The Adventures of Rose Hood

Chapter 140: The System Owner

"Welp, that was tiring."

"Went a lot faster when you became able to touch multiple at the same time."

"Yeah, then when I was able to simply utilize the Empire skill to get the rest... hate that it took 2 weeks to figure that out."

I had maxed out Denial, System Override, and System Administrator.

I was currently bedridden from the absolute massive use of mana to make everyone independent.

"Huh, that's interesting."

"What is it?"

"I can combine your skills."

"Which one?"

"The three you just maxed."

"What would that do?"

"I assume make an ultimate."

"I think you should do it."

"You already have one ultimate; it may be unbalanced to give you a second."

"Have I fulfilled all necessary requirements?"

"... yes."

"Then why is it bad?"

"You're right."

She then evolved my skill.

[The Skills: Denial, System Override, and System Administrator have been combined and evolved. You have gained the Ultimate skill System Owner. You now have as much control as the system Luma, once maxed out. This skill can be merged with FEAR when maxed out.]

"Wait, what?"

"That was the automatic thing. I didn't add anything to it."

"So, I'm now as strong as you."

"No, upon looking at the details closer, you can't manipulate levels, nor can you make changes that drastically make you more powerful. You can really only do the arbitrary things. You can't even waive things."

"Well, it is level one."

"Level one FEAR put a 600 on his guard."

"Good point."

"You can still mess with my settings though... in fact, you now have owner permissions."

"What does that mean?"

"I think that you don't need to have a pass code anymore to access the classified stuff."

"Nice, I'll have to check on that later."

"But merge it with FEAR?"

"Yeah, that's odd. I mean, even denial shared similarities with Admin and Override."

"Yeah, so what's with that?"

"I don't know."

"Ugh, you'd think that I'd be able to figure it out with this OP skill."

"As you said, it's only level one. It may get much, much stronger."

"I hope so."

"Your interspace movement's 9 now."

"Why?"

"Simple, when you used Empire, it went between world lines. You're actually not far from 10."

"Nice."

"..."

"..."

"So, what do we do?"

"Go to Tortura and talk to Vitilio. One thing that didn't happen, that he hopefully noticed. The alliance wasn't broken between me, him, and Gabriel."
