Tenfold Rashomon 1.0 Extra Edition is born?
What on earth is this???
Leo Bright suppressed his curiosity. With Skye nearby, experimenting with his new power on the spot wasn't an option.
Once they returned to their apartment, Leo took a shower, scrubbing away the bloodstains on his clothes. As he gathered his thoughts, he focused on the new ability he'd acquired.
Even though it was nearing two in the morning...
If it had been a few days ago, Leo wouldn't have paid much attention to the daily abilities he received. They seemed like junk, typically only glanced at after waking up, like sifting for gold in a garbage heap.
But the Beast's instinct from yesterday was surprisingly good, boosting Leo's confidence in future abilities.
Especially with a name so long and peculiar.
Even though past abilities with long, strange names had been practically useless...
Tenfold Rashomon 1.0 Extra Edition – allows for the rapid summoning of any size, type, or style of modern residential doors within one meter of the host!
An active, instant-cast skill.
Leo's eyes glazed over in confusion. A door? For residents? What?
Despite not knowing its purpose, the skill description echoed in his mind.
Leo rubbed his chin, coughed lightly, concentrated, and snapped his fingers—a simple gesture...
"Boom..."
A puff of white smoke appeared out of nowhere, catching Leo off guard.
The smoke was colorless and odorless, seemingly made of vapor. As it cleared, an exact replica of Leo's bedroom door stood before him.
"Uh..."
Leo stared at the door, speechless...
This was... interesting.
If he opened a furniture store, he'd surely profit. After all, it would be a business with no overhead.
But then again, his "modesty master hairdressing director's god-level ability" hadn't led to a business.
Which posed a problem!
Would he end up selling furniture?
Or perhaps develop an art gallery?
Leo pondered, this was a troubling dilemma.
"Wait a minute..."
"Are security doors included in residential doors?"
"And what about tempered glass doors?"
Leo's eyes lit up, and he quickly headed to the rooftop.
"Bang..." Another puff of white smoke emerged.
A 12mm transparent glass door materialized in front of Leo.
"Is it possible? Could this block bullets in a pinch?" Leo mused, realizing the potential utility.
He retrieved a fire axe from the stairwell and tested it against the summoned tempered glass door.
"Boom..."
A muffled sound echoed as Leo swung the axe with force, leaving only a white mark without damaging the glass!
"This must be from the finest craftsmanship," Leo marveled.
Temporarily blocking bullets seemed feasible. Unlike a solid iron security door, tempered glass wouldn't obstruct the view.
Yet, something felt off.
Leo circled the glass door, finally identifying the anomaly!
Wait!
There was nothing supporting this door, how did the 12mm glass remain upright? It hadn't even budged under the axe's impact!
What on earth???
Newton would be turning in his grave.
This defied logic, resembling a game setting where objects stood independently, without support.
Either it broke, or it stood firm.
Leo attempted to move it, but no matter how hard he tried, it wouldn't budge. It was as if the glass door was part of the building's structure.
He was baffled—the door could open and even lock, but not be moved.
How is this possible?
Would he need to chop up the wooden door in his bedroom?
And what about this sturdy tempered glass?
The fire axe barely scratched it. Would he need a Gatling gun or a missile?
This was a perplexing issue.
All signs pointed to a critical, fatal flaw in this ability!
That is...
It couldn't be used to open a furniture store! ! ! !
Sadly, Leo's plan to sell doors died before it began. A door that couldn't move wouldn't appeal to ordinary humans unless each customer requested Leo's installation.
Since it appeared out of nowhere, surely it could disappear the same way?
Leo tried several times, finally concentrating until the glass door vanished in a puff of smoke.
"It's incredible... While I can't open a furniture store, I might perform magic tricks. This appearing and disappearing act could be a career," Leo fantasized, a bit moved by the idea.
Then he chided himself for lacking ambition—how could he let trivial profits delay his dream of spreading the New Oriental Beauty Salon worldwide!
That's inadvisable!
The New Oriental Beauty Salon is the ultimate goal!
Leo continued experimenting.
The effective range was one meter around him, with the ability to scale doors between baby-size and adult-size pet doors.
Doors could even appear mid-air.
This resulted in an unusual possibility...
Could Leo summon doors constantly, stepping on them up to the moon? ? ?
Could he survive a fall by summoning a door mid-air to break his fall?
This ability... initially seemed unimpressive.
But upon further inspection, Leo found it riddled with bugs...
And he loved these bugs!
