Chapter twenty-one: I Am OP
"To try out new skills my dear sister".
leaving his sister watching his back ,Lucien walked down to the last floor to see the receptionist and asked where he can get a private area to train that isn't monitored, unperturbed by this question as no one wants their skills and powers to be seen openly. Giving him the instructions and a ticket after he booked a private area for himself which cost him some cash he saved up; he left to go. Arriving at the area he stood in front of a locked gate and the floor lit up in runes and the door gave out a whirring sound as a patch on the gate opened up and revealed a scanner which scanned his body before stopping at the ticket in his pockets, realizing what it meant he brought out the the ticket which caused for the light to grow from green to red, scared something bad was going to happen he activated [Burst] and was ready to flee at any moment until a voice sounded out of the machine " Access ticket confirmed, You may enter" with the robotic monotone voice the gate opened and he walked inside still perplexed at such technology, a mixture between magic and science something that he still couldn't wrap his head around as he although he was once in the upper echelons of life he never had such in his house nor to speak of now with his poverty.
Entering the training area which seemed like a whole other world inside clouds in the sky even the sound of animals around, there was even a river, a river awe stricken by this Lucien failed to notice his shadow warping and a humanoid figure appearing behind him. A dagger was placed go his neck and finally noticing too late Lucien was scared beyond words he gulped with his Adam apple resting above the sharp blade glimmering under the fake sun "You really need to up your game brother, you don't know who could be hidining in the dark to kill you" with that familiar voice the dagger was removed from his neck, turning around he realized it was his sister who was looking at him with a smug look and a dagger in her small hand, her opaque hair styled in a pony tail and a mask on her face it was lyla who was playing a sick joke on him.
" You are evil " Lucien said looking at her with a wronged facial expression " Its your fault for not keeping your guard up, you need to learn that everywhere and anywhere is dangerous" she said while twirling the dagger in her right hand, watching her he scoffed and turned around and continued to admire the scenery, "Its fake you know" Lyla said from behind, ""I know I'm not dumb" Lucien said calmly with his back facing her.
"Soooo, what skills did your system give you" Lyla asked him, Lucien wasn't paying attention to her as he was reading the full description of his title/evolution before equipping it

looking at his sister(s) ridiculous stats Lucien had cold sweat running down his back as he just realized how screwed he would've been if Lyla really wanted him dead.
"What are you " He murmured those words absentmindedly realizing what he said he quickly asked if she wanted to help him practice his skills acting alot nicer to his younger sister, his face was grim when he asked them as he just realized how weak he is compared to his siblings, even his younger sister was stronger than him, he felt ashamed and he had the urge to get stronger so he can at least call himself a man cause he didn't consider himself one as he was weaker than his younger sister.
walking out to a field in the simulation him and his sister stood 100meters apart from each other "I'll attack and you just defend" His sister nodded as he gave her the command, not worrying about harming his monster of a sister he activated burst immediately and disappeared from his spot, his Lyla's widened a bit before returning to normal slightly surprised by her brothers increased speed which wasn't like the fight he had with Zakiel but realizing he seemed to have undergone a system evolution she accounted it to that and blocked the overhead kick coming her way without looking, a bit frustrated at how daily his sister blocked his attack he put backed off and gave her an overhook punch aiming for the back of her head, this time she dodged it by moving her head slightly to the left letting the ouch pass by her, it created an air canon that fluttered her hair while destroying a few trees, with his outstretched hand beside her Lyla grabbed him and flipped him over, he didn't even care he just realized how strong and fast he has become especially his speed. He's slowly becoming Op and he loved it, staring at his fist he realized how far he's come and seeing his sister made him realize how far he still had to go.
