She started deciphering the information as quickly as she could and found some features of the skill editor that were similar to how Saver sorts the saved progress .
The cracks , for example , had carried any progress of degradation which not only included aging , but also the deterioration of quality in the products she buys , food , mana dispersion and etc .
That was the aspect of adding a skill's parts to another , while the dissection of a skill was similar to how Saver selectively targets the desired Saved aspect , like the boiling of the water instead of boiled water .
She continues to consume the information and by the time she was done , she got a general idea of how the skill editor was made , but without the hands to make the edit , she wasn't confident in messing around with skills .
' But I did get something else ' she takes control of her gift , something which Saver had been doing . Saver shakes worried about her , but Dennis assured them and looked at a leaf and targeted their Photosynthesis .
She looks at the familiar green light , but this sudden acquisition of power worries her ' It's weird enough that I was able to acquire this kind of power easily , but it feels awkward '
She has seen enough mass-produced novels about gaining power randomly that she became suspicious of the source . A system , class , power with the usual rank SSS , S , X or any letter that holds special meaning has a source .
It was fine in the novels that the sources do not reveal themselves . But this was real life and all she could think of was the higher beings that Willow mentioned .
Dennis recalls the knowledge that Saver gathered from Saving a copy of the world's context from each individual they made contact with to buy skills ' This god does have their show of strength , like the blessing ceremony , which acts as a coming of age , in which the child gains a skill '
Dennis imagines that this skill is likely like a gift and thinks about Saver ' But if I think about Saver , they are just a plunder type gift , but with extra steps . ' Saver starts asking with their eye shaking like it could cry .
"Me no need ?" ' Of course not , I still need you to handle the auto-Save and auto-Loads . You are still supporting me and you have been Saving a lot of things that I don't have to handle . I'm just taking some of your burden by handling the Save and Load by myself '
Dennis comforted them ' I wouldn't want to abandon you , you are a very big part of the family , that was just me and mom . So don't go thinking you're not needed just because I learned how to Save and Load without having to pass it through you . Plus , eventually you'll grow and who knows , you might want to go outside on your own like you did in Card world '
Suddenly , an elf teleported atop her and dropped onto Dennis " Dennis ! " she said and Dennis got up " Uhm " the elf was troubled because she thought Dennis could've reacted quickly .
' It's alright , Saver we were having a moment ' " Hey Hazel , I was a bit out of the zone to react fast " " But didn't sister say you have a slowpoke effect which gets canceled when you need it to "
" You're not exactly someone I need to cancel my slowpoke effect on and do you think you can get off me ? The grass smells good , but this position is uncomfortable "
" Ah , sorry " Hazel helped Dennis get up " How long are you planning to stay ? " " It doesn't matter how long since we can just teleport " " RIGHT ? Isn't it such a convenient skill ? " Hazel said , flexing her teleportation circle that Dennis Loaded the knowledge into her .
" It is , but you have to put some form of protection on or you get caught in a rune cage , so try not to teleport often . Better to just run since it can give you exercise "
" But didn't you say it was more time-saving to exercise all at once ? " Dennis looked at Hazel and asked " Were you not listening to the news ? " Hazel tries to think , but only feels dumber because she doesn't know what Dennis was thinking " I don't think so "
Dennis sighed " Well , I'm just here to relax a bit . It's good for my body to surrender to rest " " But you're using slowpoke on yourself " " Trust me , it's better this way . " Dennis didn't have the patience to hear someone speak too slowly .
" Then do you want to come eat with us ? We have a guest room just for you " Hazel said and Dennis was slowly losing interest " I'm also planning to world travel and invite your mom "
Dennis sighed , knowing her mother was likely going to force her to go " Alright , I'll stay " Dennis continued listening to courses instead while exercising around the garden with Hazel .
When Dinner came , her mother made her wear a dress " This is a very beautiful dress " it was a red gown that hid her figure and was loose enough for it to be folded so that it could stand and hide Dennis's figure .
" Ohhh , you look so beautiful " Hazel said and Miss Debrah took another gown out of her storage ring " This one is for you , Willow " it was a beautiful green gown with short sleeves to expose an elf's fair skin , but unlike Dennis's loose-fitting and folded clothes , this one hugged her figure to showcase her slender build .
" Mom , why is sister's dress different from Dennis's ? " Hazel asked her mother and the mother looked at Dennis's muscles and guessed " Is it because of her muscles ? " Miss Debrah nods " But how are you going to cover your arms ? " she asked her daughter .
Dennis picks up her jacket and the nanomachines wrapped around her acting as jewelry " You have those little golems !? I heard they were very expensive " Hazel said and Dennis commented .
" I got a scholarship for showcasing information processing ability that rivals the brain world natives . Since our world is so bent on catching up , they were willing to support my scholarship and give me some cuts for the research . "
" But didn't you get your gift when you were six or so ? " Miss Debrah asked " Yeah , I guess they can achieve my speed in ten years or so " " Ten ? " " Anyways , I'm planning to cover my arms with these " Dennis said hoping that topic isn't talked about much .
The nanomachine shines and continues giving her quick access to her educational resources and biodata analysis " What do you think mom ? " " If I didn't know there were many different kinds of people in the other worlds , I would say this does not look good . But at least it makes you look like you have delicate and smooth skin instead of really hard and defined muscles . "
" It's almost as if , Dennis is the bodyguard and I am the damsel who will be in distress without her " Willow joked , acting like a princess flipping a fan to cover her mouth " Enough joking around , you have like the experience of an army soldier who fought a hundred wars "
" Not wars , fights " Willow corrected " I wonder if Hazel is going to become like her " the mothers start having a conversation about their daughters becoming more like sons in the traditional sense .
While the father asked " Willow , make sure you don't get some suspicious noble alright ? " " Okay dad , it's not like there isn't someone more attractive beside me " Willow pointed out .
" And it's not like your daughter needs protecting as my daughter's bodyguard " Miss Debrah said " Even though she looks more like the princess with a dress like that "
Hazel said " How about coming with me for work , it's a very peaceful place if you don't get involved with my bodyguard duties " Willow asked Hazel , but Dennis ruined the prospect by saying .
" There is a possibility of you getting captured by the enemy to be used as a bargaining chip in which Willow is forced to trade me for you " Dennis commented " Do you have to say it like that ? " Willow asked .
She can already imagine her father opposing the idea and the girls all took a bath in a massive hot spring while the mothers were in another speaking to each other about their daughters .
" I saw a job request asking for help in coding a website in the offers the government was giving . A lot of people from the brain world were taking it " WIllow said and Dennis asked .
" Are you trying to hint at something ? " " Yeah , I was wondering if they can handle making use of your gift the way you do . " Dennis thinks about her use of Slowpoke .
" It highly depends if they have the same attitude and motivation as I am . I've grown used to the world moving faster than I can handle the speed of information entering my mind . But just because I have that , it doesn't mean it's good for you . "
Hazel wanted to know , so she moved a bit closer while nearly dozing off " It's easy to take in information that you are more familiar with or can easily connect to your prior knowledge . It takes a while for me to develop a proper structure of knowledge that can easily take in the information I get "
" So , there is some model you are following ? " " I had a lot of time to learn and build that structure . I'm sure the government can handle that on their own . They might also want to consult with a lot of experts on this matter because if they want to manage a person's use of my gift they will need a lot of data crunchers "
' I can imagine those uncs and aunts to send their children into these programs and invest a lot of money so that they can reach my level . After all , if Mom had told them about my scholarship in Brain World , they would be tempted to take that path '
Dennis relaxes in the hot spring , thinking about saving the Hotsprings' great comfort so she can have it in her bath , but she could just stay at one of the hotsprings managed by her mom's massive circle of friends and return with teleportation .
...
Dennis got into her bed while wondering about the skills she had just learned . She takes some cards from Savings and edits them with the skill editor while also thinking about the summoners .
' It might take a while for me to read the rest of these skills with the Saved uses , but I feel like it is worth it ' Dennis checks the few skills that could be considered Gifts by the standards .
' Even so , understanding all of them takes time , but it will be worth it ' Dennis goes to sleep and enters a dream . She woke up from the dream the moment she entered and felt drowsy .
' Goddamn it , I haven't gotten into a dream for so long ' Dennis checked Savings to see Saver resting very peacefully and thought of how much they likely were around to keep Dennis safe .
' I guess I really should go to the summoner's world for that familiar ' Dennis goes to sleep and enters the dream . She wasn't lucid like during her Loaded Dream time use .
She walked through buildings , assuming the dream's identity as a village girl and started killing . She feels a form of ecstasy as she sees skill cards being taken from the corpses .
She kills one after another and she eventually gains lucidity after murdering a small boy and acquiring the skill editor ' What ? ' she looked around at the boy and looked at the puddle of blood and all the confusion was dispelled .
' Oh , so this is a dream ' the dream shattered and she found herself in a massive space , different yet somewhat familiar to Savings " Grids and skills cards . This must be Plunder Girl's skill slot space " Dennis looks at the grids , which change border colours as it goes further from her .
' This is impressive , I wouldn't have been able to see this before . But more importantly , why did I get here ? ' Dennis thought and felt something creep extremely slowly , but getting closer .
She turned and saw a hand moving extremely slowly " Oh so that's it " she backed away and dodged the hand while looking at the skill card it came from .
" Is this trying to steal from me " she then saw some hand sprouting from the skill card . She backed away and saw the hand that stretched to her in the process of dissolving ' Maybe it's because I'm not in Savings that the world is moving slowly '
Dennis checks her access to Savings and Loads her mother's gift to understand the skill , since she has no way out and to take control of it as she did with the skill editor .
" Uh oh " she saw the girl that the dream had made her roleplay . The girl was praying in front of her "" CCoolloorreedd rraaiinn ,, pplleeaassee ggrraanntt mmee aa ggoodd ggiifftt ""
" damn you talk so slow " Dennis wanted to remove slowpoke , but since she Loaded her Mom's all-seeing eye gift , she doesn't know what kind of knowledge will come from here especially one from a ceremony that receives blessings from a god .
Her view moved and entered into the girl as the church-like atmosphere was transformed into a cold and structured one-color grid void that wasn't as vast as the present .
She also heard a voice that was highly incomprehensible and beyond her understanding . She instinctively tries to understand attracting a translator skill to assist her " Let this be an experiment , can this broken grid grow or not ? It will be useful to know whether or not the people will stay the same today or tomorrow "
She attempts to look away , but the sight of the vision looked straight at the statue , seeing something beyond her comprehension while being encased in colorful grids .
Her body sweats and her data analysis tool found her brain starting to overheat . Dennis Loads time on herself to gain time to understand , but it only prolongs the pain of knowledge , so she Saves the overheating she was experiencing to preserve her body .
Dennis made a regret before continuing to understand the vision . She also heard a slow voice coming down saying "" WWiitthh tthhaatt tthhee cceerreemmoonnyy eennddss "" the being leaves as the priest concluded the ceremony of the girl and everything became a more manageable dream .
Dennis gasped , feeling like she could wake up , but the vision her mother's gift provided continued . This time into a more familiar process as she watches every use of the plunder skill .
But each use , she was feeling a sense of growth as the broken grids continue to grow and create more grids . Since she was impatient , she slowed herself and experienced the rest of the dream before finding herself in front of the plunder skill card , which has now remained inactive and under her control .
' Clearly the gift has grown ' she looks at the plunder skill and takes control of it ' You were pretty easy to understand . But rather than plundering , wouldn't looting make more sense ? But since the skill specifically targets cards , I guess Looting is a bit difficult . Moreover , the conditions are pretty basic '
The plunder skill , takes any skill from anyone lower than you . The gap can be widened through death or the state of the user and target ' So this can include sleep too . But I don't like this stiff look ' Dennis thought .
' Since , you were part of an experiment about broken grids , maybe it suits you better to adapt that look ' as she thought of that , the plunder skill card folded into light and several hands stretched out as the grids closed into the familiar form that the gift was found in the vision .
A few cards were absorbed , like the appraisal skill cards , which caused different sizes of eyes to open in the light corresponding to the appraisal skill levels and the broken grids surrounded the light , boxing it in a cube frame with the edges stretching out slightly .
Dennis looked at the box and the eyes opened , turning to her " Woah " this felt like the time Saver manifested in the real world . Then she woke up with the box in front of her .
" Huh , looks like you are alive " instead of sticking to her as flesh , the box had stood in front of her while connected to her palm with grids , filled with one high-level skill card each .
Dennis thought of what to do , but since her only reference was her first meeting with Saver , she just thought of a name " Maybe Deks would work " the eys of Deks jumped around " I don't get what you mean " a skill card lit up and Dennis received some of Deks's expressions .
" I see , you are happy " Dennis wonders what she should do about this . Dennis sees Deks transform their inside by spitting out a plunder skill card , leaving the eyes , which remained visible solely as eyes , but absorbed another skill card , changing its essence and giving it a new look .
" Oh wow , so your main deal isn't the plunder skill but rather the grid . I should've guessed that it was about it when that thing or maybe your parent ? Is that your parent ? " Deks communicated confusion and spat out the absorbed skill card into the other grids .
' I guess they are only keeping appraisal because that would be the best kind of skill to sense the world . But if that's the case , then the grids are their main body while the skills are just things they use for themselves for function . Kinda like Saver with the Saved uses of Mom's gift '
Dennis felt something shake in Savings . On her other palm , Saver got off and started shaking . They used notes saying "what the box thing ?" " Saver , this is Deks , they kinda are like you in the sense that my thoughts gave them ... Life ? "
"Sibling ?" ' I guess you can think of it that way ' Deks seems to understand the position they are in and Dennis sensed Hazel coming and brought the two back inside her . She goes outside and greets Hazel " Good morning "
Dennis , Willow and Hazel went to a town for a walk " Is there a difference in your world compared to the tower world ? " Dennis asked Willow and Hazel grew confused .
" Yes , mainly we have a lot of faith in here . But we elves are a bit different . Instead of worshipping pantheons , we worship the world itself , along with a few others who are very connected to nature , like the dwarves , for example "
" And what about people coming in ? " " Not really great , if you were to compare our world with the others , it would be like calling it a backwater world that sends workforce out to bring money in . What's more , it's hard for us to accommodate most people who don't match us as your would does "
Dennis recalls a lot of willing workforce who immigrated to her world from one of the aunts who manages immigration " So I guess , there is very little work for the immigration office here in terms of bringing people in "
" There is a lot , because other worlds have potentially invasive technologies , plants , animals , virus " Willow starts listing several and Dennis interrupted " In other words , anything that could take down a world's identity is not allowed "
" Yep , they are very restrictive of those who can't control their magic , reliant on their technologies " " I get your point , but why do they allow you ? " " Because they know elves are very sterile in terms of body and health . What's more , I am overseeing your world travel as an agent "
Dennis thought that a lot of things were starting to make sense now that she learned about Willow's other profession " I was wondering why you haven't gotten caught by some sweatshop to work 24/7 because of your immigration status "
" Is that supposed to mean something ? " Dennis looked at Hazel and the elves understood " While we're at the topic of immigration , there are a lot of gods here who actually hold real power . Each of them has their own domains , but there is one beloved child who has all their blessings "
" Is that supposed to mean anything ? " Dennis asked " Not really , but because of their blessings , a lot of gift holders are calling it the gift of gods . Which is likely a way to establish themselves , but the designation didn't go through because of this world's offices opposing the desecration of their faith . "
Dennis looks at the adventurer's guild " This looks like the classic setting of a novel " " wanna register ? " Hazel asked " No , it would be trouble trying to raise my rank here . What's more , it's a bit useless " " then why not sell some skill cards ? " Willow asked .
" I mean , I could , but it's going to be crazy expensive since I'll be giving out really good ones only . " Dennis calls Deks for access and grids manifested on her hand , revealing the merchandise " Woah , these are great skills . " Hazel said and Dennis retrieved it .
" Better have some sort of screening so that we give these to trusted people " Dennis said " I can handle that , think you can give me one ? " Hazel asked , remembering a skill's description .
" No , that would be against our duties as immigration agents . So how about you call all the royalty so we can talk to them face to face later evening with Dennis's offer . " Willow said .
Hazel's eyes gleamed and saluted " Aiyai sister " Hazel went her way while Willow asked " Shall we go to school ? " after some lessons . They go down to eat lunch " Surprisingly , you are very restrictive about what you eat here " " I feel sorry for the lunch lady if I were to eat everything , so I just get enough for three meals "
Dennis sets her trays down while Willow checks on the dinner preparation " Looks like Hazel is doing great with the preparations . She has been teleporting to different parts of the world to acquire ingredients "
" Like what ? " Willow proceeds to mention a few hard-to-kill monsters " What about the cooks ? A few exchange students from the gourmet world . Hazel is also counting on you to provide the poison resistance " " You're lucky that skill is easy to copy "
Willow was confused about what Dennis just said because she knew there were definitely some skills beyond her Gift's ability to copy " Did your gift evolve or something ? "
" Maybe " ' it was mostly Deks doing the work with a copy skill . But it is surprising how I can use skills that require bodily functions . What is more surprising is how easy Saver and Deks optimize ways to create more skill cards '
Dennis recalls using a few inside Savings , like claw strike ' It has to do with invisible claws , but if Deks can compensate for missing body parts for a skill , I might be able to give some of these skill cards out as a quirky replacement limb '
" You're in deep thoughts again " " If it makes it easier for you , I'll just remove Slowpoke and go in deep thoughts without disturbing the flow " " No , it's fine . It gives me time to keep up and take a breather " Willow said ' She is strangely considerate '
' Will I be fine though ? ' Deks responded to Dennis's worry , telling Dennis that her body's ability to metabolise was great because she was eating a lot of food and asked if they could copy the skill ' You really are respectful to even ask for that '
Deks communicated that they were just mimicking Saver ' Now that I think about it , the rules of Saver's ability were restrained within respect to a few rules like consent for people targeting . I specifically told them that maintaining a respectable relationship was important . '
Dennis was glad that Deks was asking permission for her skills , but seeing how the copy skill was trying to spit out a high-level plant magic skill . She can guess that this respect has yet to extend to other people yet . But there was no real need to scold them since they're not taking from Willow .
It's more like Deks was simply learning from Willow without her permission or participation " Can I see what kind of people there will be ? " " You want a list ? "
" That and I want to know what food there is " " Quite a lot actually and do you think you can do me a favour and eat a lot ? The young chefs are looking to earn praise and if royalty sees you gorging all that food , they'll crave it as much as you do "
Dennis stopped eating and asked " Do I do that ? " Willow smiled and said " Yep , you make even stale bread appetising " " Then I'll have to offer pictures for advertisement " Saver and Deks got to work taking the memories and taking pictures through it ' I was joking but you could prepare it as a photo album hobby '
" But aren't the immigrant chefs hurting the culture ? " Dennis asked " not essentially , a lot of progressive immigrant agents did a lot of convincing by showcasing possible famines . I'm pretty sure that there are countries that even make food out of scales just to get by "
" I get your point , a lot of cultures have vulnerable food sources . A famine hits them and they will have no idea how to feed themselves " Dennis added .
" You'll need a dress . Care to leave that to the elves ? " " Why not " " Okay , I'll tell Hazel to handle it . " " Will the beloved child be there ? " " No , why do you ask ? " " Just want to know "
