice rang out in his head again but this time, asking him, [You are now given a choice. Do you want to keep going in this world with your new ability or would you like to be destroyed and 'spared' of this life?]

This sort of question caught Blake completely unprepared and his mind went blank for a moment. If he wasn't quite sure he is talking to a god or something similar he would think that he is being threatened.

'Hmm, while this life is quite bad now this new ability seems quite a bit like a cheat and the voice said that there is a possibility of becoming human again.' After a short deliberation, Blake clenched his non-existent teeth and said in his mind, 'I choose to stay here!'

[Alright then, now that we dealt with this, let me tell you the rest about your ability [Detect and Loot]. Please pay attention as this is quite important] It might have been just Blake's imagination but the voice sounded a bit brighter.

The tale has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation.

Blake was getting a bad feeling when he heard what the voice said and he shuddered, 'The rest? The important part was only about to come?' Blinking his eyes and tilting his head in confusion, Blake listened properly to make sure he doesn't miss anything.

[First let me talk about the [Loot]. The cooldown of this ability is one month but it varies depending on the rank of the being that owns or protects the treasure and the level of the treasure itself. This means that the stronger the enemy or the higher the level of the treasure the longer the cooldown]

[Unlike [Loot], [Detect] does not have a cooldown and the range of this ability increases as your rank does however just like every other treasure map it depicts the position and the type of the treasure but the terrain is rather inaccurate]

[Another thing to note is that in Loot mode, there is a 100% chance to stay undetected by being that are lower rank than you up to 2 small ranks above you. Afterwards the chances lower by 10% every small rank. The same goes for the invulnerability, when an enemy is 3 or more small ranks above you, a full power punch is capable of causing damage]

[Anyway, that is all I have to say to you. You can figure the rest out. Farewell and good luck to you!] For the last part, the emotionless voice turned into the voice of a wise old man.

Blake didn't notice this as he stood there, his beak agape, his mind preoccupied with just a single thought, 'I was scammed!'
