How Am I Still Alive? Chapter 10

10: Chapter 6: Rock and Roll of Cats and Kittens 10: Chapter 6: Rock and Roll of Cats and Kittens “Runner? What kind of garbage path is that, a waste of a profession. As a worshiper of the Mother Goddess, you’re willing to get into such a profession.” “It doesn’t affect much. Many people do it part-time. I heard that, in the early stages, low-level professions don’t have much impact…” “Then suggest something to me, and remember, if you dare to cheat me, I’ll make you an up host, the kind who plays the piano in a naked apron.” As expected, that silenced the other party. Having really come into contact with the supernatural world, Lu Ping’an found himself spoiled for choice with so many “roads” that he didn’t know which one to choose. Choosing the wrong career could spell disaster, especially for a Secret Keeper. The choice of one’s main profession seemed to be extremely important. “The only unanimous decision is to choose the path that has the highest compatibility with one’s own ‘Talent Abilities’ as the main path for a promising future… But how can I know which path is most suited to my Life Bank?” That ‘wipeout’ file monitoring is still fresh in Lu Ping’an’s memory. He doesn’t plan on revealing all of his Abnormal Abilities to outsiders. To this day, he still hides his first ability, planning to let it “Awaken” naturally in due time. At this point, he naturally asked his ‘portable grandpa’. To his surprise, Chris’s answer was full of mockery and scorn… But the fact that they were having this conversation was meaningful in itself. Lu Ping’an felt that she was gradually accepting reality. In fact, even if Chris dared to speak now, Lu Ping’an might not listen. Since he didn’t know which was the best to choose, he decided to go with a decent choice. Runners aren’t strong when it comes to combat, but they have high survival rates and they can run fast. Many of their professional skills and career abilities are very practical, and many high-level Secret Keepers are part-timers in this profession because they won’t lose anything by doing so. From the limited data available, having a side profession, at least at the low-level, wouldn’t affect much. Before determining the main path, don’t take on more than 3 side professions, or you will regret it.” Suddenly, Chris added this on her own initiative. Despite Lu Ping’an’s efforts to remain calm, his lips twitched into a slight smile. He still didn’t believe her, but at least it was a good sign that she had taken the initiative to show goodwill, even if it wasn’t a complete surrender. He rarely refrained from taunting her, and even responded with a smile and a thank you note. It wouldn’t be good to always use the stick approach. On the other hand, Lu Ping’an resolved not to hold more than two side professions, and perhaps not to take on any more at all. Well, he still didn’t trust Chris, but there was no need for such a fragile lie. Since she said side professions are harmful in excess, it’s best not to take on any more. The limit of three might not be the exact number. “It would be great if you could point me in the right direction. I’ve seen in the information that you have the Beast Tamer, Healer, and Black Knight paths, right? Are they suitable for me? The Black Knight path doesn’t seem to be among the fifty-three common paths….” What Lu Ping’an really needs is not the ‘common sense’ of this world, but ‘experience talks’ from Chris, who is an expert. But no matter what Lu Ping’an said, there was no response from the other end. Lu Ping’an smiled and temporarily gave up. In fact, he wasn’t in a hurry. Just to make up for the ‘Runner’s’ needs, these fifteen days might not even be enough. “I’ve done all this for some extra points on the college entrance exam, haven’t I…” As he sat in the stands, watching the two Runners below working hard, he felt the same joy that a farmer would feel when looking at his crops. [Black-iron level Customer Lei Shuiyun, Credit Score 1.] [Black-iron level Customer Lei Huoren, Credit Score 7.] In addition to them, he had another customer named Xia Qin with a credit score of 13. At present, Lu Ping’an still doesn’t know exactly what purpose ‘Credit’ serves. Each use of his ability increases it by 1 to 2 points, but it’s likely also part of the cumulative effects of his abilities. Lu Ping’an speculated that since Rule System abilities are based on the user’s self-perception, perhaps when this credit level goes up, new functions will appear… Bank VIP, Heart’s Delight VIP, as an Eastern Country person, it’s probably already in his subconscious. Credit needs to be accumulated, skills and abilities also need to be accumulated, and even the number of customers needs to be accumulated. It’s obviously a growth type ability that needs time to sprout. Ironically, the thing I lack the most is time. Is this life’s way of mocking me…” Shaking his head, his half-year experience in the despair ward made him realize that looking too far ahead only brings negative emotions, without any benefit. “Observing is also a form of learning. Let’s see how they run.” As a 2-tier Assault Runner (Runner Path), Lei Huoren ran very fast. He was continually blinking in and out of sight as he ran, utilizing his shrinking steps with unparalleled joy. Lu Ping’an noticed that he wasn’t strictly abiding by the five steps per blink rule. Sometimes it was four steps, or even three! His sister was a lot more down-to-earth. Other than her endurance and speed which made him, a young boy, feel ashamed, she didn’t display anything supernatural. “From the looks of things, she’s also a zero-order Runner in training. But I might breakthrough faster…” In fact, not only did Lu Ping’an make a profit, but Lei Huoren and Lei Shuiyun also didn’t lose anything. On the contrary, they gained a lot. A point of life represents a day of living. An increase isn’t something that can be easily achieved. That represents the highest state and additional vitality. Often, a sudden stroke of genius could surpass the efforts of ten days of hard work. Lei Huoren, who was trying to master new career abilities, needed to be in top condition. Even without a Rule System ability, he could feel a surplus increase every day. The 10% dividends he gave Lu Ping’an? When his daily gains actually reached 300% of the original, and he was often getting extra flashes of inspiration, what did that 10% count for?
