There was a metaphorical silence all around them, Belize’s death naturally causing shockwaves among those who saw him perish.
A few moments after Belize breathed his last, a familiar ding sounded inside Althea’s head.
[Killed! Level 31 Wind Elementalist! +1100 Experience Points!

[Levelled up! Congratulations, you are now Level 11!]
Her eyebrows rose as she took out a few healing potions and handed half of them to Gochi. She allowed herself to rest on the roof, taking the moment to look at her stats.

Althea’s eyebrows rose.
It was powerful even though it was a bit difficult to activate. She had asked him about it when he first used his ability as an Alteran and found out that their half-orcs also had various unusual skills that they would begin to exhibit at a certain age. ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom
Gochi mentioned his old friends that he was with back in Hoskle. First, there was a half-orc named Baku, which was similar to tigers according to his description.
He seemed to have a roar skill that shook all the surroundings. It was an area of effect skill that could make everyone his level and below freeze for a few seconds at the minimum—longer if the enemy was weaker
Then there was Nana—apparently pregnant when they separated—who seemed to have likeliness to a rabbit-human hybrid. She had super speed skills far superior to human’s speedster types. She could also jump high and dig holes, apparently with speed superior to the goblins (not that Gochi knew of any Goblins, but that was what the rabbit told him).
Finally, there was Maomao, an avian half-orc, who could fly. Her skill was similar to wind elementalist of summoning strong winds with her wings.
She could also fly fast, though sadly her wings were clipped because she was too small to carry a man and was therefore useless with flight.
(Althea also noted that Gochi’s eyes softened at the mention of this one and her lips couldn’t help but twitch in amusement because a fox and a bird was an odd combination no matter what).
They didn’t have classes or skill levels like humans did, either. They just either had it or not, and it’d increase in proficiency the more they used it well.
There also seemed to be hereditary factors on the specific skill sets, wherein a child was more likely to receive a similar skill to that of his or her parents than any other skills.
This was why they wouldn’t ever receive inheritance from the World Knowledge because they wouldn’t have been able to contribute their own skills. Hence, Gochi never thought he would be a pharmacist in the conventional sense of the word.
With this, she could conclude that half-orcs, and of course orcs, must have a totally different power system than that of humans.
It seemed that different races had their own?
For humans, it was the elements (and also those of enhanced physiques her husband encountered before). For goblins, it was apparently an innate sense of special stones and other things on top of their digging skills. For beasts, it was their upgraded physiques, while orcs and half-orcs seemed to have something entirely different. What of the others?
…what of her babies? Why were their abilities so… different?
BANG!
Her eyebrows rose as she was pulled back from distraction by an attempted assassination. They probably thought a headshot could eventually get through if they did it often enough.
She looked down to see it was Fargo himself, who had somehow managed to hide between three guards and took advantage to shoot a large shotgun at her. It was probably the strongest gun they had right now. Too bad it was still useless.
Her emerald eyes were dark as she looked at him. She changed her mind, pulling back her Bellagio bow.
"You’re next."
