Even though he was curious about who she really was, and what her true identity might be, Ragna thought he shouldn't think much about it, as eventually he would get to know.
As for whether she knew what he did last month to the trio, Ragna doubted if she was actually aware of it, especially since their corpses had been absorbed by the system when he was absorbing their abilities, he had also scanned his surroundings several times in case he was being followed or watched, but his perception detected nothing.
Not only was he confident that no one saw him, but he was also certain that even if they continued searching for their corpses for a long time, they would find nothing; however, needless to say, he was still suspicious about why she attested to his innocence.
Ragna doubted if she was doing so out of generosity; nevertheless, he decided not to think much about it, since they were going to meet after school anyway.
As for his punishment, thanks to the trio's death it had been cancelled, as there was no need to punish him anymore. He had also agreed to become a chef, after being continuously persuaded by Chef Gai; however, it was only part-time, as he still considered his main priority to be becoming an awakener. Nevertheless, Chef Gai was still very happy about it.
Thanks to now being a part-time chef, he was also offered a job by Chef Gai, earning up to fifteen thousand credits a month. With him now being able to earn money from being a part-time chef, Ragna could not afford basic amenities for himself, including clothes and food.
'I wonder how strong I have now become? With three abilities in my arsenal, two being D ranks and C rank respectively, combined with my base stats. I bet fighting a rank 4 or even a rank 5 isn't far-fetched for me.'
Ragna thought, as he stared at the system in front of him.
[Abilities, and Skills]
[Ability: Cursed one, ?????]
[Dash - Level 2]
[Cursed Regeneration - Level 1]
[Cursed blessings {Immunity to Toxin, Fire, Cold, Illusion - Level 1]
[Cursed one True form - Level 1]
[Cursed Fragment soul:4/????]
[Cursed abilities:Beast transformation, elemental manipulation, metal manipulation]
'Thanks to directly absorbing their curse fragment souls together with their abilities, I gained the memories of how they used their abilities and can naturally use their abilities. Although I still need a little practice, especially if I want to use the three at the same time.'
'Guess that makes me something like an avatar, huh? Though I wonder how the cursed kid is doing, I ended up sounding too harsh to him, instead of what I originally planned. Well, eventually he will understand just how cruel the world is.'
Ragna thought.
'I also need to be careful, if the system hadn't interfered with the muscle memory device, I might have been found out, and gotten into some serious trouble. It's barely been two months since I transmigrated, I don't want to be a criminal on the loose.'
Ever since that time, he hadn't heard the cursed kid voice in his head, although he still perceived it was still there, Ragna felt that it had decided not to say anything since it was still reeling in shock from the previous event, ragna also decided not to disturb it, regardless of what he did, he didn't regret his actions.
Another thing he noticed was during the previous month, thanks to absorbing the trio cursed fragments souls, the sleeping quest time had increased from ten minutes to fifteen minutes, just like he had guessed, although the increase wasn't much, Ragna couldn't help but wonder how many minutes or hours he would have to sleep when he absorbed more cursed fragments souls and their abilities in the future.
At the same time, he also noticed that unlike the cursed kid, the other three cursed fragment souls he had absorbed did not have intelligence and were simply mindless, which surprised him, besides their monotone voice constantly resounding in his head and causing slight headaches they could not think or show emotions from their voices like the first cursed fragment soul.
After thinking for a while, Ragna finally came to a conclusion which was, it was like that due to the fact he wasn't the one who killed the first cursed fragment soul, and had only transmigrated into the body, so even though he had taken over the body of the first cursed fragment soul, it still retain a certain level of intelligence after being absorbed by him.
At this moment, Ragna couldn't help but yawn as he had just finished doing the sleeping quest and soon got a notification message.
[Sleep for fifteen minutes, completed]
It was the middle of the day, and they had just started their extracurricular class, so Ragna decided to use some time to sleep.
Normally, he wouldn't have slept that early but since his head was beginning to ache due to the cursed fragment souls of the trio, Ragna decided to sleep since that was the only way to relieve the pain.
Of course, unlike before, Ragna made sure he wasn't sitting where the teachers could easily spot him, so he wouldn't be disturbed, as the students were too afraid of him to bother about him.
Some still thought he might have a link in the death of the trio, especially after the cafeteria incident, even though the news about him being involved has been debunked, some still thought he might be the one.
After the incident, things were still the same as before, except that the students were now more afraid of him; however, he wasn't bothered by it, as long as no one bothered him, he wouldn't bother about them. Secretly he hoped someone would come looking for his trouble so he would have another ability to absorb.
He still wasn't powerful enough; at the same time, even though he thought like that, he didn't want to be the one to initiate the bullying.
