Chapter 196 Chapter 196 – Abilities

Cryon left Dark Dream in shock, pain, and horror.

And for the next two days, he felt like he was going through hell.

He was no longer bleeding or anything, but he felt like all his organs were inflamed.

Eating, drinking, breathing, and sleeping was painful.

He would have immediately run to the hospital if Trevor hadn't said that there was nothing they could do.

Cryon just needed to hold out, and he would recover with time.

Over the next couple of days, his family took care of him.

Luckily, the love of his family made things easier.

But on the second day, an incident occurred.

Cryon was recovering in bed when his sister accidentally pressed too hard on his stomach, which made him cry out in pain.

At the same time, Cryon's sister also cried out in pain as she retreated in panic, constantly looking at her hand in horror.

After a quick argument between the two, they finally realized what had just happened.

When Cryon's sister had touched him, she had felt like her hand was submerged in acid.

However, that was the only time it had happened.

All the other times, things had been fine.

The two of them experimented a bit, and they finally found out what was going on.

When Cryon cried or screamed, his body became "dangerous".

Anyone who touched him while he was screaming would feel like they had touched acid.

When the two days of relaxation were over, Cryon talked to his team leader, Trevor, about his ability.

A bit later, Nick arrived and asked Cryon to use his ability on him, which he did.

Cryon felt quite embarrassed shouting this loudly in front of others, but he did so anyway.

After a while, Nick confirmed that it felt identical to the pain he had been in when they had captured the Puppy.

This meant that, most likely, Cryon was tearing Zephyx out of whoever was touching him, which made it feel like his body consisted of acid to others.

They experimented a bit more, and they found an additional aspect.

The Zephyx that was torn out from the other person was absorbed by Cryon.

Cryon was using Zephyx to use his ability, but he also recovered Zephyx by using it.

This meant that Cryon could keep damaging his opponent as long as they touched and as long as his vocal cords didn't give out.

The only bad part was that the damage accumulated very slowly.

It would probably take Cryon almost ten seconds of constant physical contact and screaming to severely injure someone at the same level as him.

In the end, they noted the ability down and told Cryon to keep it a secret.

Which Specter gave what ability was sensitive information.

Eventually, Cryon was told his schedule, and he sighed.

He had to work with the Puppy for eight hours a day.

He just hoped that the Puppy wasn't too angry at him.

Meanwhile, Nick finished the document he had created about the Specters and their abilities.

He now knew all the abilities his Specters gave to new Extractors.

The Dreamer gave someone the ability to make them sleepy and read their dreams.

The Bleeding Lady gave someone the ability to put an additional cutting effect on their attacks and weapons.

The Dung Heap gave someone the ability to release poisonous gas in a big area.

The Screaming Coffin gave no abilities.

The Puppy gave someone the ability to tear Zephyx out of anyone who touched them, but one had to scream to activate it.

The Lover had an interesting but also straightforward ability.

It made others horny.

That was it.

There were a couple of uses for it.

It could be used to subtly make someone believe that they were attracted to the person with the ability. After all, if someone constantly got horny while looking at the same person, they would think that they were attracted to them.

This would be a good ability for spying on others and gaining information.

However, it could also be used in a fight.

When one was horny, one's blood was gathered in one's nether regions, which meant that there was less for the brain. Additionally, the enemy would be quite confused.

In the case of men, it could even act as a small hindrance to movement, based on the size of their thing.

It would also embarrass them, making them more likely to make mistakes born out of emotion.

However, if the one with the ability lost, their death might become quite a bit worse since the enemy might be motivated to relieve their lust.

Lastly, the Fog gave one the ability to launch clouds of fog, which they could see through.

Of course, only the person with the ability could see through the fog.

Everyone else would be blinded by it.

This had no direct offensive power, but the ability made it easier to escape and confuse the enemy.

Nick was especially interested in the ability.

If he had someone with him who could launch fog, Nick could fight with much more power since his ability would be active for longer.

Sadly, even though Nick's ability had been augmented by the Fog, he still couldn't see through the fog that had been launched by someone who had the ability.

Nick would have to see how things developed in the future.

There were quite a couple of ability combinations that seemed useful.

During the next couple of days, the three new Extractors, Cryon, Kerry, and Taren, got familiar with their new jobs and settled down.

All three of them belonged to Trevor's team.

Excluding Nick, Dark Dream had ten Extractors.

Jenny led the advanced team, which consisted of Jonathan and the three people from Ghosty's Lab: Constanze, Marvila, and Larry.

Trevor led the Newbie team, consisting of Cryon, Kerry, and Taren.

Kiara was also part of Trevor's team since she was working with the Lover and since Kerry had the Lover's ability.

And with that, Dark Dream could finally work with all of their Specters.
