In Loki's Honor

We went to the sitting room and I recognized the guest immediately. At this point, it was not a mystery anymore. I formed a mouth between the edge of my pages.

"Greetings, Loki of Asgard. To what do we owe the visit?"

The Norse God stood from the armchair. "I wish for some Honorcoin fruitbread. The original one, freshly baked."

Barbara seemed confused but she assumed it was some sort of code.

"I need to fetch the baker, then."

"Certainly. I would love to chat while she bakes."

I suppressed the curse.

I shapeshifted into Rosewise and paid to use the [Umbral Workshop]. Taking the ingredients out of my storage, I started kneading the dough.

"This dough takes forty-eight hours to leaven."

"Certainly. Please go on."

I said nothing else as I opened the dough, cut it into strips, added the fillings, then rolled it, and applied egg yolk to the top. Then into the oven, it went.

"The System needs a third Administrator. With Wyxnos gone and Tuisto being what he is, I don't want to be the only one burdened by the woes of this Realm anymore."

"Why now?"

"Two new [Demon Lords] were summoned since you killed the last one in Virturia. The Gauntlet that protected this dimension from incursions is no more. The Pantheon is pressuring us to appoint Galbarar to Wyxnos's place. Would you rather let him take the position?"

Galbarar was the one who placed Rosalinda inside Pandora, expecting the woman's soul to betray me and take over the [Wisp of Creation]. For a long time, I trusted him but now I trusted none of them.

"No. But what will it cost me? I'm not leaving Barbara."

"And neither am I asking you to," Loki said.

I sighed in relief. Barbara too. I continued, "Okay. What about the [Demon Lords]?"

"Just mentioning. You can go there and fight them but honestly, it might be a fun adventure but won't do much good in the long run. The idiots will just summon another one. You could finish the job of five thousand years ago and burn the other half of the continent until it is all glass. At this time, unless we purge everyone who knows how to summon demons and remove any record of the action from this world, it is a Sisyphean task."

The last two bastions of the fight against Demons, Ackerton and Atlantis, were very, very pressured. The whole Scorched Continent had descended into a hive of tyranny, demon worship, and villainy. Life there was even shittier than in Apricot's time.

"Wait, this isn't a new development?"

"No. They've been building their strength for a few centuries now. In secret. Oops," Loki grinned. "I guess I should give a spoiler warning."

"What do you want, then?"

"I told you. I want to appoint you as the new System Administrator. You can keep playing at being a book if that's what you want. Stay down here as a mortal. It's just that we need someone to break ties whenever Tuisto and I disagree with something."

"And what will this cost me?"

"I need you to perform a service for me, in a future life. In exchange, I'll give you a great boon in your time of great need."

Loki usually had a permanent smug and amused grin plastered on his face. But now he had the smuggest grin ever.

"And I assume you won't tell me what service or what boon in advance."

"The service is not something you'll reproach, and the boon is exactly what you'll need in the future. I promise on my honor that I'm not shortchanging you."

"Can I—"

"No. Sorry, you can't abuse your powers as an Administrator for your own benefit. Break the dragon lady's curse on your own."

"What if I am needed and currently unable to suppress the curse?"

"Tuisto was the one who came up with the solution. Here, an upgrade for you."

Administrator Hotline was upgraded to,

Administrator's Red Phone (unique): You can send and receive messages between System Administrators. This does not reveal either of the party's locations. During the call, all curses on you are suppressed. You must be aware of this Perk's existence to initiate a call.

You gained the Perk,

Shrouded Status (unique): Your status can only be viewed with your permission. You can project titles you own at will or a fake Status for Appraise. This Perk cannot be suppressed.

Because of a Perk, the curse Blocked Status was removed.

I read and re-read the Perks. "Wait. Does this mean I won't remember the contents of the call after it ends?"

"Indeed. This is to keep the game fair on both sides. The Pantheon still hates you. But they are either too cowardly or too wise to strike while you are weakened."

Loki snapped a finger, "And don't worry about the demons. The Pantheon and I are planning to summon heroes from Earth to fight them. it will take another couple thousand years to come into fruition, though."

My muscles locked. "What? Are you planning to kidnap people from Earth?"

"No, no. We are getting them here via Virtual Reality. They will control puppets from Earth. Given the time dilation of one to one thousand between here and there, they can experience months of life here in each gaming session. Five hours on Earth is the equivalent of more than two hundred days on this world. And we are using full dive technology. They will play for days at a time. Each day they play is two years here.

"So, will you take my deal?" Loki reached out with his hand.

I shook it. "Fine. I'll do that task for you, but if it is something I disagree with, I'm out of it."

"That's perfectly fine. As I said, it won't happen anytime soon. I just needed you to greenlight it. There are many things I need to get started before that happens."

I opened the oven, "Your bread is ready, honored guest."

*

*

Loki vanished after eating the Honorcoin fruit bread and giving praise to the baker. Barbara and I were left alone in the drawing room of her castle.

"There's little time before the hour is up," I told her. "Is there anything you want to ask?"

She grabbed both of my hands and stared into my eyes. "I was so afraid he was going to take you away."

"He needs me to cooperate. And if he wanted me gone, he would've done that ages ago. But this means we need to move our schedule up. We might not have all the time in the world. Nethe is going to evolve. And then we are pushing for level 100. Both you and me and the Aspects. We need to be as strong as we can be."

"Okay."

The hour ended. I was back to being a book mimic.

Back at the library, I opened my Status and went through my Proficiencies.

Appraiser (2/7). [ 360 ]. You can see System information about a target.

Item Information: You can get detailed item information, including hidden data.

Subtle Appraise: Reduce perception tests to detect your appraise attempts by (P/3).

Obfuscate Others: Select (P/10) friendly units no further than (P) meters from you. Appraise attempts against them suffer a (2*P/3) Penalty.

Appraiser will be the first Proficiency to come out of the Curse. Everyone that's someone in this world has it. Kids are trained to use it, to obtain information about monsters and people. It is ridiculously hard to level after a point because you need to Appraise harder stuff as you level and there's no such thing, usually.

Blades (2/7) [ 705 ]. Add (P)% to accuracy, (2*P)% damage with blades.

Master: Deal (P/35) d10 + (P/5) extra base damage.

Sharpened Edges: Increase critical chance and damage by (P/10)%.

Riposte: Increase Parry chance by (P/4)%. If you parry, gain an immediate attack with a (P/10)% bonus damage.

Duelist: When fighting against an armed opponent, you gain (P/10)% Accuracy, Evasion, and Damage.

Dual Weapon Mastery: When wielding a blade and another weapon, your blades gain (P/10)% more damage, accuracy, and parry.

Your blades now affect incorporeal or ethereal enemies. You gain (P/100) Strength, Dexterity, and Magic. All other effects remain the same.

Sword Dance: Wielding a blade is a type of performance. Add (P/20) to social Interactions. Increase observers (including opponents) reactions by (P/80) steps.

I mostly trained Blades to burn the Fast-Learning points. The ability I took synergizes greatly with some Perks.

Mental Mastery (1/7) [ 869 ]. Subtract linear (P) percentile points from the effectiveness of fear, pain, and mental debuffs.

Magical Circulation: You gain (P/4) base Energy.

Perfect Mind: Add (P/50) to all mental Attributes.

Perfect Spirit: Add (P/50) to all spiritual Attributes.

Improved Recovery: Increase all Resource recovery rates by (P/5)%

Prescience: Predict attacks (P/500) seconds before they happen.

Spiritual Enlightenment (U): Increase Ego and Soul by (P/75). Increase base Energy by (P/10). Add (P/5) to all checks to resist spiritual attacks.

Mana Control: Increase Magic by (P/50).

Technical Focus: Select one Technical Proficiency to gain (P/10) bonus to its score, up to (P). You can change it only once every month.

This Proficiency is mostly a source of bonus points. But Prescience is worth every point that goes here.

Spellcaster (2/7) [ 702 ]. Your spells gain (2*Proficiency)% effect and (P)% accuracy.

Cursebreaker: Add (P/4) to Magic to break curses.

Summoner’s Control: You can memorize (P/25) summoned monsters. You do not need a Core to summon these monsters. Add (P/5) to all Charisma tests to control your summons.

Wizard's Mind: Gain (P/50) to all Mental Attributes.

Spirit Caster: Gain (P/50) to all spiritual Attributes.

Grandmaster: You gain (P/2)% damage and (P/10)% cost reduction.

Master Summoner (U): Summons are considered (P/20)% lower level for purposes of cost. They have Attribute values (P/20)% higher. You gain (P/100) Charisma and Magic.

Conterspell: Add (P/5) to Magic to counter spells. Your counterspells take (P/15)% less time.

It should be in the thousand if I hadn't lost it back in Tinarturner's life. Spellcaster is another Proficiency that will quickly come out of the curse. With my heinously high Magic Attribute unlocked in future lives, they will probably become spellcasters.

Physical Mastery (2/7) [ 726 ]. Gain (P/5) extra base HP.

Accelerated Regeneration: Increase your HP regeneration rate by (Endurance x P/20)%.

Instant Healing: When under (P/20)% of the maximum, recover (P/10)% of the maximum. Cooldown 30 minutes.

Regeneration Boost (Automatic conditions): Increase HP regeneration by (P/10)%

The counterpoint to Mental Mastery.

Growth Items: For a cost of (200 - P/10) points, items you enchant grow and gain (10 + P/50) extra points every (100-P/15) years.

Sentient Items was a wash. 80 points of Mental Attributes are too few to make a really smart item when divided by 3. I could make items with the intellect of an average low-level mage but what's the point?

Jeweler (1/7) [ 482 ]. Jewelry you craft and gemstones you cut are (P/2)% more valuable, intricate, and stylish.

Core Cutting: You can cut Magic Cores or their shards into gemstones. Increase Enchantment potential by (P/5)%

Potential: Jewelry your craft has (Proficiency / 5)% higher enchantment points.

Paired Jewels: You can make a single piece that can be split in two. Each piece keeps (50 + P/10)% of the full enchantment and is always treated as being (2*Proficiency) kilometers closer to each other, up to zero distance. The bearer of a jewel can sense the direction of the other piece.

Electrochemical Plating: Add a precious metal coating over a lesser metal, saving (P/5)% of the precious metal. The coating grants (P/10)% of the better metal’s properties.

Jeweler is basically the accessory Proficiency to Enchanter.

Leadership (1/7) [ 455 ]. Increase loyalty of people under your command or employ by (P/5).

Commanding presence: Up to (4*Proficiency) units no further away than (P) meters from you gain (P/75) Strength, Dexterity, Endurance, Mind, and Willpower.

Royal Quest: Add (P/2) Charisma bonus to force non-Royals to do your bidding. A successful test makes them comply. Your Royal order may be converted into a Quest. Spend [(100 - P/10) x Target's Base Level Exp] from your own Exp. The Quest that awards Base Exp.

Project Leader: When leading collaborative work, Add (P/10) to all team members' respective Proficiencies, up to your own Leadership Score. The maximum team size is (P/10) and they gain Proficiency (P/5)% faster.

Instructor: You can teach a group of (P/5) students on a Proficiency you have above 100. Students learn (P/5)% faster, up to your Proficiency score in the subject taught, and those above that, including yourself, learn at (P/20)% faster.

This one needs to grow. The bonuses granted are great and I needed them to become greater.
