Chapter 201 - New Skill
Hooh? It's been a long time since I saw this notification.
A transparent screen was seen, hovering in mid-air facing against his face with his surprise reaction. But contracty to his face, his mind remained calm, not panicking as it's seemed this wasn't the first time.
Hmm, A good name ... A good name... Related to blood and energy, maybe, Desmond thought inwardly with his hand stroking his lower chin.
In the past, this notification also appeared when he first demonstrated or practiced the swordsman skills his father taught.
Not only was the description of this notification the same as before, in fact, but the timing was also spot on along with the body-pained sensation.
Remembering this part also reminds his body condition right now. His neck felt choked as he struggles a bit to inhale nor exhale. It's felt like he was tied up like a dog with a chain along with his entire body went limp, be it his joints or muscles.
But still, this pain couldn't restrain his brain from thinking an idea, as he finally found a suitable name for his new skill.
Blood Control. Even sounds plain, not domineering enough, but simply that's what I like about it, Desmond thought as he grinning inwardly.

I see... I see, Desmond muttered and repeatedly nodded as he was astonished by this sudden information. He continued, Great, even this is a simpler version or an easier version of the custom spell, still being able to have the same effect is excellent.
But when his eyes noticed the consumed part that brings a reduction in agility and strength, his heart jolted.
Status.
Gradually another transparent screen appeared side by side with a new skill screen. Desmond ignored the skill description and shifted his eyes as he slowly scanned all of his stats.

Huff, luckily this isn't permanent. Looking at this, he sighed in relief.
But then he noticed another problem as he still saw that his energy, agility and strength had started to decrease significantly.
It's already past 3 minutes, Desmond thought as his mouth twitched itself.
Therefore he refocused his gaze again, clearing the transparent screen hovering which blocked his view.
Upon seeing Laura, who was still leaning on his chest, he frowned. "Laura," Desmond spoke while trying to push her body with all his remain strength.
But at that moment, after being pushed, Laura's body that he thought was going to resist a bit was pushed back without any resistance.
* swoosh *
Realizing that something strange had happened to her, Desmond caught her head which almost hit the room floor. "That's dangerous."
Narrowing his eyes, Desmond saw Laura's pale face with a weak breath that was exhaled. Besides that, he also saw that the energy she had was not as much as before.
"What? Is there is a soldier dared to enter without permission? " Thinking of this, he was furious, but suddenly his mind began to calm along with his expression turned cold with a chill emitted.
As he scanned the room, to his surprise, he found that everything was still neatly arranged, with the door of this room still standing firmly, without any broken parts.
This makes him puzzled as he glanced back at Laura only to find the energy in her body starting to weaken little by little.
"Hmm, strange, but I have to solve my problem first." Ignoring Laura's problem, Desmond placed her on the floor and then tried to approach the dragon necklace lying on the floor, a little away from his position.

As Desmond moved, he again felt pain attack his body which made him groan. Enduring the pain like his body was being stabbed by thousands of needles, he slowly walking on a squat with his hand managed to grab the necklace back.
* clap *
After Desmond managed to wear back his necklace, he quickly stopped the skill, which made the pain in his body slowly disappear.
"This is better." Glancing back at his status, Desmond found that his agility and strength were slowly recovering to their peak.
After that, Desmond approached Laura, who was lying on the floor unconscious. With Laura being taller than him, Desmond carried her in his arms and slowly placed her on the bed.
"Heavy. " Desmond clicked his tongue.
With Laura had made a big contribution in helping him, Desmond is not a cold-hearted master, discarding when it is useless and taking advantage if it is still functioning.
He is fair to each of his subordinates but not to traitors. Recalling the memories from his past, a murderous aura appeared in his eyes, "I just remember, there was no way that thief was an ordinary thief."
Carrying a gun and baited him to the narrowed alley, if not for his phone was stolen maybe he can clear his mind back then and still alive until now.
"There is no medicine for regret." Desmond smiled wryly. And for the reason why he still chases that thief, even he can buy another phone," I forget the novel name, fuck." He cursed his stupidity inwardly.
After a few moments of holding back his grudge, Desmond's mind calmed again as he returned to focus on Laura. "If not an intruder, maybe ..." He approached the water container Laura used to wipe his body.
Holding the water container, he touched the spilled water and felt, "Sure enough, there is a trace of energy flow in this container. But this shouldn't consume up much of her energy. "
Upon reaching a conclusion, he approached Laura again and straing straight at her.
System scan.

[System Conclusion: The target is in critical condition. System cannot find helpful information for the host for further action.]
"Wahh," Desmond snapped as he was a little shocked for a moment. Not only did Laura's energy become minus, but even her stamina and other stats were also drastically reduced.
But looking at Laura's odd state, still, he able to remain calm, which also benefited clear thinking. And also, after seeing his condition, Desmond already knew the cause, "Long-distance communication." Desmond's face was complexed.
This was also the first time Desmond had seen a minus stats, nor did he or the system know the consequences of this minus energy.
Logically if people run out of energy, then they will not be able to chant any spells and have to meditate to gather energy into their body. Even if they forced, still the spell nor the chant will not be effective.
All of this information is basic information he obtained from books in his home library, but for Laura's case ...
"Only academies and royal libraries have detailed information about this," Desmond pondered as he continued, "This is a woman, complicated, always giving a hint. Then why didn't she say earlier." He shook his head as he didn't even notice the weak smile from Laura before.
Upon looking at Laure's pale expression, Desmond spoke, "However, this can still be cured with logic." Glancing back at his status, he then pointed his hand at Laura. " This is why I can't fully trust in AI. "
