Demonic Pornstar System novel Chapter 119

Chapter 119: Immense Luck!

Kaiden was still in the middle of hugging the overly excited and happy Lux when a notification sounded in his head.

[Ding!]

[Main Mission: ’Moon Valkyrie’s Troubles’ completed!]

[Rewards]

1: Random Skill Card

2: Upgrade Point

With this, he was back to 4 Upgrade Points, which was the amount he had before spending one on his [First-Person Camera], upgrading it to [Harem Vision].

Kaiden had a bit of an issue: he was an unapologetic hoarder. He wanted to hoard the points until he got a skill he was sure needed to be upgraded.

Thus, it was time to open the Random Skill Card.

The same tense gacha-style opening ceremony started in his mind; however, by the end, the trumpets were singing victoriously as if he was an emperor returning from a great war that’d just been won. Even cheering sounds were added... ’This Heavenly Demon dude has a taste for theatrics, that’s for sure...’ Kaiden snickered inwardly, but he couldn’t help but feel great anticipation.

It seemed that he—at long last—high-rolled the skill opening.

The card stopped spinning. It featured an art of a man who had his lips closed and an X was overlaid his mouth.

[The Heavenly Demon once said, "Screw you and screw your stupid laws, Universe! I’m the man who is destined to stand above all, you have no hope of containing me!" after which he spent 5,000 years developing a technique that allowed him to ignore one of the universe’s most fundamental laws: to cast spells, one must formulate them into clear words, or to the best of their current ability. The Successor inherited the fruits of the Heavenly Demon’s arduous labor.]

[???-tier skill, ’Silent Casting’ unlocked!]

[Silent Casting: Cast spells without uttering a single word.]

"Heavenly Demon, I fucking love you..." Kaiden muttered out loud, eliciting a gasp from Lux. "Bad words can’t be said in Aria’s presence, or she will scold you!"

"Kaiden gets a pass..." Aria giggled, receiving a "not fair!" shout of protest in response.

Kaiden was shocked. He already knew this Heavenly Demon guy was an incredibly strong person, but to think he could circumvent such a universal law. Also, 5,000 years? His benefactor’s scale of existence was beyond his comprehension. He spent 200 times Kaiden’s entire lifespan’s worth of time just to solve this single issue...?

Furthermore... ’This Universe thing again, huh? The Heavenly Demon hated being restricted by its imposed rules, so he rebelled against the universe itself. That might’ve been what led to his downfall.’ These were the conclusions he could draw from his currently available information, but it was mostly just his headcanon, nothing factual.

"Thank you, Kaiden. Truly," Julia spoke up all of a sudden. She’d been watching the ongoings from her hospital bed with keen eyes. It was very easy for her to understand that not only was the selfie he showed her back when they met telling the truth but that he was also a good big brother figure, evidenced by Lux’s refusal to let go of him as if she were a little monkey baby clinging to her mother. She thought it would not be an exaggeration on her part to exclaim that he was the savior of her family.

But saving was not all he did.
