Master Of None

Chapter 713: 713. Polishing

ʼSandwich stack- passive

The user has the skill to stack sandwiches in strange ways that seem to defy gravity. No matter what they add between the layers of bread, as long as it is thinly sliced food, it will stack. The user has the ability to keep the sandwich from falling over as if it was glued in place.ʼ

Walker just read the system and tried to keep himself from bursting out laughing. How would he explain that he received a sandwich based ability to his friends? How would he explain it to his mother? He couldnʼt think of any way for his mother to be able to accept that instead of baking skills her son had learned something as weird as the ability to stack sandwiches better.

After eventually shaking off his desire to laugh Walker pulled some of the rags from his inventory that he could use for cleaning. He had found that olive oil was perfect for shining and maintaining Midnightʼs scales.

He had helped her with shining and cleaning them a few times but always with the help of others or Midnight would do most of it herself since she was fairly skilled at cleaning herself.

However, Walker was getting in to the habit of spoiling Midnight and she had developed a love for others shining her scales for her. So when he laid down with her head in his lap, Walker just shook his head and began to get rid of the stubborn coal dust and ash. The dwarven high forge and city itself was covered in remnants of coal dust and ash.

This wasnʼt even including the dirt and dust that came with being underground. The only saving grace was that there were steam pipes that heated water pipes nearby to provide hot water for bathing.

While he worked he found that Midnight had started a familiar purring like sound. It was a mix of a purr a cat would make and a slowly peaceful growl. It caused Midnightsʼ wings to vibrate slightly making her even more adorable. The sound was soon becoming the background in the room over Gilʼs nearby snoring.

ʼThe skill polish has been taken from the maid system. The skill polish has been automatically learned due to user actions.

Polish- .5 mana cost

The user consumes a pitiful amount of mana to remove even the toughest tarnish marks from any surface. The mana will layer on to the polished surface for a short time to maintain the shine and luster. This skill can be used on many surfaces as long as they are smooth and safe to touch without injury to the user.ʼ

Walker nearly dropped the rag he was using to polish Midnightʼs scales. Not only was he going to have to start over and use this skill to make sure every part of her scales were the same perfect shine, but, he would be using mana constantly again. It may only have been a small amount of mana but Midnight was a growing dragon.

He knew that one day he would need to drink many mana potions t get all of her scales perfect.

He also had the sneaking suspicion that he would be making her even more spoiled. Midnight would never let up about him making her scales shine better than anyone else. It was a curse he was going to have to live with now. There was also the fact that he may be stuck with shining every smooth surface within the mansion by himself. The chores would only multiply if everyone found out about this skill.

He would need to swear Midnight to secrecy forever.

”So you are awake as well. Does Midnight want to look her best as we say goodbye today>” Su had sat up and seen the sandwiches Walker had made. She was already helping herself to one while watching Walker shine Midnightsʼ scales. ”Iʼm a little jealous since you are much better at that than I am.”

”Well, maybe you can catch up to me then. It just takes practice.” The thought that Walker could teach this skill to everyone using the educationist title skill later would be his saving grace. He started to form a plot in his mind to slowly but surely teach this skill to everyone.

”Are you alright? You look a little...strange.” Su caught on to Walkerʼs inner evil laughter causing him to quickly jump back to polishing.

”What?” Gil had opened his eyes t see Su snacking. He stretched and yawned while staging a sandwich for himself. ”Thatʼs dirty. You were going to eat all the breakfast without waking me up?”

”I donʼt think you can look too betrayed when you are the one that snores here.” Walker couldnʼt help but throw a small hit at Gil Unfortunately, this talking woke up Remey.

”I was dreaming of creating a potion higher than a high tier. It was going to be a mana potion using the best never before seen herbs and I was going to be crowned queen of the world. But now Iʼm here...hungry...and with no rare herbs.” Remey would have definitely landed a hit on each of them for talking and waking her up if she hadnʼt grabbed a sandwich for herself and started t eat.

”Alright, all polished and ready for the day. Is Onyx awake? I might as well settle him as well.” Walker found Onyx to be by his side already. He had snuck up trying to maintain his secrecy. Onyx had decided that he would try and use the shadows better after watching Midnight and the dark spirit lately. It was just too appealing to sneak up and take an opponent down.

”Thank you, brother. I would like to look my best as well.”

The polishing continued until everyone had eaten and changed in to their gear to head back to the surface. It was finally time to head home.
