Chapter 10:
The Chosen Hero No Longer Wants to Fight
I don't know if I'm going to continue this story, but I don't want to leave you with no answers so here is short summary of what my plans were.
SPOILERS AHEAD
Lumi has lived 7 lives and therefore possesses 7 core skills.
Magician – Allows the use of any magic observed by the user. Increases mana efficiency. Only requires 25% of the mana normally needed.
Superman – Increases the users physical abilities far beyond the norm.
Metallurgist – Allows the user to sense, control, and imbue metals
Contractor – Can for contracts with anything.
Lucky Scoundrel – The user can manipulate events within a certain perimeter to their benefit.
Teleporter
The 7th skill is called Absolute Law. 1 use takes 7 years lived and 7 years yet to be lived off the users life. Pending negotiation any law passed by the user will become reality.
Lumi will find a suitable candidate and use the skill. Upon it’s use her consciousness will be transported to the World Core where she will be confronted by two beings who are the split mind of the core. There is also a girl there who has been gifted the ability “Voice of the World”
Lumi finds out that skills have almost no meaning to the World. They give them out at random for their own amusement. And they have no regard for the power scaling. The only rule they have is the skill cannot directly harm the world core.
She manages to successfully negotiate having her hero skill and responsibility moved to another person of her choosing, however her core skills will be locked off.
She returns to find she’s now 7 years younger but as promised her hero status has been passed onto the boy named Rye.
She however did not verify his skill before giving him the hero status and belatedly finds out His core skill is “Bread”
She realizes despite his good looks and heroic heart he may have in fact been the absolute wrong choice for defeating the demon lord. Now she must take responsibility and train him to be the hero the world needs. This was going to be the true main plot of this story.
