Age of Adventure - Chapter 366 DISADVANTAGE OF KILLING SKILL

It made him lose his conscience and lose his control over his own body. It is like losing the control for his own mind.

For a strategist to lose his mind, that is something that should be allowed to happen. Aero likes fighting. Well, that is not accurate enough. He likes fighting because he knows he could win in a fight.

And while he likes it that did not means he is manic about it.

There is this contradiction to this. Since he could win, that is why he likes fighting. One could even say it is not fighting that he likes.

It is winning.

But he likes scheming from the back even more.

At times when he had to take into the field, it is only when he really needed the battle to be won.

He is more proficient in defeating the enemy before they even reach the battlefield.

Whether that be true deception, or some dirty tricks from behind, Aero had always stress the importance of winning with the least effort.

Conserve one strength while forcing the enemy to waste theirs.

As such, even before the war had been declared, he would already plant his spies, sow doubts and create traps for his enemies.

He would bribe the disgruntled officers of the opposite factions, persuade them with righteousness, lure them with benefits, threaten them with harm before the war even started.

When the war starts, his army would be in the advantageous position.

Of course, this tactic could only be used by Aero after the Empire stabilizes. In the past, he had to modify his plan in real time because their forces are small and not as big.

But as it become the superpower nation in the East, Aero had also changed his tactic accordingly.

This battle needed to be won and it needed to showcase his power to remind the people in the dark who is Aero of the East and what is the consequences of going against him?

This is his way of gaining back the trust of the world.

As such, he himself need to go into battle and he did not only need to win, he needs to win with him as the central force of this victory.

Only then his grand debut to the world would be completed.

Killing Intent skill work perfectly in such a setting. But Aero had also recognized its danger after his experience of using it

It is good that this time he managed to recover himself in time.

The Heaven Sword also seems to clash with the Killing Intent and could be regarded as a suppression tool which is good for him

But what if one day, he did not suppress the killing intent and let it run amuck. It would not be good for his reputation.

Even after he had returned to his current calmness, he could still remember that feeling of negative emotion that made his heart feel heavy.

The Disguise skill is very useful to him during his time in Veranis. He did not rank it up before even though he had skill point is because he wanted to conserve skill points.

Who would have thought that today, after just one war he would have this many skill points?

It is true war is very tragic.

But it is also true that for some people war is very profitable. If not, why would those adventurers join the war even though there is a possibility of them getting killed?

Because there is high benefit in fighting a war and winning it. It is just sad that the Veranis forces is the one in the losing side today

Of course, unlike Aero their reason for gaining strength might be different from Aero.

Since Aero had already had position, power and wealth his aspiration and desire is of course different from some people who wanted the skill points to improve themselves so that they could live more easily in this world.

The world that Aero lives and the world that normal adventurers live is very different

He then thinks of the Disguise skill and the status window popped out. He looks at it saw it is in Adept rank

He uses 12 point to raise Disguise to Superior rank. And then he checks the status window.

DISGUISE [IV] Superior RANK

Able to disguise to be a monster and people that you have encountered or defeated. You now can even disguise yourself into lifeless things and transform back and forth easily.

There is no longer a restriction on things that you wanted to disguise at.

You no longer need to defeat the monster to disguise yourself to it. You just need to possess focus and concentration, thinking of the overall shape and appearance of the thing, monster, or people that you want to disguise yourselves as.

Lizhu Gerard had used this skill many times in his life to infiltrate the enemy camp and enemy stronghold to gain information. He had also uses it to fool his enemies and he created many alter egos that goes on to create a legend by themselves without anyone ever knowing that all of those alter egos is Lizhu Gerard himself.

-Need to undergo a destiny fated quest to gain the opportunity to reach the Master rank

u003eu003eu003eu003eu003eu003eu003eu003eu003eu003eu003eu003e

It is another legacy skill, he thought to himself.

Most of his skill is related to Lizhu Gerard skill in the past and it seems that they all could sprout of new talents. Of course Disguise did not sprout out any new talents of skill but Aero had this intuition that if he pushed to master level, there might be a change in this skill

He himself did not know how to explain this feeling.

He shakes his head and then check the next skill which is the taunt skill. This skill is not very useful against adventurers but it is very effective on the native of this world

He looks at his skill points. His skill point right now is 183 skill points. His taunt skill is at Beginner rank so he used 14 skill points to raise it up to Superior rank

TAUNT [IV] SUPERIOR RANK

This skill helps you to attract monster to attack you. It could even affect people if the taunt is close to their complex and the weakness in their hearts. If uses correctly could even induce manic rage on other people, thus rendering him incapable of thinking logical thoughts

Lizhu Gerard had used such skill to anger many people and confuse them. It is better used by people who could understand the human heart and how to manipulate it. It could even induce a person most negative emotions when used correctly. Be careful not to taunt divine beings with this skill since it could lead to negative consequences

-Need to undergo a destiny fated quest to gain the opportunity to reach the Master rank

u003eu003eu003eu003eu003eu003eu003eu003eu003e

Aero read the description and suffice to say he is very shocked at how the description about the skill had changed.

‘Could this even affect the adventurers?’ he thought to himself. As for the native of this world, Aero is pretty sure that this skill would work on them

Aero thought it would really add to his image as a powerful orator and statesman if he could taunt them and they die of anger.

Thinking of the many politicians in the court and the effect that would happen if he used such skill, fill his mind with some mischievous thought

He also saw a warning not to use it against divine being. It made him think that maybe in the past Lizhu Gerard had once taunt a divine being. That is the only reason there would be such a warning he thought.

He shakes his head, thinking of this matter

He then checks his other skill which is the Language skill. This is a legacy skill of Lizhu Gerard and Aero always had some expectation on this skill.

The ability is basically the ability for him to use complex systems of communication and learning other languages easily and without effort

But since most of the people in Vilajeri continent spoke the same language there is not that many use for this ability. But it is the other perks of this skill that made him appreciate it.

It is the fact that with this skill, he could understand complex symbols and divine meaning and the ability also enables him to speak with spirits and Divine Beast

As for spirits, he saw some of them during his trip in the Underworld. As for Divine Beast he had never met one.

With all of the skill he had there is many ways for him to seek quest later. It is his position as the Chancellor that always limits his movement in the Continent.

As one of the pillars of the Empire, any movement he mad would be closely watched not only by his enemies in the Western kingdoms but also the hidden enemies in the court.

If not for Curse of Styx and his ability to create the image of an invincible and unkillable warrior, he bet there would be an assassination attempt on his life every day.
