Chapter 23 Trouble & Web (2/4)
Grace and Isabella talked with the minister and made other preparation for making this plan successful.
Zoe and Isabella couldn\'t do much, so they just stayed on the sidelines and helped with company stuff while Arkhan had asked for a private room to make his own preparations.
\'So how much reality points would that cost? And If you have any idea to reduce to reality points cost, then suggest me,\' Arkhen said.
[To collect all of that minister\'s dark deeds and put it into a USB drive…If I do it with the raw power of the system by observing his past and then catching his dark deeds in video format, it would take 130 reality points. However, if we can find evidence of his dark deeds in his farmhouse or by accessing his computer, it will take way fewer reality points to extract those]
\'Hmmm…I see,\' Arkhen fell into thought before he remembered something and grinned. \'Velshi, isn\'t this time to spin the roulette? Let\'s see if I can get something useful.\'
[This is indeed the time to do it.]
\'Spin it,\' Arkhen said as he opened the roulette function.
[Congratulations, you have gotten 50 reality points]
\'Tsk, one more,\' Arkhen clicked his tongue and spun one more time.
[Congratulations, you have gotten an S-rank talent, Gaze of Conqueror. Would you like me to brand this talent into your being?]
\'A talent?\' Arkhen was surprised.
[My lord. Talent is different from skill and superpowers. A talent is something that you can do it naturally. It is part of your being]
\'Hmm, let\'s see what this Gaze of Conquerer can do,\' Arkhen said as he looked at the details of this talent.
[Gaze of Conquerer]
-Rank: S
-Effect: As long as your will is more powerful than your target, you can weaken your target\'s mind and make them feel inferior to you. You can suppress them with your gaze alone and they won\'t go against you as long as your willpower is higher than your target.
-Note: This can also have an adverse effect. For example, even if you manage to suppress your target in your presence, that target might flare up after you are gone and might make them frustrated and ego hurt, which can lead them to make irrational actions against you.
\'Interesting…,\' Arkhen was intrigued by this talent and nodded. \'Brand this into me.\'
A second later, Arkhen felt something strange in his body and mind for a few seconds before returning to normal.
\'This is good. I can naturally feel this Gaze of Conqueror and how to use it. Indeed, just like a talent,\' Arkhen nodded with a grin before he opened the roulette again. \'One more spin.\'
The roulette started spinning…
[Congratulations, you have gotten a unique skill, Touch of Ecstasy]
<Touch of Ecstasy>
-Effect: Your touch will bring ecstasy and arousal to anyone you touch upon activation. The longer you touch them, the more this effect will take place.
-Note: It will work slower on some targets, especially if they are stronger than you and have higher willpower than you.
\'Learn! Hahaha, this is awesome.\'
[Indeed. Your lustful part of life became even more adventurous with this]
\'Hmmm…Now I have 4 spins left,\' Arkhen thought. \'I still haven\'t gotten something that can help me in the plan. Alright, do one more spin.\'
[Congratulations, you have gotten a unique item, Memory Crystal Fishing Rod]
\'Why do I feel like I got what I wanted?\' Arkhen was dumbfounded.
[My lord, that\'s why I told you to save roulette spins. You might get things you want sometimes and sometimes not. But it\'s best to save spins regardless and use them when we have hit a wall]
\'Mhmm,\' Arkhen nodded before he took a look at Memory Crystal Fishing Rod.
[MCF Rod]
-Rank: Unique
-Cost: Primal energy
-Use: You can only use this item once every thirty days.
-Effect: You can infuse primal energy into the fishing rod and hook your target with the fishing rod. Doing this will randomly take out a piece of their memory crystal. You can infuse primal energy into the crystal to watch that particular piece of memory.
-Note: An ethereal pond will appear in front of you after you infuse primal energy into the fishing rod. You have to find your target by remembering the face of your target.
\'Hmm, this is good but kind of tricky to use,\' Arkhen said as he looked at the dreamy fishing rod. It had strange materials and was made of crystal. Its hook was ethereal and was exuding out dreamy white smoke with sparks.
[That is indeed the case. We have to fish a lot if we want memory crystals of his dark deeds. We should do it now]
Arkhen nodded before he infused primal energy into the rod and an ethereal pond appeared in front of him. After that, he took out his mobile and searched for the name of that minister, Luther Fox. A second later, he saw his photos.
After remembering his image, he focused on the pond, and soon, Luther Fox appeared in the pond. He was currently in his office. \'There he is!\'
Arkhen threw the hook into the pond as it directly entered the imaginary head of Luther Fox.
\'Ehh…I can see his memories,\' Arkhen was startled to suddenly see Luther\'s memories when the hook entered Luther Fox\'s head.
[Oh, so that\'s how it works. This will make it easier to get what we want]
Arkhen nodded as he started looking through memories and whenever he found a dark deed, he pulled the fishing rod to take out a memory crystal attached to a hook of that particular memory that he was seeing.
\'Damn, this bastard\'s life can teach me some important things regarding politics,\' Arkhen cursed as he was impressed by some of the feats pulled by this bastard.
Thirty minutes later, Arkhen fished out 18 memory crystals. "This is more than enough to put ten of his lives in jail," Arkhen said with a wry smile.
[My lord, get a USB drive. I can then use 3 reality points to convert memories in those crystals as video files]
Arkhen nodded as he put the fishing rod into his inventory and left the private room. He entered the main office where Isabella and Grace were working. "I need a USB drive. Is there any here?"
"We got many," Isabella said as she pulled up the drawer and threw one to Arkhen, who caught it.
"Does that mean the information plan will work?" Grace said with a hopeful expression and eagerness in her eyes.
"Yep," Arkhen nodded smilingly. \'Velshi, use some points to make her conscious about me more.\'
[Done]
