Chapter 68 Sheila is a God?! (1/2)

”Hmm, she's really good at a sneak attack. As expected of an assassin, I guess?”

Sheila muttered while watching Sylvia's figure disappeared before reappearing behind a slime and land a few blows before backing away, the slime was too slow to catch up to her retreat figure and could only let her do as she pleased before dying and become a puddle on the ground.

At first, Sylvia was quite awkward when she stabbed the dagger into the slime jelly-like body and make quite a few mistakes which resulted in her getting a few hits in the stomach.

But after getting used to the slime movement speed, she eventually started to show a sign of getting better. It was also at that time that she's finally getting used to using the skills.

Her walking steps toward the slime didn't make any single noise which makes it easy for her to plan a sneak attack behind an ignorant slime. It was one of her skills, Silent Step.

The skill drained quite a bit stamina from her the longer it was active, so she couldn't possibly use it that often. And it is not as good as Sheila's Shadow Magic where she could literally hide within the shadow. But even so, it is still a good skill for a beginner like Sylvia.

The reason she could easily kill slime is also due to her other skill, Fatal Strike. And this one is a passive skill for whenever her hits are fatal; the damage will increase by 10% at level 1.

Yes, a passive skill that has a level. Sheila also got some passive skill, but all of them is already maxed. She wonders what the reason behind the difference between her, the host of the system, and others who get access to the Trial Tower is?  Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please clickfor visiting.

All ordinary people have a class of their own, but she didn't. There's a lot of things that she wanted to know, but the system has been silent since then. She could only keep her questions while aiming to get her level high up.

”Umm, Master?”

”...what did you say?”

Sheila feels like she heard things. It couldn't be that the silver-haired girl in front of me is calling me as a master? Nah, no way. I must have been hearing things. Am I brainstorming too much now that the brain is changing the word that I heard into something else, like a ridiculous one like a master? I mean, who in the world called other as 'master' in real life? This is not a Maid Cafe on a Holy Land.

”What did you just call me? Sorry, I feel like I heard it wrong.”

”Master.”

”Umm, is this that, the thing where only kids at your age understood, and that's how you call it for people older than you? And apparently, it pronounced the same as the 'master' that I know.”

Sylvia shook her head at her remark.

”I'm calling you as master as in the real meaning of it, Master.”

”...just why?”

Like really, please stop it. My heart hurt so bad when I heard it. I don't want my otaku soul to regain itself, I'm begging you. Please stop it. But her thoughts weren't heard by Sylvia as she answered it as if it the normal thing to do.

”In a way, you saved me. And it wasn't just that; you also showed me that there's still a world out there that is beautiful than the dull world that I know.”

”To show my appreciation, I think it's right for me to call you as master, Master.”

Sylvia said and nodded her head before showing Sheila her pure and innocent smile. For the first time, Sheila feels like there's a light surrounding the silver-haired girl in front of her. It was the holy light that shines upon Saintess. Of course, that was just her imagination as when she looked again; the so-called holy light has long disappeared along with the smile on Sylvia's face.

”Is it bad for me to do so?”

Sylvia softly muttered while looking so sad. Sheila feels like she could see the cat ear above Sylvia's head flopped down in sadness. The otaku soul inside of her screamed at the illusion that she just saw. Sheila tried to calm it down by taking a deep breath, but it didn't work.

In the end, Sheila raises a white flag in defeat. It was definitely not because the girl in front of her seems like going to cry the longer she kept her silence.

”...nevermind, you can call me whatever you want.”

”Yes, master!”

”So, what is it that you want to tell me beforehand?”

”Ah! You see, I leveled up just now!”
