MMORPG: Rebirth of the Mortal Online

Chapter 150: Innate Skill



The rapturous laughter filled the room.

After a short while, Argus' laughter died down, and he looked at Adam with a smile on his lips.

"Adam Palestar, was it?"

"Nn..." Adam nodded hesitantly, still trying to catch his breath.

Argus shrunk in size, returning back to his average height. However, his clothes were unfortunately far too big now, the fabric stretched and hanging loosely on his slender frame.

He let go of Adam and sat back on his seat, catching his breath.

"Whew, am I really getting that old?" He wryly smiled to himself and wiped the sweat off his forehead.

The transformation skill took a great deal of stamina and energy to maintain.

The skill-Giganticus-allowed him to increase his size and strength tenfold, but it always left him feeling drained afterwards.

Now, he only increased his size till he was five meters tall, but that wasn't his limit, and the bigger he grew, the more taxing it was.

Argus was a Grand Lord ranked mercenary, the same rank as the members of the Council of Mercenaries, but his transformation skill was legendary-ranked, way stronger than Amella's Great Shark transformation.

Thus, it had great power, but it came with significant drawbacks.

Adam climbed back to his feet, his legs shaking. He was also breathing heavily.

'The devouring is about to start...' Adam bared his teeth.

"What's this skill that you used?" Albertson asked. "It must be very high-ranked."

Adam kept his mouth shut. He didn't want to reveal anything about the Little God skill.

He didn't really want to use it here either, but he doubted that he would've been able to beat Edward otherwise.

"Wait, Albert..." Argus said with a lazy wave of the hand and looked at Adam. "I was thinking. This skill is not something one can just find. It must be Innate Skill."

"Innate Skill?!" Albertson breathed in cold air.

'Innate Skill?' Adam frowned. 'Is he misunderstanding?'

"Yes..." Argus nodded. "I noticed something when he attacked me. There was a different type of energy in his strike."

'Energy?' Adam looked thoughtful. 'I know that strong Kiryoku users can detect a certain energy in people's attacks.'

Albertson rubbed his small beard. "Energy sensing allows Kiryoku users to sense the power of the strike, or more precisely, they'll know what ranked the skill used is."

"Mm." Argus nodded. "I can sense whether my opponent is using Basic, Common, Uncommon, Rare, Azure Rare, Epic, Purple Epic, Legendary, Golden Legendary, and Mythical ranked skills."

"So what was Adam using?"

"Nothing." Argus said. "It can only be nothing if he wasn't using any skill."

Albertson exclaimed. "That cannot be possible. The illusion creation and that speed... He

must have been using some kind of high-ranked skill."

"That's why I believe he used Innate Skill." Argus said. "It is the only type of skill that no one can detect."

Adam scratched his chin thoughtfully.

Argus stood up and looked at Adam.

"You may not know it, but beside normal skills and magick skills, there are also Innate Skills. Those are the rarest type of skill that a player receives the moment they enter the game for the first time.

"Those kinds of skills will never disappear from you. If you die, that skill still stays with you and cannot be stolen. There are others with Innate Skills as well, but they are very rare, and most of the mercenaries don't even know that those exist."

'Wait, I think he is not wrong.' Adam thought with wide eyes. 'Could it be that the Little God skill is now my Innate Skill? It could explain how I had it without actually learning it.

'It was a Mythical-ranked skill in my past life, and I was only able to learn it with direct learning from the skill's creator-Little God himself-but to think that I was wrong to think that was the reason for why I had this skill.

'Somehow this skill became my Innate Skill after all!'

If true, it was extremely good news for him.

It meant no one could steal this skill from him.

It was one of the reasons why he tried to keep it hidden. It was a very valuable skill to have, and many would kill him for it.

However, if it meant that it was Innate Skill, there was nothing they could do.

'Has something changed with the Little God skill then?' Adam thought with a frown. 'I haven't studied it much, but it could be that this isn't the same skill as in my past life.'

When he looked at the skill's description, it was completely the same as in his past life. It was talking about cosmic harmony, eternity, and the cycle of birth and death.

To this day, he hadn't understood what any of that meant or why it was in the description of

the skill.

Ding, ding!

[Mystery Resolved!]

[Little God Is Transforming!]

[1%...]

[2%...]

'What?' Adam's mouth opened in surprise. 'What the hell is going on?!'

...

Somewhere in the New World.

Walking down a land made out of clouds, a figure came to a stop and stared out into the

distance with a confused look on his face.

"What's this?" Little God removed his hood to reveal a head full of curly hair with a crown of

thorns resting on top.

He felt something strange within himself.

It was like something that was part of Him was changing at rapid speed. He didn't understand what it was. This felt like a shift in the very fabric of His being.

"I feel dizzy..." He touched his head and swayed back and forth, as if he were about to pass

out.

It's something that he hadn't ever experienced.

"I am almost there..." Little God bared his teeth and continued striding down the land of

clouds.

The further he got away from that strange feeling, the better he started to feel. A sense of relief washed over him, knowing he was finally escaping whatever had caused his distress.

A short while later, he came to a stop with a deep look on his face.

Ahead of him, a golden gate stood closed like a silent guardian.

It was the gate to the Kingdom.

"Kingdom..." Little God sighed and stepped closer to the gates, and soon they swung open as

if they were welcoming him inside with a warm embrace.

With that, the gates again closed shut from everyone else, sealing off the Kingdom from the

outside world.

-

Near the crimson sea of the Old World.

"Nooooo!" Alastor fell down on his knees and started holding his head in his hands.

It felt like someone was striking his skull with a chisel and hammer.

A gold light started to spread through the dark sky, and the crimson sea's bloody waters

started to change with ocean-blue waves.

"No!" Alastor screamed in anger. "This is my world. This is the Old World. Don't you dare to change this as well; you will not take this from me!"

The anger in his voice resonated through the air, causing even the bravest warriors to tremble

in fear.

The voice reached every corner of the Old World, and alongside that, his dark powers stopped the gold light and ocean-blue waves from influencing this world any further. However, the lingering feeling of the warmth of God's omnipotent power still stayed behind.

That was something Alastor couldn't remove.

"I already removed Adam's power of holiness, as he was somehow touched by some God, but

to think that this my world can still be affected to such lengths.

"What did Adam do?"
