Walking in the Twilight
Chapter 2: My First (Important) Kill
[I highly recommend fleeing from this place as quickly as possible Master, we didn't have a… silent landing per say] Great Sage advises me.
"Oh reaaaaally, who would have thought." I say, sarcasm clearly in my voice as I start running away from the medium sized crater that surrounded me 'Now, if this village is still here and since I seem to be about,' checks body 'four years old I can probably enter Beacon at the same time as the main characters.' I think as I stop running and start walking to the entrance of the village, in the end, who will pay attention to a four-year-old kid right?
"Hey you, what are you doing out here kid?" Murphy… I normally try to give people a chance before judging them, but if I ever find you, I will kick you in the balls.
[Activating Thought Acceleration x60]
"Hey kid!" the guard yells at me after not receiving an answer for 10 seconds, well 10 seconds for him, 10 minutes for me. Despise the headache that it gave me it was worth it.
"I-I am really sorry sir, b-but I really wanted to see my daddy f-fight those big bad monsters off so I hided and went with them…" I said sounding ashamed and looking to the ground "P-Please don't tell him, I swear that I will not get out more." I say trying to make puppy eyes, I was four years old, I had to take advantage of it.
"You're telling me, that you, a kid, managed to sneak your way out of our village without anyone noticing, the same village that have 2 guards in each exit?" he asks with a deadpan look… I just fucked up didn't I? "God damnit, I am always scolding those damn guys for sleeping in the work… Let's do it like this kid, I don't tell your dad if you don't tell anyone that you managed to get out of the village without the guards noticing, if anyone knew about that… I can't even imagine what the elder would do to them." He says shivering "You are close to the entrance so you shouldn't be attacked by any Grimm." He says turning around, a signal that I took for 'run before I change my mind', a signal that i obliged almost immediatly.
"Thank you so much sir, I promise I won't do it again." I say waving to the guy while running as fast as I could.
[That… was impressive.] Great Sage congratulates me.
"Impressive my ass, I must have spent almost two years' worth of luck in there." I say slowing down when I finally reached the gates 'Who would have thought, they really are asleep.' I think giving a weak chuckle as I entered the village, now, time to see where I really stand in the timeline.
'One day, no, I have less than one day to prepare for the Grimm attack, I just saw Nora being bullied and Ren being a pussy by running away, I am so unprepared, how can a kid fight a fucking Grimm invasion? I was gonna die, I was gonna die one day after being reborn, I don't want to die, no, no no no NO NO NO NO NO!

'…Thanks.' I say after 5 minutes
[You're welcome Master, do you have a plan?]
"Yes." This ability, it was just so overpowered "Yes I have." in only 5 minutes in the real world, I had 10 brains working for 100 minutes to make an infallible plan "Let's kill Lie Ren."
Roaaaaaaaaaaaar!
"Huf huf huf huf…"
"F-Father? Where is Mother? What's going on?! WHERE IS MOTHER?!"
"T-Take actions son… your mother and I… love you."
"Sob, sob, sob…"
"Don't worry kid, you don't have to cry anymore, because from now on, you're gonna become part of something greater…" a strange kid with white hair says as he approaches me immediately after I calmed down "…you're gonna become a part of me."
"W-Wha…"
Chomp
[Lie Ren successfully absorbed, Semblance: Emotion Masker(I know, it is a shitty name, blame Rooster Teeth that don't give official names to semblances) acquired, would you like to analyze your new semblance?]
[Yes/No]
'No.' I answer quickly approaching a crying Nora while trying to activate Ren's semblance in both of us.
[Error, Aura unlocked is needed to perform this action, do you wish to unlock your Aura?]
[Yes/No]
'YES YES YES!' I think as I see a Grimm starting to approach us.
[Aura successfully unlocked, activating Lie Ren's Semblance…]
"Shhhh, everything is going to be okay now." I say hugging her and patting her head while both of us lost our colors for a second "I am not gonna let any of the big monsters hurt you ok?" I ask her while giving a reassuring smile.
"Sniff, y-yes, let's go." She says more calmly thanks to Ren's semblance while trying to get up.
"Forget it, come here, it will be quicker this way." I say signaling for her to get on my back.
"O-Of course." Nora answers while hoping to my back "H-Hum mister, why are we running in the contrary direction of the other people?" she asks shrinking each time a Grimm passed.
"Shhhh, I already said didn't I?" I ask with a smile "I am not gonna let any of the bad monsters catch you so you don't need to worry ok? Now close your eyes please it will be easier to carry you that way." I say with a trusting smile.
"Oh o-okay." She says closing her eyes
'SHE BOUGHT THAT?!' I ask myself incredulous 'Well, she is just a kid so it shouldn't be that strange but still… no, it doesn't matter right now, I can't afford to lose any more time. Let's go Great Sage.' I think starting the second part of my Master Plan.
[Of course, Master.]
[Predation Skill Activating…]
I catch the first dead hunter that I find absorbing him.
[Semblance: Heat Resistance acquired, would you like to…]
"Don't have time for it, I will analyze them all later, next!"
[Predator Skill Activating…]
It was a woman this time.
[Predator Skill Activating…]
And a child in the next.
[Predator Skill Activating…]
It didn't matter what they were, in the end…
[Predator Skill Activating…]
… they all just became materials that I would use to grow stronger.
"Oh, she ended up sleeping." I mumble, she too would become like them, just another pawn I would use to reach the top, but when I looked at her innocent face, I couldn't help but let a little smile take form in my face… "So Great Sage, looks like we have a big walk ahead of us, why don't you tell me about those semblan… did you hear that?" I ask quickly turning to the direction where the sound came from.
[I sense three human presences and another non-human, please be careful Master.]
"Don't worry, I will just take a little peek and if it is dangerous, I will come back." I answer him while laying Nora against one of the many trees in that forest.
"Huf huf, come on you fucker, we are not dead yet." I hear one of the three mans in front of me saying, from what I could see he was the least injured of the three and had… metal legs? Anyway, he was the only one capable of standing against the Alpha Beowolf that now that I look at him didn't looked that good either.
"AAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" the man screams launching himself against the Alpha in a desperate attempt of killing the beast, that for the likes of it, succeeded, but with a cost, the Alpha gave one last bite in the man that was now bleeding on the ground almost unconscious while the Grimm started to fade.
"Oh no you don't, Great Sage!" I say while, after making sure that none of them (the mans and the Grimm) could do anything against me, launching myself against the fading Grimm.
[On it Master!]
[Predator Skill Activating…]
[Alpha Beowolf successfully absorbed, Skill: Grimm Form acquired, you now can mimic an Alpha Beowolf and his abilities: Lunge, Claw Strike and Bites, if an attempt to use these abilities in human form is done the required part of the body to use the ability will automatically be Grimmified. Example: If an attempt to use Claw Strike while in human form is done your hand will grow Grimm claws so you can do the attack correctly, the same applies to the other techniques.]
"KID!" the man screams and I look at me "Finally, now could you…"
"Oh I almost forgot about you, thanks for remembering me." I say with a big grin.
[Predator Skill Activating…]
"H-Hey, what are you doing? No, g-get away, GET AWAY FROM ME YOU FREA…" he screams trying to get up and ran.
"Shhhh, I don't want to wake up little Nora there ok?" I say with a psychotic smile after absorbing him.
[Predator Skill Activating…]
[Predator Skill Activating…]
And with that that little event ended and I allowed myself to rest a little laying down next to her.
"Now, about those Semblances…"
Ding
[Instinct Evasion: you have the instincts of a hunter that spent years honing them, as they use to say, if you can sense you can dodge it.]
[Sense Presence: Nobody can hide from you, say goodbye to being followed, depending on the aura that you spend on this skill you can sense anything in 1km radius.]
[Sense Danger: Even the most skilled hunters can't sense all attacks, well say goodbye to that, with this semblance there isn't any attack that you can't sense.]
[Sense Heat Source: Identifies any heat reactions in the local area. Not affected by any concealing effects.]
[Night Vision: Thank that Faunus you absorbed for this.]
[Do you wish to fuse these five semblances and create another one stronger?]
[Yes/No]
'Oh, interesting, if this makes me more powerful semblances fell free to do it anytime you want' I think while pressing yes.
[Instinct Evasion, Sense Presence, Sense Danger, Sense Heat Source and Night Vision were used as materials to create a new semblance.]
[Observer: Surprise attacks? People hiding in the most obscure corners? A damn spy that you can't localize? Those are other people problems, with this semblance there is nothing that you won't see.]
'…ok. You would make a great seller in my world.' I think laughing lowly 'What about the others?'
[Heat and Cold Resistance Semblances acquired, fusing semblances…]
[Thermal Resistance Semblance acquired: From the high temperatures of the Vacuo deserts, to the cold winters of Atlas, you could walk naked or completely dressed that it would be the same shit to you.]
'Oh… this one is pretty good too, show me the next one' I say with a big grin, godhood here I come.
[Perfect Clone: By giving up one part of your body you can create a perfect clone of you, please note that for it to be perfectly functional you need to give away an arm or a leg, but in exchange you gain another you that have the exact same capabilities (is uncapable of betraying you though) and can evolve just like you, and the best part is that you can reabsorb them after that and gain your member back, together with any skill or semblance that your clone gained. (The previous user of this skill was the man with the metal legs that was fighting the Beowolf).]
'Yeah… even if the advantages are pretty good I like my body complete thank you very much…'
[Faunus Trait acquired: Dog ears (let you hear better and farther) and Dog nose (let you smell better and farther), please note that they need to be equipped for the traits to work.]
'Not bad, not bad at all…' I think a grin forming on my lips 'Is that all?' I ask yawning.
[Yes, in regards to Semblances it is.] Great Sage answers me sounding… amused?
"What do you mean in regards to Semblances?" I ask him, forgetting that I could have just thought it.
[Well, besides some hunter's weapons, let's just say that when people have to quickly run away from their homes, they normally try to catch the most valuable thing at hand and run away with it, in this world, it is Lien and Dust.] I swear that I could see the bastard giving a shit eating grin as he said that.
"How much?" I ask him with a smile, but now seriously, this is starting to scare me, I am not used to have this much luck.
[There isn't that much Dust, mostly because normally only hunters carry it, but Lien, that's another story, let's say that we can survive for at least one month with what we stole]
"Perfect…" I say while stretching "We have a big way ahead of us so I will sleep a little, please warn me if anything approaches us okay?" I ask yawning and taking one big comfy looking coat out of my body while laying down next to Nora and putting it upon her (because contrary to her I possessed Thermal Resistance making it impossible for me to catch a cold).
[Good night Master]
"Night…" I say blacking out immediately after putting my head on the ground.
AU: Please don't forget to review. And by the way i am in dire need of a beta reader so if anyone want to i would apreciate that.
