Chapter 3

Shin and Schnee left the room immediately and made use of their explosive strength to leapt to their destination. They used roofs and walls as footholds, but if they kicked at full power they would surely be destroyed.

It would be troublesome if they caused needless destruction, so they used 【Flying Shadow】 to create footholds in midair, using roofs and walls only when the skill’s usage limit did not allow them to create any more footholds. The plan was to reach the holy area using 【Flying Shadow】 as much as possible.

“Hm?”

As they were moving, Shin felt an indescribable feeling when using the skill. In this world, when he used a skill he could understand how it worked through his senses. In case of sword skills, how the sword had to be swung; in case of magic, what effect and power it would have. In Shin’s case, he could also check the skill details via the menu.

Shin was now having a bizarre feeling about the Movement-type skill he was using, 【Flying Shadow】. The skill in question allowed the user to create up to 2 platforms in midair to use as a foothold, but he couldn’t help but feel that it was possible to create more.

“Could it be…?”

Shin felt a sort of irritation towards the two foothold limit: not expecting anything to really happen, he tried activating the skill. He jumped off a roof and used it once, then one more time in mid-air.

Then, when he would usually use a wall or roof again to reset the counter, he tried making a third foothold. Normally, nothing would happen and he would end up kicking empty air. What Shin’s feet felt, however, was the same hard surface that appeared when the skill was properly activated.

Guided by his senses, Shin activated the skill a fourth, fifth, sixth time, continuing to leap through the air.

“Shin!?”

Schnee’s surprised reaction reached his ears. She needed to use actual surfaces to proceed, so, by blitzing through the air, Shin achieved a pace much higher than hers.

Shin landed on a roof and waited for her, then – without a word- picked up the perplexed Schnee up in his arms in the so-called “princess carry”.

“Ehm, Shin? What are you…”

“Looks like I can use 【Flying Shadow】 without limits now. I don’t know why it happened, but I’ll make the most of it.”

It was so sudden that it was normal to be confused, but Shin somehow felt that it was a good thing.

“I’m going to jump at full power. Hold on tight!”

“Yes!”

Schnee wrapped her arms around Shin’s neck, while he also strengthened his hold. Then their preparations were complete.

Shin lightly kicked the roof to jump up, then put more power in his legs. An invisible platform formed under his feet. This platform, strong enough to withstand his kicking power, catapulted them in the air. Now that he didn’t have to worry about damaging any property, Shin could take the shortest route to the holy area turned dungeon.

“(Tiera sent a reply. Can you read it, Schnee?)”

The wind pressure would make it difficult to speak, so Shin talked via Mind Chat.
