Reincarnated With the Seduction System

Chapter 53: Revealing Secrets

Adrian blinked as the notifications echoed in his mind, signaling the completion of his mission. The tension of the battle and the weight of his class choice had kept him on edge, but now that it was done, a wave of relief washed over him.

He focused on the rewards, intrigued by the possibilities they presented.

Ding! You have received 100,000 Seduction Points (SP).

Ding! You have one chance to choose a skill from the system shop.

Adrian considered the immense amount of SP he had just gained. It was more than he had ever seen before, and the potential for what he could acquire with it was vast. But it was the opportunity to choose a skill from the system shop that truly excited him.

The system shop had a wide range of abilities, from combat techniques to supportive spells, and Adrian knew that this was a rare chance to pick something that could further enhance his power as a Draconian Spellblade.

"System, open the skill shop," Adrian commanded, his voice steady despite the anticipation building inside him.

A holographic interface appeared before his eyes, displaying an array of skills organized by category—Offensive, Defensive, Utility, and Special.

He scrolled through the options, each one more enticing than the last. He knew that this decision, much like his class selection, would shape his future. After a few minutes of careful consideration, he narrowed it down to a few key skills.

Elemental Mastery: Increases the potency of all elemental attacks and allows the user to manipulate multiple elements simultaneously.

Phase Step: A high-level movement skill that allows the user to phase through solid objects and move in short bursts of invisibility, perfect for dodging attacks or setting up surprise strikes.

Mana Surge: A passive ability that drastically increases mana regeneration and allows the user to channel mana at an accelerated rate during combat.

Dragon's Might: A powerful buff that temporarily enhances all physical and magical abilities, imbuing the user with the strength and ferocity of a dragon.

Ethereal Blade: Summons a spectral blade that strikes with the force of pure mana, ignoring physical defenses and dealing significant damage to both health and mana.

Adrian carefully reviewed the skills in the system shop, weighing his options. He already had a strong arsenal of offensive and defensive abilities, and his mana control had been greatly enhanced by the Draconian Spellblade class. However, he wanted something that could give him an edge in both offense and defense, amplifying his overall combat prowess.

One skill in particular caught his eye: Dragon's Might. It was a powerful buff that temporarily enhanced all physical and magical abilities, imbuing the user with the strength and ferocity of a dragon. It would make him even more formidable in battle, pushing his power to new heights when needed most.

After a moment of contemplation, Adrian made his decision.

"System, I choose Dragon's Might," he declared.

Ding! Skill Acquired: Dragon's Might.

As the system confirmed his choice, Adrian felt a surge of power within himself, as if a dragon's strength was now at his fingertips.

With his new power in hand, Adrian turned to his family and allies, ready to continue his journey. He had leveled up, chosen his class, and gained a powerful new skill—but the challenges ahead would only grow more intense.

He then asked the system to show his updated stats, which appeared as follows:

As Adrian absorbed the details, Isabella approached him with a warm smile, her eyes sparkling with pride.

"Congratulations, Adrian. You've accomplished so much," she said, her voice filled with warmth. "I think a celebratory party is in order."

Adrian's heart swelled with gratitude, but Isabella's tone soon grew more serious. "However, now isn't the time. We're still in a critical situation. Once we rescue Eve and her mother, we'll celebrate properly with a banquet together."

Eve, standing nearby, felt warmth bloom in her chest. The Everhart family's consideration for her situation touched her deeply.

Adrian nodded, appreciating the thoughtfulness. "Thank you, Mother," he replied, then glanced around at his gathered family and allies.

"Before we move forward, there's something I need to tell all of you. It's a secret I've kept, but I trust everyone here."

Adrian activated his appraisal skill, his eyes subtly scanning everyone in the room to ensure their loyalty. However, when he reached his mother, Isabella, his breath caught. The stats that appeared before him were astonishing—far beyond what he had ever imagined.

Adrian was stunned by the sheer power of his mother's stats and skills. Despite her kind demeanor, Isabella was a force to be reckoned with.

Adrian continued as he didn't find any abnormalities on any people he trusted.

"I've found a way for us to get even stronger. I have access to a Virtual Training Chamber that allows us to train for what feels like a year. Our levels won't change, but we can master our skills and become far more powerful."

He let the weight of his words sink in before adding, "And that's not all. I have a secret army at my command. I can summon them at any time. We'll have the strength we need to face any challenge."
