Chapter 86 Purchasing Some Skills.
Was he that curious? Yes. The first thing he wanted to see was if the boy had the mana core in him...if he got to awaken an ability at all.
Was he the boss of his friends when he doesn't even possess an ability? People that didn't get to awaken an ability were considered somehow for some time. So was he their boss without possessing a power element?
..This was something Aiden was curious about, he wanted to see if he awakened an ability or not.
And seeing his stats points and other details about him was also important as well. Oliver and Aiden had gotten to the compound by now as they were sauntering toward the cafeteria.
They were still walking toward it when Aiden sighted the boy and his friends entering the cafeteria...the bullies. This was confirmation he was gonna meet them there.
They kept strolling until they had stepped foot into the cafeteria, then they paid the needed coins and found their way to a table with empty chairs around it. And not long after, Ava entered the cafeteria as well, dropped the needed coins, and joined them where they were sitting.
..Currently, the cooks had served everyone around as they were eating.
Aiden was eating and glancing at the boy and his friends, but he made sure Ava and Oliver didn't notice. And now was the time to check out his status. He called out on his system from the mind,
'System'.
<Yes, host>
'I wanna check out the status of the boy that had been bullying me for days now'.
<His status would be displayed in front of you right now>
..And with that, an interface appeared in front of, Aiden, and these are what he saw there,
______
<Status>
<Name: Cyrus Sladen>
<Age: 15 years>
<HP: 10/10>
<Rank: S>
<Strength: 10>
<Agility: 7>
<Physical DMG: 8>
<Endurance: 9>
<Speed: 7>
<Charm: 5>
<Mana: 1/10>
_______
Done glancing at his status interface, it disappeared. And Aiden had come to know some details about him. He didn't stop eating while glancing at his status interface, he was still eating while glancing at it.
And these were the details he discovered about him after glancing at his status interface. First of all, he had the mana core in him, he had awakened a power element. His rank stats read 'S', which means he awakened the fire power element.
..No wonder he could be the boss of his friends.
Secondly, he had gotten to know the boy's name and his age. He was 15 years old, which means he was older than Aiden and his friends by a good 8 years. In the next years to come, he'll be out of this academy.
Thirdly, his stats points were pretty high considering that he hadn't even trained...he hadn't attended any of the academies meant for training benders. His strength stats point were somehow high meaning he was strong to a certain extent.
But this wasn't much of a surprising thing to Aiden considering the guy was older than them by a good 8 years. Their stats would most likely be like his when they get to his age even without them training.
It might even be higher than his when they get to his age, their strength stats points could be like his or even higher when they get to his age.
These were the things Aiden had come to know about him after glancing at his status. With his system, he had checked out the boy's stats, and with this same system...he was gonna deal with the boy.
..The system wasn't called the Undefeated System for nothing.
As known, he wasn't interested in checking out the status of the boy's friends, but he was gonna deal with them all together...that was the plan.
He was done thinking and checking out the boy's status, it was time to focus on his food properly.
******
That same day after school, while Aiden and his friends were heading home, they saw him and his friends bullying two boys together...boys that were younger than them.
And they had no idea if the boys were sons of officials or not. After the boy started picking on Aiden, they had come to start noticing them picking on other boys often...but they hadn't seen them bullying a girl before.
When they hadn't started bullying Aiden, not even once did he sight them bullying a student. That was the same case for Oliver, it was only Ava that had sighted them. It was just like they were showing Aiden their other bullying on purpose...but they weren't.
Oliver just shook his head as he took his gaze off the scene...and that was the same case for Ava. But as for Aiden, he kept glancing at the scene as he strolled with serious anger embedded in his heart.
******
Aiden was at home currently inside his room and sitting on his bed. He had come up with a nice plan on how he was gonna deal with the bullies. This was something he had contemplated and made a decision on for some time now.
..His system was the only thing that could help him.
He can't face those boys head-on in the name of wanting to deal with them? They were gonna beat the f**king hell out of him. They were f**king older and stronger than him.
But with the help of his system, he could become stronger and more skilled than them. Now was the time for this system to be of really good use to him. He was gonna make use of some of the skills under his defense skill panel.
..He hadn't unlocked any of them. But there wasn't much problem, he had enough skill points to unlock them and make use of them.
He had a cheat, but those bullies don't have one. And though they were older and stronger than him, with his cheat, he could still beat them. What he needed to do now was to select the skills he was gonna use in dealing with them.
Some skills were even in shop, and there could be some really nice skills in there, but he hadn't unlocked shop yet...so there was no need to think about it.
He needed to decide on the skills he would love to unlock right now, so he called out on the system orally,
"System".
<Yes, host>
"Can you display all the skills in my defense skill panel in front of me?".
<Skills under Defense would be displayed in front of host right now>
And with that, an interface appeared in front of Aiden, and these are what he saw there.
________
<Current skills under Defense>
<Heal>
<Strong slash(Locked)>
<High jump(Locked)>
<Speed dash(Locked)>
<(Shop)>
_________
Glancing at all the skills, he didn't need the system to reshow him their functions. She had already shown him their functions before, and he still remembered them.
Now, he needed to unlock the best ones which he was gonna use in dealing with those bullies. How he wished he could know the skills in the shop. He didn't remember how much each of the skills cost anymore, but he knew he had enough skill points to unlock the skills he needed.
He sat there contemplating what skills he was gonna unlock, then he thought of the best ones. He called out on the system again,
"System".
<Yes, host>
"I want to purchase the speed dash and high jump skills".
<Are you sure these are the skills you want to purchase?>
"Yes, I still remember their functions, I think they are gonna be good for defeating those bullies in a battle. But before I purchase these skills, I want to ask some questions".
<What are your questions, host?>
"I know with this high jump skill, I'll be able to jump really high. And with this speed dash skill, I'll be able to run super fast. But is there anything else added to this speed dash skill?".
<With this skill, once you're about to make use of it, and a person throws an attack at you, it would be super slow making it very easy for you to dodge and move at the same time. Once you're making use of this skill, everything around you would be super slow. With this skill, dodging attacks would be very easy for you>
..A smile appeared on Aiden's face at that moment, it was a really nice skill he could use in dealing with those bullies...he wasn't making a wrong decision at all.
<So are you still purchasing the high jump and speed dash skills?>
"Yes". Aiden retorted.
And this was the next thing that appeared in front of him after giving that response.
____
<Host has purchased the high jump skill, 5,000 Skill points have been deducted from his skill points>
<Host has purchased the speed dash skill, 10,000 Skill points have been deducted from his skill points>
____
..And with that, Aiden nodded his head, he knew he didn't make the wrong decision.
