Chapter 54 Skill Rarity
"WHAT DID YOU SAY?!!" She shouted in the same robotic voice and I answered with a bit of a smile as I scratched the back of my forehead,
"I already have the [Skill Fusion] skill."
Then I showed her the skill on my system and she was baffled even more before turning silent at me.
"You have no idea what treasure you are sitting on, do you?" she spoke, and I looked at her with a bit of a gulp and she then flew to the [Skills] section of the shop and I followed behind her…
"Search [Soul Fusion] Skill," she said, and I looked at her before searching for it… though I did not find it anywhere. Nothing came up in the shop.
Confused I looked at her and she spoke,
"That skill cannot be bought. There are a few special skills… like the one you have. Those cannot be purchased no matter how much you spend. Do you understand what that means?"
"They are priceless?" I spoke, and she nodded before speaking,
"While its effect isn't apparent, its real value comes up when you reach a unique skill or above. Normally it is extremely difficult to get Mythical Skill however… you have a fairly high chance to obtain a Mythical Skill of the same type… do you know what that means?"
My eyes opened up at that statement as I realized what that meant… this skill… [Skill Fusion] allows me to have a higher chance of obtaining a skill that is otherwise normally unobtainable to me.
"Looks like you understand now. Well, all I can advise is to never sell that skill no matter what. There are more than one reason for that but for now, don't ever sell that skill," she spoke before flying towards the blue screen on the right side of the door.
"This is sort of a Trial Section. If you are planning to buy anything, you can deposit the money first, then try the weapon, skill, etc. and check if it suits you or not. If you don't like it, you can just return it back to the shop with a 100% refund. Though the items on [Daily Sale] aren't included in this feature. Once you buy them, you can't return them," she spoke, and I nodded as I spoke,
"Fair enough, I guess."
"Well. Now all that is left is the [House] function. Come here, I guess you will like this one," she spoke as she took me to the [House] screen where she showed me a couple of things.
[Rejuvenation Leaflets!]
[Place them in your room to increase the regeneration capacity of the surrounding by 10%
Effect: Immediately

[Energy Enhancement Runes!]
[Place them in your room to temporarily increase the Total Energy you have

[Life Bulb!]

Effect: Restores Health at the rate of 10HP per second
Limitations: Can only generate 1 HP every 10 minutes
Cost: 10,000 Cronas]
There were a few more items on the screen visible to me and I just kept looking at them for a few moments with a surprised expression. They weren't really too costly compared to other things and their effect was good as well.
As I was scrolling, I found a certain item that caught my attention.
"Like it?" asked Rhea as she understood my intention and I nodded as I observed that thing.
[Crona Plant(Common)
Effect: Generates 1 Crona every hour
Limitations: Can store only 10 Cronas at a time.
Cost: 1000 Cronas]
While it looked quite bad since it would take 1000 hours to return all the Cronas I have to spend, I felt like it was a fine thing to have.
"Is that time there based on the time here?" I asked and she spoke,"yeah. It doesn't depend on the time of your world."
'So that means about 333 hours of time in my world, huh? That's like 13 days… but if I upgrade [Second Space] to another level? 250 hours or about 10 days, huh?'
"Well.. since you have stared at it enough, let's come back to it later. For now, let's finish with the tutorial. You can always come back here," Rhea spoke as she looked at me and then another message came in front of me.
[Novice Pack Unlocked!]
[+5000 Cronas]
[+Basic Life Plant]
[+Basic Energy Plant]
[+Discount coupon(Grants you 50% discount)]
I saw those messages with a surprised expression before turning to Rhea, who spoke,
"Well. It's a gift."
"From whom?" I questioned, and she sighed before speaking,"if you don't know the answer, then I cannot tell you."
'Huh? What is that supposed to mean?' I questioned, but before I could do so, she took me to the [Daily Sale] Screen and said,"use that discount coupon and buy this. Then use the rest of the Cronas to fuse and evolve your [Return!]"
"Hey! Why should I waste my discount coupon-"
I was about to ask that, cause I planned to use it later for an expensive skill, but then I saw the description.
[Discount Coupon]
[50% Discount on all things in Shop
Expires in 2 hours]
"Just trust me, okay? I know what I am trying to do here," she spoke, and I sighed before nodding and using that coupon on that skill before a message came
[You already have the [Return] Skill. Would you like to fuse them?]
[Success Chance: 100%]
[Cost: 5000 Cronas]
I pressed 'yes' under the piercing gaze of Rhea who was continuously looking at my system before a message appeared. f𝓇𝘦e𝑤𝘦𝚋𝒏૦ѵℯ𝒍.c𝐨𝒎
[Fusion Complete!]
[Skill [Return] Evolved from Uncommon rank to Rare rank]
I then checked the amount of Cronas I had left.
[Cronas left: 623]
I sighed before taking a look at the feature of the evolved skill and my first reaction was,
"What the?!"
