Chapter 17 - New Arm!



"Tough Arm and Smooth Arm? Wha—!" Under the limbs category, Jem read in surprise the two items in there. He was astonished. The names of the items were unprecedentedly normal. Though, his mind was taken over by excitement. He was very optimistic that it could replace his lost arm.

Honestly, missing an arm is very tough for him, like a bird who had lost its counterpart wing.

Jem read further and noticed their prices. The Tough Arm cost 150 Trade Points, and the Smooth Arm was 130 Trade Points. 

"Quite expensive!" Jem blurted.

Somehow, he could still afford to buy the Smooth Arm. But choosing among the two was already out of the question. He only had a choice, the Smooth Arm!

"Hm, anyway, I never remembered dismantling arms. I understand the fangs, but the arms? On top of that, there are two of them. Why arms and not legs?" Many questions baffled him.

While Jem was asking himself, the voice of the Trader had resounded once again.

<About that, Host.>

<The bones are from the Little Swine and the flesh and skin are from the Furious Black Snake.>

"Hm, what does it mean?"

<Together, they were assembled into arms.>

"What, the guardian system was even capable of doing it?" Honestly, this was hard to believe. Jem could not help but gawk at the Trader\'s words.

<Yes, Host.>

<In regards to your last question, the system is always taking priority on what you have lost.>

"Hm, I see. The Guardian System prioritized my arm. Anyhow, will I be able to regrow my arm if I trade my points to it?" Although he already understood what the Trader said, he only wanted to make sure, out of excitement.

<It certainly will.>

Jem\'s chest was loudly beating. Promoting his Exo points was an important thing, but. Having to be able to use two arms once again was more important in his current situation.

Looking at the two arms, they have an unusual design. Although Trader said they were altered as per the Morf( Modification of Reformed Fragment) name suggested, the color and luster of Furious Black Snake\'s skin were still there. They looked slightly better, though.

He didn\'t ponder longer as his finger already confirmed his choice.

After confirming on trading his points to the Smooth Arm, the wound on his cut glowed. Then magical lights were gathering on it.

The process of generating the arm was worth watching, like thousands of fireflies were gathering around him and lit up the surroundings.

Jem was staring at it in awe, unblinking eyes. He was watching as the lights gradually animated the form of an arm.

The next moment, the countless particles of light disappeared all at once, allowing darkness to rule the place.

However, at this moment, Jem\'s attention was on his new arm. His chest was unsettled. To find out if it was legit or not, he tried clenching the hand.

As per his intention, the hand folded without a problem, following his motive.

It seems as though it was his original arm.

Tears ran down his face as he clenched both of his hands with all his might.

"Yeeee… Yes!" Jem pumped both his fists in the air. It was the emotion of great relief swelled from within, bursting out open.

He was already very bothered that he lost some of his teeth. And more on, when he lost an arm.

"Finally, finally, thanks, System. Thanks, Trader…" said Jem as he wiped the tears on his eyes.

He had no idea whether the Guardian System was the Trader itself.

Regardless, when Jem was about to try waving his new arm, he was distracted by the sudden notification.

Ding!

[Congratulations, New Ability Acquired: Stretching Arm]

A sudden notification surprised him. It said \'acquired\' and not available in the ability shop like the Intimidation Ability.

After the notification, a series of information ran through his mind, like when he learned the Intimidation Ability.

He learned it on the spot. He figured out that the skill was only available to his new arm, the left arm.

He summoned Ex-energy on his new arm and reached the stone that was on the ground about ten steps away from him.

His hand extended like rubber and successfully grabbed the stone without difficulty.

"Co-cool…" Jem muttered as he was staring at his new arm like staring at a new toy.

But Jem surmised the reason for it was the rubber-like skin and flesh of the Furious Black Snake.

The only oddity with his new arm was, it was jet black. He also had an idea about the Tough Arm. Perhaps it would also give him a skill that enables him to harden his arm.

After gaining a new arm, Jem\'s confidence grew slightly. But still, he had to be extra careful as the place was too dangerous. He controlled his emotions and was advancing step by step with all his attention focused on any unusual sounds coming around him.

Whenever he found an ideal area to rest, he would take a detour. Then he reviews his Guardian System.

He needed to mind the information in it.

After using the Stretching Arm Ability, 20 points of his Ex-energy were consumed.

Since he had 60 points in total a while ago, he was left with 40 points after testing the Stretching Arm Ability. But, his occasional rest regenerated his Ex-energy, little by little.

Meanwhile, his Ex-energy was left with 55 points. 

Jem stood up once again. He needed to continue the search for the way out. He could not linger long in this place.

Miss Slyva once discussed it in their class. The outside of the city\'s barrier was littered with poisonous miasma. Normal humans could not even step outside as they would die in just a matter of seconds after inhaling it.

On the other hand, an Ex-Human could survive about a month in a place littered with miasma before they began to feel unwell.

So Jem Hansen had to be mindful of it. The outside of the barrier was known as the Desolate Region. In this era, there was only a portion of habitable land compared to the wasteland.

Grr!

While Jem was trudging the muddy path, he went to a sudden stop and readied himself while his ears focused on the noise that his ears caught just now. It was coming ahead of him.
