Never Die Extra

Chapter 289

Evan D. Sherden, Makes an Infant Class (3)

“I’m here, brother!”

“Hi, Evan!”

The next morning, as promised, the two girls came to the Astray headquarters.

In terms of age, they were each 7 years and 2 years old, but there was not much difference in appearance. Perhaps due to her bloodline, Elizabeth had a better chubbier build than Eir, who was slim.

‘Sometimes, the Mahwa become adults in five years, depending on the entity… Eir probably grows much faster than humans.’

Her Mahwa blood must have been more dominant than the Elven, as elves develop later than humans. It made sense that Illoin was angry at Rose.

“I’m Eir! And you?”

“Elizabeth. You can call me Liz.”

While Evan was looking at the two children side by side, the children who recognized each other began to communicate without him introducing each other.

“How old are you?”

“Two years old!”

“Two years old? Me, I’m seven years old. Call me big sister from now on!”

“Come on, come on. From now on, you two will be in class together.”

Elizabeth also seemed surprised to hear that Eir was two years old. No matter how hard he looked, to Evan, they were like Irish twin sisters. He grimaced as he brought them in.

“Hmm…!”

“Haa! Hah!”

The members were already starting their usual training at the underground training area.

After mastering the skill level to some extent, one part of the training was stopped for a duel. It was to help grow these skills by mimicking the real thing.

“Vice-Commander, I’m coming!”

“That’s a good spirit… Huh? Oh, the ladies are here.”

“Oh, they’re…”

“Quiet, the vice commander is in charge of them today, so focus on our training.”

Shine, who first noticed Evan’s group, controlled the mumbling members and began training again. Meanwhile, the two little girls looked around the hall and were amazed.

“Wow, it’s cool and refreshing!”

“It’s called an air conditioner. I’ll put one in the mansion as soon as I’m done with a few adjustments.”

“Can you give it to me, too?”

“Yeah, I’ll put one in Eir’s house, too.”

The completed air conditioner not only absorbed heat, but also had the ability to control the humidity inside, making the headquarters of the Astray perfectly cool in the middle of summer.

“Come on then, shall we have some snacks?”

“I want to train first! My dad told me to come back strong!”

As they were still young, Evan planned to take things easy. However, Elizabeth quite firmly rejected the temptation.

‘Come back strong. What does father think of this place?’ Evan sighed and looked back at Eir.

“Are you gonna be okay, too?”

“Yes, I’m going to exercise hard.”

Children these days are very strong. Before Evan could even regain his memory of his past life, his only hobby was to just roll around and run around breaking pots in the hallway…

He shook his head, as he thought of his childhood in a long while.

“I can’t help it, let’s start with their skills… Diona, do you have it ready?”

“I’ve got everything set up here, Master.”

“Wow!”

The children were all excited to see various weapons lying on the floor of the training ground. All of them were real weapons that could actually hurt people.

It was a dangerous weapon for children to touch, but they had to do this to feel their skills strongly and grow more efficiently.

“It’s not normal in this world to let young children who are just entering elementary school deal with such weapons.”

Evan, the representative of ‘not normal,’ muttered as he began to hold the children one by one to check the aptitude of the weapon. First was Elizabeth.

“It’s not the sword…. There’s no response at all. So, it’s not a double sword or a dagger, either…… Alright, do you want to lift the shield? This isn’t it, either.”

Swords and shields were the most common skill of all kinds of cartoons, novels, and games. Why was it the most common? Because it was the easiest to handle.

A decent man would have some skills for swords and shields. Funny enough, even Evan had skills for them. There was no reason to train on the grounds because he knew there was a cap.

“Like your big brother, your skill is not normal. However, according to mother, you’re not light magic either.”

“Brother, I like this!”

That was when Elizabeth, with a bright smile, picked up the Mace that was laying on one side. Evan saw it and paused. ‘Now way her skill would lie within the Mace…?’

‘Damn, the blunt instrument isn’t so good though…’

Of course, blunt weapons were the oldest weapons in human history and had the advantage of being quick in early training as they were easy to handle.

As such, however, the higher the skill level, the slower the skill increased, and the harder it was to find a blunt weapon among high-level magic weapons, and the faster the limit came.

Evan intentionally left the blunt instrument far away so that Elizabeth didn’t have to lift it.

The skills of Damian, the first prince of the Silk Line, was of course a blunt instrument, but he was also strong because he had the aptitude for a giant hammer, which belonged to the large weapons category. Except for a select few of the strong, blunt instruments did not bring good results.

“It’s not like priests carry maces for nothing…’

It was a weapon that you could master without much effort. That was why most blunt instruments didn’t even have a cheat code.

Of course, there were several ways to break through it when you reached the limit and increase your skill level, so even if Elizabeth had a Mace aptitude, Evan could still train her to be strong…

“Wow, but I think it’s not enough.”

“…Really?”

It was good news. If she was as good as Damien and picked up the big hammer, then she would have picked a jackpot out of all the blunt instruments!

Even if it wasn’t a large hammer, she could still have a good aptitude. There was a stick axe, and a long bag made for infantry to deal with cavalry… There was also a morning star.

“This one!”

“…Wow.”

Perhaps she had read Evan’s concerns. Elizabeth picked up a Morning Star next to the big hammer. The stick was well over 1 meter long, and at the end of it protruded steel spikes. Evan thought this was serious, as she lifted it with ease. He thought about his karma.

‘I might have let her play with too much slime…’

Was that why Elizabeth grew up so stubborn, and no one could stop her?

However, Evan couldn’t forget about seven years ago, when Elizabeth was still suffering from Dungeon’s disease. Putting slime in Elizabeth’s hand had become such a matter of fact ritual, so to him, that was an extenuating circumstance.

“Yes, it’s not enough.”

“…Huh?”

Evan tilted his head. Not enough? She picked a blunt instrument and chose a morning star. What was wrong with that? Was there another subclass of the Morning Star?

“Brother, can you give me one more of this?”

“…One more?”

“Yes!”

‘At that time, I could only think of one possibility. No, but that’s…… really?’

“Here, I’m giving you this first to…”

“This is it!”

Elizabeth held two morning stars in one hand and looked very proud and satisfied.

Evan could feel it, too. The satisfaction you felt when you lifted a weapon that perfectly fit your skills. Now Elizabeth was feeling it.

“A double blunt?”

A Morning Star! Evan had no choice but to panic. The aptitude to hold two weapons was very rare and powerful in itself.

The disadvantage was that it was difficult to master.

‘That’s an aptitude no human has ever seen before…….’

If you were to go into the second half, you could see a high-ranking demon, who took the body of a stronger monster, rampaging with hammers in both its hands.

That was right. Double-blunt was a skill made for a villain—a monster! It was perfect for a villain, who laughed at players who were desperate in the face of the evil.

“And that’s what my Liz picked up.”

“Brother, this is me! I think this is the right one!”

With Evan muttering with a disturbed look, Elizabeth still smiling, easily swapped the two Morning Stars from her hands, swinging them about.

Seeing a seven-year-old smile with two spikes of steel made her definitely look like an outsider. However, she definitely was a human being!

“Do you really think that’s right? Can you really handle two of them at the same time?”

“Yes!”

“…Okay. Liz, you’re going to carry this weapon from now and will practice getting used to it.”

“Hehe, I’m already used to it!”

Elizabeth affirmed without hesitation. ‘If you are so sure, I can’t help it.’

Evan resigned and ordered Elizabeth to stand back, then Eir was called in.

“Eir, yours is probably a bow. Other than that… Oh, since you’re an Elf, maybe your skill is spirit related. Have you ever talked about that with your mom?”

“Yes, but my mom said I can’t deal with spirits right now. She said the spirits are really afraid of me because of the dark magic.”

“Huh.”

It was the moment when he learned another reason why Illoin hated Rose. At this point, Rose might as well be a life-and-death enemy of Illoin.

At the same time, Evan was also concerned about how to harmonize Eir’s magic in the future.…

“Well, shall we hold the bow?”

“Yep!”

Eir grabbed the bow given by Evan. But the next moment, she tilted her head.

“I had a slight tingling sensation, but I don’t know!”

“So it’s a bit unsure…… Alright, then let’s hold different kinds of bows.”

Although he didn’t have the Status ability, where one could look to identify the person’s aptitude, he had been working on finding the skills of different individuals for nearly a decade. In this area, he knew what he was doing.

However, the only conclusion he could get from giving her all kinds of bows, including longbow, short bow, angled bow, and even crossbow, was that she had a ‘vague’ aptitude for all types of bows.

‘She’s an elf, but her bow skill is ambiguous.’

He thought that saying this out loud would hurt Eir’s feelings, as he barely suppressed himself.

Instead, he thought about what would be right for her aptitude. Since there was a reaction to the bow, it would be a long-range weapon…

“…Could it be?”

At that time, there was a strong image that passed through Evan’s head. But it was right after he saw his sister’s ridiculous aptitude of double-blunt. So, this would be no surprise.

“Eir, can you try holding this?”

“Yep! …Wow!”

The reaction was dramatic. As soon as Evan took the weapon he handed over from his arms and held it in her hand, Eir’s round eyes opened even wider.

Evan couldn’t hide his really subtle expression. This was because the weapon he just handed over to Eir was a pistol.

“No one can deny that you’re Grandpa Bernard’s daughter…”

“But I still think it’s a bit subtle!”

“Yes, yes, we’ll also try the other kinds.”

There was no hesitation. Evan immediately took out all kinds of guns and made Eir hold them: revolver, musket, automatic pistol, sniper, grenade launcher, mini-gun!

“Okay.”

“Oh, is the minigun too heavy?”

“Master Evan, why is it so big when you call it a minigun?”

“Because non-mini people are supposed to use it.”

But that wasn’t all. Most who show good aptitude could find good results after practice, but they were not the highest aptitude.

Evan did not give up. There was no way that Eir, the daughter of two heroes (even having received Rose’s influence), would end it this way!

“Wow, I’m like Liz Unnie, too!”

“You’re cool!”

They had finally found it.

Eir had two automatic pistols, one in each hand.

In other words, it was a double pistol.

“In pairs, as if they planned this…”

“Evan, do I look good? Do you think this looks good with me?”

“Yeah, it looks good with you…”

‘What should I say when I see a two-year-old child (although she doesn’t look like a two-year-old) running around with a double pistol? The double pistol is a skill that has never appeared in the game…’

Guns were already rare, and Bernard had held a machine gun, but he’d never used a double pistol…

No, he had once for an event scene.

“Is this possible, Master? Both of them are double-handed.”

“You’re the senior in this department, help me.”

“No, this is a stretch… this is different.”

Because it was a skill that had never been shown in the game, he, of course, didn’t know the training methods for both the double blunt and double gun. Evan wrapped his head, as he thought about having to teach these two girls with their unbelievable aptitudes.

It seemed like he had taken in two monsters rather than two beginners.
