Su Yang opened his eyes when he heard that voice. He looked down and saw Dagger Girl hugging him.
She did not seem to have changed. She was still the size of an arm, and when she hugged his legs, she did not look as big as his own calf and looked very cute. However, unlike before, her hands and feet were no longer blades, but flesh and blood…
Su Yang lowered his head and sized her up. She looked no different from an ordinary little girl, just a lot smaller.
She was wearing a silvery-white dress which seemed to be made of fabric but had a metallic feel to it. Also, it was exceptionally sharp.
Su Yang asked Dagger Girl in surprise, “Sister Dagger Girl, have you… transformed?”
Dagger Girl nodded repeatedly. “Yes, yes, Brother Su Yang.”
She nodded and did not forget to raise her hand and extended her five fingers, indicating that she was now a “human” with actual arms and legs.
Su Yang reached out and shook her hand. It was cold but soft.
Su Yang was pleasantly surprised. ‘In the past, she would injure anyone who touched her hands or feet. However, I did not expect for her to become a normal being this time after adding a point onto her.
‘However… although she’s now a normal being, her eyes still haven’t opened. They’re still tightly shut and it’s obvious that she’s trying her best to open them, but her efforts are in vain…
‘Based on the extent of her transformation, I feel that I would need to add another point before I could completely open up her eyes.
‘I’m really looking forward to seeing what’s in Dagger Girl’s eyes.’
While Su Yang was deep in thought, Dagger Girl also started to play by the riverside. Ever since she was born, she had no limbs, no eyes, no way to see and no way to touch anything. It was like the whole world was a complete stranger to her.
Now that she finally had limbs of her own, she could finally play freely.
She was playing happily by the riverside. From time to time, she would use her small hands to create a splash and giggle. After laughing, she did not forget to turn around and shout at Su Yang, “Brother Su Yang! Is this water? So this is how it feels to touch it.”
Although Dagger Girl had taken a shower before, the feeling of the water running through her skin and her touching it with her own hands were completely different.
This was the first time in her life that she had touched water, and she could not help but get excited.
The whole backyard was filled with her giggles and splashes of water.
After she was done playing with water, Dagger Girl fell to the ground again. She touched the thick soil and grabbed a handful of soil. In her cajoling voice, she murmured, “Wow, so this is soil.”
Su Yang walked over to take a look. “What you’ve caught there is grassroots.”
“Oh…” Dagger Girl threw away the grass root and grabbed another handful of soil. She continued to exclaim,” Wow, so this is soil. ”
Su Yang was speechless.
‘Forget it.
‘I’ll just forgive her since she’s a child.
‘After all, this was her first time seeing those things.’
Su Yang circled a few rounds around her, wanting to see what kind of ability Dagger Girl had obtained. However, after digging for a while, Dagger Girl suddenly stood up and spun around. Instantly, her silver clothes seemed to have turned into liquid and started to flow, followed by two lumps of silvery white liquid metal thrown onto the ground.
Su Yang was confused. ‘What is that?’
‘Dagger Girl’s clothes seem to be made of mercury, but could mercury be worn on her body? Would she not be poisoned?’
Just as he was thinking about that, something even more amazing happened. The two pools of liquid metal on the ground slowly turned into two monsters the size of a mouse.
Those creatures were silvery white in color. Their bodies shone with silver light and when they moved, it looked like a silver light was revolving around them.
Su Yang gently touched them and the silver color on the little monsters started to flow like mercury. A moment later, they turned back into two balls of silver liquid and hid behind Dagger Girl.
After hiding behind Dagger Girl, they slowly turned back into mice.
Su Yang looked at Dagger Girl curiously. “Sister Dagger Girl, what are those?”
Dagger Girl raised her head and “looked” at Su Yang. “Brother Su Yang, I don’t know either. I just feel like it’s an extension of my ability or my vassal. Anyway, it feels weird.”
“However, I do know their ability. Their bodies can transform into silvery-white liquid metal, their shapes can change and they can transform freely.
“As for the rest… I’m not too sure. They don’t even have names.”
At this point, Dagger Girl grinned and said, “Why don’t you give them a name, Brother Su Yang?”
Su Yang looked at the two little monsters that were hiding beside Dagger Girl’s feet. He thought for a while and said, “Why don’t we call them Quicksilver Monsters?”
Puzzled, Dagger Girl asked, “Why is it called a Quicksilver Monster?”
Su Yang replied without thinking, “Because they are silver in color. That’s why they are Quicksilver Monsters.”
Dagger Girl stroked her chin and thought for a long time before she said, “Brother Su Yang, this name sounds awful. Can you… change it? After all, I can’t see their colors.”
At the end of her speech, she sounded very cautious.
Su Yang replied nonchalantly, “Oh, sure. Let’s call it Quickgold Monsters then.”
Dagger was speechless.
‘Does… does he have to be so casual about it?’
She silently thought to herself. ‘But… Quickgold Monster doesn’t sound good either. But… at least it’s better than Quicksilver Monster. I’ll go with Quickgold Monster then.’
At that thought, Dagger Girl nodded her head. “Alright, Brother Su Yang. From now on, they will be called Quickgold Monsters!”
Su Yang patted Dagger Girl’s head, feeling that she was really cute.
‘If the other monsters in the house were half as easy to deal with like she is, then I would have saved myself a lot of trouble.’
Just as he was thinking about this, a notification suddenly appeared in his mind. [Dagger Girl +3, Change in form, talent changed to ability, obtained a subsidiary race (The level of race will increase as Dagger Girl’s level increases, currently +3)].
‘What?
‘I’ve seen her transformation and the birth of her subsidiary race. However, talent turning into an ability? What’s going on here?
Su Yang asked, “Sister Dagger Girl, has your talent changed?”
Dagger Girl shook her head in a faze. “I don’t know…”
‘Fine, I guess I’ll have to look at the system interface.’
Su Yang clicked on Dagger Girl’s talent panel. Instantly, Dagger Girl’s newly changed talent appeared before him.
‘Dagger Girl now has two talents. The first was her original talent, [The Sharp But Kind Dagger]. It could cut through anything but could only cause pain to living beings instead of causing any fatal damage.
‘The second talent is the [Quantum Overlap] where she could turn into nothingness or change into any form she wants. There’s no weight and no form. Hence, Once someone grabbed it and gave her special characteristics, she would follow and change her characteristics accordingly.
‘Now, her first talent, [The Sharp But Kind Dagger], has changed from being a talent to an ability.
‘In other words, Dagger Girl could freely control this talent?’
With that thought in mind, Su Yang got Dagger Girl to try controlling on her own.
‘As expected, when Dagger Girl wants herself to have the [Sharp Characteristics], she would become sharp. As long as anyone touched her, they would feel the pain of “cut”.
‘However, if Dagger Girl did not use this ability, she would become a normal little girl again. Of course… The prerequisite was that Dagger Girl needed to grow a few times bigger since she was now the size of a doll.
‘Furthermore, there was a change to this talent’s characteristic.
‘In the past, when Dagger Girl’s hands and feet touched an object, it would trigger her [Sharp Characteristics], but now… her entire body has [Sharp Characteristics] built into her, it’s like she’s covered in invisible daggers.
‘I would definitely be at ease if Dagger Girl were my daughter. After all, no one could get close to her unless she allows it.’
However… Su Yang was able to confirm one of his thoughts. ‘There is a difference in potential among the little monsters.
‘Some monsters will have a very high boost in their capabilities after adding 1 point onto them. However, some didn’t seem to have any changes, Little Hus for example.
‘There are even some little monsters that could directly jump and become high level monsters just from adding 1 point onto them.
‘This is due to difference in potentials.
‘When I have more and more little monsters in the future, I could judge their potential through the first 2 points added before deciding whether to give them more points.
‘Since I’ve already added a point for Dagger Girl, I might as well make this week’s special item as well.
‘My procrastination disease is getting weaker. I should be able to get it cured soon.’
With that thought in mind, Su Yang opened the system store and took a look at the items in the store that week.
[Protection Talisman]*3
[Random Point]*0
[Driving License Of Unknown Ability]
Nothing.
‘There were 5 [Protection Talismans] and 1 [Random Point] previously. However, I already bought all of them in order to add a point for Dagger Girl.’
The third compartment contained the recipe for this week’s item.
‘[Driver’s License With Unknown Ability]?
‘What’s that?
‘This looks strange.
‘Could I be able to pilot a tank or a spaceship with this license?
‘However, even if I have the license, I haven’t got the transport anyway.
‘Am I supposed to use the sticky note and make the transport?’
As he complained, Su Yang clicked to see what he needed to craft the item, +1 item, 10 clumps of grass, 1 stalk of bamboo…
‘There aren’t too many things, but all of them looked weird.
‘What are all these for?
‘Am I making paper?
‘Or is it going to be like the previous item where I just begin to cook the ingredients directly without any pattern?’
Su Yang was confused.
He could not figure out the logic behind the ingredients required for the recipe. He stopped researching and left the virtual space, intending to go out to purchase some items…
