World's Apocalypse Magician 11 Chapter 11: Meeting? I

Let's check the supportive skills. Maybe there's a disguise skill over there.

Oh my lord there is one. Thank goodness.

Oh, and another one...

and another.

and another.

What. the. h.e.l.l. Which one should I choose, d.a.m.n it.

System, can you suggest a good disguising skill available in my skill list? One that I could unlock right now?

Oh right, some people have awakened to being sensitive to soul and aura detection. I needed to be wary against those type of Espers, as they may detect my secrets.

After getting the supportive skill [Thousand Faces], I began to morph my appearance as well as soul and aura fluctuation based on the skill.

[Thousand Faces, lvl 5.

Allows the user to change one's soul and aura fluctuation, as well as facial features. It can partially alter one's body figure.

Effect lasts as long as the user wills it.]

After an hour, a group of figures appeared near Paolo, who was just resting by the man-made lake he made in the desert.

Upon seeing these group of people, Paolo visibly frowned, and spoke.

"What are you guys even doing here?" He asked, obviously annoyed that he was required to do this disguise and all by the system.

"Greetings, mysterious Esper. We come here to represent the UN to invite you to meet our leaders." One of the person wearing a black suit, which was quite weird for Paolo to see in this dry and hot climate to be worn, responded back.

"Meh, no thanks. Stop bothering me." Paolo responded in a nonchalant way, and continued to close his eyes while lying down by the lakeside.

"Sir, we came here for an important mission, which was to slay the beast that was causing the temperature anomaly. May we know if you already killed the beast?" The man in black suit asked once more, not caring at all that his invitation was rejected.

"One, if you guys don't leave right now, I'll make sure you won't ever leave this desert. Two, the drake is already dead. Three, why are you still here?" The moment Paolo said this, Ice elemental particles began gathering around him as he prepared to cast [Frigid Winter].

[Frigid Winter, lvl 5

Causes a gust of ice particles to appear and freeze everything at a temperature of -20 degrees Celsius. The higher the level, the lower the temperature becomes.

Damage: 500*skill level

DoT: 100*skill level + 2*Intelligence point, per minute.

Range: 30 meters in radius

Note: If the targets are immune to the freezing temperature, the skill is ineffective and will not deal any damage!]

He already checked the health points of the people nearby and none of them surpa.s.sed the value of 5000 points. This information made Paolo ask the system if he could see his own Health points.

"Everyone, disperse!" the man in black suit shouted, but the others were reacting too slow. They could already feel the temperature slowly decreasing, and ice was forming on the nearby lake already, indicating the temperature was already below ) degrees Celsius.

As they began to run, they couldn't help but feel their whole bodies freezing, their flow of blood slowing down to almost a stop, causing them to feel an inherent weakness overall. Their movements slowed down to a stop, and the fear and regret in their eyes were evident as their life was slowly drained from their bodies.

Of course, not everyone decided to run. Some even managed to launch their own attacks whether it be guns or their respective elemental abilities or even just abilities they have gained.

Take for example, a fire-based esper was able to create a fire barrier around him causing the temperature to rise up to above freezing. He even launched his own fire attacks towards Paolo, who was quite surprised at first, before snapping his fingers.

Instantly after, several [Torrential Bolts] appeared, and launched towards that fire esper. The fire esper, knowing that the person casted an attack against his own attribute, immediately intensified his fire, hoping to overpower the water elements.

However, before the bolts reach, Paolo snapped his fingers and everything returned to normal, as the spells were casted. Those who were frozen were able to move again, albeit they feel weakened from the effects of the spell.

For these people, Paolo immediately launched several [Life Bolts] towards these people. Life-elemental skills had the general function of healing non-nonliving organisms, or even hastening their growth. However, life elemental skills can also be used to overwhelm the life of others, resulting to a deadly outcome.

For example, the skill tree of life elemental offensive skills would be:

-Life Bolt

-Dance of the Life Faeries

-Silverwind

-Yggdrasil Dew

-Essence of the Earth

-Chandra's Wrath

-Mama Ocllo's Blessing

-Amun's Gaze

-Spring of Immortality

-Life Origin

He has not moved from his resting spot from the beginning of the whole exchange.

"Are you satisfied with what you experienced? Next time you bother me, make sure you are prepared to leave your lives. Shoo." Paolo spoke once again, killing intent present this time, as he had not bothered to hide it.

After all, he could have just killed them all and be done with it and complete the mission, but he realized that technology still worked; there were satellites monitoring every single thing in the world. The only way he could escape their sights is hiding in plain sight.
