Chapter 16: First Amber Extraction!
'I didn't think a few random words from my mouth would indeed shock him,' Yone couldn't help but ridicule the naive guard.
He never figured he was a spy!
All he said was some random bulls!t after he heard his last words in hopes that he could briefly make him think about his words deeply. Yet, to his surprise, the guard really turned out to be a spy.
'Well, it doesn't matter anyway," Yone said as he looked at the bloody body with a hole taking the spot of his heart,' Even if that didn't work, another opportunity to make him be dazed for a second or so would have presented itself sooner or later.'
'Speaking of which, this Black Rose organization is really cruel and cunning, no wonder they are called behemoths in the Elinar Kingdom.' Yone thought as he wiped the blood off his hands.
He really disliked doing things barehanded but since the situation forced him into it, he had no choice but to use that old assassin technique he was taught long ago.
He swiftly controlled his body and blood to revert the state of his hand and nails after they turned into claws as sharp as knives, the veins on the back of his palm swiftly returned back to normal like nothing ever happened.
'Sigh, who would have thought that a day would come when I'll be forced to use this body technique again,'
Even though his body technique looked overpowered and he could one-shot a guard with ease, the reality was different.
The technique took a huge burden on his body that a mortal especially a kid of his age would find nigh-impossible to execute with mediocre training.
If not for the fact that he used this technique countless times before to protect his life in dire situations hence he was able to execute it with ease, he was confident that he would have been dead on the ground right now.
That wasn't the only downside to this body technique.
Yone estimated that if he didn't take this guard's attention and attack him by surprise, his claws would never be able to penetrate his body if he used his qi or whatever the energy of this world was called.
In conclusion, it was a last resort attack at your lowest whenever your enemy isn't on high alert and drops his guard.
He then frowned as he scratched his chin,' I wonder how long it would take someone to check on this guard? Or will they even check on him in the first place?'
Yone knew there was a great possibility that all this matter would go unnoticed.
He speculated that if everything went according to the main scenario, he would die and the guard would return to his job as if nothing happened.
If he could think of any situation where the village head or his parents figured out what happened here, it would depend on the guard's position in the village. If the guard was close to the village head, then most likely everything would be found out in a day or so.
He didn't dwell on this matter long as he soon dispersed those pointless thoughts out of his head.
No matter what happens in the future, he cannot keep thinking about it.
Yone liked to deal with things whenever they knocked on his door if he had no control over such matters, which was a state of mind and way of thinking he learned the hard way during his years as a lone amber master despised by the world and even called a demon hunted by countless justice forces.
In the next moment, he looked through his Attribute Panel in the System which he hadn't checked in a long while.
Host: Yone Danci.

Inventory Items: None.
Missions Available: Extract an amber out of your first corpse.
Before Yone could even think about his first target to accomplish the mission that he sought, someone presented himself in front of him.
He suddenly felt thankful for his parents and especially Daniel for being someone who didn't abandon his morals, or else he wouldn't be standing here at this moment.
'Well, anyway, time to see how this works,' He squatted down and looked at the body with interest, he was looking forward to this.
A gentle wind blew refreshing his face half-soaked with sweat, he felt quite good about this sense of freedom.
He honestly still didn't know how to go about this, but he knew who to ask.
Without further ado, he thought.
'System, extract an amber out of this corpse,'
The moment he said these words, his eyes darkened. It was as if hundreds of millions of black lightning were flashing through his pupils. With his pupils looking like a devil's, he gazed at the corpse with amusement.
He could faintly feel the change in his eyes but didn't dwell much on it since he knew that it was caused by the system.
He couldn't help but feel great joy burning in him as he felt an indescribable sense of power and control that he hadn't felt since he reincarnated.
He felt powerful!
And even though he knew that feeling was temporary, he liked it and wanted to enjoy it a bit more.
Everyone who would see Yone's eyes at this very moment would be frightened beyond measure.
The demons born without feelings would look like cute children in the face of this scene.
Yone subconsciously felt a signal from the system prompting him to move his hand.
In the next second, his hand was placed on the dead guard's eyebrows.
The moment he touched his skin, his palm passed right through his skull and to his Sea of Consciousness, and a jet-black brilliance bloomed inside him like an avenue of disaster.
In the next moment, the darkness flashed, and a terrifying force sucked a ball inside it as if a bottle sucking in water. The amber he extracted just now disappeared in an instant.
Yone couldn't help but praise with his eyes closed in relish.
He could tell that the amber he extracted was devoured by him when he took it out of the guard's sea of consciousness. He momentarliy closed his eyes and enjoyed the feeling of fullness that came with it.
At the same time, a bunch of System Prompts sounded in his mind.
