Damn, I Awakened With A Horror System!-Chapter 338: Epic Ticket and The Opening of the Independent World (1).

Not hearing any reply from the system, Leo couldn't help but scratch his head, feeling quite embarrassed as he immediately shifted his attention toward the skill ticket (epic) within his grasp.

It could be said that, even without pondering over it, Leo already knew what kind of epic skill he would create. A skill that he longed for, for quite a long time.

"There's no need to think further; the only thing that I lack is offensive skill! However, the problem is, what kind of offensive skill would I create?"

Feeling quite excited, Leo hurriedly gazed at his character panel, scrolling down toward the skill section before staring at the couple of offensive skills he had.

Other than the Qi bullets that had long reached the rarity of Rare +2, the "Extreme Hell Flame" that was inclined to destruction, and the shadow spear that he had learned from upgrading his species in the past, Leo didn't have any epic offensive skills under his name — a shocking revelation considering his strength that easily surpasses his peers.

Although it was something to be proud of, his lack of offensive skill easily pointed out his weakness. If he was unlucky enough to meet an individual who could take advantage of his weaknesses, Leo was sure that he would suffer greatly, to the point that it might cost him his dear life.

"Hehe~ However, if that time really arrived, I would immediately flee. With my various skills, not to mention the peak of the core formation realm, even an early stage of the Nascent Soul realm wouldn't be able to catch me!

"My strength might not lie in combat, but I'm quite sure that my fleeing skill was unrivaled."

With eyes filled with pride, seemingly not caring whether his enemy would deem him a coward or not, Leo unfolded a smile on his face, gripping the item within his grasp before using it based on the system description.

Ding!

[ Do you want to use the Skill Ticket (Epic)?

(Accept/Declined). ]

"Accept!"

Churn-

In an instant, upon agreeing, the purple skill ticket within Leo's grasp suddenly burst forth with bright light, akin to a colorful aurora that hurriedly drilled within his mind, quickly plunging his consciousness into endless enlightenment.

Promptly, countless insights that were novel to him filled his mind as some of his problems regarding cultivation technique and skills became exceedingly clear to him, giving him an idea of how to maximize their usage.

However, unfortunately, knowing that the energy that the skill ticket contained was limited, only enough to create one skill, Leo immediately put the distractions behind his mind — quickly focusing as he followed the blueprint he had in his mind.

Sizzle~

In the inevitable cycle of time, 8 hours passed by in a flash.

Within the town, still filled with indescribable rules that subconsciously affected the spirits of mortals within, the figure of Sebastian, still wearing the familiar bronze monocle in his right eye, could be seen unhurriedly walking toward the dilapidated building in the distance.

Behind him, the figures of Rosa, Jake, and Roland could be seen following at the normal pace.

"It's almost time, yet Leo was still not showing up. What kind of mystery was he doing?" Speaking in annoyance, Jake, holding the familiar wooden bow, looked toward the dilapidated building in the far distance... Or to be exact, toward Leo's shop with impatience.

"I heard that he built a potion shop; he might be busy creating potions. However, the thing that makes me surprised is that he decided to build his shop in this dilapidated place."

"What potions? I heard he just hired a beautiful maiden; he might be busy with her."

"Eh, no wonder he always looks pale. He was probably spending his vitality on someone else."

Hearing the conversation of the men beside her, Rosa, with vines coiling around her body, couldn't help but snort coldly, shaking her head as dissatisfaction appeared on her face.

"Men's...'

...

Creakkk~

Soon, upon arriving in front of Leo's shop, the group immediately noticed the depressing aura it was emitting.

A thing that they would never expect in an establishment that was selling potions.

Noticeably, all of the windows of the shop were tightly locked, followed by the sight of the dark curtains that were fluttering eerily beyond the closed glass window... not even allowing sunlight to enter inside.

Moreover, a chilling aura could be felt oozing from the thin gaps within the door — continuously emitting toward the outside, causing the atmosphere within the entrance of the shop to be more chilling to one's senses.

Other than that, they also spotted countless dead bugs scattered around the shop, giving them an extra sensation of unease... As if this place hadn't been visited by humans for a long period of time.

It could be said that, if not for the name of the shop and the obscure sign on the side of the wooden door that tells them that the shop was currently open, they might believe that they went to the wrong building.

"Is this really a shop? It looks like more of a morgue to me.' They thought in unison.

Creakk~

Finally unable to contain his urge and curiosity, Roland stepped forward, taking a light breath before pushing the thick wooden door — putting force to his thick limbs as the door began to slip forward, creating a creaking sound that echoed through their souls.

Boom!

Soon, light poured inside the closed establishment, lightly unfolding the churning fog that was hovering within the atmosphere... completely covering the sight of the ceiling.

Following that, the sight of moving silhouettes from the beyond of the mist entered their vision — roaming the stained tiles unhindered as they created a mechanical sound.

"This."

Surprisingly, even after using their divine senses, the group was unable to discern the true figures of the beings behind the mist, as if some mysterious force was messing with their divine senses, giving them a sensation that they had entered a different world.

"Hello, guest. What can I do for you?"

As they were staring in front of them with uncertainty, hesitating whether to continue forward or not, a sudden polite voice entered their ears, originating from beside them, making them jump in fright.
