Cheat Awakening

"That's enough, she had been already healed completely. Now you can take her back to your home any time you want, there is no point in letting her in this place anymore. She'll be awake in a few hours her own."

"If nothing else, I have to go back as well; otherwise, things will get complicated soon," The silver-haired lady spoke with a gentle smile as she pulled her hands away from Myne's shoulder as the last bit of black tar-like curse was removed from Velvet.

She rubbed his head to strengthen the runes on his scalp, which, from Myne's perspective, was a way to show that this beautiful, overpowered lady whom he had just robbed had a good impression of him and that there was the possibility of meeting her again.

Then, she turned her head towards Fenrir, who sat with her eyes closed, seemingly trying to minimize her presence. "Fenrir, dear, don't forget the task I give you. Alright, then that's all for now. See you later." She waved with a chuckle before disappearing into a shower of golden particles.

"Shit," Myne swore angrily. "Not only did I forget to thank her, but I also didn't ask for her name. Fenrir, can you tell me anything about her...?"

Fenrir, clearly eager to leave, didn't even look at him let's not talk about answering his question. As soon as the silver-haired woman vanished, she began floating towards the cave exit at high speed. By the time Myne realized what was happening, she was already gone.

"Did she just abandon me like that? And why is she even angry with me? I was the one getting beat up the entire time but I was still the same as before, already forgave her and there she was getting angry for no reason! But whatever. Women are strange creatures, even if this one is a wolf. It seems like I have to consider my decision to keep some distance from her seriously..."

"Forget it. Right now, she's the second strongest person I can rely on. If I let her go, then when I am in deep shit again, who will come and save me? Big Sis can't handle all the problems I've been facing lately. They're just too powerful for a single person... Anyway, let's think about those things later, now it is time for harvest.

I wonder how many great things the Unique Magic・Sublime Obscurity had created in the limited time."

Thinking that, Myne, who couldn't wait to go behind the statue and retrieve his treasure trove, hurriedly swam toward it. But he had barely reached the face of the statue when he bumped into someone. Myne pulled his face out from two soft mounds and looked up to see the silver-haired lady standing before him again.

"My apologies, dear. It seems I teleported in the wrong direction. Are you hurt?" Her voice was gentle, and her face held concern as she scanned him up and down.

Myne first couldn't help but stare at the ample bosom he'd just collided with, then gave her big belly a deep look in which he almost got smashed into it before looking at her worrisome face, and decided against scolding her. Taking a deep breath, he forced a smile and replied.

"Of course not. How could I be hurt so early? But why did you come back? Is there a problem?"

"No problem at all. I simply forgot to get the coordinates for that six-moon world you mentioned from you. I hope you don't mind it. It's undoubtedly a high-level magic world, and I'd love to visit and improve myself there. In return, you can ask for anything you desire. I will surely fulfil your wish," The silver-haired lady said with a charming smile.

"But I don't know anything about those coordinates! Didn't I tell you that already?" Myne, although excited that any of his wishes could be granted, sadly had no clue about the coordinates she was talking about.

"Hehehe, you do know, my little guy," she said playfully. "You just haven't realized it yet." The silver-haired lady grabbed Myne's right hand, and the 'WW' tattoo reappeared on his wrist. "See, there it is. As I said, you already have them. You just didn't know about it. Now, let me extract the coordinates quickly.

After all, with everything settled, I think you're probably eager to get home and spend time with your wife, right?"

As The sliver-haired lady's voice fell, to Myne's surprise, the 'WW' tattoo began to heat up, turning red hot like heated iron. Then, with a snap, she ripped it from his wrist, transforming it into a mess of black goo. She quickly deposited it somewhere out of sight with a pop sound.

"Done! Now, it's your turn, tell me if there is anything you want from me. Power, wealth, longevity, a beautiful companion... You can ask for anything, I promise to give it to you," The silver-haired woman lady confidently.

Myne, seeing her confident look, thought for a while. Most of what she offered was already in his grasp, and he no longer craved them. But then, two nagging problems surfaced in his mind, and he couldn't resist asking.

"Actually, I have two small requests, if that's alright," Myne said hesitantly. He saw no sign of anger from her, and her expression seemed to encourage him to continue. Taking a breath of relief, he elaborated, "First, can you increase my mana capacity and recovery speed? It is too annoying to run out of mana with very little use of any of my skills, I now get tired of it.

Second, I desire a skill that allows me to be in two or more places simultaneously, with complete control over it."

"Hahaha, you are indeed quite greedy, just as Fenrir said about you. But those things are not difficult," The silver-haired lady chuckled softly at Myne's seemingly modest requests. For her, these were simple feats. With a wave of her hand, she materialized two objects from thin air.

One was a fruit. Round and blue with a swirling light-blue pattern all over it, it held a clear, crystal-like white spot in its centre. Though only a few inches in diameter, the fruit emanated a mysterious aura. The second object was a golden ring with intricate runic markings and five tiny white rubies that emitted a faint golden glow.

[ Band of the Fivefold Ka

Grade: Tier-Three

Attribute: The Ancient Arcane Magic

Description: This ancient band, carved from a single, swirling amethyst, hums with a subtle magic that whispers of echoes. It grants the wearer the ability to manifest five spectral duplicates, each a perfect echo of their physical form. These "Mimics" exist for a single day and night, sharing the user's memories, skills, and even the sting of a fresh wound.

Though independent, their thoughts and actions are heavily influenced by the user's will, like echoes of a familiar song.

While they possess independent minds guiding their actions, a telepathic tether allows for seamless coordination. In moments of dire need, the wearer can forcefully take control of a Mimic, but this dominance comes at a cost – severing the connection until the borrowed body fades. After a Mimic's allotted time or demise, the amethyst ring absorbs the echoes, recharging a slot after twelve hours.

Each new Mimic is a blank slate, devoid of past experiences.

Active Effect: Grants the wearer five perfect clones lasting 24 hours, each with 30% of the wearer's power. Ideal for auxiliary tasks but not combat. The wearer can also dismiss them before their time expires.

Passive Effect: After a clone dies or disappears, all its memories and feelings transfer to the wearer's mind, and have an effect as if he personally had experienced them.

Cooldown Time: 12 hours per clone. ]

[Mana Fruit

Grade: Ultra

Attribute: None

Description: A rare fruit found in mana-rich environments. Upon first consumption, an eater with average physic, mana capacity and recovery speed will experience a tenfold increase. ]

"There you go," The silver-haired lady said with a playful smile, handing the ring and fruit to Myne. "I know you have the Appraisal skill, so explanations should be unnecessary. However, if I'm not wrong, you may have already figured out their uses by now, right? Hehehe Have fun, sweety." She pinched his cheek softly and vanished in a shower of particles once more.
Experience more on empire

"Damn it. No matter how many times I witness it, that teleportation effect is freaking awesome. If I ever see her again, I'll definitely ask her to teach me." Myne muttered enviously as he watched her disappear. Without hesitation, he took a large bite of the mana fruit.

As the fruit entered his stomach, a pleasant warmth spread through his body. He could distinctly feel his internal mana pool boiling, rapidly expanding, and simultaneously absorbing mana from the environment at an astonishing rate. It felt like standing on a mountaintop, a cool breeze continuously touching his skin nonstop. The experience was indescribable.
