Special Effect - Transparent World: The Heavenly Eye reaches a clear and transparent state, time begins to slow down, all things become transparent, and one can see others' aura and hide their own aura...
As the Heavenly Eye symbol lit up from between his brows, Kisaragi Rin understood what the so-called clear and transparent state was.
Spider Mother's movements slowed in his eyes, and her body structure became clear and transparent.
It was somewhat similar to the state of activated divine sense, but with a smaller range, limited to what the Heavenly Eye could see.
However, activating divine sense before consumed a lot of stamina and put great pressure on his mind.
Now, it had become a normal state.
As for aura, it was what Akaza referred to as fighting spirit, or what was commonly called presence.
Spider Mother's aura was like a spider lurking on a web, hidden and unmoving.
Kisaragi Rin felt that the Heavenly Eye was the most valuable ability he had exchanged for.
Not only were its attribute bonuses excellent, but now, simply by activating it, it had the constant effects of dispelling illusions, seeing ghosts and observing demons, and perceiving auras.
The next step was Akaza's Destructive Kill. Kisaragi Rin planned to use it to add a new Skill to himself, to improve his combat abilities.
The remaining 1450 Paradise Coins were certainly not enough to do so, so Kisaragi Rin chose to completely decompose Wakuraba, converting all of it into energy.
(Obtained 3000 energy points)
It must be said that Kibutsuji Muzan's blood was indeed valuable; even the small amount of blood from Lower Moon Four could yield so much energy.
(2000 energy points consumed, Skill Seed - Destructive Kill has been perfectly grafted)
Paradise sent out a message simultaneously.
"You have obtained Skill - Destructive Kill."
"Skill - Destructive Kill includes some of the Skills you possess."
"Do you wish to fuse Skill - Double Jump, Skill - Karate, Skill - Street Fighting?"
"After fusion, Skill - Destructive Kill will undergo a beneficial change."
"Fuse."
Skill - Destructive Kill - Lv1
Description: When Akaza participates in the King of Fighters Tournament...
Effect: A body tempered through countless trials, a martial artist of supreme mastery; you can use fantastical combat techniques such as grappling, throwing, combos, aerial attacks, blocking, Hadouken...
Bonus: +1 Strength, +1 Constitution, +1 Agility every 3 levels; +1 Charm every 5 levels; maximum bonus not exceeding 20.
Usage Condition: Humanoid
This was the first time Kisaragi Rin had seen a Skill that boosted Charm. As one of the five major attributes, Charm represented summoning, affinity, leadership, and so on.
With various creations around him, Kisaragi Rin still valued this attribute greatly.
After all, who wouldn't yearn for others to bow down to them, unless the person who wanted to bow to you was Lu Bu.
The rest was to optimize Akaza's Kibutsuji Muzan blood and feed it to Spider Mother.
...
It had been over a week since the Workshop was activated, and Kisaragi Rin had gained some understanding of it.
Currently, Kisaragi Rin primarily used the Workshop in three ways.
1: Consume a small amount of energy to extract a Skill Seed, then feed it as material to existing Skills.
Advantages: Low energy consumption, no Paradise Coins consumption, high enhancement efficiency.
Disadvantages: Based on one's existing Skills, requiring higher material compatibility.
2: Consume a large amount of energy to cultivate creations through various materials, developing immense power in areas outside oneself.
Advantages: Full Exploit of various materials, no Paradise Coins consumption.
Disadvantages: High energy consumption, too much can be quite draining.
And when the Workshop's influence on creations is sufficient, aptitude and emotion will be born.
3: Integrate Skill Seeds with high benefit to oneself into oneself, making them appear on the panel, continuing to strengthen, and completely becoming one's own power.
Advantages: Greatly enhances one's combat power, some abilities do not need to be purchased with Paradise Coins.
Disadvantages: High energy consumption, high Paradise Coins consumption.
There were also some non-primary functions, such as storage, smuggling people, biological data retrieval...
...
When Kisaragi Rin returned with a well-fed Spider Mother, he found the atmosphere had changed again.
The social distance between people is typically 1.2 to 2.1 meters, which is the distance unfamiliar people maintain for communication.
But now, Kanroji Mitsuri had already linked arms with Busujima Saeko, achieving zero-distance contact, looking quite intimate.
"What happened to them?"
Kisaragi Rin stealthily asked Yukinoshita Yukino.
"Probably sharing stories about you or something."
To be honest, Yukinoshita Yukino was still quite looking forward to Kisaragi Rin's harem being in turmoil.
Then she could use her personal charm to help Kisaragi Rin, and thereby coerce him into forgetting what he had said.
The Kasugai Crow had flown back. After summarizing the intelligence, Hachiman Hikigaya said, "The Dragon-Seeking Rod has roughly determined the direction. Enmu should still be in Mount Natagumo."
"Is the deal you mentioned Enmu?"
Yukinoshita Yukino looked at Kisaragi Rin with some anticipation, as Enmu was currently the weakest of the Twelve Kizuki.
"No, I will personally kill Enmu. As for the deal, I will arrange an Upper Moon for you."
It wasn't favoritism towards Yukinoshita Yukino; Kisaragi Rin had his own plan for the deal's content.
"Are you sure? An Upper Moon is A-rank!"
An A-rank evaluation was a world apart from a B-rank evaluation. The latter only offered increased rewards, while the former, if obtained, could elevate one's cultivation sequence to B-rank.
Though surprised, Yukinoshita Yukino recalled the Upper Moon Three that Kisaragi Rin had just killed, realizing that Kisaragi Rin himself was already A-rank!
This made her eyes shine brighter and brighter.
"It's just a deal, just pay a bit more money."
Kisaragi Rin said casually, then added, "The corpse and treasure chest are mine. Only the rewards upon returning to Paradise later will be yours."
After Akaza's death, Kibutsuji Muzan would absolutely not send a single Upper Moon to their demise again.
Once Kisaragi Rin exposed Spider Mother's immunity to sunlight, the next time, it could only be Kibutsuji Muzan plus five other Upper Moons.
In the subsequent plan, some heads would be very difficult to acquire, so giving them away was fine.
Anyway, the corpses and treasure chests would return to his hands, only affecting the completion rate of the Twelve Kizuki mission.
Farmers know to sow seeds, fishermen know to cast bait, and students know to pay tuition first...
Without investment, how can one seize the greatest profit!
"More than half of the Twelve Kizuki have died. You have unlocked a new mission."
"Mission - Millennium Demon King: End Kibutsuji Muzan!"
Yukinoshita Yukino, of course, had no thoughts about the treasure chest.
For Kisaragi Rin, killing more or fewer would only affect one Twelve Kizuki mission.
But for herself, even without considering treasure chests and high ratings, an Upper Moon's head was enough to unlock rewards for several missions.
Hachiman Hikigaya looked at the sky beside them. Although he told himself that a B-rank evaluation should be satisfactory, he was ultimately tempted by a higher evaluation.
Yukinoshita Yukino's deal was bought with money.
And what did he have?
Could it be that he should give his sister to Kisaragi Rin?
Just then, Kisaragi Rin turned to look at him.
Seductive words entered his ears.
"Hikigaya, do you want an A-rank evaluation?"
Hachiman Hikigaya was a bit bewildered, pointed to himself, and let out a foolish "Huh?"
"What do I have to trade?"
He asked blankly. Following Kisaragi Rin's gaze, Hachiman Hikigaya, realizing the reason, only felt his injuries ache a bit more.
Starving to death, social death, dying alone...
Hachiman Hikigaya just didn't want to die in a Paradise where he couldn't even tell his family the cause of death.
