My Talent's Name Is Generator Chapter 939 System Unlock

With a shift of my weight, both steeds surged forward simultaneously, their hooves churning the earth as they charged with lowered heads, their curved horns aimed directly at me. The ground vibrated under their assault, and the distance between us vanished with alarming speed, leaving no room for hesitation. I sidestepped at the very last instant, my foot skidding on loose soil as I twisted my body, allowing the first beast to thunder past me, the force of its passage mere inches from my skin. The second horse reacted instantly, its trajectory altering with uncanny swiftness, turning back towards me.

I thrust my sword upward just in time, meeting the impact as its head slammed against the blade. The shock coursed through my arms, driving me backward as my boots scraped the dirt, my balance precariously maintained.

A searing pain shot through my side, where the bound wound had re-opened, the pressure forcing blood to seep anew through the bandages. Yet, I held firm, adjusting my grip and angling the sword to deflect the force rather than endure it entirely. Seizing that moment, I pulled away, creating space as both creatures circled once more, their crimson eyes locked onto me with unwavering intensity.

This time, I refused to let them close the distance in a straight line. I retreated towards the road's edge, where the terrain fragmented unevenly into the forest, exposed roots snagging the dirt and small stones littering the ground. The lead horse charged head-on again, while the second angled slightly, attempting to cut off my escape. This maneuver, however, only made their movements more predictable. As the first horse reached me, I pivoted sharply around a protruding root, allowing my body to flow with the turn. The beast behind me, failing to adjust to the treacherous ground, stumbled as its front leg caught, disrupting its momentum.

That momentary falter was all the opening I required. I darted in close, my body moving in sync with the stumbling creature as I swept my sword in an arc across its neck. The blade sank into flesh, eliciting a heavy gush of blood. The creature emitted a harsh, distorted cry, its body convulsing as it fought to regain its footing, but I was already in motion again, denying it any chance to stabilize.

The second steed was upon me almost immediately, far too close for a full evasion. I twisted my body to the side, raising my blade as its horn grazed my shoulder. The movement strained my wounded side, sending a sharp jolt of pain through me. I dropped lower, letting its momentum carry it forward, and reversed my grip, driving the blade upward towards its vulnerable underside. The strike connected, though not with killing force. The creature reacted with savage intensity, its hind leg lashing out and catching me squarely on the side.

The impact sent me tumbling across the dirt, the world spinning as my breath was knocked from my lungs. Yet, I forced myself upright before a second assault could land. Both beasts were still mobile, though their movements were no longer as fluid. The first horse staggered, blood pouring from the gash along its neck, its attacks losing their previous precision. The second turned again, its breathing labored, the wound along its underside bleeding sufficiently to hamper its speed.

I steadied myself, my stance adapting despite the pain that throbbed with every micro-movement. My grip tightened on the sword as I watched them approach once more. This time, I yielded no ground. I advanced as they closed in, meeting their charge head-on, exploiting their diminished speed. As the first horse lunged, I shifted just enough to avoid its full force and plunged the blade deeper into the already gaping wound on its neck, pushing through the resistance until its body faltered completely, collapsing onto the ground with a heavy thud that kicked up a cloud of dirt.

The second beast followed instantly, its attack lacking its earlier accuracy. I moved into its charge rather than away, slipping past its horn and bringing my blade down along its flank with all the strength I could muster. The blow forced it to falter, its legs buckling as it crashed to the ground, its body trembling as blood pooled beneath it.

Both creatures lay vanquished on the ground, wounded and bleeding, their initial ferocity reduced to labored movements as they struggled to rise.

I remained standing, panting heavily, the sword still clutched in my hand, my side burning with each ragged breath. Without a moment's pause, I stepped forward and swiftly severed the necks of both beasts, one after the other.

A crisp chime echoed within my mind.

I focused, and the notification materialized.

"Remarkable… that's genuinely practical," I whispered to myself, moving away from the two downed steeds. The air was heavy with the scent of spilled blood, and the instant I created some separation, the pent-up exhaustion struck. I leaned against the closest arboreal giant, allowing my back to nestle against the unrefined bark as I slowly descended, one hand automatically pressing against the material binding my midsection. The agony intensified now that the skirmish had concluded, radiating with each inhalation, and I could feel the moist warmth seeping through the cloth where the flow hadn't completely ceased.

"Let's ascertain if the shop provides a solution," I voiced softly, directing my focus inward to re-display the interface. The system responded without delay.

A novel panel materialized before me, far more orderly than anticipated. A classification sequence unfurled sequentially, arranged with precision:

Recovery || Enhancement || Armaments || Abilities || Utility || Influence

"Quite an extensive catalog..." I mumbled, then shifted my attention purposefully and chose Recovery.

The instant my selection registered, the interface transformed; the category expanded, revealing a fresh array of selections beneath, each explicitly itemized with its price and effect. Health Potion - grade 1 - 10 CP

Health Potion - grade 2 - 50 CP

Health Potion - grade 3 - 100 CP

Stamina Potion - grade 1 - 10 CP

Stamina Potion - grade 2 - 50 CP

Stamina Potion - grade 3 - 100 CP

"Ah, there we are," I stated quietly as my gaze alighted upon the most elementary option presented, and I opted for the Grade 1 Health Potion without hesitation.

The very moment the selection was confirmed, a subtle luminescence coalesced ahead of me, and a small glass phial materialized upon the ground, containing a verdant fluid that rippled gently within. I leaned forward, retrieved it, and uncorked it in a fluid motion before bringing it to my lips and consuming its contents in a single draught.

The liquid traversed my throat, initially cool, then imparting a spreading warmth as it settled in my stomach, and within moments, that warmth began to propagate outward, suffusing my being in a steady surge. The pain in my side started to recede, as if an internal mending process was actively repairing the damage.

In mere seconds, the injury vanished.

I reached down, unfastened the binding encircling my torso, and removed the blood-drenched fabric, inspecting the location where the laceration had been. Nothing remained but pristine skin. I wiped away the residual blood with the cloth, then discarded it nonchalantly as I propelled myself back to my feet.
