ALL NOVEL 35 – The Plan!
—————————
PART 1 – Report!
—————————
After dealing with some of the group's internal problems, Skarla rested to continue maintaining the group's safety.
Zenyo, upon returning, was in a million times better mood, having regained his confidence. He eloquently asked for forgiveness from everyone in the group for his deplorable state, and he forgave Phinel for his evil actions, demonstrating that he understood that he was not entirely guilty of this.
He also admitted his mistake in how he treated everyone, saying he would get better.
Tropim shrugged. Whether the effeminate elf stays or not doesn't matter to him, but at least the group will still have financial support.
Calah accepted Zenyo's apology, but then ran to Skarla. - "What did you do?" - She was full of curiosity, but Skarla had no desire to talk, ignoring her. She tried to call him for several minutes, but to no avail, so she went to disturb Viper.
Viper doesn't have Skarla's technique for overpowering her senses or literally ignoring what a single person says or does. As a result, she was disturbed and relented, saying what Skarla probably did.
Belinda and Cecil didn't mind, accepting the apology. They never took Zenyo's rudeness to heart because they felt sorry for him, especially Belinda, who understood that Zenyo used this macho personality to compensate for something, and the fact that he literally became the group's clown only increased this feeling.
Holga snorted, accepting it and saying she didn't mind, but she said it. - “The next time you insult me, I promise you will feel something bigger in your ass!”
"I understand. Again, I ask for forgiveness, and this will not happen again.” - Zenyo said, escaping from there with some fear.
Sasha wasn't the target of his insults; she was one of the few he had any connection with. Pauline was not a target either; she was friends with everyone in the group, even if she remains a little distant in terms of feelings.
He apologized to Anna, but she accepted it lightly. She has more important things on her mind than an effeminate elf who got depressed after sucking a dick.
……
It was morning when they arrived at the nearest town. It was a small city ruled by a baron, but it was strong and had many adventurers and mercenaries.
Such a large group attracted attention, where Skarla and Anna went ahead with their identities, showing off their status.
This quickly led them to meet the baroness, a woman in her 50s who seemed quite kind, wearing luxurious robes as she welcomed them.
“Hello, adventurer and priestess. Could you explain to me why there are so many people here?”
Skarla explained about the Level 20 Succubus that escaped, as well as another one they encountered along the way. The baroness was surprised, showing empathy and saying. - “Of course we will receive them; I will send someone to take proper care of them.”
“Do you have any method of communicating with the Duchess? I have things to report to her.” - Skarla said calmly.
"Naturally. I will ask my mages to prepare the communication stone, but what do you think about informing me, and I will personally inform you?” - The baroness smiled.
“It won’t be possible; from the information I have, only the duchess should know.” - Said Skarla and the baroness frowned.
“Look how adventurous you talk!” - One of the guards on the side growled as he drew his sword, but energy appeared, preventing him from drawing it. - “Boy, dare to draw that sword, and you will not live to see the nightfall.”
“You dare threaten my knight?!” - The baroness growled.
“You are starting to interfere more than you should in the investigation; do you believe you have the capacity and authority to punish me for my rude actions? Do you believe the duchess will keep her eyes closed while you hinder the investigation?” - Skarla snorted and stood up. - “When communication is established, send for me and don't bite off more than you can chew, as I have full authority over this investigation, and if I see that you can interfere with the security of the duchy, I will kill you!”
The baroness trembled, furious, as Skarla left, as Anna next door said. - “Don’t provoke her; not even I can do anything against her. Skarla is an ally of the duchess as well as an aura warrior close to reaching legendary rank.”
As soon as these words sounded, the baroness, furious from the humiliation, turned pale. - "What did you say?"
The knight who drew his sword trembled intensely.
“Skarla is close to legendary level; she is probably the strongest person we have supporting us before the Empire personally sends its legendary powerhouses. Anyway, don’t piss her off and just obey.” - Anna said, then changed the subject. - “She didn't speak because she didn't want to drag out the conversation in an aggressive way, but I need her to move her troops, investigate the city for suspects, and be prepared to investigate nearby villages, as there may be more demon activity in the surrounding area.”
……
30 minutes later, Skarla, meditating in the courtyard, was called and returned to the castle, a spacious room with a crystal ball in the middle, which was showing the hologram of a beautiful woman with long black hair and violet eyes.
[“Skarla, what do you have to report?”] - Letiphia asked with a calm look.
“Anna, take everyone out of here; I need to speak alone with the duchess.” - Said Skarla and many frowned.
[“Get out!”] - Letiphia ordered before there were any complaints, and no one dared to object.
When everyone left.
[“So, what’s there to talk about? Or did you just decide to waste my time?”] - Letiphia narrowed her eyes as Skarla raised a hand and said.
“I met with the Level 20 Succubus; I almost killed her, but she ran away, and we chased her for a few days…” - Skarla started to report, but as her hands moved, her energy was surging and she was writing something in the air.
Letiphia looked at the writing; it was the real report, and her expression was shocked. She then acted normally when Skarla finished speaking. - ["I understand. I will send my main forces there immediately; it seems that it must be one of the focuses of the Sin of Lust. Stay in control of the barony for now; you have full authority to arrest and kill any suspect.”]
In her words, Letiphia was also writing something and showed it to Skarla.
[“I will handle the dispatch of troops in the designated villages, and the Radiant Church will move accordingly. Wait until I communicate; it will be the start of the operation; you and your group can start moving towards the main base of Lust; I and others will be there.”]
“Understood, I will await orders until then.” - Said Skarla then ordered everyone to return, and that was when Letiphia ordered that in the city, Skarla must be heard above everyone, except for her.
The baroness reluctantly accepted, so Skarla was left in charge of the barony.
—————————
PART 2 – Public Safety!
—————————
It's not because Skarla was in charge of the barony that she had to manage everything. She gave orders for the baroness to follow and then began working in security.
Using her keen senses and the perception to perceive the most subtle amount of evil energies, she walked around the city, especially in the areas where it has the most houses, as well as the favelas, where the most criminals live.
And as she was already passing through here, Skarla decided to guarantee security for the barony amid the search for demonic allies.
The entire group began working in the favelas, where Skarla took the opportunity to teach Viper how to feel subtle changes in each person's internal energy. Making her discover that when the energy is detected and its peculiarities are discovered, regardless of the disguise, or even if the person is using strange techniques to hide, it will still be possible to detect it.
Because of this, Viper is not able to surprise Skarla; she has already memorized her energy waves, and as she doesn't know how to control them, it goes without saying that there is no way for her to hide, only if Skarla is very inattentive, which is practically impossible.
And so, on the first day of authority, she began to move the troops, placing her allies to guard certain passages in the favelas, preventing the corrupt soldiers from letting the bandits escape.
And so the operation began during the night.
……
Ezequiel, a soldier for almost 20 years, protected the barony all these years but ended up giving in to greed a few years ago and thus became an ally of criminal factions.
He thought there would be no problems and that nothing would ever get to him. But then Skarla arrived—this adventurer who was in control of the city and would begin a thorough investigation.
As a result, he ran as fast as he could to warn the criminals to leave the city, as they are his source of extra income, and as they have a lot of sensitive information, it is better for them not to be caught.
So he took advantage of the night, as he didn't believe that Skarla and her group would start investigations so soon; they would certainly be busier dealing with the confused citizens and managing the guard.
For him, it would be a quick 1 hour thing; he thought that would be the case, but when he got to the criminal faction,.
“Don’t bother me; I need to talk to the leader now!” - Ezequiel growled and pushed the bandit who tried to approach him.
Ezequiel advanced fearlessly among the bandits until he reached where the leaders were—two twin brothers surrounded by women.
"Hey, you idiots!” - Ezequiel shouted, attracting the two's attention, but they didn't get up. - “You guys need to get out of town now!”
“Hey! Hey! Hey! Calm down, Ezequiel. Grab a girl, relax, and tell her what’s going on.” - One of the brothers laughed as he filled a glass with alcohol.
“We don’t have time; you need to leave the city tonight. You know that group of people and adventurers who arrived because of demons? The group leader has complete authority, only below that of the duchess herself. She will begin an investigation looking for signs of demons and will likely take advantage to annihilate you all.”
“Hahaha~ anything, just give some money and you’ll leave us alone.” - The other brother laughed as he pulled a girl onto his lap.
"No! This adventurer is said to be a master; she would not accept bribes. The group she leads has three individuals above Level 10. I even heard a strange rumor that the leader is almost at Legend Level.” - Ezequiel growled, words that finally put the brothers on alert.
“If you come here, I doubt all the wealth you bums have made will be enough to make her and her group close their eyes. Without realizing that the old witch no longer likes you, she will take the opportunity to incriminate you.” - Ezequiel said hurriedly.
"OK." - The first of the brothers said, sighing. - “Tell them to gather their things, hide the important things, and let’s leave the city for now.”
The second brother sighed, moving the girl off his lap and standing up. - "OK."
BOOM!
A huge explosion sounded, shaking everyone at the same time…
[Sneak Attack Test(Advantage)]
—D20+13 = 18 & 17!
Something dark was between them. The first brother, not noticing until the taste of death was in his mouth, shuddered as screams came.
"BROTHER!" - A roar echoed from the second brother, who was already running while his brother had his throat open and fell to his knees.
{Shadow Veil}
The female figure, which was barely visible, was soon enveloped by shadows, disappearing before everyone's eyes.
[Stealth Test]
—D20+14 = 22!
[Perception Test]
—D20+4 = 17!
—D20+2 = 9!
…
Everyone looked around in fear, while the second brother grabbed his bleeding brother and choked on his own blood. - “DAMN IT! I’LL RIP YOU!” - He roared painfully as he looked up and held his brother.
[Sneak Attack Test(Advantage)]
—D20+13 = 29 & 22!
In response to his pain. - “Join your brother.” - A cold voice sounded, grabbing his hair, and then a blade slid across his neck, decapitating him.
Viper, with a calm look, turned to Ezequiel, recognizing him; she hardly forgot a face and knew that he was a soldier.
AAAHHH!!!
Terrified Ezequiel turned to run away, but soon bumped into someone; it looked like a wall, even though the area where he hit his face was quite soft.
Falling to the ground, he grunted in confusion, looking and becoming even more terrified, looking at the beautiful, muscular giantess with bloody fists. - “I told you the mouse would take us here.” -Skarla said, smiling and stepping forward. Ezequiel tried to escape past her, but the crackling sounded. He looked, and lightning hit her face, and he fell to the ground, spasming vigorously.
“This sensory perception, as you call it, is strange. How can you tell each person apart?” - Viper asked, frowning.
“With practice comes perfection. Don’t worry, you’ll get used to it quickly.” -Skarla said, smiling slightly as she looked at the women around her, all terrified. - “Small game; find the slave.” - Skarla said, smiling, and Viper understood, looking around.
[Perception Test(Disadvantage)]
—D20+10 = 28 & 22!
Viper narrowed her eyes, spreading her senses and energy; it's strange for her, but soon her eyes fell on a girl who seems to be 15 ~ 16 years old, with black hair and blue eyes, quite beautiful, and with a slender physique.
"I thought!" - She said, moving forward, and the girl trembled in terror.
Skarla clapped her hands but already appeared behind the girl, touching her head and paralyzing her.
……
The criminal factions, along with smaller gangs, began to flee the favelas, but what awaited them was nothing more than all the available troops of the barony. There weren't many, but due to the presence of notable adventurers, as well as Anna leading a group of churchgoers, they managed to stop any conflict from spreading.
Skarla found the secret passages that some criminal organizations used—tunnels that led to the sewer system or directly out of the city.
And what did Skarla do? She couldn't fit in these tunnels; if she squirmed, she would be able to, but she didn't want to. She also didn't want Viper to get dirty and waste time, so it was another training method.
Skarla took Viper, and all she had to do was find the moles. Viper tried and failed many times, with Skarla giving a varying score of 1~10. The highest grade she got was 7.
And what did Skarla do? She only sent electrical waves underground, as well as causing the collapse of such tunnels, not bothering about the criminals being buried.
Naturally, the city was full of holes because of this, but the baroness would take care of the renovations; it's the least she could do after letting crime in her lands reach such a point.
And to make matters worse, they only found seven sex slaves. Which didn't have much relevance or useful information.
Skarla managed to control their minds through electricity, but the information they had was useless. Obviously, the Succubus she created for them was the same one Skarla killed. All the information they held was related to this specific one.
…
The city was in real confusion; soldiers were walking everywhere, houses and brothels were being raided, and people were being dragged into the streets.
Unfortunately, in the many conflicts that occurred, many soldiers were killed. Sasha and Holga, who ended up being involved in one of the main conflicts against bandits, ended up injured and almost dying, but Calah appeared and helped them with potions. Then Anna and Phinel came to provide the necessary support.
When morning arrived, everything was slowly calming down. The people who didn't get a good night's sleep were happy with the results.
Hundreds of people were killed and captured, all bandits who had been disturbing the peace. Not to mention that several corrupt soldiers were captured.
Everyone was thanking Skarla, having discovered that she was the adventurer who was bringing proper security to these lands. When she was thanked by the humble people, Skarla just said, - “Thank the duchess; she sent me.”
……
Naturally, Skarla did not finish her actions to bring security to the land. Having captured many bandits, he discovered their relationships with notorious bandit groups living outside the city, harming villages and traders.
Skarla left with her group the next day, leaving the baroness to deal with the damage and prepare for the executions.
So in the week that followed, Skarla and his group raided criminal camps, finding some sex slaves among them, at the same time that the barony's troops were thoroughly investigating several nearby villages.
—————————
PART 3 – Southwest!
—————————
After dealing with criminal factions inside and outside the baroness city, The group supported investigations into the villages, purposely spreading the news.
Letiphia, who was in constant motion, heard the various news, satisfied with the performance of Skarla and her group, but… - “Karsa needs to be removed from her post. I believe she has become too old and cannot even properly govern her lands.” - She said this to Alpha.
"I fully agree. We had information about corruption and negligence, but it was not taken seriously. I will research the reasons for this, and if I discover corruption within the shadows, I will take care of it immediately.” - Alpha said with a cold look, not believing that such an elaborate rat's nest existed in the duchy.
Letiphia nodded. -“I believe we will need to give a great reward to Skarla and his group.” - She scratched her chin.
“I believe money will be enough.” - Alpha said.
“For everyone, yes, except for Skarla and Anna. The church uses Anna's presence to claim more merit, and as the 2nd Prince is closely linked to the Radiant Church, he is likely to use this to increase his influence.” - Letiphia narrowed her eyes.
"In fact. My lady, what do you think about requesting a report from Skarla regarding Anna's performance? Didn’t you put her in the group due to probable conflicts with Skarla?” - Alpha asked, smiling, and Letiphia's eyes shone.
"Exactly. I doubt the two didn't conflict. I believe the Crown Prince will owe us a great favor if we succeed in diminishing the merits of the church as much as possible.” - She smiled.
It's not that Letiphia has enmity with the church, just that their forces are contradictory, and as she has lived in this political scenario for a long time, she knows about the problems that have occurred in the past between the church and anyone linked to demons or evil entities.
As a sorcerer, she, with her many evil contractors, naturally becomes a target of the Radiant Church. Even though she does not have the full strength she once had, if they regain it, it is likely that she and her family will suffer persecution.
Not to mention her many political enemies, where rumors are already spreading that because of her connections and contracts with evil entities, she let the demons reach her lands and is preparing some great ritual.
The worst thing is that many are believing it, and apparently the Radiant Church is part of the rumors.
In other words, due to so many factors, the chances of her having as her enemy the 2nd Prince, who has one of the main factions in the empire, are very high. So the best thing now would be to ally with the Crown Prince; even if it is not an alliance of servitude or full support, it will at least prevent the growth of the 2nd Prince's Faction.
…
Amidst the complex thoughts and discussions, a shadow entered the tent, falling on his knees. - “3 of the 8 groups are already positioned.”
“How long until the remaining five arrive?” - Letiphia asked.
“In less than 48 hours, everyone will be in position.” - Replied the shadow.
"OK. You can go out." - Letiphia said, but as soon as the shadow left, another entered, seeming more alert.
“A gluttony creature has appeared in the Marquisate of Trapom; its level is estimated to be close to 20!” - Said the shadow.
Letiphia was surprised. - “Have we received news from the Marquis?” - She asked alertly.
"Not yet." - Replied the shadow.
"Hang on. If it’s the Marquisate of Trapom, does that mean Pietra is the closest?” - Letiphia narrowed her eyes.
"Yes. We received a report from one of the shadows with Miss Pietra.”
“Contact Pietra now; I want to know what she’s doing.” - Letiphia felt a pang in her heart, knowing that something was wrong.
……
In the Southwest, bordering the Marquesado de Trapom!
Pietra received reports, as well as the marquis himself getting in touch.
[“What do you think you’re doing by letting these things walk on my land?! Fix it now!”] - The marquis roared as he hit his table.
“We are taking care of it; you don’t have to worry.” - Pietra said.
[“Don’t I need to worry? HOW NOT?! An almost legendary-level creature is causing chaos in my lands; do you know how many of my men have already been killed?!”] - The marquis growled furiously.
“Stop causing a storm in a teapot. We are already going to take care of the creature since you don't have the capacity to deal with something like this.” - Pietra said it with disdain.
[“You dare disrespect me, girl?!”] - The marquis growled with a vicious look.
“Here in the duchy, we have already taken care of three of these creatures and dozens of others. We are facing Level 20 Succubi, and my brother has already gone to war against corrupted sea creatures and some barbarians from the north. The entire duchy is at war, and we're not complaining like children, yet you're just losing a few soldiers and coming to cry and scream at me? Make sure you have a minimum of respect and dignity; if you can’t handle it, just say so; don’t bother me.” - Pietra snorted while rubbing his ear, the Marquis shivering violently.
“If you’re done with your tantrum, little girl, I have a demon to kill.” - Pietra waved her hand.
[“You’re going to pay for this, you bitch!”] - The Marquis growled.
“Ohh~ really? Argh! Shit, I have so much stomach pain.” - Suddenly, Pietra bent down while holding her belly, and the marquis was surprised. - “I think I’ll have to delay dispatching the troops until I recover. Goodbye!”
Communication was cut off; the marquis shouted, and Pietra laughed, standing up and saying something to her shadow. - “Report what happened to my mother and station some troops at the border; also get more information; and… don't accept this pig's flames; I feel like I'll get sick if I look at him or hear his rotten voice.”
"I understand." - Said the shadow, bowing and going to work.
Pietra picked up some documents, growling. - ‘Seriously, this bitch’s name keeps coming up!’ - She thought when she read Skarla’s name.
…
“How can I help, Mom?” - Pietra asked.
[“What is your plan of action in relation to the demon in the marquisado?”] - Letiphia asked quite calmly.
“I’ll watch for now, the marquis said he would try to take care of it.” - Pietra said, smiling, her mother noticing that it was an obvious lie—that pig would never make such a decision.
["It's good to hear it. But don't give the pig opportunities to harm us. I will personally be participating in a mission that could lead to my death, so be careful.”] - Letiphia said it seriously, and Pietra, smiling, was surprised.
“If it’s so dangerous, let the adventurers handle it.” - Pietra said, showing concern.
[“I can't say because of possible interception, but we don't have enough. But if I don't return, listen to your brother. I hope they drag out the internal conflicts as long as possible until the situation is resolved, and… if Skarla survives this, do everything to make her your ally.”] - Letiphia said it seriously.
“Oh? Her again? What’s so special about her?” - Pietra growled.
[“Skarla holds secrets that could lead our family to prosper above all others in the empire, including the imperial family itself. Having her as an enemy will be the biggest foolish thing you could do. I already warned your brother, and now I'm warning you. Skarla needs to be an ally of the Veremor family at any cost; never be against her. Earn their trust; if you do, I guarantee you that there will only be advantages. Advantages that not even the imperial family can provide.”]
“…” - Pietra was shocked by her mother’s words, never expecting it.
["Daughter, I love you. I wish you luck.”] - Said Letiphia, who hung up the call. Pietra growled, and with a sigh, she said. - "I love you too, Mom."
—————————
PART 4 – Last Moments!
—————————
Amid the purge of criminal factions close to the barony, reaching the point where the troops, Skarla and his group, went to other nearby cities for investigation.
In this process, it was discovered that lust, which seems to be predominant in this region, was retreating. Noticing that they were discovered, they wanted to take refuge, and Skarla noticed quickly.
“They are leading us in the opposite direction.” - She said she was looking at the map.
The place that the Succubus told him and where the first one they hunted was fleeing to was the Northwest, close to the pass to the Krugar Mountains. But the tracks pointed to the southeast.
The chances of the Succubus having lied were low. Skarla made sure she understood what a mistake it was to lie to her.
With this information, they were tracing and observing the movements of their enemies.
“Maybe they’re about to make a move, or they’re going to reposition themselves.” - Holga said, scratching her chin and looking at the map.
"Unlikely. They must be trying to buy time by sacrificing the slaves and luring them in the opposite direction. They must be planning something and want as much time as possible.” - Skarla said it seriously.
"Unfortunately, the Succubi had no information about their plans.” - Pauline said, sighing.
"In fact. But I believe it is related to invocation. From what I understand, not all of the descendants of sin have come here yet. Lust, Gluttony and Wrath, so far, are the most predominant; there are traces of the others, but... not so much now.” - She calmly pointed out on the map the border with the Marquisate of Trapom. - “There is an occurrence of gluttony in Trapom.”
“I'm not the best for this; I believe Phinel would have more information, having lived longer and studied magic longer than me. But, as far as I know, summoning such powerful demons requires a lot of sacrifice and preparation. But doesn’t corruption occur with the presence of one of these descendants?” - Belinda scratched her chin and raised an eyebrow.
"Yes. Summoning any creature depends largely on the characteristics of its energy and the dimension in which it lives. Hell is a brutal and cruel dimension; naturally, what attracts such creatures are living sacrifices and resources related to their representation. We don’t know how it works, but since this is still a development of spies and corruption rather than an all-out war, it shows that they are still preparing.” - Phinel said, and everyone agreed.
This is quite obvious, because if they had the strength to start a war, they would not corrupt the people but would have come with demonic hordes to devastate the duchy and nearby territories.
“We also cannot ignore the Krugar Mountains. We haven’t gotten much information from our spies on the other side, so we don’t know if the presence of the other sins is more prevalent there.” - Viper said calmly, and it was another worrying point.
Due to the Krugar Mountains being a very isolated place in the empire, it results in a lack of information. The language barrier is also another annoying point; there are many languages spoken in the mountains.
“Skarla, aren’t you from there? Don’t you have any information about the time you lived on the other side?” - Calah asked curiously; naturally, she knew a little about Skarla's history and knew where she was born.
And this revelation made everyone look at her. - “I have no information about this. Apparently everything started to emerge after leaving the mountains.”
Many were curious to know more. Naturally, you have heard the stories of the many conflicts that occurred between the empire and the people of the mountains, the legendary warriors there, where there are said to be many legendary individuals, even though they all died in the last large-scale war.
"OK. Let's put that aside and focus on what matters. We are attracting the attention of these things, but soon the duchess will be ready, and we will use the teleportation device to go to the fortress, and together we will go to the enemies' main base.” - Said Skarla pointed to the map.
“Now is the last chance; whoever doesn't want to go, stay out now. We will probably end up facing some legendary-level individuals." - Skarla said it seriously, and even though everyone was hesitant, no one refused.
Nodding, she dismissed everyone while she went to get ready herself.
……
Skarla is sitting; in front of her are some of the sex slaves, tied to trees, all naked.
There are 4 in total; she is observing them, where the first is having constant spasms and intense tremors, the second seems to be having trouble breathing, the third is shaking, and the last appears to be very calm.
“Hmmm… electricity, wind, and metal end up having obvious presences; probably a legendary individual is capable of controlling and expelling internal energy, but fire… It’s curious how the bodies of people in this world adapt to this specific element.” -His eyes shone as he stood up and assessed his victim.
As for what she's doing? Practicing with your new skill:
—————
● Internal Energy Dispersal Attack ●
● Fill your strikes with compressed energy so that if it hits the target, the energy will penetrate your body, accumulating and spreading faster.
● There are no limits to how much energy you can carry and compress, the damage varies greatly.
—————
This is something she didn't have many thoughts to focus on, but then, having discovered the weakness of the people of this world, the inability to sense, manipulate or expel any invading energy, it became a useful weapon for her.
In Murim, focusing on this would be pointless, but here it seems to be the best choice.
…
Having discovered that among all 4 of her manipulable energies, that of the fire element is considered the most stealthy. Certainly this must be due to the corruption that is transforming them into demons and apparently these creatures' affinity with fire is greater.
But whatever the case, Skarla was modifying her abilities, one of which was [Triple Impact].
—————
● Dragon Claw (Level 1) ●
● Requirement: 1 Point.
● Cost: 3 Aura & 30 EP.
● Attack with weapons or fists, causing an area attack in the form of 3 dragon claws.
● Range: 8 Meters.
—————
Skarla decided on a Claw attack, because of the area of effect. Just like her last slot was filled by:
—————
● Internal Destructive Impact (Level 1) ●
● Requirement: 1 Point
● Cost: 1 Aura & 5 EP.
● Perform a powerful burst of energy that will internally destroy the individual, causing double the damage.
—————
As people apparently don't know how to deal with damage that occurs internally without the help of magic, Skarla decided to invest in this. She doesn't need flashy attacks, just efficient ones that can be used depending on the situation.
…
Days later, Skarla received a message and it was time to act!
