Chapter 5: I want a pretty girl
The Healing Hero's skills were also quite outrageous.
Usually, a starter profession that possesses a single Legendary Skill could be called a Legendary template.
But this Hero panel came with three Legendary Skills, two Fantasy Grade Skills!
Since the creation of the game Mystic Continent, Lin Da had never seen such an outrageous template.
With it, clearing the top floor of the World Tree and defeating the Demon King were no longer 'impossible.'
The first Legendary Skill of the Healing Hero was Balance Conservation: the strength value would always equal the Magic Points.
This allowed Lin Da to easily cultivate both physical and magical skills, shedding the Healer's disadvantage of lacking combat capability.
Although there were traditional professions like the Paladin who could fight and defend, the Paladin's so-called 'fighting' wasn't even half as good as the lousiest damage-dealing class.
They could fight, but not much.
Then came the second Legendary Skill, Poison at Heart.
An extra branch appeared in the profession's Skill Tree, called "Poisonous Healing."
A Legendary-grade Skill Tree was presumably not weak at all.
Healing one monster to death with poison was entirely possible.
The third skill was the 'Eye of Truth.'
It displayed damage numbers when fighting monsters.
This skill was relatively weaker and was mainly used to observe the reality of friend and foe.
The remaining two Fantasy Grade Skills belonged to system capabilities.
Killing monsters gave Mystical Points, which could then be used to enhance oneself.
The experience bar also appeared, which perfectly matched the baseline setting of the game 'Mystic Continent': killing monsters to grow stronger.
If everything matched the game without error, this meant that Lin Da didn't have a cultivation bottleneck; he would eventually reach the maximum level of 100.
Lin Da felt relieved; the pressure to become a hero wasn't so great anymore.
Once he reached level 100, he, a former professional player, would not fear any Demon King.
"Hey, mortal, how do you like this boon from the deity? Aren't you grateful and ready to kiss my boots?"
Kafni's haughty voice came through.
Lin Da snapped back to his senses.
The disdainful tone made his eyebrows twitch.
If these abilities were a bountiful act of goodwill from Kafni, he would have to respectfully show some gratitude.
But Kafni was giving them to make him fight the Demon King.
The two of them should have a partnership.
He was responsible for exerting force, and Kafni was to provide the equipment.
This golden-haired Deity, however, always looked down on him, speaking like a haughty Female Lady, which made one's teeth itch with irritation.
Lin Da kept his annoyance hidden deep inside; firstly, he had to claim all the rewards.
"The third aid you provide me, am I allowed to wish for any skill I want?"
"Of course, after all, I am a deity!"
"Time is precious, make up your mind quickly. I am waiting to move on to the next world!"
Kafni's tone contained half pride and half disdain for a bumpkin like Lin Da.
Lin Da remained composed and started thinking.
The skills he already had were completely sufficient.
Another Legendary Skill would merely change the difficulty from easy to very easy.
What he needed was some unconventional support.
Lin Da looked intently at Kafni, who was floating in the air, elegantly popping a crystal grape into his mouth:
"I want you to transform into a pretty roasted chicken girl to serve as my Summoned Beast."
"Summoned Beast, no problem! Let me see, there are Holy Dragon hatchlings, Amethyst Behemoth hatchlings... wait, what did you just say?"
The grape in Kafni's hand dropped to the ground.
Instead of anger, a hint of panic appeared on Kafni's face upon hearing Lin Da's highly offensive request.
Lin Da smiled, showing his bright white teeth:
"I want you to turn into a big, white panda girl, tender skinned and fiercely beautiful, to serve as a summoned beast for this hero,"
Lin Da said it, but he didn't actually hold out much hope for success.
He was just joking to express his dissatisfaction, hoping that Kafni would tone down that superior deity attitude.
After all, which deity would be foolish enough to truly turn into a girl and become his summoned beast?
What if he were some pervert who wanted the deity to help satisfy his physical needs?
However, Lin Da was not from the Divine Realm and was not very clear about some rules.
Kafni was far from as composed as he had imagined.
As a deity guiding the hero's transformation, Kafni couldn't reject the hero's wish; according to the rules of the Divine Realm, he must do his utmost to satisfy the hero, assist the hero, inspire the hero, to save another world.
At that moment,
Bear, girl, summoned beast... These three keywords were captured by the Divine Realm's rules, and they heard Lin Da's words of confirmation.
An overwhelming power that Kafni couldn't resist enveloped him.
Suddenly, Kafni's face changed.
His expression went from confused to shocked, then to collapsing and despair, all in just few breaths.
"Hero, you scoundrel!"
Kafni was about to cry.
"Are you cursing at me?"
Lin Da touched his head, puzzled.
Seeing the other's pale face, he realized what had happened, albeit belatedly.
Kafni, could it be that he couldn't refuse his request?
Lin Da was stunned.
Then... what was he pretending all this time?
If he had just honestly handled his hero employment business and had been a bit nicer, Lin Da wouldn't have thought about joking around, right?
It turns out he's just a clerk processing hero business.
How could there be such a lousy deity in this world?
"Can I take back what I said earlier? It was just a joke; let's choose another skill,"
Lin Da coughed, saying awkwardly.
But Kafni laughed.
It was the kind of laugh that had tears streaming down his face.
Lin Da read the answer from his tragic expression.
The matter was settled, he could only maximize the benefits now.
Lin Da sighed and looked up at the sky.
Looking at Kafni being enveloped in golden light and undergoing transformation, he spoke rapidly:
"Please grant me a goddess with a big panda, long legs, a peach-shaped butt, a bit fuller, and a face like an older sister...! Oh, can it be pinchable? If so, I want it to be white..."
Kafni's body twisted in the golden light, being kneaded into various shapes by the giant hand of the rules.
Sharp cries of agony continued to sound out.
"Waaaaah! Stop it, stop right now, you damn hero!"
"How can you manipulate a deity's body like this?! I'm going to kill you aaaaah!"
Poof—
The giant panda appeared.
Snap—
His pride and joy vanished without a trace.
Kafni cried.
Everything was just as Lin Da had expected.
The woman in the golden light had a perfect, firm-bodied panda, a waist slender enough to be grasped with one hand, long smooth legs, and a perky, elastic panda butt.
And a head of soft, sunshine-bright golden hair.
