#215 Tattoo Recycle
‘System, I will subordinate the sirens to me.’
[Player ‘Restrous Man’ has decided to subjugate [C.High Road.Siren].]
[[C.High Road.Siren] Is subordinated to the player ‘Restrous Man’.]
[A [Subordinate] Window is newly created in the status window.]
[You have cleared the player-only quest [Grudge: Bloody Revenge].]
[A [Special reward] Will be given as a reward.]

When the system text appeared, a white line stretched between me and the siren.
[Huh… Heh… I don’t want to die…]
“Reel?”
Then I was able to understand the siren’s words. Are you curious about this?
Approaching the siren, I crouched down in front of her and spoke to her.
“Hey.”
[Heukheuk… I want to live…]
“Hey dude. Can’t you hear me?”
[Huh… Yes?]
Just as I understand the sirens, the sirens understand me too. Nodding her head, I turned to the Ice Queen and the nine-tailed fox.
“Rather than that, Ice Queen. It looks like this place is organized, but shouldn’t we go find the heroes? I saw earlier that they were flying like a kite with a string off.”
“Oh right!”
“Ah! Come to think of it, Wind Line fell into the sea!”
At my words, the two women thought of flying heroes and wind lines.
“Then, Ice Queen, take care of the heroes and Gumi… No, the lady over there can get a wind line.”
I was going to call her a gumiho, but she hastily changed it to a lady. Why would she hide her pretty face? Because she doesn’t want to reveal her identity.
Originally, a psychopath knows well what a psychopath thinks, but a masked person knows well the mind of a person wearing a mask.
Nice…! A man like me, I’m so considerate! How far will you ever be perfect?
‘… A perfect man except for his name!’
For a guy like me, except for my name, everything is perfect.
“Will you be okay alone?”
“Huh? Of course. Do you really think I’m going to lose to a dick like this? I’ll never lose to someone who loses to me.”
“Huh. Yes, that’s like you. Then I’ll ask you to clean up. Oh, that’s right! And I have something I need to talk to you about, so don’t go anywhere and wait! Got it?”
“Draw it. Go quickly.”
“Huh.”
“Windline-sama!!!”
With a plop-!
That’s how the ice queen jumped into the sea to save the heroes and the gumiho to save the wind line. But it’s so dark, can you find it? Wouldn’t it have already drowned?
‘Well, the gumiho will take care of it.’
Now that the watcher is gone, we can move on to the main topic.
“Hey siren.”
[Yes…]
“Do you want to live?”
[Yes… I want to live… It hurts…]
“This.”
Seeing the sirens weeping pitifully made my heart ache. At first, she tried hard to kill her, but when the sirens became mine, she was very sad.
“Anyway, you bastards have no conscience. It hurts a lot to make such a kind siren like this…”
[… Yes?]
The siren looked up at me with bewildered eyes.
“Pax! Are you not covering your eyes?”
[…
The siren covered her eyes. Oh Hong? Are you really blind?
‘It looks like he’s really following my orders.’
Siren… I got a very good weapon.
“Do you want to live as a siren?”
[Black… Yes…]
“You mean that?”
She took a deep breath and shouted to the siren.
“She says then she wants to live!!!!!”
[I want to live! I don’t want to die!]
“Okay? Then go.”
[… Really?]
The siren’s eyes widened in disbelief.
“Yes. You are mine now anyway. Oh, but can you come if I ask you to come?”
[Yes? Yes…]
“You can’t hear my voice if you’re far away. But you can come?”
[My master and I are connected… If you think you’re going to talk to me, I can hear you.]
“Ohhh? You mean? If you’re lying… You know?”
[That’s not a lie! It’s real!]
Threatening her by slashing her throat with her thumb, the siren hurriedly said: Well, since the system that can be called absolute law said that the sirens were subordinated to me, it must be true.
“One more thing. Aren’t you seriously injured? If you return to that state and get caught by another monster, won’t you fall behind?”
[… That’s right.]
“Hmm… What is it?”
In any case, hero cubs are cubs with no morals. How dare you make my siren look so hideous! Later, you will receive a reward combined with the one you saved the Valencia Association President. Certainly!
[I…]
“Yes why?”
[My mother’s heart…]
“Your mother’s heart? Ah, the siren’s heart?”
[Yes… If you give it to me… I can recover right away…]
“You want that?”
[Poem, if you don’t like it, it’s okay not to give it to me! Please save my life!]
As I frowned, the siren shook her head and shouted urgently. I shook her head with that big head, and I smelled like I was riding with the wind.
I took out the heart of the siren from my inventory and threw it at the siren.
“Old.”
[…?]
“What are you doing? Don’t take it? You say you need it?”
[Are you really giving it to me?]
“Yes. You take it.”
To me, the heart of a siren was just pretty trash. Where do you mean to write a song that comes out only when you sprinkle seawater? It was better to use it to recover the Siren who became mine than to keep it in my inventory.
Although Elise liked the Siren’s heart quite a bit… I’ll have to give her something better later. What should I give you? Um… Me too?
‘As expected, the best present for Alice!’
[… Black! Whoops!]
“Hey, why are you crying all of a sudden? Where does it hurt?”
[Oh, no… It’s just… I love it…]
“…I see. Anyway, hurry up and go. It’ll be a headache when the Ice Queen and the Gumiho come back.”
[Yes.]
The siren moved her mouth and swallowed her siren heart.
[Ah, ah ah…]
Then an amazing thing happened.
The skin, charred and fried by her lightning, peeled off on its own and new flesh began to sprout. Besides, the feathers on her body also became lustrous and fuller. One of her eyeballs, which had been destroyed by her, was also returned to normal.
“And…”
Siren’s heart, this wasn’t pretty garbage, was it a recovery elixir?
After her recovery, Siren became the same as when she first appeared. No, she’s stronger than ever. She ate the siren’s heart and it seemed that it wasn’t just that she recovered from her injuries.
[…
After her recovery, the Siren stood tall and looked down at me.
“… Are you looking down at me now?”
[Oh no!]
Frightened by my words, the siren hurriedly fell on her floor. Hmm! As the system contributed, I don’t think he will ever betray me.
“Anyway, go now. When I call, they pop up.”
[Yes! Thank you for saving me, Master!]
“Oh.”
Whose family is the daughter of someone, her personality is very bright.
[Ah! And Master!]
“Huh?”
[This is a reward for showing mercy to me!]
“Pay?”
My mouth watered at the word of return. Didn’t Heungbu become very rich after treating the swallow’s leg and receiving Mr. Park? Could it be that he wants to give me Mr. Park too?!
After all, people have to be merciful… Huh?
[Woweeeee!]
“…”
Contrary to my expectations, Siren started vomiting in front of me. Iron Puduk-! What Siren vomited was White Night, whose entire body was covered in sticky liquid.
[This is the master’s subordinate, right? I’ll give it back. Then I’ll go. Thank you for saving me!]
“…”
The siren nodded at me, spread her wings and flew away toward my house.
Siren that bastard… Will she kill me now?
*****
Tuk-tuk-!
“Hey! Are you dead?”
“…”
“It’s not like he’s dead because he’s breathing. Doesn’t this bastard also have a really long string?”
I hit the White Knight’s head with my foot to confirm that he was alive. Perhaps because he definitely has good psychic powers, he was fine even though he was carefully chewed and swallowed by the Siren.
“Should I just kill him?”
Ice Queen and Gumiho went to rescue the heroes, and now I was the only one who was fine on the beach. Killing the White Knight and putting the body in the inventory constitutes the perfect crime.
Besides, do you have something like this?
[Player ‘Restrous Man’ has decided to subjugate [C.High Road.Siren].]
[[C.High Road.Siren] Is subordinated to the player ‘Restrous Man’.]
[A [Subordinate] Window is newly created in the status window.]
[You have cleared the player-only quest [Grudge: Bloody Revenge].]
[A [Special reward] Will be given as a reward.]
[You have obtained [Tattoo Recycling].]
I thought the [Special reward] Was a siren.
But no.
[Tattoo recycling].
This was the [Special reward] The system text said.
So what is tattoo recycling?
To put it simply, it could be said to be a system to easily increase experience.
Currently, the psychic powers used by the psychic people I killed, or sent to study in the United States, are engraved in the form of tattoos on my body.
The tattoos were so thick that the whole body looked black!
If you have a superpower like me, you can use it to increase your experience. However, there are many superpowers in this world that have the same effect, but with different names. What’s even more fucked up is that superpowers with different names are applied as different superpowers.
So it was very difficult to raise experience points, and my body was sloppily tattooed.
However, as long as the tattoo recycling system was in place, there was no need to increase the experience.
To make the tattoo recycling system easier to understand, I will give an example.
Among the tattoos on my body, there is a 7th level [King of Giant Scorpions] Superpower. But who did you kill and get this from? Well, that’s not important, pass.
Anyway, by recycling this giant scorpion king, it is possible to increase the experience of body enhancers and other superpowers.
The experience you can get by doing that is a whopping… 0.7%!!!
Yes! The tattoo recycling system was an efficient piece of junk!
You can use the EXP equivalent to 10% of your psychic level to increase your psychic experience. And! A whopping 10%!
Therefore, if you kill the white knight who turns on the seizure button when you see me, and get [Superman’s second coming] Superpower, it means that you can get 1% experience!
“Special reward is a piece of shit. Don’t kill me.”
In fact, he had no intention of killing the White Knight.
The White Knight is the core force of the Hero Association. His death shakes the balance of Dark City.
Even so, the number of S-class superpowers is overwhelmingly villainous. Even if the S-class villains did not unite, their respective forces were not at a level that even the Hero Association could recklessly promote.
What I want is an environment where I can play, not a city of chaos where strict villains flirt. I had no intention of destroying the barely maintained balance with my own hands.
“Ah, let’s just tell the kids I’m fine…”
Through the mouth of the alter ego, I informed Yuna, Jina, and Elise, who were restless with my worries, that they had successfully repulsed the Siren.
Then the three women let out a sigh of relief-
“… Exorcism.”
-Naturally, Yasak was caught.
I’ll have to enjoy it as an alter ego and enjoy the 4some again later that I couldn’t because of Siren.
Because there are more important things than possum right now.
“If there is a succubus among villains, there is a flame witch among heroes.”
The flame position flew over there, right?
I headed in the direction where the location of the flame that had been swept away by the whirlwind flew away.
“…”
Then, I stopped in front of a man who had collapsed on the street and a boy who seemed to be the man’s son.
The boy passed out, leaning against his father, perhaps tired of crying or surprised to see the siren.
“…You saved me.”
He stroked the fainting boy’s head.
He would not have come to his senses if this boy had not cried when he begged the siren for her life. I don’t know this boy, but he saved me.
“How many heel points are there?”
Currently, the remaining heel points were all 5 points. This could not completely cure the boy’s father’s injuries.
“Miracle.”
So, I used the supernatural skill of the healer, [Miracle].
[Heal Points (HP): 5]
The heel point, which only had 5 points, was-
[Heal Points (HP): 1000]
– Completely recovered at once.
Of course, the effect of the Miracle skill is not simply charging a heal point. It was just one of the effects of the miracle skill.
As for the remaining effect… I’m not going to use it now, so pass!
When he used the healing skill on the boy’s father, his pale complexion returned to normal.
“Thank you, kid.”
Click-!
I took a camera out of my inventory and took a picture of the boy. This alone cannot be the reward for saving my life. So, I plan to repay you with more money later.
“Let’s see… Where is our Flame-chan~?”
I moved my steps in search of the location of the frame.
