The sound of dry leaves getting crunched wasn't coming from the vicinity. Instead, it sounded from very far away.
Delilah seed like she hadn't heard it. It's not like she could. Her senses weren't as sharp as Roy's. She hadn't awakened using the awakening platform, and she didn't have a system that could boost her stats with a click. Her basic stats were pitiful compared to his.
anwhile, Roy was able to hear it as his hearing was as sharp as a grandmaster's. With every increase in a person's basic stats, their five senses would sharpen. For example, an aura master's eyes can see further and clearer than a weapon master's. They can do things that weapon masters can never hope to do. Their ears can catch a barely audible sound erging from miles away, and their nose can pick up barely discernable scents in the vicinity.
The stats of aura masters averaged around 150-200 points, which was almost double that of an average weapon master.
As all of Roy's basic stats were hovering above the 300-point mark and one was at 350 points, his five senses were sharper than aura masters and could be compared to so grandmasters.
He easily picked up the sound that was coming from miles away and discerned the direction it was coming from just by hearing it a few more tis.
"Wait."
After suddenly stopping Shadowless and Delilah, he turned toward the source of the noises.
They were separated by a considerable distance, yet, as if he could see through everything that stood between them, he caught sight of the silhouettes of a lot of beasts at the edge of his vision.
The more he focused, the more the obstacles between them beca transparent and see-through in his eyes, and the clearer the beasts beca.
If soone asked him what was going on, he wouldn't know how to answer.
Just a few days ago, his eyes weren't strong enough to see through things. It's only after gaining the sixth eye skill that his pair of eyes beca so unbelievably mystical.
However, as far as he could rember, it was said that the sixth eye skill was useful at rendering low-level illusions useless. There was no ntion of it granting X-ray vision to its user. But Roy was certain that his X-ray vision had sothing to do with it as he gained the ability to see through things after the sixth eye skill ca into his possession.
The sixth eye skill was clearly stronger than described. It could only an that the information provided by the system barely scratched the surface.
'Because of the sixth eye skill, I can not only easily dispel illusions and see far clearer than before in the dark but also see through an unlimited number of things to look at what I am focusing on.'
'The prerequisite to activate the X-ray vision is to focus,' Roy noted.
『Ding! Your mastery of the Sixth Eye Skill has increased significantly』
『The Sixth Eye Skill had advanced to Level 2』
『New perks have been unlocked』
『You are immune to interdiate-level illusions and have gained a certain amount of immunity against high-level illusions』
The system's chanical voice sounded in his mind.
Roy's eyes widened as he felt surprised.
He wasn't expecting this at all.
He had only used the sixth eye skill a few tis and determined that it was more useful than what the system made it seem.
As a result, it leveled up.
'It's honestly the easiest skill to level up so far,' thought Roy.
What he didn't know was that the surprises he was to receive hadn't ended.
They were just starting!
『It's detected that the Sixth Eye Skill has reacted with your draconian blood and mutated your eyes, granting you X-ray vision』
『The X-ray vision has been registered in the system's database』
『Because of the Sixth Eye skill reaching level 2, the host's X-ray vision has been strengthened』
'So this is what's going on.'
After going through the notifications, Roy realized sothing. Skills act differently depending on the bloodline of a person. If an ordinary individual had the sixth eye skill, at most, they would have immunity against illusions. However, one such as him, with dragon blood coursing through his veins, gained more perks from the sixth eye skill compared to an ordinary individual.
It should be noted that his draconian bloodline was too thin previously. That's why it failed to mutate the skills he has gained.
After going through the trials of the ancestral land and purifying his bloodline, his draconian bloodline had beco strong.
It could now affect the skills he had gained, making them better and overwhelming!
The system hadn't explained it. It was very likely that it didn't have such information in its database.
Roy, anwhile, just found out about it.
'Our Baldwin clan is too special. In this generation, soone born with both gates is considered pure-blooded, but the truth is, that's the most basic quality of a dragonkin.
'After undergoing baptism in the ancestral land and purifying the bloodline, the advanced qualities of a dragonkin are unlocked. I am the best example of it.'
'I, with my improved draconian bloodline, can be considered a cheat-like existence. Then exactly how strong is the older generation?' Roy wondered.
Delilah wondered why he had suddenly stopped them, although there was no danger in sight. She asked, "What's wrong?"
"We have been targeted by a pack of Fire-clawed Laughing Hyenas.' There was a considerable distance between them, but as he could see them clearly, Roy succeeded in casting his perception skill on them. Instantly, with a chanical ring, knowledge about the beasts appeared in his mind. It was exceptionally clear as if it was always there. He shared it with the others, "There are 50 of them. Forty-seven are magical beasts below level 10. Of the remaining three, two are at levels 13 and 14, and the last is at the peak of level 15. He is the one leading the group. Considering their speed, they will catch up to us in three minutes. That is, of course, if we stay immobile."
