Another thing I knew was about the legacy weapon. Before, I was anxious to see what it looked like, only to have the same ver*ga I found in the temple appear between my hands, which made me throw it on the ground in anger.
But then I remembered that it had a shape-shifting ability. It's a pity I don't know how to use it yet, but what I cared about was an ability the spear had: the ability to copy a skill and allow me to have it, only with its range reduced.
The problem is that it needs some conditions to do so, which bothered me a bit. Also, it has a completion time of one month, the first time, but it's acceptable, since, to begin with, the amount of skills I have, even if they are not combat skills, is already above the average of this world and I will have more in the future thanks to the spear and Dual Synchro.

"My dear, we arrived at our first stop. You said you wanted to stop at this place for sightseeing. We'll only stay for a day and ship directly to the capital afterward."
In fact, I had specifically asked my stepmother if we could stop in this specific town for sightseeing. The reason was that here was a perfect person to test the use of the spear.
Luckily — or rather, unluckily for him — my alternate self knew that there was someone here with a very peculiar and useful innate Skill.
That would become the foundation of my own future plans. Even though my alternate self had done plenty of research and gathered a lot of information from the legacies, he didn't know everything.
So I had to put a bit of myself into the plan too — without changing the main objectives.
..
.
So the next day since we arrived in this city, Elena and I started looking for the person who possessed that Skill.
Honestly, he had never seen his face, since he liked to wear masks, but I have something that will serve me in this case and that is the 'Eyes of Lust'.
It is a skill that has many functions and, among them, one is to allow me to see the state of someone who feels lust towards me.
It's a strange condition, but it's not that difficult to do with my appearance, although it would be a bit tricky with women. My target was a man.
It was me, Elena and Tristan, who I asked to disguise himself as a simple servant so he wouldn't scare off the target, while Elena and I were normal.
We were walking among the slums, but I wasn't afraid, as I didn't think there was anyone more powerful than Tristan in this place, whom I still can't beat even with cheap tricks.
We were walking around attracting attention. At that moment, I was checking the windows of everyone who felt lust for me it was impossible that the target was not attracted to me since in my previous life he tried to woo me for a long time.
it was annoying and insistent plus very elusive so I couldn't get rid of it, well at some point it just disappeared, so I guess it died or something. It didn't matter.
As we walked, the place seemed more dangerous and less crowded.
At that moment, all of a sudden, we were surrounded by many people who looked like they looked stronger than a normal person, but as I looked at their windows I saw that none of them had more than two metamorphoses in strength.
Guided by someone wearing a mask and looking at his status window, I realized he was my target.
"Bingo."
A smile escaped my mouth as I saw the person I was looking for, but strangely the guy turned around and started running leaving everyone present not knowing why.
"Damn it, come on Elena we can't lose him, Tristan, take care of this, take your time and don't hurt them, you innocent people."
"Miss, wait..."
For what it was going to be it was better to keep him busy here, so I paid him no attention and started running after the guy who, although I saw that his rank was the same as mine, was very fast running among all the bewildered henchmen that I incapacitated as soon as they were in my way.
I couldn't lose him, so I used potions to improve speed and stamina while making sure I didn't lose him.
I thought I saw more skills, but I focused on the one I was looking for, but I feel that's the reason he's running away, but I won't let him escape.

POV: Antony
*****
I grew up in the slums of Lythoria, and that was all I ever knew. I always dreamed of exploring the world and seeing more than just these streets, but that dream felt out of reach. Survival was my only focus, day in and day out.
Then, I discovered I had an innate skill—something that people would kill for, something that could even attract the attention of the gods.
It was a moment of joy, but I quickly realized I had to get stronger first. Everyone knows that if you want to be someone, strength is the only thing that matters.
So, I started fighting anyone who crossed my path, even those twice my size. With strategy and my skill, I managed to win, and before I knew it, I was the strongest around, the leader of this part of the city.
I didn't mind doing shady deals or making threats—it's just how things work here. Offering "protection" when my gang was the only real threat in the area.
I could feel my dream getting closer, no matter what it took. In the end, it's all about survival of the fittest.

"Boss!!"
"what!?"
I's when one of my subordinates came running in while saying:
"Boss, there are two beautiful women who look lost. They are the most beautiful women I have ever seen."
"Ohh!"
I couldn't help but be intrigued at the information I was given. I followed him and from afar I could see two beautiful women accompanied by a man.
They didn't look like nobles as they were wearing common clothes, but for a moment I thought of the possibility that they were undercover nobles. But seeing that platinum-white-haired woman, I couldn't control myself.
I had to make her mine, even if I died trying. It was the first time I had ever felt this way. There was something about her that exuded purity and dignity.
I wanted to contaminate it with my essence. I didn't feel that way even for the black-haired woman next to her, who was as beautiful as she was.
So I gathered all my strongest subordinates and ambushed them. Strangely at the time I surrounded them, instead of being frightened they seemed indifferent and the platinum-white-hairedwoman was looking intently at my subordinates as if searching for something.
The moment our eyes met she showed a beautiful smile, I felt something wrong. I don't know if it's a skill, but whenever I get this feeling it's because I'm in danger and listening to her has saved me many times before.
So, seeing the woman's smile, I was not enraptured nor did I have time to admire it. Without hesitation, I turned around and started running.
I have always been confident in my ability to cum, so I had no doubt that they would not catch up with me, plus they had to take care of all my subordinates.
"don't run away I just want to talk huehue...."
Hearing her voice I looked back and saw how the woman followed me with a deformed smile that made me shudder.
Whether it was because she was still beautiful or for another reason, even though she said that I could see that her intentions were different.
I don't know what she plans, but what I did know was that if I got caught it was going to be dangerous and for some reason I felt cold between my buttocks.
"Come on don't be shy I just want to be your friend because you don't stop hueheuehue."
"With all due respect, my lady, your behavior is quite suspicious… aand that nasty laugh of yours doesn't exactly help.""
"...hey Elena tell me the truth, why are you angry, what have I done to deserve this treatment...?"
"...humm?.... breathe?"
"you didn't have to answer and even less like that, my heart is going to break"
"You must have thought so when you went on even though I told you I was tired..."
"..."
Behind her, the other girl followed her with a reluctant face, from the way she addressed her she looked like a servant, which increases the possibility that the silver-haired girl is a noblewoman.
but the way of addressing her is not proper for a servant girl, but I didn't have time to think more about the relationship of this pair of beautiful girls, I needed to escape.
I was faster, but I couldn't lose them no matter what I did. At that moment I decided to activate my skill even though it would spend a lot of mana it was worth it and so I created two other beings similar to me and they ran with me.
In a corner, where they couldn't see me for a moment, I blended in and we switched positions.
I sent one onto the roof of a building and separated from another at an intersection. With that they were likely to separate or, better yet, follow my clones, which was my innate skill.
"oh, Elena, it's the one that went to the right."
Or so I thought, but for some reason they kept chasing me as if they knew it was me from the start I didn't know what to do anymore and I felt the danger getting closer and closer.
While my speed was superior, my endurance wasn't as good. the chase lasted a while longer, but I couldn't take it anymore.
"What do you want from me, leave me alone!" I started yelling at them.
"Come on...haaah... we just want to talk...haaa... haaah..... why don't you stop and talk? Look you see in me that I want to hurt you"
'Damn, your mouth says that, but on your face there is nothing but bad intentions.'
I saw how she had also lost her breath and tried to form a smile to gain my trust, but all I see was a distorted smile with bad intentions.
I had no choice but to use a potion that was extremely expensive and worked to increase my speed temporarily.
I bought it in emergency cases of life-threatening danger and I didn't want to use it, but the closer they were, the colder I felt between my buttocks and chills down my spine.
So I couldn't take it anymore and drank it. I immediately started running mmore as fast.
