'Your passive [Shenanigans] Lv.50 has evolved to [Way of the Fool] Lv.1'
Sofia was curious about the stumbling part, she didnt believe the scribe would add useless text. She stood on the edge of her bed, she took two steps on the thin railing but soon lost her balance. It took her a few seconds of flailing her arms but eventually she got back upright, no matter how many times she tried this, she really didnt fall. She only managed to fall when she really tried to counteract the skill, face planting on the bed.
In the meantime, the rat was stealthily coming back from the slime room, she had it level up there until it reached level 24. Nothing wasted. The new ability to not fall was interesting, she wondered if everyone had passives like these or if this was really unusual. If only I could find the churchs library
Her thoughts were interrupted by someone knocking on the window. Which surprised Sofia, considering that the window was overlooking a straight drop of several hundred meters. But the small man just stood right outside as if there was solid ground there and waved at her.
Sofia tried her best not to appear too shocked but what her instincts told her next made it hard to keep a straight face. Much like she could feel her skeletons status, she knew who this was just by looking. [Hero - Lv. 243]
She blinked and the man previously standing outside was now inside, dusting his clothes. He was dressed fully in a tight fitting black outfit of soft fabric, not a glimpse of skin could be seen apart from his face, which was probably usually covered by the horned white mask currently dangling from his belt. He looked to be around twenty-five or thirty and looked quite manly despite his smaller stature. Maybe it was the short black beard that helped.
Hey there, Im Michael, but everyone calls me Mike, you the new saint? he said in a friendly tone.Ñøv€l-B1n was the first platform to present this chapter.
Is this guy here to kill me? She considered fleeing but the man could just teleport it seemed, and she was still sitting on the bed.
Seeing her hesitate, the man just kept talking.
Dont worry missy, Im less dangerous to you than these guys in the church are.
Sofia. Why are you here? Are you not worried the guards will come?
Oh, no one here could hurt me if they tried, but Im not looking to start diplomatic incidents, Im just having some fun on my break.
Youre a summoned hero, right?
So youre really the new Saintess. Damn right Im a summoned hero, and let me tell you, the bread in my world tasted much better than the hard crap you eat here. How can a whole continent fail so hard at something so simple? The man was really angry that he couldnt find good bread; he started ranting about yeast and baking before reining himself back to the initial topic. Anyway, Sofia, hows life in Skyreachs Church treating you?
Look at the room. I have a bed and a carpet. Isnt this the height of prisoner luxury? Ive known worse. She sarcastically gestured, presenting the mostly empty marble room as a grandiose palace.
Yeah, the last one here wasnt a fan either
Do you just stalk Saintesses for a living?
Heh, what would you do in my place if any random asshole could just kidnap someone from your world whenever they please because some god decided so? Im just keeping track of whos who. In case cleanup is needed.
