Chapter 72: Your Will Is My Command
For the next hour, Hannah found the peace of exploring a cavern system under the city an interesting and welcomed diversion.
She and Zarian had spent three days crawling through the Devouring Librarian Dungeon. The last battles were mighty, epic, and draining. She’d nearly torn her mind apart to sabotage the obelisks.
Now her spirit was renewed. She had new toys to play with. She couldn’t stop from using her cube maker skill.
She pointed at a spot and drained material rapidly into the skill item’s mouth. Just like that, she formed a square ditch that was six feet deep, nine feet wide, and twelve feet long.
Upon her whim, the Cube Maker reversed its suction mode to unload and create. Quickly and surely, Hannah started to form a bridge over the ditch.
She watched as little stone cubes spat out from the skill item’s mouth. The little cubes assembled into steps going up, and then into a stone plane, and finally into steps going down again on the other side of the ditch she’d created.
The cube maker could work from a distance, but not too far. It was faster when she moved with it in hand.
The only part that bothered her was how she couldn’t mess with the cube maker directly using her runic abilities. The System wouldn’t allow the adventurer or ‘player’ of its Star System to mess around with the actual system runes.
One day, I’ll dig into you, Star System.
