Chapter 339 - Money
After renting the house, he quickly returned to his own house and was greeted by Ava.
"Sorry, it took me a whole day. Are you hungry?" Theo asked.
"Kyu!" Ava nodded her head and jumped to the couch as if waiting for Theo to order something.
He thought for a moment and muttered, "I should probably buy Night Vision and Cooking Glasses. They are quite expensive, but both are essential if I want to stay for a long time on the other side. At the same time, I need to find a way to watch out for monsters during the night if I want to sleep."
"Kyu!" Suddenly, Ava raised her foot as if wanting to show Theo something. She raised both front feet and punched in succession.
"You can fight?" Theo tilted his head in confusion.
Ava nodded and pointed her foot to Theo. "Kyu!"
"You want to show me your power?" Theo narrowed his eyes and extended his palm to the front. "How about you punch this?"
"Kyu!" Ava nodded and hopped from the couch before kicking Theo's palm.
"Eh?!" Theo widened his eyes before crashing to the wall behind him. Luckily, the force wasn't powerful enough to make a dent or something. But he was still taken aback by Ava's strength.
Although he wasn't serious, that hit alone was similar to a Level 200 monster if not higher.
Theo shook his head helplessly and said, "Anyway, it's good to know that you can fight. But doesn't this mean you need to kill another monster to level up?"
"Kyu!" Ava shook her head before pointing at her own mouth.
"So, you eat to level up." Theo nodded and looked up, recalling something in his mind. "Now that I think about it, a summoner can rank up their summoned creatures by making them consume monsters' meat and some herbs. That's how it is, I guess…"
"Anyway, I will order some food first. What do you want?" Theo asked while browsing all the menus available online.
After waiting for a while, they had their dinner. As expected, Ava seemed to be satisfied with the food.
Theo had grown accustomed to Ava's company, so he just let her lie down on the couch while opening Skynet to search for Skill Cards online.
"I have two C Rank Skill Cards from the school and around 63 million Zils in total. I got it from the previous hunt with the group and the rewards from school, Nart, Laust, and the government. Though I use Laust's money for the house." Theo thought for a moment.
"One C Rank Skill cost me 1-7 million Zils while a D Rank Skill has the price around 500,000 Zils. In that case, I should upgrade one C Rank Skill to a B Rank. With the remaining money, I should be able to upgrade another two to three D Rank Skills."
He opened all his skills to see the upgrade requirements.
Skill: Blink (C) - Upgradeable
Upgrade: Fuse 10 rank C skills and 30 Rank D skills
Skill: Telekinesis (C) - Upgradable
Upgrade: Fuse 5 C Rank Skills and 40 D Rank Skills.
Skill: Clone (C) - Upgradable
Upgrade: 7 Rank C Skill and Fuse 15 Rank D Skills
Skill: Magic Bullet (D) - Upgradeable
Upgrade: Fuse 10 rank D skills and 10 Rank E skills.
Skill: Cannon Blast (D) - Upgradeable
Upgrade: Fuse 25 Rank D skills and 50 Rank E Skills
"Hmm…" Seeing these five skills, he seemed to have made his decision. "Because of my Control, I think Telekinesis is more beneficial in my current state. Not only can it help my training in Control, but it can also power up my External Flow during a fight.
"Then, I should upgrade Magic Bullet because it has been my main skill in misdirecting or attacking my opponents. Cannon Blast is a bit harder to upgrade, but I don't think I should get another skill to replace this one. This will be the last time I upgrade Cannon Blast before changing to a new skill.
"Meanwhile, I need to master my Illusion Manipulation skill first since it's a good way to fight humans. Monster may also be fooled if I use it in the right way. As for the Illusion Multiplier, I will just hold it for the time being because I know that it still has some uses for me.
"Flowmotion, on the contrary, is very useful in going around complicated terrains like forests. I will upgrade this skill after hunting enough monsters there. That leaves only my Elemental Shield and Swift Energy. Both of their upgrade requirements are too big for me to handle, so I won't upgrade them.
"Ever since I can use External Flow, I don't use Swift Energy that often, so I will just hunt monsters and replace the skill after finding a skill I fancy. The same applies to Elemental Shield, I guess." Theo nodded. "Another rearrangement for skill. To think it will be this costly.
"Also, I remember that God of Mischief can upgrade my own eyes. What kind of ability do those eyes have? Maybe I can upgrade other people's skills? That's certainly going to create chaos in society, but if I play my cards right, I can utilize it to get more money to buy more skills to upgrade my own.
"It's going to require a lot of money if my skills are B Rank Skills. After all, each B Rank Skill will cost me at least 30 million Zils. Money, money, money… Why are you so hard to get and so easy to leave?" Theo sighed.
"Anyway, I should buy the skills tonight and upgrade tomorrow. I also need to buy equipment and test this Ring of Honor tomorrow. I guess I can only start exploring the other side in three days."
"Kyu!" Ava arrived next to him while waving her hand as if telling him to bring her along.
"Don't worry. I know. Though, you need to hunt the monsters if you want to eat something. I can't touch or cook them if I kill them, you see."
"Kyu!" Ava agreed without hesitation and told him that he should leave it to her.
"Alright. Don't bother me for the time being." Theo waved his hand, began to search all the things he needed on the Skynet and ended up buying 3 C Rank Skills and 75 D Rank Skills, 60 E Rank Skills, Night Vision Glasses, and Cooking Glasses which cost him a total of 58 million Zils.
