Is it Wrong to Copy Abilities in Apocalypse?

A god or a demon, whoever it was, getting kicked out must be a very harsh punishment for them, or at least that was the conclusion Alex had reached.

The demon Chalitanetra had probably descended down—which was not possible if one went by the system's rules—by putting something at stake.

But this is where one could see the loophole in the system's rules.

[- No god or demon can directly interfere with the humans.]

Alex now had upgraded the rule to something else, which would make much more sense.

[- No god or demon can directly attack the humans.]

This was what he thought now.

The demon, who couldn't attack humans with its original body, descended into Pratick's body—he couldn't guess how the demon did it, but he didn't force his brain to think too much about it—by putting its stay in the game at stake.

It must have had a fixed goal that it had to fulfill; if it couldn't, then it was probably supposed to be kicked out of the game—which is exactly what had happened.

This was all Alex could guess as he thought about the situation again.

Right now, he was back in the shelter she used for his stay during the time he was injured, and as for the injury that the demon put on him during its last struggle, they were already healed.

It was all thanks to the new ability he had gained by copying the demon's 'Second Heal' ability of demonic healing.

One would wonder why he only wanted the second heal; well, the answer wasn't that complicated.

The limited heal worked automatically, which meant, that even if he had a scratch—something he wouldn't even want to heal—the ability would use his mana to automatically heal it.

Maybe one day he would want his wound to stay green, yet the ability healed it within 30 seconds; it was just not something Alex wanted.

Anything that worked without his control over it was not a thing he would like.

Yes, there were some pros of the 'Limited Heal' as well, as it would be able to heal him even if he was unconscious due to severe pain or blood loss.

The cons, however, were graded higher in his eyes, so he just wanted the AI to copy the second heal, which it did.

This is what the AI had informed him, and as he saw the skill, he couldn't help but feel like it was better to have this ability, especially when it didn't have any restrictions.

[[Luminis Vitalis (Epic): An ability that lets the user heal their body—no matter what grade of injury it is—at the expense of their mana.

→ Corpreal Mend - It heals the flesh and bones, and can even regenerate limbs if an appropriate amount of mana is supplied.

→ Mana Heal - By the expanse of 5% of your mana, you can regenerate 10% of your mana, with a cooldown of 30 minutes.

→ Stamina Heal - Can recover stamina by expanding mana.

]]

This was the ability he got, and when he asked how the mana and stamina heal popped up without them being a part of the demonic healing, the AI replied without delay.

Its words made a contemplative frown make its way to his face as he twirled his dagger between his fingers.

'If that's the case, then doesn't that mean that you can create multiple healing abilities with just that?'

The AI, who knew what Alex was getting at, replied without a delay.

It could guess that Alex wanted it to create a new ability—one that was better than this one—but it knew that something like that was not possible, at least not until Alex faced an opponent with a much higher-ranked healing ability and made that opponent use that skill for the AI to copy it.

Alex didn't say anything after that, as he got the answer he wanted.

Right now, however, he stared at his remaining coins...

[Coins: 6126.]

His coin stock had increased as he cleared the demonic zone again.

Yes, the demonic zone with Gigglewraths within it.

Just like normal zones, the beast within the demonic zone seemed to respawn in a certain amount of time as well, so Alex went in again.

This time, however, he didn't even touch the Gigglewraths; he rushed into the deepest part of the zone as soon as he stepped into the zone.

His aim was the Wrathborn.

He wanted to kill that beast first, when it was still unaware of his existence, unlike last time, when it was tense from the constant disappearance of its subordinates, leaving the Wrathborn with its vigilance at an all-time high.

This time, Alex didn't face any problem as the first arrow he shot directly pieced the beast's head, taking it down in one go.

Only after that did Alex focus on the Gigglewraths, who were now left without a leader.

Everything was going well, and he was thinking of clearing more zones, but just then, he opened the chats...

The moment he did, his nose scrunched up, and his brows frowned.

He could see people looking for him, wanting to thank him and express their gratitude.

He could even see some girls asking him out and saying that they would let him have the best time of his life.

Heck, there was even a guy talking about how he had mastered the art of taking in deep, sending shivers of disgust down his spine.

He could just kill some humans as a warning, and let them know what would happen to those who tried to get close to him, but he decided to wait for a bit.

He didn't want to just mindlessly kill everyone, so he gave them some time to cool down, and now, when there were just (for him) three days left before the next scenario, he finally decided to go for some coins.

Who knows what kind of situation he would face in the next scenario?

The first scenario wasn't really hard for him—that was until the difficulty was raised.

So he needed to be prepared for the worst in this one as well.

He wanted to go out and collect some herbs to make some potions and keep them stocked.

For one last time, he opened the world chat, and the moment his eyes fell on the chat, a sharp light flashed past his eyes.

The chat was still as hectic as it was before, with people still trying to suck up to Alex and wanting to get close to him.

From the way people had hyped him up as a good guy, Alex could tell that many—who had never seen him before—would try to get friendly with him, but they didn't know how Alex was going to respond.

He wasn't a good guy after all.

And he was not a guy who liked making friends as well.
