Chapter 15 - Awakened ability and new Servant
As promised extra chapter is here.
------------
Seaman opened his eyes and found himself in a complete white space with nothing around.
Seaman remembered the last thing he did was breaking five ability crystals and hearing a notification from the system that the ability is awakening.
Seaman called for his system.
{ Your innate ability 'Shooter' is being Awakened.... }
{ You didn't have this ability inherently, so awakening progress is different. }
{ Awakening begins }
With the last message from System, the white space finally had some changes.
Countless guns suddenly appeared in this white space.
Each and every inch of space was filled with guns, Seaman looked at all these with a little surprise in his eyes.
One gun appeared in front of Seaman, Seaman held it and all information about it appeared in his mind, Seaman fired a shot and another gun appeared making Seaman repeat the same process.
Just like this, one by one Seaman used a total of 100 guns.
There were still countless guns left, but they didn't budge from their place.
{ Awakening progress completed }
{ Your innate ability 'Shooter' has been upgraded to Sharpshooter. }
Back inside the hotel room, Seaman suddenly opened his eyes and sat up.
"Whew That was really some otherworldly experience. I finally got an Awakened ability." Seaman smiled and got up.
"Although It was clearly different from Sheyan's experience in the original novel." In the original, sheyan found himself in a place which was colored in red, there was a thumping sound all around and he saw an empty City after waking for a while and in the center of that city was a palace. Inside the palace Sheyan saw a big gate covered in thorns, and a vertical rhombus shaped eyes in the middle of that gate. That gate introduced itself as the gate of fate which helped people awaken their innate ability when people crossed a certain growth line.
"Let's check Sharpshooter's details now." Seaman didn't think much about his experience and opened the description of his Awakened ability.
[ Sharpshooter (Innate ability): Attack power of all guns is increased by 30%. Your accuracy with all guns is increased by 50%. (Awakened) ]
[ Ability has been awakened, it can be used in the real world. ]
[ Pointer: All Guns have an inherent affinity towards you. ]
[ Innate ability grading: A Rank. ]
"30% increase in attack power of all guns, truly an A Rank ability of nightmare realm." Seaman smiled after checking the details of his Sharpshooter ability. With this ability and his new gun, the damage he can deal to his opponents has almost crossed 500 mark. Most of the contestants can be one shot with his current attack power.
(A/N: Ability grading of System and nightmare realm are very different.)
Seaman looked at the clock on the wall, it was showing 1:45 PM.
"Ohh it's already been so long, Sarrah's shift ends at 4 PM, let's do one last thing before I go meet her." Seaman spoke and took out the crimson key belonging to the upgraded version of T-750 he defeated a while back.
He used the key and the crimson chest revealed 13 items, 4 ability scrolls which Seaman already had, 5 Terminator body parts equipment, A damaged C.P.U. microchip, a battery and two ability crystals.
He checked the equipment's properties, left hand had the properties for long range combat, while the right had the properties for close range combat, both legs and armour were still the same as previous ones.
Seaman stored the ability scrolls and crystals inside his storage and took out the bodies of the Terminators he defeated previously from his spatial storage.
Then he took out the close combat terminator equipment set with another damaged CPU microschip, Cazider's dead body and placed it all on the upgraded Terminator's body.
"Let's see if it will work." Seaman concentrated and used his repair ability on the Upgraded Terminator and used all equipment except the one he was wearing, two damaged microchips, Cazider's body and another terminator's Body as repairing material.
Everything glowed and slowly merged together. Cazider's skin also glowed, peeled off itself and slowly covered Terminator's body leaving a bloodied body without any skin, just bloodied scarlet muscles.
After a minute, everything merged together and the glowing light subsided.
In front of Seaman was standing a person who looked exactly like Cazider just a little more buffed up.
[ You have achieved a Milestone 'Machine Lover'. ]
[ You are rewarded with the title 'Machine Lover'. ]
[ Condition for advance milestone 'Techno mechanic' has been unlocked. ]
[ Techno mechanic: Upgrade a Terminator and increase its capabilities by at least 100%. ]
[ You have achieved a milestone 'Techno mechanic'. ]
[ You are rewarded with a black iron title 'Techno mechanic' ]
Nightmare imprint notifications rang in Seaman's ear, as the Terminator appeared in front of Seaman.
He also achieved two milestones at the same time. By now, he has achieved a total of five milestones.
Terminator walked up to Seaman and stood up straight in attention, waiting for Seaman's orders.
"Hahaha i was right, after being repaired by me Terminator will follow me, this should be the benefit given by the nightmare realm." Seaman laughed looking at the Terminator standing still in front of him.
[ You have Repaired a Terminator, it will be listed as your servant. ]
[ Getting a servant is a very rare occasion in the nightmare realm, each servant is a great aid for its owner, you should cherish this opportunity. ]
[ Current loyalty of your servant is 100 points. ]
[ You can check the attributes and abilities of your servant anytime you want. ]
Nightmare imprint rang again. Seaman smiled even more after hearing the notification and opened terminator's attribute panel.

"This Terminator is clearly much stronger than a normal T-750. It might be able to compare with a T-800 too." Seaman was clearly very satisfied with this servant.
"And there is even a 10% attribute bonus, even better." This didn't mean that terminator will have 10% less attributes which will be transferred to Seaman but that Seaman will have bonus attributes which is 10% of terminator's basic attributes, while Terminator will retain its original attributes. (Str, phy, agi etc.)
Finally Seaman opened the title panel to see the effect of his new titles.

[ Machine predator: Damage dealt to machines will be increased by 15%. ]

[ Mahine lover: All machines operated by you will have their abilities increased by 50%. ]
[ Techno mechanic (Black iron): All machines after being repaired by you will have an additional special trait. Applicable only once per machine. ]
"Hahaha five titles already, i thought five would be the maximum number of titles i will be able to achieve in this world, but now i am not satisfied with just these, i want more!" Seaman felt a collection spirit for titles rise within him, he decided to get even more before leaving this world.
Seaman calmed himself down and looked at the clock again, which showed 2:15 PM.
"Let's go meet Sarah now, I have to increase my stay period to get more titles." Seaman spoke and came out of the hotel.
After stopping a taxi, he moved towards Big Jeff restaurant once more.
