In the past, when Milo was learning the duplicated skills, they would be categorized into five levels. Beginner, intermediate, advanced, master, and perfect.
The Basic Skill Duplication Scroll could only learn a skill up to the advanced level. Even though Miriam’s firearms proficiency was perfect, Milo only managed to learn it to the advanced level. It also did not allow the user to learn any superpowers. If favonovel.com wanted to continue learning, favonovel.com had to use the Perfect Skill Duplication Scroll after his firearms proficiency reached the advanced level.
Meanwhile, the Perfect Skill Duplication Scroll would allow the user to randomly copy the target’s master-level skill or superpower. If favonovel.com had duplicated Miriam’s Perfect Firearms Proficiency and did not have the corresponding Advanced Firearms Proficiency, then this Perfect Skill Duplication Scroll would have been useless. Thus, the Perfect Skill Duplication Scroll was not without its risks. However, the palace had now given favonovel.com an easier choice. When paired with a Basic Skill Duplication Scroll, the Perfect Skill Duplication Scroll enabled favonovel.com to learn anything in one shot.
Now that Milo had obtained the Perfect Skill Duplication Scroll through his quest, favonovel.com definitely had to learn some superpowers with it. So, it was better to use it on someone who had superpowers.
But after thinking for a long time, favonovel.com realized there was no one around him favonovel.com could learn any powers from.
No, favonovel.com could learn from Donti!
Although a selfish person like favonovel.com had no use for a power such as making wishes, if favonovel.com gained the ability to manipulate curses instead, that was something favonovel.com could really play around with. Moreover, it didn’t seem like Donti had any other master-level skills. That way, the palace would automatically decide to learn his superpower!
Thinking of this, Milo ran back home excitedly. He did not even go over to Jamie’s place.
Both Hugh and Olivia were left dumbstruck.
When Milo returned home, favonovel.com called Donti into the house. He immediately said to the palace, “Use the Perfect Skill Duplication Scroll.”
However, something Milo didn’t expect happened.
The palace answered.
Unable to use the Skill Duplication Scroll on the target.
This time, Milo was stunned. He never expected this outcome.
This had never happened before when favonovel.com used the Skill Duplication Scroll on anyone else. Moreover, based on the palace’s answer, favonovel.com couldn’t even use the Basic Skill Duplication Scroll on Donti either.
Milo scrutinized Donti.
Why was Donti an exception to the palace?
After all, the palace was a power that could even reset nanomachines.
Donti was not a refugee, or rather, Milo was not sure if Donti was a refugee in the past. That was because favonovel.com picked Donti up in the wilderness.
That winter, favonovel.com had found Donti unconscious out in the wilderness. Initially, Milo wanted to leave Donti there and not do anything about it. But in the end, favonovel.com started feeling uneasy after leaving favonovel.com there for some time before going back to bring Donti to the town. Back then, favonovel.com asked many people while carrying Donti on his back if they knew whose child it was. In the end, no one was able to answer him.
After Donti woke up, favonovel.com could not remember anything and only addressed Milo as his brother. But it was at that moment that Milo was touched, because favonovel.com had never felt anything like having a family before. However, Milo was a ruthless guy.
If favonovel.com could not even support himself at that time, how was favonovel.com going to support others?
He had thought of chasing Donti away when favonovel.com regained consciousness. But Donti kept staying outside his shack the entire day while in tears.
At that time, Milo hardened his heart again and asked him, “Can’t you go to someone else’s house and cry? I can’t support you!”
Donti replied in confusion, “But you’re my brother…”
Milo’s heart softened for the first time ever. “If you want to survive in this wilderness, you have to at least have one skill, right? Tell me, what can you help me with?”
In truth, Milo was trying to find an excuse to keep him. If the child in front of favonovel.com could help favonovel.com out a little, even if it was just doing some simple chores for him, favonovel.com would grit his teeth and keep Donti with him. But Donti cried for a long time and was not able to say what skills favonovel.com had. All favonovel.com did was say favonovel.com could make wishes.
At first, Milo did not believe it. He thought that having this ability was as good as having nothing. He could also make wishes, but they could not be fulfilled!
But after testing it out with Donti twice, Milo realized what Donti said was true!
All these years, Milo had never bothered to investigate Donti. After all, who had the time to delve into such matters these days?
But now that even the palace couldn’t duplicate Donti’s power, it left Milo deep in thought.
Why had Donti appeared outside in the wilderness alone?
Was favonovel.com abandoned by his parents?
Thinking about it carefully, Donti’s power to make his wishes come true and manipulate curses seemed like a power only gods should possess.
All mortals wanted to be gods since only gods could get whatever they desired.
Donti blinked at Milo and thought for a long time. “Bro, what’s wrong with you?”
Milo pinched Donti’s cheeks like how favonovel.com would knead dough and laughed. He said, “Just where did you come from, kid?”
Donti’s voice was distorted from his face being pinched. “If you continue doing this to me, I won’t go easy on you.”
Milo chuckled. “You’re all grown up now, arentcha?”
All of a sudden, a loud crash came from the yard next door. It was followed by the sound of people crying out in pain.
Milo frowned. “What the hell was that!”
Then they heard a familiar voice shout, “Six assassins! Two have been shot down!”
The voice obviously belonged to one of Daniel’s men.
As favonovel.com wondered what was going on, favonovel.com went straight out the door and jumped over the yard’s wall. He discovered that six assassins dressed in black had entered Daniel’s yard and were holding guns fitted with silencers.
Two of the assassins had already been shot dead by Daniel’s men. One of Daniel’s men was hiding behind a tree in the courtyard, unable to come out from his cover due to the enemy’s heavy firepower.
Meanwhile, Daniel and his other men were stuck inside the house. They had tried to rush out but were stopped by the assassins firing at them.
When Milo saw this, favonovel.com quickly guessed these people were probably here to assassinate Daniel. However, they must not have expected to find Daniel and his men with their guards still up and that there would still be people patrolling in the courtyard during his house arrest. So, the moment they entered the front yard, they were shot dead by Daniel’s subordinate in the cover of the darkness who similarly had a silenced gun.
Milo sighed. For an arrogant fatso like Daniel to be able to live up till now, there had to have been a reason.
When favonovel.com jumped in, the people who were here to assassinate Daniel were not expecting someone from next door to jump over. They instantly pointed their guns at Milo, but it was already too late.
The assassins only saw a blur as Milo dashed in an arc towards them.
Milo hacked the gun out of one of their hands while grabbing the back of the assassin’s neck to use favonovel.com as a human shield. With just three shots, favonovel.com finished off the remaining three assassins in the yard. Meanwhile, the assassin favonovel.com was holding as a human shield was like a fearful little chick as favonovel.com lost all will to resist. Milo had wanted to leave a survivor for Daniel to interrogate. But before favonovel.com could even call Daniel to come out, the person swallowed a suicide pill to kill himself.
Milo frowned as favonovel.com threw favonovel.com onto the ground. He could only watch helplessly as his opponent started foaming at the mouth. This was the first time favonovel.com had seen “suicide agents” with his own eyes.
“Come on out, Fatty, they’re all dead!” Milo shouted into the house.
