Lucas's eyes widened as he read the description of the shadow control skill card, this is the skill that Sia had given him and it turned out to be truly a gem.
This skill card once belonged to Kurt, now is his.
Not only that this skill card is of B rank! G rank skill card, which is the lowest of all ranks, costs 30 million C.
The prices can go up and down by the type of skill you buy. F rank skill card cos with 45 million C.
So by going that, The B rank skill card that Lucas is holding cos to around 250 million C, plus this skill card cos with shadow affinity which is the rarest affinity in the world, So this skill card price must be over 300 million C.
A true jackpot!
Lucas couldn't believe his luck. The [Shadow Control] skill card he received from Sia was a treasure beyond asure. The implications of possessing a rare B-rank skill with shadow affinity opened up a world of possibilities.
With an imnse amount of excitent, Lucas closed his eyes and absorbed [Shadow Control] Skill.
As Lucas absorbed the [Shadow Control] skill, he felt a surge of newfound energy coursing through his veins. The intricate patterns of shadow magic intertwined with his essence, creating a harmonious connection between him and the shadows.
Skill disappeared in the air as Lucas absorbed the Skill.
Opening his eyes, Lucas looked down at his feet, where his shadow was, When he looked down Lucas found out that two black eyes were staring at him through his shadow.
He shivered as Lucas spun but Lucas was able to hide and wave toward his shadow "Hey there buddy." But Lucas's shadow just stared at him.
Feeling embarrassed at how a passenger on the train gave him a weird glance, Lucas closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep.
'I will check on him later at ho.'

[Ironhold region, Harthaven district— Arrival]
Exiting the train station, I took out my phone and loaded the GPS app.
I had no clue where to go from this point on…
Yes, I know that I was at ho when I reincarnated into Lucas's body but at that ti I had my AI bike, it was because of that bike I had no problem getting ho.
But this is different, I don't have an AI bike on .
Sigh
I let out a small sigh and glanced back at my shadow, The shadow was still staring back at with his black eyes.
'Now, this getting creepy.'
Ignoring the shadow's creepy gaze I turned my attention to my phone GPS.
"This way"
Following the GPS, turning right off the station, I followed the red dot on the map and headed towards where my parent's house was located.
Night had already fallen and the crescent moon high in the sky was gradually being covered by dark, drifting clouds.
The lamps around the crosswalk I was walking brightly lit the areas, and despite it being late, people walking their dogs or having a jog were seen everywhere.
After walking for a further twenty minutes, I finally found my house.
I could see that the lights were still on. It showed that everyone was still awake.
It was clear that they were still awake waiting for
"fuuu…alright"
I reached for the doorbell of the house.
-Ding! Dong!
As soon as I pressed the doorbell, on the other side of the door, the sound of rushed footsteps rushing for the door was instantly picked up by my ears.
-Clank!
Opening the door, brilliantly smiling, a beautiful woman with golden hair and deep-forest green eyes greeted at the door.
"Welco ho Lucas!"
A small smile ca to my face
"I'm back Mom."
"Look at how much you've grown!"
Squealing in delight from the mont her eyes landed on , Seraphina DarkHeart, mother, lunged at as soon as the door opened.
Without having enough ti to avoid her, I fell into her embrace
"Ohhh…"
After a couple of seconds of struggling, I gave up.
"Let get a better look at you"
After a solid minute, releasing from her hug, and squishing my cheeks with both hands my mother looked at with a large smile on her face.
"Look at how much more handso you've beco! I'm sure every girl in the academy is swooning over your looks"
"…"
"I doubt that, Mom," I replied, trying to hide my embarrassnt. Seraphina's enthusiasm was endearing, though, and I couldn't help but smile.
Seraphina ushered inside, and the familiar scent of ho embraced . The warmth and cosiness of the living room welcod back, accompanied by the aroma of a ho-cooked al.
Turning left of the corridor, I was soon inside the living room.
As I stepped into the living room, my eyes imdiately landed on a certain individual.
Sitting on the sofa looking through so papers, Caelum DarkHeart my father, glanced in my direction.
Nodding in my direction, he said
"Welco back"
"Thanks, Dad," I replied, returning his nod. Caelum DarkHeart, a respected hero in his own right, had a stern deanour that belied his caring nature.
I took a seat in the living room, surrounded by the familiar comforts of ho. My family gathered around, sharing stories of their day, and I couldn't help but feel a sense of warmth and belonging.
After a while, my mother, Seraphina, said:
Lucas, we are going to guild Food is in the fridge eat that and don't wake up your sister, she is sleeping."
I gave her a confused look and asked:
"In this late night both of you are going to guild, Is there so problem?"
Seraphina exchanged a glance with Caelum before sighing. "There's been an increase in cri-related incidents lately. Unusual activities, and disturbances in the city. The guild has requested the assistance of experienced mbers to investigate and address the situation."
Caelum added, "It seems like the villains are becoming more volatile. We've been assigned to look into it and ensure the safety of the citizens."
Concern flickered across my face. "Is it dangerous? Do you need backup?"
Seraphina placed a reassuring hand on my shoulder. "Don't worry, Lucas. We'll be cautious, and the guild has so of the best mages and heroes working together. Besides, we must protect the city."
Caelum nodded, "You take care of things here and rember if anything unusual happens, contact the guild imdiately."
After a quick al from the fridge, I bid farewell to my parents as they prepared to depart. The door closed behind them, leaving alone in the living room.
The night embraced the house with its quietude, and the only sound was the distant hum of the city. As I wandered through the house, I noticed my sister's room and decided to check on her.
Slowly pushing the door open, I peeked inside. The soft glow of a night lamp illuminated the room, revealing my sister, Lilya, peacefully sleeping. Her dreams seed undisturbed by the shadows looming over the city.
Closing the door gently, I go back to my room.
